It was past midnight in the living room of Déjà vu headquarters as the family was gathering all together in front of an open fire to warm up to talk about their day. The grumbles coming from their tummies was very noticeable when the family chef Philli-Stein perked up that he will go put some food together for everyone. Flan being a helpful man soon perked up that he would help and brew up some nice hot tea.

Within moments both of them came running back into the room panicing as Philli shouted “The cupboards are bare!” and Flan screaming “We have no tea we have no tea.. we need more tea!”. The family went into shock and began to look at each other in despair for when they realised that with all that went on over the weekend that the groceries were never done.

“Calm down everyone” Amethyst said in a calmly caring matter “We will not starve and this can be resolved”. The family stopped, looked and listened to her “But the shops are now closed Amethyst” Percival said.  Amethyst smiled as she ushered them to sit down near the fire again to come up with a plan. “In times like now we are to pull together and work out exactly what we can do right now” She said as she saw Flan’s eyes sparkle as he grinned “Well we do live near a farm” he said as by then even Deadlock could see right threw it “CARROTS” he said excitedly right away.

The family soon got onto the same page as they made plans for their midnight feast. Philli pointed out if he got the right ingredients he would be willing to make a lovely carrot cake for the family to enjoy.

The plans was soon written out.

• Deadlock and Philli - The Farm in Bronx for ingredients.

• Percival and Ned the trusted CA - Manhattan for Orange Liqueur - (Ned insisted, he’s orange after all.)

• Flan and BigHurt - Staten Island for Tea Bags and Wood from The Incubators beds for a fire.

• Midpoint and Vincenzo - Queens to rummage through their distillery.

With the plans made Amethyst ensured her family were wrapped up before they went out on their missions.

Deadlock slipped under the wire at the top of the wall around the fame, with Philli close behind. Their goal was simple enough. Grab the ingredients for a carrot cake and Get the hell back out.

“eggs, milk, flour, sugar, and of course, carrots. i’ve got the eggs milk and flour, you get the sugar and the carrots.” Philli said, pointing towards Cantillions fields. “meet outside the wall in ten minutes.”

Philli sprinted towards the farms pantry. slipping in the back door, he grabbed a small bag, and began to grab the items he needed. As he did, a door at the other end of the pantry opened, and Cantillion himself walked in, slippers shuffling, and his orange fluffy bathrobe with the green hood shuffling against the ground.

“Wha???” was all Cantillion got out. that was when philli slipped around him and gently choked him unconscious.

“Sorry sir, Can’t have you knowing i was here.” Philli whispered before grabbing his bag and slipping out.

two minutes later, Philli saw deadlock slip over the wall again, and move silently to join him.

“any issues?”

“no, one guard on the carrots, but i got around him. The milk is veery fresh. I had to get the damn bull out of my way first. You?”

“i had to knock out Cantillon. but i got away clean. Let’s go report to Amethyst.”

Percival and Ned leave the Headquarters around 1am to go fetch this new drink everone is speaking of "I think its called orange juice liquor" He said to himself. Little did they know they would have to steal it from Manhattan. They arrived in Manhattan and they began to look around. The infamous Ned sees something and yells out "Hey Percy! I think that's the place we're looking for right over there" He said as he pointed out an old building.

Percival and Ned glance at the building. Two thugs stood outside guarding the door but Percival had other plans. "Ned, you ready? You take the one on the right, I'll take the one on the left. Let's do it" He said. They both moved in at the same time knocking both of the men out. They entered the place and they begin lurking around, trying not to alert anyone. They find some boxes with a couple of bottles on the outside. Ned picks up a bottle and there is no label on it. Percival opens it and takes a quick drink of it and it was fantastic. "Come on Ned, this is what we came to get" He said. They grabbed a box and quickly made their way towards the exit. Just as they got outside, a couple of guys in a car showed up and they drew their guns. "Ned, it's do or die now man, so I hope you're good!" He said as he withdrew his pistol. He fired two shots and killed the first man. He fired again, hitting a second man and dropping him. Ned had done the same and with that, they were now fine for the moment. They needed to quickly get back to Brooklyn.

They were being chased by some guys who wanted revenge for the theft. "Ned, check the bottles, make sure they're okay" Ned checked the bottles, a couple of the bottles were broken. "Throw the broken bottles at the windshield of their car Ned!" He said. About a dozen bottles later, the car chasing them had stopped and they were now entering Brooklyn again. "Phew.. Close call there. Well, we're back at home sweet home heh. Let's get back to the HQ quickly." He said.

They drove back to the Deja Vu headquarters where the others were. "Hey friends. We have the goods!"

Flan could not think clearly, without tea he was basically useless. Other people had hardcore vices, Flans was rather ridiculous when he thought about it.

‘Don’t worry’ Said BigHurt noticing the start of withdrawal symptoms in Flan, a hissy fit would not be far away. ‘We are almost at the Incubators and they always have more tea than they can use.’

‘That will be the easy part of the plan, getting fire wood will be more difficult.’ Flan wondered how they were going to grab the oak right off Godfather Kyubey’s bed.

The two entered the Incubators Headquarters where they had been many times before. Incubator members nodded to them as they walked in, they were welcome here, just perhaps not if their intentions were known.

