You are about to answer Sarah when the woman pinned by the sphinx screams. Her scream is suddenly muffled as her head is engulfed into the sphinx's mouth. Sarah barely muffles a cry as you watch the gruesome scene in silence with a mix of horror and fascination. The creature makes short work of the woman's struggles as it steadily gulps down her meal. Soon, only the woman's shapely legs are visible outside of the sphinx's mouth, flailing hopelessly. Soon, it's prey is gulped down completely, now sporting a wide and slightly wiggling gut.
It sniffs the air, and turns toward you and Sarah. On confirmation of the witnesses, a low, menacing growl emanates from the creature's throat. At that moment, Sarah screams "Run!", and she grabs your wrist and hauls you away, running blindly into the forest.
