Millennium
Phase VI: We'll Laugh Til We Cry!!!
"Am I dead yet?" Ella groaned after having truning a corner at the speed of light. Jak and Daxter chuckled.
"No not yet." Ella tighten her grip on Jak, he let out a grunt as he truned another corner.
"You were saying?" Ella smirked.
"You don't like heights do you?"
"Zoomers, heights, ecos, Haven City, sewers, Krew, Krismon Grauds, and Daxter... and right now, I hate you... more or less I hate my life."
"What had those two years done to you?"
"Find out yourself," Ella said coldly, Jak responded by rushing around a corner and slamming on the breaks fast.
"You were saying?" Jak said jumping off the zoomer.
"I hate my life..." Ella groaned slumping on the front of the zoomer. Jak started for the headquaters doors as Ella's comm.unit went off, she flipped it open and it began to boom at her.
ANEMONE, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
Ella winced at the sound and rolled her eyes. "What are you mother?"
IF I'M THE KG'S DOCTOR YES!!!!! YOU NEED TO COME IN, I HAVE TO CHECK FOR DARK ECO POISON!!! ALL THE KG'S HAVE BEEN GETTIN SICK AND DROPPIN LIKE FLIES!!!
"Your point?" Ella said jumping off the zoomer and walking over to the doors.
MY POINT?!?!?!? HOW DARE YOU ASK ME THAT QUESTION? JUST GET YOUR BUT DOWN HERE!!!
"Hasn't the commander told you yet?" Ella laughed.
The commander tells me nothing,
"Good point, but... I've quit the Krizmon Graud."
WHAT?!?!
Ella winced at the sound once again. The sound reminded her of her foster mother back in Sandover Village, the way she screamed and yelled.
"I quit."
I SWEAR, YOU'RE GONNA BE THE DEATH OF ME...
"Good. Catzeye, out."
CATZEYE?!?! WHAT KIND OF NAME IS-
Ella walked into the headqauters and saw Jak and Daxter looking at the zoomer on the walls, Ella walked up and ran her fingers along the zoomers.
"It's come a long way since Keira's," Jak nodded looking a little sad, but more angry.
"Do you know where Keira is?"
"No," Ella said sighing, they were ;sisters' after all. "but we'll find her, and the ol' green one too."
"Jak, Michelle." Torn called out as he pointed to his map, Jak and Ella walked up on oppsite sides looking down at the map. Torn pointed to the map and moved around the area of the pumping station.
"One of my old Guard comrades was sent to the Pumping Station," Torn spoke to the map. Daxter jumped on the table and watched Torn. " There's been no word for her,"
"Her?!" Ella and Jak said glancing at each other, Torn glared up to Jak.
"Don't even think about it,"
"En-" Ella started but was stopped by Torn slamming his hands on the table and grabbing the swining light. Daxter jumped back and watched Torn speak low to him.
"Stop that! This is serious, you moron!" Daxter growled at Torn, then pulled a karate pose when Jak reached out to smack him across the head.
"Whaa! That's right!! Don't mess with the sugar!" Daxter grinned as Torn went on, Jak rolled his eyes and looked back to the map.
"This friend of mine," Torn said looking more angry then ever. "has helped the Underground many times before. Go back to the Pumping Station and take a look around. Render assistance if needed," He turned to Daxter and poked him hard in the chest. "Now get your squirrelly ass outta here!" Daxter stuck out his tounge when the commanders back was truned, Jak grabbed his friend's neck and leaving the room.
"Man," Ella said sighing, she jumped on the front of the zoomer and started it up. "I swear, this world is like a big soap opera!" Jak jumped on behind her and reached his arms around her like he did back in Sandover, he pulled it into gear and started to move. "Like, I mean seriously... why do I keep on thinking that Torn's lost brother is Praxis and Errol has a serect male lover that is the Shadow but Vin is still in love him, and Krew and Tess has a serect crush on each other but Tess is only using him for his connections to the city,"
"Someones been watching soap operas," Jak smirked.
"NO!!!"
"She's right, that stuff never happens on any of them!" Daxter pipped. "There's more females in that kind of stuff-" Ella slammed on the breaks and Jak and her truned to look at Daxter, Daxter laughed nervously and smiled. "Joking..."
"Yeah, you better be joking!" Jak said going back into driving mode. Ella watched as the houses of dirt and mud truned into dirt and mud but with water under them.
