Chapter 1: Locket
It was a normal day in Haven City. The weather was cloudy, so no one couldn't tell if it was mid-afternoon or afternoon. The people... excuse me... elves walked on the ground, minding their own business. The new KGs were still on duty from morning, afternoon, and evening. The zoomers over their heads were flying like cars in our world. Not long ago, it was ruled by their former ruler, Baron Praxis, which many hate and some formed the Underground. Later, it was ruled by his daughter, Ashelin Praxis, who took part of the Underground. There was many battles and losses, but everyone survived, both Haven City and Spargus.
Spargus was known as the "Forgotten Ones". It was a place where the exiled were in a desert. "Only the strong survives" to what they say. The ruler Damas was the strongest warrior and the founder of Spargus City. However over a year, it was no longer forgotten thanks to Jak Mar. Strange as it seems, Jak was supposed to be born in the future... the time when Haven City and Spargus started, the son of Damas Mar. However, he was sent into the past to be prepared in Sandover village for the adventure that awaits for him. The hero saved the lives of many others and was well known in three places.
Yes, three places. You all know the two cities, but there was another. The city, Kras, was famous for their annual racing competition. Many died during the beginning, middle, or the finals of the competition. One team was forced to win the whole thing. Jak's team were poisoned by the dead dealer and former owner of the bar, Krew. They managed to win the race, but G.T. Blitz took the antidote from Rayn, Krew's daughter, and revealed himself as Mizo. Jak was able to retrieve the antidote and get everyone cured, but they found out that Rayn betrayed them after she left the team through Krew's diary.
Well, the adventure was over for all of them, Jak, Daxter, Keira, Ashelin, Torn, Tess, and the others. Everyday was peaceful and normal for those who took part of the adventure. Jak and Daxter were still doing errands and getting their lives and asses in risks where no one would do. Ashelin and Torn, the advisor, were still in Haven City with minor reports within the city. Sig was ruler of Spargus City and was still killing Metal Heads in a killing spree if he had nothing to do. He also had to be on a look out for Marauders outside of the city. Kleiver was fixing up some of the vehicles that looked like they were taken to a crazy ride outside. The Naughty Ottsel was run by Tess, Daxter's ottsel/precursor girlfriend. The others relaxed or did what they normally do. Samos was in the Haven Forest either meditating or doing something like all sages do. Onin was in her tent predicting the future, but the future she saw didn't look too well.
"Rrrraaaawwwck! What? You're saying that... rrraaawwwck... something terrible is going to happen to this city?" The monkaw, Pecker, asked the blinded wise old woman. Onin nodded solemnly and made signs as light emitted from her fingertips to draw. Pecker watched her draw something that was strange. As she finished, the monkaw examined the drawing. It was two wings, one was filled in, the other was empty.
"What is this?"

"You have got to be freaking kidding me." A she-elf with blue hair and green highlights growled and tapped her foot. Her hands were on her hips as she glared at the broken zoomer. It was steaming and couldn't be used anymore. She sighed and walked toward the zoomer to check what's wrong. For a few minutes, she found the problem.
"Great. This damn zoomer needs the engine to be replaced." She sighed and wiped her hands on the towel nearby. She grabbed the clipboard from the desk nearby and wrote down about the zoomer would be finished in three days. Her garage had two badly damaged zoomers with busted engines. Her tables surrounded the two vehicles with mechanic tools on them. The desk next to her had a lot of folders with files.
I wonder how reckless these people are. This is the third time that the engine's wires got fried.
"Hey, Keira." The girl recognized the voice and smiled. She turned her head to face the yellow-and-green haired hero and her love, Jak.
"Hey, Jak." Jak smiled and walked up to her. He wrapped his arms around her waist and nuzzled his nose in the right crook of her neck. The she-elf giggled when Jak found a ticklish spot around her upper body and leaned toward his muscular body, feeling the warmth. She sighed in bliss as he kissed her neck softly up to her cheek. She loves Jak with all her heart and wishes that they both take a break and stay where they were. Jak rested his chin on Keira's shoulder. His goatee was tickling Keira, so she giggled a little and continued her writing down.
"So... how was the mission?" Keira asked.
"It wasn't hard." Jak shrugged. Keira gave him a disbelieving look. "Okay, it was a little hard, but it wasn't that bad."
"You're telling me that collecting artifacts from the desert, getting chased by Marauders, and risking your life outside of the desert wasn't bad?" Jak shrugged.
"I'm used to it. It was better than facing the Metal Head leader, Errol, or Mizo." Keira nodded, and she finished her clipboard. Jak looked at the results for the wrecked up zoomer and whistled.
