RuleX- Beautiful Disaster
"SAMOS!!!! STOP.THAT.IT.TICKLES!!!!!!"
Ella laughed kicking her feet, Samos growled pushing a big amount of Green Eco into her body making her scream. "SAMOS!!!! YOU BASTARD!!!!" Ella screamed as Samos rolled his eyes, cutting the bandage at the seems; Ella groaned touching her stomach. "I feel like a mummy!" Her stomach was covered in a huge bandage going from her breast to her wasit, she growled as Jak and Daxter chuckled.
"Maybe if you weren't so willing to jump into danger, I would have to wrap you up like that ever second." Ella rolled her eyes looking at her nails.
"But it's my nature!" Samos rolled his eyes towards Jak as Precker coughed lightly.
"Onin says there are strange forces at work. Fate has been twisted by something more powerful then anything she has ever seen in her many years," the monkaw paused to let out a squawk, "Something now awakes deep in the catacombs, caused by Errol's alliance with the Dark Makers!"
"Let me guess," Daxter said, in a mocking voice just like Precker. "You blow hards want us to go down there, correct?"
Samos growled. "The best access to the catacombs is on the Metal Head side of the city."
"Sometimes... I really hate you guys."
"Onin says she sees your fate,turning black with uncertainty. Onin says it will be very dangerous indeed. Onin says Pecker will escort you through the catacombs and-" the Monkaw gave a loud squawk, "What?! What did you say?!"
"You will be Onin's eyes, and Jak's wisdom. You must do this!"
The bird gave a groan. "Okay, fine! But I am gone the moment that things get sticky!"
"That's all we ask!" Ella chuckled jumping up then whincing holding her stomach.
"You three, get to the catacomb entrance and take care of business. I'll meet you there when the coast is clear!"
"Deal." Jak and Ella said at the same time, bolting out of the tent towards the Metal Head Section of the city. They both pulled out their guns looking to each other smirking.
"You watch my back?" Jak questioned.
"And you watch mine." Ella winked.
Daxter sighed. "Why is this going to go wrong... and I'll find myself screaming like a sussy?"
TEN MINTUES LATER...
"METAL HEEEEEEAD!!!! WE'RE GOING TO DIE!!!!" Daxter shouted diving behind Ella's head as it shot down at them. She reloaded her gun as Jak covered her back, shooting glowing metal heads in the dark wasn't a piece of cake lately. Both were bleeding a bit as the metal head fell to the ground dead, she reloaded her gun just in time to shot down the other metal head coming up behind him.
"I love this!" Ella shouted shooting at the metal grunts coming at them, Daxter glared at her as Jak lifted her up and flew over the gap in the ground. Landing with a thump, Precker paced around in a cricle muttering under his breath about how much he hated teenagers.
"Where have you been?!" Pecker demanded, "I've molted three times already just waiting for you!"
"Sorry," Ella smirked hooking her gun up to her belt. "We only had blood trust, eco crazy... Metal Heads to deal with."
Precker ingored her, "Onin says we must get through the palace ruins, but I think-" his eyes went to something behind Jak, "Uh oh..." He flew up and away from the group as they turned. Two Dark Maker Satellites floated close to them.
Daxter swallowed hard, "Jak, let me just say, before it's all over... riding on your shoulder, although it is kinda bony and uncomfortable, well... you've been a good pal, you too Michelle," Jak pulled Ella closer to him as they hoovered closer, she felt his hand on the small of her back as Daxter sunk down below his shoulder.
"You too, Dax, Michelle... these adventures... they've been great..."
"Jak..." Ella muttered as the Satellites zoomed in for the kill, at the last second, Jak pushed Ella to the ground covering her. A sudden exploison from behind them made Ella scream when the Satellites were destoryed, Jak turned to look behind him as a car slammed on it's gas and stopped. Damas popped up hands on the cage of it.
"Someone call for an army?"
"Damas..." Ella grinned as Jak pulled her up.
The teens walked towards the car smirking. "You're a long way from the desert. I thought you said a smart warrior never takes his opponent head on?"
