Fang giggled as he slithered across the stairs to the Rattle Section of the shop. He, as a king snake, wouldn't need the rattle. He decided to buy it as a gift for his rattlesnake friend from the desert. He chose a red one and settled into his basket.

He later slithered to the silk section. He viewed the variety of dull to light colors of scarves, when suddenly his eye caught something green. Right around the silk section was a green viper, her feminine head and large lustrous eyes illuminated by her pink flowers on her head. Two lotus flower clips on her head; three white beads on her tail. " My", a pig commented as he grabbed a piece of silk, " isn't it just-"

Beautiful.

He slithered around the corner, peeking at her from the side. He studied her tiny flower buds and her delicate nostrils, something he rarely sees from the desert. Such a delicate face, and fine long tail.

He followed her after she purchased her new silk scarves and walked down the aisle.


Viper clutched her bag closely till she bumped into someone.

"Hello-"

He was a King Snake almost twice as big as her, black as night, with a large hood. His black eyes pierced through her, and Viper just hesitated.

"No it's alright," he uttered. He grabbed the bad from the floor and handed it to her. " Happens now and then..".

As fangless Viper giggled, Fang couldn't help but think that she was cute.

And tasty.

"You are just so cute, I could eat you up", Fang murmured. He wondered about what his friend think of his gift and his desert home. Supposedly, his underground cave could use redecoration.

" Do you know where I can buy furniture", he asked Viper. " I live by the desert, and it's hard to find some nice quality silk and items back from where I am from".

" You mean here in the Valley of Peace?"

More like Valley of Shit, Fang thought.

He couldn't stand the valley, despite its green scenery and the variety of imported products, he disliked the hustle of rabbits and mammals selling things and rather prefer the quiet life of the desert, including its scorpions and rattlesnakes.

"Yes," Fang said. "Valley of Peace is very wonderful".
