Max miraculously survived his trip to the airport, even with Wayland's driving skills.  Max and his family somehow got away from the would be pursuers on the freeway, but as they check in at the airport, Max is in for another surprise.

Wayland, Max's best friend and newly minted licensed driver, offers to drive the Hunter family to the airport.  Max is less than thrilled to be riding while his anxiety ridden friend is at the wheel.  En route to the airport Max notices some strange tailgaters.

Max comes home to find his house in shambles.  The culprit... his parents.  Max's archaeologist parents pack for their upcoming trip to Egypt and Max shares the news of his newfound running prowess.  His parents seem to know more than they are letting on.

Max Hunter is at the end of his sophomore year at Valley View High School.  Track practice is proving to be an embarrassing affair.  He's not the best runner, but today something is different.  Today, he is fast!

The adventure begins!  10000 BC, a desperate youth searches for his Master as a horde of enemies forms outside the Sphinx in Egypt.  Plato, an Atlantean, must find his Master, Venator before the horde destroys everything.
