A/N: Well this is my Jak and Daxter story, I've been urging to write this after I rebeat the 2nd game again. I also have read many great J+D fanfics that got me interested in writing a story about them. It's a KeiraxJak story so I hope you love it. I was inspired by the "Back to You" series. I really hope you enjoy this and please comment about it. I would love your feedback.

Lost Love
"For every age, there is a time of trial. The rocks faced such a fire before they were the strength beneath out feet. The plants braved vast winds before their roots could give us life. As a Sage of considerable years, I have known only one such great ordeal. Yet the hero it created was a champion for all time!" Samos said as he recalled the events in the past as he talked to the next generation of children.
The Past:
"Today's the big day Jak. I hope you are prepared…for whatever happens." Samos said suspiciously as he closed his eyes in thought. Jak then reverted his attention back to his mechanic friend, Keira.
"I think I've figured out most of this machine," Keira said looking at the Rift Rider found in the gate at the Yellow Sage's palace, "It interacts somehow with that large Precursor Ring," she said then turning her attention to the giant Precursor ring sitting on the dock with a Great Light shining out, oddly enough this was found with the Rift Rider. "I just hope we didn't break anything moving it here to the lab," Keira said as she sat in the seat next to Jak's inside the Rift Rider.
Just then Jak's furry friend, Daxter jumped up from between them and said sarcastically, "Easy for you to say! We did all the heavy lifting!" Keira rolled her eyes and Jak just shook his head.
Daxter then was about to touch a closed Precursor egg-shaped device. However, Samos quickly noticed and yelled, "Daxter! Don't touch anything!" Samos then went into one of his rant phases and started, "Though the Precursor's vanished long ago, the artifacts they left behind them can still do great harm." At this statement Jak smiled and rolled his eyes, Daxter did the same but he didn't smile, annoyed with Samos' ranting phase.
Keira didn't but it and she noted, "Or great good, If you figure out how to use them!"
Samos then got in the Rift Rider and said as he looked up to the sky, "I've had some experience with such things," he started as he turned his attention to Jak, "I know you can make it work."
Jak then looked around and saw a red gem on the console panel and he pushed it causing the egg-shaped device to pop up showing weird balls swirling around.
Daxter, happy and sarcastic as ever said, "Looks like Jak's still got the mojo!"
Keira, who was interested at the interesting mechanics of the device noted, "Interesting…it appears to be reading out some preset coordinates…" Just then the egg-shaped device quickly shut and a crash was heard. The Rift Rider started up and the back began to turn, putting on the engine. As it turned, a dark bolt was seen coming from the Rift Rider to the Precursor Ring and then it went from really light to a purple glow, and its outside started to move. More bolts shot out and the Ring jumped out of the dock and started floating in mid-air.
Daxter, along with everyone else, stared in wonder as he said, "Wow! Look at that."
Just then a voice was heard coming from the Ring, "Finally! The last Rift Gate has been opened." Swarms of large dragonfly-shaped monsters poured out from the rift and the sky darkened with clouds.
The dragonflies swirled around the area and the Rift Rider scaring Daxter as he said, "Aaagghh!! What are those things?!"
Samos just stared at the monsters in wonder and said, "So this is how it happened…"
Suddenly, a giant monster with several different animal features and pure black skin emerged from the gate and roared with so much intensity scaring everyone. It spoke with much aggression saying, "You cannot hide from me, boy!"
Keira, scared screamed, "Do something Jak!"
Daxter panicking and startled said, "What's this do? Or that! How about this one! Everybody, press all the buttons!"
Jak then pressed the red button again and the Rift Rider shot forward into the Gate and right near the monster. As they went through the Rift Rider started to shake around and move rapidly, "What was that thing?!" Keira said shocked and frightened.
"Hang on everyone!" Samos said.
Daxter screamed, "YYAAAAAAAHHHHHH! I want off this thing!"
A bolt of lightning then hit the engine of the Rift Rider and everyone was thrown off of it, "AAAAAHHHHH!!!!" Keira screamed.
Samos said in the distance, "Find yourself, Jak!" even though he knew Jak had no idea what he was talking about. Jak and Daxter then headed through the light at the end together and we're thrown into a giant city from the sky. Daxter slid and landed right in front of Daxter with a bar still in his hands, as Jak stared on at the city in wonder and confusion.
Daxter, then angry again, threw the bar in his hands onto the ground and said, "Okay. I swear that's the last time I ever, EVER, touch any stupid Precursor crap!"
Just then a man with a mask above his head and a gun marched towards Jak and Daxter with a few soldiers behind him. "There he is. Move in," one of the soldiers stated. The leader then signaled his soldiers to move in and they surrounded Jak, "Step away from the animal!"
Daxter then ran away screaming, "AAGGHHHH!"
The leader then spoke up and said, "Forget the rat. The Baron wants him!" Jak then looked around confused and without understanding. "We've been waiting for you," the leader says as one of his soldiers takes his gun and hits Jak in the face.
Although Jak's eyes went out he could have sworn he heard Daxter say, "Don't worry Jak! I'll save ya before you know it!"
When Jak woke up he was inside of a cell with bars all around, there was a small sink and a tiny bed, he was in there all alone, "What happened to Daxter, and to Samos…" he thought about his missing friends, "What about Keira, she could be hurt or worse."
"Hey, I think this one's a mute, he hasn't spoken for three hours," one of the guards said.
"Well he has been asleep since we brought him here," another guard said.
"Yeah but, he's been awake for like 30 minutes."
"Maybe… I don't know, I can't tell."
Jak just laid on his bed and stared up at the ceiling wondering what he could have possibly done to deserve to be thrown into this place, he had only been in this world for a few hours and already he was in prison. He wondered about many things during the next few hours, about what Daxter might be doing at this moment, about where Samos might be, and most of all where was Keira and how was she doing in this strange world.
