1 The Archeologist

It's the year 1995 AD.

So much have changed over the past years. Technology is booming and the people are treated equally under a just system called 'THE GOVERNMENT'.

This is the year where Tomb Raiding is well funded by the 'The Government'. All of their findings are being bought by the Government. Be it just a simple plate found in ruin? The government will buy it!

Due to the excessive abuse of people who demands too much about in everything they found in a ruin. The Government had launch a program enables people to be legally able to search the ruins and not sell some cheap junk to the government. They are called `The Archaeologists`, they are the people who are specialized about ancient history and technology. But in order for them to be called as an Archeologists one must pass the requirements:

⒈ One must pass the Exam.

⒉ One must be Physically Fit.

⒊ One must learn all the Ancient Language.

⒋ One must be willing to sell all of the treasures found in the ruins.

⒌ One must remain loyal to The Goverment.

"Aish! This is a walk in a park for me! I've already learned everything from my Father!", said Lance , "I've been waiting for 10 whole years, in order for me to join the infamous Archeologist! My whole life revolves around it! I must not fail in order to achieve my dreams!"

As soon as Lance finished answering the exam sheet, he immediately passed his paper to the Examiner and waited outside the Exam Hall to know the results.

An hour and a half have passed, the Examiner shouted, "In my hands are the results of the Exam that you have taken. It's either you fail or pass that is the only result. Well I'll be calling names!"

Allysa Snow - Passed

George Lucas - Passed

Joe Alistair - Failed

Layla Reiss - Passed

...

Daniel Craig - Failed

Lance - Passed

"Those people who have passed you will be called as Recruits, from now on until you graduate you will called Recruits."

The examiner had lead the the new recruits to a Bunker, and assigned them to their respected beds. "Recruits, rest up training will start tomorrow! This is the only rest that you will enjoy for the next 6months! Congratulations in passing the Exams, tomorrow, hell training will begin!"

/*--------*/

Everyone was working their best in order to join the Archeologist! Day and Night they will study and train.

In the Day they will train their mind, by reading ancient text and languages that are most probably dead, Puzzles and Riddles, and also they are trained some Strategies. At Night they are trained to Climb a mountain, Search in a cave, Diving and many more, but most importantly they trained to Fight! Who knows it might come in handy...

/*--------*/

6Months flew by in a flash. And all of Lance's classmates and him had survived the hell training. And now they are officially called as The Archeologist, but Lance's himself had earned a prestigious award. For being a well knowledgeable person and has a mind like a Philosopher and a Body as strong as Combat Fighter. And only a handful of people have received this award in the past.

"Lance what are your plans?", George asked.

"I think I'll be going to my parents place and maybe go somewhere remote? I don't know. I want to go to a ruin that will blow the everyones mind of the findings I have found. Lost Civilization and Ancient Cities." Lance happily replied.

"Well I guess there's no stopping you now Genius of the Class *laugh*, see you around Lance!"

/*-------*/

Just as what Lance told George about his plans. Everything went smooth and Lance immediately became famous for his discovery and contributions to the Government. But the one thing that made him famous, is him finding a ruin. A ruin that have been left untouched for centuries.

"This is my biggest break! If I pull this off, I will retire and enjoy my life!", he stared the entrance to the ruin with confidence.

Just as soon as he said that, he heard a faint voice somewhere inside the ruin, "Finally I have found you!!!"
