SICUT CERVUS

September 14th, 2010

We were heading south as we were getting closer to our final destination. Everyone seemed to be looking at Chris differently. I didn't quite understand why. Reed deserved it. I mean, who cares if Reed wasn't actually gonna turn. I would've done it, too

"Hey, Nick. What did you want to be when you were younger?" I asked. Nick looked at me. He then tried to think about it

"I'm not sure. I don't think I really cared. I was too busy getting high, I guess" Nick said

"Oh, is that so?" I asked. He nodded. I walked up to the control room where I saw Madison, Victor and Luis all staring at the waters in front of them

"How's this gonna go?" Madison asked

"Luis will take the Zodiac over to the boat up ahead of us where his contact-" Victor was cut off

"Miguel" Luis corrected

"Miguel will accept payment and then we'll be on our way to beautiful Baja" Victor said

"Okay, stop. Stop here. That's close enough" Luis told Victor. Victor stopped the boat. Luis grabbed his rifle and then began to leave

"Good luck" Madison said. Me and Luis made eye contact. I stuck my tongue out at him which he returned before he left

"How do you say 'asshole' is Spanish?" Madison asked Victor. I chuckled as Victor looked at her

"You don't. You grin and bear it" Victor said before he looked through the binoculars

"No, no. Luis, get back up here" Victor said which confused me

"What's going on?" Madison asked

"Why are they coming towards us?" Victor asked as Luis walked back in

"What do you mean, they?" Luis asked as he took the binoculars from Victor. He then looked through them

"There are two of them. Tell me one of them is Miguel" Victor said

"Yeah, the one at the wheel is. The other guy I don't know" Luis said

"Madison, get everyone down below deck. You need to hide" Victor told Madison. She rushed downstairs

"Luis, give me your gun. Y/n, stay alert" Victor said

"Aye aye, Captain" I said

The others were hiding in the engine room. I was relaxing on the couch as our two new friends began talking to us

"I like the boat, it's very nice. I'm extremely impressed with your wealth. How much did it cost?" The man asked as he smiled looked at the boat
