16) Crain house
"I'm sorry you're staying where" Kie asked. "Tannyhill" John B said. "So, you're living with Sarah Cameron" Kie said.
"Okay look the only reason I'm living there is because her dad bailed me out right and it's way better than foster care which by the way is where Adi and I were about to go if Ward didn't" John B said when Adeline interrupted.
"I knew I forgot to mention something yeah I'm no longer in trouble with the CPS Rafe helped me out don't ask why because I have no idea" Adeline said and John B nodded at her.
"They told me to tell you if you want, you're free to stay there too you can share a room with Sarah" John B said.
"I wouldn't be caught dead living with the Cameron's I'd rather sleep on the streets" Adeline said.
"Hey so do you have a membership to the clubs now" Pope asked.
"I don't know Pope" John B said. "What about those golf charts they drive around you get one of them" JJ asked.
"Does it come with a sweater vest or do you have to buy one of those on your own" Alex asked.
"Look you promised you said you weren't with her" Kie said. "Bro just own it she got you" JJ said. "Probably shouldn't have lied to her" Alex told John B.
"Look if you wanna hang out with her that's fine but I'm letting you know right now that I'm not doing anything with Sarah" Kie said.
"Do you guys see her here" John B asked. "Not unless she's invisible" Alex said. "Okay no time for jokes" Adeline said playfully hitting Alex's arm.
"No right okay a little focus would be fantastic we've got the map right" John B said.
"Well, it's all out of whack cause the guy was ganja'd when he drew it" JJ said. "It's cause the coast has changed" Kie said.
"So, we just have to look for landmarks that haven't changed" Pope said. "What about the old forts" John B asked.
"Battery Jasper" Alex said and pointed to it. "Nice work Alex" Adeline said.
"Oh, and before we go" Adeline said and slapped John B on the back of his head. "Ow Adi" John B said. "That's for not telling me you were okay" Adeline said.

"We're in battery right here" Pope said and pointed to it. "So, if this is parcel nine then it's somewhere northeast of here" Pope said and pointed where it was at.
"Somewhere over there" Kie said. "Right" Pope said. "Over there, guys that's not Tannyhill that's a subdivision" JJ said.
"Tannyhill plantation used to be the entire island" Adeline said. "It got sold into smaller pieces over time" John B added. "So, we're just looking for an old stone wall" Alex said.
They all then got in the car and John B drove away. "Okay so the road should split up here" Pope said.
"Okay" John B said. "Alright you're gonna take a left" Pope said as John B did.
"That looks like a stone wall to me" JJ said. "Then this is it" Alex said. "Not the Crain house" John B said, and they all got out of the car. "Are you kidding me" Kie said.
"Not this place" Adeline said. "I still get spooked of this place" Alex said.
"Worst case scenario" JJ said. "Why'd it, have to be here, of all places" Pope asked.
"I heard that Mrs. Crain buried her husband's head on the property" JJ said. "Okay why'd you have to say that of all things why" Adeline asked.

"Look you guys know, who's house this is right" Kie asked. "Oh yeah no I do" JJ said.
"Look honestly I don't really believe the stories of this place" John B said. "Shh" Pope and Alex told John B.
"What" John B said. "Just stay quiet and don't jinx us I don't feel like getting murdered" Adeline said. "Which stories did you hear" JJ asked Kie.
"The one where she killed her husband with an axe and that she's been holed up ever since on certain nights when the moon is full you can see her in the window" Kie said.
"Oh, geez no it's not funny cause it's all true" JJ said. "If she comes out of that house I'm running" Alex said.
"I swear to god guys this is all real I knew Hollis jeez" JJ said.
"Wait you knew Hollis Crain" Alex asked. "Yeah dude" JJ said and Pope faced JJ with Alex. "Dude how do you know Hollis Crain" Pope asked JJ.
"She was my babysitter man she told me all about it told me the truth about her mother and what happened in this house so as a kid she heard all the stories that her mother killed her father, and she was a murderer, and all Hollis didn't believe it until that night" JJ said.
"What night" John B asked. "It all came back to her" JJ told him.
"When Hollis was six years old she heard her parents arguing downstairs so she goes downstairs to see her mom washing her hands in a sink full of blood her mother just says that she cut her finger the next morning she says her father and her split up but then Hollis noticed something her mother going into the parlor constantly in and out and in and out with plastic bags weeks pass and Hollis decides to use the outhouse and as she's using it she looks down and there in the outhouse is her father's head looking straight back at her" JJ said.
"God you are so full of crap" John B said. "Dude, I swear to god man" JJ said. "Did she call the police" Alex asked.
"She didn't have time" JJ said. "We can't do this" Pope said and John B was going to leave when JJ stopped him. "Wait dude hold up" JJ said going to John B.
