What's next?
Hoshino Family Reunion.
Aqua Hoshino was in a really bad mood.H
His sister Ruby had gone missing a month back and there was no trace of her!
Miyako was worried sick and reported her missing.
But nothing came up...
Aqua then got a message saying it was from Ruby, telling him to meet her in the hospital they were born in, all the way to Takachiho.
Aqua immediately went, he told Miyako that he had a lead and would call her.
Aqua got off the train and made his way to the hospital.
Why was she here, what was going on?
Where has she been?
Shaking his head, he walked faster.
He arrived in front of the hospital and looked around.
Why here...
He spotted a head of blonde hair walking into the forest.
Running to where he saw what he assumed was his sister.
He ran through the forest until he reached a clearing, Ruby was standing in the middle, she turned and smiled at him.
"... Ruby... Where have you been?!" Aqua shouted.
"... I missed you... Gorou." Those words made him feeeze.
"H-how?"
"I've been enlightened... I have seen what's happened to you and me... It's me, Sarina." Ruby placed a hand on her chest.
Aqua stared at her for a moment. "So.. I was right... You were too smart for a baby back then." Aqua deadpanned.
Ruby gaped. "LOOK WHO'S TALKING! IT MADE SO MUCH SENSE WHY YOU WERE SO EMBARRASSED TO BATHE WITH MAMA!" She screeched
Aqua felt at ease, she was still herself. "Come on lets go home... Miyako is worried sick.
Ruby's face blanked. "Not yet... Look behind you."
Aqua blinked and looked behind him and he froze cold.
Ai was standing there, her eyes full of love for him, his mother. "Aquamarine.." Her voice was exactly how he remebered it.
"N-no that's impossible..." Aqua stumbled back and fell.
"... See I told you he won't believe this." Ruby sighed.
"Give him time hun, this is a lot to process." Ai waved.
"Stop pretending to be her!" Aqua screamed in rage.
Ai's face went blank. "... I was sad when I found out you died... But I am greatful for having such an amazing son... Even though it was awkward for you." Ai stuck her tongue out teasingly.
Aqua got up and ran over to her and grabbed her shoulders. "I SAID STOP!" He glared at her, the star in his eye going black for a moment.
"... Do you remember us talking on the roof of the hospital... I kinda knew you were fan." Ai smiled, being patient with him.
Aqua shook as he hugged his mother.
Ai hugged her son and smiled. "I'm here.."
"But... How?" Aqua asked looking up at her.
Ruby flinched and rubber her arm. Ai gave a small nervous laugh. "That's complicated... Lets have a sit and talk, I brought food." She held out a basket with food.
Aqua looked at the basket and then at her.
He nodded, just happy to have her back.
(SPOILER FOR OSHI NO KO MANGA, NAME DROP!)
Hikaru Kamiki was walking through the streets, following an actress that he was planning on luring away, the actress turned into an alley… it was too easy.
He turned and went into the alley but he saw nothing.
"You're a hard person to find." A voice called out behind him.
It was a teen wearing jeans, a jacket over a red shirt, what was confusing was the bandages wrapped over his eyes.
"Can I help you with something?" Hikaru asked, who was this kid.
"Cut the bullshit Hikaru… what a fucking disgrace of a name, it's supposed to mean Hikari but all I see is a murderer." The teen spat, even if his eyes were covered Hikaru could feel the glare.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Hikaru denied.
The teen snorted. "Of course you don't…" the teen grabbed the bandages and started to pull, it came off easily.
When Hikaru saw the teen taking the bandages off, the teen opened his eyes, showing red eyes with an odd pattern in the center.

"I suggest you don't scream." The teen's eyes started to bleed. Everything went black.
Aqua stared at Ai as she ate a sandwich.
"... She's not going anywhere." Ruby sighed.
"How did you find her?" Aqua asked.
"Again… complicated." Ruby sighed. "What do you know of the multiverse theory?"
Aqua frowned. "I know of it, but how do you know about it?" He asked.
Ruby pouted. "I'm not stupid…"
"You watched that movie about it." Ai pointed out.
"Mamaaaa." Ruby whined.
"So… you're not exactly my mom?" Aqua asked.
"I am!" Ai exclaimed. "It's just… I was brought back and met someone, he helped us get here and is the reason all this is possible."
Aqua narrowed his eyes. "Brought back?"
"Revived." Ruby confirmed with a nod.
"... And that's where you were?" Aqua looked at Ruby.
"Yeah, but I didn't die!" Ruby explained. "Mama and I are… owned by the man who helped us…"
Aqua glared. "And who is this man?" He asked, rage evident in his voice.
"My boyfriend." Ai immediately told Aqua. "Don't plot anything towards him, he's very powerful."
