Y.Kanis: ^-^ ALRIGHT!! Here it is!! Chapter four!!! ^-^;; I kind of got stuck a wee bit.
Lunar: -.- you couldn't figure out a NAME! -.- you needed Eco-Master to help you out again!! That's kind of sad that you can't work on your own.. Y.K.
Y.Kanis: don't call me that. ^-^;; Welp thanks again to Eco-Master for helping me out with my female OC's name! You are truly a big help!
Lunar: ALSO!!! We would like to ask someone… ,if not a bother to them, to Draw a pic of Salcoran and/or our female oc Aira (I-ra)?? And if you could send it to us! We don't have a scanner and well… the best idea we got is to get a disposable camera and use the funky one that allows you to put them on the computer…. (though we have no clue how we would get one, let alone use it.)
Y.Kanis: plus our drawing is worse than our writing. ^-^;; so if any one could draw them or just one of them that would be really appreciated. ^-^ if you do ( and I don't think anyone will want to waste their time with it) please send it to YamiInuDemon@aol.com and tell me how the heck to put it onto a chappie so all can see. -.- yeah. I'm that dumb people. I don't know how Rocker Baby puts hers on the chapter like that…
Lunar: credit will be given to you. Obviously. We don't steal work… Never will. And if we do, it is unintentionally. (we once did something similar to X-Men and we never even seen the show. Just a few episodes) ^-^ thank you so much to anyone who is actually reading this far ::hears crickets:: 0.0 oh…
Disclaimer: HELL YEAH I OWN THEM!! -.- Not. The day I own Jak and Daxter is the day people realize pigs are from outer space. I do own my characters though. ^-^ If ya want ta use them just ask! Not like anyone would though… ^-^;; ok! I'm done wasting time! Here is the chappie! Enjoy!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Samos turned around at the sound of someone coming through the warp gate. He was glad because the impatience of waiting and the worry for Keira was starting to get to him. Plus the feeling that something was just not right.
"It's about time you got back! I was starting to-", Samos stopped abruptly as he stared at the girl in Jak's arms. He gave a quick, sharp glare at Jak who just smiled sheepishly. Daxter was currently leaning as far as he could on the blonde elf's shoulder. Keira was giving her father a nervous smile.
"Um… Hi daddy!", she spoke cheerily though the uneasiness in her voice was clear. She tightened her grip on the girl's staff that she was still holding. They had been lucky that the Blue Sage wasn't around when they went through the gate. All they had to do was leave a note. They didn't even say a word about the Precursor girl.
"Holy Yakkow! Who is this!?", Samos yelled while he pointed his stick at the girl. Jak looked around as though looking for a way to explain everything without getting whacked on the head. Daxter gave his friend a "You-have-got-to-be-kidding-" look when the sapphire eyes glanced at him. Keira stepped in for the desperate and nervous elf.
"You see Daddy, we found her." Keira stated carefully, trying to figure out how to explain it without sounding crazy. Samos stared at her.
"You found her? Where?"
"In the secret room in the Lost Precursor City."
"Why didn't Jak and the fur ball not notice a GIRL in there when they first went there!?"
Keira gave her father a nervous smile. Jak looked to her as though asking if she wanted him to explain. Keira shook her head. She just hoped her father would believe her. "She was in a casket when we found her… She was just some bones of an elf but Daxter accidentally dropped the jewel and she suddenly came to life!"
Samos stared at her. " I would've never expected that from you Keira. Maybe Daxter. Actually probably Daxter. But not you." He gave her a disbelieving stare. Daxter glared at the Green Sage.
"It's true. The jewel is made of the blood of an ancient warrior. She was sealed away. When the stone fell it landed where her heart was. It brought her soul back. Like waking someone up from a coma. A very LONG coma."
Keira and Samos stared at the blonde elf that had voiced the comment. Jak just stared back at them with a look in his eyes that said he was telling the truth. The Sage looked at his daughter who nodded in agreement with Jak. Daxter was eyeing the girl carefully, every once in a while looking up to give Samos an "I-told-you-so" grin.
"So this girl. Is she- is she a Precursor?", Samos asked carefully. Daxter looked up at him and jumped down from Jak's shoulder.
"No! She's a psycho! She attacked us! Then she went crazy!" The ottsel yelled as loud as his small lungs could. Jak looked down at him will dull eyes. The boy wasn't surprised that he had exaggerated like that. She hadn't attacked them, only threatened them. That was a constant happening for the mischievous duo. Then she just… ok so maybe she did freak. That didn't exactly make her psycho. After all, it was like she was brought back from the dead!
