[ SO, THEY GOT AWAY? ]
the four teenagers stood as officer shoupe walked back under the tent they were in.
"did you find them?" pope asked.
"no." shoupe said.
"so they got away?" kei asked.
"we, uh, we lost them... i'm sorry."
"you lost them?" pope asked. "what do you mean you lost them? like they're gone? what are you talking about?"
"they took and open boat into a tropical depression, pope." shoupe said.
"so, they're dead?" kei said.
"we don't know." shoupe said.
"you drove them straight through the storm, man!" jj was started to get angry about the fact that john b and sarah could be dead. "are you kidding me? come here—"
"jj, stop!" maya grabbed the boys hand but it was torn away from her as two of the officers grabbed the boy.
"he didn't kill anyone, and you know it!" pope shouted.
"we're still looking for him, alright?"
"pope. pope, just stop." kei says. "please, stop."
kei's mom came under the tent, followed by her father. then, heyward came, too, along with his wife.
they took their kids into tight hugs, maya and jj looked around nervously as they didn't have anyone there for them.
"maya, maya." chrystal said, coming under the tent. she pulled both maya and jj into a hug. "i'm sorry." chrystal said, "i'm so sorry, maya. for all the shit i put you through."
"i know." maya said, tears in her eyes as her older sister pulled her close.
"chrys, they're gone."
"we don't know that." she said, "we don't know that."
"they're gone."
"maya, why is there blood on my hand?"
"wh—"
"oh, shit, her head!"
