Later that day, there was news that hurricane Agatha was coming to Outer Banks. John B and Pope had their surf boards in hand. JJ and Valerie were laying on the pull out couch when John B turned to look at them. "You guys coming?" John B asked. JJ shook his head and shuffled on the couch trying to get comfortable. Valerie looked up at the two boys. "Yeah. I'll watch, but I'm not surfing." Valerie smiled as she climbed over JJ's body and joined the two boys. They ran out to the beach. "It's a double overhead out there, bro." Pope was further behind John B and Valerie. "Double overhead?" Pope asked as the three looked at the sign in front of them that said the beach was closed. Valerie crossed her arms as her long, brown hair flowed in the wind. The rain was already soaking her hair as the thunder rumbled. "Those aren't surfable waves, bro." Pope stood next to John B, wanting to back down. "You act like he's not going to do it." Valerie yelled over the thunder. "Says who?" John B laughed as he gently pushed Pope and ran to the ocean. Valerie chuckled. John B cheered while he ran. John B quickly went into the water.
"You going to just stand there?" Valerie walked backwards, towards the ocean, looking at Pope. Pope shook his head. "I'm gonna head back. My dad is probably wondering where I am." Pope shouted over the thunder. Valerie nodded. She had already informed her parents she was staying at the Château. Valerie turned around and looked at the water barely seeing John B as he went further and further. Valerie laughed as John B tried to get a surfable wave, but kept falling. Thunder kept rumbling. It was like the waves had suddenly stopped and weren't as high as they were. Valerie saw a boat far off. She noticed John B looking at it too. "John B!" She shouted from the beach. John B quickly paddled back to the shore. "What was that?" She ran to him. "I don't know. Whoever is on that boat is something else, I'll tell you that. Let's go back." John B smiled at the girl as they ran back to the Château.
Once back, They headed inside to see JJ had fallen asleep. John B walked to his room as Valerie grabbed a change of clothes. She quickly changed before walking back to the pull out couch and laying beside JJ. He shuffled in his sleep, but didn't wake. Valerie sighed as she turned away from him and fell asleep.
"Yo, JJ, Val, you been outside?" John B slapped JJ's leg. JJ was half awake as he layed his head against the pillow. "I have polio, bro. I can't walk." JJ whispered. Valerie rolled her eyes from her spot on the bed. "Val?" John B asked. "Nope." She responded from behind JJ. John B sighed as he walked outside. JJ groaned before getting up and walking to the fridge, grabbing a beer. He walked back over to Valerie and lightly shook her. "Come on, princess. Can't stay asleep forever." JJ whispered. "Shut up." She responded, muffled from her face stuffed in the pillow. JJ sighed as he walked outside. "Agatha did some work, huh?" JJ shouted from outside. "Yeah, she did." John B shouted back. Valerie stayed on the couch for a little longer before sighing and getting up. She walked outside to see John B and JJ by HMS Pogue. "What about the DCS? Wasn't that today?" JJ asked. Valerie yawned as she walked up next to him and looked at John B.
"Nah, they're not gettin' on a ferry." John B replied, throwing branches out of the boat. "Come on, think about it. It's God tellin' us to fish." John B looked at Valerie and JJ. A little while later, JJ, John B, and Valerie were on the boat looking at what the hurricane had done to the town of Kildare. "Uh... Good morning!" John B waved at some people who were on the docks. "Sure hope Guffy's boat didn't sink. He doesn't have insurance, dude." JJ commented. "Yeah." John B nodded. "Hi, Miss. Amy. You guys get through it?" John B asked. "Still here." Amy replied with a smile. Valerie stayed quiet, still slightly asleep. "She totally looked at me." JJ replied with a smile. "I saw it." John B replied. "Jesus." Valerie whispered, rolling her eyes at the two boys. JJ turned to her with a smile. "Jeez, look at this place." Valerie said to the two boys as she looked around. "Agatha, what did you do?" JJ whistled. "She is a crazy lady." John B said. "Hard-core, dude. Hurricane surge." JJ said looking around. John B nodded. "Yeah."