"Ok, mute, it's time to change," the first guard said as he unlocked Jak's door and took his wrist. The guard escorted him down a hall of prison doors and empty cells and then into a dark hallway with no windows or doors on either side, then the guard stopped right before the hallway turned left of right and led Jak into the room right in front of him which read, "Fixing Room."
Jak was then put into a tiny dark green room with light soft foam on the ground; the guard threw something at Jak and then shut the door. It was some new clothes, he didn't much like them but he decided to put them on to please the guards. It was a prisoner's light green garb and a red bandana. He took off his old clothes and shows and put on the new outfit. It didn't look too flattering but at least it was something.
He then opened the door and was escorted across the dark room to another door; the guard opened that door and led Jak into a large room with many cells and a giant pit in the middle, there was some sort of circular device hanging in the west side of the room.
The guard led Jak past the device and onto a narrow walkway which led to a strange, dentist looking machine above a torture chair. The guard stopped at the device and pushed Jak onto the machine, he then strapped Jak with the shackles on the chair and left Jak all alone with the screams of trapped people.
The younger leader he saw before walked in slowly down the walkway in front of a larger man. This larger man wore a giant red cape and had a full moustache goatee. Half of his head was covered in a helmet type design, which looked like it covered not skin but pure flesh.
"Hello!" the man said, "I am the ruler of Haven City, Baron Praxis! And this is my captain of the KGB guard squads, Errol. You would be our 17083rd experiment to work on our 'dark warrior' project. Make sure not to burn out your vocal chords screaming, if you have any."
The Baron flipped the switch that was on a console and the dentist drill started turning and turning and suddenly a purple light came from the drill and started pouring out towards Jak as he thought, "Dark Eco!?"
Then the dark eco pouring from the drill turned to a lightning form and shocked Jak, it kept on shocking him over and over again. He was in so much pain it was almost too hard to bear. It felt like his flesh was being torn off by a needle ripping his skin constantly. Over and over again, it didn't stop, it went on for minutes and the shocking didn't stop. The dark eco started fusing with Jak's body and the pain started growing and he screamed out in pain, "Aaaaaagghhh!!!!!"
Teardrops began forming at the ducts of his eyes, and the garb on his torso started to rip, as a scar started forming on Jak's chest. He was constrained to this awful chair and there was nothing he could do about it. Thoughts began rushing through his head about everyone from his old world, everything he would miss, everything that made him happy, all the places he loved to visit, and all of his friends. He thought about Samos and his rants, he thought about Daxter and all of his funny tricks and pranks he pulled on Samos, and he thought about Keira and how she might be holding up in this strange place, how she was able to satisfy her need for fixing everything.
His pain did not decrease as his the flesh by the scar started to tear as well and he was left with a giant, unhealable mark forever. The dark eco settled into his body as the drill began to stop and the dark eco stopped pouring. A voice came from the monitor saying, "Maximum dark eco fusion fulfilled, thank you!"
"Damn! It still hasn't worked," The Baron said frustrated and angry as he pushed the ground, "We'll try again next week with this one, he gives me hope because he is the first test subject who didn't die during the first session of dark eco fusion."
"Yes, Baron!" Errol said quite loyal.
Jak's eyes drooped as the massive pain he just experienced started to die down and he was given a moment's rest. He was so scarred and bruised from that one treatment he felt he could have slept for days.
"It's remarkable how well he is taking the treatment, however he still has not turned so it is still a failure," the Baron said annoyed as he left flicking his cape around and walking away.
Errol then walked over to Jak's tired body and picked it up, "You're lucky the Baron didn't think you were too USELESS to keep giving treatments to, because if he did, I would have had fun cutting up your living body into tiny pieces, making sure you feel more pain than you ever have in your life. You can be sure of that!" Errol then threw his body back down and walked away down the catwalk and followed the Baron out of the prison.
A guard then came in after several minutes and picked up Jak, "Come on survivor, I'll bring you back to your cell, the Baron wants me to give you a reward for staying alive."
They both walked through the hallways and passed the cells and prisons all the way back to Jak's cell, inside was a laptop computer with something on the screen. Jak was then thrown back into the cell and the guard locked the door. Jak walked over to his bed with the laptop on it and thought, "What's this?"
On the screen was a little note that said, "This is your reward for surviving, you can only use this laptop computer for talking to random strangers you will never know or see in private conversations. Just in case, a computer is an electronically powered device that can be used for many processes, however, this computer, like I wrote earlier, can only be used for interactions, you type words on the keyboard below the screen. Enjoy loneliness!"
Jak then turned on the laptop and looked at the instructions on How to Make a Chat Account. He simply followed the instructions, putting in his name, date of birth, and all of the other stuff.
He then was supposed to make an account name. He had trouble but then he thought of something. He thought about how he was injected with dark eco, and then he added his age to make an account name. His account name ended up being, "Dark_."
He was then asked for a password. He had no idea what to put, he couldn't think of anything that he could remember forever, but then something hit him. This was something he would surely never to forget even if he was never able to see it again, it was something so precious he could never afford to forget. He slowly typed out the letters, "K-E-I-R-A" (without the hyphens). Surely this was something that he would always keep precious forever and for always.
Last question was the recovery question, he chose the question that read, "What is the name of your animal?" Easy he thought, as he typed out, "D-A-X-T-E-R."
There, he was finished; after that was all done he signed in and waited for someone else to sign in. After a few minutes without anyone signing in he got bored and got up. He started pacing around the room and was very bored. Just then a popping sound was heard signifying someone has logged in. He rushed to the computer and read the message at the top of the screen.
Mecha_ has just signed in.
