"We have to go!" Sarah worries, immediately pulling me to her side and keeping a hold of my black hoodie.

"Let's go! John B! Get back on, man!" JJ screams to John B who is still down the well.

John B yells back but it's muffled and we can't hear it. All five of us grab onto the rope and get ready to pull John B up, but Kiara physically takes my burnt palms off the rope with a warning look.

"Come on!" Sarah hurries the brunette and I pout, crossing my arms over my chest.

"Three, two, one, pull!" Pope shouts.

They all pull at the rope roughly and fall backwards due to the fact John B isn't on the other end, making me a little grateful to Kiara for not letting me help.

"Jeez" JJ mutters.

I hold my hand out to Sarah and then Kiara, helping both girls onto their feet as the boys heave themselves up in annoyance.

"Where the hell is he?!" Pope snaps.

"Shh! Shh!" Kiara tries to quieten us down.

"John B!" JJ hollers loudly.

"Shh!" Makoa snaps at the blonde.

John B screams something incoherent to us and I look at the others to see if they could decipher his yelling, but they seem as confused as I do.

"What's he saying?" JJ asks.

"I don't understand him" I shrug.

"JJ! Makoa! Pope! Kie!" I hear John B scream.

"Yo, he's drowning! We gotta pull him up!" Kiara orders and they all jump to grab the rope.

"Drowning?" I gape in horror, ignoring Kiara and my stinging palms to help the others pull John B up.

"Hey, John B! Get back on the rope! We're gonna pull you back up, okay, buddy?!" Pope yells down at John B.

"Come on! Pull!" Sarah snaps.

"Okay, everybody, help!" JJ demands.

"Everyone is helping!" Makoa retorts.

"Guys!" Kiara warns them.

"Okay, I'm on!" John B shouts.

"Yes! Yeah" Sarah says in relief.

"Okay" JJ nods, getting ready.

"Let's go!" Pope declares and we all start pulling our friend out the well.

We groan and huff as we heave him to the surface and my eyes water a little with the pain in my hands but I push through it, focusing on the fact John B is in trouble.

"Pull!" Pope groans and a loud gunshot rings through the basement, causing my heart to drop.

I scream loudly in fear and everyone lets go of the rope, Kiara and Sarah tackling me to the ground while JJ, Makoa and Pope catch the rope to save John B.

"Shit! Hang on!" JJ tells John B.

"Pope! JJ! Makoa! What the hell?!" John B barks.

"Climb up! Help me! Hang on!" JJ answers.

"You gotta climb, man!" Makoa yells.

"Tie it up now, man!" Pope groans as JJ ties the rope to a pillar.

"Pope, Makoa, hide!" JJ snaps, diving down next to the boys.

"Let's go! Go!" Kiara yells, pulling Sarah and I to hide with her.

"She can't aim for shit" The dark haired girl then states, looking at the blind woman with the shotgun and the sight of the woman's milky eyes sends chills down my spine.

"She can't see" Sarah realises, grabbing my hand when she notices me trembling.

"We need to leave" I whimper, breathing shakily.

A loud gunshot goes off again and I'm yanked to my feet by Sarah.

"Shit! Go, Alli! Go, Sarah!" Kiara screams as we race towards the basement door.

I run as fast as my weak legs will take me, dodging trees and branches with agility I didn't know I possessed, the others following close behind me.

"Can we go now?!" I hear JJ shout.

"Get into the car!" Sarah hollers and I practically throw myself into the vehicle.

"Go, go!" Pope snaps as he and JJ dive into the van after the girls.

JJ jumps into the driver seat while Makoa slips into the passenger seat, Sarah and Kiara siting either side of me with concerned expressions.

"Where is he?" Kiara asks worriedly.

"Wasn't he right behind you guys?" I question in anxiety.

"Come on, start the car. Go!" Pope demands and JJ complies, turning the key as the van roars to life.

As JJ slowly starts driving the van forward, I hear a gunshot and John B jumps over the wall into our line of sight.

"Why are we always getting shot at?!" Pope shrieks.

"I don't know, but I don't like it!" I counter in panic, gripping onto Sarah who rubs my back soothingly.

"Come on! John B, run!" Kiara shouts back at the boy.

"Wait! Wait, wait, wait, wait!" John B shouts as he chases after the van.

"Get in!" Kiara screams and the brunette throws himself into the back of the van with us.

"Whoa!" He breathes out as JJ speeds up.

"Oh, shit" Kiara gasps.

"Oh, my God" Pope chuckles breathily.

"JJ, drive!" Sarah hollers and he speeds up some more.

"Go, dude!" Pope agrees with my best friend.

"Are you okay? Are you shot?" JJ questions and I look the brunette boy over for injuries in worry.

"No" John B shakes his head.

"You good?" Pope asks.

"Yeah, yeah" John B nods.

"I think i'd know if I was shot, right?" Kiara asks before turning to me and physically inspecting me for injuries until I gently slap her fussing hands away.

"You look disgusting" Pope tells John B, who is covered head to toe in dirt.

"God, you smell like ass" Kiara groans.

"No, definitely worse" I gag, holding my nose.

"What the hell just happened?" Sarah pants.

"All time Pogue Hall of Fame, baby" JJ cheers, grinning at Makoa widely in a way that makes me smile myself.

"Hell yeah. That bitch is possessed" Kiara breathes out.

"That bitch can't aim!" Sarah counters, making me laugh.

"How does she move that fast?" Pope asks in horror.

"Maybe she ran track back in the day?" I suggest.

"She's possessed!" Kiara repeats.

"I don't get it" Pope huffs.

"She's blind" Kiara then adds.

"She's like Master Yoda" JJ chirps.

"Dunno" Sarah shrugs.

"It makes no sense, scientifically" Pope states.

"She does yoga" Kiara states confidently.

"Pilates!" I counter with a grin and she grins right back at me.

"Oh, God" JJ sighs, leaning back in his chair.

"What is that?" Kiara's head turns to John B and I follow her gaze to see a bar of gold in his hand.

"No, you didn't!" Sarah snaps in disbelief.

"We did it, baby!" John B cheers and I gasp in surprise.

"What the fuck?!" I shriek with wide eyes.

"I did it!" John B hollers, wide smile on his face.

"No fucking way!" Makoa shouts back at us.

"Oh, my God!" JJ yells and everyone starts screaming in complete awe.

"Holy shit! Holy shit!" Kiara screams as we all jump around, screaming in celebration at our victory.

"That's gold!" JJ declares.

"Wait! Wait! Guys, we're gonna be rich!" Kiara declares in realisation.

"Full Kook!" JJ grins excitedly.

"Like Kook rich!" Sarah and I add in unison, grinning at each other.

We all start chanting the words 'Full Kook' until we get tired of it with sore throats and just resort to laughing loudly together.
