Y/N POV

Forest

After interrogating Abel in a ruthless manner. Me, Clem, Violet, Carley and Scarlett walk through the forest Clem looks at the map, then puts it away.

Clem: Once we find the boat, we'll look for a way to sneak on board.

Y/N: Pretty simple.

AJ: It wasn't Tenn's fault.

Willy: Yes, it was! Mitch died because he--

AJ: Say one more thing about Tenn. I dare you.

Y/N: Quit that shit.

AJ and Willy both shut up.

Violet: Guys, look.

We sneak toward a boat in the distance. AJ looks at it through his binoculars.

Clem: You see anything?

AJ: The beach, um, a boat, and, uh... a wood street in the water.

Y/N: That's called a pier bud.

AJ: Pier.

Clem: Okay, let's spread out and focus on those areas. Keep your heads low.

We split up. Mom goes to Violet and Scarlett goes to AJ.

I pick up a horseshoe and Clem looks at me funny.

Clem: Why?

Y/N: Why not?

Clem: Dork.

I whisper into her ear.

Y/N: Don't be so mean... Mama Clem.

Clem blushes and I smile.

We then look at the boat.

Clem: I've never seen a boat this big before.

Y/N: I have.

Clem: When?

Y/N: A year before the world went to shit my family went to Hawaii to visit pearl harbor and I went aboard the U.S.S Missouri.

Clem: What's that?

Y/N: It's a WW2 battleship that's really fucking big.

Clem: Cool.

We talk to Violet and mom.

Clem: You ever seen this boat before?

Violet: No. Marlon kept us confined to the safe zone. Pier leading up to the boat? It's our only way in and out.

Y/N: Well, let's see what else is down there.

I look through the binoculars. I look at the raiders.

Y/N: There are a few on deck. A couple others on the pier. Could be more inside.

Violet: Looks like they're well-armed, too.

Y/N: Wait! I see Louis!

Carley: Abel wasn't lying. This is it.

I examine the entrance.

Y/N: I can see an entrance...

Violet: I saw that, too. It looks like there's a door at the other end.

Y/N: There's a small opening at the top of those closed doorways. AJ and us know how to deal with those.

I inspect the pilot house.

Y/N: They're probably keeping them bellow deck.

I examine the pier.

Y/N: The pier has plenty of cover on it. If we're careful, we can sneak in undetected.