"We should talk to someone who has knowledge of the Precursors…", Keira said as she held her chin in her hand. Jak looked up at her. He shifted the girl in his arms, his limbs getting tired from the weight. Although she didn't weigh too much, he had been holding her for a long time.
"Oh! Sorry Jak, I forgot you were still holding her! You can place her in my room.", Keira spoke cheerily. Jak nodded and walked towards Keira's room. Daxter eyed him warily. Probably because of the girl. Keira turned to her father.
"We have to find out about this girl… maybe I should contact-", Keira stopped what she was saying and glanced at Daxter. The female elf knew how much the ottsel had hated the person she was talking about. Or maybe it was just because he had only seen him once and it was on a bad day… She honestly didn't know. "Maybe we can get in touch with you-know-who."
Samos looked down in thought. "Perhaps… but we don't even know where the loon is! He could be anywhere!"
Keira looked saddened at this but nodded. They had no clue where her old time friend was. She, Jak, and Daxter hadn't seen him for a while. Although Daxter was grateful. The ottsel didn't like him one bit.
Jak chose that time to walk in. He glanced at Keira, who looked disappointed, Samos, Who was apparently having many questions running though his head, and then Daxter, who was fighting with Samos' pet plant. The prize being his tail made him fight better than Jak had ever seen. For Daxter anyways.
"Well it's getting late… I want you and the fur ball to stay here though. Incase the Precursor girl wakes up. There is plenty of space on the floor.", Samos spoke in a voice that pretty much said that he wasn't pleased with it but the arrangement was necessary. With that he went to his own room.
"Yeah, just great. Thanks to psycho girl I get to sleep on the floor.", Daxter mumbled tiredly. Keira brought a few blankets and pillows out for the boys.
"I'm going to keep watch on our guest. I don't think she will wake up anyways." She spoke quietly. Jak gave a look of disapproval. "Don't worry. I'll be fine. Besides, I can't sleep anyways so I'm going to be working on the zoomer." With that she headed down to her working area.
"Well, I'm going to sleep. 'Night big guy.", Daxter said as he curled up on one of the pillows. Jak nodded his good night and laid himself down. Something told him he was going to need all the sleep he could get.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Keira quietly worked on the zoomer, fixing anything that was broken or wrong and upgrading anything she felt needed it. She glanced into the room, checking on their Precursor friend. Still nothing. Not even a sound or movement. Shrugging it off, She went back to her work. Pulling her goggles up to cover her eyes she didn't notice a figure slip behind her. The figure grasped the Precursor girl's staff that Keira had left leaning on the table behind her. Immediately the it grew longer and the curved blade appeared.
"There. That's better", The female elf said as she stood up straight. Her whole body froze as she felt the cold metal of a blade press to her neck. Her breathing quickened and she looked as far behind as she could by just moving her eyes. Behind her the Precursor girl stood, eyes full of anger and distrust. Her face was expressionless though. She gave a quick glance around as though looking for anything dangerous. Then the girl pulled Keira into the room, her weapon still at her neck incase the scared girl decided to pull something.
"Look we don't want do hurt you! We just wanted to help you!", Keira said as the Precursor looked at her cautiously. She smiled softly although it looked like it would fall of any minute.
The girl scoffed. "Stop treating me like a kid. You couldn't hurt me if you tried. Who are you? Why am I here?"
"I'm Keira Hagai. This is my home that I share with my father…", She spoke softly. For some reason she couldn't seem to keep eye contact with the Precursor girl. Keira kept looking down whenever she met eye contact with the other's silver/sapphire orbs. After a few minutes of staring at Keira, the Precursor pushed her to the bed and walked towards the doorway. She just stood in it and looked upwards to the upper level of the Green Sage's hut. Where Jak and Daxter were. Keira shifted uncomfortably on the bed.
"May I ask you your name? I don't want to be calling you girl."
The Precursor looked towards Keira with a raised eyebrow. Then she just turned back to look outside. Keira sighed, guessing that the other's body movement meant no. They stayed like that for a minuets, neither one making a move to strike conversation with the other. It was completely silent. Keira looked down towards the ground.
"It's Aira."
Keira's head shot up at the sound of the girls voice. "Huh?" The Precursor just gave her a small glance before looking back out to the sky. "My name is Aira."