"This city is a goner..." Ella said looking down at it, Jak nodded but kept his eyes ahead of him. "Too much hurt... and saddness..."
"Can you sense Ecos?" Jak asked remembering what his female friend was able to do back in Sandover.
"Theres the Pumping Station!" Ella said jumping off the zoomer and landing on the wooden walkway. Jak jumped off behind her and walked forward.
"Lets get this over with," Ella sighed unhooking her guns and walked forward, Jak saw the frist group of metal heads. Jak pulled out his gun and aimmed at them, Ella stood behind him as they fell hard. She smirked and ran forward pulling herself up the platforms, Ella kicked one of the grunts that were blocking her way and shot the other. She glanced over her shoulder at Jak as he grabbed the skull gems and dark eco blobs, he stood beside her as they looked ahead at the group of metal jackets flying towards them.
"You hit 'em high?" Jak asked holding his gun out.
"You hit 'em low!" Ella hooked her gun back onto her belt and dive rolled under the group until she was on the other side, Jak shot down the ones that went for Ella and she took out the ones that dive bombed on Jak.
"Man do we make a good three man team," Daxter smiled. Ella nodded in agreement and ran behind Jak dodging any metal heads that came there way and shooting them, dead. Jak slammed on the breaks and Ella ran right into him.
"Why did you stop?!" Ella cried out after having knocked Daxter off of Jak's shoulder. Jak shrugged and kept on moving, he stopped when they came to a cliff. Ella looked up the cliff and Jak could've swore he say a flash of purple cross her eyes. Did that mean she had her 'Sight'?
"What's up there?" Jak asked, trying to figure his female friend out.
"What do you think is always up a dark cliff?"
"Metal Heads," Jak sighed hopping up the cliff, Ella behind him. He pulled himself up and saw 2 grunts, 3 metal jackets and 3 stringers. He grabbed Ella's hand and pulled her up too, Ella groaned and truned to Jak.
"Same thing?"
"You hit 'em low," Jak said hooking his gun up and sliding under the group, Ella stared blankly at him because he could copy any of her moves. She pulled out her gun again and hit the ones that followed Jak as the ones above her expolded into a pool of blood and dark eco.
"Michelle?" Daxter asked nervously, Jak truned back to her as Deathen flew down. She held her arm out and smiled.
"I'm fine..." She said winking at them. Jak walked forward looking at the broken aircraft infront of them, Ella followed behind as Daxter started to ich his ear.
"Why do we have to save a old Kirzmon Graud hag anyways? She's proabely got more facial hair then me!!!" Ella smirked jumping ontop of the car and looked around.
"Chill, you're luck if you get some hair."
"It doesn't help that I'm fuzy!?!" Daxter screamed.
"Yes, I forgot Daxter... even though you're to my knees!"
"You should talk you're up to Jak's shoulder!"
"Hello age?"
"Age has nothing to do with it!" Daxter piped from the ground below as Jak glanced around. Ella jumped down but was blind sided by a heel in the face, she was sent to the ground as the 'HAG' pulled Jak into a headlock and pointed a gun at him.
"Who the hell are you three?" She yelled, she had red braided hair and a Krizmon Graud uniform on, that was TOO showy. She had tattoos just like Torn and was as tall as Jak, Ella felt short compared to her.
"Mmmm... I sure do love a women in uniform!" Daxter jumped on her shoulder and smirked. "I'm your solider on the front lines of loooooove!" Daxter jumped off and smiled at her, while his friends were either stuck in a bush or in a headlock. "Waiter! Fox hole for two!" The lady let go of Jak and pulled her gun away from Jak and pointed it at Daxter.
"Keep talking like that and I'll rasie your voice a couple-" A bulet was fired through the air and almost hit Daxter, Jak glared at Ella as she came out of the bush.
"Sorry, I missed." She smirked evily to Daxter, Daxter ran behind Jak as Deathen landed on her shoulder.
"Easy," Jak said looking back to the lady. "Torn sent us to help you,"
"I don't need your help," she said looking ahead and smiling. "but you might. We have guests," a group of different metal heads started to jump off the cliff towards the group.
"Noooooo..." Ella wined pulling out her pistol and leaning on Jak's shoulder. "I don't wanna..." Jak smirked and pushed her forward.
"Go!" Jak yelled as the girl jumped right into the group, Jak followed behind her as Ella was right behind Jak. Jak stopped and began to shot at the jackets that were over them, Ella took out the group of grunts that seemed to be not dying.
