The little four year old girl quickly ran under the same desk has her best friend. Her best friends soon to be step brother had been playing army and hadn't had time to put it back. He too ran under the same desk.
The grownups were talking as they entered. They continued to talk and hadn't noticed the papers or the army man missing.
The three little children sat close together quietly hoping that the toy that rattled wouldn't. Her best friend's soon to be step brother held tight the army man. Those grown-ups talked in english and german mixed together. They said "We'll use all their ideas and test them on them."
The little girl was scared. She knew that the professor wouldn't take the blame if something happened.
They said "We have the perfect idea to get back Hitler's Germany."
They went on talking. When someone asked for the soon to be step brother. He came to pick him up. Only he wasn't found and they told him to come back later.
The three little children wanted to run out from under the desk only there were legs in the way.
The grownups continued their talking. When the professor noticed the army man missing from the chessboard.
