"Okay so if we find it how are we getting it up?" Brenna asked as the group all stood spread out around Pope's fathers boat as they made their way through the marsh.

"Haven't thought that far yet," John B sighed.

"Of course not," Brenna rolled her eyes.

"Alright, JJ, pin it here!" John B called up to the blonde behind the wheel.

"Roger that!" JJ replied.

Brenna, Kiara and Pope all stood beside John B as he started to lower the drone into the water, "Alright ladies and gentlemen," he looked at his friends.

"To going full kook," John B smiled as he let the drone hit the water.

Kiara and Brenna kept track of the drone as it traveled lower and lower into the water, while John B and Pope didn't move their eyes from their screens following the drones every movement.

"Guys, storms rolling in," Brenna called out while the wind blew her hair out of her face and the boat rocked, water splashing up the sides.

Kiara and Brenna shared a look of worry.

"JJ, hold it steady!" John B called.

"I'm trying!" JJ called from behind the wheel.

John B and Pope kept watching the screen, calling out instructions every once in a while.

"There's too much current!" Kiara called, holding onto the rope, "We're gonna loose it!"

Brenna helped the curly haired girl hold onto the rope as the boat continued to crash against the waves.

"What you got, Pope? Come on, man! What do you see?" John B begged, hoping for anything to give him hope the ship wreck was there.

"Nothin, a whole lot of nothin," Pope sighed.

"You should be right above it," John B pushed his hair out of his face.

Brenna watched the two boys, anxiously chewing on her lip as they all continued to do their assigned jobs.

"I'm at the bottom!" Pope exclaimed.

"Come on," Brenna whispered coming to stand on the other side of Pope, staring at the screen also hoping to find the shipwreck.

"Oh, good god," Pope sighed as Kiara also came to stare at the screen which was filled with exactly what they had been looking for.

"You're kidding," Brenna smiled at the screen.

"See anything?" JJ asked.

"It's the royal merchant," John B sighed happily.

"Oh my god," Kiara smiled.

John B cheered as he and Pope started to scream with excitement. Kiara pulled Brenna pulled into a hug, jumping up at down as they celebrated.

After celebrating they went over the spot where the wreck was more times then you could count, but there was no sign of the gold.
