'Another average day, another annoying task to complete.' December thought to himself as he entered the local Supermarket called 'Mart Mart'. The whole reason why he had gone out in the first place was because his dear wife wanted to do something special for supper, but they didn't have any supplies in their house. So here he was, at a very public place, with people who think of him as a god, and idolize him, all because he couldn't resist his partner's puppy dog eyes.

After the 50th selfie he finally got some peace to do his shopping, however all of the social media attention caught the eye of a certain private detective, and their nuisance pyromaniac acquaintance.

"Oh-ho-hoooo~! Oh June buddy, look what I found!"

"Uhg... What is it Flare? I was trying to nap." A came a tired response from the private investigator.

"Looks like our dear friend December is out in public." Flare says, sarcasm dripping off of the word friend. They shove their phone in their constantly sleep deprived friends face. June squints his eyes due to the brightness from the screen, but sure enough Flare was right. He saw all the posts and comments that people had made about December being in a specific market.

"Huh... that's surprising." June responds in a bored tone, taking a sip of day-old coffee.

"Wanna go... say 'Hello'?" Flare suggests, a mischievous grin on their face, implying they had more on their mind than a simple greeting. But June, wanting a break from his insanities constant nagging, and as an excuse to get more coffee agreed to go.

The odd ball duo make their way down into the downtown area, June had to keep Flare on schedule instead of starting a fire on every other building. After a couple detours, 6 plus cups of coffee and only one warehouse fire, they made it to the Mart Mart store where December had been spotted.

"Ok let's go in and cause a scene!" Flare said in a cocky tone, creating a flame in her fist.

"Uh no, better idea... Nala clone, JUST ONE!" June said, turning to his insanity that manifests. It was a strange, monstrous looking head manifestation, it had bright pink eyes, darker teal toned horns, and glowing eyes in the center of the two severed hands.

"Awww boo, you take the fun out of things... Freya and I just want to... reunite with our old... acquaintance." Flare said, their insanity manifesting as well. Freya was a large hell-ish fireball, no eyes, but a large mouth.

"Yeah~ crimson flames scorching high! I wanna see everything crash and burn!" Freya chants out bouncing around in glee.

"Flare, don't listen to it, just let me spy on him and maybe we can confront him." June said.

"I'm sorry... 'Maybe'?" Flare emphasized sounding annoyed.

"Uhg, Flare... remember we promised that you could confront December when the time is right, meaning intel gathering, planning, and patience. Reveal yourself now and you'll blow your perfect revenge." June said, sending the physical copy of himself into the store to look for and tail December.

"That's not fun... where's the destruction? Where's the fireworks?" Freya complained.

"Silence Freya, June is right... We need this to be perfect. Have you found him yet?" Flare asks, swiping away their insanity.

"Uuuuuhhhhhhh..." June said, taking a large sip of his 7th coffee cup. "Yes actually... what the heck...?"

"What? What is it? Is he suffering?! Tell meeeeeeee!" Flare said in growing anticipation and impatience.

"H-he's... threatening... talking... uhm he's doing something with a group of staff." June said, confused.

"Well that's lame, get your duplicate closer June." Flare said in annoyance and boredom.

"Yeah yeah one second..." June said with a sleepy yawn. "Uh... ok I can hear what they're saying uh."

"Well what's going on?" Flare asked, highly impatient and disappointed.

"He... he just bought the entire store."

"Huh?" Flare responded, their brain just shut down with that news.

June deactivates his clone, as December comes out to the front of the building shaking the hand who was presumably the manager. June and Flare watch on with a blank stare as December walks away from his newly acquired asset with his many many shopping bags.

"Well... I was not expecting that..." June admitted, Nala nodding slowly, for once in her existence, she was silent. Freya reappeared next to Flare and whispered something in their ear. Flare smirks a gremlin like smirk, igniting their fists, chuckling darkly. Next minute June is standing next to a proud and satisfied Flare. They had set the Mart Mart that December had just bought on fire.

"Worth the trip." Flare responded.
