Italian is not my native language and I have barely learned the language. Bear with me if you are fluent in the language. I am trying. And yes Italy is awesome. Sorry this chapter is taking so long. I do have a life, albeit small.

**I do not own Chuck** (Why can't I? I really want to)

Chuck, Sarah, Casey, and Morgan are discussing their plan. They know they have to search around Santa Maria Novella but don't know where to start.

"Do we still have those infrared goggles?" Chuck asks remembering the ones they were wearing in Shaw's apartment.

"Yea, we can see if there are any underground tunnels!" Sarah says in full synch with Chuck's idea. They put on the goggles and look out at the piazza. Morgan is amazed by the goggles and looks through the wall of the hotel room and sees the next room almost perfect. He is so amazed that he then looks around and sees Sarah. He looks her up and down while Sarah, Casey, and Chuck are looking out the window for an underground tunnel.

"Nice underwear," Morgan states jokingly. Chuck immediately looks at Sarah and smirks and then continues to look out the window.

"Like what you see?" Sarah asks playfully. Casey quickly steps in front of Morgan to block his view of Sarah. "Uhh! Not cool!" Morgan cringes because he just saw Casey's underwear. Casey grabs Morgan and turns his view out the window and grunts. They all continue to look outside the window.

"Oh! I found something!" Chuck says exuberantly. There is a tunnel that leads south from the church. All of their eyes follow it until it is no longer visible below the church.

"Ok, we need to get into that church and find the entrance," Sarah states their plan.

"Good plan," Casey says as they all start preparing to go down there. Morgan goes to the bathroom and comes back.

"Why are there two toilets?" Morgan asks.

"There is only one. Why would there be two?" Chuck questions Morgan. They all look in the bathroom and see the toilets. "That is weird. But it has a faucet on it," Chuck is confused. "Maybe a baby bath," Chuck jokes questionably.

"That is a bidet," Casey clarifies.

"What?" Chuck asks in astonishment.

"It is for cleaning your backside," Casey knows this conversation is going to get weird.

"A butt cleaner?" Morgan asks in a disgusted way. Sarah cannot help but to chuckle a little.

"Why would you know what that is, Casey?" Chuck asks him surprised he would know.

"I've been to Europe before. They have them in many countries," Casey responds aggravated.

"I guess they are a little more environmentally friendly with the whole saving trees stuff," Chuck says jokingly.

"Enough chit-chat!" Casey demands. He is always a business first man and nothing comes second. They all get back to getting ready for their mission.

"Make sure you wear conservative clothing," Casey stresses.

"What does that mean?" Morgan asks.

"Shorts have to be at least down to the knees and your shoulders have to be covered."

"Don't worry, I don't wear spaghetti straps or short shorts," Morgan jokes. They all look like a group of four tourists in their disguises. Casey is wearing a Hawaiian buttoned down shirt and some khaki shorts. Chuck is wearing a polo shirt and some jeans. Morgan is wearing a blank shirt and some plaid shorts. Sarah is wearing a nice sleeved shirt with some buttons in the front and a long skirt that goes just past her knees. They all head out to the church of Santa Maria Novella to find this underground entrance.

"How are we going to find this entrance?" Chuck asks.

"I don't know," Morgan throws in there.

"Not you, buddy."

"We are bringing the goggles into the church to look around," Sarah assures Chuck.

"We are going to look like fools in those goggles," Morgan complains.

"The bearded man has a point. We cannot just walk around with those on," Chuck concurs with Morgan.

"We look while no one is watching," Casey explains.

"Uh, ok." Chuck is questionable about that plan. They head out and go to the church. Sarah brings a purse, which is probably the first time she has ever used one. Casey brings a backpack. These are to hide the spy gear such as the goggles, guns, lockpicks, etc. They get through the security and look for a safe spot to use the glasses.

"This is amazing," Chuck is astonished because he has never been to such a historic church.

"Yea, the art is quite amazing," Sarah agrees with Chuck as this is her first time too. They all look around except for Casey who is focused on the mission.

"I don't know. It all seems unnecessarily awesome," Morgan adds in.

"Enough with the Disneyland Syndrome!" Casey almost yells at them and they all quickly look at him.

"What is Disneyland Syndrome?" Chuck asks.

"Yea?" Morgan is just as curious.

"Ugh, it is when you look around like an idiot and don't pay attention to anything else," Casey explains with a grunt in the beginning.

"Uh, ok lets find a secluded place for the goggles," Sarah says surprised what Casey had just said. They find an out-of-the-way spot and put the goggles on. They look around the floor to find the tunnel.

"I see it," Sarah lets everyone know. She points it out and they all follow it until it ends behind the head altar piece.

