"Fine, it's fun, alright? Figuring out how to pull it off...sometimes literally. You're a scientist. Surely you get the appeal of a good puzzle, don't you?" Mei's eyes showed no sign of rapport.

"When I solve a puzzle, I help to combat global warming. When you solve a problem, you ruin someone's life." Sombra scowled, ignoring that little nugget of guilt in her heart.

"I do plenty of good when I feel like it, and it'll be easier once I turn in your bounty." Mei's gun hand trembled, but remained steady.

"There's no law enforcement for miles, and from what I've heard of your hacking abilities, I don't trust you to not escape any room I try to trap you in. I could just freeze you, but..." Mei seemed to consider it for a moment. "Being frozen for that long might kill you. And unlike you, I don't crush weaker people just because it's fun. So I'll let you leave. Drop your gun and walk away. Reconsider this endeavor, and ask yourself if it's what you really want."

Sombra paused. Giving up this contract meant passing up more money than she may see in the next ten years. But the chubby Chinese girl had a point. She could just walk away.
