Chapter Thirteen
"Why did you let them get away?" Stormed Von Ran. "What happened to the invisible soldiers?"
"I'm sorry Sir, something must have gone wrong." After that no one ever did know what had
been the problem.

"Well," said Laura, "we still don't know what Hitler has up his sleeve."
"Yes, we do." Indy said. "An invisibility machine. Actually hundreds of them."
"What can we do?"
"We'll tell the people at the Pentagon and then them worry about it. I don't want you in any more
danger."
"Indy, how did you figure out that it was an invisibility machine?" Laura asked.
"Well, when my food floated in and then all those soldiers showed up wearing those funny hats..."
"Yes, I noticed that too. Sometimes one or two of them would be wearing a strange metal hat.
Well, I guess when I thought someone pushed me, they really did." Indy started the truck.
"You sure you're all right?" He looked concerned.
"Yes." She smiled up at him. They pulled out on to the road and drove off. They went back to the
Inn and made flight reservations for the next day.
After packing and changing their clothes they ate dinner. When they finished eating Laura went
out to the porch and stood looking at the setting sun. Indy came up behind her and put his hands
on her shoulders.
"It's beautiful isn't it?" She said as she starred at the beautiful blaze of orange, red and gold.
"I know of something even more beautiful." He said taking her hand. "Let's walk." He suggested.
They walked up a hill and then down the other side to a pond. The water reflected the brilliant sun
set as Indy turned Laura to face him.
"What I said, that day at the gas chamber... I meant it." He pulled her toward him and as he kissed her for a long time they were silhouetted in the last blaze of light before the sun set behind a far off mountain.
