1Thanks for the reviews guys. They really helped keep me going! I have the next two chapters wrote so if time is on my side, and if I don't get lazy and stare at my National Treasure movie to just stare Riley's hotness, I will try to get them posted tonight. But can you blame me. Riley is so hot! And smart and funny, and hot, and Cool. Did I mention he was hot? (Staring in to space imaging Riley in all his hotness) I'm back! Sorry. Well R&R!!!

Chapter 2

"Uh-oh," Riley said not even noticing he said it out loud.

"Well this is just great. Ian's out of prison, the wedding is in amonth, and now we probably have to go searching for another treasure that Ian is probably going to go looking for!" yelled Abigail.

"Honey. Please calm down so I can figure out the riddle," said Ben.

"Well Ben haven't you notice the 'B' in bright is capitalized like in that one riddle when the 'S' was capitalized?" asked Riley.

"Yes," answered Ben.

Ben began muttering, "13 stars and stripes, three colors. Glory, Freedom, Justice, and Strength. Philadelphia Design."

They sat there in silence for a minute. All lost in their own thoughts about the riddle. Ben finally broke the silence.

"Now wait a minute. Freedom, Justice, and Strength are what the 3 colors on the American flag represent. The 13 stripes represent the 13 colonies. And when it was first designed it had 13 stars. Philadelphia is where Betsy Ross, who sewed the first American Flag, lived," said Ben, "so that means the answer is the first original American flag."

"Boys I told you before we can't go hunt another treasure. Especially with Ian on the loose," said Abigail.

"Well me and Riley can go while you stay here and do the wedding plans," said Ben.

"Oh no you don't. You go I go. Remember," said Abigail.

"Honey if you go who will take care of the wedding plans?" asked Ben.

Abigail stopped just as she was getting ready to argue. Ben did have a point. If she didn't stay, the wedding unorganized.

"Alright. But you have to call me every day to tell me your okay and you also have to promise you will be back for the wedding," said Abigail.

"Don't worry I will," said Ben kissing the top of her head.

"So this does lead to another treasure?" asked Riley.

"Yes. It's called the Free Mason Treasure. I found about it a few days ago. I was going to wait until after the wedding to tell you guys about it so we could go hunt for it together. But with Ian on the loose we better go looking for it now so he doesn't get it," explained Ben, "Riley be ready to leave at 6:30 tomorrow morning."

"Can't it 6:30 at night when I've already eaten," complained Riley.

Ben and Abigail laughed at that very Riley-ish comment.

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

The next morning, Ben was up and dressed. He went to go wake up Riley.

"Riley wake up," said Ben shaking Riley's shoulder.

"Go away. Good dream. Don't wanna wake up," groaned Riley.

Ben pulled back and exposed the coldness of the morning.

"Alright I'm up," said Riley sitting up in bed.

"Good. Get dress and come downstairs for quick breakfast," said Ben.

5 minutes later, Riley was dressed and made his way down the stairs.

"Look who has decided to join us in the land of the living," said Abigail.

"Ha ha. Okay," said Riley.

After a quick breakfast, Ben and Riley were on their way.

"Well where do we have to go?" asked Riley.

"We have to go to the National Archives," said Ben.

"Do we have to steal again?" asked Riley.

"No. Abigail called and had it arranged for us to look at the flag," said Ben.

"Good," said Riley.

It was going to be another 2 hours to reach it so Riley fell asleep listening to his iPod.

After getting through the security, Ben and Riley were in the Preservation Room with the first American flag by 9:30.

"Well so far I haven't found anything," said Riley, "How about you?"

"Nothing,"said Ben.

"Do you think the riddle meant another flag?" asked Riley.

"Maybe," said Ben, "or maybe it's invisible. Go out and get those glasses I found at Independence Hall."

"Alright," said Riley.

Riley made his way out to the car. After searching for awhile, he found them in the glove compartment in a glasses case. As he was about to head back in, when there was a sharp pain in the back of his head. The last thing Riley remembered before his whole world went black, was the glasses dropping to the sidewalk next to him.

Authors Note: I know the first original American Flag probably wouldn't be found in the National Archives, but I needed a place so sorry. Well R&R!!!
