season 1 episode 9
John B and Victoria began to slow down as they walked into the abandoned hanger near the private air strip.
The teens were numb. Victoria looked at the blood that had splattered against her, which was nothing compared to John B's hands.
Pope froze, looking at the two as they rounded the corner.
"What?" Kiara turned around. "Oh, my god!" She rushed over to the two.
"You good? You guys good?" JJ asked, following behind from Pope and Kie. "Is this yours?" He held up John B's hand, glancing at Victoria. "Yours?"
"Whose blood is that?"
More sirens sounded as the three bombardment the other two. They quickly jumped behind some deberis, Victoria closed her eyes as she tried to grasp what was happening.
"What the hell is happening?" Pope asked.
Victoria shook her head, rushing to the side of the hanger to throw up.
"John B-"
"W-We need to go." Was all he said.
"Go where?" JJ asked, watching as Victoria wiped her mouth with the back of her hand.
"Police."
"What? What the fuck are we going to the police?" Kie asked.
"Rafe shot Peterkin." Victoria said, still leaning against the wall. The other four turned to look at her.
"What?"
------------------------------
"All right, spill. What are we doing here?" JJ asked as they teens pulled up to the police station.
"Somebody's gotta tell them what happened." John B said, barely above a whisper.
Kie stopped her car, looking at Victoria in the passenger seat. The girl has yet to utter a word. Kie snapped out of her worried glance as Pope began to cough in the back seat, a blunt in his hand.
"Easy there chief." JJ said from his spot in the trunk. He leaned forward to rest a hand on John B's shoulder. "All right. I'm just gonna be real with you right now. You might end up in the lion's den, but you don't go there on purpose. It's fundamental. Just like my old man always told me, you should never ever trust cops, no matter what the circumstance is-"
"Your old man's an abusive liar." Kie cut him off.
"I agree with JJ." Pope said, his coughs finally subsiding. "Fuck the police."
"You goin' to the dark side now?"
"When's the last time the police helped us?"
"Peterkin looked out for me, all right?" John B snapped. "Tried to, at least. They need to know. Vicki, you coming?"
Kie turned her head to look back at Victoria, the girl still staring out the windshield.
"I think she's broken." Kie said quietly as if the girl right next to her wouldn't hear her.
"I-I'll be right back." John B opened the door, climbing out of the back seat.
"Vic," Kie whispered, reaching out to grab the girls' hand. "You're worrying us."
"Rafe shot Peterkin." Victoria whispered. "A-And Sarah stayed back as we ran away and what if-"
"She can hold her own. She's strong." Kie assured her. "But, I can tell that's not all." Victoria finally turned to look at Kiara.
