Same universe as "The Legends in the Books"

A blackout. There was a major blackout in Gotham City. Including the Wayne manor. Why don't they just use the generator? Jason may or may not have used it as a shooting target and now it's broken. The thing was, it wasn't only dark, but also cold, and let's just say, Marinette is slowly drifting off into hibernation. Once she slips into it, she won't wake up until winter is over, they can't afford to let that happen, Tom and Sabine are coming over on Christmas Eve. "Come on Habibi, stay awake," Damian said to Marinette who was slowly drifting off on his lap, "What is taking so long to get that fire on?"

"We're trying Demon," Jason said, "Why does this sh*t happen when Alfred is away?" The boys had been trying to light up the fire for quite sometime now, but after so long using an electric heater they apparently can't do it. And as Jason had said, Alfred was off visiting his wife who no one knew he had. Bruce was... Uh... With Selina, at her house. Do I need to say more? Dick was in Bludhaven. "Hurry up imbeciles," Damian said impatiently and partly panicking, "Habibi?" "Hm?" "How about we play a game?

"Play what?" the girl addressed asked. "How about the last letter name?" "I can try," she answered him."

"Love"
"Everlasting"
"Gift"
"Taboggan"
"North"
"Holly"
"You"
"Unwrap"
"Pageant"
"Tinsel"
"Lights"

Marinette stayes silent. "Beloved?" "Hm?" "What are you thinking about?" Damian knew that face she was deep im thought. "Trying something." Suddenly a portal appeared and out came a man wearing a red jacket with white edges paired with a classic red and white Christmas hat.

"Santa!" Mari said! "Hello Marinette. Hello to you too Damian, Jason, Tim. The boys stared in shock at the man because one, none of them believe in this man even after last year's debate and two, he was not as... big, as people picture him. " Holy sh*t," Jason said, "You're the real thing." "Language young man, and yes of course I am," the jolly man said, "But enough chit chat for now, let's get our streak setter somewhere warm shall we," pointing to the portal still behind him. He entered and one by one the boys followed. "Dear me!" a female voice shouted, Mrs. Claus, "Let's get you kids warmed up." She ushered them to the fire and gave them snacks.

Marinette was less sleepy each moment that passed. "You could've called sooner you know Mari," Santa said, clearly worried for the girl. "I know," she replied, "Just didn't want to bother you." Santa laughed, "And that my dear is you how you earn the top place of my nice list every year." Mari grinned. "Excuse me but I think I heard you wrong," Tim said, "Bean earned top spot on your nice list every year? Why does that sound believable?"

Santa chuckled, "Indeed, she does a lot to earn that place if I must say so myself. I can try to list them. Let's see year..." Mari had droned him out knowing that it would only embarrass her and headed to the stables. "Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Dunder, and Blitzen, you're all here," she said happily. She pet Dasher as she gazed out the stable window.

"What are you looking at beloved?" Damian asked, she hadn't heard him come in. "The northern lights, they're beautiful," she said. "They are, aren't they?" he said, "but I know something even more beautiful." "Really?" Marinette asked, "What is it?" She gazed up to look at him.

"You"
