Summary: Ten years after the big fight with Pitch Black, he came back and took revenge on Jack. Al Jack wants now is to take one more step.
Jack was hyperventilating. He would never be able to walk again?
"Jack, calm down mate." Bunny tried to smooth him.
"HOW CAN I CALM DOWN? I CAN'T WALK LIKE EVER AGAIN!" Jack screams almost at tears.
North stand in front of him and gave him a big hug.
"It will all be alright Jack. We are here to help you." He says softly.
Jack cried. He had never been a person to stay on one place for long, now -on the other hand- he had no choice.
"Just tell me this is just one cruel nightmare." He cried.
The guardians looked at each other.
"We're sorry Jack." Is the only thing that came from Bunny.
Jack looks at Sandy with hope.
"Sandy... would you give me a dream where I can walk again?" He asks softly.
Sandy nodded and sprinkled dreamsand over Jack's eyes.
Slowly but surely he fell in a deep, peaceful sleep.
"North, how can we help the anklebiter?" Bunny asks.
"I don't know yet. But we have to be there for him. My yeti's are making a wheelchair for him." North says.
Sandy tried to get the others attention. Man in Moon was shining through the window. He picked one of the elves and shook him hard. North, Bunny and Tooth looked at him. He made symbols of the moon and a arrow.
"MiM, Sandy why didn't you say something." North asks jolly.
Before anyone could say something a soft, golden like voice spoke.
"Dear guardians, unfortunately Jack is injured. You will have to care for him, but you mustn't forget your jobs. Jack is also a child and Pitch isn't done with him jet. Keep him dreaming, wondering, hoping and remember who he is. Because if he doesn't, Pitch wins and the world will fall."
The guardians were stunned. MiM never spoke so clear to them before.
"No worries Manny. We will keep him safe." North spoke.
The guardians nodded, no one would fail Jack.
Slowly Jack came aware of his surroundings. He was still in his room in his bed. The only change was the wheelchair next to his bed.
He eyed it over, it looked comfy.
Bunny hopped the room in.
"Hey Jack, how are you feeling?" He asked.
"Fucked up kangaroo. Can you help me into the chair?" Jack pointed to the wheelchair.
"Of course mate." Bunny hopped close and tilted Jack from his bed to the chair.
"Can I see the others?" Jack asks.
"Yes you can ya gumby." Bunny laughed.
Jack tried to take himself to the globe room. It was harder than it looked. Finally he reached the room and saw Sandy, North and Tooth in a discussion.
"Hey guys." Jack said.
"Jack! How are you my boy?" North asked, he was trying to keep the boy happy.
"What do you think? I can't walk, sit in this stupid chair and hungry as shit." Jack said sarcastic.
North and Bunny eyed each other, Tooth and Sandy on the other hand looked at Jack like he had grown another head. But Jack just smiled.
"Come on! What does a guy have to do to get a little food?" Jack just laughed.
Everyone laughed whit Jack and walked (Jack rolled) to the dining room. A few of the yeti's came in and helped Jack to get to the table.
This isn't going to be easy, was his only thought.
