Largest Teeth Armitage Ever Saw

Armitage thought he had made his escape The enemies were rapidly slaughtered. If he were a cannibal, he would have roasted them. His ancestors would have had a fit, however, so he kept walking. The climb up the mountain back to his people was slow. So much snow this year, and their food supply had dwindled. He heard the hard-loud breathing before he saw the yeti. It was bigger than he imagined they could be. Dare he try to engage in one-to-one combat with this creature? He turned and faced the largest teeth he had ever seen. It would be a fight to the death; he had no idea if he could survive. Out of the woods came three more of his clan, weapons drawn, They yelled the war whoop of his nation and headed toward the yeti. The battle would be much more fair now. Armitage smiled. There might be meat for many suppers. He began to slash toward the monster in earnest.

What a story! It has a tinge of David and Goliath to it. But, he gets a little help from his friends...good!
