The narrow escape

The sounds of multiple footsteps echoed from behind the door "We've got company" Grimgold said with a finger on his lips as he listened through the door

"Why do we have to stay back here when they're already gone?" One of the men said holding his rifle to his chest "it's not like they're dumb enough to want to come back here"

"I don't know why but the boss insists we remain here" The second man responded, covering the yawn in his lips

"Man, I'm hungry and tired. I could literally eat a horse right now" The first man said

"No you can't" The other argued "You could barely finish a medium burger let alone a full horse"

"You don't know that" The first man yawned "Let's just keep patrolling. We can't afford to let our guard down"