"Jak," Ella said truning to him. "I think it's to go Dark on these bad boys?" Jak got an evil grin as Ella went behind him, Ella stood watching as the dark eco came over her friends. Purple streaks of lightining came from Jak's body, he ripped through everyone of the grunts that came his way. Blood and dark eco leaked onto the ground and soaked in, Jak stopped and jumped into the air before landing hard on the ground. All the metal heads, in the air and on the ground let out a horriable scream of pain as they fell back. Jak went back to his blonde self and truned back to Ella, her eyes were narrowed and staring right at him.
"I hate it when she does that," Daxter groans as Jak grabs her hand and pulled her over to the hovercraft. The girl went onto her hoovercraft and started to push different bottons. Daxter jumped off of Jak's shoulder and moved towards the girl.
"Sooo, sweet thang... watching me take care of those metal heads was, ahh... pretty... exitin wsan't it, sugar?"
"Lust," Ella said snapping out of her daydream. "and a prev." The girl ingored him and truned on to the craft, Ella covered her face with her arms as a gust of wind came out from under the craft.
"Hey sweet stripes! Gimme them digits so I can look you up sometime! We'll party big city style!!"
"Oh Precusors..." Ella said rolling her eyes. The girl jumped back down and motioned to Jak.
"Tell Torn Baron Praxis is planning something big," She ingored Daxter as he jumped back onto his friends shoulder. "I think it has something to do with that symbol!" The symbol laid on a rock, it was glowing dimly as Ella bent down to it. The symbol was a pair of curses with eyes embedded in it.
"What's it mean?"
"It's the Seal of the House of Mar, the founder of Haven City. We're being sent out on suicide missions to locate artifacts from the time of his rule!" She jumepd into her aircraft and looked down at the trio. "If curistoy's worth dying for, you can ask the blind old soothsayer in the Bazaar named Onin. She might know something about all of this," The woman threw down a pass and as she started to move. "Here's my Bazaar security pass," Jak flipped it opened and read what it said.
"You're name is Ashelin?"
"Now we're even!" She said flying off.
"Wow! What a women! Araagh!" Ella rolled her eyes and looked down at her comm.unit.
"Soothsayer, eh?"
"Think," Daxter said falling back as if he was stabbed. "I was hit by an angel of love!" Ella grabbed a stick and pointed it at him.
"Sorry, I'm the angel of death." She picked him up and threw him into the air. Deathen came down and grabbed him just like before and flew off, Jak glared at Ella as she shrugged. "He won't eat him," Jak rolled his eyes and walked forward, Ella followed beside him listening to yelling and calling of Daxter and Deathen fighting.
"Ha! Take that you lame chicken!" Daxter yelled after Deathen flew off.
"He's not a chicken,"
"What?" Daxter said glaring at her. "I thought he was one!!!" Ella rolled her eyes walking out of the Pumping Station. Jak grabbed the closet zoomer he could find and jumped on, with Ella jumping on behind him.
XXXXXXX
Jak entered the place frist with Ella following behind, not trusting a place that seemed… old.
"Cooool!" Daxter exclaimed, looking at the monkaw that hung motionless nearby, "Check out all the dead stuff!" he poked the creatures face, jumping back with an 'ouch!' when it bit his finger, snapping awake.
"Touch the goods again, rat boy, and you'll be," the creature paused to squawk, "counting with your toes!"
The monkaw flew over to the old woman, landing in her hat and striking a pose, "I, am Pecker!" he sighed when the three muffled laughter, Ella moved closer in knowing that a bird called 'Precker' couldn't be dangerous. "Yes, yes, I know, my mother, she was… very vindictive," he gave a bow, "I am Onin's interpreter."
Onin glanced up and clapped her hands together, the sound echoed in Ella's ears as her knees gave way at the sight of her enemy, Blue Eco. Jak noticed this and took a note that she still had the 'Sight'.
"Onin welcomes you, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah… the usual boring salutations," Pecker paused, looking to Jak, "She says it is good to see you again, Jak."
Jak frowned, crossing his arms, "But we've never met before."
"Before… after… it is all the same," Pecker replied, going to continue but slumping in irritation when Daxter cut him off.
"Oh! Oh! Let me try! Aaah…" Jak rolled his eyes at his buddy trying to figure out what she was saying. "she wants a... she wants a yakow bone! A yakow bladder! No… no… I got it! For many moons… she has… waited for… a juice pop?" Precker flew over and landed on Ella's shoulder. "A jewel shop? Oh… oh… I know, she's got a hairball! A hair lip? A hairy chest?"