"We're going to hell for this, huh?" Morgan gulps as he says worriedly.

"Not unless you believe in all that stuff," Casey jokes being a very non-religious person. His only religion is patriotism.

"You'll be fine, it's not like it says you are not allowed to go under the altar in the bible anywhere," Chuck tries to comfort Morgan with a joke.

"Alright, but this is not a great idea," Morgan finally goes along with them. They get to the altar piece and look for a secret entrance. They feel the walls inconspicuously looking for a pressure plate, but have no luck.

"Why can't it just be like the movies where it is a lamp post?" Morgan asks as he jokingly tugs on a lamp post. The lamp pulls down and the entrance opens.

"Wow, I can't believe that worked," Casey is surprised and dumbfounded. They quickly and sneakily go inside and make sure they weren't seen and that the door closed.

"It is a little dark in here," Chuck states. A beam of light starts flickering around.

"Take it Bartowski," Casey says as he hands everyone a flashlight. They all walk through this ancient looking tunnel until they reach a fork in the tunnel. "Grimes! You're with me!" Casey almost yells in annoyance but just grunts. They split ways with Sarah and Chuck going left as Morgan and Casey go right.

"Have you talked to your daughter lately?" Morgan asks harmlessly.

"Don't push me Grimes," Casey states angrily knowing Morgan wants to see her again.

"Ok, ok. I just thought we would have a friendly conversation," Morgan tries to reason. After a brief pause, Morgan says "Why are we always together?"

"Obviously those lovebirds cannot spend a second out of each other's site," Casey says in annoyance because it is obnoxious to him too.

"Don't worry, I'll always get your back," Morgan exclaims as Casey shuts him up with a punch to the arm and turns off their flashlights. "What was—" Casey covers Morgan's mouth.

"Idiot, there are people up ahead," Casey whispers into Morgan's ear. Morgan immediately shuts up and looks with keen eyes. Casey doesn't pay attention because he is reading the people. Casey slowly sneaks towards the men as Morgan follows close behind. The men are dressed in suits and have guns on their hips. They are obviously not monks or priests. There is a light over the men and another fork in the tunnel. Casey pulls out his gun quietly.

"Put your hands up!" Casey threatens the two men. They are startled and try to pull out their guns.

BOOM! BOOM!

Casey shoots both of them and they decide to take the left path hoping to meet back up with Chuck and Sarah.

"This is so creepy," Chuck insists.

"Yea," Sarah barely responds too focused on the mission.

"If this is a Ring base, wouldn't it be a little more modern and high-tech than this?" Chuck asks.

"Uh, you know what, you are kind of right," Sarah is now looking at how ancient the tunnel is.

"Maybe we are in a crazy conspiracy and Morgan is the great, great, great, great…" Chuck repeats this for like thirty seconds. "…Great, grand son of Jesus Christ. Like the Da Vinci Code," Chuck jokes because this tunnel reminds him of that book by Dan Brown.

"That is just ridiculous, Robert Langdon," Sarah jokes calling him the protagonist of the book. Chuck smirks; surprised Sarah knows that much about the book.

"How much of that book do you know?" Chuck asks curious to see how fanatic she is.

"Enough to seduce you," Sarah jokes as Chuck looks dumbfounded. "Before I ever met you, I read over your file extensively and learned you liked that book so I thought I would brush up on it; just in case." Chuck just nods in a little bit of a depressed way because she isn't a fan at all and Chuck is a big fan. "I didn't think it would take this long for me to actually have to say anything about it," Sarah feels like she wasted some time learning about the book.

"Don't worry, I love you for it," Chuck tries to up her spirits. Sarah smiles gently but Chuck cannot really see her face because it is so dark in the tunnel. They keep heading forward as Casey and Morgan go along their path.

"This tunnel is so creepy," Morgan tries to spark a conversation with a guy who enjoys killing people more than talking.

"Yea, wouldn't this be the perfect time for me to kill you for trying to get with my daughter?" Casey jokes. Morgan swallows loudly in fear and the swallow echoes through the tunnel.

"Where is that damn golden idol," Morgan says jokingly trying to change the subject.

"What?" Casey asks thinking Morgan is on some kind of drugs.

"We need to steal the golden idol," Morgan tries to play around because he is bored. "You know, like Indiana Jones?"

"What is that?" Casey doesn't remember it.

"Oh my god! How do you not know what Indiana Jones is?" Morgan asks and Casey just grunts. "Were you bred in a CIA facility?" Morgan asks jokingly but still appalled that Casey hasn't ever seen Indiana Jones. Casey just grunts louder. "Come on, with Harrison Ford and Sean Connery?" Morgan tries to mock Sean Connery's Scottish accent as he says his name. "We need to watch that sometime. He is like a 1930's version of you!" Morgan exuberantly states.

