You're worried about waking the Ekans from sleep and decide that it is too risky to steal some food. But another thought crossed your mind. Perhaps you could just eat the Ekans before it figured out what was happening. You step quietly over towards it and kneel down, gently picking up its head and opening wide. You took the snakes head inside and started swallowing as you pushed it further in. The Ekans did soon wake up and start thrashing around while dangling from your mouth. You slurped the snake up like a thick noodle and finally felt some relief as it was reaching your stomach. A few gulps more and you were finished. You look down at your fluffy yellow belly now that the Ekans was curled up inside, muttering a soft giggle as you felt it move.
Looks like you solved two problems at once. Your stomach is full and you don't have an Ekans to worry about. You try to sneak out the way you came in..
