Going to see Kiara the day before hardly seemed like the beginning of a friendship, and yet when she got a text the next afternoon, that's what it looked like.

She saw Kiara almost immediately upon arriving at the restaurant. She waved hello and left her truck, taking the keys out and slipping them into her hoodie pocket. 

'Hey stranger,' she called. Kiara smiled and nodded for her to get into her truck. 

'We're going to the cemetery.'

'Why?'

'I'm going to leave it to John B to explain,' Kiara replied with a slight smile. 'There's a lot.'

Maelynn smiled and settled in as Kiara started to drive. 'Oh, boy.'

'Hey, Kie! And... Maelynn? Maelynn Cameron?'

Maelynn smiled and waved at the boys. 'Hi. Kiara invited me. Sorry my brother is such a dick.'

JJ snorted. 'What a greeting.'

As they met eyes, she immediately remembered having a gun in her face. The memory made her flinch a little and she looked away. Pope, the only one she hadn't really talked to, was watching her and Kiara curiously. 

'So...'

John B rolled his eyes. 'Did Kie explain anything to you?'

'Zip, zero, zilch. Said you should do it.'

'My dad's missing. I'm sure you know that part.'

'I heard. I'm really sorry.'

John B waved her off. 'It's fine. We're gonna find him. Now, this compass, which has caused us a lot of issues, says Redfield on it.'
