"Guys?" Pope spoke when he looked over to the three. "There we go!" John B said very happy. "That looks like the painting from the island room" I whispered loud enough for everyone to hear. "I mean it's worth a shot right?" Pope commented.
"Okay Pope go for it." John B spoke out loud. Pope looked terrified and answered. "Hell no I'm not going in that thing with my hand. You do it." We all watched the fight between those boys. "Okay Kie you do it then." John B complains. "Excuse you? You wish man." Kie responded.
"Sorry. I... I went in the storm drain so..." She added on. "She did go in the storm drain." I helped her out. "You know what, I'll do it." JJ finally spoke after being quite for almost ten minutes. "He looks scared." Kie whispers to me. "I think so too hah." I whispered back.
"I'm not scared!" JJ defended himself. I smiled and started talking. "You seem scared." JJ smiled sarcasticly at me and hopped onto the Twinkie and went right inside of the sort of hole in the Angel's Oak.
"Wait.. There's something inside..." JJ starts to talk. "Wait..." He then chuckles before screaming the shit out of him. "Oh my god JJ are you okay?" I said while trying to pull him back out of the tree. He then started laughing and I rolled my eyes.
"JJ you asshole why the fuck?" I said giving him a little nudge. "Dude you for real scared the shit out of me." Sarah said while slapping her hand into her face. "Oh man, I've got all of you at once." JJ laughed.
"Oh, yeah, real original." Pope complained to JJ. "Wait, but seriously, there's something in here." He ignored Pope. He then took out a spyglass. "Give it to me right now." Pope said grabbing the spyglass out of the hands of JJ. 'HMS Royal Merchant'
"There's something on the ends." I spoke pointing there. JJ hopped off the van and took a look. "An inscription right there. Look at that shit." John B said. I looked over at where I saw some writing. "What does it say? I can't read that it's too tiny."
"You've come this far. Do not falter. The cross is on the Freedman's altar." Pope quoted. I thought about what Pope said before I could notice. I finally understood and yelled softly. "Freedman's altar." The cross is at the church!"
"What are we doing here, guys?" Kie spoke before walking inside the Twinkie. "Come on! We got it!" I said happy. We all put on our seabelts and just like before I was massaging J's head. "Are you okay?" I asked him and he softly opened his eyes.
"I'm fine and you?" He asked back. I just said I was fine too and continued massaging his blonde locks. We were driving pretty fast when all of a sudden, John B stops immediantly. "Ah, crap! The tide!"
"Oh shit, this doesn't look good." Pope complained. I look outside to see the road being filled up to water. "How deep is that shit?" I asked them trying to look closer. "I dunno. The road's gone." John B replied to my question. "Tide rose faster than I thought it would." JJ looked outside.
"Just a little bit.." John B said unsure about what he said. "Uh, John B, how high are the spark plugs?" JJ asked the brunette boy. "They're good, we're fine." He answered to the blonde boy. "How high are they?" I asked to make sure we weren't going to be stuck here forever.
"Uh, just above the taillight." I slapped my head and continued to talk. "Okay, so what's that? Three feet tall?" John B looked at me in my eyes and rolled them. "Yeah that's three feet Azaleà what now?"
"It can't be three feet." Kiara said softly. "Okay then what is the problem? I mean if it's not three feet then we're good right?" I asked. They all agreed to my comment and that was the moment JJ started talking again. "Yeah. Fasten your seat belts. Hold on to something. She'll make it."
