"guys, we're coming up on Freedman's Church. it's the church Denmark built for all the slaves he freed." Pope pointed out the window passing by the church.
"there it is, Angel Oak." Kie says pointing out to the tree.
"oh, shit! tide's coming in." John B stopped the van as everyone looked out the window.
"hey, wait a second. look. they already came through here. those have to be Limbrey's tire tracks. guys, we gotta go." Pope says.
"mmm, what do you think, chief?" JJ asked his best friend.
"i'm thinking it's looking a little dicey." John B answered.
"yeah, i'm gonna have to agree with that statement." JJ added.
"okay, clearly, they made it. no?" Kiara asked motioning to the road.
"in a two-wheel drive? i don't know about that."
"why are y'all acting like you're not gonna do it anyways?" Sarah said as John B and JJ turned to her, "like when have y'all ever done the safe thing?"
"she's got a point." John B turned around holding the steering wheel.
"speed is your friend here. so, put her down in second and hammer down, brother." JJ held on tightly.
"stick to the ground in the middle." Pope tells John B.
"all right, ready? here we go. Bells, get off the floor." John B instructs.
Belle quickly sat besides Pope holding onto the seat, "okay, shit this is happening."
"come on, bro. punch it. speed is your friend. you're not going fast enough." JJ tells John B.
"i'm in second." John B responded.
"it's gonna slide." Kiara called out.
"you're fishtailing already." JJ pointed out.
"yeah, i know."
"alright not to put any more pressure on you, but if you don't make it through we'll be stuck here forever." Pope says getting in between the two boys.
"he's not wrong." Belle stuck her head in looking at John B.
"put your head back, okay?" John B placed his hand on Belle's face gently pushing her away.
