"Come on guys!" I call out behind me, as I walked down the airport with a slight skip in my step. I told my companions every detail I could offer them ... Stella had to help me take them to the airport due to my jeep having limited seats.

I adjusted the backpack over my shoulders as I walked up to the officer who was checking people's tickets to make sure everything was correct and they say who they say they are. I slowed down a bit as I noticed they haven't watched up yet.

"Are you sure you don't want me to take that Connor?" I asked as Connor rolled the suitcase into a corner of a bench.

"I'm sure ... this is a bit hard to control though." He spoke, glaring down at the four wheeled, heavy duty, suitcase. I would've have the people put it on the plane along with some of our other luggage ... if it wasn't for the fear that the contents in the suitcase could get damaged. Let's just say it happened before.

"Yeah, it's hard for me to move around too." I say, turning back to give the guard my attention. She looked pretty done with life after having an argument with a mom about one of their passports being expired.

I pulled out my government ID along with my badge, handing it to her. She took it, scanning it before handing it back to me. I gestured to the others behind me who were looking around the air port in awe. "They are with me." She nodded, not bothering to argue, knowing it was pointless.

"C'mon guys." I say, walking to the right, walking behind the other officers, going around security. I walk up to a man, guarding a narrow gap, a soft smile on my face as I hand him my ID.

"Ah dr. (L/N), going on another adventure I see?" He said, merely glancing at the ID before giving it back to me.

"Yep! Out to Egypt." I say with a bright smile, taking my ID back, slipping it into my pocket. "These guys are with me." I say, gesturing to my company behind me.

"Huh, now isn't that un heard of. What happened to working alone?" He questioned with a soft smile.

I shrugged, "You could say I got a bit lonely. Thought I give team work a try." I answered, glancing behind me.

He then nodded, "I think that would be good for ya. Wouldn't have to worry about and tribe men gettin the jump on ya." He then stepped aside, allowing us to walk past. "Have a safe trip." He said with a small wave.

I waved back at him in return, giving him small smile before walking down the narrow hall. "Jump by natives huh?" Jacob questioned with a smirk on his lips.

I rolled my eyes, "In Africa some of the tribe men thought I was stealing their relic when I was trying to return it to them after tracking down the real thieves." I step out of the narrow hallway, going towards the platform our plane was supposed to be on. "Cleared things up with the chief though so it was good."

We made it just in time to board, I handed everyone their tickets saying, "Give this to the woman up ahead. She'll scan it and give it back to you." I explain, going with the flow as we all got onto the plane with very little trouble.

I ended up taking the middle seat, placing my backpack in the cubbies above along with the suitcase. I slip a pack of gum out of my pocket, taking a piece out before tossing it into my mouth. "Here." I say, giving Arno a piece of gum out of its wrapper.

Arno took it, giving me a confused glance, "What is this?"

"Gum, chew it, but don't swallow. It help when we take off, help prevent you ears from popping ... painfully anyway." I say, before handing a piece of gum to Shay who was sitting on my other side, thanks to my quick think I asked if he would sit next to me. I tried getting Haytham but Edward beat me to it, but at least I get a chance to spend time with Shay and learn a few things about him. Arno however ... wasn't too happy about it, in fact he sent glares in the direction of Shay once he sat down.
