The Rift's Gaze (A Jak and Daxter Fan Fiction)
DISCLAIMER: Naughty dog owns all the rights to Jak and Daxter, not me
Chapter 1: This looks familiar…
The rift gate. What most fans of the Jak series would know as the main plot device of the second game, but what if I told you, there was more than that to the ring of precursor metal. Interestingly enough, you're about to hear about it.
At the time of these happenings, I was about 16 years of age, in year 10. I was an avid fan of the Jak and Daxter series, and I still am, just not as avid as before. I also had a best friend who didn't know as much about the series as me. But he still enjoyed it. He had only ever played the first game. Never anything past that.
After the last bell rang, Me and my friend wanted to do something, as for once in our lives, we didn't have homework. We decided that as well for once, we didn't actually want to go back to my place and play video games, but we wanted to head down to one of the large parks in the area. And that's what we did.
We did swing back to my place, just so we could grab some supplies, just like some biscuits, because knowing us, we got hungry really easily. And we headed off. As we were walking there, we were wondering what we were going to do. I eventually decided to do some exploring. So, we were looking around, when we saw a clearing we had never seen before. We were intrigued, as no agricultural stuff had been going on, and we had been to this location before. We saw an interesting looking staircase down.
At first, both of us were really sceptical about going down the staircase, but eventually we said we'd go down the hole. It was dark as we entered. As we got to the bottom, it started looking less like a dug out tunnel and into some kind of shrine. As we got to the bottom, it was a shrine. A very interesting one at that. Weird inscriptions on the wall that confused us, pictures of some kind of distorted human beings, and what seemed to be some large door in the centre of the room and hanging directly opposite from us was what seemed like a ying yang symbol made of red metal, hanging off some string.
Now at this point, I hadn't played the games in ages, as I had found them too easy in cases, I had completely forgotten half of the lore and backstory of the universe, so I didn't recognise the precursor temple, but trust me it was intriguing.
My friend picked up the red metal ying yang symbol and brought it over to me. But on the way, he dropped it on the big metal door in the centre of the room…
What was under there would change the course of my life forever…
This is my first ever fanfic, so if you could critique me and see if it's ok, thanks :) . Might make part 2 if people like