"Shut up! We are in a Ring tunnel!" Casey almost shouts at Morgan. Morgan stops playing around and tries to act serious. They head through the tunnel and see some flashlight beams ahead of them. They stop and wait as the beams get closer, obviously turning their lights off. They wait in anticipation about to jump these people coming from another intersection of the tunnels. As they see the dark, shadowy figures, Casey grabs one and Morgan goes for the other.

"Ugh!" A familiar female voice lets out a shriek. Then they hear a sound of someone falling to the ground.

"Walker?" Casey asks, while easing off from choking her.

"Yea, wanna let me go?" Sarah asks politely knowing it was an accident. Casey immediately lets her go and she can breathe again.

"Dammit. It is just you two," Casey says disappointedly but is kind of happy to meet up with them again.

"Chuck you all right?" Sarah asks Chuck.

"I'm fine, but I might have killed Morgan," Chuck states not sure where Morgan is.

"Ugh, I am alright. Just a bruise here and there," Morgan painfully says as he gets up off the ground.

"Sorry, buddy. Reflexes," Chuck nudges Morgan trying to show he is sorry. Morgan understands completely.

Doesn't this remind you of Indiana Jones?" Morgan asks.

"No, I think more like the Da Vinci Code," Chuck insists.

"Well, I guess I can see it," Morgan thinks about it.

"Ugh, can you nerds act like spies for once?" Casey grunts because he is sick of them. They now move forward together. After a few hundred feet more, the walls are suddenly metal and new-looking.

"It's got to be up ahead," Chuck says optimistically. They all keep following very carefully, checking each corner before they go ahead. Casey is leading the pack and stops them at a corner. He does some hand signals that he learned back in the Marines. Sarah knew exactly what it meant but Chuck and Morgan had no idea. They just stood there with their eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Casey rolls his eyes and grunts.

"Ugh, you go here and you go there," Casey almost putting them in place like they are manikins. Casey peeks around the corner and sees a guard. "How should we take him out?"

"We can either kill him, tranq him, or knock him out," Sarah explains the options.

"Uh, how about tranq?" Chuck asks because he doesn't want to kill anyone.

"Alright, Bartowski. You're up," Casey pushes Chuck forward. Chuck prepares the gun and sneaks around the corner. He quickly shoots him once in the chest and the guard immediately drops.

"Piece of cake," Chuck boasts looking back at everyone as two guards, one from each side appear to help out the one on the ground.

"Shoot them!" Sarah exclaims as Chuck hesitates. Chuck nervously fiddles with his gun and finally gains his balance and shoots both of them.

"That was close," Chuck says under his breath and jokingly wipes his forehead as if he was sweating from concentration. Casey just nods his head in shame. "Well looks like we'll have to split up again," Chuck insists after noticing the two different pathways.

"I'm coming with you!" Morgan exuberantly claims as he runs up to Chuck. Casey stays quiet because he would rather be with Sarah because she actually knows what she is doing and is a great spy.

"Alright…" Chuck drawls out looking in confusion to Sarah. "You guys go right, we'll go left." Sarah almost wants to say she can't trust both of them together but she calms herself. They split up and Casey is finally with someone who is as skillful as him.

"I wonder how those two nerds are doing together." Casey says.

"They are probably fine. Chuck is a good spy now," Sarah defends Chuck like usual.

"I'm not Beckman. You don't need to defend Chuck from me," Casey tries to make the conversation informal.

"Wait up!" Sarah and Casey hear echo through the tunnel. They both look back and see Chuck and Morgan jogging to catch up. "It was a dead end," Chuck says almost out of breath.

"Yea, who puts a hallway that leads twenty feet and just ends?" Morgan asks breathing heavily. Casey just grunts in annoyance and Sarah flashes a quick smile at Chuck. They keep moving forward all together.

They come up on a door at the end of the hallway. It had writing in English and they are in Italy so it must not be an Italian place. They sneak through the door and walk into an office building. They look a little confused, not expecting an office building but still stayed alert. They sneak around some cubicles that are empty.

"It is too quiet," Chuck whispers. Casey grunts one of those ones that mean shut up.

"He is right, there is something wrong," Sarah whispers agreeing with Chuck. They carefully move forward even more alert than before. They walk slowly past a little hallway that has a door at the end. There is a sensor on the ceiling that detects movement and they didn't notice it. The alarms start blaring and the building lights up with red sirens. "Why can't we ever do something without setting off an alarm?" Sarah puts emphasis on 'without' and is annoyed that they always put themselves in more danger with letting the alarms go off.

