Chinese coast, late 1938

The waters were relatively calm as the ship swerved in to the bay. There was no sign of great disturbance as the boat began to slow down.

SMACK! A fist slammed in to Indy's right cheek.

The archaeologist just smiled it off as his lip began to bleed.

'Who do you think you are Dr. Jones that you can follow me?' The attacker was about to pummel Indy's face again, when Indy caught his fist.

Quickly and firmly, Indy ripped the man's sleeve, revealing a swastika band on his upper arm.

'I mighta known Jimmy.' Indy smirked. 'I always thought there was something weird about the way you walked.'

Jimmy threw his fist in anger, but Indy saw it and jumped back, bringing his fist to Jimmy's forehead.

Jimmy staggered backwards.

Indy slapped his pocket to make sure the gem was still there. The gem was stolen by Jimmy from an American dig in South Korea. Indy was not about to let one of his finds fall in to Nazi hands.

Indy pulled out his bull-whip and lashed it up at one of the rope pullies on the boat and swung over on to a pile of barrels.

'Where will you go Dr. Jones?' Jimmy shouted up at the crusading professor.

'I got it all planned!' Indy shouted back.

'What the Hell are you doing? You haven't got anything planned!' He muttered to himself under his breath.

He quickly ran out of sight over to the other side of the boat.

BANG! The sound of a gunshot echoed behind him.

Better go! He thought, jumping over the side and in to the deep waters.

Using all his strength, he swam and swam. Not stopping until he came in to contact with another boat.

He must have swam six miles but he didn't care, it was worth it.

'My God!' A crisp, English accent shouted, 'There's a man down there in the water!'

'Yeah!' Indy shouted back up, 'Wanna give me a hand?'

'Sure thing old boy.' A ring came down with a rope tied to it. 'Hold on and we'll pull you up.'

Within seconds, Indiana was standing on the deck of a British yaught that was circling the Asian oceans.

'My word, what were you doing in there old boy?' The Englishman asked.

'I just felt like a swim.' Indy said dryly, wringing his jacket and hat. 'You gotta radio on this ship?'

'Yes, we do. Do you need to use it?'

'Yeah... thanks.' Indy moved towards the cabin of the yaght, knowing the radio would be there. 'Where are we?'

'Chinese waters.' The Brit answered.

'Mind if you drop me off on the coast?'

'Not at all sir, but may I ask your name?'

Indy turned to see the Englishman's face.

'Indiana Jones...' He outstretched his hand, the Englishman gasped as if he had met Moses.

'THE Indiana Jones? The world famous archaeologist?' He asked.

'Yep.'

'Wow...'

'Well...' Indy opened the room containing the radio, 'I gotta do something.' He walked in, closing the door behind him.

He quickly used the radio, finding the frequency for his dig site back in Korea.

'Marcus?' He spoke in to the mic.

'Ahh... Indy old boy, where are you? Did you get it?' Marcus' voice called back over the radio.

'I'm off the Chinese coast, get someone to come pick me up. And Marcus...'

He took the stone from his pocket, examining the gem. It was a tiny blue stone which was kinda ironic seeing as he had just risked his life for something so small.

'... I got it.'
