Chapter 25 by Tessa

"So which lady would it be, Dr. Jones?" Dolomite asked, "The blonde
or the brunette?"
"I told you they're both important."
"You have to choose which one you like better."
Indy looked at Kate and Marion and back to Dolomite. Indy smiled a bit and
said,
"You can't find it if you're dead."
"Or if you're dead, but I’m willing to take that chance" as Dolomite pointed the gun at Indy and pulled the trigger.
"Dear God, no!", Kate said as she ran in front of Indy and got hit
with the bullet just above her right breast. She collapsed to the ground as
Indy caught her and said,
"Kate, no. Don't leave me."
"I'd never leave you," smiling weakly.
Indy gently put her down as Eliot took a piece of cloth out of his
pocket to stop the blood. Indy stood up, fists clenched as Dolomite said,
"You'd be no use to her if you're dead," pointing at Kate, "I can get
a doctor to help her in Goa if you help me."
"Indy," Marion said, "she lost a lot of blood."
"Do…what you think…is…best, Indy," Kate said softly.
Indy looked at his wife and then to Dolomite as he said,
"All right, I'll help you. But you better save her or there's no
deal."
"I wouldn't have it any other way, Dr. Jones," grinning at him as he
ordered his men to take Kate to the hospital. Eliot looked at Indy and said,
"I'll stay with Kate. You go with Marion."
"She will be in best hands, Mr. Ness," Dolomite said, "You can go
with Dr. Jones and the other lady."
"She is one of my oldest friends," Eliot said, "Like a sister to me."
"Eliot," Indy said firmly, "stays with Kate, Dolomite."
"If you insist," as Eliot followed the men to the hospital.
Marion looked at Indy and said,
"You've got yourself a partner, Indy."
Indy looked at her and said,
"Let's go then, partner," as they headed off to the mountain cave.
