The Redfield mystery

(A/N: noticed any spelling mistakes? Be sure to tell me xx)

For once, Y/N woke up in her own bed.The sun glared through the windows and into her eyes. She got up quickly and put on some grey shorts with a white, crochet crop top. Her eyes caught a red beanie in the corner of her room, might be cute, she thought and threw it onto her head. "Mum I'll be back later yeah?" "Fine." her mum waved dismissively. She had no idea what kind of trouble Y/N was getting in with her friends, not that she cared much. She was on her way down to John B's house when she turned and corner and saw all the Pogues in the Twinkie on the way to come and get her, she waved enthusiastically. "Hey guys!" She called. John B saw her in amidst the trees and drove over. The van jerked to a halt next to Y/N, and the side door slid open. Kie moved aside to make room for her."What we talking about?" She asked as she climbed in."Have a guess." Kie replied, looking directly at the compass in John B's hand."Just think about it" He said as the van set off again. "I mean a clue in a family heirloom. He had to know it would get back to me, right?"Pope looked over at John B with slight concern. His friend wasn't doing so well lately.. and now he seemed to be losing it."Yeah... it's possible." Said Kie, neither denying or confirming John B's theory.Pope spoke up, "it could also be possible that you're concocting wild theories to help with-" he softened his tone, "you know. Deal with your sad feels.""Pope." John B tried to cut him off but Pope kept going.In the back of the van JJ said to himself, "you know how I process my sad feels? Dank Nugs and the stickiest of ickies, that's how I do it." Drawing a chuckle from Y/N and Kie. "Stoners before boners dude" Kie laughed.John B's voice rose up louder in the van, "I'm not concocting okay? My dads trying to give me a message." There was an awkward silence of exchanged glances, filled with concern."If it helps you believe John B..." Nodded Kie gently.John B snapped again, saying, "look, I-I don't need a therapy session, okay?". Y/N bit her lip with discomfort and looked down, JJ squeezed her thigh comfortingly. Kie distracted herself with what was outside her window. Pope did the same, the tense energy growing."I'm not trippin out!" John B proclaimed."It's okay to trip bro, I would know but-" John B interrupted JJ, "look, my- dad is missing okay?"Y/N looked uncertain, "You keep telling us too look John B. But I'm not seeing anything.""Apart from concoctions." Muttered Pope."You don't know what it's like to have the person closest to you vanish. And then have no idea what happened. Just, wake up every Morning. Wondering."Kie looked around at the guilty faces in the van, "your right..." she felt a pit in her stomach, "we don't.""It's been almost a year." JJ said, leaning towards John B. He glanced at JJ, eyes watery."He could've been kidnapped. That's definitely a possibility." Y/N tried to relieve some tension."Yeah, could be in a Soviet sub getting interrogated by the KGB somewhere." Pope said sarcastically."Absolutely. Uh.. or Atlantis." JJ said, equally sarcastic.Y/N chortled, "Yeah with sexy mermaids." "Y/N. Pope. JJ." Scolded Kie. "Look what do you think that message is?" She looked at John B."Redfield." Came his reply as they passed a sign for 'Redfield lighthouse.' "My dad's favorite place."

The van pulled over and the doors clunked open in unison. They looked at the y'all lighthouse towering over them. Kie felt bad for whoever had to climb those stairs. "So? Who's going up?" She asked."Right. You two will post up and look out for bogies, ok?" John B looked at JJ and Y/N."Why me?" JJ challenged and Y/N crossed her arms."You're not coming." Pope shook his head."Why not." She pouted."There are independent and dependent variables, you're an independent- we don't know what you'll do.""But you love how fun we are!" Y/N defended, leaning against JJ."Yeah Pope!""Nono-""Just let us-" "We're fun!""You have so many bad ideas-" Pope shook his head."Hey I've had plenty of good ideas too!"JJ and Pope began arguing over each other until John B interrupted them, "Guys! Just listen to me for a second. Pope, you stand look out with JJ and Y/N ok? If we get split up we meet back at JJ's crack den.""My house isn't a-" JJ started to argue until Kie threw him a glare and shut him up.

