Odd Christmas

The reason Asashi was in such a rush was that they were planning to celebrate Christmas at his parent's house. Both he and his wife's side of the family were going to be there and considering both sides came from wealthy backgrounds both wanted to host.

It was a way to show off to the other side of the family as both used to be business rivals. It was through Miku and Asashi's marriage that both families stopped getting into business competitions with each other. 

As a compromise, it had been decided that each major Holiday would alternate between where they celebrated. Last Christmas, it had been held at Miku's parents' so this time they were going to host at Asashi's.

On another note, considering that both he and his wife were still young, both were only 28 and 27 respectively so their entire families were still alive. Even, Asashi's grandparents were still alive, but sadly Miku's grandparents had already passed.

That led to the current situation as Ivan's family, Typhon, and Gustave included were in the family's private jetliner. Gustave was the family pet despite his weirdness and no normal pet sitter could keep an eye on him. 

He was currently in the cargo hold, but to ensure no accidents happened, the hold was reinforced with several quirks. The whole plane was and Ivan had helped supply some more rare materials for his safety. At the moment he was lying down in his personal room as the whole family had a room in the jet. 

He was also currently back in his Toji form as he felt far more happy as a man than a girl. He was lying down in a king-sized bed watching a documentary on animals with quirks. 

It was quite interesting and even Typhon was glued to the TV from his head. Just as he was seeing them speak on Bald Eagles with quirks, his door opened. He looked who it was and saw it was Yoshimura. 

"Yoshimura. What's up?" 

He did not look away from the screen as he drank his soda. Yoshimura took a few moments to remind herself that Ivan was Momo. A hard thing to do as 'Ivan' was a total hottie. 

"Your father wanted me to tell you we will be landing in 30 minutes." 

He nodded. 

"Thanks for the notice." 

Yoshimura looked at the TV and listened a little. 

"The American Bald Eagle, the symbol of American freedom has been observed in the past to possess several quirks ranging from wind manipulation, lightning, or even metal feathers. However, the ones with quirks are larger and far more aggressive so they are monitored to keep them away from people." 

She was curious about something. 

"What about Gustave? Why did Edward sell him to you for cheap?" 

"I am not sure. I send him regular updates, but when I ask about it he says that it was just my luck." 

Ivan sat in his bed which caused Typhon to jump from his head to his shoulder. Yoshimura had to catch herself from gawking as despite knowing the truth of Ivan, she felt her very being be drawn to him. 

'I wonder, is this because of the Space Marine Gene Seed or my hormones? She seems to be having some issues with her attraction to me. Curious.' 

"Tell me, Yoshimura, do you find me attractive?" 

His black eyes locked into her purple which caused her to stare into his for a few moments. 

"Y-NO! Ivan, why are you doing that? You act like you have been a man your whole life and not a girl." 

Ivan smiled in a knowing way which caused Yoshimura to freeze. 

"Wait, have you always wanted to be a man over a girl?" 

Ivan nodded as he was not going to lie. 

"Yes. It's the truth." 

Yoshimura sighed as she sat down on his bed. 

"Why?" 

'How to explain I was a man from the start?' 

Ivan pondered on how to explain this to his family and Yoshimura he had always been a girl. In reality, he was always a man forced into a female body against his will. This was just him returning to basics. 

"Who knows? All I know is that I feel happier like this than I have my whole life. Keep this to yourself, will you?" 

Yoshimura nodded. 

"I will, just don't hit on me, please. It's weird for me as you're still 8 years old." 

Ivan almost forgot he was with his Space Marine biology he was huge. 

"Ah, I almost forgot I was. So, I just have to be older and then I can hit on you yes?" 

He winked at Yoshimura who was the same age as his mother and a total beauty. She had large breasts, a pretty face, gorgeous purple eyes, long red hair, a little on the taller side, and she had a big ass.

Her face warmed up a little as despite being 27, she was a virgin and single her whole life. 

"NO!"

She snorted and walked out of his room with a huff, but Ivan used that chance to stare at her ass through her maid outfit. 

'She is fun to tease.' 

Either way, for the rest of the flight he just relaxed and binged on the snacks in his room. When the flight came to an end they landed at Wakkanai city where Asashi's family had invested heavily in the city for many generations. 

They could trace their family to the Edo Period and also a reason for their vast wealth today. And for some reason, they loved the cold so they bought out huge territory in the city for the colder weather. 

When they landed at Ivan's grandparent's private landing strip, he got out of his room with Typhon on his shoulder. Any luggage he had was eaten by Typhon who did not need to eat the item in question. 

He could just open portals to an alternative space where Ivan stored several of his more illegal inventions. Guns, explosives, weapons, armor, swords, and many more dangerous items. 

When Ivan came out of his room, his mother Miku frowned again at seeing him like that, but he ignored her. Asashi though seemed quite overjoyed at the opportunity was quite supportive.

He walked over and patted him on the shoulder. 

"Ivan, mind if I call you son?" 

"Go ahead, Dad. I prefer it."

"Well then, don't mind if I do." 

Miku wanted to say something, but she held her tongue. She was not as comfortable as her husband was at this whole Ivan business. She wanted her daughter back, but how sad for her that her daughter never existed. 

