Misunderstanding
Summary: The things they know about Jack is not entirely true. Sorry I'm not good at this.
A/N: First of all, THANK YOU SO MUCH, GUYS! You'd been so kind to me and you were the first to review my story. You don't know how much I appreciate it. :') Another thing, I'm not really good at writing and I don't limit my chapters in words. I just write and whenever I feel like it's done then that's it. I got a chapter xD Anyways, I updated this early. I'm not supposed to update since I'm supposed to finish my thesis paper. But, oh well xD
Jack's thoughts are italicized.

Chapter 2
Jack rubbed his temples. "I said things, huh?" He murmured and looked at them afraid.
"Who votes to forget everything and never mention this ever happened?" Jack raised his hand.
The guardians just looked at him like he's absurd.
He sighed. "I guess you wouldn't like a murderer with you, huh? MIM is wrong about me, I'm sorry I fooled you a-" He was cut off by a ball of sand connecting to his face and fell.
Before he kiss the floor, Bunny caught him.
"Thanks, Sandy" Bunny smiled weakly.
Tooth looked at Jack while weeping.
"Oh, sweet tooth" she said regretfully.
"We need to fix this" North said looking at Bunny and moved near the boy.
Bunny looked hesitantly at Jack's clothed wrist.
"Bunny", North called grabbing a snow globe. Sandy put a hand on the rabbit's shoulder.
"Sandy, ah.. ah don't..", he pushed Jack's sleeves up.
They gasped fully expecting but were all in denial.
Jack's wrist is full of scars.
"Ah did this" he closed his eye letting a tear fall.
"Is nobody's fault. If is, is everyone's" North said determined to fix everything.
Jack woke up in a room at North's house.
"Where am I?"
The room is unique around the pole for its blue theme making Jack double check whether he really is at North's domain.
He stopped to think rubbing his temple. "What happened?", he asked himself. A habit he didn't remember when he developed.
After a few seconds, it hit him like a ton of brinks.
"Oh.." he blinked in realization.
Why did I say that? , he thought wincing.
To think it all started because of a daffodil the old man sent me to pick.
The daffodil...
Old man! He panicked.
How can I forget?!
I need bunny!
He quickly got up. Because of the sudden movement, his vision became blurry and he lost his balance. He tugged at the table to support himself and the vase that was on the table slipped and broke making a loud noise.
"Ow" he winced rubbing his head.
Just then the door flew open. "Jack! Are ya okay, mate?"
"Bunny!" Jack smiled. "I need your help-"
"Ah won't help ya, Jack." Bunny said firmly.
"But- .. please!"
Bunny shook his head.
Jack looked devastated. He looked at Bunny's back and saw the remaining guardians.
"Tooth, North, Sandy! Please help me!" Jack begged, desperation seen in his eyes.
They only turned their heads away from him.
Jack can't believe it. Here they are, doing the exact copy of what they've done in the easter when the Boogeyman attacked and worse plus Sandy.
Don't.
"Sorry, Jack" Tooth apologized.
No..
"No. If you're sorry, help me please.. I can't do it on my own I only kill." Jack grabbed Bunny's fur and pleaded.
"Please, one last favor and you'll never see me again, I'll be gone. I promise" Jack begged dragging Bunny down in a sitting position. He looked down trying to stop the tears threatening to fall.
They all looked depress by what he said.
"Look, I meant what I said. Sorry for everything. I regret everything so please help me. I begged you. Bunny, I won't bother you again. No one will ever cause you trouble if you help me"
Jack's tears fell.
Please...
They all cringed.
"Everything ya say won't change my mind, Frost" Bunny whispered.
I can't believe this.
"Fine then!",Jack stood abruptly.
What was I thinking?
"I'll do it myself! Thank you for everything!" Jack said sarcastically.
I should have known.
He turned his back to the guardians and looked at the bed where his staff lay.
As Jack was about to storm out of the room, Bunny pulled and hugged him from behind.
"Sorry, Jack. I'm sorry, we're sorry" Bunny buried his face at Jack's shoulders.
Jack looked confused. He felt something wet at his shoulder and heard Bunny sobbing.
"Bu-"
"Ah can't help ya kill yourself, we can't hurt ya, ya know that."
Oh..
Jack let himself smile a little.
"Stop it, please. We're here for you, we'll listen. We'll always be here so ya gotta live. Ya'll recover and live, with us Jack" Bunny let go and looked at Jack.
Jack mentally slapped himself.
Of course.
Jack turned to Bunny.
"You weren't listening to me, Bunny", he looked at him sadly.
"Ah know, ah know. I'm-" Jack grabbed and shook Bunny's shoulders.
"Listen to me!" he screamed.
Bunny only nodded.
"Please, come with me Bunny. I can't do this by myself. He'll probably kill me but I'll take the risk" Jack smirked.
Bunny looked confused.
After a few seconds, nobody moved.
"I don't have time to explain, Bunny. How long was I out?" Jack asked.
"About four days, Jack" Tooth answered.
Jack looked at her in disbelief.
"No no no. please tell me you're kidding", he laughed nervously.
"Is true Jack" North said.
"No way" Jack exclaimed.
After a few minutes of silence, Jack snapped out of it.
"North, do you have something that will protect Bunny from cold?"
"I think so" North thought aloud.
"Please get it for me please and Bunny. Sorry but can you get me daffodils in your Warren. I'll never touch them, I swear" Jack said seriously.
They looked stunned at his requests.
"Please hurry. We don't have much time", he looked at them pleading.
"North please get me that thing, too. I'm coming. Is it ok, Jack?" Tooth inquired.
Jack nodded looking at a corner.
North hurriedly went to his workshop and Bunny went to his Warren.
"Tell you what, Tooth. I'll go on ahead and you can all come after me. Deal?" Jack asked.
"But Sweet tooth-" Sandy waved at them.
"Can you handle extreme cold, little guy?" Jack asked. Sandy smiled and nodded.
Jack smiled back and waited for Tooth's approval.
"Ok but be careful"
Jack chuckled. "We will"
As they were about to head out, Jack told her that the wind will guide them to their destination.
"Please don't forget the flowers and do hurry" and they were out.
"Sorry, Sandy. I'm fine, really. I just blew a fuse, that's all" Jack reassured him.
Sandy looked at him flying at his side.
"We really should hurry. To think I'd slept for four days! How could you do that?!" Jack screamed.
Sandy looked at him shock and speechless. This is the first time Jack snapped at him!
After a few seconds, Jack quickly apologized.
"I'm sorry, Sandy. It probably wasn't your fault I stayed asleep"
Sandy shook his head.
"I'm sorry I made you all worry. Sorry" Jack apologized.
Jack's unusually out of character, Sandy knew it and him being out cold for four days is obviously not Sandy's fault.
Jack was exhausted and been rejecting sleep for far too long. His healthy pale skin diminished and there were big bags under his eyes.
It's a good thing he slept so long because he looks a little bit alright now. Now, where are they going?, Sandy thought.
A/N: Sorry, it's not that good. But I do want your reviews. Please no flames again. Thank you for reading ^_^
