Caleb looked back to his student. "...Let us leave then." Caleb's skin retained the jolly red color to it.

Moé nodded, and opened a portal.
"Let's go to the mall, since it'll cost less."
She looked back at Kokopelli and Ann.
"I'll force you to make the food if you guys don't scoot!"
They both left, and Moé dragged Caleb into the portal.
Jormungandr lifted that coil of his body to Point B, and Moé closed the portal after they arrived.
"Ooh, an earth mall! I'm here mainly to get gifts for people besides the trio I interact with the most."
She saw the window, and knew what she had to get.
"Oh, there. This is the game shop. Mother."
She went inside, and came out with a video game: Guilty Gear XX Accent Core, Wii version.
"I know Dad would never buy her it, he hates video games, and she's wanted it for about a year now."

Caleb followed her, people around him gave second glances. "Is there anything you would want from here?" He asked her, looking down at his student.

Moé looked at him, dumbfounded, her shoulders slack.
"O-Oh no. Why would I want anything?"

William thanked the skeleton, and opened up the door. Almost immediately, he took off his helmet. He had to get used to having his armor off sometime, and he was much happier to do it in privacy. As he looked around his new home, he saw that he had a queen-size bed, an oak desk, a bathroom, and a window that offered a view out to western side of the grounds.

Mocha, meanwhile, had a stretcher on which she was grafting limbs of some poor person, and a small table which held her bread and sodas.

Caleb noted, remembering vaguely what happened last time, he needed to get her a gift, but what? "I will be off, there is something I need to complete." He left the store, his mind went blank, what would he buy her? He looked around, and ended up sitting down on a bench, thinking deeply about what to buy, and more importantly, what she would like the most.

Moé continued shopping, and finally went home.
"I guess Caleb will ask for a portal, and I'll hear him, or will walk home..."
She still felt some guilt, though, and began to wrap the presents.

When Caleb came back to attention, he looked up, to see several children looking at him oddly. Standing up, a small sigh left his body. A small idea then entered his mind. He began to walk, getting many second looks as he entered an antique shop. Heading for the front desk, he looked around trying to think of what she might find to be, interesting. "...Do you have anything with gears, cogs, and the like?" He asked the brown haired, crystal blue-grey eyed man behind the desk.
"O-over there." The man pointed to the right. Caleb turned and came to one thing that caught his eye.
Caleb stared back at the beautiful grandfather clock, that had a cut away, showing its copper innards. "May I buy this clock?"
"That is it then?" The man asked.
"Yes." Caleb said.
That will be....1025 dollars." The man replied.
Caleb took out a his silver dragon that depicted itself eating its tail. In his other hand, he slipped in a small piece of lead. Closing it, he pressed the arms on the dragon in. A hiss noise came and died out slowly. He reopened it and took out a small piece of gold. He handed it to the man. He walked back to the clock. Now, How am I going to bring this back?

Kokopelli appeared right on time.
He tilted his head, and gestured why he needed it transported; he would transport it either way, but, as usual, he was curious.

"It is a Christmas gift for my student." Caleb replied.
The man behind the table gave an odd look at both Caleb and Kokopelli.

Kokopelli paused.
'Doesn't Moé get spoiled by her parents?', he gestured. He opened a portal, and pulled valentine out.
He asked her via gesture if she had gotten Moé anything.
"Oh, nah, Moé is a victim of the 'everyone spoils her' thing. She's never recieved a present. This year, I remembered, and I got her an exclusive, autographed copy of a book. Reynard has forgotten to get her anything, but I'll make sure to remind him, and my family..."
She left, and Kokopelli felt guilty, opening a portal.
Kokopelli gestured that they could keep it at his house until tomorrow, so Moé wouldn't see it, and asked for Caleb's agreement. He also would go with Ann to get Moé something too.

The man behind the counter dropped his cup of coffee as he watched what was happening.
"Yes, that would be best." Caleb replied. "After, could you bring myself to my homestead?"

Kokopelli nodded, and putting a portal beneath all three of them [him, Caleb, and the clock], somehow Kokopelli found an instantaneous way to portal, and all three landed safely in one of Kokopelli's spare rooms on the second floor.
He opened another instant-portal, and lightly pushing Caleb inside, he closed the portals when he was inside.

The man held onto the gold piece, amazed, shocked, and confused all at once.
Caleb, now inside of his home, walked to the parlor. Starting the fireplace with a wooden match. and seating himself into a leather chair, watching the fire dance.
