They didn't know what to do if they phoned the emergency services would they think that they had something to do with it? or was Luke right should they call them and explain their version of events and try to clear their names pleading their full innocence. 


"We have to do something we can't just walk away" James said looking at the others "i told you phone the ambulance" Luke said getting stressed and angry "and then what Luke, they phone the police" Jai said Luke turned to Jai "well what do you suggest huh? walk away and leave here here next to our van" Luke stressed the point that she was laying dead next to a van that belonged to them. "When you think about it if someone else finds her and she's next to the van we will be suspects and the police would have more reason not to believe us" Skip had finally came to his senses and realized exactly what was happening "then we leave her and take the van" Beau suggested "are you fucking kidding Beau" Luke said putting his hands on his head in disbelief "what you mean just pack up and take the van and leave her here" Skip asked him "yeah that's exactly what i mean" Beau replied "this is crazy this could be murder and your suggesting we drive away with evidence" Luke was getting distressed "i can't stay here looking at her" Jai said putting his hand over his mouth wrenching about to be sick "well what do we do" James asked "i say do what i do" Beau said Luke slapped him on the head "hey what are you doing dick head" Beau grabbed Luke and they started to fight, rolling about the ground "guys stop it" Skip said trying to break them apart, Luke pushed him away as he tripped he fell backwards on to the body. Luke and Beau stopped fighting when they realized what had happened, Skip bounced up on to his feet "Luke you idiot" he shouted and then pushed him "i'm sorry i didn't mean to" Luke said apologetic "well we can't call anyone now Skip has touched her" James said. 

"Just pack up the van and lets go" Jai said grabbing the cases the rest of the boys just stood watching him "well come on help me" he said as he put the cases down in front of him "i don't believe this" Luke said now helping him "if you and Beau hadn't of started fighting" Skip said "hey he started it when he slapped my head" Beau said defending himself "you shouldn't of said something that stupid" Luke said, Beau turned to him "guys not again lets just get out of here" James said walking around the girl and opening the van. The boys threw all of the cases in the back, Luke and Jai sat in there with them, Beau and Skip sat in the passenger seats and James drove. As James got in the van he stopped for a moment "James what's wrong" Beau asked him and then looking out of the window "i think someone is here i just saw them" James said and Beau looked out of the window to see nothing "lets just get out of here" Beau said fastening his seat belt. James started the van and began to drive away, "what now" Skip asked the boys "we wait" Beau said. 

In the back of the van Jai and Luke were sitting opposite each other "Jai what do we do" Luke asked with his elbows resting on his knees "i don't know bro lets just get home" Jai said sounding worried "but what if the police find out that we were there and done nothing but drove off" he asked "then i suppose we just tell them the truth but it might not come to that" Jai tried to re assure his brother that it would be ok. "i will tell you one thing though if they find anything of skip on her body then he really is in trouble" Jai said to Luke who raised his head to look at him "do you think they will" he asked him "i don't know he wasn't on her for long but you know that they can pick up on almost anything" Jai replied to him "we should of just called the ambulance when i said and then we wouldn't be in this mess" Luke moved along a little "i should have agreed with you back there it would have been the better thing to do i was just freaking out and not thinking straight" Jai apologized to Luke for not backing him up "it's fine we were all pretty freaked out" Luke accepted the apology and Jai's reasons "yeah but you were the sensible one" Jai said worried "the sensible one that pushed his friend on to a dead body and could get him arrested for murder" Luke added. 

The van stopped and the back doors opened "we all stay together tonight" Beau said as Luke and Jai got out of the van "what about this" Jai asked pointing to the van "we will put it in the garage" Skip said as he came round from slamming the door shut. Beau unlocked the door to let the boys in and opened the garage door to let James put the van in. James came in to the living room "guys we need to wash the van down it's covered in blood" he said as Beau got up "are you kidding" he said looking at James "no i'm not come and look" he said leading the boys out to the garage "look it's all over the back and the side" he said showing them and pointing. "James did you leave the van unlocked" Jai asked him curious "yeah no one seen where i had left it and i had the keys" he said "shit" Jai went round to the back door and opened it, "Jai what are you doing" Beau asked going round to join him "look on the inside" Jai said turning to Beau "oh god" he said looking at Jai. The rest of the boys came round to see the blood and the Petrol canisters sitting with the boxes "shit Jai we sat in there all the way home" Luke was now in a complete panic "Luke calm down we will wash this whole van down" Skip said grabbing Luke's shoulders and looking in to his eyes. 

The boys started to clean the van down, Skip and Beau on the inside Luke, Jai and James on the outside "there's no way we can hide this" Luke whispered to Jai so the rest didn't hear "so what do we do" Jai whispered back stopping what he was doing "we phone the police or go to the station and we explain everything" Luke suggested, Jai ignored him and cleaned the last part of the inside "boys are you finished" Skip came round to ask "yeah we're done" Jai said looking at a guilty Luke. The boys went back in to the house and sat down none of them could sleep they were all wide awake "lets just hope they don't find anything of ours there" James said taking a deep breath "they won't we will be fine" Beau said sounding nervous "fine, Skip fell on a dead body and then we drove away from a possible murder scene with some evidence and then cleaned it down" Luke said to Beau very annoyed "we just have to wait and see what happens" Jai said putting his hands between his knees shifting around restless.