Keira looked into Aira's eyes. Even though Aira wasn't staring at her Keira still felt that awkward feeling of eyes on her. The emotions running through the crystal like eyes were confusing. Keira could see them all but wasn't able to say what emotions they were. Like a riddle who's answer was right in the open but concealed. A false answer covering the real one. False feelings. A shield to cover the truth. Just a mask.
"False feelings…", Keira whispered softly. Aira turned her head to the green eyed elf. Keira stared back at her with questioning expression. Aira just shook her head from side to side softly. "No. Not false feelings…"
Keira lifted herself up off the bed and stared at the Precursor fighter. "Hmm?" Came the soft reply. Aira gave her a tired and sorrowful look. "A false reality…"
In that one moment Keira had felt a small connection with the fallen Warrior. A small connection which instantly faded, like the stars in the sky as the sun rose higher in the sky. The only thing that was left was the small feeling of sadness that seemed to envelope the Precursor.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Salcoran angrily kicked one of the skulls across the citadel. Picking up another from a pile he held it in his left hand tightly.
"That no good brat! I can't believe he survived! Not only that he brought that damn angel back to life!", He crushed the skull with his hand, his claws digging into the skin of his palm. The demon looked down at the blood on his fingers will dull eyes. Brushing it off his claws he walked over to one of the Dark Eco pools. He stared into it, his eyes watching every swirl and turn. His blood colored eyes dimmed and he stared on, unblinking. Not a muscle moved as he stared, as though watching a movie.
"SALCORAN! I shall make you pay for all that you have done! If you think you can walk away after slaying the head elder you are GEATLY mistaken!"
"My dear angel. There is nothing you can do now! I have ultimate power! This world was meant to be destroyed!"
"SILENCE! I will not stand to hear your voice no longer! You shall fall! I will vanquish you once and for all!"
"That's a laugh! I am a demon! I cannot fall! Angel's on the other hand…"
"I won't let you defeat me Salcoran! It's time I've gotten rid of the scum that has been tormenting all!"
"Go ahead and try to destroy me. After all, I know you would want to die fighting and not have me just kill you off. Make this last fight between us amusing. Make my day… Aira."
Salcoran's eyes flashed back to normal. Staring into the Dark Eco he swiped at it angrily, making the dark ooze splash everywhere. He silently walked over to where his favorite skull sat on a stand. He picked it up and started to stroke its head. "I have to kill them. All of them."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"JAK WAKE UP!"
Jak groaned and opened his eyes slowly to find Daxter's petrified face right in his. Jak just stared at the ottsel for a minute, before turning to his other side. He came face to face with two pairs of feet.
"Well. Your pet is awfully annoying… Is it a miniaturized Lightning Mole? Or a Mutated Squirrel?" Jak looked up to the girl who voiced the comment. His eyes widened instantly and he quickly threw the blanket off and stood up. The girl just looked amused at his tenseness. "You should relax. I'm not going to do anything. Keira already explained all to me."
Jak blinked and stared at Keira with a confused look. Keira just smiled and said, "she woke up last night when I was working". She left out the part of Aira threatening her, thinking it better so Jak wouldn't start getting suspicious with her too. Daxter was already bad enough. The poor ottsel was behind Jak's leg, eyeing the Precursor wearily. Keira turned to her side and held out her hand towards Jak.
"This is Jak. He's the one that found that room you were in." Aira smiled as the boy grinned and held out his hand. She happily took it.
"My name is Aira. I am the protectors of the Elders and their secrets." She said with a prideful voice. But something behind the words seemed… wrong. Jak couldn't put his finger on it, but it sounded like… regret. Maybe he was imagining it. He just smiled and walked over to where his armor and bag was. Aira watched him carefully. 'there's something about that boy…'
"Well looks like our quest has awoken."
Aira looked towards the Green Sage with a questioning look. Then she looked at Keira with a raised eyebrow and a blunt expression that bluntly said 'who-the-heck-is-this?'. Jak stifled a laugh and Daxter gave the girl a dull look. Jak stopped giggling to look down at Daxter with questioning eyes. It was unlike the ottsel to be acting this way towards someone pretty. Even Jak admitted that Aira had a look of elegance and beauty. Maybe it was because she had attacked them. Daxter had thought that Maia, Gol's twisted sister, was beautiful, yet he didn't do a thing because she was trying to kill them. Jak figured that the ottsel thought she was evil or something… perhaps insane.
