"𝐔𝐡-𝐨𝐡!" Pope shouted.

"You forget your keys or something? You need a tow?"

"You gotta admit, it was funny."

Currently, the boys and Emerson went off to go pick up Kie and Sarah from where they left them. They were joking around since the girls fell into their trap.

"Mastermind, huh?"

"Some patriarchal bullshit."

"Yeah, that sucked." the girls said.

"Did you know about this?" Kie asked Emerson. "Not until after. I was sleeping." Emerson responded.

"We're both gonna get you back when you least expect it." Sarah told the boys. "Can I join?" Emerson asked and the girls nodded.

"Watch your back boys."

"I, for one, welcome that challenge." Pope said. "So, did you guys, you know..." Pope asked. "Reconcile our differences? Not even close." Kie said.

"But we're willing to work together." Sarah said. "You know what? That's victory." John B said and the boys nodded. "Woogity-woogity-woogity."

"Alright, you guys ready to jack someone up?" John B asked and everyone nodded and smiled at each other.

···

"Emerson, wake up." Emerson heard a voice, shaking her to wake up. "What?" she groaned. "We're here." Emerson opened her eyes to find everyone staring at her. "Stop staring at me, you creeps." she said, as everyone hopped off the van.

"Ready to finish what they started?" John B asked Emerson. "Definitely." she smiled.

As everyone hopped over the stone wall, Emerson couldn't help but find the house creepy. Although she didn't believe in the stories of the Crain family, the house looked extremely creepy at night.

As the group walked in front of the house, suddenly the motion sensor lights went off.

"Shit!"

"Oh, shit!"

"Go, go, go, go!"

"Flashlights!"

"Shh!"

"Okay, so she has motion sensor lights." Pope spoke up. "Yeah no shit." Emerson said.

"We could, uh, move really slowly, maybe?" JJ said. Everyone turned to him and gave him confused looks. "Are you that dumb? That's not how it works." Emerson smacked his head.

"Oh, shit. Let's throw a rock at it." John B suggested. "That's a really good idea, actually. Let the axe murderer know that we're here." Kie saracastically said.

"You have a better idea?" John B asked, annoyed. "Babe, anything but that." Emerson said. Everyone looked at each other confused since Emerson has never called John B that before.

"What about the breaker? Where's the breaker?" Emerson asked. "On the porch. We used to play hide-and-seek here as kids. And if we were brave enough, we'd go all the way up to the porch. I've seen it." Sarah said, and Emerson stood up immediately.

"No, no. You're not going in that house alone." John B said, grabbing Emerson's wrist. "Watch me." Emerson said confidently.

"Crain chops people into pieces." JJ spoke up. "If you believe that, but she's like what, 85? She's probably barely still kicking." Emerson said and stood up again. John B wouldn't let go of her wrist though.

"Here, we'll go with you." Sarah said, pointing at herself and Kie. Emerson nodded and gave John B a kiss on the cheek for reassurance. "If I die, tell your kids about me." Emerson joked before walking up to the porch with the girls.

"Hey, be safe." John B stopped them. "We will." Emerson assured him as they walked away.

"Be safe." JJ said, holding Pope's face in his hands. "I'll be so safe. I'll be so safe for you." Pope continued the joke. "Can you guys stop? Stop!" John B whispered-yelled. "I'm gonna kill you." he threatened. "But how would that keep us safe?" Pope looked back at JJ and John B.

"I'm sorry I'm worried about my girlfriend." John B rolled his eyes. "Girlfriend?" JJ blurted out loud, which made Pope smack his hand on JJ's mouth. "Sorry." JJ mumbled. Then they saw the light go off, which indicated that the girls reached the breaker.

···

"So what's going on between you and John B?" Sarah asked Emerson as they were walking up to the porch. "He's my boyfriend." Emerson simply replied.

Kie gasped. "Finally! I've been waiting for this moment since I first met y'all. The ship has finally sailed." Kie sighed dramatically. Emerson playfully rolled her eyes and shoved Kie, but couldn't help the smile on her face.

When the girls reached the porch, their smiles dropped. The breaker wasn't on the porch. It lead inside the house. "Oh you have to be fucking with me right now." Kie whispered-shouted. "Come on." Emerson said, slowly opening the creaky door.

