"Sunset Shimmer a lady of mystery who just appeared on the social circles out of nowhere, has lots of money and resources. Little known of her past but she is well educated and knows how to be formal and the conventions of the upper classes. From the tidbits of her past, seems she's from a blue blood aristocrat family, possibly has ties with one of the royal families of Europe. She might be from one of the impoverished patricians of land rich, bankrupt aristocracy without a penny to their name, a fallen princess. Seems to have been kicked out of the family by her mother, and she's been traveling around the world picking up things here and there. She is a skilled magician, putting on shows that wow crowds on her travels. I heard of her before and I must say her just making these crates appear out of nowhere, the stories about her skills doesn't do her justices," Sedgewick "Wick" Sable informs the workers of Lackadaisy, as he tries the open baby mice wine.

"You seem to know a lot about her," Mitzi May said.

Her employees are going over both the treasure chest and the crates. Ivy is looking over the jewels with Dorian laying out all the valuables on a table, putting them in piles. Viktor is looking over the crates of foreign alcohol with Rocky and Freckle, according to Victor the labels on the bottles are from European countries. Once the valuables are fenced, along with resupplying the bar's depleted stocks, will keep the business going for a couple weeks. 

"Douglas construction company was hired to fix up the old Raccoon art museum by the waterfront. He told me about how the new owner Sunset Shimmer, is having his workers rebuild it into a home and adding some odd designs to it. In the lobby the marble statue of a goddess that was left behind, has been sold off and replaced with that of a horse statue of all things. That woman in the pink dress suit Briggs, handled all the paperwork and getting all the right permits with the city. She even had his workers install a waterwheel at the small dock at the back to help provide power to the building, among other things. Also how one of the women with Briggs is quite the looker. Leone a blonde who I have seen and well, she's even bigger than Sunset, and I don't mean just in her figure but she's a big woman. She and another woman… Aisha Clanclan, I think, actually lifted a car and flip it over. The owner of said car was giving the third woman Sienna Khan a hard time, so her friends taught him a lesson. Sunset has deep pockets and I have been hearing about her in my social circles since she made it known she's moving here. And this baby mice wine isn't half bad," Sable said taking another drink.

"I saw that!" Rocky spoke up. "I was walking by when I saw two big women lifted a car between them and flipped it over. And wow those women are big, even bigger than Viktor here. And boy are they well built, those two are muscular versions of their boss Sunset, but even bigger and taller than her. And wow, I never seen a woman like Sunset before." 

"Like you have a chance with her," Ivy huffed not needing to be reminded of how stack Sunset is, or how stunning the rest of her girls are.

"Trust me, she's out of your class not to mention there are way better men who be after her. Both better looking and have the wealth to match hers," Dorian said. 

"There has to be over a thousand or more worth of stuff in here," Ivy said looking over a pearl necklace then grim at the gold tooth. "I don't want to know where all these gold and silver teeth came from."

"Either grave robbing or the hard way," Dorian said. "The jewels can be sold to jewelers and the rest can be smelted down." 

"These liquors aren't cheap," Viktor said looking over the wine. Finding one of the crates having the wine wrapped in very soft cloth and the create full of wool to keep the bottles safe.

"Eeewww there's more bottles with dead animals in them," Freckle said looking into a crate with more baby mouse wine in them.

"Better save those for the more adventurous drinkers," Mitzi said and turns to Viktor who has unwrapped one of the very protected wine bottles. "What kind of wine is it?"

"Domaine Leroy Musigny Grand Cru," Viktor said reading the label causing Sable to choke on his drink.

"What's the matter?" Mitzi asked.

"That's the most expensive wine in the world that's available on the open market," Sable said shocking everyone in the bar. "I only gotten to taste it once and that was at a wedding. Just one bottle cost around 40,000." (1)

Everyone was stun hearing the price and Viktor suddenly became very aware of the fortune he's holding in his hands. 

"How many bottles," Freckle ask.

"There's 8 bottles in here," Viktor said. 

"So that's 320,000 worth of wine?" Ivy said adding up the numbers. 

"Viktor, carefully put the bottle back… after you wrap it up. And put it into the vault for safekeeping," Mitzi said feeling faint hearing the fortune that was just handed to her. "They be for the big rollers."

