As the months passed by, Christmas was approaching and it would be the first Christmas, Kaori was spending with the Pickles family, Kaori wanted to make it extra special, so she first went out shopping for gifts to get presents and she went with Lil, Kimi and Angelica (Kaori and Angelica made up after the infamous Ask Angelica spat) in order to get ideas for all of them.

"What would they like" said Kaori

"We can buy some shoes, I know they all like shoes" said Angelica

"No, you like shoes Angelica, I was thinking of more electronic like a console or TV" said Kimi

"Unfortunately we don't have that kind of money to buy something like that" said Lil

"Well Dil likes anything to do with aliens, Tommy loves film making, what about Stu and Didi, what sort of things do they like" said Kaori

"Well knowing Stu, he is like the ultimate man child and will like any old school style toys or parts for his inventions, with Didi, she pretty much appeciates anything you get her" said Angelica

"I know a place to help you get a present for Dil" said Lil

"Where" said Kaori

"I'll take you there" said Lil as she wheeled Kaori to a shop that had a lot of collectibles as well as loud noises and bright colours, as they entered.

They went to an aisle where there were many alien themed merchandise where Kaori saw something

"What's that, Dil would love that" said Kaori pointed at the Helemet

"That's a Master Chief helmet from the video game Halo, (Lil takes it off the shelf), Kaori this is expensive, it's 150" said Lil

"I can afford it, I have 500 in the Bank" said Kaori

"How" said Lil

"Saving money for Christmas presents and doing part time jobs to earn some cash" said Kaori

"Ahhh ok, lets go buy Dils present then" said Lil as they bought the helmet.

After being wheeled out by Lil, Kaori was approached by Kimi

"I know a good place to buy Tommy a present" said Kimi

"Where" said both Kaori and Lil

"I'll show you" said Kimi as she wheeled Kaori to an electronics store where they sold all kinds of devices

They entered store and after browsing through various aisles, Kaori picked up a DVD titles 'Good ideas for movie makers'

"I'm sure he will love this" said Kaori

After they bought it and left the store, Kaori saw Angelica with a boxed Vintage GI Joe and a Lipschitz book

"This should be the presents for Uncle Stu and Aunt Didi from you Kaori" said Angelica

"Oh wow thanks Angelica, your surprisingly nice today" said Kaori

"It's Christmas time, I can be nice sometimes you know especially to family" said Angelica

"That's really sweet of you Angelica" said Kaori

The Girls countinued shopping throughout the day preparing for Christmas

Christmas Day

Kaori was the first to wake up on Christmas Day and yelled "ITS CHRISTMAS"

Dil walked into her room rubbing his eyes and said "It's 5:35 in the morning Kaori"

"But it's still Christmas, wake everyone up" said Kaori

Dil and Kaori woke Tommy, Stu and Didi up and they went downstairs to open presents

Tommy recieved a new filming software as well as a new camera and smartphone from Stu and Didi

Dil recieved some new programming software and many alien themed stuff such as video games and a alien based invention from Stu

Kaori was surprised that everyone had got her a present in the family, Dil was the first to give her a present.

"This is for you, merry Christmas" said Dil handing Kaori her present

Kaori opened the wrapping to reveal a Stradivarius Violin, one of the rarest violins in the world, it shocked Kaori completely

"Dil...thank you so much...how could you afford one of these" said Kaori

"Well I sold the patent to one of my inventions and profited heavily out of it, so the first thing I bought was your Christmas present to make it extra special" said Dil

"I love it Dil, thank you" said Kaori as she hugged Dil

The next present was from Tommy and Kaori unwrapped it quickly to reveal a 12 box selection of Caneles which were Kaoris favourite snack

"Thanks Tommy, how did you know they were my favourite" said Kaori

"Dil told me" said Tommy

"Thanks for the gift" said Kaori hugging Tommy

Next was Didis present to her which Kaori opened to reveal a small Smart TV for her room so that Dil and Kaori don't have to fight over the TV all of the time

Afterwards Kaori made the 4 open the presents that she had got them and she filmed their reactions one by one, Stu and Dil fanboyed over their presents while Didi and Tommy commented on how thoughtful Kaori was.

The biggest and best present for Kaori was saved for last and it was a joint effort from Stu, Dil and Lou, now you might be thinking what can be a better present than a Stradivarius Violin?

Kaori was given a 3 second countdown and then she opened her present to reveal a pair of robot stilts that attach to the back of the legs to allow people that are unable to walk to walk again, it was an invention from Stu that Dil and Grandpa Lou helped along the way to ensure it had no bugs and faults with it.

Kaori was lost for words, she tried the stilts and she was able to walk again (with some difficulty), she hugged all of them and was extremely grateful for what the Pickles family had done in terms of helping her throughout the year.

Later in the day, Grandpa Lou along with Lulu, Chaz, Kira, Chuckie, Kimi, Betty, Howard, Phil, Lil, Drew, Charlotte and Angelica all came round the Pickles residence to celebrate Christmas dinner where lots of party games were played and lots of laughter and joy were heard throughout the day as everyone was feeling the true spirt of Christmas.

During the dinner everyone saw Kaori walking and everyone was so proud of her, the long way she had come since that February day of the surgery and then the day in May where she was adopted by the Pickles family and still her show with Dil and the rest of the crew had been a massive success on public access and in January, they had a chance to launch a TV Pilot for national television which was a huge step up from Public Access

However for now Kaori as well as everyone around her was having a merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to all my readers
