Disclaimer: I do NOT own Jak 2 or 3; I don't own Jak and Daxter either.

This is my first Jak fic and it centers on Jak and Jinx, since Jinx is one of my favorite characters.

The Escape

His eyes fluttered open as he regarded the featureless ceiling above him, noting that it still looked the same as it did the last time he opened his eyes. Jak looked around as far as his tortured body would allow him to and he let out a soft groan as he felt his neck pop.

A scream pierced the air and Jak let his head fall back on the cold, metal table. He had heard that scream more than he heard his own, and that was a lot. He had tried to ask one of the doctors that inserted the needles into his flesh once but it was futile, the doctor had only turned away and continued, ignoring Jak completely.

Another scream reached his ears and was followed by the faint sound of laughter, which he recognized as Baron Praxis'. How Jak wished he could escape and kill the Baron and his lap dog Errol.

A few days later the prison had erupted into a hive of activity and his dark eco injection had ceased for a while allowing Jak to wake up completely and become aware of his surroundings.

The door burst open and Jak was forced to shut his eyes, from the light that illuminated the usually dark room. Something moved in the corner of his eye and he swung his head to the left to get a better look.

Before him stood a man, who was rather scruffy in appearance. He was missing a shirt, revealing a well toned, albeit lean, torso. His left eye was closed, but the long scar traveling over it explained that. His hair was mostly blond and was untied leaving the shoulder length tresses loose. He had two long thin bangs that touched his cheeks and crossed his eyes, but were not thick enough to obscure his vision, what stood out was that his bangs were both crimson and there was a lone crimson streak through his hair. He wore ripped pants and old, worn boots made of black leather.

He rushed forward and pushed a few buttons on the console to Jak's right, the restraints loosening immediately. Jak slowly sat up, but the man's attention was already elsewhere, trying to find an escape.

"Why are you letting me go?" a confused Jak asked.

"Were goin' to escape, kid." the man replied in a rough voice. "I've been here for years and I think it's time to leave."

The guy was an escapee, now it all made sense to Jak. The man found a loose air vent a while later and they could already hear the guards pounding on the door. They both ripped the vent out and began climbing, soon finding a way outside.

The light was brighter than that inside and the somewhat fresh air hit them like a wall. The man kicked open the vent, but Jak stopped him before he could jump out.

"What's you're name?" Jak asked and the man grinned.

"Call me Jinx, kid."


So how was it, my first attempt at Jak and Daxter fan fiction?