"That depends on how hard your skull is. I'd say you and I are both rather head strong." Ella smirked as Jak grabbed her arm and sat her down on his lap, she gave a low growl moving into the back as Damas sat down beside them.
"Let's finsh this,"
"For good." Ella and Daxter said together as the gas was slammed on, taking no pity on the metal heads and Dark Markers around them. There were a couple times where they were stuck and about to be killed when a bomb landed on the Metal Head or Dark Marker, when they finally came to the last tower. The car ran it over making the gate back at the old section turn off, racing towards it Metal Heads and Dark Markers tried to stop them again. Slamming on the breaks the car stopped everyone inside of it jerking forward smirking at each, they finally saw them. The Catacombs to the Precusors...
"Boo yah!" Ella shouted, she looped her arms around Jak's shoulders. "That's my boys!!!"
"Good driving, now get down there an-" The group turned when they heard a boom land behind them making the car go flying into the air, it set on fire as Jak was thrown out of the car when it landed on the ground. Shaking his head he stood looking around for everyone esle, he couldn't see Ella or Damas. He put a hand to his head trying to stay awake after that bomb, walking around the car he frooze at the sight.
Damas coughed as Jak ran up to him, trying to lift up the car. "Damn it!!!!" Jak growled. "Michelle! Come help me!"
"Not bad driving... kid. It was a good fight..." he gave a cough, his body draining of his very soul. "And a good day to die. I'm very proud... to have been by your side in the end. This world is not yet out of heroes..."
"We did well together," Jak rested his hand on his chest, moving to get up. "Don't move, I'll-"
"Please," Damas' hand grabbed his, "promise me one thing. Promise me you'll find my son, Mar. You'll know him, when you see this," he pressed something into his hand, "he's wearing an amulet just like it..."
Jak lifted the amulet, his eyes widen at the symbol. He remember the child holding onto Ella's chest for dear life as the group ran up the ramp towards Vin's place. The child's blonde hair with green roots and big blue eyes watching him.
"A symbol of our lineage with the great house of Mar... Save the people, Jak. They need you..." The words hung in the air as Damas began a soul of the past laying in a great hero's arms, Jak licked his lips as Daxter appeared with horror in his eyes.
"Father..."
"Jak..." Jak heard his name said softly said by a female but he didn't look up.
"Yes," Jak's gaze shifted up when he heard a male voice, his eyes soon narrowed when Veger stood with one arm around Ella's chest holding a gun to her head. "you were that child. I took you from Damas, hoping to harness your eco powers for my experiments. Then I lost you to the Underground," He notice Jak standing, anger boiling under his skin.
"Jak... clam down," Ella shouted.
"You seem upset. Did I tell you too late? You were the son of the great warrior Damas. Oh... and he never knew... how delightful."
"Stop it!" Ella shouted slamming her foot down on his own foot, Veger threw her to the ground pointing the gun at her.
"I've had enough of you," His anger and fury turned dangerous. "Say hello to Damas for Jak!"
Jak screamed as he bolted up, Dark eco sparking around him, "VEGER!"
"Thank you for opening the door to the Precursors," the count motioned to the subrails that had been uncovered, "Don't worry, I'll be back to put you out of your misery." He bent down grabbing Ella's arm. "And when, I become the most powerfulest being on this planet... I'll need a Queen."
"Excuss me?" Ella shouted, Veger jumped into one of the subtrails and moved towards the inside of the earth. She looked back up seeing Jak and Daxter diseaper, glaring back at Veger he smirked slamming on the gas and flying faster and faster. Ella sat up on her seat, her hair blowing infront of her face. Damas was Jak's father, Jak was Mar... even though that made no sense... Jak was still Mar. Ella put her hands to her head, she could feel the red eco in her body running all around her body, racing, beating, changing.
"What's happening to me..." Ella muttered looking at her hands, looking back up she saw her hair was getting longer and growing darker. She closed her eyes trying to figure something out, the something that was happening in her body. The car suddenly jerked to a stop as Veger jumped out, he grabbed her arm but pulled back.
