...
We went to find Evelyn. Saw her reading a book. We sneakily walked up to her and Rick being Rick dropped his bag in front of her. She jumped a mile. "Sorry for my idiot brother, Evy!" I gave a look at Rick.
"Sorry. Didn't mean to scare ya." At least he's looking sheepish. "The only thing that scares me, Mr. O'Connell, are your manners." She went back to her book.
Taking my bag off my shoulder, listening to Rick and Evy's conversation. Which is funny I might add.
"Still angry about that kiss, huh?" He just had to bring that up.
But thankfully she's quick, "well, if you call that a kiss?" I just had a massive grin on my face. I think Rick didn't like that comment. Soon, after she said that he opened his bag, which is full of his guns. I opened my bag taking my baby out, my good old pistol. God this helped me along the way.
Evy saw all the artillery with wide eyes. Taking her glasses off and putting her book down somewhere. Being curious, she pulled forward "Um, did I miss something? Are we – Are we going into battle?" We both looked straight at Evy.
Rick said straight away, "Lady, there's something out there." While cleaning my shotgun, I told her "Something underneath that sand." She dismissed it, by saying "Yes, well, I'm hoping to find a certain artifact. A book, actually. My brother thinks there's treasure."
She looked at both of us, "What do you think's out there?" Rick looked at her "– in a word? Evil."
I carried on for him, "The Bedouin and the Tuaregs believe that Hamunaptra is cursed." Evy just looked at us like we were crazy. "Oh, look, I don't believe in fairy tales and hokem, Miss and Mr O'Connell… But I do believe one of the most famous books in history is buried there." She paused.
I looked at her trying to figure her out, but she continued, "The Book of Amun-Ra, it contains within it all the secret incantations of the old kingdom." She sort went into a zone "It's what interested me in Egypt when I was I child. It's why I came here – sort of a life's pursuit." Coming out of her zone.
Rick looked at her a give her a look between confused and amused, "And the face that they say it's made out of pure gold makes no never mind to you? – Right?"
She looked impressed and she pointed at him "– you know your history." I shook my head "nope, he knows his treasure." She started to look uncomfortable. She looked at Rick, "Um… By the way… why did you kiss me?" He shrugged "I was about to be hanged. It seemed like a good idea at the time." Looking at my stupid idiot of a brother, shaking my head of disappoint. She got up a huff, furious. "What? What'd I say?"
"You are such an idiot Rick! You still have no clue how to talk to women!" Annoyed with him, I got up from the chair. Not before we hear a noise.
