"It comes and goes in waves"

NO ONE'S POV-

MJ fell to the floor on her side turning quickly to lay on her back so she could she Rafe, but only to have his sit on top of her and he began to punch her repeatedly ignoring the calls for him to stop, "Let go of her!" "Rafe, that's enough!"  "Get you hands of her!" Rafe stopped looking down and then at his fist, what had he done. JJ attempted to get up trying to fight Barry off to go help MJ but is only ended up with Barry beginning to punch him again. Rafe felt himself being shoved from the side looking up he saw Kie. "It's not you who we want, Kie. Now where is John B and SJ?" he said standing up, Kie slapped him, "What is it with you girl's being bitch's?" he asked wrapping his hand around her neck, "Now where is John B and SJ?" "I don't know! I don't know!" Kie cried out. Suddenly Rafe let go when Pope came from behind and hit his back with a pipe, Rafe punched him back making him drop the pipe, Milly and Kie watched as Pope began to beat Rafe up and the sound of a gun cocking made them look at Barry, JJ grabbed his feet making him fall and drop the gun, "Milly, the gun!" he yelled and she kicked it under the boat, JJ dealt with Barry and Pope kept punching Rafe, "Pope! Hey! Pope that's good! Stop!" Milly yelled at him, "Hey Pope! Dude come on! Snap out of it! Stop! Stop, dude!" JJ pulled Pope off as he began to strangle him with a rope. Pope dropped him when Milly yelled, "Look at me!" "Guys. MJ." Milly said, JJ ran over to her looking at her face, although there were lots of hits, there wasn't much damage, split lip, black eye, bruised jaw. She began to groan and sat up, "Hey, baby." JJ whispered, "What happened?" "Rafe and Barry. But we gotta go." "Alright." JJ pulled her up and they went to get the boat ready. 

"Dude, where is he?" Kie asked, as everyone else was helping with the boat. "Give him a second." "He'll be here." "He's coming." "He'll be fine." they all reassured her, they turned to the blue SUV as it pulled up, "JJ!" MJ raised her voice, "Yeah, everyone on the boat." he replied. They all watched as the people got out the car, "Wait. No way." JJ was shocked, "No f'ing way." Pope couldn't believe it, "I'm sorry." Kie shook her head, "You've gotta be kidding me." MJ laughed, "Shoupe let us take it for a spin." SJ replied running over and hugging her sister, "Okay. That's believable, I buy it for now." Milly giggled. "It wasn't easy, but I got the Phantom for you, and she runs like it was made yesterday. You ready to go?" "Uh-- yeah." they both nodded, "So you have plenty of fuel and food. once you get around that point, it's a straight shot across the sound to Dismal Swamp, okay? Once you both get there, lay low alright? Hang out for a couple of weeks and then go overland, cross the border at Brownsville, you got it? Brownsville." JJ reminded them, "Yeah. Yeah Brownsville." John B repeated, "Alright. Saddle her up saltwater cowboy. Let's do this." John B and SJ climbed on, "Hey, hey. I'm sorry for basically throwing us off a cliff with this whole treasure hunt thing." John B apologised his arm around SJ, "Hey, John B, yo... we were bound to run off a cliff as some point, right?" JJ said putting his arm over Pope and MJ who had her arm over Kie and Milly was by Pope. Everyone laughed, "At Least we did it together though." Milly said, "Pogue style." JJ nodded, "Pogue style." SJ whispered, "Get out of here! please." Kie said, "Now." Pope nodded, "Hey sis!" MJ stopped SJ, "Yeah?" "See you in 2 months." "See you in 2 months." "John B? Take care of my sister for me." "I swear on my life." he smiled. MJ stepped back tears in her eyes just like SJ, the 2 of them had never been apart for longer than a day. "We'll see you in 2 months down in Mexico." Pope nodded, "Tell Sarah we said goodbye, okay?" John B asked and they all nodded. "Don't forget. Cross the border at Brownsville, okay?" they pushed the boat out and they drove off, all 5 of the Pogue's watching them go. JJ had MJ sobbing in his chest, Milly and Pope stood not taking their eyes off the boat and Kie had tears in her eyes, none of them falling but they were still there. They all walked away, "Guys we gotta get out of here the car probably has a track--" they all went to run but cop cars pulled up, "hands up! I wanna see your hands!" the SBI agent yelled, Milly and Kie stood at the back with their hands up, Pope in the middle and JJ and MJ hands stayed linked as they put their hands up, "We;re too late. He's gone. God damn it! Bracher, have your guys stand down. Let me talk to these kids. Where the hell are they? Where the hell are they? JJ I see you are living up to your name. MJ where is your sister?" Shoupe said, "Who?" she asked, "You twin, god damnit." "I have a twin." "Don't be like this Max, what would your parents say?" Shoupe asked, "I don't know they have been dead for most of my life and I can tell you now I'm looking at the person who couldn't be bothered to make their death a case, you just said, 'oh they are dead.' and did you actually ask Ward everything that happen or did you just believe the first thing you heard?" MJ asked, everyone shocked at her response, "Pope how about you? This isn't a fucking game! You can do the right thing now! Where'd he go?" Shoupe kept asking, "Suspect has left Station 26 in a small boat." the SBI agent said, "Come with us." they were all taken in cars the location where all the SBI's were. When they got out of the car there were cameras and the news askin questions, "Right to you left here." they were all sat in chairs, "Sit down and don't move. We have a lot to talk about." there was a tall SBI agent literally glaring at them, MJ was sat at one end and JJ was at the other and right now all they wanted was each other, MJ stood up, "Where do you think you are going?" the agent asked, "My boyfriend." she said, "You can't--" MJ cut the agent off by going over and sitting on JJ's lap, "I'm still here there is no problem." she said. 

