Seconds turned into minutes, and minutes turned into hourse, and neither one restarted the conversation until Chris was eventually tired of the silence.
- If you get me out, i can help you get the chaos emerald.
The digging stopped.
- And how exactly are you gonna help me?
- I have years of training.
- I have even more years than you. I can tell you're a child from your voice.
- Do you know how to drive a car?
- ... No.
- I do. How do you think you will get away after stealing it?
- How did you even know i want it?
- Years of training.
- ... Fine. I'll get the key after i get out, but this better be worth it.
- Deal.
The next day, when Chris woke up, Victor was already gone from the other cell, and less than an hour later, he arried at Chris's door.
- You're an even smaller child than i thought.
- Still taller than you.
He was about to leave Chris to rot in his cell now, but he remembered yesterday's conversation, and begrudgingly reached for the key.
- Next time you say something racist, i'll shoot you dead.
Now Chris knew not to push his luck.
- What's your name by the way?
- Chris. Yours?
- Victor.
The two carefully headed to the compound's outer wall, and went to the window of the emerald's room. Chris then began voicing his thoughts.
- One of us needs to look in and see if there are any guards.
- The window is too high.
- Then one of us has to be picked up.
- I'm not carrying you.
Chris then picked up Victor and gave him a view of the room.
- It's clear. Idiots. They have 10 guards outside the room but none inside.
Victor then got inside through the window, snatched the emerald from its pedestal, and returned to Chris.
- Easiest heist of my life.
Then two then heard about 10 gunbarrels being cocked at the same time, and looked around. 10 Guards were surrounding them. One of them spoke.
- Did you really think the room would be completely unguarded? There are cameras everywhere.
Chris then remembered hearing about an action that can be performed with a chaos emerald that has never been done by a human before. It was their last hope. He took the chaos emerald from Victor.
- Chaos Control!