"Let's get this done then." Kie said, and set off with John B for the lighthouse."I'm gunna work on my merit scholarship essay.""Sounds fun" Y/N rolled her eyes."Yeah and try to keep felonies down to a minimum." Pope eyed the pair of them.JJ took out a Hacky sack and he and Y/N started kicking it around to each other. "Would you just shut up already?" JJ said, sulking, "we can't commit felonies playing with a ball." He accidentally kicked it down into a ditch beside their look out post."Shit.""I'll get it JJ." Y/N slid down the ditch and accidentally scratched her legs on brambles clutching at her skin. "Ow!""You alright down there?" Pope called."Yeah, yeah just some brambles." She replied as he turned back to his books. She found the hacky sack lying under a thistle and picked it up, tossing it up to JJ and heaving herself out after it."Hey- hey get that stick" JJ pointed to a thick stick behind Y/N. She picked it up and looked at him. "Okay, What now?""Batter up!" He shouted and threw the ball at her, she swung and it hit with a satisfying clunk. Then with a less satisfying thud, right into Pope's lap. "Oh dude!" He stood up, "this is covered in mud!"Y/N sighed and JJ picked it up and began kicking it around again. "Why've you always got to be such a buzz kill." "Because I have standards to live up too JJ. Something you woul-" he stopped himself. Y/N dropped the hacky sack. JJ stalked towards Pope and grabbed his shirt."Something I What? Pope?" He glared.Pope looked back into JJ's cold gaze and felt courage fill his chest. "Something you wouldn't know about." He glared back."Guys Pogues don't fight Pogues..." Y/N tried to push them apart."Oh so you're on Pope's side now?" "Shut up JJ I'm not on anyone's side. But we won't be very good lookouts if we're distracted by a fight."JJ went back to his hacky sack and they sat in silence."You wouldn't get it." Pope started up again. "My family aren't rich dude. They work hard and they want me to have the chances and opportunities they never got. I'm under a lot of pressure to get this scholarship or..." he trailed off."Or you feel like you've let them down?" Offered Y/N."Yeah.". Poor nodded."You're right- We don't understand. Our dad's couldn't give a shit. But I kind of sympathise anyway. Get off your ass and do something athletic for once." JJ joked.Pope smiled up at him and stood, putting his books in a pile. "I was on the math team though..."Y/N laughed and kicked the hacky sack his way. They threw it around and had a giggle at some miserable fails that occurred. They felt like they understood each other a bit more.

Sirens."I hear so many sirens these days..." Y/N sighed."Shit let's go." JJ jumped into the van."What and leave them?" She narrowed her eyes."Lead the cops on a wild goose chase- it'll buy John B and Kie time to get away." Pope nodded at JJ.The tyres ripped up dirt and threw it into the warm air, Y/N looked out the window and her hat almost got claimed by the wind, it was thanks to JJ that he caught it and put it into his bag. "Beanies aren't practical""What and snap back's are?""Oh tell me I don't look hot in this.""I'm no liar Jay." Y/N smiled and crawled over to him... before meeting Pope's eye in one of the mirrors and sitting back down, embarrassed.

Pope changed the subject, "the cops are still there?" "Yeah, but if you wind around the block on the west side a couple times we'll lose them." JJ pointed at a turning coming up. "Fingers crossed they're all following us and not chasing Kie and John B." Y/N said, watching the cops speed past them as they slipped into an alley. The Twinkie's engine falling into a silent humn."Lets's just go back to JJ's and wait for John B" Pope suggested."Yeah they probably got away." Y/N crossed her fingers.

