Jak II: The Renegade and His Lover

Prologue: Fate Cannot Be Changed

How could I stand by and watch the people I cared about the most destroy their happy lives when I had the knowledge to save them? Why didn't I tell them the truth about myself and where I came from and how I knew that the machine that they had spent so much time on reconstructing was going to ruin their carefree lives? How could I let the man I love change everything about him, and go from a caring sweet boy to a man bent on revenge?

Because I had no choice.

I could stop them from activating the rift rider. I could prevent them from going into the distant future, to Haven City, where the evil tyrant, Baron Praxis, presided. But I couldn't, because then Jak would never save his younger self, Keira would never had constructed the rift rider, and Samos would have never came to Sandover with Jak in the first place. The only one who actually belonged in this time was Daxter.

"Today's the big day, Jak. I hope you are prepared, for whatever happens," Samos said, looking up at jak, who was standing next to me. I looked up in fear. Dialogue that I had heard before in my bedroom back home was now being replayed in front of my eyes.

Even though it had been three months since I had been brought here from the real world, I still found it a bit disconcerting to be living out a video game.

"I think I figured out most of this machine. It interacts somehow with that large Precursor Ring. I just hope we didn't break anything moving it here to the lab," Keira said.

"Easy for you to say! We did all the heavy lifting!" exclaimed Daxter. Any other time I would have made a smart aleck remark seeing as Jak had done almost all the lifting, leaving me with only the smaller pieces, with Daxter barking out orders as if he knew everything.

Daxter walked over to the rider and made to press a button when Samos chastised him.

"Daxter! Don't touch anything! Though the Precursors vanished long ago, the artifacts they left behind can still do great harm." Jak, Samos, and Keira all went over to the rider and sat down next to Daxter.

"Or great good, if you figure out how to use them," said Keira.

"I've had experience with such things," Samos said knowingly. He looked at Jak, "I know you can make it work."

The whole time this conversation had taken place I barely paid attention. The only thing I could think about was that the next two years I would separated from Jak, and possibly all the others, as well.

I finally came back to reality when I realized that all of them were looking at me expectantly.

"Are you all right, Jess?" Jak asked me with our psychic connection through his eyes. I realized that these would probably be the last moments that we would need to use our psychic connection, and sadness welled up in me at the thought of losing the most intimate thing between us.

I nodded and sat down, not looking up. My heart beat was accelerating uncomfortably in fear, and I felt tears fighting to be released.

Jak's hand went towards the red button and it seemed as if I was watching in slow motion. Tears finally slid down my cheeks as I imagined the next two years without him. And even if him and I ever did find one another again, he would never be the same, and possibly neither would I. I had finally found my true love, and now I was going to lose him.

In that second before Jak pressed the red button, when his hand hesitated in anticipation, I lost all reason. Who cared about saving Haven City? Who cared about staying to a stupid storyline? I didn't! All I cared about was keeping my friends safe and happy. The tears running fast I made up my mind.

But it was too late.

As I took in a breath to say "No!" and reached out, prepared to stop him, he pushed the button. A device came out next to him and they all turned to look at it.

"Looks like Jak's still got the mojo!" Daxter exclaimed.

"Interesting... it appears to be reading out some preset coordinates," Keira noted.

But Jak wasn't paying attention, instead he was looking at me, and I could tell that he knew the look on my face was that of pure horror, but before he could ask the rider began to shake, the bridge fell away, and the sky turned purple.

"Wow, look at that!" I heard Daxter say.

A voice cam from within the Rift gate and the ugly head of the metal head leader came through it.

"Finally! The last Rift Gate has been opened!" The monster said.

Flying metal heads came through the gate, surrounding us.

"Aaaaargh! What are those things?!" Daxter yelled out.

"So THIS is how it happened…" Samos said, but I seemed to be the only that heard him.

"You cannot hide from me boy!" the monster said.

Keira yelled out, "Do something, Jak!"

Daxter started to press all the buttons. "What's this do? Or that! How 'bout this one! Everybody, press all the buttons!"

Jak hit the red button again and the we were all thrown right under the metal head leader into the gate.

"What was that thing?!" Keira asked.

"Hang on everyone!" Samos ordered.

"YYAAAAAAHHHHHH! I want off this thing!!!" Daxter screamed.

About that time the rider hit some sort of turbulence and then fell apart. I closed my eyes, waiting for fate to decide my future. I felt a hand grab my wrist as we were flung away from the rider, and then pulled in to a pair of familiar strong arms. I opened my eyes in time to see Keira and Samos thrown in to a different direction as Jak, Daxter, and I.

"Find yourselves!" I heard Samos cry out.

Suddenly we stopped falling and were standing on solid ground. I looked around, noting we were in the Industrial Section of Haven City. Jak let go of me, looking around in confusion. I almost envied his ignorance.

Daxter stood holding a piece of the rift rider. "I swear that's the last time I ever, EVER, touch any stupid Precursor crap!" He threw the piece of it away from himself in disgust.

We all heard the sudden sound of marching. A group of Krimzon Guards, led by Errol, were coming toward us.

"There they are. Move in," one of them said.

They stopped in front of us.

One of them ordered, "Step away from the animal," at about the same time Daxter ran away between their legs.

"Forget the rat. The Baron wants them!" Errol ordered. He sneered at us, "We've been waiting for you."

Suddnly I felt something hard on the back of my head, and before I completely blacked out I heard Daxter's voice...

"Don't worry guys! I'll save you before you know it!"
