JOHN B

" It's not there." Pope said looking at the device.

" Look, just– just pull the drone up." I said. " shit."

" Look, we can do another pass. Recharge the battery. We can go back down." Pope looks at me.

" We've done it three times. There's nothing there." JJ says from afar.

" Shut up." Kie interrupts.

" What? It's true!" He turned towards us.

" The gold could be buried we don't know." Harper shrugged her shoulders.

" If it was there, it would've been found on the metal detector, okay?" I said. " Someone beat us to it."

" Or it was never there." Ocean mumbled.

OCEAN ROUTLEDGE

John B and I head back to the chateau on the boat. He was nice enough to help me of the boat. We both walk into the chateau to someone saying.

" Hey kids." said a social worker.

I turned around. Great it's DCS.

" You know, Cheryl, it's kind of a bad time for check-in." John B walks towards the table taking his backpack off.

" Not a check-in. We're here to take you guys." she said calmly.

" Today? Really?" I said with no emotion.

" It's just for a few weeks until your hearing." she continues.

" no, no, no. Cheryl, look, we're not going into foster care, okay?" John B laid his hands on the table. " We're not gonna go be a part of your little system."

" John B, Ocean, this is Deputy Thomas." a big officer comes walking behind John B.

Of course John B walks closer to me to get away from the officer.

She starts to stand up. " He works with juveniles for the sheriff's department." " Look, I know Uncle T is down in Mississippi working at a casino. He hasn't been here in months."

" What?" I laughed.

John B and I try to run but the big officer stops us.

" No, see, that's my nightmare right there." John B walks away from the situation.

" Look, we – we, we want emancipation." I demanded.

" Emancipation from who? There's nobody but you two." she looks at me.

" Uhh.. asylum, then." John B added.

" On what grounds?" she asked.

Is this bitch fucking stupid or something?

" On solid grounds. On holy grounds." I explained.

" Look, we feel real – real prosecuted right now by you and especially Mr. Big Head over here." He points at the officer. " What are you lookin' at, bro? What are you gonna do? You gonna tase me?"

We try running again but once again we get stopped.

" Ocean and John." she yells.

" Oh, yeah, you wanna dance, huh?" he finally decides to open his fucking mouth.

That is when the officer grabbed John B.

" No, let him go!" I screamed.

" Relax John." Cheryl says while the officer is setting John B down.
