In the heart of a hectic city, where skyscrapers reached for the stars and the streets full of citylights there lived a python named Pythander. Unlike his fellow pythons in the wild, Pythander had his home in the forgotten corners of the urban landscape.
Pythander possessed a unique gift : The power of hypnotism. Pythander had the power to hypnotize those who gazed into his alluring eyes, bending their will to his own. But despite his hypnotical abilities, he had a deep sense of loneliness, yearning for connection in a world that often seemed indifferent to his presence.
One night it so happened that when everyone was a sleep beneath the blanket of stars, Pythander sensed danger lurking in the darkness. He slowly started to head towards the area where he sensed danger.
As he entered into a dimly lit street, he saw a small girl who was kidnapped by a kidnapper. Pythander slowly went towards the kidnapper and in the blink of an eye, he coiled himself around the legs of the kidnapper, sending him crashing to the ground with a startled cry. The knife in the kidnapper's hand clattered to the pavement as Pythander tightened his grip. His hypnotic gaze made the kidnapper to go into a trance-like state.
As the threat neutralized, Pythander went towards the girl and made her ease herself. Soon her parents came searching for her and as soon as the girl saw them she ran towards them and hugged them. Watching this Pythander had tears of joy in his eyes. By the time the girl saw him, Pythander slowly disappeared in the shadows of the night.
But the night was not yet over for the Pythander. As he made his way through the city, he encountered another soul in need of his aid.
This time a jewellery shop owner was surrounded by three goons with guns in their hands. As the lights were dim, the police who reached there were also unable to save the jewellery shop owner from the goons.
Pythander saw this and he went near the goons. As soon as he got an opportunity, he coiled himself around the legs of the three goons at a time, sending their heads to hit the ground. As they fell down, the police jumped in the scenario and arrested all the three goons.
The jewellery shop owner saw something slithering away in the dark. Somewhere, he knew that the slithering thing has helped him. He expressed his gratitude towards the unlikely hero who had come to his rescue.
As first light of dawn cast its warm embrace over the city, Pythander disappeared into the shadows once again. His heart was filled with fulfillment. Though his actions had gone unnoticed by most, he knew that he had made a difference in lives of people whom he saved, proving that even the most unlikely heroes can emerge from darkness to bring light to the world. Cheers to all such heroes.
