The Army Major, thin, small and erect, said, âFrau Thibodeaux, this is the Reichsmarschall, Herr Hermann Goering.â
The heavily built man, wearing â incredibly â a toga-style white robe and holding on a leather leash what appeared to be a lion cub, stepped forward and said in German, âI am glad to meet you, Mrs Thibodeaux.â
âReichsmarschall,â Nicole said, âdo you know where you are at this moment?â
âYes,â Goering nodded. To the lion cub he said severely,âSei ruhig, Marsi.â He fussed with the cub, calming it.
All this Bertold Goltz watched. He had gone slightly ahead in his time, by use of his own von Lessinger equipment; he had become impatient waiting for Nicole to arrange the transfer of Goering. Here it was now; or rather, here it would be in seven more hours.
It was easy, possessing von Lessinger equipment, to penetrate the White House despite its NP guards; Goltz had merely gone far back into the past, before the White House existed, and then had returned to this near future. He had done such a thing several times already and would do it again; he knew that because he had run on to his future self, caught in the act. It amused him, that meeting; not only was he able to observe Nicole freely but he could also observe his past and future selves â the future, at least, in terms ofpossibility.
Of potentiality, rather than actuality. The vista spread out for his inspection of theperhaps.
They will make a deal, Goltz decided. Nicole and Goering; the Reichsmarschall, taken first from 1941 and then from 1944, will be shown the ruined Germany of 1945, will see the end in store for the Nazis â will see himself in the dock at Nuremberg, and, at last, will view his own suicide by a poison carried in a rectal suppository. This will rather influence him, to say the least. A deal will not be difficult to hatch out; the Nazis, even normally, were experts at deals.
A few miracle weapons from the future, appearing at the end of World War Two, and the Age of Barbarism would last â not thirteen years â but, as Hitler had sworn, a thousand. A death ray, laser beams, hydrogen bombs in the 100 megaton range ... would assist the armed forces of the Third Reich considerably. Plus, of course, the A-1 and the A-2; or, as the Allies had called them, the V-1 and V-2. Now the Nazis would have an A-3, A-4, and so on, without limit, if necessary.
Goltz frowned. For, in addition to this, other possibilities, murky and dense, spread out parallel with an almost occult darkness surrounding them. What did these less-likely futures consist of? Dangerous, and yet surely better than the clear one, the track laden with miracle weapons. âYou, there,â a White House NP man called, suddenly catching sight of Goltz, as he stood partially concealed in the corner of the Bog Orchid Room. The guard instantly whipped out a pistol and took aim.
The conference between Thibodeaux, Goering, and four military advisors, abruptly terminated.
