A few days had passed since Kaira moved out of the Villainy Inc. HQ and that day she was returning there at the summons of TonyCastelli.

She didn’t want to go there empty handed, so she decided to buy some gifts for the crew members. Outside there was a hot weather and the sun was shinning bright.  Before going around shopping she decided to sit on a bench and write a list so she won’t forget anything.

While sitting there she took a few moments to look at the streets. The streets were colorful and crowded. People were roaming around doing their business. Some of them had happy expressions on their faces meanwhile others looked sad or stressed. She couldn’t stop wondering what they were thinking and what thoughts were hiding behind those faces.

Caught in her thoughts she failed to notice AlejandroGuevara who now was tapping on her shoulder trying to get her attention. Kaira greeted him and made space for him to sit next to her.

She then explained the reason for her presence around there and asked advice on the gift list not before asking for a pen since she clumsily forgot to bring one with her.

• TheButcher – knives / dictionary/ jokes book ✔

What do you think would be the best gift for TheBitcher? Kaira asked Alex knowing that there is no one in the world who knows Butter better than Alex.

AlejandroGuevara smiled at Kaira and then gave her some kinky tips on the gift which she ignored because she didn’t find appropriate.

Why on the earth I would buy him a ball gag or gag ball or whatever you are saying there and a whip? She raised her eyebrow.

• Klejnot– Cheesecake/ stuffed toy for snuggles ✔

Tony once mentioned cheesecake so I think this will do. She told Alex.

• Preeyah – Baking recipes magazine because she has been slacking lately with the backing ✔
• Joy – helmet to use as a shield against charming men since I left the HQ ✔
• James - Alcoholics Anonymous brochure ✔
• GuvNaylor – hangover medicine for a party animal ✔   (ꃋิꎴꃋิ)
• Junebug – chocolate milkshake ✔
• Shinni – SWAG’s banner alongside unsalted watermelon as an attempt to make him taste perfection ✔
• The_Kid – lollipop/ hat with a spinner on it ✔
• DarGabrielson – movie projector, will have to wait until next time for the movie reel since Tony’s taxes are way too high and her budget is low. ✔
• TonyCastelli – Bottle of whiskey/ fire extinguisher/ a banner reminder that Kaira is his best member ‿︵‿︵(ಥ﹏ಥ)‿︵‿︵

She stood up as she finished the list and asked Alex to accompany her through the city and help her with the gifts. She didn’t figure out what could be a good gift for her boss, so she decided that looking around might help her come up with an idea.

Meanwhile shopping she stumbled upon a vegan book recipe which reminded her of Bearski and his obnoxious attitude towards vegans. She didn’t buy it though.

At the end of the day almost all the list was checked, and everything bought except for Tony’s gift.

Kaira looked at AlejandroGuevara with sad eyes and asked:

What are we going to do? Nothing comes to my mind and the meeting is in two hours. Alex? Hellooo? Alejandroooo? But Alejandro wasn’t listening. Something caught his attention and made him unresponsive to Kaira calling his name.

She decided to check what made Alejandro like that and there she saw it. Perfection. She couldn’t hide her happiness and her admiration towards Alejandro and his brilliant idea.

Alex this is perfect, perfection, it’s brilliant. I am so excited. But there is a problem. How will we deliver the package? 

Alejandro planned to take the package inside the HQ meanwhile Kaira was meeting everyone at the Villainy Inc Bar.

Everything was finally set, and they headed to the HQ. In the time when Kaira was greeting everyone at the bar Alejandro was bringing the package into TonyCastelli’s office.

After the meeting Kaira headed home. With a cup of tea and Midnight sleeping in on her lap she took the list and checked Tony’s gift too.

• TonyCastelli – goat ✔

What do you think Midnight? Did he already find the gift and more important does he like it?  she giggled and gave Midnight a hug.

The meeting was over and @Kaira had given out her gifts. Preeyah sat comfy in her chair sifting and scanning the recipes through her magazine thinking how perfect this is. She can expand on her baking. 

"Look out everyone, I need some guinea pigs to try my new cakes!" Everyone chuckled. "I mean it, no laughing now." Preeyah placed her magazine down gave Kaira a hug.  "Thank you so much"

Preeyah looked around as everyone was in awe with their gifts. A few people left to get on with their business and Kaira decided it was her time to exit too. After all the goodbyes, TonyCastelli still wondering where his gift was but he is way too polite to mention anything. 

