"You're right."

Chris' eyes shot open. He stared at the older woman in disbelief. "W-what?"

Elizabeth sighed and suddenly looked over twenty years older.

"I said you're right. What we're doing is wrong. I guess I was just so caught up in the exitement of getting this mission that I completly forgot-
OW!"

Chris looked down. The green fishhuman had bitten the woman in the leg. He hissed at both of them, tears streaming down his face, and pointed at his friend, who was now more blue than his scales and close to losing his conciousness.

"Right...", Chris mumbled and grabbed the blue ones tail. "Come on, help me!", he yelled at his boss. He'd probably get killed for that later, but it would be worth it.

She just shook her head and grabbed the tail. Together they lifted their great treasure up and threw it over the railing into the sea, followed by the green one.

A second before he was thrown in, his eyes met with Chris' for the last time. He was smiling.

Thank you for making the right choice.
