Getting back to the house after the cemetery adventure, JJ raided John B's kitchen. The boy complained the whole way back, that they he had been starved. However, the rest of the group surrounded a paranoid John B, who was getting ready to open the mysterious envelope.
But JJ wasn't the only one who was hungry. Bondi's stomach rumbled, craving food. Hearing the girls loud stomach, JJ popped his head back into the living room. "Want a sandwich Bond?"
She giggled, "how could a girl pass up a sandwhich." She says as her mouth watered just thinking about getting her hands on some food.
With her response, JJ threw her a huge smile and went back to making the sandwiches.
"That bread had mold on it three days ago." Pope recalls to JJ who was in the process of making Bondi's favorite sandwhich. A peanut butter and jelly.
"I'll just pull off the bad parts," JJ responded. Shrugging his shoulders. "Plus, mold is good for you. It's just a natural organism.
"JJ!" Kiara hollered, getting the boys attention. Ready for John B to finally open the envelope. He ran to the table and slid a plate over to his bestfriend. "Your sandwhich, m'lady."
Glancing at what was in front of her Bondi slightly frowned. The sandwhich indeed had green patches of mold all over it. But forcing a smile, Bondi muttered, "thank you good sir."
He laughed, taking a bite from his own sandwhich. As he started to chew he slowly stopped. JJ's eyes grow wide and he spit the gross sandwhich into his hand. Gagging he mumbled for Bondi not to try hers.
Shrugging she took a bite anyways, still starving. However, her reaction was quite different. "Eh it's not that bad," she uttered taking another bite.
The group gave her a disgusted look as she asked innocently, "what?"
John B shook his head suppressing a grin. Finally gaining the courage to open the envelope he tore the package. Bondi leaned over JJ and watched intently. The boy pulled out a large sheet of paper that was folded multiple times. Bondi's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Wondering what was so important about the crumbled up paper.
Yet, once the sheet unfolded the group was met with a map. A map of the Outer Banks as well as the sea. Written on the old map were coordinates and a scribbled X.
John B whispered, "holy shit." As Pope pointed to the map, "X marks the spot."
John B traced his finger along the map, "longitude, latitude." Looking further into the envelope he spotted a tape recorder.
"What's that?" JJ asked.
"It's a tape recorder, dumbass," Kiara uttered. Bondi put a hand on the blonde boys back, "it's okay. We all have our moments."
