Lee was gone her best friend and older brother was gone. Kenzie was 3 when their mother Evelyn died, and Lee kinda took her on as his responsibility since she was the youngest and he was the oldest. She always either went to John or Lee for everything. Lee was her best friend even now at 23 and working on the ranch full time with Lee and the occasional Jamie. Beth now lived where ever the fuck she lived her and Beth never got along. Kayce had gone to the reservation to be with Monica and she never heard much from him. Then that fateful night when Lee was shot. After Lee's funeral, she disappeared into the woods it had been weeks, and John hadn't seen her. John knew she'd probably do something like this since Lee would always find her in the woods when she was upset when she was younger. Lee knew her better than anyone else. Lee had taught her how to live in the woods just in case she ever had to, but now she was using it to avoid John, her siblings, and the ranch hands. She knew how to track and was staying up in the trees. The ranch was 30,000 acres, so she didn't have a hard time hiding, making sure they didn't follow her she had food and water plus she could always sneak into town use her credit card and then just go back into the woods. She has no cell service being so far into the woods, so she was unreachable. John had taken the helicopter out he'd done everything, and she was nowhere to be found. He thought he was gonna lose another kid, so one day he decided to just go out and see if he could find her the old-fashioned way to track her like she was prey. It took him 3 days to find her. She was sat with her back to him sitting by a fire how she could make a fire without there being a damn sign of smoke was beyond him must be Lee taught her he walked over making sure to make noise she turned and saw him and just sighed. He sat down next to her. John: You gonna live out here for the rest of your life? Cause we both know Lee wouldn't want you to do that he said running a hand through her hair