They didn't show up. Luckily for them JJ's dad was out so they didn't run into him. They just sat around, lounging in the sun. Pope even fell asleep at one point, letting Y/N crawl over to JJ and lie on his chest. He gave a kiss on the head."Hey there independent variable.""Hey independent variable yourself." she said lazily. She looked at him and couldn't help but notice how soft his eyes were. He tried to appear tough. A master of masks. But she could see the little kid inside him. "Where are they" JJ looked concerned.Y/N simply shook her head "can't kill a Pogue baby. They'll be okay." She cuddled up closer to him and then- Pope stirred. Y/N sat up quickly. He looked around the room lazily, "Guys... they're not here yet..." Pope mumbled. "Let's just go to the dock." Y/N and JJ agreed silently and stood up. Pope said he would drop the van back at John B's and then come back, climbing into the drivers seat."Please. Text us is you find them." JJ asked him, his face anxious.He nodded. Y/N waved and Pope waved back, pulling away. Compared to the recent events- today was pretty docile. It felt wrong. Pope drove the van back to John B's, looking out the windows for the sight of either of his friends. As he pulled up to John B's house, he noticed the sky was glowing orange. Rounding the corner, he was met with the sigh of a raging bonfire filled with papers. John B was beside it, staring at it with intensity and a thoughtful look in his eyes. Pope turned of the engine, and stared at his friend. He thought it best to just walk home without asking too many questions. Let him have his moment. Leaving the keys on his John B's porch. Pope messaged Y/N shortly after to reassure her of John B's safety.

Y/N looked over at JJ, who was lighting a blunt. "You ok?""Yeah. Want a bit?" He offered."Go on then." She wandered over to him and he put his arm around her. She opened her mouth JJ placed it in her mouth, taking a big puff and leaning back against the wall. It was strong stuff. JJ even looked a bit overwhelmed by it- but tried not to let it on. "Today was pretty chill.""Yeah- for us."They giggled quietly. Y/N held onto JJ's hand, that was on her shoulder, and played with his fingers. "You hand reminds me of a little bwaby spidr." She said. JJ suddenly made his hand jump and flopped it onto Y/N's face. "You're funny..." she lent against him and put her head on his shoulder. He put his head onto hers and felt his heart flutter in a way it with other girls. JJ wrapped both his muscular arms around Y/N and kissed her head again. "I'll always be here. You know that don't you?"Y/N's shoulder's tensed. She looked up, "really?""Really.""I've heard that many times Jay, people always lie.""I wouldn't lie to you about something so important. I'll always be here."She sniffed. "I'll always be here for you too. Like, forever. Pogues for life.""I dunno, this might sound weird. But you make me feel a way no one else can Y/N-""Jay...""Let me finish... I... woah I've never had to say this.. I think I love you?"Y/N's eyes went wide, "really?""Do you love me.. As well?" JJ gulped. He looked vulnerable and childlike."I think I do love you..." Y/N's heart fluttered. JJ sniffed and wiped his eyes."What wrong?" She assumed she did something wrong."No... no I'm happy." He smiled widely, "My dad I.... I don't think he loves me Y/N. My own father. I didn't think... I didn't think that anyone ever could. Like- i don't know. I feel like it's my fault for being a shitty son." Y/N reached up and held his face, she pressed her lips against his and he held her close. "I love you Jay. You're worthy of love. You don't owe anyone anything, not me not Luke. No one." She smiled more confidently this time.

They heard footsteps crunch on the gravel and broke apart. It was Pope coming around the corner. JJ and Y/N separated."Hey guys" he smiled, his hands lazily swinging by his sides. "Is that-" he sniffed "a blunt?"JJ took another puff, "yeah." He smirked And blew smoke infront of Pope's face. "Oh dude ew, one puff of that stuff and I'll be floored." He scrunched up his nose and went the other side of Y/N. "Seen Kie?""No.. did see John B though." Pope looked worried. "I think they've been arrested.""I mean- John B's already on thin ice... he'll get in serious shit." Y/N bit her fingernail."It's the life of a Pogue isn't it." JJ puffed out another cloud as more gravel was heard crunching in the distance. It was John B in the Twinkie. He beckoned then over with a finger."Let's ride" grinned JJ, putting out his blunt."This better be good." Pope said. Y/N pulled the door shut once they were all in, "let's go."

