After analyzing the layout of the cabin and taking into the sccount all their windows of opportunities, the trio devised a cunning plan. After an eternity of squabbling and deciding who would carry out which task, they sat into a circle and summarized their strategy.

"So here's what we'll do" Said Yachiru.

When Gigi comes into the cabin , you two will distract him. Then, I'll* crawl under the cart that brings the snacks! Then, Gigi will take the cart back to the kitchen. And I'll borrow all the candy! Then, I'll sneak back out and find my way beck to the backity back! Sound good?"

Nel nodded enthusiastically but Lilinette rolled her eyes.

"There's just one problem with your plan, genius"

Yachiru scowled. She didn't like people contradicting her mastermind schemes.

"How do you plan to go into he kitchen, find the stash of candy, take it, and sneak back out again? WITHOUT ANYBODY NOTICING?"

"Hmmm" Pondered Yachiru, thoughtfully. She placed her index finger daintily on her chin.

"That's a good question"

Suddenly her face brightened up like a sunny day after a rainstorm.

"I'll be super duper extra sneaky!"

"Yeah, that's a sure guarantee!" Responded the pre-pubescent arrancar snarkily.

"If you don't like my plan, think one up yourself!" Huffed Yachiru. With that she plonked herself down on the floorboards and glared accusingly at her senior inmate who returned the ecpression with mirror-precision.

"Wait! Nel knows what to do!" Gasped Nel, as she had a brainwave.

The green haired girl and the pinkette cocked their heads in her direction, expectantly.

" Nel went on this train before when Nel was an espada. Master Barragan was holding a conference in it because it was his turn! And Nel distinctly remembers that it was on Master Ulquiorra's birthday. So the whole staff came out and sang him a Birthday song! It was so fun!*"

Lilinette guffawed at the idea of Ulquiorra in a birthday hat surrounded by bright colorful streamers. She was so overwhelmed by her imagination that she fell over and required a full minute in order to regain her composure.

When she was finally able to sit upright without her stomach muscles yanking her forwards with mirth, she looked at Nel.

"So your saying that we tell Ggio that somebody in the main car is having a birthday?"

"That's exactly what Nel's suggesting!"

"I thought that was pretty obvious! You're not very smart are you?" Said Yachiru with an air of condescension.

"HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO HAVE YOUR HAIR RIPPED OFF YOUR HEAD ONE STRAND AT A TIME?" Snapped Lilinette.

So after Yachiru and Lilinette solved this question together by getting into a rather violent scuffle, (of which Yachiru was the undoubted victor) The trio got back to buisness.

"Who's birthday should we say it is anyways?" Asked Lilinette wearily.

"We shouldn't say it's one of the arrancar's. Because Ggio might already know their birthdays" Reasoned Nel.

"Byakki's birthday!" Replied Yachiru!

" He's a soul reaper like me! So Gi-gi won't know! Also, it's ok if he says it isn't his birthday; no one ever listens to him anyways!"

"Alright. We'll go with this Byakki fellow" Agreed Lilinette.

"But I still don't see how you're gonna sneak all the way back to the end of the train car without anybody noticing even if you manage to find the candy. And even if you do, how are you going to get back inside it? Ggio will have locked the door"

"That's where you two come in!"

"When I was on my way here, I noticed that there's openings on the train between the cars. Like empty doors! When I find one, I'll just jump off the train and run to the back of the caboose. Then, Nel will be keeping an eye out for me. by looking out the balcony platform. connected to the restroom. When she sees me, she'll call you and the two of you can help pull me up! Got it?"

"Yep!" Said Nel.

"Sure" Said Lilinette.

*After much arguing and countless rounds of rock paper scissors (which mostly ended in redos and sccusations of cheating) it was decided that Yachiru would be the one to sneak onto the cart, as Nel didn't know what candy looked like and Lilinette's weight was too heavy for Ggio to be unable to notice.

*Like I said, I had to make some details slightly crackish to play into the plot. Don't say I didn't warn ya.
