Master Ace and his mother walked sloowly through the streets of tethyr city. It was a hot day, but neither them cared too much. Before long Reis heard the sould of a flute and got a bit excited. "Let's go watch the snake charmer. I've always wanted to see one in action," Reis smiled and they turned around the corner and caught sight of a man playing his flute. The snake had yet to come out the basket. It seems as though they got there just in time to see the whole thing.

(Oh good. My services are needed.)

It was a fammilliar sight. In front of him sat a woven basket, inside lurked a deadly cobra. It was an idiotic thing, it refused to leave the safety of it's basket. He had been trying for fifteen minutes to raise it. Up. Up! UP OR I'LL BEAT YOU TO DEATH WITH THIS FLUTE! The absurdity of it was getting to him. He was trying to connect his mind with a snake, he knew it was impossible, but it couldn't hurt to try.

As he playyed his flute, Radeus edged it towards the basket. When the snake didn't come out, he stopped playing for a moment and surprised the crowd with his next act. He took the flute in one hand and began mercilessly beating the basket. "GET UP YOU SNAKE!!! COME MEET YOUR DOOM!!!"

Master Ace and Reis stood in wonder and curiosity as Radeus moved the flute closer and closer to the basket, but the the snake still did not come out. Master Ace began to get the immpression that there might not be a snake inside at all. Both of them jumped as the man beat the basket with the flute while threatining the snake. They exchanged looks for a moment, and then Reis spoke over the murmuring crowd. " I think that would not be the best way to get the snake out. If you need help I can try my best to aid you in luring the snake out," Reis said with a smile. The crowd was sparse so Radeus could see Reis and Master Ace clearly.

Radeus looked uip at the woman who had spoken. She was standing next to a man, Radeus instantly took a disliking to him. A blank face and a tone that showed no feelings went along with his response. "I need no help... Sit back, and watch the show."

At his feet, the lid fell off the basket and rolled into the crowd. Radeus lifted his flute and plunged it into the basket, in hopes of destroying the stubborn snake inside. Glistining fangs and wooden flute collided in a dance of death inside the basket.

(Roll with it... this could be interesting. PM me if you have any thoughts about this topic.)