There was a smell coming through the hall and into the room. TonyCastelli looked at Preeyah and sent her with a bodyguard to go investigate. Preeyah held her gun in her hand and behind her back. All she could hear was BANG CLACK CLICK WOLLOP. Preeyah is quite uncomfortable and sends the bodyguard up front. 

"Preeyah, this noise is coming from Tony's office..." Says the bodyguard Eddie. Preeyah pulls a questionable face.. "Are you sure, Eddie?" She whispers back.

Eddie opens the door a creek.. he peeks through and jumps back "OH MY WOOWZERR" He yells. At this point Preeyah is backed up the hall way. "What is it?? Eddie, WHAT IS IT? WHO IS IT? WHAT'S HAPPENED?" Eddie turns around and grabs Preeyah pushing her towards the door. Just go take a look. I have no idea who or why this is in there but I think you should look. 

Preeyah opens the door and peers around it. "OH WOW" she thinks in her head. "Well look at that.." She knew instantly this was Kaira's doing. Hay everywhere.. it stinks.. it's just crazy but crazy fun Like Kaira. Preeyah giggles and puts her gun away. She calls Eddie who is just stunned and holding his nose. They go back to the bar where @TonyCastelli is having a drink. Preeyah sits next to him and takes his whiskey. She drinks it all in a gulp.

"Tony, Kaira has left your present in your office. I think you should go take a look...." Preeyah laughs and chuckles then goes to phone Kaira. 

It was an easy choice to decide which painting to remove from the office walls. Dar had never understood why such a pitoresque oceanside picture hung for display in Vegas. Anything with casino’s, sleazy dance bars or something with rough features and lots of sands was more fitting for America’s Playground. Balancing on a creaking chair, Dar smiled while thinking how one of the Goomba’s would be surprised when he learned his bedsheets from the quarters were missing. The improvised screen was far from perfect, but it had to do for now.

It wasn’t before long that the stunning image of Marlene Dietrich decorated the wall of the otherwise dark office in a far corner of the Villainy Inc. headquarters. It hadn’t taken much time for Dar to skip out of the meeting to go and try out the gift that Kaira had brought him. He was mesmerised by the beauty that seemed so close and so far away at the same time.


BANG CLACK CLICK WOLLOP

The sudden sound effects were less appealing to Dar and broke him out of his spell. But when listening intently, the sounds didn’t return. He was only minutes back in to the story when all of a sudden an unpleasant smell penetrated his nozzle. Rushing up and powering off the projector enveloped the room in complete darkness, while Dar smelled for any smoke - fearful his gift had already broken down. But there…
 

BANG CLACK CLICK WOLLOP

“Mother of! Those damned sounds again!" He murmured. “What the hell is happening in this place?” Dar left the room and followed the sound, lead by an ever-intensifying smell of god knows what. Arriving in the hallway where Tony’s office was located, he noticed some associates staring inside and fervently discussing.

“What is going on in here?” Dar questioned, before stopping in his ways staring in disbelief at what he saw as he rounded the corner.

“Did the boss already see this?” He asked with a slight smile on his face.

Tony was just getting back home to the HQ from a long day at his Delicatessen. He handed the packages of meat to his bodyguard and tells him to go inside to put them in the fridge. There was something that he needed to do instead and that was go have a drink with the rest of the crew. He got inside the bar and ordered a whiskey for himself. Everyone was around laughing and having a good time...

Preeyah had gone up to check an odd smell that had made it's way inside. He was not sure what it could be....

As he waited for his return he watched as Kaira gave out gifts to everyone. He had not received one and he began to feel a bit sad so he continued to drink his whiskey and took out a cigar to puff on. He looked over at Kaira as she gave James a brochure for AA and she looked back and gave a nice wave. He felt a bit betrayed and saddened that Kaira forgot to get him something. She got up and said her goodbyes to everyone as she decided to head home.

Some time later Preeyah came back in and sat down next to him. She gave him a look and he spoke up, "What? What is it Preeyah?"

She quickly replied, "Tony, Kaira has left your present in your office. I think you should go take a look...." 

