Disclaimer: I sadly don't own Rise of the Guardians :(
After suffering through the trauma that is medicine-taking Jack was looking forward to an appearance from one of the Guardians. Soon enough Sandy slipped silently into the room and joined Jack on the bed and just looked at him with a small smile. Needing no further prompting Jack began to talk.
It was 1910, just four years before the start of World War 1 when Jack first noticed the strange creatures that rattled along, carrying humans inside its belly. The strange things had fascinated him and he had been filled with a desire to discover more about them, that was what had led to him being injured.
Jack had been doing his job, bringing winter when he heard a cacophony of screams had split the silence and he could hear above the screams human's crying and wailing, filled with curiosity Jack had investigated. The sight that he had met had shocked him; several of the creatures lay on their sides, with humans that they carried were trapped beneath them, already several humans lay still with all life choked from them, there were a few humans who had freed themselves from the wreckage and were standing around, heads in their hands as they gazed at the dead and dying humans and the smoking carcasses of their creatures.
Jack landed gracefully beside one of the strange things and examined it. It was a brilliant red with several circular objects attached to it (although several of these circular bits were spread around the surrounding area, obviously broken from the creature in the impact.) It closely resembled the carriages that humans used to travel in however there were no horses or runners nearby that could lend their strength to make the thing move. Jack spent several minutes puzzling over the unfamiliar object, trying to deduce what it was. He was so absorbed in his task that he never noticed the strange rumbling sound that was steadily drawing closer; he was only pulled from his inspection when he heard the shouts of the gathered humans. Jack lifted his head only to be faced with a similar red creature, there was no time to move, the creature slammed into him, sending waves of pain rushing around his body as it impacted with his chest, resulting in several loud cracks as his ribs splintered under the pressure, Jack dropped to the ground, clutching his ribs in agony and staring horrified at the drops of blood that dripped from his mouth, and decorated the ground in a bloody paint, as he fell to his knees. The creature that had hit him had rolled to a stop, smoke rising in a swirl from the front.
"Automobile must have struck something on the road it has stopped running; I thought that there was something off about the fellow who sold it to me!" Jack looked again at the creature that had struck him; the man had called it an automobile, his curiosity over the strange creatures somewhat soothed Jack returned his attention to his wounds.
Several pieces shards of metal had pierced the skin, producing the red liquid that flowed whenever Jack was injured; then there were his cracked ribs and a pounding headache to consider, as the voices grew louder Jack grabbed his staff from the floor, where it had fallen when he was hit and calling to the wind he left the humans and their automobiles far behind.
Jack broke off from telling his story when Sandy pulled him into a warm hug as though hugging Jack could erase the painful memories. The oldest and the youngest of the Guardians stayed like that until Sandy's sand began to float from him and out through the windows setting out on its mission to bring sweet dreams to the children.
