The Betrayal.

(A/N: Not much pogues today sorry x)

"He saved you...?" Sarah's brow furrowed. Her own brother had tried to kill her just because he disliked her, but he would risk crashing a truck with a hugs billion pound cross in the back for this random girl he'd hardly ever spoken too? What. The. Fuck.
"He did." Y/N replied quietly.
"Guys!" Kie shouted back at them, Pope was getting further and further away.
"Shit, Pope!" Sarah ran off, any excuse to get away and think about what just happened.
"Let's go." John B said, to JJ and Y/N.
The fact Rafe had saved Y/N shook JJ, he held her hand as they ran and panted, "Get your endurance up for our surf trip." He grinned.
Y/N smiled and nodded, panting too.

They followed Pope back to the church, on foot. They were heaving as they reached the big red door. Pope pulled on the handles, his heart in his mouth.
"Is it there Pope?" Y/N asked, jogging up to the others with JJ, "Pope?"
John B followed Pope inside, shining his phone's torch around the room.
"It's gone." Kie sighed.
Y/N and JJ ran through the door behind Sarah. Sarah turned, and started at Y/N. 
"We must've heard them earlier." Sarah said quietly in Y/N's ear. She though back to hearing those strange sounds outside the van earlier that day.
"Fuck." Y/N pierced her lips.
JJ ran forwards and kicked one of the cushions in a fury, "Fuck! Damn it! I didn't hide it well enough..."
Y/N rubbed his shoulder, "This isn't your fault."
"Damn it!" He shouted again.
Kie sat down on a pew and put her heads in the hand, while John B stood sadly behind her. Pope slowly made his way towards where the cross sat just hours ago. Sarah stood a couple paces behind him. Should she comfort him? Hug him?
"What do we do, what do we do, what do we do." JJ said over and over.
Y/N nodded, "We need a plan."
"How do we steal something that big?"
"And heavy... think, think, think, think, think." She paced.
They conspired in the corner together, muttering and pacing.
Sarah stepped back to a pew with Kie, running her hands through her hair. "I can't believe it." She sighed.
"We need a plan." JJ bit his nails as he paced, panting.
Y/N snapped her fingers, "Okay. Okay here. We get some kerosene tanks from the chat..."
"My dad's shop will have dynamite."
"We drive down to Charleston, and show this bitch who she's messing with!" Y/N finished.
"This is some bullshit y'all!" JJ shouted.
Sarah sighed, "That't not gunna help."
"You got any ideas!?" JJ snapped, "Please share with the class!"
"JJ." Kie said softly, "Y/N. Stop."
"We need a plan!" She argued.
"I'm thinking." John B told them, "Okay? We can't just blow shit up."
JJ shook his head.
Y/N threw her hands up, "Then what can we do?"
"I... don't know yet." John B sighed.
JJ turned to Pope, "I'm sorry."
Y/N lent on the side of one of the pews, looking upset. Kie and Sarah were sitting over the aisle with John B behind them. JJ shuffled over to Y/N, leaning on the back of it.
Pope had wandered to the alter, and ran his hands over it. "Denmark would've stood right here... Preaching. To all those he set free. A slave. The soul survivor of the royal merchant. He got both the cross, and the gold, and brought them both to shore and he used it to free every person who walked through those doors." He pointed to the aged red doors. And then he started to pace, walking slowly around the alter and down the steps, "He made a church. A family. A congregation.... A home." Pope looked over his friends, sitting at the pews and listening intently. "And the Limbrey's took everything from him. They sicced dogs on his wife and kids, and when he tried to get their remains they hung him. Well I'm done. I'm tired of that shit. That is not how this is gunna end. We need a freakin win guys. I'm going to get my family's' cross." He walked past them, and out of the doors.
Sarah raised her eyebrows and smiled. John B bit his lip and looked down, nodding. There was a sigh across from him, JJ. Smiling to himself at Pope's determination. Kie pierced her lips together and shared a small grin with Y/N.
"You guys coming?" He asked them.
"Well if you put it that way.." John B joked.
JJ furrowed his brow, "Well maybe we should think about it, y'know?" His voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Pros and cons list?" Y/N suggested.
"Pros and cons..." JJ grinned, "Hell yeah we're coming Pope!" He threw an arm around John B and the pair of them half-wrested out the door.
Kie swept up her bag and stood up, "Let's get that cross!"
"Onwards ladies!" Y/N gave both of them an hand, and they left arm in arm.
