Ahmad sat in the suspended iron cage looking down at his captors. The nearest troglodyte was not quite 4 feet tall. It studied Ahmad for some time and then reached for one of the scattered piles of body parts strewn about the cave floor. It chewed on a dismembered leg and gulped down the glutinous remains as blood dripped from its chin. &quot;Let me out of here you disgusting little grave robber. Have you no respect for the dead!?&quot; Ahmad yelled. &quot;HUMAN!! ... hmptht hmphthth, yess ,hrmpththt ... HUMAN!! .... mmppthtps.... No HUMAN knows what drives _MY_ Hunger ... hrmpth, hrmpth!!&quot; the ghoul shouted in a guttural voice. &quot;When I get down from here, _and I will_, you'll pay for that meal with your life!&quot; Ahmad screamed. He rocked the cage to and fro until the links in the chain separated and the cage shattered on the ground . He was free. Ahmad reached for the broken chain and advanced toward the small demon. &quot;And now you shall die,&quot; he said as he clenched both ends of the chain tightly in his hands. 2007-06-28T00:22:32Z http://ficlets.com/feed/story/3738 <p>intresting</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/3738?basename=3588 2007-06-28T00:22:32Z User 2828 http://ficlets.com/authors/user_2828 <p>Oh yeah.
