It is almost seven years after her adventure with Rick, Imhotep, Evie, and well... The crew. Let's say it like that. Seven-year has flown by. And still, Ashley thinks about him... Ardeth. She mourns him still. She still misses him. And sneaky he is the reason that she didn't go on any adventures anymore. She and Rick still are really close, but she just won't join him anymore. That is until she picks him up from the airport again.