"Yes," Viktor said being very careful with the bottle as he puts it back as it was.

"So what you think she wants for all of this?" Mitzi ask Sable.

"Something big, you don't just give over a quarter of a million away and don't want anything in return," Sable stated making everyone nervous about what Sunset wants in return.

Shimmer Manor -

The old art museum that belonged to the Raccoon family before they lost their fortune and had to sell off the art to pay off their debts. Now converted into a manor for its new owner Sunset Shimmer, who has made many changes to the old museum and even added electric lights and plumbing to the old building. Adding an underground garage in what use to be the basement, with a ramp leading up the street, with a drainage system for when it rains that lets out into the river that's in the back of the building. And a waterwheel that provides independent power to the building in the back at the newly built dock. That has all the building permits to allow the construction. (2)

Walking into her new home after so many years of wandering the Earth, Sunset eyes laid on the horse statue in the lobby that she had her girls personal transport to the city to make sure nothing happens to it. She walks up to the statue and puts her hand on the pedestal that makes up the base of the statue. Solid but in a few more months, it won't be.

  "Is everyone here?" Sunset ask as all of her girls have gathered together. 

"Yes the whole pride is here," Merle said who is standing with the twins Naria & Eriya.

Sunset looks around the lobby seeing her pride have all gathered together. 

Cheshire and her daughter Kitty.

Blair

Felicia Hardy and Tigra

Selina Kyle and Cheetah

Katt

Felicia

Blake Belladonna

Cheethara, Pumyra and Wilykit

"Good, we're all here," Sunset said counting the number of her pride. 

With Cleo, Calico "Callie" Briggs, Tigress, Catra, Blackfire, Starfire, Leone, Aisha Clanclan, Sienna Khan, Kitty and Katty Katswell. There are 24 members of her pride who she has gathered to her side during her travels and formed a bond with. Like how things work back where she came from but a herd and that the culture here has changed from when prides were even a thing. Not to mention the gender ratio is more 50/50 than it was back home. 

"We got several months to get ready," Sunset said.

"But really here of all places?" Pumyra asks.

"The other places where there is a weak point is either in the middle of nowhere, in places that would be very difficult for us for a number of reasons from how they would treat us to having people coming after us, because of how they view magic being work of the devil. Plus thanks to the government banning alcohol there is a thriving smuggling rings that can be used to transport shipments with them not asking questions. And using the local gangs will keep the heat off of us, the police are more interested in the rum runners then wondering why strange shipments of occult artifacts are being transported to the home of a known stage magician," Sunset said.

"Yes the cover of a very rich woman who is tried of the extravagance lifestyle, playing around the occult out of boredom," Blair spoke up.

"As if none of you didn't believe me that I could really do magic, at first," Sunset said.

"We didn't," Cheshire said standing with her daughter. 

"And you taught us to use magic as well," Kitty said as she turns invisible. 

"Which reminds me, make sure you don't go around showing off too much. No need to draw too much attention. I been planning this for years and I don't want it to be all for nothing because of one of you playing around too much," Sunset said causing everyone to stare at the mother and daughter.

"How was I suppose to know that the people of that place would react like that," Kitty said reappearing.

"You're just lucky that the British soldiers stop the mob in India," Tigra said. 

"Which during the crack down that village's grain stores caught on fire and burn down most of the village," Kitty Katswell said eyeing Cheshire.

"What? They tried to kill my Kitty just because she showed off her magic skills for those kids," Cheshire said.

"Just don't make a scene this time," Sunset said.

Author's Notes -

1 - Domaine Leroy Musigny Grand Cru is the most expensive wine, and frankly, by a landslide. It's the only wine with an average retail price above $40,000 and one of two wines with peak retail prices over $100,000. (Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée-Conti Grand Cru is the other one.)

So, what makes this Pinot Noir special? It checks every box that a wine investor could dream of. Legendary terroir? Check. Miniscule supply? Check. Universal praise, including multiple perfect scores from wine critics? Check and check.

Domaine Leroy Musigny Grand Cru has treated wine collectors well. According to Liv-ex, every vintage since 2000 has appreciated between 361.8% and 2,848.5% over the last five years.

2 - The police station from Resident Evil 2 Remake, because I like the design.
