Hello, all you Jonathan fans! Yes, Jonathan and Liz won the poll, so here's their chapter. I am speculating their escape point (where they were with the others, except Indy, Callista, and Alex) to be near (lets say a few miles south of) Mt. Everest. Hope you all enjoy!
Note: Some locations are actual places!

Chapter 9
After walking for a couple of days, Jonathan and Liz arrived in the small town of Dhankuta. "Alright, what do we do now?" asked Jonathan.
"We hitch a ride to Patna," she replied.
"And that's where?"
"In India," she answered. "Why don't you try and barter for some supplies while I find us some transportation." As Jonathan began to walk off, Liz took a moment to think. Before Callista showed up at her door for the first time after the Sinai incident, Liz thought she would never see the exuberant tomb raider again. Yet, Callista returned, seeking her help; and brought with her the most peculiar man Liz had ever met. Jonathan Carnahan has proven to be a mystery. Liz could tell that the only thing the man was good for was distraction; yet deep down, she could also see that he truly wanted to help. What's wrong with me? I never felt this way about a man before.
Barter for supplies. How in the world am I going to get supplies? Jonathan thought. As he looked back briefly, he noticed Liz talking to a villager. To him, she was the most beautiful woman he had ever met. Of course he had dated many women over the years, but known have never made him shy or feel like a child. Liz was truly different. Her intelligence, sophistication, and her inner beauty made her unique. Why should I even bother thinking like this? She probably doesn't feel the same.
When they reached Patna, they boarded a train that would take them through Bhutan, China, and into Siberia. "Why are we going to Siberia again?" asked Jonathan.
"To meet up with the others," Liz replied.
"At the place 'where time ends'?" he asked.
"Yes. There is a crater that contained a device that would allow a person to control time," she said.
"Control time?"
"Yes, but only at certain times. Basically, when the planets are in perfect alignment, which happens only every five thousand years. Don't worry, the alignment won't happened until the turn of the millennium," she calmly told a suddenly scared Jonathan. There was a brief moment when she touched his hand – a connection that may link them forever. Liz pulled her hand away. "I hope Callista found the piece," she said. For a moment, so did Jonathan, suddenly concerned about his new friend.
Now I know that the chapter is short; but with college work, my mind is totally warped. Now, should I guess and say that you all might want an Ardeth/Rachel chapter next? Give me your answers and I'll write it as soon as I can!
