Our story opens off the coast of Australia, specifically on a couple of lone islands known as; The Wumpa Islands. On these islands live a fascinating family of anthropomorphic creatures known as Bandicoots and their island guardian resembling a tiki mask named Aku-Aku the family consist of a female bandicoot named Coco, and her two older brothers named Crash & Crunch.

We join these three on a perfectly normal evening with Coco working on her laptop at the beach with Crash taking a nap, and Crunch working on a jet ski near by, however little did the bandicoots know that they were about to get a very strange visitor... Coco glances at her brother taking a short break from her work to laugh a bit at her brother's sleeping habits. "Crash sure loves to sleep doesn't he?" She asked the mask laughing a bit, Aku-Aku chuckles a bit as well as he glances at the sky. "He sure does Coco." However Aku-Aku's happy mood suddenly changes to curiosity as he notices something falling from the sky.

"Hey Coco, look up there. In the sky!" "Do you think it's a meteor?" Aku-Aku just shakes his form in a mix of confusion and worry, "I don't think so Coco, look at the cone around it the object seems to be coated in flames." The young bandicoot girl nods, "Yeah, but look at the colors!" she said pointing out the fact that the color of the flames aren't just a solid orange they're actually 2 colors entirely, bright white and dark black. "Where do you think it will fall?" Coco asked watching the object's angle of descent trying to figure out where it will land. Aku-Aku does the same muttering "I think we're about to find out.."

Suddenly the object lands a bit farther down the beach with a thunderous boom, making the island rumble on impact. As the rumbling stops a now startled awake crash shouts "What the heck was that!?" Coco gives her brother a serious look "I think we better go see what it is, let's go!" She said as her brother began to head to the object's crash site with the rest of the group fallowing behind.

As the group approached they began to notice black and white flames scattered about the area before reaching the object they were searching for taking note of the giant crater the object in question made upon crash landing. "What is it?" Crash asked as his sister began to investigate the unknown object, however Coco gasped in shock before shouting "Guys I think you may want to get over here quick! The thing that fell it isn't a object it's a person! I think they're unconscious!" With that the group does so crowding around the unknown person. Aku-Aku takes the lead and asks "Are you okay, are you hurt?"

However to the groups shock the person opens their eyes and mutters "Who...are..you?" The guardian tiki quickly got out of his shocked stuper to respond "I'm Aku-Aku. Who are you strange one?" The unknown person takes a moment to respond as if thinking it over, "Jack.." The man now known as Jack said in a hoarse voice before his eyes shut again as he falls back onto unconsciousness.

Neither of the group said a word after the albit short exchange between the tiki mask and the strange man known as Jack, How could they? There were no words to explain the situation that had transpired moments before when a strange man fell out of the sky like a comet and crash landed on the beach. If they tried to tell anyone of their friends about said man they would think they were crazy. Coco was the one that recovered first, quickly giving a serious look to the rest of the group as she began to approach the man.

"We have to help him!" She said worry filling her voice.

"Wait! Don't touch him!"

Aku-Aku warned a little too late as Coco placed her hand on Jack's shoulder before yanking it back and shaking it in pain, looking like she had just put her bare hand on a hot eye of a stove. "Ouch! He's still burning up!"

She shouted as Aku-Aku quickly took over shouting back "I'll carry him using my magic, come now children, we need to get him in the house so we can treat any wounds he may possibly have from the crash earlier!" Leaving no room for argument, Aku-Aku's eyes begin to glow as well as Jack's limp body before it begins to float, fallowing the group back to their home. "What do you think happened to this guy that made him end up here?" Coco asked as she began to clasp her burned hand without realizing it. Seeing that Crash places his hand on his sister's shoulder, "I don't know Coco. But I'm sure that when he comes to we're going to have a lot of questions for him."


Meanwhile in an unknown location


Jack awoke with a groan as he clutched his pounding head, "Ugh, what hit me?" He thought to himself as he began to take in his surroundings, he couldn't place it but something about this seamed strangely familiar. "I know I've been here before.." He Thought trailing off as he took note of the thick brick walls decorated with torches lit with white and black flames, eventually he arrived upon a giant dome shaped room decorated with torches lining the walls with a circular table in the middle with 3 chairs set around said table.

Jack approached the table carefully and cautiously, taking note of the 2 people sitting in 2 of the 3 chairs. He couldn't tell their attire or appearance aside from the cloaks that concealed their face and body, other then their hands which stuck out of the cloaks sleeves looking skeleton esque and their eyes which seemed to shine within the darkness of the cloaks they wore. As Jack took his seat at the table one of the cloaked figures turned up to look him in the eyes giving Jack a full view of their bright white eyes looking at him with shock and curiosity.

"It's been too long, old friend.." The white eyed figure said in a calm tone.

"That it has, my polar opposite.." The other cloaked figure says their words coming out as a cold, harsh growl as they turn up to address the two giving them both a view of their dark black eyes.

Jack just glares at the two an irritated look on his face, "You two know full well I rejected your damned power.."

The white eyed figure shakes his head laughing a bit, "You know that is not possible.." trailing off as he gets to his feet, the dark eyed figure doing the same.

"Why?" Jack asked giving the two figures odd looks, the dark eyed being responded then, "Don't you get it damn it, it's impossible because..." He then trailed off as the two of them removed their hoods, leaving Jack stunned as he took in their appearances.

There standing across from Jack were two almost identical people to jack himself, minis the different eye colors and hair to match said eyes as well as jack's own brown hair and crystal blue eyes.

"We ARE you!" The two figures said simultaneously.
