"Well, well, well." Yoder said. "Fortune smiles upon the brave."
"Hey!" Nima said.
"Dad!" Jess cried, running to her father.
"I thought I'd worked everything out." Yoder said. "I hadn't accounted for our little thief here. Well played, Jess. Well played. But then, I was sure I had buried my ticket off this island at the bottom of the sea. But lo and behold. You slippery sons o' bitches survived. Wait, wait, wait. Did you...did you swim out of there?!"
"You bastard." Nima growled. "What will your bosses think when they learned you tried to murder us?"
"But, they won't learn about that." Yoder said. "Because one way or another, you're not going to tell them. I just don't know how we got to this point, Nima. You were the last one of my kind I thought I could trust. Things didn't start out that way, but we had worked out a mutually beneficial deal! But now, I don't even have that. All that's left for me is that damn canister. Now hand it over, missy."
Nima punched Yoder in the face.
"Nice one. Almost hurt." Yoder taunted.
"You looking for this?" Nima removed the thermos from her rucksack.
"You know, things don't have to be this way." Yoder said. "We'll kiss and make up, and share this payout, just like we planned."
"You talk to much, Yoder." Nima said. "Are we gonna fight or have boring conversation?"
Yoder quickly threw several punches, Nima dodged each one.
"Oh, you're pretty good." Yoder said. "Come on, Nima. You're a mercenary, just like me. You've got bills to pay. Are these two really worth all this?"
"It's not about the money anymore." Nima said. "I'm not going to let you hurt these people. No more talk. Shut up and fight!"
Nima threw three punches at Yoder, two landed in the mercenary's face, the other in the gut."
Yoder punched Nima in the face and side, sending her reeling. Yoder punched her once more in the stomach.
Nima bent over, gasping for air. She quickly regained her posture as Yoder pulled out his M1918 Trench knife.
The two circled each other, waiting for the other to make the first move.
Yoder slashed at Nima. She attempted to block his attacks, countering with punches.
However, Yoder managed to slash Nima across the cheek, chest and down her arm.
Yoder grabbed Nima and spun her around the electrified perimeter fence.
Yoder tried to stab her in the neck with his knife.
Nima blocked his attack, and grabbed the man and pushed him into the fence.
Yoder was knocked back from the ten-thousand volts surging through him and collapsed to the ground.
Nima fell down, trying to avoid touching Yoder.
Yoder's knife landed on the ground nearby.
The thermos was thrown to the ground and rolled a few feet away.
