Skylar's pov
"Wow I'm kind of offended" I say holding a hand over my heart in mock offense
"Alright well can we go to the next clue now?" I asked Arno whi shook his head and laughed and we left I think they forgot about my head injury
*at Wall street*
We split up to cover more ground when I felt someone following me I knew there was only a few people who it could be. I whipped around to find out who
"Well Ms. Dorian we always seem to meet in the worst circumstances but that's not important I have the Declaration and your friends and family" Charles Lee growled holding the container that held the Declaration and his goons held guns to my father, brothers, and.....friends? I don't know
"What do you want Lee?" I say glaring
"You know what I want" he growled I looked at them but mostly at Jacob who has tears in his eyes and that sight alone pissed me off. I need to stay calm cause I'm not losing my family!
"Under the church inside one of the tombs" I sigh and act defeated. He smiles
"Good now come along now" he says and I follow behind him with the group quietly
"Why Sky?" Arno asked
"Play your cards brother play your cards" I say they all get confused besides Dad he just smiles
"That's my girl" he whispers I smile and follow closer to Charles but far enough so they don't think I'll try anything he leads us downstairs to an area where three tombs are waiting
"Which one?" He asked but I heard an underlying demand under his breath I sigh and look around
"That one" I say pointing to the one on the farthest left side. One of the goons then goes over and broke it then they removed the stone casket
"Ladies first" Charles says bowing for dramatic effect I roll my eyes but crawl inside the tomb with the others not far behind me
*present*
"Wait what does play your cards mean mom?" Jake asked me
"It means Lee wouldn't kill any of them as long as I was important" I explain they nod and let me continue the story
*flashback*
Once I was fully inside I grabbed one of the torches and Charles Lee so generously lights it up when he gets in
"Lead the way Ms. Dorian" he says as the others crawl in behind me and I see this big wooden staircase leading all the way down I grabbed one of the goons torches and threw it down. Long drop if someone fell down that they'd die for sure
"Careful this wood is really old and rotted" I say as a warning. Well more towards my family but they don't need to know that nonetheless Charles Lee nods and heads down before me
"So you had to drag us into this?!" Katie snaps I roll my eyes
"You wanted to steal it I just helped" I say
"Why did you help them?" One of the goons ask cause Charles to look at me with a knowing look
"Reasons" I say plainly and the goon that asked the question fell through the wood
"Well he's dead" Jacob says what I'm thinking after a few minutes of silence. We kept moving down the staircase but the wood broke and all of them rush to the elevator Lee dropping then Declaration in the process I quickly grab Mercedes hand before she fell
"You trust me?" I aske her she looks at me confused
"Yeah why?" She asked I waited for a minute then let go and watched as she dropped on a wood structure that hasn't broken then i reached up and grabbed the container then I dropped and landed next to Mercedes
"You ok?" I ask her she nods and the elevator comes down next to us
"Come on guys" Sacara says quietly we nod and hop on and when we finally made it to the bottom we hopped off and Charles pointed a gun at all of us
"Where is it?!" He asked I start thinking I look around as well
'Quick think of something!' I was mentally screaming at myself then I looked at the lamp
"Paul Revere" I say the first thing to pop in my head that made sense everyone looks at me confused even my dad did
"The church that Paul Revere used light the lamp in it twice and the answer will appear" I say continuing with the lie
"Great see you later Ms. Dorian " he says using the elevator to get up
"Great now they get treasure and we die!" Katie says
"Why sweetie?" Dad asked me I turn towards them with a small smirk on my face and that causes Nate and Arno to smile
"She gave them a false clue" the two of them say together I walk into room behind everyone I look around
"What are these?" I hear Sacara ask I walk over to where she was and saw what she was looking at I felt the circles and saw while the others were carved one was hollow like something belonged with it
"Could it be that easy?" I asked myself and pull the box out from my bag and opened it and put the boat part of the pipe in the hole and it fit
"Arno wanna turn it?" I asked him he shook his head and looked towards Jacob
"Jacob wanna turn it?" I asked him he smiled and nodded
*present*
"Wait when did you meet Dad?" Jake asked I smiled
"Hang on I'm getting there" I say to them
*flashback*
He walked up and turned turned the circle and the stone wall moves opens we all walk in and it closes behind us