"Again? This is the third time this week." Jak stated. Keira rolled her eyes and put the clipboard down on the table. She turned to face Jak, wrapped his neck with her arms, and attacked his mouth with hers. Jak was surprised by her sudden action like after the race, but he relaxed and tightened his hold of her. She gasped when Jak licked her bottom lips. The elf took this opportunity and slipped his tongue in her mouth. Even though Keira had done and felt this before, she felt more passion and love from him.
"Hey, Jak!" The two broke apart the kiss but didn't let go of each other. They glared at the incoming precursor, Daxter, who was walking toward the garage.
"What, Dax?" Jak growled. What a way to ruin the moment.
"Onin needs us. Pronto. Now hurry up, lover boy." Daxter informed while he walked away from the couples. Jak growled even more and cursed under his breath. Keira giggled and planted a small kiss on his nose to turn his attention to her instead.
"Don't worry, Jak. I have to go to get a replacement for the engine. You're needed for whatever mission Onin gives you." Keira said. Jak nodded and gave Keira a passionate kiss before he whispered huskily in her left ear.
"I love you so much, Keir." Keira smiled and whispered back.
"I love you, too, Jak. More than you ever know." Jak kissed Keira's right cheek and released her. He walked a few feet away and gave a glance to the she-elf. Keira waved to tell him to go ahead. Jak smiled and turned back to his path. Keira sighed in a happy bliss and sat on the table next to the clipboard. She and Jak were together for three months after the race. Keira always wait for Jak to come back in her garage. It was a daily routine. Jak goes risk his life, comes back injured or uninjured to Keira, and rests in her home for a few days until the next mission comes again.
"Wake up, Keira. Come back to Haven City." The blue haired she-elf snapped back to reality to see a smirking Ashelin in front of her with Tess on her shoulder. Keira blushed and stood on her two feet.
"Hey, girls. What are you doing here?" She smiled.
"The Naughty Ottsel needed to be closed early today because of the damn drunk fighting inside. So, it would be closed for a few days." Tess explained.
"I'm getting a day off for once. Torn suggested that I should take a break sometimes." Ashelin said. Keira nodded and glanced at the clipboard.
"I'm thinking about getting a day off. However, before I hang around with you guys for the 'Girls Day Out', I need to go to a workshop to order for a new engine for the zoomer there." She sticked her thumb at the steaming zoomer. Ashelin and Tess looked at the zoomer with disbelief.
"Is this the third one?" Ashelin asked. Keira glanced at Ashelin and sighed. It was a long day for her.

"Okay. Here's the payment. Make sure the engine is in good condition." Keira placed a bag of coins on the counter. The owner nodded and took it. The she-elf walked out of the workshop and looked around for her two girl friends. The neighborhood around the workshop was okay and kind. It was almost like she was back in Sandover.
"Keira!" The blue haired she-elf turned her head to the right and caught sight of red haired she-elf and female ottsel. They were sitting on the bench nearby for Keira to finish. Keira knew that they were looking around the place that they never have been in. Since the two of the three girls were always living in the city side, the town-like side changed the perspectives of the city girls.
"Hey. Did I take that long?" Keira asked her two best friends. They shook their heads indicating that she didn't take that long. They continued to explore around the part of the city that was at least not that bad. After the war, many were homeless and lost everything, so some parts of the city took the opportunity to help others. Many of the citizens greeted each other since they know each other around the neighborhood. Some knew Keira by her shopping around some parts of the stores or introducing themselves politely.
"Good afternoon, Keira!" One of the owners near the fruit stand waved. Keira smiled and waved back.
"Hi, Keira!" One of the woman citizens waved. Keira turned her head to the other side and waved back. Ashelin and Tess were amazed about how many elves recognized Keira and greeted her with kindness. The two of the girls didn't know there was a nice neighborhood around the city.
"Keirry's here! Keirry's here!" Two girls and three boys around the age of 5 ran up to the blue haired she-elf. Keira giggled as she knelt down to the children.
"Hello, kids! Were you good today?" She asked. The children's heads were bobbing up and down as their eyes sparkled with happiness and joy.
"I didn't know there was a place like this around the city." Tess was looking around the town-like city. Ashelin was astonished about the lifestyle of this side of the city. She finally faced at the five children that were looking at her with curiosity and nervousness.
"Big sister? Who are they?" One of the she-elves asked the blue haired she-elf. Keira smiled and stood up. Keira pointed to Ashelin first.
"Everyone, I want you to meet my two best friends. Ashelin, here." The governess waved to the children with a gentle smile. She never showed the soft side toward anyone but her friends. She also grew a gentle side due to her advisor and lover, Torn. Keira pointed to the ottsel on Ashelin's shoulder.
