The Christmas tree was set, fully adorned with ornaments of all manners on it. The fire cracked and sizzled as the flames flickered. A nice meal had been served and eaten by the group of this household. The ones who had eaten were now in the living room, surrounding the fire as it heated the area. And the group was talking amongst themselves about different. Except for a blonde haired Xejo who sat there wondering about things, whilst his friends chatted amongst themselves.

"And so this one student keeps stuttering when I point out to him he said the wrong answer, so I tell him to get his act together because I could repeat all that with 8 pieces of gum in my mouth. And he says I'll rot my teeth. I tell him 'IT'S SUGARFREE!" C.B. said, making everyone laugh.

"Well better get those dishes done. I don't want Santa finding a messy house when he comes." Joe commented. As he did, Mizore and C.B. got up to attend to such. As Aelita and Joe did, Xejo sat there, starring at the fire, concerned.

"Xejo..What's wrong?" Joe asked.

"(sigh) Well…I'm just…a little confused on Christmas." Xejo replied.

"What's there to be confused about? It's a great time to be together during it!" Aelita replied a little ecstatic.

"Well…What is Christmas about anyways? I never fully got to understand it…since I use to be a nobody." Xejo replied, a little down.

"Well...there are many things Xejo about Christmas…but I think two important things come down to it." Joe said as he sat down next to his former nobody.

"Oh! I know this one!" Aelita said excitedly. "We're doing it now!"

"What do you mean?" Xejo Asked.

"Being together with the ones you care about, giving them gifts and your time to them."

"Oh I see." Xejo said

"But I'll tell you one thing that it is about, to people like me Xejo. And this is from a classic cartoon I watched the other day." Joe added. He then cleared his throat and in a gentle yet serious tone quoted something important to him:

"And there were in the same country shepherds, abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them! And they were sore afraid ... And the angel said unto them, "Fear not! For, behold, I bring you tidings o great joy, which shall be to all my people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ, the Lord."

"And this shall be a sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger." And suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the Heavenly Host praising God, and saying, "Glory to God in the Highest, and on Earth peace, and good will toward men."



Joe then returned to his normal tone of voice and continued.

"For me and Christians, it's about the birth of Jesus Christ, our savior. However, it also can mean the spirit of giving to ones you care as well, as God gave his son, Jesus, to us because he cared so much. And because he gave onto us his son, the spirit of giving to others you care about can apply here, since the holidays are about giving to others you care about."

Xejo thought for a moment and then smiled at the things he was told from Aelita and Joe. They cared about Xejo, and told them from the heart, something that meant a lot for him. Mizore and C.B. stood to side, next to them smiling along with what they heard.

The spirit of Christmas was with them that night.



By now in New England and Canada.
There's snow on the ground.


Mat and Dawn were inside a house, giving gifts to each other, while sipping drinks with whipped cream. Dawn jokingly put a dab of cream on Mat's nose and they both laughed at that. Meanwhile in a nearby store, Thomas and Lita looked through movies on display, Lita then jokingly pointed at one movie out, Christine , to which Thomas became interested in.

And out in California.
The sunshines' falling down.


Papa-T, Napalm and Mayreen, Link and Kira were all at their homes, watching classic Christmas movies with their families, laughing at some of the comedy in them. Mio, Alan, and Iosif were at their house, sometimes joking about the antics of their night.

And maybe down in Memphis, Graceland's all in lights.
And in Florida and Virginia, there's peace on earth tonight.


David and Tea, Chibi and Inuyasha, Montana and Nanoha, Erica, Alter and Ranger all sat next to a fire sharing stories to each other about previous Christmas incidents, chuckling at the tales told. In another house, Marina hugged Sora over a nice gift he had gotten her.

Christmas in Dixie, it's snowing in the pines.
Merry Christmas to everyone tonight.


Swerve, Mari and Fern both exchanged presents to each other. Fern was excited over the gift she had while Swerve and Mari sweat-dropped at her. Meanwhile MGM and Sadie watched as Miyami tore through a big gift with ease at their home.

It's windy in Chicago.
The kids are out of school.


Monica, Storm, Zeke and Mix had songbooks and began to sing Christmas carols to each other, brightening the mood of their house with the joyful songs they selected. Kat and Ellis in their home spent time playing video games that they had received from each other.

There's magic across the world.
The city's on the move.


Taiki, Hanon, Seira were all comfortable in their living room as Sylvia read to them The Night Before Christmas. Outside in another location, Emily, Titanic, and Queen Elizabeth I were having a fun snowball fight with each other. One snowball hit Titanic in the face and the others laughed only to begin to be pelted by multiple snowballs afterwards. Lusitania watched inside as the three did there snowball fight. Meanwhile, Rose enjoyed getting a puzzle from Luke in their home 

From Tokyo to Washington D.C.
All across the world, it's a peaceful Christmas time.


Kake, Zen, and Keba sat around a great meal, laughing at some of the stories they told each other, enjoying the time they had together. Keba later on went and met up with Lantus and they both hugged each other meeting that night for the holiday. Over in another location, Daniel and Lucia walked outside and watched as it snowed.

Christmas in Dixie, it's snowing in the pines.
Merry Christmas from Dixie, to everyone tonight.


Ten, Teru, and Kyooi sat next to their tree exchanging their gifts. Just then Marie pops out of a giant box and surprises Kyooi, angering him. In another house, Hikari and Riku sat watching a fire crack in their fireplace. In a nearby house,  Marie and Ryan told jokes at each other laughing at some of the things said that night. While in Haru's home, he and Meina had hot cocoa while talking about the snow falling to the ground.

And from Fort Payne, Alabama…

And Dallas, Texas…


The night sky is seen, the stars light up the sky in a beautiful fashion. And a lone star twinkles for a moment while the sound of what appears to the be a sleigh is heard.

Merry Christmas tonight.
Merry Christmas everyone!

The song is a special version of Alabama's "Christmas in Dixie" I realized though that the meaning would apply to the Southern U.S., but I felt maybe a little fixing up would work. ^^

Edit: OK...I think I got most of my friends or their OC's in.....now I'm gonna rest ^^;
