(A/N: Okay so this one might be all a bit 'filler' but hey ho, here you go! ily!)

Ward and Rafe were, yet again, sat in a police station. This one on Nassau.
The pair of them sat there in silence recounting the recent events.
"That was them... wasn't it. That was her." Ward whispered to Rafe. His eyes were still red from crying.
Rafe rubbed the middle of his nose sighing, "It was her, yes." He said dryly.
"She's alive." Smiled Ward, nodding slowly. Then he turned to Rafe, "I don't know what the HELL you were doing though. Shooting a gun right at her."
"Yeah, I- I regret it." He wasn't talking about Sarah.
"Lucky she looked okay. Can't be shooting a gun-"
"I hit them both."
Ward stopped talking, and looked at him in alarm. "What."
"I hit Sarah. And Y/N." Rafe snarled. 
Ward felt his heart beat faster as everything fell into its old place. Sarah good, Rafe bad. He looked around to make sure no one could overhear them and lent in close. "You shot Sarah?"
"I was trying to hit John B okay? So we could take them back with us."
"What do you mean THEM? A troublesome Pogue is of NO use to me Rafe I want my DAUGHTER BACK!"
"THATS ALL YOU EVER WANT!" Rafe shot up. "HER. IT'S ALWAYS SARAH! WELL MAYBE I WANT TO FOCUS ON WHAT I WANT FOR ONCE!"
Ward didn't want to attract attention and saw officers outside looking in.
"Sit. Down." He hissed.
"It was an accident... They got in the way." Rafe said- but he lied. He didn't care who he shot and John B was the riskier option. 
Ward rubbed his face and took a sharp breath inwards, "Is she okay?"
"I did not mean to shoot her." Rafe replied robotically.
"Okay. Okay. Okay." Ward was processing this information slowly. "I'm sorry."

"But. I don't care that I did."

It was then Ward saw the sociopath he had made. "What did you say...?"
"If Y/N died, well that's the only girl that's helped me..." He stuttered, "Feel stuff. But Sarah? She never liked me." He made a face and shrugged.
"Rafe... Rafe that is your sister."
"My sister?"
 "Yes your sister!"
"The- the one who, the one who stole from us? The one who ruined some perfectly good kooks? The one who had her boyfriend pointing a gun at us?"
"You need to shut your mouth."
"She's gunna kill out family don't you realize that?"
An officer returned before Ward could reply. 
"Sorry for the wait." He said, "We have a photo from a tourist. Can you verify?"
There on the phone screen, was Y/N, bleeding out. Slumped against a wall held up by John B. And with them- Sarah. Clutching her arm with red-stained hands.
Ward took the phone and put a hand over his mouth.
"Is this them?"
"That is my Sarah." He began to tear up again.
Rafe snatched the phone. 
Ward remembered Y/N awkwardly jumping for Sarah and pushing her in the car. He hated seeing the force- but now he saw why. Maybe this Pogue wasn't so bad.
Rafe bounced his leg anxiously, seeing what he'd done.
Ward looked to the officer, "She was kidnapped, and she was brainwashed by this... He's a very disturbed individual. He's very very dangerous. You can see the girls are hurt here..." He looked at Rafe, "Can you please find them for me?"
"We got the plates on the truck, we got photos. We'll get 'em. And your stolen property." And then he left.
Rafe looked at Ward, "She saved her."
Ward nodded, "Yes. She did. We owe her now Rafe. But that doesn't mean you're off the hook Rafe. Sarah could be dead right now..."
"...and?" He glowered up at his father with dead sunken eyes.