"What?" Jak came back to reality at the sound of Daxter questioning him. He just rolled his eyes and then glanced at Aira. Daxter gave him a funny look. Jak just forgot all about it and went back to putting his armor on. As soon as the shoulder guard was on Daxter climbed onto it. Then finishing up, Jak walked over to where Samos and Aira were talking, Keira sitting next to her father, listening intently.
"Who are you? Why where you in the secret room in the Lost Precursor City? Do you know what happened to the Precursors?" Samos questioned, eager to know the answers to things never answered before. Aira got a distant look on her face.
"Like I said to Jak. I am Aira, protector of the Elders and their secrets. My life duty was to make sure nothing happened to the five elders that watched over all. I was sealed away from the world… as though frozen in time. My soul was sealed away with my blood, in hopes to destroy a terrible darkness. I do not know what happened to the Precursors though. But I was sealed during a very dark and dangerous time. What happened to my people is not known to my knowledge." She replied with a hushed voice. Keira's expression saddened at the pained look on the girl's face. Jak stared silently with a serious look. Daxter tried to not look interested, though was failing miserably.
Samos looked like he was debating on if he should continue or not. Deciding they needed information incase she knew about the Demon that had attacked Jak and wanting to feed his curiosity he continued.
"Who was this 'terrible darkness'? Was it the reason for the end of the Precursors?" Aira sighed at the questions and looked down to the ground.
She took a deep breath. "This monster was probably the end to my people indeed. He was a evil beast. A terrifying demon whose eyes gleamed at the thought of spilt blood caused by himself. There is an insane light in his eyes that are the color of what he craves. Blood is all he wants. He is truly terrifying" Jak stared up at her in shock, his breath stuck in his throat. 'This dark creature is…' "His name… was Salcoran. Our people called him-"
"They called him the Bringer of Death. He had killed thousands and you were the only one who stood a chance a beating him."
Aira glanced up in shock at Jak. He stared back at her with a serious look. She rose to her feet slowly. Giving him a confused look she asked cautiously, though the curiosity in the words could be heard clearly. "How do you know him?"
Jak took a step forward, his eyes holding a look of cold reality. Something that made Aira edgy. 'This boy… is he… could he be…' " I know because I fought with him" Aira stared at him with searching eyes, trying to find the truth.
"Then how are you alive today? I have never heard of another who survived him before. Not even…" Her voice trailed. Jak instantly dropped his serious look and scratched the back of his head. He gave a sheepish smile. "Well… he kind of… dropped me next to a Dark Eco crystal. When it blew up I nearly fell to my death but I grabbed the ledge."
Aira stared at him will a dull look. "So you survived by pure fluke? Or was it dumb luck?", she asked, the sarcasm nearly dripping from each word. Jak looked up at her with a shy look. "Dumb luck I'd say." Aira merely nodded her head at his sentence.
Daxter shifted from his spot on Jak's shoulder. "Hey! We were just having an off day! We'll get him next time! Right Big Guy?" Jak gave the ottsel a nervous smile. Aira glared at what she classified as an 'overgrown rat'. "Oh and I suppose that the next time you fight him that will be an 'off day' too hmm?"
Daxter glared at her. She just smirked at him. "Yeah. I figured that. What you need is training." Jak's eyes widened a bit. Training? From a girl he just met? He didn't know if he could throw a punch at her let alone get into a training session. As though reading his mind she spoke up. "Don't worry. I'm strong. You don't need to fret about hurting me." Then she looked down in thought and mumbled something under her breath. Jak raised an eyebrow, curious to know what she said. She didn't even give him a glance.
"Now. We must train. I know that Salcoran has knowledge of you surviving and me being revived. If we want you to stand a small chance we must have you trained like I was. If you are up to the challenge." Aira looked uneasy. Jak just grinned and nodded his head. The Precursor warrior gave him a disapproving look. "Are you sure. My training is tough. It won't be your little picnic. I don't want you jumping in like a moron thinking he can handle anything."
Jak thought about what she said. Then, while looking her straight in the eyes, something Daxter was shocked he could do, he said, " We don't have to much of a choice."
Aira nodded slowly. "Come. We have much to do." With those words she walked off towards the Forbidden Jungle. Jak just stared after her, wondering if she even knew the name of the giant forest of plants, let alone which way to go.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Come on! Put your back into it!", Aira said. Jak's looked at the girl who was standing in the middle of the river, near the edge of the waterfall. "You think you're going to beat SALCORAN!? You are pathetic! Get your ass up here NOW!"