"And the furry one is Tess." The young she-elves squealed, as everyone around Keira's flinches, and cooed the small animal.
"Is... she our big sister, Keirry?" One of the young elves asked as he cocked his head to the side and stared at the grown she-elf. Keira tapped her chin and looked at Ashelin with a questioning look. Ashelin shrugged.
"I'm okay with it as long they don't say it in public." The children cheered and gathered around the governess. Ashelin smiled and giggled at their endless questions and new name "Ashley".
"Children! Lunchtime!" A normal she-elf from the entrance of a normal house called out from the front door. The children whined and protested to play with their "Big Sister Keirry" and "Big Sister Ashley".
"It's okay, guys. We'll come back and visit you again." Keira said. The children lowered their heads for a second and looked back up with smiling faces.
"Okay! Bye, Keirry! Bye, Ashley! Bye, Tess!" The children turned and ran back toward the house. As the children went back inside, the mother looked up and smile softly to the two she-elves before she walked back to the house and closed the door.
"You have many people around here that care about you, Keira." Ashelin felt envy toward the blue haired she-elf. The elven people recognized Ashelin as a governess and the Baron's kind daughter, not as Ashelin herself.
"They only recognized me as one of their visitors since I came around here occasionally before the damn Metal Heads entered the city. I usually come around here for mechanic stuff and sometimes getting groceries." Keira added.
"Why were they calling you 'Big Sister' and are the same age?" Tess asked. Keira lowered her eyes to the ground.
"Their parents died from the Metal Heads. The woman over there took care of them as her own. I visited them constantly as they grow up. They recognized me as their older sister and Jak, their older brother." She laughed a little.
"When I brought Jak over here half a year ago, he was stunned to see the kids calling me 'Big Sister.' He was still stunned with the same facial expression when the little girl poked his side and the others joined her. He came over again with me a little later and became the 'Big Brother' for the kids."
"Well, I'm thinking about visiting them on my patrols sometimes. This place has the opposite lifestyle than the others. It could be a good use to get away from all of the noises. I'll make sure I'll bring Torn along as well." Ashelin added and the two friends giggled. The three girls continued to explore the place and greeted some of the citizens. They found a cafe nearby and took a break there while talking about other stuff. Tess noticed something gleaming around Keira's neck when the blue haired she-elf took a sip of her soda.
"What's around your neck, Keira?" The ottsel asked. Ashelin and Keira looked at each other. Keira took the jewelry off her neck and held it out to her friends. The locket looked dented a little from its platinum, but it was still shining.
"This? It's a locket." Keira told them the obvious.
"Jak gave you the locket?" Ashelin asked. Keira shook her head that made the two confused.
"Actually, it's from my sister who left with my mother after I was born." She gave them a small sad smile and felt tears swelling up around her emerald eyes. However, she quickly wiped the edges from letting a single tear drop in her face.
"We're sorry." Ashelin apologized as she looked down, feeling ashamed about asking. Keira shook her head quickly.
"It's okay. I'm actually used to this. Daddy said that she and I are supposed to be separated for a reason. He also said that someday, we would see each other again." She smiled with happiness and anxiety. She opened the locket to see a young she-elf smiling while holding the baby that was wrapped around by a blue blanket. The young she-elf had the same hair color and highlights like Keira that was held up in two high and short pigtails. Her eye color was emerald like Keira's. Her clothes were very simple. A white skirt and a blue tank-top. Keira didn't have any memories about her sister, but the locket was the only memory she held of her sister's image.
"Keira?" The blue haired she-elf tore her eyes away from the photo to the female ottsel.
"May I have a look of the picture?" Tess asked. Keira nodded and handed Tess the jewelry. Ashelin took a chance to look at picture.
"Is the little girl you, Keira?" The governess asked. Keira shook her head.
"No. That is my sister. The baby is me."
"Do you remember your sister's name?" Tess asked. Keira thought about it and nodded.
"Yeah. I remember that her name is Kayt." She replied. The two females looked at each other and back at the slightly depressed Keira.
"I hope you'll find your sister, Keir. Just have a little more faith in her." Ashelin tried to bring the spirit up inside her best friend. Tess jumped up from her seat to the table since she was a precursor.
"Yeah. We'll also help find your sister and give you the message once we find her." Keira looked up and smiled.
"Thanks, guys." Then, the sirens went off in the city. The two she-elves and ottsel jumped up and became alerted.
"What the hell's going on?" Ashelin asked.
There's going to be a similar story to this but with Jak's POV.