Preeyah then got up and went over to use the telephone without saying another word to Tony about what she had discovered. The fact that Kaira had not forgotten him was good enough for him though. He downed his drink and began to make his way to his office with a big smile on his face....

When Tony finally got closer to his office he noticed the smell again and a noise to accompany it...BANG CLACK CLICK WOLLOP....What the hell was that he thought to himself. He slowly drew the revolver that Jones had gotten him weeks ago when he hit the rank of Don. He crept closer to the door of his office. BANG CLACK CLICK WOLLOP. 

The sound kept happening and he just could not figure out what it was. He finally flung the door open and pointed the gun at what jumped up on his desk at that very moment making the same BANG CLACK CLICK WOLLOP sound he had been hearing.....

It....was.....a goat! 

Tony ran over to the little guy and it fell over stiff in fright. For a second he thought he had caused it to drop dead, but it slowly got back to its feet and looked at him. He felt so much joy in his heart as he patted the little guy on the head. Even though his office was now a mess and smelt awful, he was so happy to receive his gift from Kaira. He would have to make sure to thank her in some way that would repay this gift.

He would think of something later, right now he knew that he would need to name the little fella.....Fortunato. In english, Lucky. He looked down at this little goat and said, "Fortunato, my new friend."

This was the start of a great friendship.....

@AlejandroGuevara was enjoying a nice stroll in lovely weather as he noticed @Kaira sitting on a bench. He tipped her shoulder and moved to the other side.

She wasn't impressed by his childish joke.

As Alejandro was asked for a pen, he bent, grabbed a pigeon from the ground under the bench and searched the inner pocket of his jacket, pulling out a little pot of ink.

Will that do, dear?

She started talking about a gift for @TheButcher. @AlejandroGuevara smiled and had some great ideas, but @Kaira amazingly classified them as not being appropriate.

You really misinterpret me there, @Kaira! I would never say such things out loud..!

As he said so, he started fantasising abou.. and came back to this world.

Ball gag? I said a tall rack.. for him to hang up his slaughtered animals. Guevara sighed.. In his sigh starting his next sentence.. aah..Whipped cream, he loves whipped cream. Believe me.. he lóves it.

While Alejandro was think of his Butch.. er, Kaire continued about a gift for @Klejnot. Well.. If @TonyCastelli says so, it must be a great present for @Klejnot, I agree.

She seemed to have all those presents worked out, and Guevara asked:
Why did you call for my help then?
As he asked, he reminded himself that no one ever called him and his appearance was purely coincidental. He realized he should talk less and would be better off accompanying Kaira through town, helping her carry some of her stuff.

He couldn't help but mumble
Buy the vegan book, buy the vegan book for @Bearski
but she didn't.

After a while, @AlejandroGuevara saw the perfect gift for @TonyCastelli..
Damn, it was amazing.. The only bad thing was that it had 4 legs.. But still.. It was close to perfection.
What? Yeah.. that could be a problem, but if you will distract everyone from your crew, I may be able to bomb your HQ for experience? I mean.. Bring the gift? Shall I wrap it up?

After dropping the gift for @TonyCastelli, @AlejandroGuevara was back out just in time, 'coincidentally' standing near the entrance as Tony's crew members entered the Villainy Headquarters. He saw @DarGabrielson with a semi-surprised look, as if he heard weird stuff.. Then @Preeyah entered, just before @Kaira. When the latter passed by, @AlejandroGuevara swiftly handed her the keys back. Of course she was accompanied by @TheButcher. Alex was mildly jealous.
As they all entered, Guevara could here @TheButcher's enthousiasm.. He seemed to be really happy being goiven @Jones's book. But it was really hard to hear. Then he heard Butch starting a joke about eggs and Alex yelled from downstairs..

The egg is in my ass it can’t talk!

Being a bit bored there, waiting outside of the headquarters of his friends, he heard @Preeyah shout "I need some guinea pigs to try my new cakes!", and Alex knew what he had to do.. Go back to the goat-store and for an extra present for @Preeyah.

The next morning Kaira received a phone call from one of TonyCastelli's men asking her to immediately go to the Headquarters. Even though the phone call woke her up and she was still half asleep she knew that the phone call meant trouble.

She called AlejandroGuevara and asked him to join her in the visit to the HQ, after all if TonyCastelli decided to give her a harsh punishment she could blame Alex for everything. So she needed him there.

