Chapter 1 – Indy Leaves

"Indiana Jones," She yelled when he walked out the door

"What," He yelled back

"Listen here, if you think you can just walk away now then you better not even think of coming back,"

She had been really angry at him for deciding to leave her.

"Well Fine, Good by Miss Ravenwood," Were his last words and she slammed the door behind him and

He walked off with only his clothes, weapons and his usual bags.

Indy woke to that same dream almost every night. He knew he missed Marion ever since then but he

moved on. He continued with his Jobs and went on a date here and there but never really was with

anyone long enough to remember their last name. Indy left that morning he was on his way to

Australia for another adventure looking for an Australian relic worth more then he had ever seen. He

was on his flight by 9 and was in Hawaii by that night. He had 4 over night stops. Hawaii was his first

then Tonga, New Zealand and Sydney. He would arrive in the middle of the outback in 5 days. Indy did

not know that there would actually be people living the area when he arrived. He had heard it had

been deserted for centuries. When he arrived he found that there was a whole town there and that he

was not the only Archaeologist in the area as well but the onlyone looking for the relic. The other

Archaeologist was a famous Australian Archaeologist Rikki Bennett. She was a few years younger the

Indy, ten times smarter and about seven inches shorter. She was known in Australia for her Surfing

abilities, her swimming abilities, her fighting ability and her brains. She was the smartest person to

graduate from the Sydney College in history and she has a major in many different things. She is a

world renound Archaeologist, Paleontologist and Historian who can speak over ten languages including

a few forms of rare languages. Indy was quite impressed at what he knew but he knew there was

more to her then he had heard and saw. They had a few earlier encounters where she had always got

to the treasure first. They had first met in Istanbul looking for the lost treasure of Constantine. Their

later encounters included Giza, Shanghai, Wellington, Machu pitchu, Cuzco, South France and

surprisingly at his own collage in Connecticut. She had been looking for clues to the lost diary of Mary

Magdalene. Indy had never officially met her; they had come and gone, fought for a treasure or two

and shot at each other at one point in Cuzco. Indy had the chance to meet her since he had been right

where she lived and that he might need help since there was no one available to ask for help he

thought this would be the perfect time to meet her and see her skill first hand. The only thing he was

worrying about was that he had heard that she was never very good with help for one thing and that

she liked to take control and do things her way which was not so smart to normal people but she did

always seem to come through in the end. He finally decided that he would ask for her help but maybe

after he ate. the though of her made him shake so he thought that he should not try to meet her with

the chance of throwing up from his nerves. The only thing that made him want to hurry was that he

heard that she was really beautiful and he wanted to see if the rumors about her were all true. The

good and the bad.

Indy found to his surprise a tiny restaurant in town and got something to eat and sat there for an

extra few minutes to finish up his coffee and then he got going. He did not know where she lived but

what he did know was that it would be the only house with Archaeological things in the windows and

possibly outside. But to make sure he asked a young man he saw walking down the only road in the

town and he said that she lived right where Indy thought. Indy walked down to the house braced

himself for what ever was coming and knocked on the door. As the door opened there was a Woman in

the doorway she was beautiful and looked nothing like an Archaeologist. But when she started to talk

he could not mistake her for the woman he had heard about and met a few times.

"Indiana Jones," She said

"Yeah," He said stunned that she knew who he was

"What are you doing here?" She asked

"I was um," he stumbled over the words and forgot what he was there for

"Let me guess, your here because your looking for that lost relic outside this town," she said nailing

the reason why he was there

"Yeah,"

"Yeah and you want my help," She knew that would be the only reason why he was there especially

after their recent encounter in Cuzco.

"How did you know?" He asked wondering why she would know every reason why he was standing on

her door step.

"Well come in and we can talk," she said gesturing for him to come in to the house.

'Great' he thought as he walked into her house.

He knew exactly why she had said 'So we can talk' he knew she would tell him what they were going

to do and take charge of the operation. So he walked into the house and sat down on her couch. She

had many books propped open on the nearby table and a few scattered on every other place that you

could put a book. from what Indy saw she loved to read, something never mentioned to him about her

and that she had a lot of thing that were not related to her work. She had pictures of surfers which he

expected were her and she had trophies and many other pictures most of them looked like they had

been taken on a beach or near water. So from what he noticed she loved her past more then her

present and that she loved the beach and ocean and because of that he wondered why she was so

far away from something she clearly loved.

"So what do you want me to help you with?" she asked handing him a bottle of water

"I was wondering if you could possibly help me find that relic you mentioned," he answered

"Well I almost forgot, you probably already know but it makes me feel like an idiot if I don't,"

"Don't what,"

"Introduce myself, My Name is Rikki Cleo Benet," She said as she put her hand out obviously for Indy to

shake. To Indy's surprise she was nicer at first then he expected.

"Hi, I'm Henry Jones the second but call me Indiana or Indy either one is fine with me," he said smiling

at her.

"Well let's get down to business," she said sitting down.

"Can you help me?" he asked

"Yes, I can," she answered but it was not the yes he was looking for.

"Will you?"

"Maybe,"

"What do you mean maybe?" he said getting angry at her patience he could see she was a very hard

person to fight with.

"I'm kidding you need a since of humor," she laughed

"Humor," he said getting louder

"Yes, Relax alright maybe that's why you look so scared,"

"I'm not scared,"

"Really, I know the rumors about me; some are true but most are not,"

"Which aren't?"

"The ones about me being mean, nasty and a complete control freak,"

"Ah,"

"Yeah well let's get started but a little tip,"

"What's that?"

"We might have to look in another place,"

"Why?"

"Because it's not here,"

"What do you mean it's not here?"

"I checked already it is in a remote area just south of Perth,"

"Okay then lets go,"

"Wait,"

"Why?"

"Can I get changed and ready first?" she asked looking down at herself and Indy finally noticed that

she was wearing a night shirt and shorts.

"Right," he said

"You can wait here for a while I will be back in about 20,"

"Okay take your time," he said as he watched her walk in to a door right on the other side of the room

but she did not close it all the way or maybe it did not close Indy had no idea but he could not help but

to look in the room only to watch her get changed and pack her things. She probably knew he was

there because she never turned towards the door and kept turning her head slightly and Indy could

tell she saw him out of the corner of her eye. Twenty minuets later she turned around and Indy ran

back to the couch and pretended to be looking at her trophies.

"You sure have a lot of trophies,"

"Yeah they are mostly from Swimming and Surfing,"

"Wow, you must be really good,"

"I guess, let's go,"

"Right, how do we get there?" he asked but she just turned to him and smiled because when they got

outside there was already a plane outside ready to go. They Boarded and then they were on their way

to somewhere under Perth and they would arrive in less then 4 hours.
