The next morning Isla woke up on a very uncomfortable bed. The four of them decided to spend the night at the wreck, hoping they'd be safe there.
Isla stood up, feeling pain in all of her muscles making her groan loudly.

She walked out of the little room and entered the restaurant, noticing JJ was already awake, looking out of the window.

"Hey."
Isla said softly, making JJ turn around to face her.

"Hey"
He said smiling back at her.

"So, how did you sleep?"
Isla asked, since she remembered that he left her side in the middle of the night and never returned.

"I didn't."
He shrugged.

"Well, I didn't sleep much either."
She replied, looking at him.

"Are you alright JJ?"
Isla asked, stroking his jawline with her hands, causing him to look at her.

"I'm just worried for JB."
He said while sighing deeply.

"Yeah, me too."
She confessed, sighing as well.

"He's pinched for sure."
JJ said looking outside of the windows again, seeing the racing cars.

"No, they wouldn't still be patrolling if they caught him."
They heard Pope say who walked up from behind them.

"Let's hope."
JJ said looking at him.

"You know, we were in that car, they're probably looking for us too."
Kie said from behind them.

"Well, if we're gonna be outlaws we might as well help John B."
Pope said as he walked away from them.

"So, find him before they do?"
JJ asked, while Pope took the keys to JJ's dirtbike and walked away.

"Pope?"
JJ said confused.

"I'm gonna get gas for the boat."
Pope explained.

"Hey, you be careful. Okay?"
Kiara told him softly but he just gave her a stern look and turned to Isla and JJ.

"Meet me at the dock at three, don't be late."
Pope said making Isla confused on why he was suddenly acting so cold.

She exchanged a confused look with Kiara, who decided to follow Pope soon after.
"What is going on?"
She asked JJ.

"I have no idea."
He shrugged and walked out as well, Isla followed him and watched the scene in front of her, Pope was mad at Kie for an unknown reason.
Kiara tried to apologize but Pope was being annoying and made a lot of noice with the dirtbike so he couldn't hear Kie's apology.

"What the hell happend with them?"
Isla asked confused.

"I know just as much as you do."
JJ said, looking at the two confused.

"Weird."
Isla sighed while she watched Pope drive away, leaving Kiara, she turned around and looked at Isla and JJ.

"Are you all right?"
Isla asked worried.

"Yeah I'm fine."
She said softly, obviously lying.

They then got interrupted by the sound of a helicopter, making the, all look up and watch it fly above their heads.

"Who the hell is that?"
JJ asked.

"I have no idea."
Isla said sighing, this was only getting worse and worse.


"You sure he wasn't just being weird Pope?"
JJ asked while they were packing up some food from the restaurant.

"It wasn't really the kind of thing that needed interpretation. Is that gonna be enough food for them?
Kie answered, handing Isla some bread.
