"John B? John B, i know you are there, son. i know you can hear me, and if you love my daughter like i think you love my daughter, then you will turn that boat around and come back. you are found into a storm that you cannot survive." Ward said through the radio getting in contact with John B and Sarah.

"John B, please, i will make it right. i promise you. come back." Ward said.

"no, don't listen to him. he's a liar." Sarah said.

"John B, i am begging you. think of her and then around." Ward kept talking hoping John B would reply, John B grabbed the radio calling back to Ward.

"Ward Cameron, do you hear me?" John B asked.

"yes. yes, son, i'm right here. i'm right here. please bring her back, okay? we'll work it all out when you get home." Ward said holding the radio tightly.

"you killed my father, and you framed me for a murder i didn't commit. you took everything from me! you took everything from me! but i'm still here. and i swear to God, Ward, i will come back one day and take whats mine. so, you listen to me, all right? i'm comin' for you. i'm coming for you." John B said setting the radio down.

the storm got worse and worse causing big waves to hit the boat which became more dangerous for the two that were on the phantom that flipped in the ocean. Shoupe went to the four teens letting them know they are going out to look for John B and Sarah to make sure they were okay. when the three officers came back the four friends stood up walking over to the officers hoping for good news.

"did you find them?" Pope asked.

"no." Shoupe shook his head.

"so, they got away?" Kiara asked.

"we, uh.. we lost them." Shoupe said.

"what? what do you mean you lost them?" Ace asked.

"i'm sorry." Shoupe replied.

"you lost them? what do you mean you lost them? like, they're gone? what are you talking about?" Pope asked frantically.

"they took an open boat into a tropical depression, Pope." Shoupe looked at them.

"so, they're dead?" Kiara asked, Ace grabbed her hair shaking her head feeling her eyes fill with tears.

"we don't know." Shoupe said.

"you drove them straight through the storm, man!" JJ yelled.

"i couldn't even go to you guys because you weren't gonna believe me, i was there! and you knew he didn't do anything wrong!" Ace yelled as tears streamed down her face, "you all knew!"

"Caroline, we're still looking." Plumb assured the girl trying to calm her down.

"are you kidding me? come here! i'm gonna kill you!" JJ yelled starting to fight with Shoupe.

"JJ, stop!" Kiara yelled.

"i'm gonna kill you, you bastard!" JJ continued to yell.

"hey!"

"babe! stop!" Ace cried trying to grab JJ from deputy Thomas. "let him go, please." she whimpered.

deputy Thomas, let go of JJ as Ace hugged him tightly crying into his chest, he shoved his face into the crook of her neck crying.

"he didn't kill anyone, and you know it!" Pope cried to Shoupe.

"we're still looking for him, all right?" Shoupe assured him.

the Heyward's, the Carrera's and the Hill's showed up seeing all their kids crying. Ace ran over to her parents hugging them tightly crying as they held onto their daughter.

"they didn't make it" she sobbed grabbing her dad's arm tightly.

"it's okay." he whispered.

"i'm sorry, mom, i'm so sorry" Ace cried harder holding them.

Ace turned her head to JJ as Heyward pulled him into their hug, she pulled away from her parents walking to her boyfriend yet again hugging him tightly as they all cried. the four hugged each other holding each other crying, their two best friends, were gone and they had no idea what to do without them or what to do next.

they all needed each other. now more than ever.
