2 against 5
Diminishing Sands

“They put up quite a fight didn’t they?” I ask Krystal.

“What do we do about them?” I ask, looking at the bodies sprawled out on the sand.
“Well…” Krystal pauses, “I am a bit hungry.” She says innocently, but her intentions are no better than those of the murderd bandits.
