All right, here's the second chapter. I officially own nothing. Just the ideas that pop into my head at the most random times. And beware! There will be slash! Lots of it in fact.! So don't read if you don't like. But if you're reading this that means that you don't mind, huh?

I think that if they didn't like 'slash', they wouldn't be here. She really does mean random times, by the way. And remember, complain about the content of this chapter or be just rude, you'll answer to me.

Yes, yes we know already! Anyways, enjoy!

Turns out, all underworlds are connected. Like ancient civilizations thoughts on gods and mythology. Which means just about all the gods that the world has dreamed up are probably real? Amazing, I know. But it also means that an unknown number of doors that lead to the underworld.

Which was quite stupid, of course.

I pointed this out to Evie, politely of course. Then she assured me that she'd try to find the safest route. Try being the key word.

So then I said that my unfortunate unfilled love was NOT this important to risk her life with.

She replied with 'Maybe you should have thought of that before you asked me to marry you, you idiot.'

Then I 'huffed and puffed and pouted', says Evie, while she did all the backbreaking research that she had to go though while I sat there on my 'foolish arse', also contributed by Evie.

"We should tell Jonathan."

I wasn't really listening until she said her brother's name.

"I don't think so,"

"Why not?"

"Because I would rather not let your brother to know that the only reason I left his baby sister at the alter, was because I fell in love with a man who has a taste for world domination and immortality. He wouldn't be able to swallow that pill."

"I think that he would have assets to certain people that we probably need at one certain point of our adventure. He will be able to help us, O'Connell."

"Evie, I am not telling him that I am in love with an evil dead priest,"

"Then I will," She turned away in a huff and started to walk towards the front door of the library we where currently settled in.

I had to stop her. I just had to. I can't let this woman waltz off to have a nice chat with her brother about my nonexistent, and stupid nonetheless, love life. I just couldn't. So, I grabbed her arm and whipped her around to face me.

"Evie, no one is going to tell Jonathon. Not me, and definitely not you."

"We have to tell Jonathon! We-"

"Tell me what now?"

We both jumped. And then turned guilty towards Jonathon. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Evie glance at me and smirk evilly. I swear it.

"Jonathon, O'Connell is in-"

I clapped my hand on her mouth to shut her up. It's the only thing I could do. Now I have to say something to get Jonathon off of my back. But the question is, what to say?

"Umm... I... well you see..." Damn brain isn't working.

"Yes? What about O'Connell?" What's going on? Something meaning that we have to save the world?"

"Not quite,"

"Well, what is it?"

"Excuse me for a minute,"

I pulled Evie away from Jonathon to a spot where he couldn't hear what we were discussing.

"Evie, don't tell him,"

"Why bloody well not? What's the worse that can happen?"

"I lose my chance to tell Imhotep. And I never able to call him my best friend again. You too for that matter."

"Excuse me! You two left me hanging here!"

"One minute Jonathon. So what do we tell him?"

"I don't know! You think up something! You're the smart one!"

"You know you can't leave everything to me when you don't know what to do!"

"HEY!"

We looked over our shoulders at Jonathon.

"Now that I've got your attention, you can answer my question."

"Know what? Never mind Jonathon. It doesn't require your assistance anyways."

"Oh thanks. You do a great deal to my confidence, Evie. And I thought that the next time you were going to see O'Connell, was when you were going to make him regret meeting you."

"Well, I changed my mind. So what?"

"Well you wouldn't change your mind for no reason. You're much more stubborn. So what's the reason for changing your mind?"

"It's none of your business,"

"Relax, O'Connell, I won't tell anyone."

"I'm not worried that you'll tell anyone."

"Then tell me!"

"No!"

"Listen you yan-"

"Will you two stop? It's bloody annoying! Jonathon, Rick won't be telling you anything. Now leave it alone!"

"Jeez, cranky much! Fine! I'll leave it alone!" Jonathon turned on his heel and stormed out of the library. Evie and I flinched when he slammed to library door.

"I think that you should have told him, Rick."

"Maybe later. Did you find anything?"

"Yeah, but it's just a little something."

"What is it?"

"It is a way into a underworld."

Ok, good. A way into - wait. "What do mean 'a'?"

"This door leads to a underworld. A realm of a goddess."

"Which goddess?"

Evie looks at me from under her lashes. That's when I know that this adventure isn't going to be easy. And most likely deadly.

"Astarte's realm."

Well? Did ya like it? Remember who Astarte is? Think and if you don't remember I'll tell you on the next chapter. Now all you got to do is review! And all you got to do is press a couple of buttons and type a little! It's not hard! Trust me!

Review so she doesn't go crazy.
