A/N: Wow I really love writing fanfictions for National Treasure. Haha Ok this one takes place right in the middle of the first movie (I still have yet to see the second one grrr…) when Ian catches up with the team in Philly. Oh and duh its Slash, but we'll get too it eventually. Hehe, I like making the characters work for it ::Exasperated sighs from Ben and Riley:: Sorry boys ; )
Disclaimer: sigh I wish…
Riley Poole and Abigail Chase ran for their lives down the crowded street of Philadelphia. Ian had found them somehow and was now hot on their tail. The pair raced to city hall, the Declaration tight in Abigail's grip. They bolted across the street, nearly colliding with an oncoming car. They quickly recovered and continued their sprint.
"Ian, they're headed for the breezeway, on the north side," Shaw spoke into his walky-talky, keeping his eyes on Abigail and Riley as he crossed the busy street.
"I'll be right there," Ian's voice crackled from the communication device. He burst into a run and headed to cut off Abigail and Riley.
"Watch it!" Abigail barked as she darted past the men and women in the breezeway. She took a quick look back. Riley was still following closely with Ian's men not too far behind. Seeing this, she quickened her pace.
Riley mentally cursed at the blonde and pushed himself to go faster. He looked back and saw why. Ian's men were right on his tail. He faced forward once more and plowed right into a pack of Philadelphia legislatures.
"Watch it! Hey, get out of my way!" He cried rudely, trying quickly to untangle himself from the bundle of well dressed limbs. But it was no use. Abigail was already crossing the street, the document still safely in her hand, and no Ian in sight. Riley was relieved, that is until Ian came bounding around the corner. His heart flip-flopped and he darted to the right.
Not realizing Riley had been there only but a few seconds before, Ian's men raced past him, still in pursuit of Abigail and the map. Ian grabbed Shaw's arm, stopping him. Shaw looked at him, confused.
"But, boss, the girl. She still has the--"
"Yes, I know," Ian said between heavy breaths. "But I think I've found a much better way to get what I want." A wicked smile formed on his lips as he stared in the directed the young computer genius had gone.
A/N:I know, cliff hanger, I'm evil. But I just wanted to get this story out there as quickly as possible. Oh and I know that a lot of these kinds of stories are floating around but it would be really amazing if everyone who read it, reviewed. Please and thank you! And the next chapter should appear tomorrow
