Disclaimer: This is my story, as Tidus says, so I don't want it used anywhere else.
JAK 3 ENDING SPOILERS. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
The name of this story means Unshed Tears in Japanese. It is not a direct translation.
There was a shattering silence. No one knew what to say. A tense air hung around, and finally Jak broke it by sighing.
"Then you can call me by my real name, by what my father named me, Mar."
Ashelin gasped. "Jak is Mar? THE Mar?"
Jak wasn't sure what she meant by the REAL Mar, and nodded slowly.
"Well then Mar, no time like the present." The precursor ottsel said, motioning for Jak to get into the ship.
Jak knew Daxter wouldn't go with him. He was too happy with his new ottsel girl Tess, and besides, he had pants to look forward to.
Keira tried to hold back her tears of jealousy as Jak kissed Ashelin goodbye.
"Thanks Samos... Sig... Keira." he said, waving in their direction.
Samos waved back, and Sig saluted as the ship flew into the sky, never to return.
Daxter looked at Tess, who was now his height, furry and just the right height to kiss.
"Lets go honey." he smiled, putting an arm around her.
As they were about to leave, footsteps were heard behind them, and Jak stood there.
"Ah, I couldn't leave you Dax. You wouldn't last a second without me! And neither would Ashelin." he smirked in her general direction.
Daxter nodded. "Nah, I don't think she would either!"
Keira watched Jak with utter disgust. How could he go from one girl to another just like that? Especially Ashelin of all girls. She thought Torn and Ashelin liked each other, not Jak and Ashelin! And what about Jak and her?
Keira kicked the sand beneath her feet and turned around to leave so she didn't have to endure more torture when she bumped into a rather annoyed ex-commander that was standing beside a pillar.
"Ah... sorry." she began, but Torn cut her off.
"That makes you sick too huh." Torn grunted, motioning to the hug Ashelin and Jak were sharing.
Keira nodded. "He goes through girls like he does guns."
Torn laughed. "You're a sharp girl. We could use one like you in the Underground."
Keira thought it over. "That sounds... interesting. That means I can finally prove myself right? I might just take up on that offer."
Torn nodded. "Think about it then, and get back to me. You know where Underground Headquarters are right?"
Keira laughed. "Who doesn't?"
A faint smile appeared on Torns face.
"Come to the hideout when you've decided."
He left the arena and got into his Krimzon hover, leaving for Haven City immediately.
A warm fuzzy feeling had started in the pit of Keiras stomach. She'd prove to Jak that she didn't always have to be saved...
She'd show him.
Just the prologue. Expect more on the Jak and Daxter front soon.
I am a JakxKeira and AshelinxTorn fan but I thought I would branch out. Not that I've written a Jak and Daxter fic here...