Either way, once they got out of the Jet Ivan's grandparents already sent some drivers to pick them up. The property was huge and this Landing Strip was some ways from the manor itself. 

Once all their luggage was away, Gustave was allowed out of the Cargo Bay and loaded onto an 18-wheeler with an animal transporter. The crocodile simply went with the flow as he could not be bothered with anything else. 

From there, they were driven up to the manor itself that had stood for the past 300 years. Of course, at that time it had been renovated several times as the decades passed.

Once the front gate opened up, the SUVs parked in front of the huge fancy mansion to allow them out. Ivan stepped out of the SUV and took a deep breath before exhaling. 

It was much colder here than it was back in his home which he liked. Typhon on his shoulder did not seem to be bothered by the cold at all. 

"It's good to be back here." 

Asashi nodded with a smile. 

"I agree son. The cold reminds me of my youth as I played in the snow for hours. Come on, let's go show your grandparents your new self." 

Just as he was going to follow his Father Miku spoke up. 

"New self? What do you mean?" 

Asashi did not think he said anything wrong. 

"What? Ivan seems to like this so I am supporting him. This was his choice so I won't get in his way. Of course, that means if for whatever reason decides that he likes being Momo more that is what I will refer to him. I am just being accepting and you knew I wanted a son, but you don't want more kids." 

The driver that drove them here decided to not get involved and instead went to help open the animal transporter to let Gustave out. Yoshimura tried to mediate between them as Miku still did not see Ivan as a man. 

She just saw him as her daughter shapeshifting for fun and not for the true reason. 

"Miku." 

Miku frowned as she was currently emotional. 

"What? Are you going to say I am wrong or not being understanding?"

Yoshimura did not say anything else as Ivan sighed. 

"Relax already Mom. Don't make this a bigger deal than it has to be." 

Miku did not say anything else and simply walked into the house. Yoshimura looked at Ivan and Asashi for a few moments before following her friend. 

"Miku! Wait!"

Once she was gone, Asashi sighed. 

"Why is she making this a bigger deal than it has to be?" 

Ivan shook his head. 

"Who knows? Let's not let this ruin Christmas. Let's go see the family." 

That made Asashi smile as he would be seeing his younger brother and older sister. 

"Right." 

Gustave did not follow and instead turned around as he wanted to explore. Typhon flew off and landed on his snout to keep an eye on his minion. As for Asashi and Ivan, they entered the mansion and went to meet up with the gathered family. 

They would be staying for a week as Christmas was a week away. Both sides of the family would gather over the week, but for the moment they were curious who was here. 

When they entered the living room, Ivan's grandparents, uncle, aunt, their spouses, and children were all there. His mother's side of the family had yet to arrive it seemed. Either way, When Asashi and Ivan walked in everyone began to greet him. 

First, Ivan's grandfather stood up from his chair and walked over to give his son a big hug. 

"Asashi my son, it's a blessing to see you in good health." 

Asato Yaoyorozu looked quite big like his son Asashi if only older and with whiter hair. He had just turned 46 so he still had plenty of life left. 

Asashi hugged his Father tight. 

"I should be saying that I am still young after all. Now then, I want you all to meet Ivan. Guess who he is?" 

Ivan smiled before extending a hand to his grandfather who shook it.

"Greetings son."

"Close." 

Asato squinted his eyes as he saw some traits that reminded him of his granddaughter Momo. Momo had the same gold-slitted eyes surrounded by black, the same black nails and sharp teeth. 

Asato nearly fell on his ass. 

"Shut up, MOMO!" 

Ivan laughed as he hugged his grandfather. 

"I go by Ivan, but yes. I learned if I could shift certain traits of myself why not my whole self? What do you think?" 

Ivan's grandfather covered her mouth in shock. 

"How is that possible?" 

Ivan walked over to his sweet grandmother and hugged her. Her name was Mukai Mizuki, but she took her husband's last name Yaoyorozu after they married. 

"Quirks make the impossible possible Grandma." 

She smiled as she cupped his cheeks. 

"My, my, you are such a strapping young man. Ivan was it, I like it." 

Ivan smiled as he went on to greet his Uncle and Aunt. 

"Uncle Hirano, Aunty Osaki, it's great to see you again." 

Both his Uncle and Aunt seemed pleased to see him again. His uncle looked very close to his brother except that he had a beard. He walked over to his nephew and hugged him.

"Likewise. And Mom is right, you are strapping. Makes me a tad jealous." 

He just patted his Uncle on the back. 

"Come to me and I will train you and make you earn your Gigachad body." 

"Remind me to take you up on that offer." 

As for Osaki, she was a gorgeous, but serious woman.

"How is your mom taking this?" 

That made Ivan pause a bit which made his aunt nod. 

"I see, I will talk to her for you. Merry Christmas." 

With that, she left her young son who was 6 years old behind. The small boy ran over to Ivan with stars in his eyes. 

"Cousin, will I have muscles like you too?" 

Ivan did a pose showing off his muscles. 

"Leave it to me and you will." 

"AWESOME!" 

Seemed that besides his mom, everyone accepted him as Ivan. That made things much easier for him as he was worried on how they would take it. As long as his grandfather accepted it, that was the best suppport he could find.