Aqua looked at his mom and was about to say something but a body was tossed in front of them.
"He's sick in the head." Ethan grumbled as he walked up to them, wiping blood from his cheeks.
"Are you alright?!" Ai immediately got up and ran over to Ethan, he waved her off.
"I'm fine, the booster to give me the mangekyou sharingan is costing but it'll past." Ethan sighed as he kissed her forehead, Ai smiled at that.
Aqua blinked and looked at the man on the floor, he looked…
"Meet Hikaru Kamiki, your father." Ethan told them. "And a murderer, you won't believe the crimes I've seen in his head." Ethan scowled.
Ai looked at Hikaru, he looked traumatized. "What… did you do?" She asked him.
Ruby sighed shakily and got up, she walked over to Ethan.
Aqua got up and glared at the man who caused all his pain.
"I made him relive one of his worst moments of his life for …. 96 hours in his mind…" Ethan walked over to Hikaru and placed a foot on the man's chest. "But he can still hear us, can't you?" Ethan sneered.
Aqua was stunned, this man ….who was he?
"... I didn't introduce myself." Ethan offered his hand to Aqua. "Ethan Kenway."
"... Aqua." Aqua shook Ethan's hand.
"You don't like aquamarine?" Ai pouted from her spot.
Ethan smirked. "I mean, it's a bit much sweetie." He chuckled.
Aqua looked down at his father. "... How did you find him?"
"Oh that, well, I'm a Prime Worlder, I have information on your world in my fingertips, finding this scumbag was somewhat easy." Ethan smiled. "Anything you wanna say to him, do it now before I put him in a full on coma." Ethan pulled his foot away and walked away.
Ai walked over to Hikaru and stared at him. "You leaked my address and had me killed… manipulating my fans for your amusement." She uttered and then started kicking him. "LEAVING MY KIDS ON THEIR OWN! I WON'T FORGIVE YOU!"
Aqua stepped back, never seeing his mom angry before.
Ai stopped and went over to Ethan.
Ruby stepped up next, she started stomping her foot on Hikaru's stomach hard. "THIS IS FOR SENSEI!!" Ruby screamed.
Aqua blinked as she kept stomping and the man groaned.
Ruby stopped and looked at her brother, she hugged him tightly before she pulled away and went over to Ethan.
Aqua looked at Hikaru and knelt down. "I've dreamt of finding you and making you pay… I wanted to see you suffer."
"You can." Aqua looked up and saw Ethan standing closer now. "I can give you some closure…"
"... What's the catch?" Aqua asked, not trusting Ethan.
"No catch… just don't be pissed at me for having your sister and mom." Ethan shrugged.
Aqua narrowed his eyes before nodding.
Ethan's blue eyes shifted to red and then it gained a pattern.
Aqua was nibbling on a onigiri.
"Aoi always knows how to make good food…" Ruby whined as she ate her tempura.
"We can ask for cooking lessons later." Ai suggested.
After spending 96 hours releasing his rage in Ethan's… illusion, he felt a bit at ease.
Ethan made a clone who dragged the body away for disposal.
… What the hell was he?
"I'm glad you let your anger out." Ethan commented as he sipped on a flask.
"... Is that ****?" Aqua asked Ethan.
"Oh? No no, I prefer sweet iced tea." Ethan offered Aqua who shook his head and pondered on what he was told.
"So they'll be able to come back as they please?"
"Yeah, Ruby can go back to school, she's a bit older." Ethan shrugged. "But Ai… well she's dead here."
Aqua nodded slowly in understanding. "Hopefully she'll be able to pass college without issue.
A small thing Ethan tweaked when he bought this world, most of the cast girls were over or 18 now.
"... So you're doing that dating show thing?" Ethan asked.
How did… right Prime Worlder… whatever that meant.
"Yeah… I have to be back soon…" Aqua looked up into the sky.
His vengeance was fulfilled, now he's free… he could leave the industry.
"... Well since I bought this world, I'm gonna do some messing around, maybe even find cuties." Ethan smirked.
Aqua gave Ethan a dull stare. What he said made almost no sense but the last part…
"Hey don't look at me like that." Ethan huffed. "I'll help support Ruby's dream, all good fun." Ethan shrugged. "I have my ways of support so hopefully it'll work out."
Aqua was a bit… put off, he sighed. "Just keep her safe please.."
"As long as you don't let that sister complex run wild." Ethan stared at him.
"... Fine." Aqua sighed.
"Oh! Aqua! You're in the dating show now!?" Ai crawled up to them with a big smile.
Aqua felt embarrassed as he deflected his mom's questions.
She knew that it was acting!
But the feeling of having her dig into his love life was… refreshing.
