《Low Tide \ JJ Maybank》Ch 38
Advertisement
I pull up in front of a large garage. I stop the car, getting out. Kie and I follow JJ up to the garage door.
"There she be." He says opening the door. "Hey, girl. A 1983 Formula 403 SR1." He pulls the tarp off the large boat. "The Phantom." He clicks his tongue looking at Kie and I.
I loved watching him talk about the Phantom. He had talked to me about it before. He had always been so fascinated by it and the stories of it. JJ's passion for boats was so cute.
"Mm-hm." I say nodding with a smile.
"The first boat to make the run to Bermuda in under 16 hours, ladies. Forty years old! Forty! And still the fastest thing Kildare's ever seen."
"It's kind of a junker." Kie observes.
I let out a little giggle.
"Really, Kie? She's right there. She can hear you. Let's just put it this way. You would not be smokin' weed right now, if she didn't exist, okay?"
"Oh brother." I say shaking my head.
"I just hope she runs." Kie says honestly.
"Oh, no, she'll run alright. She's faster than any cutters the boys in blue got." JJ mumbles, prepping the boat.
A motorcycle engine revs outside before hearing it halt to a stop.
"Pope, finally!" Kie tells jogging around the boat.
"Hey there. What's going on?" Rafe appears around the boat.
My breath hitches in my throat, catching JJ's attention. He looks up at me before Rafe calls our names.
"Kat, JJ? How you guys doin'? Heard y'all were official, congrats." Rafe hops up on the side of the Phantom.
A shrill whistle sounds from behind us. I whip around quickly. Barry walks around the side of my car, tapping it as he goes.

"Well, well..." Barry pulls out a gun, cocking it. He points it directly at JJ. "Now don't think I forgot about me and you on the side of the road. I'm here because I want my motherfuckin' money!" Barry attacks JJ to the ground.
"JJ!" I call out running at him. Barry pushes me away, knocking me off balance before turning back to my boyfriend. Rafe picks up Kiara as she tries to help JJ, pulling her away too.
"That's what I'm here for!" Barry punches JJ again while he's still on the ground.
"Get off of him!" I yell standing up.
"It's not you we want, Kat. Where's John B?" Rafe says turning to Kie.
"I don't know!" She yells slapping him. The sound echoes through the room.
JJ tries to get up but Barry kicks him again telling him to stay down.
"I really wish you didn't do that." Rafe says to Kie. He walks over to me pulling me over to her. I try to pull away because I knew he was just here to keep Kie and I busy while Barry handles JJ.
"We know what you did!" Kie tells Rafe.
"What? What did I do?" He asks.
"You murdered Peterkin!" Kiara yells.
Rafe reaches out and grabs Kie around her neck, choking her. "Don't you ever say those fucking words again."
I grab his arm, trying to pull him off of her. "Rafe, get off!" He shoves me to the ground with his free arm.
"Where is John B?" He yells at Kie again.
"I don't know!"
Suddenly Pope is running in and smacks Rafe across the back with a metal rod. "Don't touch her!" Rafe drops Kiara as Pope continues to hit him.

She rushes over helping me to my feet. Barry moves to help defend Rafe but JJ catches his ankle, making him trip. I watch as the gun clatters to the ground. I move to pick it up. Barry moves back to grab at JJ to tackle him again.
I point the gun at Barry. "Step away from him." My voice comes out low and threatening.
"You won't shoot me." Barry states confidently.
"Try me." I say taking a step toward him. I cock the gun, letting it click loudly.
Barry backs up with his hands in the air. I toss the gun as far as I can before turning back to the other fight. Pope was still hitting Rafe. He wasn't stopping. It almost looked as if Pope wasn't actually aware.
"Pope, stop!" I yell. "Pope!"
Kiara yells too, catching JJ's attention. "He's had enough, that's good."
"P, enough! This isn't you!"
Pope continues to beat Rafe. He grabs a rope, wrapping it around the druggy's neck, choking him.
"Snap out of it man!" JJ yells. He grabs onto Pope's shoulders, trying to get him to stop. "Dude, stop, man, come on."
"Pope!"
"Pope! Look at me!" Kiara yells, finally getting him to stop.
Pope drops Rafe onto the ground, hyperventilating. Rafe coughs and chokes, trying to breathe again.
"Shit! Oh, shit." JJ mumbles.
"It's okay." Kiara reassures Pope. "Okay, we gotta go, we gotta go."
Pope stares down at Rafe as everyone starts to walk out. "Stay off the cut!" He threatens.
"Pope, enough!" I yell getting annoyed with him. "Stop being reckless and let's fucking go!"

8 116The Dungeon King

Will I be King or Pauper? No, I will become the King! Alex is a survivor, that escaped from a ruined earth. He was given a mission by the gods, carrying the hope of his friends and companions to a new world. However when he arrives, he finds himself on the verge of death, in a new land. He is quickly put to the test, he has to learn how to fight, struggle resist with all his might against strong foes and tribulations besetting him from all directions. And he has to keep in the back of his mind, the mission he was entrusted with. Join him on this adventure where he discovers a new world full of wonder and whimsy, danger and oppurtunity. Join him as he drags himself from nothing to fighting against the entire world. Note: The story starts out quite light-heartedly to allow myself to ease readers into the story, allowing me to world-build and put the system in place first. Hopefully after that, I will be able to mix both light-hearted fair with a gritty undertone to tell a good story
8 124Marakar
Far from the exploration he yearned to go on, Rae, the Kijah prince, finds himself in the middle of the impending war between Kijah'dar and Ga'ani. Unknown to him, or to the rest of the states, the Kijah Magister plots to overthrow the queen, and he will stop at nothing to achieve his plans. Marakar is a fantasy adventure series about the island states of Mar’narana (with focus primarily on the two states, Kijah'dar and Ga'ani). Tensions between the big players are rising, with more and more plots getting revealed, and powers are unexpectedly shifting. As the string of seemingly unconnected events grows taut, the smaller nations suddenly find themselves into the midst of things, struggling with the sudden shifting of their boards. On a more meta note, I am trying to develop two storylines parallel to each other. As you might have noticed, odd-numbered chapters are very different from even-numbered chapters. That’s because those are the two different storylines; odd-numbered chapters are in the present, while even-numbered ones are in the past. Once the two eventually meet I'll continue with just the present storyline. This story can also be found here where it currently updates every other Sunday (about twice a month). Feedback is greatly appreciated! Thank you for taking the time to read. :) tw/cw list (please take care of your mental health! Don't force yourself to read these chapters if they may harm you). -------> Chapter 14: hate crime description.

8 89Friendship for Dummies
"Being reunited with your childhood best friend after eight years apart? Sounds like a heart-warming story. Finding out that said best friend is now a complete jerk who's determined to make your life hell? Not so much."Georgie and Connor were once inseparable. Best friends from birth, they did everything together - well, that was until Connor's dad got a once-in-a-lifetime job opportunity and the family was forced to relocate to New York. At age sixteen, Georgie's life is totally different - her main goal being to keep her head down and escape the brutalities of high school with as little emotional scarring as possible. Balancing school, work and her dwindling social life is enough of a challenge, but it's about to get a bit more complicated when her conceited ex-best friend gets thrown into the mix. Maybe friendship should come with an instruction booklet.
