JJ's Pov

I got out of the car, closing the door slowly and carefully, taking in every second before I had to go inside, I stood there, just staring at the door, I could feel Kiara's eyes on me, I turned around to look at her again, then I waved slowly, then began walking towards the house. Shit, time to get beaten. I couldn't let it show, I couldn't let my friends know that I was getting beaten, it was getting worse, my Dad's getting angrier.

He's been hitting me harder and worse, more frequently. He's already beaten me up this week, and it's only Thursday. I looked down at my phone before opening the door, 10:48 P.M. Shit, oh no. Why did it have to be this late. No! He always hits me if I'm past 10 P.M.

I opened the door slowly, trying not to make any sound at all, I turned my attention to the drunken, passed out child beater on the couch, he had a floral patterned blanket over his legs, I placed my bag down on the floor, then started to walk to my bedroom.

"JJ." I heard a voice whisper from behind me, I turned around to see him, he was standing up slowly, placing an empty beer bottle onto the table next to him, he stood up straight, then walked up to me, grabbed my shirt with his fist, then pushing me up against the wall.

"Where on God's green earth have you been, Boy!" He raised his voice, punching me in the lip, I spat out a bucket load of blood, spitting more out as he punched my face more, he then pushed me onto the floor and began kicking my stomach, repeatedly. I curled up in pain, I winced in pain as he kept kicking my stomach and my face, I could feel the bruises coming. "Where were you! You're always out with those friends of yours, instead of spending time with your Family!" My Dad screamed, kicking me once more, before pausing, to catch his breath. "My friends are more of a Family then you are!" I used the little breath I had left to yell out those words.

"If there more of your Family then you can go live on he streets! And see if your 'Family' will let you stay!" He said, kicking me again, before picking me up by the collar of my shirt, then throwing me out on the front porch, he kicked me three more times, then slammed the door in my face.

Kiara's Pov

My phone buzzed, my alarm went off, waking me up abruptly. I decided to go to the Chateau, just spend some hours alone, thinking of John B and Sarah, I just needed to be alone right now and think. I got into my car, driving off to John B's house.

I sat in the car, in front of the Chateau for a few good minutes, I was acting like I expect Sarah and John B to walk right out of that front door and greet me, inviting me inside to look at yet another treasure map. But no, that was never going to happen. They were both dead.

I got out of the car, then walked up to his house, I entered the Chateau and proceeded to walk to John B's bedroom, I entered the room to see a person sprawled out on the bed, I then noticed his iconic blonde hair, it was JJ.
