"Thirteen to two? Not the best odds Rem!" He felt the man pressed to his back shake his head.

"Not at all, Theo!"

"Perhaps they'll yield?" Theo eyed the guardsmen that he could see in front of him and gestured with his rapier. "Well what d'ya say?"

The twelve stood on the cliff and looked down upon the damage that the storm had wrought. The ship was in ruin - the wind and the rocks had snapped the keel in two places.

Genre: Sci-fi
