บท 57: Laughing Ravens
"What's so funny?" I was confused and the others were still laughing at me.
Lesha came and pulled me down the beach until we found another of the little armored demons.
"That is a crab and not a monster. They have a hard shell and then can pinch, but I am sure that Gloria had repeatedly told Mei to leave it alone. Mei needs to learn her lessons and Gloria will make sure of it. We just need to worry about us, okay?"
I rolled my eyes, but Lesha grabbed me and kissed me, almost knocking me over in the process. Then I was led by the hand back to where Kevin already had food ready and waiting. I noticed that Gloria had come back with a moving bag, but when I asked her what she had, she grinned.
I pulled back in revulsion when Gloria tried to shove the bag of crabs in my face. I pushed her away and scowled.
"Why do you have a bag full of those little monsters?!" I asked while glaring at Gloria, circling the fire.
"Because the little demons taste good! Oh, come on, K! You can't be scared of a little crab!" Gloria shouted while chasing me around the fire.
The witch had one in each hand now, she had abandoned the bag beside Kevin who was laughing at the two of us. I finally got Lesha between the two of us, but she started to scream and kicked Gloria between the legs.
"Oof!" Gloria uttered as she dropped the crabs and her eyes bulged, grabbing her crotch in pain and falling over.
Lesha had got her good with the toes of her boot and now she was on the ground trying to see if Gloria was okay. Mei, Tim, Kevin, and Mark were all roaring with laughter. Gloria got back up, holding her stomach, and then turned her death beam gaze on Mei and the men, who all shut up and found somewhere else to look.
"I had that coming, but wow, I have never been kicked there before. Wow, not something I want to try again! No amount of bracing can stop that gut-dropping feeling; I can kind of imagine how much it must hurt for a man to get his kicked with all that hanging around!" Gloria said as she was finally able to stand back up.
After we gathered around the fire and ate some stew together. We talked, even laughing about Gloria and my little chase, and then Lesha's shoe in for the victory. After we finished Lesha and I went to the tent and crawled into the bed we hand made.
I was tired from the day, and It didn't take long for me to fall asleep with Lesha's warm back pressing into my chest.

Mie woke me up by crawling on me and sticking her tongue in my ear. That made me freak out and I almost knocked Mei out with a solid elbow to the side of her head, sending her rolling off me.
I sat up and wiped Mei's slobber out of my ear, and gently woke Lesha up. Mei popped back up with a smile and looking fine. I rolled my eyes at her, but that just made the grin split her face more.
"Get some sleep, and no fooling around with Gloria! We are expecting trouble tonight, so we might need both your help," I told Mei as Lesha and I pulled our boots on.
"K! We only did it once! Don't be so heartless! You know I have needs!" Mei complained, and Lesha left the ten, so I went over to Mei and got up in her face.
"I have needed to! I have done it the same amount of times as you have and yours sounded far more exciting sounding than mine!"
Mei patted my arm to console me and smiled up.
"Okay, I will keep my hand out of her pants, but those are the only promises I'm making. I told you I have needs," Mei said, giving me a serious look.
I shook my head with a smile and kissed the little pervert on the forehead, then I headed back out to the fire where Gloria was just coming from.
"Goodnight, I don't think I have to tell you not to screw around, but just don't let Mei take advantage of you!" I joked to Gloria, and she smiled back at me, squeezing my arm as she passed.
"Goodnight, K."
Kevin and Mark were just saying goodnight to Lesha when I got to the fire, and the men said goodnight to me before leaving. Tim was just coming out of his tent, but that's when it happened.
The forests on the other side of the fire started moving, and men started to walk out, a lot of them. Not only were there a lot of them, but they were big and looked strong.
"Lesha, come!" I called and Lesha came back to me.
Tim was just walking up beside me, and the others were coming out of the tents. Only Gastbo and Corbit remained in the tents. This was bad.
"This isn't good, they all have the same tattoo of a raven, Guild of The Laughing Ravens. They are assassins and bandits posing as a real Guild. The problem is that they are a real Guild and they can throw their status around to get away with murder on the daily from what I have heard. We need to be careful of these men," But I cut Tim off.
Stay behind me," is all I said to him.
I was full of blood and ready to use. If this group wanted to play, then my girls and I would teach these impotent fools a lesson on attacking from the dark. I waited until the biggest one stepped forward.
"My name is Kal, I am not the Leader of The Laughing Ravens, but I am his second. Jester wishes to offer you a place to work from while you stay in Dyster."
"What?" I asked, thoroughly confused.
