Broken promises ~ JJ Maybank ~ Sequel to Promises

Chapter thirty-four ~ "It's You"

There was no chance in hell I was staying in this house full of people who just want to send me away, I'll send myself away, they don't want me so I'll go. All I knew was Rafe had the cross and Pope needed help, I had no idea where John b, Sarah, Kie or JJ was.

I get in the car and follow Popes location. Covered in mud, Pope jumps in the car.

K: Morning?

P: Thanks for coming

K: obviously, now what the hell happened

P: You won't believe it when I tell you, also can we grab kie on the way?

K: she's not the boys?

P: no she's at home

K: shit

I knew Kiara was in the same position as me and did not enjoy the company of her parents at the moment.

Once we picked up Kiara, Pope tracked JJ's phone and we follow it to them.

P: hey guys

Jb: holy shit

Jj: scared me half to death, I was ready to stab your eyes out.

Ki: you look scared as shit

Jj: how'd you find us?

K: pope tracked your phone of mine

Jj: smart, didn't even know you have my location

K: I know

Jj smirks at me.

Jb: you okay? what happened?

P: Rafe round 3.

Jj: are you freaking kidding me?

K: again!

P: this was a tie

Jb: you good?

P: is that the cross?

Jj: yep

We watched as the cross got lifted up onto a massive cargo ship.

Jb: they're holding Sarah hostage.

Ki: we have to get on that boat.

Jj: first we gotta get past the goon squad.

P: okay let's move. Come on.

K: pope what're you doing?

P: I have an idea. Just trust me. Go I'll meet up with you guys.

And with that pope ran off to hide round another corner, leaving us all confused.

Ki: well this isn't very safe

K: when is it ever?

Our chit chat comes to a sudden holt when the oil tank 100 metres away from us goes up in flames.

Ki: holy shit

K: what the fuck was that?

Pope hurries back over to us.

Jb: pope, what was that?

P: look that containers going on to the ship. We can get in that way. Are you with me?

Jb: you're a genius. Let's go. This way. Come on, come on.

The rest of us follow behind them hoping they had a plan here.

Jj: wait they're right there, they're right there.

Pope jumps into the container.

Jj: wait woah! Did you think this through?
