Molly crouched behind the ice cream van opposite the community hall, studying the chaos through binoculars borrowed from a garden gnome. Inside, thirty children fueled by frosting were demolishing a piñata while exhausted parents guarded mountains of wrapped presents near the stage. Bill arrived disguised as Kevin the Incredible, wearing a lopsided cape, balloon animals tied to his belt, and glitter inexplicably covering his eyebrows. He carried an enormous empty sack decorated with reindeer, although Christmas remained six months away and subtlety had apparently retired. Molly whispered, "Two guards, three clowns, one bouncy castle blocking the exit." Bill nodded solemnly and adjusted his wand, which was actually a stolen spatula painted silver for theatrical emergencies. His plan involved entering through the kitchen, distracting everyone with balloon giraffes, then smuggling presents out inside hollow cake boxes. Molly preferred tunneling beneath the bouncy castle, but local regulations, common sense, and one extremely suspicious janitor complicated that option. They compromised by purchasing tickets from a seven year old scalper who accepted payment in marbles, cookies, and questionable stock tips. Bill muttered, "Grab presents, vanish before cake, blame magician, celebrate quietly tonight." Together they crawled toward destiny, dignity abandoned somewhere behind the parked van.