"What" John B said as Pope and Adeline went to him. "You sure you wanna do this" JJ asked. "We can still back out" Adeline said.
"She's an axe murderer man you got a cast on" JJ said. "I don't give a crap if she's an axe murderer okay I got nothing to lose right you, coming or what" John B said.
"If I get murdered, I'm so haunting you" Adeline told John B.
"Come on" Kie said as she left with John B, Pope, and Alex. JJ and Adeline looked at each other before following them.
"Don't worry Ads I'll keep you safe" JJ told her as she smiled at him. "Hey, come on come here" John B told Kie, Pope, Alex, JJ, and Adeline.
"So, here's the plan we need to look for the wheat near the water like it said in Denmark's letter" John B said. "Okay like what kind of water like pond water" Pope asked.
"Bong water" JJ said laughing. "Pond water pond beer the p" Alex told JJ.
"No, it, it just said look for water okay" John B said. "That's the crappiest secret message ever" Kie said.
"You wanna complain a little more Kie nobody said it was gonna be easy" John B said.
"I'll search the northwest quadrant with Alex you and Adi search the northwest quadrant" Pope said leaving with Alex. "The decapitation quadrant" JJ said.
"Come on" Adeline said leading JJ and they all looked. Moments later John B saw something.
"Hey psst hey come on it's the only place we haven't looked" John b told them. "Here we go" John B and they all went inside.
"Down came Mrs. Crain and cut off all our heads" JJ sang. "Up came the sun and dried up all the blood" Alex sang along with him. "Can you stop" Pope asked.
"Yeah, both of you" Adeline told JJ and Alex. "See any water" Kie asked before swatting at a mosquito. "Another dead and" Kie said.
"There's not even water on the pipes" JJ said. "There's no water here" Pope said. "Not even a drop" Alex said. "Know why we didn't find it bad karma" Kie said.
"Oh god here we go" John B said. "You know we had a good thing going and then you decide to rope in Barbie and now the trail's gone dry coincidence probably not" Kie told John B.
"This is exactly why I didn't wanna tell you about Sarah" John B said. "Yeah" Kie said.
"Yeah" John b said. "What's the deal what's going on with you two" John B asked. "Nothing" Kie said.
"Nothing is it because I kissed you is that the problem" John B asked and Kie slapped him surprising JJ, Adeline, Pope, and Alex. "Well, that was unexpected" Adeline said.
"Stop treating me like I'm some girls that's obsessed with you instead of your best friend who's actually trying to look out for you" Kie said.
"Did you uh hit me" John b asked and Kie shown her hand showing a mosquito. "Skeeter" Kie said.
"Skeeter" John B asked. "Yeah, you see it" Kie asked. "Yeah" John B said and slapped Kie. "Oh hey" JJ said. "Okay" Pope said. "Dude" Alex said.
"Where's your proof" Kie asked, and John B shown the mosquito. "Yeah, there was probably one right there" Kie said. "There's one right there" John B said.
"Yeah, really cause you saw that" Kie said. "On your forehead" John b said. "You're dead that's it today's the day that you die" Kie said.
"Jesus" Pope said. "Today's your funeral" Kie told John B. "One bandito" Kie said.
"These things are a freakin swarm" Pope said as he and Alex slapped themselves. "You see this" Kie asked John B.
"Hey shh keep it down" JJ said. "You know how this ends" John b said. "Okay what is up with skeeters" Adeline said slapping herself.
"Why are there so many mosquitos in a basement" Pope asked. "Dude, I know seriously tiny vampire bats just leave me alone" JJ said and slapped himself.
"Oh my gosh can we leave cause I'm already urchin to leave hah punny" JJ said.
"Seriously can we go I had enough of these skeeters" Alex asked. "I just found Mrs. Crain's voodoo doll guys" JJ said.
"Creepy" Adeline told JJ. "Alright can we leave this cause, this is getting" JJ said. "Skeeter for real" Kie said. Pope went to move a board and John B stopped him.
"Hey, help me move this, help me move this" Pope told John B. "Okay just quiet" John B said, and they all helped Pope move the boards.
"Shh" John B said. "Guys, guys" Kie said. "Guys I know yeah, yeah, shh, shh" Pope said. "She's probably right upstairs" Adeline said. They all looked down and smiled.
"Well, well, well" Pope said. "That was a good dad joke" John B said. "They built this part of the house right over it" Kie said.
"This is where she hid the bodies" JJ said. "Oh, dude come on" Pope said. "Stop" Kie said. "I'm dead serious" JJ said. "Stop it" Kie said. "It was never an outhouse" Alex said agreeing with JJ.
"She probably doesn't even know it's here" Kie said. "We found water" Pope told John B.
"We're gonna need a really big rope" John B said. "Better get to looking for one" Adeline said.
