Ok, here it is, just be prepared, it's really bad. I'm sorry, but at least I told about the characters and stuff.

Chapter III

The sentence, ‘How did I end up working with so many insane people?’ went through Abner's mind every few minutes at the Historical Society's Personal museum. A man with a large scar down his face, wearing a bullet proof vest and a dagger on his belt to his right, and a fair skinned woman with dark hair and an eccentric look in her eye to his left. They were following Dr. Chen down a hall filled with Egyptian and Arabian ahnks with a onyx trove every few feet, all 3 trying to make out the Doctor's broken English.
“Are you getting any of this?” The 21-year old woman whispered to Shaggy. He nodded slightly.
“We almost there,” Dr. Chen said to the three young adults. He led them into a white room. There was a table in the middle, and a projector aimed at one of the walls.
“Please sit,” Short Round said as he fed a slide into the projector. “Where’s Indy?” He asked Shaggy.
“I don’t know, he must have gotten caught up somewhere.” Shorty nodded and then addressed the entire group.
“You all come here for me to tell you about the legendary Fountain of Youth, before you leave. You know the Fountain is said to be imaginary, but that no stop Dr. Jones from looking for it. It make old people young, and heal all sicknesses. Spanish explorers look for it a long time ago, but they no find it. People have looked for it for centuries, but no one has found it and lived.”
“Which is why we’re here,” the man sitting across from Shaggy said excitedly. Abner looked at him with amusement. His name was Alex. He was 22 years old and one of Indiana’s best students. He wore olive green baggy pants, a bullet proof vest over a long sleeved black shirt, and the foot long dagger was kept in a holster on his belt. He had tall, brown boots on, and his ear-length dark blonde hair was going in all directions.
“Yes,” Dr. Chen said absently. He turned off the lights and turned on the projector.
“These are pictures of what the fountain may look like.” He clipped on several shots of regular looking fountains.
“You said no one has ever found it and lived. Does that mean someone has found it?” The young woman asked.
“Maybe. About 30 years ago, some lady say her husband found the Fountain, but he die of injuries before he could tell anyone but her about it.”
Shaggy looked over at the young women sitting beside him. She had on black pants and a white blouse, and had glasses that accented her dark eyes. Her straight black hair fell to her shoulders, and she sat forward, interested.
“Is she still alive?”
“She was alive 3 years ago, maybe she dead now.”
All four looked up when they heard a knock on the door.
“Dr. Jones!” Short Round exclaimed excitedly, turned on the lights, and ran forward to greet Indiana who was standing in the doorway.
“Good to see you again, Shorty,” Indy said and gave the doctor a brief hug. “Sorry I’m late, I got a little…preoccupied yesterday.” The two students and Shaggy walked forward.
“Alex, Ana, how are you?” he said and shook both of their hands. “Shaggy,” he said and gave the 17 year old a half hug.
“Where’s Mom?” Abner asked.
“She wanted to stay in the hotel, said she didn’t want to come out and get mixed up in another adventure. I’m sure she’ll show up sooner or later though. Hopefully. She made me walk, she took the car. So, what’s happening so far?”
“I think that we’ve come to the conclusion that the Fountain of Youth isn’t anywhere, not in any lost, or found, city, but we’re going to look for it anyway,” Alex said with a tone of sarcasm in his voice.
“Great! That’s how all good adventures start out!” Indy said enthusiastically.

Ok, so Shagiana, you're going to do the next chapter, right? And I'll do the one after that if you want.
