Chapter 2
Indy awoke with a start. He had been blacked out for over a day in half. His mind was pelted with questions and one found it's way out of his mouth, ' Where am I.' He picked himself off the bed he was laying in and examined the room. It had a blue carpet. In one corner was a table that had a bible sitting on it. He got out of bed and pulled off his same dirty shirt he was wearing in the desert. He made his way to the door on the left. He opened it and walked into the bathroom. The warmth of the shower soaked deep within his skin and washed away all thoughts of the other day.
Sarah gathered up her supplies on the bed of her hotel room. She still needed another twelve feet of rope, another 45. Caliber pistol and some good bug repellent. She packed up her equipment and slung one strap over her shoulder. She walked to the exit of her room and left for Indy's room.
The seat of the jeep was uncomfortable for one who was trying to sleep as Indy soon found out. They were heading back to the Temple of Light. The story of the statue had intrigued Sarah and of course she had to see what it was. When the jeep finally arrived, the Temple was nothing like Indy had remembered it. The outside walls were covered in a green. The translucent green that the statue had given off. 'What's up with the Temple of Light. It's kind of greener then I remember it.'
' That's the same color as the statue I smashed,' Indy said slipping his colt revolver into its holster.
' Your not planning to go in there are you,' Sarah said a look of fear on her face.
' Might as well it's not like its going to kill us.'
' Speak for your self.'
' You're the one who dragged me out here in the first place.'
Sarah nodded and reached for her bag. The steps up to the temple were cracked and didn't look very stable. She trudged up them and walked into the green building. The inside was covered with torches. The entrance led down to a flight of stone stairs that led strait into a rotunda. Three halls branched off from the rotunda. The halls were all on different parts of the compass. The south was the stairs she had just come down. There was also an east, west, and north hall. The center of the rotunda held a ten-foot high pedestal. The pedestal was plain for the most part. There was a white crumbling paint on it and no sign of the green light that had torn through the outside of the temple. She grabbed a oiled torch from her bag and lit it. Indy followed closely still nervous about the snake incident holding a revolver. Sarah made her way down to the rotunda. A small burst of air blew her hair back. She continued down the stairs and reached the pillar. It just stood there before the whole temple. It had no reason Wasn't holding anything on it. I wasn't holding anything up. It was just there. Indy got to her position and said, ' I got it.'
'Got what.'
'I understand what it means.'
Indy reached towards the pedestal and knocked on it with his knuckles. It was hollow. He then grabbed his pistol knocked it back and fired a bullet into the stone pedestal puncturing a hole right through it. Sarah nodded and kicked a hole in it.
The pedestal was down in a matter of minutes. Indy looked at the area the pedestal had been built around. A dark hole led down deep into the temple. Sarah looked down and dropped the torch. The torch fell about 50 feet before hitting the ground.
