"Rafe went crazy after the party."

Lily stayed over for quite a while, they ended up falling asleep together. When her eyes squint open she looks around to see dim lights from his window from the moon, she checks her phone and the bright light made her groan. It was only ten pm. "Rafe, I got to go." she says messing with the boys hair whose head was on her stomach.

"No not yet." he says with a sleepy voice, "I just got you back princess, no way i'm letting you go." he says wrapping his arms over her even tighter, but not to the point it hurts.

"I'll be back later, okay?" she says trying to get up, he groans and flips over to his back with his hands behind his neck. She gets off the bed and leans over and kisses him, "I'll see you later." she whispers and grabs her bag, then walks out.

Just as she walks down the steps she sees Wheezie walk past but notice Lily. "Lily, i'm so glad you're back." she says hugging her as she reaches the bottom of the steps. "What do you mean?" Lily laughs.

Wheezie pulled back and shook her head, "Rafe went crazy after the party."

Lily scrunched her eyebrows in confusion, "Him and Rose got into last night and he tried to do something. It was bad. He punched many holes into the wall, basically tore up the house."

"Well i'm back so don't worry. I'll talk to him about it okay?" she nods in reassurance hugging the girl before leaving the house.

When Lily arrived back at the Chateau, she felt a off feeling. She felt like there was someone watching her, "Uh, JJ?" She says walking around the house to see Renfield talking to the others, Pope slowly shakes his head looking at the girl to not do anything.

Renfield looked at lily, he smiled and grabbed her before she could even think. He put her right in front of him and put a gun to her head. "Give me the key." he says while the others froze trying to think of something quick.

Pope hands over the key, Lily felt as if it was her fault he had to hand it over. Renfield left and whistled. "Pope, i'm so sorry." the blond girl says still in shock.

"I'm am so sick of this shit." he responds, Kie gives Lily a glance and smile to reassure her. Pope walks off and into the house while the other look at each other.

JJ explained what had all happened while she was gone, he questioned what happened with her and Rafe but she ignored all questions.

"Is he really that desperate for a key?" Lily says shaking her head.

The next morning they were all on the patio sitting down on the couches. "Well what do we owe the offer princess." JJ says looking at the screen door opening.

"Shouldn't you be on Figure Eight with your little group of the polo players?" JB smiles sarcastically. "Or did you break up with Topper?" he adds.

"We're just friends." she replies back to him, giving JohnB a small smile. "You have a lot of friends Sarah Cameron." JB says instigating an argument.

"Do yall really have to start arguing in the morning." Lily says putting a hand up to her forehead with her arm resting on the edge of the couch.

"I'm here for Pope." Sarah says looking at the boy, Pope scrunched his eyebrows confused. "I think I found the island room."

As those words came out of Sarah's mouth, everyone sat up straight and looked directly at her.

"Wait are you serious?" Kie asks while she fully stands up, Sarah nods at her question.

"So did you and Rafe, ever make up?" Kie whispers to Lily, "Yeah, it's just that he seems more crazier."

"I told you he was a psychopath." Kie laughs while looking at a paper that was given to her by Pope.

"I said crazier, not a psychopath." She laughs and shakes her head, Lily then looks out the window and thought back to what Wheezie had said. Was he really that crazy for me? She thought.

When they arrive back to Tannyhill, Lily gets this weird feeling in her gut but brushes it off as they walk inside.

"This place freaks me out." JohnB says looking around, "Yeah, same." JJ replies back fast.

Sarah opens a door and looks back at Pope, "Look." she says opening the door wider for them to come in. Pope takes a look at the wall and his face immediately dropped.

The walls were completely torn up and behind the torn walls were a map of the whole town, "How did you figure this out?" JJ asks taking a look at the wall across from him.

"I don't know, it was like this after Lily left last night." Sarah shrugs, "The freaks." someone says from behind them making all of them jump. Wheezie.

"What freaks are we talking about?" Kie asks, "Uh, that sick lady and her attack dog. They showed up last night and wanted to talk to Rafe."

"A pale, blond scary lady with crutches?" Lily asks and Wheeze nods with a hum.

"It's got to be Limbrey." Pope mumbles to himself, "Restate what happened." JB says not taking his eyes off the girl.

"First they searched the whole house looking for something, and Rafe told me to go upstairs. But I listened through the grate, Rafe showed him this room with that hole in the wall so Limbrey started peeling everything off."

"Okay, so that was moments after Renfield left the Chateau and came back here." Lily nods, and the others agree back with her.

"And they were talking about getting across the sand flamingo?" Wheeze says confused.

"That's a code for something." The twins says synced.

"The Cross of Santo Domingo?" Pope says putting the pieces together, the twins take a step back feeling stupid.

"That's it. Oh, and they were talking about a lot of angel talk." Wheezie says leaning onto a chair infront of her.

"He buried the real treasure at the foot of the angel. They're looking for an angel. We have to find the angel in the room." Pope says and they all start looking around for any clue of anything.
