Disclaimer: I do not own mutant x I am merely borrowing the characters and giving them a nice Christmas.

ShalBrenLove: Thanks for the review. You welcome I'm glad I'm making you happy along with everyone else.

Stickwitu: Thanks. The gifts took up a lot of time. I spent so much time thinking them up. Yeah the chemistry set popped into my head when my brother was going on about what he was getting for Christmas.

Christmas At Sanctuary.

It was about half nine in the morning. Emma was drifting into a comfortable sleep in Jesse's arms. Brennan, Jesse and Shalimar were talking about playing some basketball. They were debating whether to do it before or after dinner. Emma butted in with a mumbled question, "What time is it Jess?" Jesse looked down at his watch and then answered. "It's about twenty to ten." He kissed the top of her head then stared over to Brennan and Shalimar. Emma woke herself up then and shuffled up so she could look over to Brennan and Shalimar. "Shal I think we should go and start getting dinner ready." "Oh do we have too I'm so comfortable here," Shalimar complained. "So am I but well if we want a proper Christmas dinner we had better get started now." "O.K," huffed Shalimar. She leaned her head up at an angle to look at Brennan and they exchanged a sweet passionate kiss and Jesse and Emma did something similar.

Emma stood up first and stepped carefully over all of the rubbish and gifts strewn all over the floor and then walked under the dojo. She waited for Shalimar to catch up then they both walked off to the kitchen leaving the lads alone.

Brennan and Jesse decided it was boring just sitting there trying to think of something to talk about so they decided to do something useful. Jesse headed off to the kitchen to get a black bag to put all of the wrapping paper in. While Jesse did this Brennan picked up all of his and Shalimar's presents and took them to his room. When he returned Jesse was there already picking up the scrunched up wrapping paper. He had done half way round the tree. Brennan approached him and said, "Let me do the rest you go take your and Emma's presents back to your room." "Right O.K." Jesse handed over the black bag and trampling over some more rubbish he picked up Emma and his presents carefully and took them back to his room. He put his presents on his side of the bad and Emma's on the other.

When he got back to the Christmas tree all of the rubbish had gone and so had Brennan. Jesse figured he had gone and took the rubbish out. Jesse went and sat back down next to the tree. Adam's presents were in a neat pile underneath the tree again. Jesse shuffled around and sat into a crossed legged position and with his hands in his lap he fiddled with the ring Adam had given him. As the light hit it from different directions it changed colour. It was normally an earth brown bit when the light caught it full on it went to a dirty orange. And when no light hit it, it was a filthy brown or black. He then moved on to the symbol on it. It had such flowing smooth lines that curved gently at parts then viscously. The symbol was embossed and Jesse kept running his finger over the top of it.

THE END

Ok that's is. Christmas morning. I decided to change this story as I couldn't think of anything for later on so I'll finish it here. Hope you all enjoyed this little story.
