As Lara read on, see discovered that a man in Texas was looking for competitors to race for some kind of artifact. The man was offering a cash reward as well. Lara had no idea why anyone would set up such an event. However, she knew she couldn't pass it up. She dialed the number in the paper.

"Hello?" said a thick southern accent.

"Hello, I'm calling about the race."

"Well little lady, what's your name?"

"Lara Croft."

"Ah, Miss Croft. So you finally decided to join."

"So you've heard of me?"

"Heard of you, Missy you're everywhere. Newspapers, magazines, even heard that Sports Illustrated wanted you in their swimsuit issue."

"Let's not go there."

"Very well, you'll have to fly out to Amarillo and from there we will give you your instructions."

"See you there then."

With that she hung up and began to pack.
