Chapter 363 Christmas of Light
I don't own Bleach or any of the powers and gear used in this story.
The day was snowing and the Team was putting up Christmas decorations since it's Christmas eve.
Yui was setting up the tree and she looks at Hank who was looking outside a window.
"You know it's going to be a great christmas today, all of our friends are coming to see us."Yui said.
"Yeah."He said.
They then saw Recorder appear and to they're surprise he has a blonde little girl that has red eyes wearing red dress in his arms.
"Recorder where did you get that vampire child?"Yui said.
"We have found her in a basement and decided to take her as our own."Recorder said surprising them.
She smiles and hugs Recorder."Daddy."
"What's her name?"Hank asked.
"Flandre Scarlet."He said.
Flashback
Flandre was inside a basement of her family mansion, she couldn't leave because she couldn't control her powers.
She was just playing with a bear she had before Recorder appears behind her.
She looks at him surprised."Who are you mister?"
"Recorder."He said."Are you alone child?"
She nodded."I'm not allowed to go out, but I have so many toys."
He stares at her."Would you like a new family?"
She got surprised and he offers her a hand.
She takes it and they went back to his Team's world.
Flashback ends
"I see."Yui got surprised.
Flandre then looks around and then smiles seeing Ami walking by."She's a vampire like me!"
Ami got surprised and said:"Well half vampire."
"Good enough."Flandre jumps down and goes towards Ami."Let's play!"
Krul came and said:"Well we have a new vampire in the house."
Draco came and said:"Yes, but I heard it all, maybe Flandre deserves some vampire friends."
Sebastian came and said:"Sir the guests have arrived."
Draco goes to the door and opens it to reveal the Isekai group.
"Hey Draco."Kazuma high fives him with many doing the same while Yuri, Nabe and Megumin kissed his cheeks.
"I must say your new clothes are very fancy."Yuri said.
"Thanks."Draco said.
Victor comes down and then Pina and Rishia kissednhis cheeks."Okay okay, I missed you girls too."He then saw the five baldies."Oh great who invited them?"
"They came since they were grouped together."Zeo said.
They went in and then the other friends they made came in, like Ichigo's group, Yuto's group and many others they met during they're adventures.
They talked with each other and Hank goes to the door with Fiona seeing him leave.
"Where are you going Hank?"She asked.
"Just going for a walk."He said.
He leaves the house and he changed into Cat Noir.
He then jumps to many roofts while singing.
It's Christmas in town, all is cheery and bright,
But I am all alone tonight.
He looks inside a window to see a family together having dinner.
Families are together with their gifts by their side;
Only Cat Noir's alone tonight.
He then sits at a roof.
There's no warmth for me, no tenderness for me,
I'm alone like a cat in the night.
I'm a sad lonely kitty, won't anyone take pity?
Cat Noir is alone tonight.
Cat Noir is alone tonight.
He then runs off and kept running through every roof.
No one cares about me, if I'm lost or I'm found,
Then I'm just like a cat in the night!
He then sees a Christmas tree at the park.
I'll take your symbol of joy and burn it to the ground.
He jumps down and charges at it.
I'm the vengeful cat of the night.
I'm the vengeful cat of the night.
Ca-ta-cly-sm!
He then sees a vision of his father.
"I can't! I can't!"He touches a trash can destroying it.
I'm cold and alone, I don't want to be in pain
All that anger was all in vain
I need to go back home to try and find a way
Tomorrow will be a brand new day
He then falls on his knees, he changes back to normal with Plagg feeling tired.
"Plagg!"Hank holds him.
"I'm so hungry."He said.
"Don't worry we'll go home."Hank said.
Hank then stops and sees a familiar looking person sitting at a tree with her back turned at him.
"Hey that's Lovedove!"Hank said since same uniform and hair.
She got shocked and runs away, Hank chases after her.
"Get back here!"He said.
He chases Lovedove all over the city before they went to a alley, she then stops at a dead end.
"Okay shows over, who are you?!"Hank said.
She then turns around and he saw her crying but the most shocking part she has the same eyes as him, in her hands was a present.
"You..."Hank got surprised.
Plagg looks at both of them."Wow, you both have the same eyes."
"Hank."She said.
"How do you know about me?"He asked.
She cries even more and then said:"I'm... I'm... I'm your mommy!"
"What?!"Hank got shocked.
"It's the truth, I'm your real mother!"She said.
"But how?"Hank said.
