"Oh, shit, they found the truck." Kie panicked as the six drove back the way they came. After heading to the church, they found the cross gone with two people in mind of who had it.
"Just relax. Relax." John B spoke quickly back at her.
"Yeah, relax." Rio agreed, reaching forward to hold Popes shoulder and JJ's hand.
"Well, lookee here." Shoupe spoke as he walked over. Kie ducked down and hid slightly.
"Good evening officer." John B commented.
"Sheriff." Shoupe corrected.
"Sheriff. That's right." John B nodded.
Rio noticed Shoupes stare. "I know i'm pretty, but you don't have to stare."
"I've got two parents on a line looking for a girl that fits your description." he commented with a raised eyebrow. "Anthony?"
"Never heard of him." she pursed her lips. "I'm a bit offended you think I look like a boy though."
"I pulled the tags and I know who's truck that is." Shoupe said sternly as he looked around the van, shining his light in the back to find Kie on the floor board, "Hey! Kie, you drop your weed pen back there?"
"Found it." Kie nodded as she got up.
"Sheriff, I just wanted to say that this is all my fault." Pope spoke up, trying to take the blame, "She had nothing to do with this. I take 100% responsibility."
"Nothing to do with it?" Shoupe questioning in a tone of disbelief, "You wanna try that again? Your parents reported the truck missing four hours ago, and the keys were missing from the house. I'm taking you home. And you-"
He shined his light in Rios face. "You're coming with me. Talk to your worried parents on the phone before you make them sick."
Pope looked back at her. "I'll be okay, Rio. We'll come pick you up as soon as you call."
She nodded hesitatingly, leaning her forehead forward some as he kissed it. JJ squeezed her hand as Rio got out with Kie.
"I can take this one while you get her home." a woman office walked forward, Rio recognized her from Wards death scene.
"Thanks, Plum." Shoupe nodded. Kie hugged Rio tightly in the headlights. "Let's go girls."
"I'll find a way to break you out." Rio promised as they pulled away. "Don't let your parents walk all over you."
Kie let her go, going for Shoupes car. Rio looked over as Plum held the door open for her, letting her get into the back of the car. "Thanks."
"Sure." Plum shut the door, walking to get into the drivers seat. She didn't say anything else, nor did Rio, watching as she drove off the deserted road. Rio hadn't been from OBX, but she knew they only had one police station. So, when they passed it after a five minute drive, everything started to run together.
