---
An unreasonable amount of carrots.
---
Kai stared.
Andre stared.
---
There were sacks of carrots.
Crates of carrots.
Carrots hanging from the ceiling.
A painting of a carrot.
For some reason.
---
"What the hell is wrong with these people?"
Kai asked.
Andre opened a barrel.
More carrots.
---
"They need help."
---
The sound of approaching footsteps snapped them back to reality.
The cultists were almost here.
"We need to block the door!"
Kai said.
He grabbed the nearest thing he could find.
A broom.
---
Andre stared at him.
"You serious?"
Kai raised the broom.
"It can help."
"HOW THE HELL IS THAT SUPPOSED TO HELP?!"
Kai opened his mouth.
Then closed it.
Fair point.
Andre immediately grabbed a massive wooden crate overflowing with carrots.
Muscles bulged.
"Move."
With a roar, he shoved the crate across the floor.
It slammed against the doorway.
Then he grabbed another.
And another.
Within seconds the entrance was completely blocked.
The cultists crashed into the other side.
---
THUD.
THUD.
THUD.
---
The makeshift barricade shook violently.
Kai looked impressed.
