Thrown

Five people, ten guns.


Everyone had two trained on them, and no-one was quick enough to take the shot. After several long seconds, the tension was broken by a voice.


"Well this is a situation, huh?"


The voice seemed to be coming from the radio at the far side of the room. Everyone began to fidget.


"I don't have all day. Just end your fake partnership and let's be on our way."


The two married couples blinked and all four fired.


As they fell to the floor, the survivor was grateful they'd kept up their ventriloquism training all these years.
