I DO NOT OWN REIGN.

Verona, Wisconsin

After purchasing their items and leaving the store, Chris, Shawn, Francis, and Mary got into the El Camino. They noticed that it was starting to snow which would make driving difficult.

"Where to now?" Shawn inquired as Chris turned onto the street.

"It's not a good idea to go back to the house," Chris stated. "The Kings might still be scoping it out."

"Good call." Shawn agreed. "Let's just go to the woods and do the ceremony. The sooner Mary and Francis are back home, the better they will be." They eventually arrived at the spot where Mary had darted our in front of them those few nights ago.

"This is it." She confirmed as she and Francis got out of the truck bed.

"All right, let's set everything up." Francis ordered as everyone took the supplies they had bought and began to create a space to send Mary and Francis back. Shawn was in charge of reading off the instructions that Snow had given them. All in all, it had come out pretty good.

"We did all right for non-pagans." Chris observed as the group stopped to admire their work.

"Now all we have to do is recite the spell and that should send you both straight back to France." Chris stated. Shawn started to feel awkward as it dawned on him that no one had told Chris that he had been invited to go with Francis and Mary. As Shawn was about to say something, everyone heard angry voices speaking in Spanish.

"Oh no..." Mary said.

"The Latin Kings, they found us." Chris said in fear. "Quick, we have to lead them away from the spot." Everyone took off as fast as they could. Chris in particular, hauled ass under he came out of the woods and what he saw stopped him cold. It was King Pee-Wee standing in front of him with a small revolver. The 10 year old boy looked conflicted as he stared Chris down.

"King Pee-Wee..." Chris said as he pleaded with the boy. Francis, Mary, and Shawn came out of the clearing just in time to see Chris held at gunpoint.

"Amor De Rey homie..." King Pee Wee said softly as he fired a single shot into Chris Reyes. He stumbled back and then fell to the snowy ground which was turning red with blood.

"CHRIS!" Shawn yelled as he ran over to his friend as he was bleeding out. He then turned to King Pee-Wee. "You shit!" He screamed as he made to attack the boy, but Mary held him back.

"It won't do any good Shawn." She said as she held him. "He is only a brainwashed little boy." Francis went up to King Pee—Wee, grabbed his gun and threw it away. He then grabbed the boy by his collar.

"If you value your life, get out of here and go home. Do you hear me...go home!" Francis exclaimed as the sobbing boy took off running. Shawn and Mary were kneeling over Chris as he was bleeding to death.

"Chris..." Shawn sobbed.

"Come on Shawn...you knew it was always going to end like this." He gasped. "A King is a King...for life. He dies...under those colors."

"Thank you for everything you did for us Chris." Mary said. "I wish we could have saved you."

"Mary...promise me something." Chris said as he took her hand.

"Anything." She said as she teared up.

"You and Francis...take care of Shawn...be the family...that he needs..." Chris stuttered as he finally died in the snow. Shawn didn't know what to say as he laid his head on his friend's chest and sobbed his guts out. Francis knelt next to Mary and let her shed tears of her own for her fallen friend.