Jak glared at the girl, a dangerous glint in his eyes. What was he supposed to do? It wasn't like she asked him to do something easy. After all, climbing a waterfall was hard due to slippery rocks. Her throwing a few random things at his head wasn't helping either.
Aira walked over to the edge of the water and grabbed a small rock. Leaning over the edge of the waterfall as far as she dared she dropped the rock on the poor blonde's head. Daxter snickered from his spot on a dry, safe rock. "You lazy ass! Get up here!"
Jak grumbled a few words, and took a step higher up the waterfall. "I don't like this girl…" He mumbled as he took another step towards the top. He proceeded to call her as many impolite words as he could think up. Aira's ears perked up and she growled at Jak.
"Watch what you say. I have better hearing than your average elf. NOW GET MOVING!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jak panted and looked ahead to where Aira was jogging in place. This was DEFINITELY more ridiculous than the waterfall. Actually, he preferred the waterfall. At least he stayed cool. Now though…
"You are too slow! Come on! Pick up your pace! We need to get to the monoliths over there and we are NOT going to take any brakes or 'take our time', which we don't have much of by the way!" Aira yelled towards him, still jogging in place. After climbing the waterfall a few times the precursor warrior thought it would be good to jog around the Forbidden Jungle, then, after a mile or two, she heard Daxter mention the beach, which she immediately took off to. Jak looked around wondering where the ottsel was. He saw him clinging onto Aira's strap, which was holding her weapon on her back.
"Come on!" She yelled as she headed to where the monoliths were. Rolling his eyes he followed her hoping that she didn't have too much in store… He already jogged about seven miles. Even the journey north didn't seem this hard. Reaching the second monolith he slowly walked up the two steps. Aira smiled and got into a fighting position. "Now, we fight."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Daxter snickered as Jak was thrown to the ground on his back again. As Daxter had once pointed out, this girl was kicking his ass. The ottsel wondered how much more Jak could take of the trips and throws.
"I said we would now fight. Not rest. My word has everyone really gotten this lazy?" Aira questioned as she looked down to Jak. The blonde elf just glared at her. Slowly he got up and the Precursor smiled. "At least your persistent. That's a plus. Other than that though… well, let's just say that we have a lot of work to do. Your pathetic."
Jak groaned. Aira smirked at him. Getting into a fighting stance he tried to figure how to throw the warrior off. He saw the perfect opportunity at her right leg. He tried to hide his smirk. She was completely off guard there. Charging he threw a punch, knowing that she would dodge by tilting her head to her left. 'perfect'.
Jak instantly went low and swung his leg out, catching her right leg. Aira gasped in surprise as she fell backwards. The gasp soon stopped and a smirk grew again. Bending her back into a bridge position she placed her hands onto the ground and pushed her self into a back flip. Jak, who was still low to the ground looked at her in surprise as she landed behind him. Remembering that they were still fighting Jak rolled away and got into another fighting position.
"Pretty good. Taking advantage of me being unguarded." She said while she dusted her hands off. She held her arms into a guarding position. "Now, we shall work on your punches and kicks." Jak looked at her with a frown. He didn't want to hit her. She was a girl, and his uncle had told him to never hit a female. Aira noticed his disapproval to hitting her. She rolled her eyes and sighed. "I've trained people before Jak. Mostly men for battle. I have been punched in the face by a giant guard from the royal family. Trust me."
Jak gave her a look before sighing in defeat. Aira smirked. Although she was punched in the face by a guard of the royal home, that guard wasn't nearly as strong as Jak. Something which she was pleased with. The guard that had hit her was a particularly weak one. The afternoon guards normally were. Anyone could beat them, they were just afraid of getting arrested.
"Let's start."
Jak threw a kick straight at her arms which were still guarding her front. His leg connected with her arm harshly but the precursor held fast. Pulling his leg back down Jak kicked again only harder. Again she held against him. "You have to hit harder than that. Again." The blonde elf continued to kick over and over. For three hours they practiced his fighting abilities. Daxter was already snoozing on one of the steps that led to the top. Finally the training ended.
Aira smirked. "As long as we train like this you shall be stronger." Jak stared at her. They had just met today and she was acting like she had known him for years. As they stared at the sun, which was sinking behind the ocean, Daxter decided to wake up.
