    "He's throwing his voice or using a microphone," muttered a bearded man with an Italian accent. 
    On the stage appeared the owner of the voice. 
    "He is using a trap door," the Italian muttered. 
    "I am Blake Fire," said the clean shaven Australian magician. 
    Another magician appeared on stage in flames he looked like a cross between a vampire and a magician. 
    "Trap door and pyrotechnics," said the Italian. 
    "And I am Max Starfire," said the vampire. 
    "My assistant!" said the first magician. The second 
    sneered and snapped "I'm your partner, Granddad!" 
    Max was the husband of Blake's grandaughter he was older than he looked. 
    "Max!" snapped back Blake as he beckoned Max to come over to him.

    Max pulled a hat out of the rabbit's mouth it killed the rabbit. Blake who was covered in rabbit blood screamed "Not again! Bring down the curtains. The show's over!
