"wait, you haven't been home since your dad kinda... you know." I explain to Sarah. "I know, but I just need to get some things, please trust me, I'll be okay." She tries to convince all of us.

"Fine, but we're all coming." John b states. "Fine." She agrees.

It's night time and we make it to tanny hill.

We wait outside to make sure no one's around.

Sarah gets out and John b runs after her, they talk and talk and talk.

They then end it with a sloppy kiss and Sarah runs into her house.

"Hey! Do you want me to preform your vows while your at it?" Pope asks. "Did you say be safe?" Jj chuckles. "Christ, could you take any longer?" I scoff.

"I said be safe." John b sighs.

////

"It's been 30 minutes, where is she?!" I ask. "Wait... no! No! They got her in the car!" John b shouts as we watch rose start her car.

"Go! Go!" We all run to the Twinkie before driving off and following her.

We got to some construction looking site and we snuck our way in.

We hid behind some containers and kept an eye out for Sarah.

"hurry up, sarah!" I hear a familiar voice shout from a distance. It was rafe.

"God, I hate that guy." I scoff.

"Wait, there's sarah!" John b whispers.

"Guys, we gotta come up with a plan." John b then states.

"I know. I'm working on it. Maybe, if we get over to that barge, we go over. We'll have to get into the water, though. Then we're gonna be sitting ducks." Jj explains.

"That's fine. They're holding Sarah hostage." John b sighs.

"We have to get on that boat." I state.

"First we gotta get past the goon squad." Jj scoffs.

"Okay, let's move. Come on. Pope, what're you doing?" John b asks.

"I have an idea. Trust me. Go. I'll meet up with you guys." Pope shoos us away before running off.

We go the opposite direction and run towards the boat.

While we were hiding from the ship workers, a big explosion followed us.

"Was that you?!" I laugh as I see pope run over to us. "Yeah." He smiles.

"What was that?!" John b asks pope. "Look, that containers going on the ship. We can get in that way. Are you with me?" Pope explains.

"Your a genius." My brother scoffs before we all run to the container.

We all hop in and wait to be shipped off.

"Free cruise." I laugh.

"Hell yeah, dream life." Jj then laughs before sitting beside me.

A few hours later it starts to get hotter and hotter.

"Nice work, John b. You know these things lock from the outside, right?" Jj scoffs. "Okay, I was just trying to get us on the boat, jj." John b says, exhausted.

"It's hot." I sigh before taking off my jacket.

I tome out they're arguing because I was just too hot and tired.

Jj and pope then keep going on and the anger grew in me so I kick my foot out in front of them.

"Oh my god! Shut up. Shut up! Pull it together." I shout at them both.

"Okay. Let's find away out of here." Jj sighs.

"what's your plan?" I ask him.

"Hey, pope, how do you kill a snake?" Jj asks.

"You go for the head." Pope sighs.

"Exactly. But the head, in this instance, is the bridge. To take the bridge, we need maximum firepower. And I happen to know that there's an armoury on this ship in case of pirate attacks. So if we take that.. and I'm not just talking pistols. Im talking knives." Jj yaps on.

"Pirates... you lost me. Killing everybody here, is not a plan." I say as I look him in the eyes and walk off looking for something to help us get out.

"Ah, we lost her. Im serious. If we get to the armoury, I'm talking AKs, pistols, knives, double barrels-" jj yaps on again.

Im looking around, moving shit, doing whatever to find something. I then notice a window.

"Guys?" I say.

No replies as everyone is arguing.

"Guys!" I shout.

"She's got something, quiet." Pope says.

"Oh, I'm so sorry." Jj scoffs

"Just move with her." John b groans as they walk over to me.

They all look up at the window and I smirk as I realise I'm literally the smartest person ever.

"we can fit through that, yeah?" I ask.

"Hell yeah. Nice one, vi." Pope smiles.

"What was that about a Swiss Army knife not coming in handy?" Jj smiles before jumping up and opening the window with it.

"Okay, the plan is... we raid the armoury, get weapons, roll back here, and plot the next move." Jj explains while he cuts open the window.

"The armoury is on the third deck, aft, near the laundry room. Let's roll." He says before trying to hop out the window.

John b then pulls him back.

"Hey, hold on. I don't think we should all go out there. It's too risky." Pope says.

"Why?" Jj asks.

"I'm gonna me honest with you, I think you should stay here." John b then says.

"What? Why?" Jj questions.

"I have Sarah that I'm gonna go after. And I need someone smart to help me." John b explains.

"Woah, thanks." I say sarcastically.

"Yeah? Let's go together." Jj scoffs.

"Also, if you go out there, there's 100% probability that you're gonna do something stupid." John b sighs.

"Okay, first of all, I think the correct terminology is 'ballsy.' That is it." Jj says.

"Okay, get down here." Pope pulls jj.

"No. Get off!" Jj complains.

"Jj, just get down." I groan.

"Whatever." He sighs before stepping down.

"Look, just hang back. Hold down the fort." Pope says.

"Great. Looking forward to it. Mm hmm." Jj says with a snarky expression.

"I'll babysit." I say sarcastically.

"You guys have fun. It's your funeral, your game. I'll be in here, on the bench... chilling." Jj says as he goes and sits down.

"Hey. Don't get shot. That's all I got." I say to pope and my brother.

"Um, don't get shot. Well that's disheartening and scary. Positive affirmations, vi." John b sighs before him and pope head out.

I put the vent back on after they leave.

I take a slow look at jj and sigh.

This will be fun.
