The Magician's Trick

A magician was performing on a stage to a crowd of eager fans. They watched with starstruck excitement as he made books levitate, a rabbit disappear, and turned an entire deck of playing cards into a stack of money! Watching each amazing trick, delight filled nearly every corner of the room, that is except for one.

"Boo!" a woman called out from the crowd, "There's something up his sleeve, I can see it!"

The magician sighed, "Mam, I can assure you there is nothing up my sleeve," he explained, holding open his sleeve to show its emptiness.

"Then, it's in your pocket!" she yelled, to the audience's annoyance, "It's not my fault that you're a sloppy magician!"

It had gotten to the point where the magician could hardly make a move on stage without a comment from the disruptive audience member. Seeing the perturbed expressions of the rest of his audience, the magician began to worry that his performance might be ruined if he didn't somehow take care of the troublesome heckler. An idea popped into his head.

"Mam, if you're truly curious about my magic, I welcome you to come on stage and observe me up close."

The woman laughed smugly, "I'd love to."

Standing from her chair she made her way onto the stage. The lights overhead illuminated her smug expression framed between two neatly tied ponytails draped over each of her shoulders. She was surprisingly shapely, with her sizable chest outlined beneath a tight-fitting t-shirt and a pair of short shorts adorning her curvy hips. Despite her sour character, the magician couldn't deny her attractiveness, it almost made him second-guess his plan. Almost...

The woman brought herself beside him as he turned his attention back to the audience, "Now, for my next trick, I will use my magic to manifest an object from thin air using only my hat!"

Removing the tophat from his head, the magician presented his headwear to the curious crowd, showing it was empty.

The woman looked on, unimpressed, "I'll bet you have a secret compartment inside that hat or something," she snidely remarked.

Ignoring her, the magician stuck his gloved hand into the hat and searched the inside. After a second of searching, the magician pulled something from within the hat and held it aloft for all to see.

Everyone watched in stunned silence as the magician unfurled the item he collected only to erupt into gasps at the realization of what he was holding. Among them, the most bewildered was the woman, who recognized the item in the magician's clutches as her own t-shirt!

In disbelief, she looked down at herself to see her shirt had completely disappeared, leaving her bare breasts out for all to see. The crowd erupted into applause as she frantically clutched her chest.

"H-how did you do that?!" she demanded, her cheeks burning with equal parts rage and embarrassment.

"Just a little bit of magic," the magician winked, placing her t-shirt back inside the hat.

"Don't be coy with me!" she growled, "And give me back my shirt!!!"

"Sorry, no can do," the magician said, tipping his hat over to show that her shirt was no longer inside, "The shirt has been whisked away!"

Again the crowd applauded, to the woman's chagrin.

"STOP SAYING IT WAS MAGIC," she screeched, cutting through the crowd's delight, "I know you used pulleys or wires to strip me! Stop with your tricks and give me back my stuff!!!!"

"It's no trick," the magician assured her, " However, if you don't believe me I'll show you again."
