The Music Box

5. The Deal (Bargaining)

"Give me the box and I'll tell you the combination."

"I need the box if you give me the combination....."

"Please!" "No."

"Ill give you the combination if you give me his jacket." "Maybe..."

Hours of bargaining went by, till they finally agreed.

"Combination for his watch". "Deal." I smiled as she handed me the watch. "Combination?" I sighed. "19573" She grinned and handed me the watch. I pressed a button on the watch, a rope with a knife attached flew out, killing her. I killed the guards and stole the box. I ran out. I spent about 19 minutes running until, I slipped.

I saw the bottom of the waterfall getting closer, I closed my eyes.

Deal.