She put a fabulous white coat on and a brand of expensive red high heels, she did her hair and put on make-up with a lot of care thinking that she should at least die pretty if things would lead to her death that day.

She met AlejandroGuevara who was accompanied by TheButcher and decided to go together. Arriving at TonyCastelli's office she was surprised to see her crew leader cuddling with the goat.

Preeyah and Joy were keeping the distance trying to avoid the horrible smell.

Hey Kaira, thank you for the gift. Fortunado became my soulmate overnight. Tony said with a big smile on his face.

Our boss is acting very strange. Preeyah whispered to Kaira.

Kaira sighed with relief and gave a smile to AlejandroGuevara.

Lets go and get a cup of tea and some cookies. I heard Klejnot baked some this morning. She told Alex and Butch. Just when they were about to leave the office Tony called Kaira's name.

Kaira! Where do you think you are going? Tony asked with a grin on his face. Before Kaira could answer he continued. 

I need help. You see, me and Fortunado are going to spend some quality time all day and I need someone to clean the office. 

Kaira's face was revealing panic and shock. She looked down at her beautiful and expensive outfit and then back at TonyCastelli. With tears in the corners of the eyes she said.

But boss, it was Alex's idea. He bought it. He even brought it to your office. If someone has to do the cleaning it should be him! She cried.

Tony looked at Kaira and then at AlejandroGuevara who now looked dumbfounded by Kaira's words. He hit her with his elbow whispering.

What do you think you are doing?

Kaira brushed him off and waited for Tony's reply.

Well..Tony started saying. If it's true then both of you should work together on this. It's only fair that you two share like siblings.

After a few more protests in which Kaira was imploring Tony to spare her fabulous clothes and to rather kill her than make her do the cleaning she finally gave in. The cleaning took more then she expected and at the end her outfit or what was left of it was good to be thrown in the trash.

Frustrated for what happened Kaira felt like Tony should lose a bit too. She then went to JoseArcadioBuendia and dragged him to a safer place. She checked her surroundings to make sure no one heard their conversation then started saying.

TonyCastelli asked me to assign you with a task. He ordered you to build the most expensive place for his goat Fortunado. Do not think about money, there is no limit to the budget. She said with an evil smile on her face.

You can make a proper Macondo for the goat, a little heaven on earth, AlejandroGuevara added to Kaira's whispering to @JoseArcadioBuendia..

Decorate the place with little golden crafted fish.. Maybe make a cinema for it.. But remember, never show a movie with the same characters twice!

Jose Arcadio Buendia understood the order. His eyes moistened a bit, remembering the glory days of Macondo. Now, with the mission to build a goat-mansion for Fortunado, Jose Arcadio Buendia had a new direction in life. The Macondo Restoration will continue, and in it will be the worthy palace for Fortunado. 

Buendia nodded to Kaira and gave his sweetest hunky corn-farmer smile. He's ready for the task ahead. 

"Guevara, my friend." Buendia turned to AlejandroGuevara. "The golden fishes will make a fine addition to Macondo, and to Fortunado's new home. I will draft the plans. I hope the Aurelianos are here...to see our progress."

Jose Arcadio Buendia took off his tank top, revealing his glossy Hollywood-like muscles. He then went to his old pickup, revved it up, and prepared to start a new day of work.

Klejnot had spend most of the day out and about gathering ingredients. Only to return to find a wrapped box in the fridge she was going to put ingredients in. A note that only had a neatly written ~Klejnot on it. She felt bad for not being around for the get together. So she thought and waited for morning to bake. She was a sweets addict, but she knew not everyone liked certain treats. 

By morning she was up at 5AM, putting her apron on she got to work, making Bavarian cremes, cookies, pastries, cakes, pies, and brownies. starting wish what would take the longest. She finally finished closer to noon for the cookies, the HQ smelled of different sweets as she put a kettle to boil. She was covered in patches of flour from her mess but made sure to clean up. Dishes and the floor as well as the work space she used. She wrote a note and placed it on the table before heading to clean herself up. "Enjoy the treats, there is a kettle on the burner for you. ~Klejnot" at the bottom of the page "P.S. Kaira thanks for the cheesecake! ;) " .
