"there is not a treasure map on the back of the declaration of independence" Dr.chase confronted"and there's no chance anyone could steal it either?" shaking the container that it was in
"I leveled with you 100 percent, everything I told you was the truth"
"I want that document Mr.Brown" she demanded
"Ok, my name is not Brown its Gates...I leveled with you 98 percent" he addressed
"wait a minute, did you say, Gates?...Gates?... your that family with the conspiracy theory about the founding fathers"
she turned around and looked at me
"let me guess your name isn't Brown either"
"Um no..I'm Alex Gates...I'm um..his daughter"
"It's not a conspiracy theory" he proclaimed
"you know what? I take that back your not liars. your insane"
"Hey, I learned a lot of this side of this family a few hours ago?when I got dragged into this to"
"you can't seriously intend to run chemical test on the Declaration of Independence in the back of a moving van" she insisted
"we have a clean room environment all set up EDS suits, a particulate air filtration system before shebang" Riley pointed out"Really?"Dr.Chase questioned like she was actually interested
"We can't go back there"
"Wait! what do you mean?" I asked
"Why not?" Riley added
Little did we know Ben paid with a credit card and the police was looking back at the tapes seeing Benjamin Gates and a young girl that nobody knew
"A credit card slip?!" Riley proclaimed
"Dude were on the grid... They'll have your records from forever, they'll have my records from forever"
"I know, I know it's only a matter of minutes for the FBI shows up at my front door""What do we do?" Riley asked agitated
"We need those letters"
"what letters?" Chase asked
"What's going on I was not filled in on this?"I poked in
"You know, get off the road take a right" he pointed out the window"
"What letters?"
We pulled into a park, I got out after we parked stretching my legs taking my shoes off leaning against the vans side door while Ben paces around and Dr.Chase sits on the vans floor
"you have the original Silence Dogood letters.. did you steal those too?"
"Did you?" I added
"No I didn't we have scans of the originals... Quite, please both of you"
"How did you get scans?" She asked
"oh I know the person who has the originals now shush"
I look over to Riley I saw him shaking his head"Why do you need them?"
"She really can't shut her mouth
I gave a small chuckle at his remark
"I'll tell you what, look I will let you hold onto this if you'll promise to shut up,please thank you" he gave her the tube and started to pace again"Ben you know what you have to do" Riley said
"What is it?"I commented
"Nothing,I know what I have to do I'm just trying to think of anything else we could do"
"Well not to be a... Nudge but you realize how many people we have after us we probably have our own satellite by now... It took you all of two seconds to decide to steal the Deceleration of Independence"
"Yeah but I didn't think I was going to personally have to tell my dad about it"
"Wai.." I was going to say something but Dr.Chase in the second decided to make a run for it
"Hey, not cool! Not cool!" Ben called out after Dr.Chase
Me and Riley started to go after her but she tripped and Ben grabbed her from behind
"Let me go" she struggled
Be snatched the tube and let her go
"Ok your let go. Go, shoo" she shooed her off
"I'm not going, not without the Declaration" she tugged at it
"Your not going with the Declaration" he tugged it back slinging it on his shoulder
"Yes, I am. I'm not letting it out of my sight, so I'm going" grabbing onto the strap
"Wait. Your not going with us with the Declaration" tugging it back
Come on is she coming or going!
"Yes,I am"
"No your not"
They bickered at each other
"Look, if you wanted to leave me behind you shouldn't have told me where you were going""Can we just go, I told my mom I be back by Monday" I called out to them while Riley was banging his head on the van.