"Man was that a nice rest!" looking around he hopped off the steps and looked towards where Aira and Jak were standing near the water. Daxter climbed onto Jak's shoulder guard. He leaned as far away from the Precursor girl as far a he could go. Aira looked at him and smiled.
"Funny, you were hanging onto my strap while we were jogging here and now you're acting like I'm the Grim Reaper." She said with a small smile.
Daxter glared at her. "For all I know, you ARE the Grim Reaper." He snapped at her. Jak rolled his eyes at the ottsel's comment. Daxter just leaned on him lazily. Jak looked towards Misty Island.
"How long till we can beat Salcoran?" Aira looked towards the blonde elf who had voiced the question. She frowned. "I honestly don't know…. He is powerful. I couldn't truly beat him back then, and I don't know if I can now." She looked down with and shifted slightly, somehow distancing herself from the boy and ottsel.
Jak looked at her with a blank expression. Then, placing his hand on her shoulder, he spoke softly to her. "I don't know why you hide everything but you don't need to. We can be your friends if you want. You just have to trust us. As for Salcoran, you aren't going to fight him alone. Not anymore at least." Aira looked up at him.
Daxter chose the time to pop in. "Hey! Let's go back to the village and get something to eat! I'M STARVING!" Then the ottsel yawned loudly. "Not to mention EXAUSTED!"
Jak gave the ottsel a look. "YOU are tired and hungry? You didn't do all that training!" Aira laughed as the two started to bicker, Daxter speaking more loudly and more in general than the blonde haired elf. Slowly she walked off to the village, the feeling of being watched by something unknown sinking into the pit of her stomach. Jak noticed her walking and took off after her, Daxter yelling at her to wait.
From the tower that once held the cannon the lurkers had used, a small red dragon like creature watched them with great interest, before flying off towards the north. Aira stopped and looked up to the small speck in the sky that was the small dragon. 'So Salcoran knows… very well. I shall see him in battle soon. Perhaps it shall be our last, now that I am confident that I have the warrior from the Scrolls of the Elders'
"HEY! Are you coming or not!?" Daxter yelled at her from the bridge that led to the Green Sage's hut. Aira blinked at him before smiling. "We're going to try to stay one more night with Big Green? Darn… I was hoping to actually sleep comfortably tonight." Jak glared at the ottsel and reminded him of who slept on the floor with one pillow and who slept on two pillows and half the blanket. Aira started to wonder if they always acted like this.
" Can you please just cook up some Yakkow stakes? I'm POSITIVE that the last thing old Samos made was still alive!" Aira laughed quietly at the ottsel's comment as they entered the hut, Keira greeting them happily and Samos muttering about 'young hooligans'. All of them got comfortable as night started to set. Daxter followed his nose to the wonderful smell that was coming from the kitchen while Keira gave Jak a kiss on the cheek and helped him with his armor while the blonde kept on blushing crimson. After helping him out she went into the kitchen to finish up with dinner.
"DAXTER! GET AWAY FROM THAT POT!", Keira yelled as she spotted the ottsel leaning over to see what she was cooking. 'I think I'll be quite comfortable here.' Aira thought as Samos explained what was to come tomorrow while Jak plopped down onto a chair. Keira dropped Daxter into the boy's lap telling him to watch the 'annoying fur ball' while she finished cooking. Yes. Aira believed she would indeed be comfortable here, with these people. 'The Gods must finally be shining good fortune upon me… after all that had happened in the past.' She walked into the kitchen to help Keira set up the table, trying to ignore the memories that surfaced in her mind. Memories of hard and painful things that she would rather not remember.

Daxter went wide eyed as he stared at the elf in front of him and Jak. Jak grinned, happy to see an old friend. Daxter on the other hand… "No! Not you! Why couldn't you have died in the snowy mountains!? WHY!?"
Aira stared as Jak had to hold back the angry ottsel from strangling the black haired elf which stared at the creature like it was insane. Keira smiled nervously. "Why don't you come with us to see my daddy? I'm sure he misses you!" Aira watched as the two walked off to the Blue Sage's hut to go back to the see Samos.
Aira blinked at Daxter, who was still trying to break free of Jak's iron grip. "I don't see what is wrong with him… I personally think you are over reacting." Daxter just glared and gave up, while Jak walked towards the hut.
"The guy is a moron… Stupid jerk…" Daxter continued to mumble rude things while Aira glared at him for his bad use of vocabulary.
