{Hey guys so I've been really busy with schooling and I need time to continue working on how to develop the plot from here. I wasn't going to publish this yet but it's been awhile and I haven't added much so enjoy also p.s. sorry it is so short, this is just the first half of what this chapter was really going to be}

Finn POV:
I was right. Something was wrong, not that I doubted my deductive skills. But now, as she cried I didn't know what to do. She crumpled onto the ground and I decided to do something that would either go well or really badly. I hugged her close to me. I closed my eyes waiting for her to punch me or something but nothing came except more tears. Fontaine laid against my side for a while and I just hoped Maddy or Dad didn't come in. Finally I could feel her breathing lightening slightly and eventually she stopped crying. I gently wiped away a tear with my finger and she abruptly stood up.

"Sorry, I didn't know what came over me." She blushed slightly, or maybe not, it was hard to tell with her eyes red from crying.

"Oh! Uh well it's no problem, anytime?" I added dumbly. What on earth did I just say? I must be losing it. Fontaine looked at me then down at the ground.

"Well Dad will probably be expecting me so..." I trailed off. "You going to be okay?"

She nodded as I unlocked the door and stood in the doorway.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes I'll be fine," She said sitting gracefully down back on the ground.

I reluctantly left the room and shut the door. In all honesty I couldn't tell if she really was okay. Out of all the time I've known her I've never seen her anything aside from happy or angry. There seemed to be no inbetween. Seeing her crying was a little unnerving to say the least.

I walked to the bridge as Dad and Danny Boy were quietly talking. If Dad was speaking quietly then I knew it couldn't be good.
Dad turned around and jumped slightly when he saw me.
"Oh! Son I didn't see you there. How long you been standing there boy?"
"Oh not long," I stood there awkwardly.
"Look what I found here son, there's another treasure. And we have the map" he said hopping up and down like a five-year-old.
"But we just pulled off a treasure heist."
"Yes but this time I have a source that tells me the Nektons will be there, and now we have collateral."
