"How's it feeling?"
"Feels good."
It was the following morning and the four had already begun to test the weight of the winch. Pope set up the pulley system and everything, and was controlling it as Kie was sitting in the winch. JJ and Claire were just sitting on the edge of the hot tub with their feet in the water watching.
"Alright, taking you down."
"Okay."
"John B pullin' a Houdini." JJ said.
"Yeah, where is he? I got my scholarship interview tomorrow morning, we gotta get this done." Pope said.
"Didn't he have that fishing thing with Sarah's dad this morning?" Claire asked.
"Speak of the devil. Hey!" JJ announced as John B walked into view. "Dude, I set up the entire winch to pull up the gold and everything."
"No, he did not. I did that." Pope said.
John B just walked straight past and ignored them.
"Hey, John B."
"Okay, that's it?"
"Uh...what's that all about?" Pope asked, he and Kie coming over to JJ and Claire.
"I was gonna ask you the same question." JJ said, getting out of the tub.
Claire did the same and the friends went inside to see what was up with John. He was searching through different cabinets and drawers in an awfully big hurry.
"What are you looking for, JB?" Claire asked. He ignored her.
"Bro, what's going on, man?"
John B pulled out the gun from underneath a pillow on the futon.
"John B, what do you need the gun for?" JJ asked, marching up to his best friend. "Talk to us!"
John B just shoved JJ onto the futon and walked off.
"John B, chill!" Kie exclaimed.
Pope stood in front of him. "What are you JJ now?"
"Dude!"
"What are you doing?!"
John B pushed Pope into the table and stormed out.
