A/N: I don't own Sahara. I only own my characters and the storyline. This takes place a year after the movie. I hope that you'll enjoy it and I'll make my best to make it as interesting as possible.
Chapter 1

New Delhi, India
"Sam, you go for the security cameras. Give us a sign when the coast is clear."
"Got it Adam."
Sam looked around him and hurried towards the room where the security tapes were so that he could shut the cameras off. He made a noise so that the guard would leave and snuck inside and quickly shut them off. He made a sign for Adam that the coast was clear and he copied it.
"What the—?"
Before the guard finished his sentence, Sam threw a punch at his face and hit him in the stomach with the rifle so that he fell to the ground and the hurried after Adam and Paul. The guard wouldn't wake up for quite a while but when he did they needed to leave the place fast.
"You think the clue is here?" Paul asked
"The boss said so. Now come on, we don't have that long." Adam replied
Just then, the alarm started beeping loudly and Adam turned around to Sam. How could they know they were there if he had taken care of the security cameras? Now they had to move fast because if they got caught, their boss wouldn't be happy with them at all and they'd be in trouble for sure.
"Come on let's move it! Go, go, go!"
Kos, Greece
"YIIIHAA!"
Al Giordino almost jumped up in the air with the water scooter as he and his friend Dirk Pitt raced to reach the docks first. They were in Greece for another dive with NUMA but they were currently taking a break. It had been a little over a year since their adventure in the African desert with Eva and their lives were continuing as normal. Eva and Dirk weren't together anymore, she had her job and Dirk had his and they were both always halfway across the world and barely saw each other. Al knew Dirk missed her but he wouldn't admit it, he just referred to it as a simple romance but Al knew him too well to be able to tell him that it wasn't true.
"Last one to the docks buys coffee!" Dirk shouted
"You're on!" Al told him
One way or another, Al always ended up paying for lunch or breakfast but this time it was going to be Dirk's turn. He was already way ahead of him and he smiled at the thought of winning against him. He turned around to see that Dirk was missing and he wondered where he went but figured that he had probably taken a short cut between one the ships so he decided to get moving. Just then, Al saw Dirk racing ahead of him and he couldn't understand how since he had been the one taking the lead.
"Hey Al! Maybe next time I should let you get a head start!" Dirk shouted
"How the hell did he do that?" Al asked himself
Suddenly, the engine stopped running and Al flew off the water scooter and into the water. It was lucky he was a good swimmer otherwise he would have drowned. He quickly got back up onto the surface and started swimming back to the docks which was a few minutes away and when he got there, he saw that Dirk was already waiting for him at the café with a smile on his face.
"Next time." Al said as he sat down on the chair
"Sure thing." Dirk told him
A waiter came to the table and handed them two coffees. They only had time to drink the coffee and then they had to get back to the ship and then Admiral Sandecker had told them to go to some dinner party and they really didn't have any choice but to go. The admiral constantly made sure that they weren't about to go on anymore adventures that would put their lives at risk again or do something else stupid even though the two had told them that it wouldn't happen.
"Why do we have to go to the stupid dinner party anyway?" Al asked
"Because according to the admiral there would be very important people there and he needs us to make an impression on them." Dirk replied
"Just because we stopped toxic waste from polluting all the world's oceans."
"Yeah."
"I hate him."
"Come on, let's head back."
Dirk got up and walked away and Al sighed. "That's right, I have to pay. Again. But hey, don't worry. I'm completely fine with getting the bill." Al said to himself as he called for the waiter
Somewhere
"Those damn idiots! I told them to be careful!"
"But they don't know it's you they're working for Sir."
"This jeopardises the whole job. Why is it that every single time you want something done you're gonna have to do it yourself?"
The man hit his fist on the table angrily, got up and walked away. No one was going to get in the way of him and if they did he was going to make sure that they got out of the way no matter what he had to do to make it happen.

The beginning, a little confusing perhaps but there will be explanation later on I promise. Please review, I'll be eternally grateful.
