The man undid the 5 locks on his stepson Peter. He opened the door & didn't see Peter. This very much puzzled him. All he saw was Peter's pet ball python sitting on a pile of his clothes & it had a DVD in it's mouth. The snake slithered towards him & reared up at him. It seeming to be presenting the DVD to him. Curious of this & thinking this might explain where Peter was he took it. He knew PS7s could play any DVD (burned or not). He walked over to the console, popped it in, turned the TV on, turned the system on & it began to play. He saw on the DVD Peter with only a pair of underwear on. "By the time you see this it will be too late. I just want you to understand what caused this." The man wondered what Peter was talking about. "Mom made me a prisoner my whole life. She was so scared that someone would hurt me or kill me if I ever leave the house that she locked me up in my room." He said. [It was so true. She is so paranoid.] The man thought sadly. "She wouldn't even let me have Internet access. She feared someone might come after me. So I had no friends." He said. "Can I come into view yet?" A female voice asked. [Who is that?] The man thought puzzled. "I only had my ball python Sylvia as a friend." Peter said. There appeared to be an edit as Peter was now sitting on the bed in a white rodent Animal Costume without the head over his own. Another person now entered the video & she appeared to be a blonde haired girl about Peter's age (which was 14) & she had on a reptilian Animal Costume without the head over her own. The man quickly realized the scale pattern on reptilian Animal Costume looked familiar. "This is actually Sylvia; my pet ball python. None of us realized that she was an Animal Costume User in a feral ball python costume. But she revealed it to me." Peter informed who & what the girl was. The man was shocked; he nor Peter's mom knew the snake that they got for Peter at the pet shop was an Animal Costume User. The girl flipped the costume head over her own & she shrank to about 3 foot transforming into a feral ball python. "Now as you may have guessed by the white feral mouse Animal Costume I got mostly on what became of me." Peter said getting up. [He didn't.] The man thought hoping he was wrong. Peter grabbed the costume head & said "Don't be mad at Sylvia or hurt or kill her. I had Sylvia steal your credit card & order this feral mouse costume because I wanted her to devour me. I wanted to be eaten by her while she was a snake & me a mouse. We both agreed to this." Peter said & he flipped the costume head over his own. He quickly shrank transforming into a feral mouse. Sylvia wasted no time in devouring Peter. The video then ended. The man heard Sylvia's voice behind him say "I hope you're not mad." He turned & saw her standing to his right human wearing the ball python costume all but the head. He sighed "No. You did what you agreed to do." She sat down on the bed next to him & said "He was a great owner & friend." The man asked "How long ago did you devour him?" Sylvia answered "Yesterday morning." The man sighed "Then he's totally digested by now. He's gone." Sylvia asked again "Are you mad at me?" The man sighed "No. You two agreed to you devouring him. You planned it out by getting him a feral mouse Animal Costume so he'd be a mouse so you a snake could devour him; which by law isn't illegal. It just nature." Sylvia said nothing. The man looked at her & told her trying to hold back tears "You were a loyal pet to Peter." Sylvia smiled at that. The man then asked "Did you stay all these years because you like being a feral snake?" Sylvia explained "I got this costume when I was 8 years old to experience life as a feral ball python. I never expected that on my first outing as one I would get grabbed by Animal Control & end up in a pet shop. And than be sold. I intended to leave Peter at first but I realized he needed someone. So I stayed. Most of the time I was a feral ball python. But sometimes I would be human to play with Peter. I know my parents don't miss me because they never cared about me." The man asked asked again "Do you like being ball python?" Sylvia answered with a smile "Very much so. I love being a feral ball python." The man asked "Is Sylvia even your real name?" Sylvia answered "No. Peter choose it for me." The man then said "Go back to being a feral ball python Sylvia. And don't come out of it unless I tell you too. I will be your new master." Sylvia did as asked flipping the costume's head over her own. She quickly transformed back into a feral ball python. She then adjusted her snake body as to not fall off the bed. The man reached over & hugged her tearing saying "You are a great snake." Sylvia hugged him back.
Sylvia never came out of her costume ever again remaining a feral ball python the rest of her life. The man was never angry or upset with Sylvia. He understood that Peter convinced to Sylvia eat him while he was a feral mouse. That Peter wanted to end his life as a feral mouse by having a snake devour him. He wanted his only friend to do it. So Sylvia granted his request. She was a great snake.
The End.