John B and SJ were now on the water just outside of the 'facility' that was made, they were on dark mode and hadn't been spotted. Yet. "I think we are in the clear." John B muttered, "Yeah." SJ smiled, they looked back to the island and noticed that all the lights and power was coming back on, "no, no, please, no." SJ began to mutter and then a bright light shone on them, "Go, go, go, John B! Into the storm!" SJ yelled, "What?" "Into the storm!" she repeated and they drove of into the storm 4 boats following them too. They were soaked now and they weren't going to turn back, "What do we do John B." "Baby, I would rather die than go to jail." "I would rather die than be without you." the 2 kissed and a wave crashed over them, "Hold on!" John B pulled SJ to his chest and they hugged as tight as they could. SJ kept thinking of her whole life, knowing this would probably be the last time she would breath. Memories poured into her head, filled with her sister and John B, the Pogues. "John B?" "Yeah?" "I love you!" "I love you too Sadie Jones!" that were their last words before a wave came over and capsized the boat. 

All 5 of the teens waited in anticipation, none of them had heard anything for about an hour, their heads all shot over to the 4 officers who walked in, they all stood up and walked to them, "Did you find them?" Pope asked, "No." "So they got away?" Kie questioned, "We, uh... we lost them. I'm sorry." Shoupe said, MJ stepped forward, "What do you mean 'you lost them'? You lost their connection or th-they're dead?" MJ raised her voice as tears spilled down her face, "They took an open boat in a tropical depression, Max." Shoupe told her, "you killed them, you killed my sister! This is all your fault if you listened. But no! Kids are always to blame! You did this! You drove them straight through the storm! You bastards!" MJ pushed Shoupe back multiple times, 2 SBI agents came over grabbing her arms and pulling her back making her fall to the floor, "Hey! Don't touch her like that!" JJ said shoving one of the agents then the other, he pulled up the sobbing girl and brought her to his chest, Milly was silently crying into Pope's chest as Kie leant onto the table hyperventilating. They all looked up to see Milly's, Kie's and Pope's parents walk in, Kie ran over and was enveloped into a hug by them, Pope and Milly doing the same, MJ and JJ only had each other now, they stayed hugging each other until Heyward pulled the 2 into a hug. Everything was falling apart again.

the next morning John B woke up his body sprawled across the boat, coughing he said, "SJ? SJ? Sadie? Sadie?" he saw her passed out on the other end of the boat. Her head shot up when a mini wave went over her face, coughing she looked around, "SJ?" "John B?" "SJ? Hey. I'm coming. It's alright. I'm coming." he swam over to her and pulled her in for a hug, SJ gripped onto a rope which was on the bottom of the boat, the 2 kisses and kept reassuring each other it was okay. SJ looked around and spotted the only thing they need right now, "A boat." she whispered, "hey..... HEY!" "HELP!" they repeatedly yelled and slashed, SJ pulled the gold out and used the sun as a reflecting device. The boat honked its horn and SJ kept flashing the gold. They 2 began to cry at the sight when they saw the boats light flashing too. The boat finally came and they climbed up the ladder and were given blankets, "Thank god we found you. Hey, Larry! Get some coffee on!" one said, they were taken into the driving room to get warm and John B asked, "Where did you say you were going again?" John B asked, "Nassau." the guy replied and SJ looked up to John B smiling, "The Bahamas."

"The gold."
