For context: There are Outer Banks books that are sort of like side adventures—I suppose. They’re not from the original creators; they’re written by other authors. So I had an idea to make another “treasure hunt” version based on something very small in the first season. (In Big John’s office, there were binders of historic treasures, and one was labeled “The Florida Theory.” That’s basically what I'm going off of) This isn't completely correct; its fiction. But just to be clear, this is entirely my original idea, something I made up myself. So if you use it, please credit me. I don't want this stolen! Also in this, JJ does not die in Morocco!!

It was about five months after the Pogues' trip to Morocco to retrieve the Blue Crown (which they lost to Chandler Groff) when they decided to visit the burnt-down chateau. To their surprise, a few things were found in the rubble—one of them being one of Big John's historic treasure binders. Although it was really damaged, it was shockingly readable. All that could be made out was 'Florida Theo—' and a burnt map. Putting two and two together, the Pogues thought of the Fountain of Youth in St. Augustine, FL. With a little convincing, they decided to take a trip to Florida for what they hoped would be their final treasure hunt. Elsewhere, in Florida, your college is taking a trip in a few days to St. Augustine for your environmental studies class. You've signed your waiver and turned it in. In a few days, you'd be going. Just at the same time the Pogues get there. Fast-forward to that day: after your guided class tour, you’re mistakenly left behind—and that’s when you meet the Pogues. You sit on a bench, sighing. That is when JJ Maybank, one of the them, comes up to you. "Were you on that field trip?" He asks you. You reply with a yes, to which you explain you got left behind. After a long discussion between the six, they decide to let you help their "treasure hunt." Saying that because you're from here, you'd know the way around. Little do you know what you got into...
