Here it is! Sorry late again! I hope you all enjoy reading.

"You can't speak to me that way." Karma said looking down at Jack's hand she was still holding. She didn't rage like she did, she only felt a saddening calm as she felt someone's touch again. It had been so long.

"I can talk to you any way I like." Jack's voice was weaker now as it shook, "You have nothing left to steal from me Karma." His breath was short.

"I do not steal." Karma's voice was small.

"Then tell me Karma," Jack breathed out lightly as his body felt heavy, "You tell me. What did I do?"

Karma didn't respond to his question. She just held his hand and looked down.

"So, are you happy now?" Jack asked.

Karma looked down at her hand, she finally has something happy. She missed to feel someone's touch. In all honesty, she was happy but it didn't feel right to her, everything felt wrong. "This is what I cause." Karma said with her head down looking at his icy skin, "I only cause pain and loss. I can only find happiness in another's sorrow and guilt, and it's all I feel. My power telling me that it is good and okay, I feel safe. I am alone, all of you Guardians, Keepers, even the other Fate sisters, and other spirits, make such amazing things happen, and I am the only one that can make one suffer to an extent and, like it. I do not hide in my shadow, I soak up the might of my power, and I become a monster, and I love it. Jack Frost, you may be clever and pretty, but you are also dying. If your last wishes are to know if I'm happy, then I will let you die knowing, I am." Karma seemed happy, she has all the things in the world to want right now. She is able to touch someone and she has the most beautiful mischief to add of her collection, but the pangs in her chest told her it felt wrong, but she tried to ignore it.

Jack felt limp as all of his limbs started to weigh him down and couldn't lift them. His breaths where long and shallow. He fought his body from shutting down, but couldn't. The only thing he knew now was he had his mind, a small voice, and his hearing. "Karma" Jack breathed as the wind started to hold him closer but he couldn't feel it and all he could hear was his voice, "you were so much more."

Then the Northern Winds glided him through the air as his body tumbled back to the Work Shop's infirmary. The Northern Wind gently placed Jack back to the room from he came and set him in the bed.

Karma didn't dare follow, as much as she longed for touch, she couldn't follow the shame piling in her name now. Her mist held her as she looked back up at the Man in the Moon. "Do you see that Man in the Moon?" Karma spoke to him angrily, "That is what I cause! All of these beautiful beings and then me! This is what I have become! I am consumed in all of that rage I collect and look what this is! I am happy with this pain, I am happy with this rage, I am happy with what I am! He can die; he will die, and I will enjoy every second of it! This is what you want! This is what you need me for! I am revenge. No, I am so much more then that, so very much more. I am Karma, and this is my waste land now." All of Karma's rage and fury came flooding back as she roared to the moon.

It was when Bunnymund and North came back to the pole, both empty handed without Karma in their mists, was when they saw it was too late. Tooth and Sandy still had jobs to do, and as much as they wanted to be there as much as possible, they had to fill their requirement first. Tooth would see if she could try and put Baby Tooth in charge, so she could make it back but Sandy would have to wait for the break of dawn to arise and then be able to see his friend.

Bunnymund and North found Jack in the bed with his eyes blankly staring, and he didn't move, he didn't even look to be breathing. "Jack," Bunnymund's voice spoke softly hoping in all of the world, that they still had some time.

"Hello," Jack's voice was soft, to the point almost a whisper.

"How you doing Jack?" North's voice rang.

Jack swallowed trying to moisten his dry mouth and breathing lightly, "Won't lie, but I can feel it now, you know the end." Jack tried to chuckle but it became a dry cough.

Bunnymund came closer putting a paw on Jack's shoulder then pulling away thinking it would hurt him, "Sorry frosty don't wanna hurt you."

"Don't worry," Jack's coughing stopped as he rasped, "can't feel it anymore. I can only hear and what ever else I can say for now. Everything else is gone."

North looked down at just how small Jack looked now, "We will find something Jack, don't you worry." North's voice was reassuring, but didn't know what else to tell him. It wasn't as if he could just tell the poor boy he had no chance at this rate unless she just showed up.

Jack smiled at their efforts, "I didn't lie, you shouldn't. I found and spoke with Karma." He whispered.

"What? She came here?" Bunnymund asked

"No," Jack said. "Northern Winds took me, and she said she was happy and there is nothing I can give her more for that. She was so much more then pain, just too blind to see it. I guess I'm okay with this, now, I can say I tried."

"Don't give up Jack, not yet. You will not die." North said not knowing what to do.

Jack smiled, "I'm not giving up," Jack's voice was so soft, "I am just coming to terms."

"Don't say that Frostbite." Bunnymund said to him.

Jack just smiled as he could feel the ticking away in his chest slow, "Thank you for the adventures," His voice spoke as he could no longer hear anything, "there is no more you could have been for me. Thank you," Jack's breath took over his words, "she was so much more." Bunnymund took Jack's hand for his own comfort in a way, "just tell her that. Thank you. Thank you. Than-" Jack's words where cut off when he took his last sigh. His body now lifeless in the bed, with a smile and crystal tears placed on his cheeks from his fogy brown eyes.

"No," Bunnymund shook him slightly, "no. Come on Jack. Wake up. Jack!" North pulled him away slightly so he wouldn't start beating the dead body in the bed, trying to wake him from an eternal sleep. "It's okay, Bunny." North tried to sooth the seething Guardian.

"We protect children." Bunny anger and sorrow taking him, "He was a child. We couldn't protect him. He's gone, we didn't save him."

North didn't know what to say to him, so he got close to the bed, "He isn't in pain any more. Maybe he is with his other family. Thank you Jack." North said his final words he needed to say wiping the tears off Jack's cheek. "It's okay now, your safe." North said with pain in his heart and wanting to break down and cry but didn't. North closed Jack's eyes, letting all of him be at peace now.