Kie's worried mum, Anna, was lecturing Kie on the white porch, "Baby, no, you can't go to Charleston on a school night." She said sternly.
"But this is finally my chance to clear John B's name!"
"Baby--"
Anna was cut off by her husband, "What does it mean now to clear John B's name?! He's dead!"
"Mike..." Anna said softly.
"He's dead!"
"Michael!" Anna stood with an angry look on her face.
"You have to accept it!" He pointed at Kie.
"Stop it!" She shouted at him. He did and turned away.
Anna sat down with Kie gently on the porch banister. "Baby, listen to me. I understand, that what you're going through is incredibly difficult-"
"Do you?" Kie snapped.
"Baby I do. All we're trying to say is that we're worried 'cause your spending all your time with these boys."
Kie scoffed at her, "God mum they're not just some boys I found off the street!" She raised her voice and walked away from her mum.
"I know that they're not! I'm just saying-"
"They are my BEST FRIENDS!" 
"I know that-"
"Since kindergarten! What's left of my only friends."
"I understand that but you are not a little girl anymore Kiara-"
"I'm a pogue mum." Kie grabbed her bag, storming off.
"No." Mike mumbled.
Anna jogged after Kie, "Actually, you're not Kiara! Because you live on figure eight! Don't walk away while I'm talking to you!"
Kie didn't stop.
"Kiara! You think that because you hang out with the cool reckless kids that it makes you a Pogue. But it doesn't! You haven't had to sit through horrid storms in thin shacks with no food or electricity! You have no IDEA what it takes to be a Pogue!"
"I'm still one of them!" Kie walked around the corner of her big weather boarded house, wishing she had a smaller porch right now. "You're so worried about me being a pogue because you got pregnant with a pogue and then had me."
"Kiara-" Mike followed after her too.
"What a tragedy!" Kie threw her arms up in the air.
"Kiara! Seriously? That is not fair." Anna started shouting louder, "STOP IT! DON'T WALK AWAY WHILE I'M TALKING TO YOU TURN AND LOOK AT ME RIGHT NOW! I am so SICK of this SHIT! Every single time you get in trouble you try to stir up the pot between us. Become like Y/N!? Get kicked out, live the pogue life. Well I am not having it anymore!" She looked... furious. 
"Maybe I want that! Maybe when Y/N comes back I'll crash with her!"
Anna scoffed, "when she comes back..." she crossed her arms and sighed, "well okay. I'm gunna tell her."
Mike nodded, "Tell her."
"Tell me what?" Kie made a face.

JJ and Pope watched from the car, 
"They're taking it really well." JJ pierced his lips. 
"mmhmm..."
JJ looked around at the car they were in, "How'd you get this rig anyway? Because I know your old man didn't let you have it."
"I undid the intake valves on the carburetor, made it start pinging."  Pope replied, still watching Kie and her parents. 
"And now you're just gunna take it to your cousin Jeff's house..." Nodded JJ. "Just gunna get it fixed..."
"Crash overnight." The two boys chorused. 
JJ smiled, "I think I'm rubbing off on you Pope. Lying to your old man, stealing his truck. Kinda sounds familiar."
Pope threw him a look.
JJ put his hands up, "All right that was a sore subject, my bad."
"I'd say we have about 18 hours before he absolutely loses his shit. So as long as we get it back before then, we're good."
"Nice nice..."
"Oh my GOD!" They heard Kie whine, "Boarding school!?"
"Its just an option-" Anna rushed after Kie as she jogged off. "It could broaden your horizons baby, get you out of OBX!" 
"I'm not going to boarding school!" She shut the gate behind her.
"It would give you structure Kiara!"
She waved them off with the back of her hand, not turning back. "They're not my people!"
"Look at your life right now!" Shouted her father. "Look at your life!"
JJ opened the door for Kie to get in.
Kie shrugged and raised her eyebrows while piecing her lips, climbing into the car.
"It's good to see y'all Mr and Mrs Carrera.
(A/N: Kiara Carrera... cool cool cool cool...)
Pope poked his head out the window, "I uh, ma'am. Sir. I... I promise to have her back at a reasonable hour. And safe."
Kie glared at him, "What are you doing."
"Kiara listen to me. If you wanna go you can go but if you don't come back at the proper time then go and wait for Y/N like you want to. Live with her then see what happens!" Her voice started to break.
"She's bluffin." JJ said. 
Kie stared at them for a moment, before climbing into the car.
JJ waved, "See y'all, have a good day."
"This shit. Would be so much easier without parents." Kie said.
Pope and JJ shared a look, this foolish girl had no idea. 


(A/N: I try to hard to like Kie but even JJ reacts awkwardly to some of the shit that she whines out  like that parent thing hes all like '.... oookay then...'
