The Fall

The Pogues had settled themselves at Rixon's Cove. The fire they had lit was sparking in front of them. Pope and JJ had sat on one log, while Rebecca, Kiara and Y/N were on another. Kiara was leaning into
Y/N who had an arm around her. "Wait, so are you not gonna even acknowledge... this?" Y/N asked John B while pointing to himself. The Routledge boy looked back at him.

"JJ told me earlier, so I had some time to process it." He told him. "But you're still one of my best friends, that won't change." He added. "He also told me about this." He said, smiling while pointing at him and Kiara huddled together. They both felt heat rose to their cheeks, as Y/N nodded in appreciation at his friend, before Pope spoke up. "Hey, guys, so like, my dad's already gonna kill me, so what's this 'mandatory meeting' about?" He asked JJ and
John B.

The two boys shared a look, while John B did finger guns at JJ. "Might as well tell 'em, man. Before we're gassed." JJ said to him. "You ready for this?" John B asked. No one responded for a second before Beca realised he wanted one. "Oh, yeah."

"So, the gold never went down with the Royal Merchant." He told them. Pope rolled his eyes at this statement. "Oh, here we go again with this." He said, tired of it. "No, wait, just hear him out." JJ defended John B. "It's been here the whole time." John B revealed. "It's on the island."

"Are you serious? Oh my god." Kie said. Pope was still unsure. "I'd like to voice my scepticism." John B stood up at this. "I'm sure you would, Pope. Can I please present you with my evidence." Pope waved a hand at him. "Proceed."

"Alright, so, in my backpack, I have a letter from Denmark Tanny." He told them. Y/N was confused. "Who?" "Denmark Tanny was a slave, who survived the Royal Merchant wreck." He replied, before handing the letter to Kie, as she sat up. "Okay, slaves weren't mentioned as crew members, on the ship. My dad, he found the complete manifest. That was his big discovery. So, Tanny, used the gold, from the Merchant, to buy his freedom."

Kie handed the letter over to Beca, as John B was talking, who then handed it to Pope, whistling to get his attention. "After that, he buys a farm. Drumroll please." Kie, Beca and Y/N did as instructed. "And that farm is... Tannyhill Plantation." He revealed. Beca was surprised at his words. "Tannyhill?" She questioned him. Pope looked up at John B, not completely buying its

"Yeah, so, after that, he used his money to free even more slaves. And then he sold a shit tonne of rice, which pisses off all the rich white planters. And then, they decide to lynch him." He told them. Kie looked down at this statement. "So on the day they were coming to get him, he wrote a letter to his son, as a farewell. And in the last line of that letter, he used a coded message, about where. To find. The gold." He revealed, ending the story.

Kie, Y/N and Beca all looked at him smiling. "Where?" "Harvest the wheat, in Parcel 9, near the water." This didn't reveal much, and as Y/N went to question it, John B stuck a hand out to stop him. "Ah, there's no wheat. You see wheat, is code for gold. So the gold, is in Parcel 9, near the water." Kie let out a laugh of disbelief at this, as Pope finally believed him. "Holy shit."

"All we need, is an original survey map, of the property, and we've found the gold!" He exclaimed. Pope was shocked. "Ok, so, this might have a small chance, of possibly being true." JJ went over to his friend and lifted him up to hug him. "Woah, hey, fire, you're by the fire." John B informed him. "I'm so proud of you right now." JJ told him.

"Ok, so, what're we doing now?" Y/N asked. "Good question. So, Sarah Cameron is coming tonight. She's gonna bring an original survey map-" He got cut off by Beca and Kie. "Ok, time-out." "Wait, hold on. Sarah, why Sarah." Kie asked him. JJ looked down at this. "This is gonna be good."

John B stuttered over his words. "Uh, Sarah-uh, got me into the archives in Chapel Hill yesterday, and that's where I got the letter." Beca and Kie were shocked at this. "So you went on a little trip to Chapel Hill with Sarah Cameron?" Beca asked, with furrowed eyebrows. "Uh... yeah."
