Author's Note:

I've never played [League of Legends], but I watched [Arcane] and absolutely loved the series. Jinx is my favorite character in the entire series, but I feel sorry for her and the constant tragedy she ends up receiving.

Recently, I read a fanfic [A Zaunite Technomage On The Isle], it's about how Jinx ends up becoming Luz Noceda's older sister, something that makes her more mentally healthy and happier.

Then, I thought why not write a story where the opposite happens where a young Powder/Jinx ends up being raised in a "healthier" family and receives Aunt Luz and Grandma Eda?

This is a little Christmas present for myself. But on this occasion I wish a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to my readers. Happy whatever you celebrate this time of year!

POV Narrator

There was a dark empty space, nothing could be seen in either direction, however, there was one person in this void, one person who had a tan colored coat, black boots, and a book in his left arm.

The person holding the book is a young man in his early twenties, wearing a faded gray jacket with off-white cuffs, silver buttons, black trousers and strappy leather boots, and a red scarf.

He also wears a hood, which is part of the tunic, with which he covers his face as well as his hair, but his mouth and nose are visible, albeit barely.

He smiled before removing the hood, revealing his black hair slicked back and gray eyes.

The gray-clad Prophet looks towards an invisible audience that only he is able to perceive and interact with.

"Greetings, dear readers, I am Woz, the scribe and chronicler of the greatest Demon King who ever lived." declares Woz, proud of his position and the master he serves.

"Before we start our show, I have to decorate this stage, Christmas is coming to us too." Woz said with a big smile, seeming to love Christmas.

The "spotlights" of the room opened to reveal a Christmas scene, a beautiful cabin with a large Christmas tree full of presents, a red armchair and a brick fireplace.

Woz appears in front of the "cameras" wearing a hand-knitted green sweater with a clock-like symbol on it and a Santa hat on his head.

"Christmas isn't here yet, but I can't help but open a single gift early." Woz admits, setting his old book down on a small table with a tray of cookies and a glass of milk.

Woz walks over to the Christmas tree and takes one of the presents from the sea, one present that is definitely a book wrapped in expensive wrapping paper and a big bow.

"Let's see what's inside." Woz said, starting to open the present so as not to ruin the wrapping or the bow.

Now Woz has in his hands a thin, neon blue book with a cover that looks like it was drawn by a child and features what looks like a big, messy, but happy family.

At the top of the cover, written in white with glitter, is the title of the book: The Arcane House - Origins: Jinx Bahamut and his bizarre family

Woz sat down in the red chair, holding the new book in his hands, preparing for a new reading for himself and his audience.

" So far I have told you the right story of my glorious king. This time we will not talk about the great deeds of my Waga Maou.

Instead, I will tell a story about how an unfortunate orphan girl is found and welcomed into the life of my Waga Maou." Woz declares, in a tone full of curiosity, opening the book, preparing to tell a new story.

The Multiverse is an extremely vast and complex concept that very few people can say they truly understand anything about.

Planewalkers those born with the power to walk across worlds can be considered the most experienced among mortals when it comes to exploring the Multiverse.

Whether a brilliant scientific mind with a unique invention or a powerful sorcerer with a mastery of space-time magic can travel to another world, they are mere amateurs compared to the Planewalkers, those born to travel across the Multiverse.

But there is an even more dangerous and grandiose concept than the Multiverse, the Kaleidoscope.

If the Multiverse is a composite of countless Universes, each filled with billions of worlds, each of them unique, with their own heroes and villains.

So, the Kaleidoscope is all of this multiplied by infinity, because it contains every single possibility of every single action that a single person can produce.

The Kaleidoscope is all of this multiplied by infinity, because it contains every single possibility of every single action that a single person can produce.

According to the notes of Zelretch, the only person who truly understood the Kaleidoscope and mastered it, there is a sequence of actions that occur no matter the path.

For example:

- A person will be bitten by a certain spider, then a tragedy will happen, which will make that person become a spider-themed hero or heroine.

- Shirou Emiya will always end up getting involved in the Holy Grail War, but which heroine he will fall in love with varies from Artoria Pendragon, Rin Thosaka, Sakura Matou, Luvia Edelfelt etc.

- Luz Noceda will end up on the Boiling Isles, but her age and heritage may vary, as may her starting abilities. She could be a normal girl, without a shred of knowledge of magic. Or she could be a young witch with a magical ancestor and mastery of a single branch of magic.

- Anne, Marcy, and Sasha will eventually find the Calamity Box and reach Amphibia, but who gets where or what powers they will manifest is another matter. In a certain corner of the Kaleidoscope, the three girls have become Kamen Rider...

- Dipper and Mabel will have their adventure in Gravity Falls, but when they get to Gravity Falls and who they form lasting bonds with can change very easily.

- Mash Kyrielight will eventually fall in love with or become the female best friend of the Last Master of Chaldea. But this person can be Gudako, Gudao, Hakuno Kishinami, Shirou Emiya, or someone completely different.

The world of Runterra also has this series of predestined events that will happen one way or another.

The creation of Hextech may have been done by Jayce at an older age, after rebuilding his reputation; another possibility is that Viktor continues Jayce's work after he commits suicide, so as not to live in shame.

One of the other constant events in the Runterra timelines is the tragedy that strikes Powder/Jinx.

One way or another, Powder will end up losing her current family, Vi will grow distant from her, then Powder will end up being "adopted" by someone who will shape her future identity.