"My name is Ai, Lila the one that you think is your mother is your aunt."Ai said."She never loved me, she always acted mean for not only being the youngest but because I was adopted, your father and I were in love and I had you when I was 16, but that woman, she tricked the doctors saying I was crazy and sent me away and tricked your father into marrying her since he couldn't leave you alone."
Hank was in total shock, he even used the force to see if it was true, and it was, to think that the woman that raised him did it out of spite against her little sister.
"I managed to escape, but I couldn't let them find me, so I had to hide and watch you from a distance, every Christmas I would leave you a gift but she destroyed them before you had a chance to see them, only when your father saw them that you got any gifts from me, he had to pretend they were from him."Ai said.
Hank looks at his mother and looks at the gift, he puts his arms up and she got surprised before Ai gave him the gift.
He then opens it to see a red scarf with Lovedove character on it, he smiles and puts it on and gives his mother a hug.
She then got happy and hugs him back, she didn't get to hold him ever since he was a newborn.
Back at the house
Hank arrives back and sees everyone at the dinning room celebrating and Fiona came up to him.
"Where were you, your mother came here to see you."Fiona said.
Hank saw his so called mother Lila at the sides talking to some of the adults.
"Where are the kids?"Hank asked.
"They are with the others, she asked if she could see them."Fiona said.
"I see."Hank said and he goes up to the stage that was there, he picks up a mic and looks at everyone."Excuse me!"
They all looked at him and Victor said:"Finally he came back."
"I would like my mother to come up to the stage."Hank said.
Lila smiles and goes up to the stage and said:"Now may I say a few words?"He nodded."I just want to say that I'm happy that we can be together as a family, where we can be happy and I can look after you."
The guests smiled at that, Draco then saw Hank had a blank expression.
"Now I want to say is this, we've been through many years and we shouldn't be lying to each other anymore right?"He said and she nodded, Hank waited making him get his answer after she didn't say anything."Well I have to say is I don't simply see you as the woman that raised me, or the woman that dad married."They all waited for what he's about to say."Because now I can see who you truly are..."Lila has a big smile but then Hank glares at her."A no good lying bitch!"
Everyone gasped while Lila was shocked.
"How could you do this to me, your still lying after all that happened, your still lying about the truth."He said and she shakes her head in tears.
"Hey don't you have any shame for making your mother cry!"Motoyasu said.
"She's not my mother, she's my aunt!"Hank said.
"What?!"They all said.
"I'll tell you what I found, my real mother is her sister Ai, Lila here tricked the doctors saying that she was crazy to get me in her care, she used me as a tool to get dad to marry her, she did all this to destroy her sister!"Hank said.
"No."Lila denies it.
"You came here at this day, and instead of telling the truth, you kept pretending to be someone who you are not, while you made my mother miserable."Hank said."Well we're through."
"Please-"She tried to talk to him.
"Get the fuck out of my house!"Hank said.
She then walks away and they all looked at her in shock or disgust before she left the house.
"Now meet my true mother, Ai!"Hank points at the back door and Ai comes in.
"It's Lovedove."Lupus said.
"She was his mother."Yuka said.
Ai walks up the stage and hugs Hank, before he puts his scarf back on.
"Mom, I would like for you to meet my family."Hank said and the kids came in.
She smiles seeing them and they hugged her making Ai so happy before hugging them.
The guests clapped for them since Hank's real mom is back with him.
"But how can you cheer for him, he destroyed his mother."Kyouya said.
"Yes, he picked a woman that wasn't even there for him."Kouki said.
"Didn't you idiots hear."Hajime said."His mother was robbed of her chance to be a mother to Hank, that woman didn't deserve to be with him."
"Yeah, at least Hank can be happy with someone that he can trust."Frederica said.
Hank smiles as he sees his mother being so happy, after being away from him she had real tears of joy coming out of her eyes being with her grandchildren.
"Mom these are my siblings."Hank said.
She then looks to see Ben, Johnny, Marcus, Kaine, Wade, Sam and Jessica, they were all wearing normal clothes with Johnny, Marcus, Wade and Sam having clothes with colors based on they're costumes.
She smiles and puts her arms up."Come to mommy."
They smiled and hugged her making a big family hug.
Everyone enjoyed the Christmas party with many opening gifts for each other having a great time.
Note: Here's the Christmas special, yes the woman we saw before is not Hank's Mom, Lovedove is, the truth has been revealed and the connection between Lila and Hank is cut for not telling the truth, Flandre Scarlet is from Touhou project.
