"Is that Lily?"
༺☆༻
_____________________

Rafe talks to Rose silently as Lily and Sarah are unconscious in the room downstairs. "Go get Lily, I'll get Sarah." she says walking into a different room.

"On it." Rafe nods before walking downstairs and picking up Lily off of the couch. He looks at her and brushes her hair out of her face.

Rafe walks back to the back door and carries her outside. He puts her into the truck in the passenger side and walks over to the driver side.

"Is that Lily?" JJ whispers about to run towards the truck but JB and Pope pull him back. "Don't. He might have a gun." JohnB says.

"He's got my Cross." Pope says in anger and runs after the truck grabbing onto the handle and hops onto it.

Rose and Wheeze struggle to carry Sarah because of her dead weight and never been in a situation like that before. "Don't worry, I gave her an anti-anxiety pill. She will be fine." Rose grunts.

They softly put Sarah into the backseat of the car and drive away.

Rafe backs up into a swamp and Lily regains consciousness, "Rafe?" she says squinting her eyes. "It's okay, I just have to take care of something. Then we will be on our way." he responds in a gentle voice.

She nods and closes her eyes again at once still not quite awake.

Rafe steps out of the truck and opens the back door to revel the body, he throws the body off of the truck and pulls it towards the lake.

He pushes the body into the water and walks back to the truck looking at a gator swarming towards the surface where the body is set.

Watching the gator eat and chew it up, feeling the relief rest off his shoulders until he feels a push against him.

He falls onto the ground and sees Pope. He stands back up instantly and smirks, "Okay round three, bitch." Rafe says before dropping Pope to the ground.

He gets on top of him and starts punching him left and right until Pope kicks him off.

Lily hears the grunting and noises outside, she slowly opens her eyes and looks out the review mirror. "Pope?" she mumbles confused.

Lily opens the door and steps out and walks towards the back of the truck to see Rafe and Pope fighting. "What the fuck?" she says.

They both throw each other off and stand up, "Lily, i'm so glad you're okay." the dark haired boy says about to walk up to her.

"Don't." Rafe says in a stern voice. "Pope go, i'm okay." Lily whispers trying to not get the poor boy killed.

Pope runs off and gives Lily a look of reassurance that they have a plan set out.

Rafe closes the wooden doors and walks back to the front door. Lily gives a good hard sigh before getting back into the truck.

"I know you don't like seeing your friends hurt, but he came at me." Rafe says wiping her blond hair out of her face. "Now, please drink some water." he says handing her a water bottle.

She looked at it not sure if it was drugged, "Well here's my fate." she mumbles before drinking it and not feeling anything before instantly she knocks back out.

Rafe looks at her and wipes her hair out of her face, he grabs a blanket from the compartment and puts it on her.

Meanwhile JJ and JohnB follow Rose to get Sarah back. "Okay I get that we have to get your girlfriend and all, but what about Lily." JJ says sneaking behind a red tractor.

"Oh shit. I forgot about her." JB says pulling his hair back, JJ looks at him and slaps him on his chest.

"Let's figure this out first."

They sneak past into the gate they hide behind other broken tractors. They see the big Coastal Centure boat and look at each other. "I know that ship dude. My dad did legs on her last summer. It's a tramp steamer." JJ says yapping.

"There's the cross!" JohnB points out. They look closer to see the Cross in a wood box going up into the ship. And then see Rafe holding Lily in his arms.

They hear yelling at see Rose, Wheezie, and Sarah getting out of the car.

"Get Lily to. and you better not fuck with her." Rafe says passing Lily to the guy beside him.

After a while of detracting and making fires, the rest of them make their way into the containers and successfully onto the dock.

Lily wakes up quick, right next to Sarah who also wakes up. "Lily!" Sarah says pulling her into a hug. "What happened?"

"All I remember is waking up again and seeing Pope and Rafe fight. And him putting me back to sleep again."

Sarah stands up and looks outside to see nothing but water surrounding them. "They keep doing this shit."

Lily grabs a butter knife from the table next to her and stands up, just as she's about to unlock it. Someone unlocks the door from the other side.

They step back and see Ward. "Hey sweetie. and Lily."

Lily steps back and drops the knife. Her face in shock and anger.

"I know this is impossible, let me explain-" he says getting cut off but Sarah slapping him.

Honestly wished I did that Lily says silently in her head not knowing what he's more capable of this time.