"What the..." Ella stepped out holding her gun out to him.
"Not this time, you will not-" Ella held her chest, feeling something powerful beating faster and faster in her very soul. She fell to her knee trying to keep her cool, her clothe had fallen off; letting her brown hair fall infront of her face. Someone's hand touched her back as the Precusors started talking, she shifted her weight trying to stand up on her feet but only falling back on her but. She watched as Jak walked forward toward a rising stool.
"Greetings, great warrior, before it is too late, you must power up the planets defense system." Jak placed the Time Map Seem gave them down on the stool, two eco gun started to charge, one light and the other dark. "The eco sphere has begun it's energy conversion. It will take some time for the weapon to fully charge." A Precursor appeared before the oracle, along with a beam of light, "You have proven your worth, warrior. We grant you the gift of evolution... the honor of becoming one of us."
"Step aside!" Veger came around the corner aiming his gun at Jak as he approached, "I will be the one who evolves into a Precursor. The right is mine!"
"Be careful what you wish for..."
The light picked up Veger, Jak looked away from him as Veger dropped back down. He chuckled as his words leaked out of his mouth. "It is done. Don't worry Jak. It is for the greater good that I assume this role."
"Even now, it may be too later. If Errol awakens the dark ship's cargo, all will be lost."
"Listen glow boy," Daxter hopped down from Jak's shoulder, "we've been doing all your dirty work while you slept in the stars, so stuff it!"
"Inefficient, I told you we needed a back up hero. We should've gone with plan b!!!" the being was suddenly thrown around, "Ow! Hey! Cut it out!" The orcale started to open slowly, a bright light came from it as the group covered their eyes. Inside there was... no it couldn't be...? "We are unhappy with your performance. If you had been a true hero, you would have stopped Errol by now!" Three, fuzy, orange, ottsels turned sensing someone watching them.
Veger dropped his cane out of shock, Ella brust into laughter. Jak voicing their thoughts into three words, "Oh my god."
The main ottsel, a chubbier one, held the microphone in front of his mouth as he turned, "Ah, yes, well... now we are even mooooore angry... and ah... we order you to avert your eyes or we will... um..." the ottsel frowned, tossing the microphone away, "Oh, bother."
"They... look like me?" Daxter questioned, head tilted to the side. Ella still laughing as they floated out over to the group.
"Not what you expected?"
"Yeah, we like get that a lot!" A surfer style ottsel laughed.
Jak rumbed his eyes, "Don't look so upset. If you knew we Precursors were a bunch of little fuzzy rats, would you worship us? Could we run the universe?"
"Not possible, buddy!"
"So, we fluff up the myth... a bit."
"Then we get the respect we deserve!" A dumb osstel laughed.
"You idiots!" Veger shouted, waving his gun around, "Get down from there and stop defiling that glorious machine!" the count gasped when he was suddenly thrown backwards, held up by a red barrier of sorts. The ottsel leader pulled his staff back.
"Do not let our size fool you. We are the most powerful beings in the universe."
"We are?" The dummy clapped.
"Shhhh!"
Jak frowned, "Why does Daxter look like-"
"Ah yes. All eco contains the source of our essence, our... code, so to speak. When Daxter touched the dark eco, he was actually blessed when he thought he was cursed."
"Wahoo!" Daxter leaped into the air, "I'm a Precursor! I'm a Precursor, I'm a Precursor! Hey, wait a minute!" he pointed at the others, "They have pants!"
"ADD," Ella groaned as Jak helped her up, the leader osstel glanced to her eyes widening.
"These creatures are the great Precursors?!" Veger sighed in relief, "And I wanted to evolve into... NO!" the count tried to struggle away as the change came, his body shrinking to that of an ottsels.
Daxter smirked, "A little drafty, isn't it?"
"Could that be..." The surfer muttered to the leader, the leader nodded stepping forward a bit.
"Young one, do you know of a place called Ironside?" She rasied her eyebrow to him as Jak shook his head, the leader nodded waving his staff. "Say what the undead sings..."
