The young man's magic trick saved the day.

The young man was eager to learn magic. He had read all the books, and he had watched all the videos. He was ready to start practicing.

He went to the library and checked out a book on magic. He read it cover to cover, and he practiced the spells. He was getting better, but he still wasn't very good.

One day, he was walking down the street when he saw a man performing magic tricks. The man was very good, and the young man was impressed. He went up to the man and asked him if he could teach him how to do magic.

The man agreed, and the young man became his apprentice. He learned everything he could from the man, and he became a very good magician.

One day, the man told the young man that he was ready to test his skills. He took the young man to a crowded street and told him to perform a magic trick. The young man was nervous, but he did it. He performed a simple card trick, but the crowd was amazed.

The man was proud of the young man, and he told him that he was now a magician. The young man was happy, and he continued to practice magic. He became a very famous magician, and he entertained people all over the world.

One day, the young man was performing in front of a large crowd. He was doing a very difficult magic trick, and the crowd was on the edge of their seats. The young man was concentrating very hard, and he didn't notice that a man had snuck up behind him.

The man pulled out a gun and pointed it at the young man. "Give me all your money," the man said.

The young man was scared, but he didn't panic. He knew that he had to think quickly.

"I don't have any money," the young man said.

"Liar!" the man said. "I saw you take that wallet from that woman."

"I didn't take it," the young man said. "I swear."

The man was getting angry. "I'm going to count to three," he said. "If you don't give me your money, I'm going to shoot you."

The young man knew that he had to do something. He closed his eyes and concentrated. He thought about all the magic he had learned, and he thought about all the people he had entertained. He knew that he had to use his magic to save himself.

The young man opened his eyes and smiled. "I don't need money," he said. "I have magic."

The man laughed. "Magic?" he said. "What are you going to do, wave your magic wand?"

The young man didn't say anything. He just reached into his pocket and pulled out a coin. He flipped the coin into the air, and it landed on its edge.

The man's eyes widened. "How did you do that?" he asked.

"It's just a simple magic trick," the young man said. "But it's enough to get you to leave me alone."

The man didn't say anything. He just turned and walked away.

The young man smiled. He had used his magic to save himself. He knew that he would never forget this day.
