One with the Pogues [jj x reader]

18. Sarah and John B

"I wonder where John B and Sarah are right now." JJ says as we enter Charleston.

"These Kooks make our Kooks look like Pogues." I say looking at the houses.
"You sure this is the place, Pope?" JJ asks leaning over me to see.
"Pretty sure."
"Alright." We all get out of the car.

There's a spiked fence.
"These spikes to keep people out?" JJ asks.
"No." Kie says.
"The slave quarters are over there. These were to keep people in."

We walk around and knock on the door.
"You think that was too much?"
"It echoed the whole house."
"They definitely heard it."
"Maybe they're not home."

Pope knocks again and the door opens. It's a man. He looks at us carefully.
"You must be Pope." He points.
"Are you Mr. Limbrey?"
"Ms. Limbrey was expecting you yesterday."
"I'm sorry the car broke down on the way." Pope says.
"Carburetor blew up in the middle of Nowheresville." JJ times in.

"Yeah, she was real upset you didn't show."
"We tried calling but there wasn't a number." I say.
"She also expected you to come alone."
"I mean these are my friends. They helped find the royal merchant too. I-."
"The instructions were explicit. Your friends can stay outside."
"We're kinda a packaged deal man." JJ says.
"It's fine, I got this." He says.
"Okay." Kie says grabbing his hand.

Pope goes inside and we walk to the car.

"Look if Limbrey's legit, then Ward gets arrested, and maybe Sarah gets the gold." Kie says as we see Pope be walked out. Pope is looking at us but he's being moved.

"Does that look voluntary?"
"That would be a negative."
"Come on."
"Wait hold on." I say grabbing her arm.
"What?"
"They're going into the alley."
"Go around back." Kie says to JJ.
"We'll meet them on the other side."

We go back and can't see them.
"What if they went underground. Cause in C.H.U.D. when they took people down into the sewers, it'd turn the humans into humanoids."
"JJ. Focus. That doesn't make any sense." I say.
"You see him?"
"No.

"Stop, I see them." I say. JJ stops the car and we run.

Pope and the guy are on the floor fighting. JJ kicks the taser towards us. I grab it.
"Come on!" Kie yells.
"Pope!" Pope punches him.
"Let's go!" I yell. We jump the brick wall and get in the car.

He's following us.
"This is a one way."
"Go left."
"This is a one way!" We yell. JJ isn't listening.

There's another car.
"Turn!" JJ turns and almost hits people.
"Those were people!" Pope yells.

"JJ, calm down!" I yell.
"I'll lose him." He says turning. The car stops and smoke gets everywhere.

"He said he fixed the carburetor."
"Shit!" I say getting out.
"Okay, what now Mario?" Kie asks as we get out.
"Number one rule. Never trust mechanics!"

The guy pulls up behind us.
"Go!" I yell starting to run.
"Guys, I think he has a gun!" Kie yells.
"Shit, get down!"
"Get in the alley way!"

"We might have to split! I don't know where to go. We gotta lose them!" JJ yells before bumping into a guy with boxes.
"Sorry!"

We turn.
"He's gaining, let's go!"

My legs feel like they're going to dissolve.

We get out and almost bump into a bike. It's John B and Sarah. I swear time freezes for a second.

"Get in! Come on!" They yell.

Kie and I jump in as JJ and Pope push it while John B pedals.

I hug Sarah.
