"C'mon Jak! You're such a slow poke!" A young girl who looked about 10 exclaimed, running down the beach. Her long Auburn hair trailed behind her She turned to see the boy she called out to not far behind, stopping in front of her. The silent boy looked at her , smiled back, her green eyes lighting up. She offered her hand, He taking it and I begun walking down the beach. They enjoyed each other's company. Sure, he didn't talk, but that's what she liked about him. Everyone else talked my ear off (especially daxter) but with Jak... She could actually think. It was nice. She felt a tug on her hand, and she turned to see that Jak stopped.
"What's up?" She asked, he pointing to the seagulls gathered on the beach. She smirked, knowing exactly what he was getting at. She let go of his hand, the both of them sprinting to them and causing them to scatter. They did that for about 20 minutes, just chasing the birds around. Then the two collapsed onto the sand, looking at the water.
"Hey, Jak? I know you don't talk much, but... Will you promise me something?"
She looked at him, he looking back quizzacly.
"Promise me we'll be together forever. I don't have a family, or anyone to talk to besides you."
He nodded, taking her hand again. She didn't know it at the time, but that promise would be broken many times.
(7 years later)
My eyes shot open, the bright lights shining above me. That's right. I was in the Baron's prison, being experimented on. The door to my "cell" opened, revealing the Baron himself, and trailing behind him was none other than my main torture, Erol.
"Well, she's awake. Finally." Erol said, striding up to the table I was chained to. His beady eyes looked me over, mostly at my chest area. I wasn't exactly covered up, I wearing a bandeau and capris. I wanted to smack him, but I couldn't for obvious reasons.
"Erol." The Baron warned, he looking back at him.
"Yes?"
"Start the procedure again. This time at 80 percent."
"But- that'll.."
"Do it!" He ordered, Erol then hit a few buttons on a keypad, causing the machine above me to whir and spin. Then came the pain. Purple electricity struck my entire body; causing me to yell out. It felt like hours, but the machine finally turned off.
"Sir..." Erol said, showing the Baron something. His eyes lit up.
"It looks like you aren't a total waste of time. One more treatment should do it. I'll be back later tonight. Finish her."
"Yes Baron Praxis." He said as the Baron left. I knew what was coming. As soon as his boss left, Erol would be all over me. And I mean that in the dirtiest, worst way possible. I couldn't do anything about it. But now, after concentrating and storing all the dark Eco inside, I could finally escape.
"Well my little dark vixen. Looks like I have some time to kill. Mind helping me?" He asked, getting close to me. I growled, clenching my fists. His cold fingers touched my chin, and roughly grabbed it.
"Erol, sir!" A new voice said behind us. A Krimzon Guard was at the cell door.
"What is it?!"
"The... Other experiment is awake."
"Fine! I'll be back." Erol told me, leaving me with the guard.
"Alright." The guard sighed. I growled, feeling electricity run through my body. It wasn't painful, more like a warm feeling spreading everywhere. I clenched my fists, and closed my eyes.
"What in the name of mar are you doing?" The guard asked. I opened my eyes to see a flash of purple light illuminate the room and my shackles broken. I jumped down to see the guard look at me in shock. I slowly walked to him, and grabbed him by his armor. I somehow lifted him and took the security pass he held. The door opened and two more guards walked in, drawing their guns.
"Drop him!" They ordered, I looked over and threw him into one of them, causing both to topple. The other one then opened fire, the bullets missing me. Except for one that caught my shoulder, and I didn't really feel it. I was only pissed off even more. I continued to walk to him, and swung my foot so it collided with his armored chest. The impact was so great that he fell off the side of the platform. Knowing that more guards were on their way, I took no time to run up to the door, and used the guard's pass to open the door and into the hallway. I heard more footsteps to the left of me, I obviously sprinting off to the right. I vaulted up to the nearby air vent, climbing through it and eventually kicking the vent cover that led outside. Once I landed on the concrete, I realized that I was very exhausted. It was like all the strength left me, and my left arm felt like it was on fire. I pushed through the pain, however, determined to find Jak. I wandered the streets of this strange place, lost and confused. My legs eventually gave out; I falling and scrapping my knees. A shadow loomed over me, and I thought it was a Krimzon Guard. But I looked up to see a man with tattoos on his face, and red dreadlocks.
"H-help." I pleaded before losing consciousness.