"Close," Pecker nodded, then snapped "but NO!" the old woman began to make motions again, the symbol from before forming in the air, "Onin says you seek answers, arrrrrkk, about the Tomb of Mar."
"So what do we need to know?" Jak asked impatiently, he helped Ella to her feet.
"She's going on and on about mystical energy channels, evil curses, stupid 'oooooo' crap," Pecker turned on the three again, "Forget all that, I'm gonna sum this up quickly, because now you're cutting into my siesta time."
Daxter made a crazy motion as the monkaw continued to talk, Jak grinned and nodded with this saying. "Onin wants you to recover three artifacts from the Precursor Mountain Temple. Not two, not four, three! Use the warp gate at the northwest side of the city, and bring back the three items you find!"
The monkaw flew back into Onin's hat, waving them off and closing his eyes. Outside Ella snapped back dizzy and confused.
"Man, what a rush!" She laughed.
"Are you okay?" Daxter said glancing at her as Deathen landed on her shoulder. She padded his head and smiled.
"Yeah, why do you ask?" Jak shook his head and motioned forward.
"Lets just get going,"
XXXXXXX
"That's some peeper, huh?" Daxter commented, Ella stepped onto a round disk and looked around. Old signs from the Precusors were along the walls. Jak stood as Daxter went right under the beam. Daxter sniffed at the air, "Something's cooking? Hmm, kinda smells like…" he froze, looking behind him to see his tail was on fire, "Burnt ottsel?! AGHHHHH!"
Daxter screamed and began to run around like a chicken with his head cut off, with that the disk began to move. Jak looked up when the light started to dim, the glass eye began to lower to Jak and Ella. Jak grabbed it and looked at it werid as Ella laughed at the crispy Daxter by their feet.
XXXXXXX
"Wow," Daxter commented running up a flight of stairs, he looked at a crystals and picked them up. "Wow this baby gives off some vibrations!" Daxter rumbed it on his front and jumped back to Jak and Ella.
XXXXXXX
"That's the last one!" Ella called out running forward and bent down to it, Daxter walked up and looked at the huge statue. Ella stood and touched one of the legs of it, Daxter looked at the little gear in the middle and smiled.
"No one is gonna miss this little piece!" Daxter piped grabbing the gear and truning away from the statue, Jak smiled at his friends as they walked forward. Ella made a peace sign that and smiled at Jak which faded, when the statue stopped moving and began to fall. Ella jumped away from one of the rings that was about to hit her as Daxter walked off, with Jak looking at the statues parts all over the ground.
"Like taking candy from a baby!" Daxter called out as Jak was about to slap him when Ella landed in his arms, and a ball rolled by. Ella shrugged with a playful smile and got down. The trio made their way back out watching out for Metal Heads and raw Dark Eco. When they came to the beginning of the forest, Ella groaned and landed down on the grass.
"Please tell me there's no more missions,"
"The oracles calling again," Jak said with a weak smile.
"Meh… kinda fun…" she stood and walked over to a zoomer, she truned and winked. "I get to see you in your dark form." Jak smirked and jumped on the back of zoomer behind Ella, they drove past people in the Slums and water until they landed on the right hut. Jak jumped down and stopped Ella.
"Stay out here, for a while." Ella smiled and nodded.
"My pleasure!" She said leaning back on the zoomer and motioned for him to go. Jak sighed and walked into the hut, Ella heard it boom loudly but pay not ear to it.
Ella,
Her comm.unit said calmly.
"Yes Kloud?"
Okay I was angry and mean, but seriously you need that shot! If you don't want to pass out you have to take that shot!
"I'll think about it."
Ella…
"Who's that?" Jak asked walking out looking at Ella werid. She smiled and shook her head.
"No one important!"
NOT IMPORTANT?!?! OH NOW I AM FINDING YOU AND I'M GONNA MAKE SURE THAT NEEDLE LEAVES A BRUSIE!!
"Hehe," Ella said tossing her comm.unit in the water. "Wrong line." Jak and Daxter rolled their eyes and smiled.
"Let's go find Vin,"
"Why?"
"To go up the elevator." Jak smirked
"No way! I am afraid of heights!!!" Ella screamed as Jak got on the front of the zoomer.
"Too bad, Michelle."
"No frist name- JAK SLOW DOWN!!!"
TBC…
