It consisted of building anew his air castle, and in riding out to the forbidden lava ridge that rose like a wall out of the sandy plain west of Sinkhole to choose the niche which might best be converted into a secret hangar.
Dave had been anxiously walking up and down the floor while Hiram was talking. Now he took his cap off a peg and picked up an umbrella. "You wait here till I come back, Hiram," he said. "Where are you going, Dave?" "Down to the Aegis hangar. This telegram disturbs me very much. I have no idea where Mr. Timmins can be, and something must certainly be done about this contract."
Because there's nothing up in the air to see. Wait till the old Skyrocket shoots up," and Jerry walked over to where the boys were standing. "Old grouch," he said to himself. "You'd think he didn't want to see us win out." Tod came hurrying back from the hangar. "Where's dad?" he asked. "Hasn't got back yet." "That's funny. I saw him leave the cabin as I went in to start up the dynamo.
This had never occurred before. He had given strict orders, backed by his brother's authority, that he was never to be intruded upon when in this place; and though he had sometimes encountered the prying eyes of the curious flashing from behind the trees encircling the hangar, his door had never been approached before, or his privacy encroached upon.
At that moment a small door at the rear of the hangar opened. The two friends heard the noise, and judged by sound more than sight. "Sentry!" said the man who had stepped outside, in a low voice. "Herr Lieutenant!" responded the man. "I am not locking the door, sentry. I shall be back before long." "Very good, Herr Lieutenant."
"You know, Roger," said Tom, watching Miles disappear into the hangar, "I have an idea he is one spaceman who'll back up his threats." Roger ignored Tom's statement. "Come on. We've got a lot of work to do," he said, turning away. The two cadets headed for the next hangar and boarded a ship with the picture of a chicken on its nose.
We hurried as fast as we could up the street and straight out on the field, across toward the Norton hangar, the crowd gaping in wonderment. Kennedy waved frantically for Norton to come down, and Norton, who was only a few hundred feet in the air, seemed to see and understand. As we stood waiting before the hangar Kennedy could no longer restrain his impatience.
They looked mistily introspective, as if they were studying some combination going on in the brain behind them; and when she could not talk about roulette she relapsed at once into absent-mindedness. But even her absorbed interest in the new pursuit was not proof against the hydro-aeroplane lurking in its hangar.
My big biplane is all ready to start, and they can get it in motion inside of a few seconds. Oh, why didn't I hurry?" he added, bitterly. But the hangar was still some distance away, and it would take two or three minutes of running to reach it. Meanwhile, and at the instant Tom had his thought of the possible theft of his biggest aircraft, something happened.
We locked up the hangar and hurried across to the station. It was late when we arrived in New York, but Kennedy insisted on posting off up to his laboratory, leaving me to run down to the Star office to make sure that our story was all right for the morning papers. I did not see him until morning, when a large touring-car drove up. Kennedy routed me out of bed.
