Hello and welcome to my other National Treasure story! :) I know I have a lot of stories on the go at the moment, but that's just how I work. I hope you enjoy this one! Thanks!
Prologue
Aboard the Charlotte was where it all went wrong.
Damn it Ben, Ian thought. Why couldn't he just cooperate, it would make this so much easier.
"I really need your help here," he begged.
"Ian, I'm not going to let you steal the Declaration of Independence," Ben stated firmly.
Ian sighed. He hadn't wanted it to come to this, but Ben left him with no choice. "Alright, from now on all you're going to be is a hindrance." He nodded to Shaw who pulled out his gun and pointed it at Ben.
"Tell me what I need to know Ben," Ian demanded.
But he still hadn't budged, even when held at gunpoint. He remained strangely calm and composed. He was so stubborn. If only he knew what was at stake here, then maybe he would understand.
As they drove away in the snowmobiles watching the beautiful Charlotte explode, Ian hoped that Ben and Riley had somehow made it out in time. Ben Gates was a smart man he knew, so he had probably figured out something.
Sorry Ben, but I have to do this. He wasn't going to let anyone stand in his way, even if it meant stealing one of the most important documents in American history. If that was the next step to finding the treasure, he had to take it. And not even Ben Gates would stop him.
Really short I know but I just wanted to add it to set the scene. This story will mostly be focused on my character, Alice. Hope you enjoyed! Thanks for reading!
