WC: 1,938
"Five Kildare teens who went missing nearly six weeks ago are now reported alive, safe, and back on Kildare Island."
"And now a live update from the Sherif's department."
Shoupe looks into the camera and at the crowd, "Yeah after six weeks, the five teens that had been missing from Kildare County have returned, been reunited with their families, most of them at least. We're still waiting for details about their journey, but I'm sure they have quite a tale to tell. We also got word that the father of one of the teens, John B Routledge, who's been presumed dead for a year now, has also returned alive and well. Wonders never cease. Right now we're just trying to get those kids settled back into school, with their families. They've been through a lot."
"The teens were down in the Caribbean with another Kildare teen, Sarah Cameron, the daughter of disgraced real estate magnate, Ward Cameron, who confessed to the murder of Sheriff Peterkin two months ago. All the teens back, safe and sound on Kildare Island, and John Routledge back from the dead. That's about a good as a result as we could hope for."

Sarah sits down, " When I went back to Tannyhill, Rafe was on the phone with Ward, and he just kept saying, 'my thing, this is my thing,' he had to be talking about the cross."
"Absolutely," Pope nods.
"And he's coming into Wilmington tonight at eight o'clock. And it's being shipped by train to Raleigh from there, but this is our chance to get it back."
"You get any other information?"
Kiara says, "Uh, Sarah got the cargo number."
"Ok, well that's a start."
"Yeah."
Bella leaned over and looked at the paper.
JJ leaned against the dartboard, "I mean they're definitely fencing that shit off as we speak. So we should probably get a move on."
"Sarah, you hear from John B?" Pope asked.
"No, I mean, he's probably off somewhere with his dad. But the problem is they have the Twinkie."
"Our transportation. I could ask Heyward for the truck."
"Uh, what?" JJ looked at him, "Yeah, that's gonna go well."
"I know, but we have no other options."
Bella spoke up, "Why don't we take my Jeep? It'll fit all of us."
"But will it fit the cross too?" Kiara asked, "Jeeps don't really have trunk space."
Bella sighed and ran a hand through her hair, "Um I'm sure we could come up with a rigging to put it on top? I mean... we could figure it out, right?"
