(Y/n's) POV:

Since we needed to move, fast, we were already trying to get on a tour guide boat. Or something like that. They didn't have enough time to explain to me. Obviously, we had to be super sneaky about it.
So we were whispering and asking people if they'd heard or seen a 'Jose' guy. I'm pretty sure it was the guy linked to Neville and the others. Nobody knew who we were talking about, we thought we were never gonna find him until John B wandered down a dock and came up behind a random guy.
The guy was Neville.

As we were about to board the small motor boat, John B reached for some money. To be honest I don't think he would've had any anyway. And I was right. He turned to me with a sort of 'oops accident.' face. If that makes sense.
But when he did I sighed and searched around my back pocket.
"Oh...He already paid." Jose grinned, holding out a small wad of cash. "He as in..." John B hesitated. "Your friend."
Me and Sarah glanced at each other, we knew that it wasn't right.
Who was he? "-he's waiting."
"Come on, follow me. Over here." Jose said. Just then, I heard John B. breathe out heavily. I looked at him but something else caught my eye. More like someone else.
"Hi, honey!" Ward mother fucking
Cameron. He was standing with a crutch and waving. I wondered what he was doing to get a crutch but honestly, I couldn't care if he had his eyeballs cut out and still breathing. "I told you-Do you ever even listen?!" Sarah marched up to him. When she did so, my dad pulled me and John B in.

"What the hell is he doing here?" Dad growled. "I don't know." Me and John B jinxed.
"You don't know?" Dad got angrier by the second.
"No, I don't.no."
"How are we supposed to know?"
"You don't have a clue? The smallest idea?" Dad started nudging John B. John B did the normal thing and stepped back.
Then Dad stormed through us and towards Ward. Ward noticed and straight away put his hand out to protect himself. In all of this nonsense, I was just worrying about how much time we had left before Singh and his men found us.
"Wait, John. Listen to me. Listen to me!" Ward shouted.
"You tried to kill me, you son of a bitch!" Dad shouted, grabbing Ward by his collar."You have every right to be upset."
"I'm not upset. Who said I was upset?!" They both continued to argue as if we didn't have a schedule. Me and John B caught up with Sarah. We kinda reminded me of being the kids of fighting parents...only, like..Step dads? And stepkids?

"HAVE YOU SEEN THE THREE AMERICANS?" I'm pretty sure all three of us heard, followed by a.
"HEY, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN. LISTEN UP!"
"What do we do?" Sarah panicked. "Singh is here.Shit."
"No. We gotta go.Now."  I rushed to Dad, attempting to stop him.
Sarah and John B followed behind me. "You threw me overboard!-" I interrupted Dad by grabbing his shoulder. "Dad. Shut up! Singh is in the market, and we need to leave...Unless you guys want to continue to argue like absolute sado's." I scoffed at Ward.
Dad huffed and dropped Ward.
"Shit." Dad chanted.
John B and Sarah made a hurry to the small boat. Me and Dad caught up as we heard more yelling and clashing.

When we all got in the boat and covered ourselves, it was already leaving.Ward.Ward stepped into the boat before it got any further away from the deck.
"Dad?-no! What're you doing? Get off the boat!" Sarah stammered. "Singh is dangerous. You're over your head!" Ward had a lot of nerve saying that. "Damn it!" Sarah whispered. Me and Sarah we both ducked down beside each other.
When the boat had left we were all silent.

"Guess it's just us..." Sarah spoke.

———

I couldn't stop thinking about what the others were doing.
What if they were captured by Singh? What if something really bad happened to them?
If so, I wouldn't be able to stand the fact that I was meant to be with them.

•••

We made it to some sort of separate island. If I'm honest, Jose could've taken us to Yucatan and I wouldn't have noticed. I mean, JJ would've. Dad was about to explain the situation.
"Welcome to El Tesoro, Bird, Birdie," Dad said.
John B didn't look bothered. "We'll hole up here for the night. Move out at first light." We stopped in view of a mountain.

"Somewhere up there is the dig site and El Dorado. With that letter and this gnomon, I think we got a shot. You, you and me." He put his arms around me and John B who were at either side of him.
"And Sarah, Dad." John B added.
Dad sighed. We could both tell that he didn't want her to be a part of this. "She ain't done the deep dive like we have. And I don't trust anyone with the last name of Cameron." Dad spat.
"Dad, she lost almost everything just so that we could get the cross. And she doesn't even trust Ward so why would she tell him anything?" I defended her since John B couldn't find the words to.
"And I almost lost myself! You almost lost me!" Dad argued back.
I sighed and looked the other way. I genuinely couldn't deal with him when he got sensitive.
"Just you and me."

———

John B and Sarah were sitting off together. I didn't know what my dad and Ward were doing as I couldn't be bothered to check. I was too busy trying to find a signal so I could get in touch with JJ. This boy was impossible to get a hold of anyway. I had rung him and messaged him both around a good hundred times. I couldn't even tell if it was sending though.
If anything happened, I didn't want our last interaction to be hiding and running. I huffed and decided to take a break since my head was aching. I slipped my phone into my back pocket and slung my backpack over my shoulder again.

I dragged myself over to John B and Sarah. "What you guys thinking?" I asked, obviously hinting about our dads. "I don't trust him." Sarah scoffed and shook her head.
"Doesn't seem like our dad trusts you or Ward either, so~" John B hesitated to say.
"Well that's just a bit obvious, don't you think?" I shrugged my shoulders, earning low breaths from the two. "Yeah, I gathered that anyway."
Sarah said. "-I don't blame him. Not after what my dad did to him."
