New Link Christmas 2017
- The Grand Santa Strategy

Summary:
Minori is excited for Christmas since shes been on her best behaviour all year.
The Gessen girls dont want to break the news to her that Santa isnt real, up until recently Kurokage was the one playing the role of fake-Santa but now that hes gone they have to improvise.
They try and tell her that Santa isnt coming at first, but she throws a tantrum so they back down and have change of plans.

Yumi and Shiki decide to head down to the school shop looking to buy a Santa outfit.
Turns out they stock them at Christmas since its good for espionage and what not, but for some reason theres only one regular Santa outfit remaining whilst the others are all sexy santa swimsuits.
They meet Hibari at the shop, coincidentally she needs a Santa outfit aswell for Yaguu's birthday, she also needs it as Yomi and Ikaruga are planning on hosting a show for which they need costumes, so they decide to duel over the last outfit.
Yumi loses and forfeits the proper suit, being left with no choice but to get the skimpy version instead.

Shiki offers to wear it in her place but since Yumi is more accustomed to the cold she decides to take one for the team.
Their next step is to go into town and collect the gifts that Murakumo and Yozakura reserved for Minori in advance.
They have an unexpected encounter with Miyabi who also happens to be wearing a sexy santa swimsuit (shes in a similar situation as Gessen except its for Murasaki instead.)
Miyabi being both freezing cold and embarrassed by the exhibitionist outfit challenges Yumi to a duel with the condition that if she wins Yumi will go and collect Murasaki's presents in her place.
Miyabi loses and then makes a quick exit.

Yumi goes into town and encounters Hibari yet again. She's wearing the regular Santa outfit and had been preparing to deliver presents to some poor kids in the city's slums when she got robbed. Yumi and Shiki help beat up the thugs who stole Hibari's presents and recollect them but in the process drop Minori's Christmas present.
Fubuki shows up and finds the present but isnt able to give it back before they walk out of earshot.
Shiki and Yumi go off to assist Hibari with her present delivery since she lost alot of time having to reclaim the stolen goods.
Along the way they meet a horny Imu tailing Miyabi around town while enjoying the site of her embarrassed and exposed body.

When Yumi tries sneaking back into the base to deliver the Christmas gifts she gets caught by Minori.
Minori confesses that she knew Santa wasnt real all along and that it was merely Kurokage pretending for her sake.
She apologises for being selfish and causing trouble, saying something like she thought Kurokage would come back if she believed hard enough.
The next morning Minori finds a letter from Santa despite nobody in Gessen having detected anyone entering their base overnight
She then happily concludes that it was actually from Santa/Kurokage and that he came and delivered the letter to her during the night.
