Kie, Estrella, and JJ walk slowly along the wall. Kie peeks around the corner.
"Clear." JJ says. The three quickly run across, but Estrella and Kie stop as they come face to face with a crew member. JJ peeks over the boat.
"I don't see him."
"Jay." Estrella says as he finally sees the man. The crew member pulls out his knife.
"Of course. There's more of you. Get down on your knees."
"Yeah, that's not gonna happen." JJ says quickly ducking as the man swings at him
"Go, go, go!" Kie says as the man swings again. She and Kie hold the man's arm against the wall as JJ stands up.
JJ punches him before grabbing his shoulder, "Hit him, Kie!"
Kie swings a door open knocking the man down.
"Where's John B?"
Kie runs over to the edge of the boat, "John B!"

Cleo and Charlotte hold onto the rope as Pope guides the cross to the edge of the boat.
"Hey, Pope, move it more that way." Cleo yells, "Over the water."
"I'm moving it."
"Come on! To the right more! All right!"

The man swings the knife again at JJ who ducks and falls back. Estrella runs up behind the man as he charges at Kie.
"Kie!" JJ yells as the girl turns. He swings at Kie, but Estrella pushes him. The man turns to hit Estrella, but JJ jumps up and grabs his arm.
JJ and the man struggle before he elbows JJ in the chest. The man swings to hit Kie, but she ducks. Estrella could sense that the man's arm wasn't going to stop so she ducked away. She hears a groan as the man's arm swings around and the end of the knife hits JJ in the face sending him overboard.
"JJ!" Estrella screams before immediately jumping in after him
Kie groans as she kicks the man in his stomach sending him to the ground, "JJ!"
Estrella gasps as she comes up out of the water. Her head whips around to find JJ face down in the water. He had yet to move. She quickly swims over and grabs him turning him over.
"Jay!" She says as she wraps her around his waist, "JJ!"
Estrella hadn't noticed Kie jump in until the girl comes around to hold his other side. Estrella taps JJ's cheek, "JJ! Jay, stay with me. Jay, please. Please!"
