Broken promises ~ JJ Maybank ~ Sequel to Promises

Chapter twenty-nine ~ Bonfire

After my talk with Ms Mason I found the boys with our history teacher.

Mr. Sunn: Miss Thornton, I didn't see you in class last period?

All the boys turned to me confused.

K: oh erm, I have a note for that.

I hand him the note Ms Mason gave me and he looks up at me giving a concerned smile. Yet the boys still look confused.

Jb: where were you?

K: hey what are you guys doing in here? You haven't got history.

P: okay we'll come back to this later but we found out some news.

After the boys catches me up on the clues Mr Sunn gave them we went home since school was over.

Finally at home, pope started reading Denmark Tannys diary.

P: this is from Demarks diary, "august 15th set sail from Port-au-Prince on calm seas. Came upon the Spanish ship San Jose on fire. The entire deck was aflame. And we could here the screams of men trapped below. The Spanish captain cared about only one thing, his valuable cargo, the cross of Santo Domingo and countless hats of gold. Once the cargo was on board we went to help the crew, but captain limbrey ordered us to pull bayonets and not let and off the Spanish crew on board. He robbed them and left them to die."

Jj: so it didn't go down of Bermuda

Ki: and it was a limbrey stealing shit again.

P: this diary proves that both the gold and the cross of Santo Domingo were on the Royal Merchant.

Jj: why didn't we find it in the well then? I mean if Denmark was able to get this, like, bedazzled cross off the merchant to sure, why didn't he hid it with the gold?

K: because it was too big

P: your right

Me and Kiara high five.

P: he has to hide it someplace else.

Ki: but where?

P: right before he was hung, Denmark said he'd buried the treasure at the foot of the angel.

Jj: wait I thought this was about the key?

Ki: right, so what's the connection?

P: "the path to the tomb begins in the island room"

K: now I'm lost

Ki: what is the island room?

Jj: you no what helps me figure shit out?

Jb: oh boy here we go.

Jj: smoking beers, and drinking weed.

Kiara and Me look confused.

Jj: the ideas just pour out of me. If we just sit here and try to figure this out, we're gonna get nowhere. But if we get freative and go to this bonfire tonight,at be we get somewhere.

Ki: well I just got disowned by my parents and I'm the official member of the I have nothing to lose club, members being Jj keeks and John b.

K: just you left pope.

Jj: pope you in?

P:we're so close.

Jj: look look think about how much you could think if you just gave your brain a rest.

We all smiled as he finally said fine.

Jj: wait we gotta shotgun before we go.

K: traditional