They drove straight to the wreck to pick up Kiara, John B catching them up on the way. "We went up to see the lighthouse operator, some Royal Merchant fan. But as soon as we mentioned my dad he lost it. Kicked us out and called the police.""What? Seriously?" Y/N raised her eyebrows.John B nodded, "He got seriously mad. I got arrested and Peterkin came and found me. Said she knew about how they got the compass from the boat.."JJ groaned, "of course she does.. goodbye mansion.""No listen- it gets worse." John B sighed.Pope turned to him, "how??""The men from the other day. They were back. I don't know how they found me but they were hunting me down dude. One in a black Jeep and one on foot with a gun. I got away but.. I lost the compass.""Oh John B.." Y/N gasped softly, she knew how much it meant to him."Yeah. When I got home I made a big fire, and I burnt all of this things. I lost our heirloom. And I felt like I was just- chasing some fantasy. But in the ashes I saw something. Something that changed the game."Pope broke the silence that followed, "Well?? What is it?!"John B shook his head, "Why tell you when I can show you. But first we need to get Kie." (A/an sorry about that weird recap- I'm assuming you've seen the show)

One arriving at the Wreck, Pope went to get Kie but emerged saying, "she says she's not coming.""Why not?" JJ looked over from the passenger seat."What did you do John B?" Y/N questioned."Shit. N-nothing! J-just.. wait here. I'll deal with it.""Hope he didn't make a move on her." Y/N said absentmindedly."Wait wait what do you mean?" JJ span in his seat to look at Y/N."Well Kie's told me a few times about how she sees John B look at her sometimes. She just wants a solid friendship."JJ turned around, "well shit.""What did you do" Y/N's mouth turned up at the corners."I may have told John B that Kiara liked him and advised him to make a move.""Hah!" Laughed Y/N."JJ." Pope sighed. "Well it doesn't matter, because she's there." He pointed. "But are you sure she doesn't like him?" He added quickly.Y/N smirked, "Yeah..... why?" "No reason. We just have rules! Y'know..." JJ and Y/N looked at each other, thinking the same thing. "Oh look there she is!" Y/N pointed out the slidy door. Kie emerged from her house and shut the front door behind her. Walking past John B and jumping into the back with Y/N. John B getting into the drivers seat of his beloved van. Y/N couldn't help but notice how pretty she looked in the setting sun...

The sun had gone down by the time they almost reached their destination "You mind if I just relax on this one?" JJ asked."That's your secon-" Pope went to say 'second time today' but JJ cut him off. "a lot of stuff's gone down lately. I just gunna lay low a- oh did you want a hit of this?" JJ offered."I will" Y/N leant over and puffed out some smoke before settling back in her seat.Pope put his hand up, "I keep the signal clear." He tapped his head."Dude okay, there it is again. You don't get creative enough bro." JJ held out the blunt still. "If you got creative the-"John B suddenly sprang from his trance like state. Suddenly cutting JJ off and went off about the compass again. "Look, I- I know I was wrong about the lighthouse okay? An-And wrong about everything else going on." He stuttered to go to his own defense, "But I-I was right about one thing.""What's that?" Kie sighed, replacing the batteries in her flashlight."That my dad is trying to tell me something."