They headed for the kitchen, Sable_Tights looked up as they walked in and asked what they needed. ‘I need my fix man’ Flan exclaimed ‘You have to help a brother out.’

Sable reached into the cupboard and produced the good stuff, top quality, grade A, Colombian, fresh from the fields....... Finest tea you’ll ever taste.

Flan handed over some cash and more of his dignity in sniffing the goods.

‘Ok, you got your fix now lets go get this oak.’ BigHurt said, business like.

As they walked back to the exit of the HQ they quietly peeled off and snuck up the stairs to the Incubators private rooms.

They walked into the lavish bedroom of Godfather Kyubey, the great man himself snoring away in his famous grand oak bed.

‘Ok lets take two of the bedposts, they are so big it should surely be enough.’ BigHurt whispered.

Together they lifted the Godfather out of bed and slowly and carefully took him outside the room and placed him in the hall, amazingly he did not wake. Lying on the floor he curled up and mumbled something about mice. Flan could not help but be reminded of the feline nature of the head of Staten Island.

They moved back into the bedroom and closed the door. Bighurt pulled a hacksaw from what appeared to be nowhere and eventually they had the two large bedposts ready to go.

Flan opened the window, they had calculated this, if they slid them across the slanted roof they should fall and tumble into their awaiting truck below.

It worked to perfection as both pieces fell into the back of the truck.

‘’Lets get out of here’’ Said Flan

They snuck out of the bedroom, past the now purring Godfather, down the stairs and into the waiting truck.

It was time to go home and join the rest of the family. The thoughts ‘heat’ and ‘cake’ being foremost in their minds.

Armed with nothing more than a crazy idea and a yearning for a bit of Philli's famous Carrot cake both MidpoinT and Vincenzo made their way across town in the direction of Queens....

"So remind me again Mid what the hell are we doing wandering across town at stupid o'clock at night?" Vincenzo remarked, "To be honest Vince i have no bloody idea, something to do with a couple of crates of Broly's finest" he replied with a cheeky grin. Having made their way into Queens they come across a large warehouse type building the sign outside simply reading, Broly's Imports Ltd.

Having searched the perimeter of the building they find a small window ajar, peeking in to see if all was clear they both carefully climbed through and into the main warehouse, "Jesus christ you seen all these boxes we're going to be here all night" sighed MidpoinT as he gazed upon row after row of boxes and pallets, "So what do you reckon you start one end i start the other?" asked MidpoinT.

Vincenzo smiled "no no no we come for some of Broly's finest right?" looking over to MidpoinT as he said it "Well then its not likely to be out here now is it, nope its going to be in his....." before he could finish his sentence MidpoinT cut him off and finished it for him "Of course in his office", they made their way into the office and over to the huge old Yale safe in the corner, looking the safe up and down Vincenzo turns to MidpoinT with a puzzled look on his face and said "Hey Mid I hope you can crack a Yale safe because i have no idea", breaking out in laughter MidpoinT says"Seriously you not opened a Yale before?, piece of cake come here i'll show you, mmm talking of cake!".

134....89.....121 Turning the handle they hear the bolt slide across the safe was open! "Nice one Mid lets see what we got in here then", opening the door to the safe they found three main compartments up top were a few stacks of $100 bills a gold watch and a fairly expensive looking pair of Diamond Cuflinks, the middle compartment an assortment of various firearms and other none to pleasant items of weaponry but on the bottom sat what they were looking for a dozen bottles of Broly's finest, bagging them all up as quickly as they could Vincenzo then walked over to the desk opened a draw and pulled out a pen and piece of paper on it he wrote "Emergency buddy IOU, Vincenzo" then proceeded to put the note inside the safe before closing it back up, "Lets get the fuck outta here!

Making their way back to Deja Vu they handed over the Liquor to Godmother Amethyst who greeted them with a smile and said "Nice one lads now go get yourselves warmed up by the fire".

Finally the members of the family were back home safe and well to find Amethyst wrapped up in blankets with Sarai due to the cold, the fire has burnt out. BigHurt rushed to their aid with wood for the fireplace to get a fire relit as Flan ran into the kitchen to make much needed cups of tea for all where Mayday was already there boiling up the kettle for it.

The family then gathered around the fire once again as they awaited Philli to do his magic with baking a Carrot Cake for them. Pretty soon their tummies began to rumble once more. The smell was absolutely divine.

Sometime later the Carrot Cake was ready and slices were cut for all to enjoy. Was absolutely gorgeous. No cake has ever tasted so lovely.

Amethyst stood up and said “Well guys we knew it was coming and now it is the time for it to happen. Philli-Stein you have been with me from the word go. You have stood by Brooklyn and myself through good and the bad times. You have always listened and followed what needed to be done.

As we have discussed as a family for a while now that you would be the next one to fly the nest to begin you own division here in Brooklyn. Congratulations” Amethyst then handed over a set of keys with an address. “I would also like to congratulate Vincenzo, Percival and Sarai who will be going along with you in this adventure by your side” She continued to say with a smile.  

Amethyst nodded to Midpoint to hand out the drinks to celebrate the occasion as the members of TepidDelucci’s family begun to arrive for the celebrations.

“It is now time to celebrate by toasting to Philli-Stein on becoming our new auth here in Brooklyn and to eat more cake!’”.

With that Amethyst sent Ned of to the streets to post the news
