Undersea Treasure

Even though my BFA is over, my series of the child's imagination continues.

For this piece, I have two children swimming in the ocean. While they are swimming, they see a shipwreck in the bottom of the ocean. When they look over a ways, they see a large box shaped like a treasure chest surrounded by small fish and sea animals, and also some seaweed hiding it. They swim over to it and open it up. When they look inside, there are gold coins, some jewelry and even a key. Before they can even take the treasure, a large red crab sits up on top to guard it. Will the children ever get the treasure, or will the crab keep it all for itself?