"What?" Jak growled as Ella let go of him walking forward towards them.
"Where has my heart gone uneven dream for the real world, a lie, I want to go back to... believeing in everything or nothing at all. And if you need to leave the world you live... please give me a kiss goodbye..." The Precusors smiled.
"Yup she's one of them," Ella stepped back holding her head, Jak grabbed her arms as she was about to fall.
"What?"
"Anyways," The leader said trying to get them back on topic. "The only way to ensure that Errol will not awaken the ships cargo is to go there yourself and stop him, we will send you there from here."
"But the weapon-"
"Chill out, buddy! You should have mondo minutes to go there and get back here pronto. Way before-"
"Hopefully before-"
"Baboom! Oh yeah hehe!"
Jak nodded, grabbing Ella's wrist he moved towards the portal behind him. "Let's move!"
"JAAAAAK!!!"
The leader truned to the others, once he was gone. "You idiots! I told you we needed a plan b!"
--X--X--
Jak slammed on his breaks, out of breath, glancing around he grabbed Ella's wrist pulling her onto the elevator infront of him. She didn't say anything as he looked to his map on the comm.unit, they were getting close to the Dark Markers. Daxter tapped his fingers on Jak's head as they got closer, Ella didn't look to either of them as she bit her nails; a nervous habit. The world's last day was at hand, if they didn't stop Errol here.
The door opened wide a Dark portal behind them as they stepped out, Errol was pacing around something with Dark Eco filling the air. The group bolted forward eyes locked on Errol, Errol turned face pale as he saw them.
"If these nasty things ever wake up, the planets finished!"
"Anemone..." Errol growled. "What will it take you for you to die?" Jak glanced back at Ella as her eyes went dark with anger and hate.
"When I kick your sorry ass from here to kingdom come." Errol brushed off what she said turning towards the Dark Markers.
"With all of these Dark Makers at my command, just think what I could do!"
"You're through Errol!" Jak growled, Daxter jumped off his shoulder and onto Ella's. "Even if we both die!" the blonde shouted as he ran forwards, tackling the cyborg off the edge. Errol floated back up with jet packs while Jak fell towards his death.
Daxter leaped off of Ella's shoulder running forward to the egde. "Jak? JAK!!"
Light and Dark finally ready to destory the Dark Markers once and for all, they aimmed and fired cutting their emeny in half.
Ella yanked Daxter away from the egde and started to run but it was pointless, she fell to the ground as the egde broke off sliding towards the egde. The two didn't notice Jak flying up in his light form grabbing them before they fell.
"Let's go!" Jak shouted picking up Ella, ingoring her squeak and shouting at him to watch out for any of the platform that was coming at them. Jumping into the teleporter Jak heard a scream of someone he didn't know...
--X--X--
Sig, Ashelin, Precker and Samos all walked out seeing an object fall to the earth, burning and on fire. They glanced to the Sand Shark when they heard a thump, Daxter slid across the sand as Jak landed on Ella. She groaned shoving him off and rolling onto her stomach, Daxter jumped up cheering; he spun like a girl.
"We did it! Woohoo!"
"Not yet," The male teen growled standing up pulling the now brunette girl up with him.
The Dark Marker stood, moving slowly towards the city of sand. Daxter's mouthed dropped and his right eye twitched.
"You will all die at my hand!" Errol shouted in a booming voice.
"THIS GUY JUST WON'T QUIT!!!!!" Daxter shouted, very annoyed and pissed.
"It's headed for the city!" Jak stood, he looked behind him at the Sand Shark and the Dune Hoper. "We've gotta defend it..." he glanced down, fists clenched, "for Damas..."
"Damas..." Ella echoed jumping into the Dune Hopper, she flipped down her goggles pointing at Errol. "Let's give him hell, for the last time."
"Michelle," Jak growled. "You're not fight Errol," Ella smirked.
"Damas, said make war your own..." She gripped the wheel. "And he's where my war ends." She slammed on the gas racing towards the Dark Marker, Jak gave a low growl jumping into the Sand Shark.
