The Silver Flute

There once lived a rich, young man who owned many businesses. He was kind and he loved music. Music is his only companion since his parents died years ago and he was the only one left in his family. He then bought a shiny, silver flute. He practised it everyday and soon he became an expert. Due to an unexpected problem, all his businesses went bankrupt. He struggled to bring his wealth back...but failed. He soon had to pawn all his belongings just to live. The only thing he spared was his flute. "I lost everything... but this instrument I won't lose. Music is my only friend and with it I shall live." he said to himself. Then he became homeless, wandering through the streets, playing a sad melody with his flute. Then, one unfortunate evening as the old man was walking, he was robbed by two men. They took his silver flute and stabbbed him to death. The two men immediately sold the flute to a pawnshop which in turn sold it too. From then on, the flute is passed on from person to person.

Two men were mysteriously killed here. Some witnesse say they died of heart attack. Others say they strangled each other to death. The men were reported to be holdapers, holding a blood-filled knife. What's strange is, an old man was reportedly just inches away from the two men while they were killing each other.

A pawnshop cashier mysteriously died today. No witnesses. No sign of murder. No sign of medical problems. Last transaction made by cashier: A silver flute bought with a 1000 peso bill.
Security cameras show an image of an old man just a meter away from the dying lady...


Rumors and legends began telling that the old man's spirit is still walking the streets... lookind for his silver flute. along the way, killing the people who touches it. Truth or mere coincedence?
Well, whatever it is... I wonder who's next?...