As the girls went inside, they slowly made their way to the breakers. Kie switched the breakers off, which made a loud noise. They thought they were clear, until they heard a noise. They gasped and hid behind a wall.

All of a sudden, they heard a bunch of thumping sounds. It didn't take long for them to realize that it was footsteps, and that Mrs. Crain was headed downstairs. "Shit." Kie whispered.

"It's, it's late Leon. Too late." They heard Mrs. Crain say. Emerson and Kie put their hands over their mouths, so that they wouldn't make a sound.

"I can hear you, Leon." Mrs. Crain said, entering the same room the girls were in. "I've been waiting all night!" she screamed, while turning around to face the girls.

Sarah screamed, while Kie and Emerson sprinted out of the room. Sarah and Emerson took one way, while Kie took another. When Emerson noticed Kie wasn't there with them, she went back to go find her.

She turned the corner to where all the screaming was coming from to find Mrs. Crain, swinging a fire poker at Kie. Emerson tried to stop one of the swings, but it ended up stabbing her wrist. She screamed in pain, but eventually got the fire poker out of Mrs. Crain's grasp.

"Come on, this way!" Sarah guided them. They went into a room and closed the door shut. Seconds later, Mrs. Crain was smashing the wooden door, which made the girls scream. They found a way to get to get the basement to tell the boys that they had to leave.

"Guys!" the girls screamed.

"What's going on?" Pope asked. "Crain, she's up there. She tried to kill us with a fire poker." Kie said, while the girls gasped for air. Emerson's wrist was in so much pain, but she sucked it up wanting to get out of the property quickly.

"We gotta get the fuck outta here."

"We gotta go."

"We locked her in the parlor, but we gotta go." the girls informed them.

"Okay, code red. Let's go. John B! Get back on, man!" Everyone shouted down the well. They tried to pull him up, only to realize he wasn't on the rope.

"I found the gold! Em, JJ, Kie, Pope!" John B tried to scream from the tiny hole he was in, but everyone on the surface thought he was drowning.

"Yo, he's drowning! We gotta pull him up! John B!"

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

"Come on! Pull!"

"Come on!"

They all screamed at John B, but little did they know, Mrs. Crain was coming down the steps with an unexpected weapon from a blind, old woman.

Once John B was on the rope, they all tried to pull him up as fast as they could. But before he got all the way up, they heard a familiar sound: 𝘨𝘶𝘯𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘵𝘴.

Everyone hid behind something, while the boys tied the rope so that John B could get up on his own.

"She can't aim for shit."

"She can't see."

"She's blind." the girls said, but they spoke too soon. Because of the sound of the girls' voices, Mrs. Crain shot right at there direction. The girls screamed, while everyone made their way out. One person didn't leave though. She wasn't going to leave until John B was out safely.

Emerson tried to grab the gun from Mrs. Crain's grasp, while Mrs. Crain kept firing shots. She hoped that John B was almost out soon, and that neither of them would get shot. A couple seconds later, she saw a figure coming out of the well.

"Come on, Em!" John B shouted, while Emerson pushed Mrs. Crain so that they could run away. They both jumped over the stone wall to find the van, driving away slowly.

"Em! John B!"

"Come on, guys!"

"Get in!" they all screamed, as Emerson and John B made their way inside the van. Everyone was gasping for air, while JJ was driving the vehicle.

"Oh my gosh!"

"Holy shit!"

"JJ, drive!"

"Are you okay? Are you shot?" Everyone screamed inside the van. "I think I'd know if I was shot, right?" Kie asked, and everyone agreed. Sarah quickly wrapped Emerson's wrist with one of John B's bandanas to stop the bleeding.

"You look disgusting." Pope said to John B, who was covered in mud.

"Gosh, you smell like ass."

"What the heck just happened?"

"All-time Pogue Hall of Fame, baby."

"That bitch is possessed."

"That bitch can't aim."

"How does she move that fast?"

Everyone continued to scream, but Emerson noticed something in John B's hand. She made eye contact with him, and they both smiled. 𝘞𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘶𝘤𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘨𝘰𝘭𝘥.

"No you fucking didn't!" Emerson shouted, making everyone look at John B. "We did it, baby!" John B shouted and everyone started screaming loudly once again.

"Wait, wait! Guys, we're gonna be rich!" Kie screamed. "Full kook! Like kook rich!"

"FULL KOOK! FULL KOOK! FULL KOOK! FULL KOOK!"
