They had the location of the wreck, the only thing missing was the subaquatic drone so they could see the gold of the Royal Merchant.

"Pope, we're not stealing the drone. We're borrowing it" John b told him as they had been all the way complaining

"Humans are the only animals that can't tell fantasy from reality" Pope quoted making Summer turn to look at him furrowing her eyebrows

"Did you come up with that?" John b asked him

"Albert Bernstein came up with it" Pope answered

"Look Pope, it's all right, you are not risking your scholarship with this" Summer tried to calm him down, she knew how important the scholarship was for Pope

"But that quote applies to this whole treasure-hunting thing" Pope continued rambling about the whole fantasy versus reality thing "So, which is it? Fantasy or reality?" Pope questioned looking at all his friends

"Why are you so weird, Pope?" Summer heard JJ ask making her laugh

"My thoughts exactly" She high-fived with JJ, but everyone just stared at them both

"What? we are the dream team" JJ said making Summer nod and smile

"It's fantasy, but possible reality" Kie answered Pope's question

"Reality" John b nodded convinced. Summer smiled at him and grabbed his hand, she knew how important this was for him

"Keep the signal clear" Pope said as JJ closed his lighter. They all knew what they had to do to get that drone.

Kie was in charge of distracting the guard by faking a low tire, while the rest broke into the storage room for the drone.

"Go, go, go, go" JJ shouted as soon as they saw the security guard leave with Kie.

JJ, Pope, John b and Summer managed to get pass the gate just before it closed. JJ had the combination of the lock in a post it because his father used to work there, so they made their way towards it and just waited for JJ to enter the numbers.

"Do you have the right numbers?" Pope asked him as John b and Summer kept watch in case the security guard came back

"Alright so I might have the wrong numbers"JJ sighed making Summer turn around after she heard what he said

"What?" she asked

"Damn it!" Pope groaned frustrated

Summer was trying to figure out what they could do when she heard something, something like a dog barking.

"Hey! Do you hear that?" She asked the three boys

When they turned around they saw a dog barking and running towards them, they were caught.

"Oh shit" she said looking at John b. She was terrified of dogs and he knew that.

"That's a cougar, it's okay" John b tried to calm her down as he tried to open the lock

"That is not making it better" She turned around and JJ trying to get the dog to stop barking

"Look, go with Pope back to the van, I'll meet you there" John b told her as he kept trying to open the lock

"Pope! C'mon!" she grabbed the boys hand and both of them made their way back to the van

A few minutes later, John b appeared with the drone, then came Kie and finally JJ, that as he told her, he had saved all their asses.

There was nothing Summer loved more than eating at The Wreck after a long day, and that was exactly what they were going to do.
