How to stop X Emacs comming up in its own window....

Use the command "emacs -t /dev/tty".

The previous suggested solution, the aliasing of the Emacs command to
unset and then set the DISPLAY environment variable, is dangerous
because even Emacs may terminate abnormally.

For more info, see info emacs.Command Switches.
