Disclaimer: Note that I do not own Jak 3, Naughty Dog does. However, every character I portray that's not a part of the game belongs to me. So NO TAKEY!
A/N: This does have several Jak 3 spoilers, so if you're playing that game, and you don't like spoilers, TURN AWAY!
Chapter 1: More Than a Game
"Well, I'm bored…time to play some Jak 3!"
David went upstairs, his Jak 3 case in his hand. He turned out all the lights, turned on his PS2 and TV, put the game in the tray, and sat down. As the game loaded, he frantically pressed the triangle button, as he usually would do, so he could skip the opening cinema. This time, however, it didn't skip.
"What the crap!" David exclaimed, slightly ticked off. After a brief sigh, he said, "Ah well, might as well watch it…again…"
So he sat back and watched the opening cinema to the game. He saw Jak get banished to the Wasteland by Count Veger, the situation at Freedom League HQ, and Haven City's palace be destroyed by what was called a Metal-Head attack.
Finally, the last few scenes appeared on the screen, when Damas, Kleiver, and a couple other Wastelanders found Jak, Daxter, and Pecker in the desert, barely alive.
"We will take them with us," Damas said as David mouthed the words. He had beaten this game twice already; once on normal mode, and once on Hero mode. But things were about to get interesting real quickly…
"Let's move," Damas said, somehow louder than before. "I smell a storm coming…"
David whipped around, a frightened look upon his face. That sounded like he was right behind me… he thought as he turned back to his TV.
The screen was blank, as if a power outage happened.
"You have got to be…" David complained as he turned back around. Then his expression changed from slight anger to complete surprise.
A warp gate was right in front of him.
"What the…" David gasped, unsure of what to think.
Then he heard something…odd…
"Jump in!" a voice from the gate said. "Don't ask questions, just JUMP!"
David was in a state of utter shock. Someone told him to jump into the warp gate? Into that…thing?
"I just know I'm going to regret this…" he said as he readied himself. He then jumped head first into the gate.
The sensation felt more like what the Rift Ring looked like in Jak II; turbulent and crazy. David rocketed through the rift, trying to keep his control in the strange thing.
Then the unthinkable happened.
A bolt of lightning came inches to striking David. This caused him to lose control and come spiraling out of the rift.
The next thing he remembered was hitting the ground…a rather sandy ground. He raised his head; eyes closed tightly, coughing a couple of times. A little agitated, he said, "I…KNEW it!"
"Knew what, stranger?" a voice looming above him asked.
David slowly opened his eyes and found himself staring at several sets of feet. He looked up at the set directly in front of him and found the impossible.
He was looking directly at Damas, king of Spargus, former ruler of Haven City, and father of Jak.
A/N: Well, that's it for the first chapter. Send me reviews if possible. Oh, and by the way, David is my real life name, but I'm not going to keep it in this story for much longer. P
