The four teens looked over the fence as rain poured from above them.

"Nice camera," JJ said looking at the big camera, "Where'd you dig up that relic? Why don't you just use your phone."

"Well first of all, I like my antique electronics." Pope responsed, "Second of all this is a telephoto. It allows me to get a close image from far away."

"Lord of the dorks." Kie said.

"I like your vintage camera Pope." Lucy whispered. "It's cool."

"Thank you freckles, see someone gets it." Pope stated, "and for definitive proof of witness payoff we're gonna need quality glass." Pope told them.

"There he is!" Lucy whispered pointing out..

The Pogues all watched, anger bubbling inside them as they watched Ward Cameron run into the building that was in the process of being built.

"Lucy get down." JJ pulled her down.

"And there's Gavin." Pope said as they watched the two men run inside.

Luciana hair was sopping wet, her banana curls now looking like waves. Her eyelashes drip with raindrops every time she blinked, "Where are you going you son of a bitch?" She questioned.

"No no no! I'm losing them! Shit!" Pope exclaimed. "Where's he going?"

"Hold on."

They looked around until JJ whistled causing them to look, "Yo! I found something, come here."

They went to him, he pointed to the ladder, we can see them from up top. They climbed up, "hurry we don't wanna miss anything!"

They crouched down at the ledge, the blue store light making them glow blue. "You rolling Pope?"

"Are you getting it?" Lucy asked.

"Yeah , yeah I see them." He answered as he directed his camera to the men on the roof across from them.

"Ward just handed Gavin something." Pope informed them. The other squinted, trying to see better through the rain. "I think it's a duffel bag."

"Guy I think this is a payoff." JJ said.

"Gavin doesn't look happy about something. It looks like he's yelling at Ward."

"Why?" Kie asked.

"I don't know. But he sure look mad." Pope responded.

"Holy shit." Lucy whispered as the other reacted the same way. They watched as Ward and Gavin started to fight.

"Ward's kicking the shit out of Gavin." Pope told them.

"What are they fighting over?" JJ asked.

"What going on?" Kie added.

"I don't know I'm trying to see."

They watched as the fight ended. "It looks like Wards leaving." Lucy whispered.

Suddenly Ward turned around, and a gun shot went off. They gasped as another one went off, Lucy and JJ unknowingly grabbing each other's hand.

They watched as Gavin stumble back before they sat down behind the wall to hide. "Oh my god. Oh my god." Pope panicked.

"What the hell?" JJ stared in shock.

"No no no, that did not just happen." Kie whimpered. "What is going on?"

Lucy's stomach twisted in horror, "Okay, Pope tell me you caught that."