They pulled up outside of a cemetery and slowly slipped over its spiked gate. Y/N stole another puff of JJ's blunt before he stomped it out."Come on, hey, come on." Whispered John B."I'm coming. This place is scary." Kie mumbled in return.Pope clicked his flashlight on, "John B what are we doing?""Shut up.""You gotta stop telling us to shut up dude."Y/N glanced at him."You know how you're trying to remember a song sometimes but you can't remember who sings it?""Yeah." Replied Kie."So Redfield- this whole time we thought was a place. But it's not a place..."The shadows around them danced with the light of their torches and lanterns. Tombstones, all cracked and crumbling around them, covered ever possible inch of land, it was happy, sad, scary, ominous, beautiful. all at the same time. John B shone his torch on the entrance of a big crypt. Above it read 'Redfield.' "It's a person.""Voi-effing-là." JJ breathed."My great great grandmother. Olivia Redfield.""Her maiden name..." Y/N said quietly. And everyone stepped forwards towards a large crypt door, covered in ivy clinging desperately to the walls."Help me with the door. Come on." Said John B, with a strange calmness.Pope went forward first, "all right...""One, two three..." they began. "Go." Said Kie.". They grunted with the weight of the stone door."Are you pushing?" Asked Pope."Yes we're pushing" JJ winced.Y/N grunted "Come on..." "This door is like 700 pounds it's not gunna budge." Pope said, the voice of reason. They stepped back and looked up at the door."We didn't get this far..." Y/N hissed."To get this far." John B finished her sentence.Suddenly an actual hissing was heard. Loud and angry. It was a snake in the crack of a door. They all jumped back in a swift motion."Woah woah woah woah!""It's a snake!"JJ looked at its back, "that's a moccasin all right. Ye olde Dr. Cottenmouth.""Death in tall grass. Bark maybe? They hate dogs!" Y/N suggested.JJ started baring hysterically."JJ shut up!""JJ stop!" The other Pogues whispered at him, Kie pushed his shoulder."What?! Y/N's right they're scared of dogs!"Y/N barked at the snake too, but stopped when pope grabbed her shoulder, "you're going to wake the frickin dead man!"John B and Kie went towards the great door again, JJ stopped them. "Woah woah woah.""What?" Kie asked."If there's one. There's probably a hundred" he said dramatically."All around us... hissss!" Y/N said, trying not too laugh.Kie rolled her eyes. "Can you stop? You're scaring me." JJ began to bark again when Y/N made a hissing sound."JJ stop barking at the snakes." Pope scolded."Yeah you animal." Y/N nudged his shoulder and winked. John B stopped and looked at them. JJ threw up his hands in surrender and they moved on."Hey I'm just making sure it's clear" JJ defended."Look Jo-" Pope started."It's a snake..." JJ whispered, comically."Shut. Up. John B look, we're not gunna get in there. It's not budging.""We could break it down?" Y/N offered. John B stared at her. "Right. No vandalism." She looked down."And no..." John B raised his eyebrows"Defilement of your ancestors graves." "Good girl."JJ glared. "Look. Listen, that crack is big enough for someone to go in""And perish in" Y/N mumbled."Don't be dramatic!""It's too tight" Pope pointed out."For you maybe"

The boys argued. Kie tapped Y/N's shoulder and pointed her torch at a hole in the door."It's important to John B. He deserves to know the truth. I'll go." She said. Y/N nodded and smiled, holding out her hands to hoist Kie into the hole in the door. Pope noticed them, "What are you-" "I've seen this in movies several times..." Y/N boasted, jokingly. "Could you help me get her up?""Oh yeah.""Ye-Yeah...."Pope, JJ and John B all helped to pull vines out of the way as Kie stepped on Y/N's hands. "You got it?" She asked.Y/N smiled up at her, "Yeah, okay so put your hand there..." She pointed at a spot of vine."On three" said JJ. "One, t-" Y/N hoisted Kie into the hole in the door."Oh alright then, forget about three." He shrugged."What am I looking for?" She called out, her voice echoing."You'll know when you see it." John B replied bluntly."I need more light..." her voice echoed again."Here." Pope held a lantern into he crypt."You alive Kie? With a heart beat an-and everything?" Y/N's voice asked shakily.No response."Kiara?" John B asked again."Yeah... yeah I'm alive so far.""Good... that's good." He replied.They saw Kie stop infront of something, an amazed look on her face. JJ hopefully asked, "You find anything? Gold?"A after a moment she replied with;

"Oh my god."
