All the guardians met in front of the large fireplace in front of the even larger globe. Jack sat at the window same as always. North said what was on everyone's mind.

"My fellow guardians, I have gathered you here today because there is a new threat facing the children and possibly us too." He paused before going on " Today there was black goo dripping from the globe. It smelled worse than two-year old cookies, and would turn into nightmare dust before it even hit the ground." North finished, waving his hands for dramatic effect.

All of the guardians were silent lost in their own thoughts. Jack turned his attention back to looking out the window. He himself was fighting a battle if his own, he wanted to know more about his past more than ever. The idea of what happened to his sister after she saw him fall through the ice plagued him. Did she live a normal life or was she forever scared by the fact her brother had fallen through the ice? The screams and cheers of his fellow guardians pulled him out of his thoughts . Jack turned away from the window and looked at what all the others were staring at. In the middle of the room, were the symbol for all the guardians was, the middle was opening.

"Crikey!" Bunnymund said "He's choosing a new guardian"

" Oh! I wonder who it will be" Tooth said excitability

Jack got up slowly as he watched what was happening before his eyes. He had never actually seen a guardian be chosen before. Jack gasped at what he saw. The blue crystal, on its pedestal ,opened up from its hiding place and morphed itself. Slowly the image of a girl wearing a dress, her right hand clutching her left arm and in her free hand she had a knife with intense design carved into it. The girl wore boots that covered her almost her whole leg and her apron bearing the symbol of Venus and the symbol of Jupiter. Her face was the last thing morphed into the crystal, she wore a stare that looked as if they were looking into somewhere far away that no one else could see. Her hair was straight and she wore a necklace with the Omega symbol.

All the guardians in the room gave each other a nervous glance. Jack looked at them confused, he had never seen anyone who looked anything like that. The girl morphed into the crystal seemed only about eight or nine years old.

" Now why would The Man In The Moon pick her?" The words came out of his mouth as if in complete discuss. " All she knows how to do is run away from the problems she faces! She hinds in her wonderland and doesn't know how to deal with problems!" Bunny continued to rant on about the girl shown in the crystal.

"Bunny, think about it she did once protect the memories of those children" Tooth said giving him a reason she might have been chosen.

"She also protects the power of imagination too" North added "Its easy to see why she would be picked for a guardian, Alice Liddell, guardian of imagination"

Jack was listening to the conversation, interested in what was happening.

" Tooth could have given them there memories at anytime she wanted." Bunny argued.

" No ... I couldn't. Those children, were too far gone. Plus I didn't have any happy memories to give them! That's why they had been there in the first place." Tooth looked down as if she was guilty of something.

Jack felt that now would be the right time for him to join into the conversation.

" First of all, before we get into an argument over what she did, who even is she?"

Bunny toke a deep breath and looked away as if in pain. " She's Alice Liddell, I'm sure you've heard of her stories before?"

" No I … I don't think so."

" Alice in wonderland sound familiar mate?"

Jack couldn't help but laugh. "That's Alice? Last time he checked Alice was a cute little girl with a not-so serious expression on her face."

" Enough discussion, who is going to go get her? You all know she won't leave her wonderland unless one of her creatures tells her too" North told everyone what the obvious was.

" Why don't you shove her into a shack and toss into a magic portal like you did to me?" Jack said giving them a cold look.

Sandy made a X symbol out of sand over his head.

" Sandy's right we do that and she might take our heads." Tooth said. She saw Bunny and North give her a disapproving look." If you would pardon the expression"

Before anyone could say anything else, a portal opened next to them. They watched slowly as a black boot stepped through.
