Pharaoh's Tomb

You sneak into the professor's office, avoiding the campus police, and take the ancient map of the pyramid showing the location of the tomb.

Rushing back to your apartment, you gather a few items and throw them into a worn out suitcase and rush to the airport to catch the next plane

You will have your moment of glory this time, and the professor will get what he deserves. Smiling to yourself, you fall asleep on the bumpy airplane bound for adventure.
