kiara pov:

"oh my god, kiara are you okay?" sarah says as we all get on the boat. "yeah" i say. "what happened?" sarah says. i shrug my shoulders. "guys..." i say. "i wasn't the only one singh kidnapped". "what?" pope says. "who else?" cleo says. i take a deep breathe. "rafe..." i say. "rafe!?" sarah says. i nod. "what the fuck?" jj says. "i was locked in the same room as him.. i had to sleep in the same room as him!" i say. sarah puts her hand on my shoulder. "are you okay?". i nod. "come on guys, we gotta go" i say. everyone continues walking up the boat. sarah grabs my hand as i go to walk away. i turn around to face her again. "ki..." she says. "i'm okay. i promise" i say, as i hug her. "i don't understand how you could sit in the same room as him.." she says. "i didn't have a choice" i say. she gives me a sympathetic look. "i thought singh was gonna kill me.." my voice cracks. "we, we heard a gunshot. we tried to break you out... one of jayj's stupid plans..." she says. "portis. he killed portis" i say. "oh my god" she says. "i know. it was terrifying. i thought he was gonna kill me and i thought i would never see you guys again.." i say. "you're okay now" she says. i nod. "come on, let's go" i say, and we both follow the others on the boat. sarah goes to the top with john b and i go over to jj who's untie-ing ropes. "okay, so.. i have a few questions" he says. "go ahead" i say. he starts rambling about the boat, i don't get half of what he's saying, i just laugh. "you know we could go anywhere with this thing right?" he says. "i know, it's kind of a piece of shit" i giggle. "what did they want from you anyways? they didn't hurt you did they?" he says. "no, no i'm good, it's just.. you're not gonna believe what singh wanted from me" i pause. he looks at me. "denmark's diary" i say. jj stops. "why?" he says. "he said, it leads to a treasure, a lot bigger than the merchant" i say. "your saying there's a bigger treasure?" he says, stepping back on the boat and walking past me. "count me in" he says, i laugh and follow him through the boat. "you know anything else about this treasure?" he says. "uh, 450 years people have been looking for it, it's some city of gold. eldorado, he called it" i say. "city of gold?" he says, turning to look at me. i nod. he stares at me. i pull a confused face. "i'm so happy to see you again" he says. i smile. "i'm so happy to see you too" i say, hugging him. "it feels nice to feel safe" i say. he laughs. "you're always safe with me" he says. "i know" i say, pulling out of the hug. "did, anything happen while you were in there? we heard a gunshot..." he says. i nod. "singh killed portis" i say. "what?" jj says. i nod. "it was so scary, i was so scared, he said he was gonna kill me" i say. he bites his lip. "i'm so sorry you had to go through that ki" he says. "don't apologise, it's not your fault" i say, shaking my head. "we tried everything we could to get you out, i tried" he says. i nod. "sarah told me about you making stupid plans" i laugh. "yeah.. some of them weren't very smart, i'll give you that. i was just spiralling, i didn't think straight without you" he says. he turns around and continues walking through the boat. we walk up the stairs to the top floor where the wheel is. sarah is standing there with her head in her hands. "sarah?" i say. "where john b?" jj says "he's been hearing these bells, church bells, he thinks it's his dad. he's gone up to the church" she says. "what" i say. "i know" she says. "we don't have time for this, we really need to go" i say. "i know, i told him to hurry". sarah says. i sit down behind sarah. i sigh. "we have got to get out of here" i say.

jj pov:

i can't believe what ki went through. she was locked up, in a room, not knowing where she was or why she was there, with rafe cameron. she had nobody to comfort her and she was told she was gonna be killed. she practically watched singh shoot portis. i feel so bad for her. but i'm so glad she's okay now, she's with us and she's safe. i look over at ki who's sitting down, sarah is talking to her, until sarah looks down at pope and cleo and walks down to them. i look at ki again and she's playing with her bracelet on her wrist. i walk over and sit next to her. i look at the same bracelet on my wrist. "remember when you made us these?" i say, touching mine. she nods. she made one for me, one for her, one for pope and one for john b. i've never taken it off since she gave it to me. "yeah i remember" she says. "they took me hours to make" she laughs. "i love mine. i've never taken it off" i say. "never?" she says. "never" i shake my head. she smiles. i smile at her back. she has a pretty smile... "yo guys" pope says. "come on man where is john b at, we gotta go!" cleo says. "i know" ki says. "i can't believe he just took off" pope says. i look at the bridge to see cars and quads racing over it, and people running with guns. singhs men.

kiara pov:

"guys!" i say standing up. "guys incoming!" i shout. "that's singhs men!" cleo says. i feel sick and i feel my heart drop and i feel dizzy and i can't breathe and like i'm gonna pass out. everything goes blurry and i can't see anything, or hear anything. i snap myself back into reality to hear pope. "jj, what are we gonna do?". "we gotta take a stand" he says, reloading the gun. "what!?" i say. "kiara we're not splitting up again!" jj says. "you guys didn't see what i saw, he killed portis! we can't stay here!" i shout. "well we're not leaving john b!" he shouts. "we don't have a choice anymore!" i shout. "kiara no!" he shouts. "i'm not going back there!" i shout. i feel the boat start to move. i look at the wheel and sarah is driving the boat out of the marina. "no john b! we need to get john b!" jj shouts. "we'll find john b later!" i shout. "no!" jj shouts. i look at the marina to see guards getting on their knees and aiming their guns. "we need to get john b!" jj shouts. "we can't just leave him like that! no pogue left behind!" jj shouts. "jj we can't stay here!" i say. "we can't leave him!" he shouts. "we'll find him later! i'm not going back there yall didn't see what i saw! yall didn't go through what i went through!" i shout. "i don't care! we can't leave him"- jj's shouting gets interrupted by bullets flying towards us. "ki get down!" jj shouts. i duck behind the seats and cover my head with my hand and more gunshots go off. it reminds me off being locked in that room with rafe when singh shot portis. my heart is pounding so fast and i block every sound out of my head, not wanting to hear the gunshots. i cup my hands around my eyes and squeeze my eyes closed. "ki" i feel someone touching my back. i look up at sarah. she crouches down. "it's ok" she says. i take my hands off my ears and realise the shooting stopped. i zoned myself out so badly that i didn't even notice. "john b!" jj shouts. i put my head on my knees. "shit!" i shout. i get up from the floor and sit on the seat at the other end of the boat. i look out at the marina in the distance as we drive away from it. all of singh's guards are still there, just watching us sail away.
