AN: This song is hauntingly beautiful and should be heard.

After painstakingly running back to Sam's store to buy a replacement carton of eggs, the trio made it back to the kitchen to complete the tart. Where the rest of their group was waiting.

"Hey, you're finally back! Took you guys long enough." Ace says.

"Yeah, had a little trouble on the way back." Ren replies while putting the grocery bags on the counter.

"In that case, let's get this tart started!" Trey says next and they got to work on the actual tart preparation. "Okay, now we just sprinkle on some powdered sugar, and glazed chestnuts..." The third year says as they put on the finishing touches.

"Finished!" Ace and Grim both cheer as they're done.

"Fin...ished..." Deuce himself says, a little more dower.

"Seriously, did something happen while you were shopping?" Ace asks Ren.

"Chick shock..." The ravenette thought, recalling what happened with the eggs.

"For sixteen years, I was so sure..." The spade boy mutters

"Just leave Breaker be for now." The bespectacled boy decides to say.

"Alright... Wait, Breaker?" The auburn haired says then asks.

"Oh, you got your codename, congratulations Deuce." Morgana says.

"I got mine too! I'm Magi!" Grim then exclaims.

"I'll ask later... Anyways, I'm pretty beat. Making tarts sure takes it out of you." The heart boy groans.

"Hey fam! You look wrecked. Are the tarts done? Ooh, those look so cute! Let me snap a quick pic for Magicam!" Cater says as he comes into the kitchen and takes a photo with his phone.

"Ah! Turn down the flash next time!" Morgana groans, rubbing his eyes.

"Oh, now you decide to show up?" Ace asks annoyed. Yeah, that's a good point.

"I just came to see my underclassmen hard at work." The older boy claims.

"It's tough work if you're not used to it. But there's no better cure for the ails of fatigue than something sweet! Here, help yourself to some tart." Trey says.

"Yay!" Ace, Grim and Cater all cheer

"Yay!" Ace, Grim and Cater all cheer.

"Pretty funny how you managed to show right when it was ready to eat, Cater." Ace comments.

"Heh, heh. Someone's gotta be the official taster!" The orange haired boy replies.

"Mmmm... That smells so good... Glossy chestnuts on top, fluffy cream below... I can't wait another second, I'm going in!" Grim describes and takes a bite. Ren playfully rolls his eyes as he and the others take a bite themselves.