In most cases, Silco will end up taking Powder and turning her into Jinx, the female bomber who nearly destroyed Piltover.

But in the vastness of the Kaleidoscope, there are many other possible paths for Powder:

- The blue-haired girl could have attracted Singed's attention and he realized that she was the one who created the bomb that devastated that factory.

A father without sons, a daughter without a father, two pieces that complete each other. Powder raised by Singed would become the infamous mad scientist of Zaun, a woman of genius, mother of a thousand horrors, who would have crossed every limit in the name of science.

- Hextech co-founder Viktor, after taking the first step with Jayce in introducing Hextech to Piltover, could have gone to Zaun to get some medicine to feel better after a period full of effort and agitation.

Viktor could have heard the explosions, driven by curiosity he would have investigated and inadvertently linked his life to that of Powder.

Jinx with the influence of Viktor, Jayce, Heimerdinger, she would become one of the most intelligent and well educated people in Piltover, even all of Runterra. On this path, Jinx could become a heroine who would have a happy ending or a bad girl who would create a bomb powerful enough to destroy Piltover and Zaun.

- Caitlyn could have gone off on her own to investigate the death of the previous sheriff, chasing Marcus to Zaun, finding Powder just after she was "abandoned" by Vi. Caitlyn being a good girl would have taken Powder with her.

A Powder grown by the Kiramman is an unlikely, yet unique formula.

With a politician "mother", a doctor father and a police officer older sister, the results of such a family could lead to the birth of a Jinx who could take on a role similar to Batman or Professor Moriarty.

In a very small number of timelines, Jinx ends up being adopted by people who have no connection to Piltover or Zaun.

In this timeline, Powder was born with an innate trait that is 1 in a million.

Inside Zaun, a certain factory was severely damaged by a powerful blue-colored explosion, causing serious structural damage, worker casualties, and starting a fire.

The person responsible for this disaster is Powder, a short, thin 11-year-old girl with a passion for making bombs.

Unfortunately, Powder's bombs never work, well, that changed in the last few minutes when his very special bomb went off in a big way.

Powder has pale skin, silvery powder blue eyes with darker spots, and short blue hair.

Her hair is held in a single braid that falls just below her shoulders, with a roughly cut, chin-length fringe held in place with a series of small metal clips.

Powder's outfit consists of a dark blue shirt, a pink/purple shirt with darker vertical stripes over it, brown shorts over purple leggings, and brown ankle boots.

Finally, Powder wears a blue skirt with a large section in the front, a belt and pockets for bombs and extra parts, and dark leg warmers and armbands.

The blue-haired girl is not celebrating the success of her bomb, instead she is crying.

Powder used that bomb in hopes of saving his family trapped inside the factory with criminals led by a Crime Lord with a bone to pick with his adoptive father.

The bomb worked, killing the criminals, along with 3/4 of the blue-haired girl's family, leaving only her older, biological sister, Vi, alive.

If the knowledge that she killed her adoptive father and her two older adoptive brothers wasn't enough to traumatize the blue-haired girl.

Vi, has decided to disown her sister, Powder, and walk away.

At this very moment, the blue-haired girl is facing the worst moment of her life.

Powder is so lost in her own despair that she fails to notice the Crime Lord, Silco, approaching her with a dagger in his hands.

There is a storm of thoughts and emotions in Powder's head. At first, all the blue-haired girl wants is for her older sister to come back to her.

Then, when she realized Vi wasn't coming back, Powder just wanted to get away from here and find someone who wanted her.

Suddenly the blue-haired girl put her hands on her chest, feeling a sensation that is difficult to describe, as if a small flame had lit up inside her.

Silco testified as Powder emitted a flash of blue light, then disappeared without a trace.

"What in the name of the Arcane just happened?" Silco asks aloud, confused by what he just witnessed.

The Crime Lord will receive his answer in seven years when the girl returns, but with a new name, Jinx Bahamut, the Witch of Explosions.

On another world far from Runeterra, near a huge black castle located in a mountainous area filled with snow and trees, a Master and Servant pair were walking through the snow in search of something.

Mash Kyrielight is a beautiful young woman of 34 years old, but due to her unique status as a Demi-Servant or/and Designer Baby, she appears to be more or less 18 years old.

Mash is 158 cm tall, white and smooth skin, lilac/pink hair, kept short and with a short fringe covering her left eye.

Her figure is quite athletic and her breasts have sparked comments from many men and women about her physique and have also earned her the nickname "Mashmallow.

With the Christmas holidays approaching, Mash is wearing a Santa Dress costume that makes her a gift to any man or woman who sees her. Black knee-high boots, a red dress with white stripes on the edge of the skirt and sleeves, a black belt and the classic Santa hat.

The Master of Mash hasn't dressed up for the holidays, his entire body is currently covered in a white camouflage cloak for the arctic climate.

If someone saw it they would say that a Santa Claus woman is taking a walk with the snow ghost.

The couple soon found the blue-haired girl passed out in the snow.

Mash was the first to move, picking Powder up from the snow and holding her close to her chest, trying to warm the unconscious girl.

"Mash you wanted a baby girl for christmas right?" asks the Master of Mash, quite calm about the whole situation, sure that everything will be fine for the little girl.

After all, the three of them are near Castle Bahamut, a fortress filled with all sorts of blessings and curses crafted from magic, science, or some combination thereof.