"Lets move!" Casey yells as they head through the door with their guns ready to shoot. They run through the hallway behind the door. Sarah and Casey have their guns out ready to shoot anyone that gets in their way. They head through some double doors and there are two men standing there. The men go for their guns but Casey and Sarah cut them down with a bullet each. They keep moving quickly but not running anymore. They see a row of prison cells that have bolted steel doors with just a small square hole at eye level.

"What did that other spy look like?" Chuck asks.

"Brown hair, large chin, green eyes," Sarah lists quickly.

"Shouldn't we check if he is here?"

"He is dead already," Casey says coldly as if he was the one who murdered the agent.

"How do you know?" Chuck asks.

"It is obvious, that is what I would do," Casey replies.

"Not everyone is a killing machine like you."

"Well that ought to be."

"What was the guy's name?"

"Jeremy Bennet," Sarah answers questionably not sure why it really matters.

"Help me!" Everyone hears a yell of desperation from one of the cells. "I'm Bennet!"

"That is why I wanted to know his name," Chuck boasts as they head to the cell. They look at his face and it is weathered, his green eyes pleading for freedom, and his hair straggly. "How do we get this open?" Chuck asks.

"Step back," Casey says to Bennet nonchalantly. Casey pulls out a tiny piece of C4 and puts it on the hinge of the door.

"What don't you have?" Chuck asks surprised. Casey just gives a little grunt as he quickly sets the C4 as everyone steps away and the hinge explodes. The door is unharmed but the hinge is completely gone. The door then slowly falls into the hallway with a loud bang that shook the floor. Bennet walks out with beat-up clothes and in a tired posture.

"I didn't tell them anything." Bennet said under his breath.

"Can you run?" Sarah asks him. He is stunned by her beauty. He stands there paralyzed. Casey grunts and grabs Bennet and throws him over his shoulder. They head out of some double doors and look for the exit.

"I can walk from here," Bennet says painfully because Casey's shoulder is jabbing him in the ribcage. Casey puts him down and they keep going. "The exit is this way!" Bennet assures everyone and they all follow. They follow him through a few doors and he then reaches a door at the end of the hallway. "Just through here."

Casey busts through the door and the sunlight blinds all of them. After their eyes finally adjust, they notice they are at the Arno River, directly beneath the Ponte Vecchio.

"Whoa…" Morgan lets out of his mouth.

"Lets find a way up first," Chuck implies as he puts his arm around Morgan's shoulders.

They are all got back to Castle and are reviewing the mission with Beckman.

"Good work getting Bennet back. He has told us some vital information that will help us locate the rest of the Ring agents," Beckman congratulates everyone.

"Is he doing alright?" Chuck asks.

"He is fine," Beckman responds emotionlessly.

"Did the Lakers win?" Morgan asks Beckman. Beckman is appalled that Morgan asked that question.

"I'll call you when your next mission comes up," Beckman is disgusted with Morgan. The feed suddenly terminates.

"Why can't she ever say goodbye?" Chuck asks rhetorically. Sarah smiles at him and they relax at the table.

"That didn't go too well," Morgan adds in.

"It never does for you," Chuck jokes. He grabs his iphone and looks the score of the game. "Lakers won 83 to 79," Chuck states ecstatically.

"Awesome!" Morgan tries to high five everyone. Chuck doesn't hesitate at all and Sarah playfully joins in. Casey doesn't participate at all. "Don't leave me hanging," Morgan pleads to Casey. Casey just grunts and Morgan understands Casey is a no fun, all work guy. "I think we need to celebrate with some champagne!" Morgan is ecstatic. Chuck looks at Sarah with a 'what else are we going to do' look. Sarah smiles and they all look at Casey expectantly. "It definitely tastes better than Johnnie Walker Black," Morgan insists. Casey rolls his eyes and grunts a satisfactory grunt. They all know that means yes and head off to celebrate.

"Can you believe Casey has never seen Indiana Jones before?" Morgan tells Chuck. Chuck immediately looks at Casey.

"What? How could you have never seen it?" Chuck is serious.

"Is that a movie?" Sarah asks also not knowing what it is.

"O-M-G. Like Usher," Morgan jokes.

"We need to watch it tonight. Which one though?" Chuck implies.

"Raiders, dude. That's the best one," Morgan answers Chuck.

"Exactly what I was thinking," Chuck agrees with Morgan and they go home to watch it and celebrate the Lakers win.

Please review. If you're going to take the time to read it, the least you can do is review it. Let me know if you have any ideas or criticism. I hopefully will write the next chapter in a few days.
