Chapter One

Colonel Eve Baird was the strongest fighter Flynn Carsen ever knew. She had also been the guardian to the library for six years now and had seen each though a multitude of adventure and close escapes from danger.

"The Temple of Sekhmet had hundreds of archeologists looking for its was supposed to be THE impossible discovery." Flynn explained in encyclopedic knowledge.

"No one in the history of mankind has ever been able to locate it. And here we are." He said happily.

"Too bad we cant share the glory" Ezekiel Jones sighed. "Wed make a fortune off this place."

She held the lantern over his head so he could read the glyphs on the wall. "Now that we found our way in, theres gotta be a way out of here."

Jacob Stone looked up. "Wait …wait…somethings not right. Look up there. If this is the Egyptian temple of Sekhmet…why are there Babolian temple of King Devousion markings and then why are there Egyptian markings and Pre Colombian symbols right next to one another?" Flynn gazed up at the markings astounded. "Amazing…these are from the fifteenth centry..those are from the seventeenth, and these are from Id say around 6 AD and I don't believe it… these are from 356 BC during the Everting campaign with the ancient Greeks and Persians!"

Stone gazed carefully at one of the symbols. "I've never seen this one before. I don't recognize it…" He muttered. "This is something else…" He mused. "What are these symbols doing in the Temple of Sekhmet?"

Ezekiel leaned against the wall with his natural air of boredom and distain. His hand grazed the walls, and in a blink of an eye had several multimillion dollars worth of rare jewels in his pockets. "Whatever…how do we get out of here?"

"Jones! Cant you keep you're sticky fingers off something for five minutes?! Not everything is something you can steal!"

Jones rolled his eyes. "Look mate, these are as rare as it gets. They're Waterson Hobbinson gems. These are worth millions each."

"That means they belong in a –"

"Don't say it!"

"A museum!"

"Well so do you!"

Casandra Cillian squinted her eyes at the bright jewels that lined the walls. "Wait - guys shut up! These are placed here in a distinct pattern."

Flynn looked up at what she was pointing to. "You're right…why do these look familiar?"

Casandra closed her eyes… Judging by the time of these markings and taking into account current depths of earth erosion and wind speeds, and If I assume that each of these markings was at a different time of year…but within the autumnal equinox…" She did elaborate calculation in here head. "These jewels are for celestial navigation!' She said happily. There was a large empty spot that had a few minutes ago had a priceless sapphire in it the size of star. "That's north." She declared and spun around. "That means the exit is this way."

Flynn smiled proudly. "Taught her everything she knew." Baird just rolled her eyes.
