Dream of Unbreaking
A Samurai Jack/Sandman crossover fanfic by Y.T.
Samurai Jack is a cartoon series created by Gennedy Tartakovsky and aired on Cartoon network. The Sandman comic book series was created by the incomparable Neil Gaiman, and is published by Vertigo Comics, a division of D.C. comics. I used elements from both these stories to write this one, without permission but with a great deal of love and respect. And I'm not intending to make money off it, so please don't sue me. If you want to reproduce my story in whole or in part, please give me credit for writing it.
This fic is rated PG-13 because it deals with the issue of suicide.
Thanks to my friend Val for getting me hooked on Sandman in the first place, as well as a number of other cool things (though Samurai Jack wasn't one of them).
Let me warn you – this is a rather unconventional Jack story. You can cross Sandman with almost anything, but when you do, it tends to take your original idea and run amok with it. That causes some weird and wonderful things to happen.
Enjoy the story, and please review!

Nemuri no naka kara

The first word was "dream"
From the middle of sleep
Which secretly accompanies
The darkness in my heart