"The last charge of the dark and light brigade!" Daxter cheered from the car, "Let's do it!" The Sand Shark drove right out of the city, Jak scaned the area for Ella as he saw the Dark Marker stumbled. Looking to the right he saw the Dune Hopper shooting at the legs of it, taking out very needed green eco supply. Driving towards the left side, he shoot at the supply as his comm.unit started shouting again.
:::Jak! Watch out, Marauder are coming!!!
Jak looked behind him and saw the cars of the Marauders racing towards them, turning to the left one of the cars slammed right into one of the spider like legs of the Dark Marker taking out the green eco pods. The Dark Marker started to shake before the control pad snapped off, flying up into the air and falling a couple miles away from the city. Jak saw the Dune Hopper was already there waiting for him, Ella jumped out loading her gun about to jump onto it. Jak yanked her back.
"What are you doing?"
"Like hello! Errol's up there waiting for us! We have to hurry!"
Daxter gave a low growl but didn't say anything. "We as in me and Daxter are going up there, a certain girl name Michelle isn't going."
"Hell ya, I'm going! You can-" Ella stopped midway as Jak curled his hand into a fist and shoved it into her stomach, making her fall to the ground. He swallowed backing up from her as she hugged herself tight. "Damn it Jak, you bastard..." She coughed punching her own fist into the ground.
"Deal wit it." Jak growled jumping onto the Dark Marker, she watched him run up it as she stood shaking. Now she'll know how Errol fells when Jak get him, stumbling back to Spargus she could hear Errol shout at Jak. Ashelin ran past her as Sig ran up to her.
"Chilli pepper! What happened?"
"Jak... he punched me... he didn't want me to go fright Errol..." Sig smirked helping her up, he shook his head still smiling as she trembled when the wind came by her.
"Man, that boy's got it bad..." Sig's smirk turned to a frown. "But I never thought he would use punching as something to make you stay..." Ella looked at him strange as Ashelin shouted something, running back to where Ashelin stood she saw an expolsion come from it. The Dark Marker stopped moving as Keira walked up behind her, Ella stepped forward watching it; it was dead.
"He did it!" Ella shouted leaping into the air and throwing her arms around Keira, both girls started jumping around as both males came down. The years Errol had made her go insane, all gone in one gun shot -well a couple, but who's counting? Daxter gave a smiple thumbs up as he walked towards the group of friends that were watching and waiting, Ashelin stepped forward as Jak stopped infront of her. He nodded to her giving her a small hug before walking towards Ella.
"Hey brat," He smirked rumbing her head, she gave a low growl slapping him across the face.
"That's for punching me!" She shouted stomping her foot and stomping back to the city. Jak sighed as Daxter rolled his eyes.
"You can save the world with her, you can agure with her... but you can't love her." Sig chuckled, Jak glared up to Sig as he shrugged.
--X--X--
"Thank you brave people of this planet," the Ottsel Leader was smiling widely as he addressed the people, Onin, Samos and Keira all stood at one side of the area while, Ashelin, Torn, and Seem stood at the other. Sig sat on the throne where Damas used to sit as Ella sat on the bench next to Tess and Daxter. "Onin, Samos and all... your strength and wisdom in these dark times give us reason to fight on."
"My life's work, it turns out, was spent searching for a bunch of furballs."
"Yeah," Ella said leaning back winking at Samos. "You could've asked Daxter how his day was instead."
Pecker grinned, "Onin says it is a great day for the universe!"
The Ottsel leader turned to Jak, "Jak, you are the greatest of heroes! You have turned the tide against the Dark Makers, and together, we will win this war!"
The surfer ottsel spoke up, "But dude, there are like, way more challenges in the future!"
"Duh... or was it the past?
"Yes, yes!" the leader huffed, "I was getting to that!"
"More adventures?" Jak smirked, crossing his arms, "Were have I heard that before?"
"We need heroes like you to help us protect the universe, Jak."
"Then you can call me by my first name," he glanced down briefly, then back at the ottsels, "by what my father called me, Mar."
"Wait," Ashelin started, looking to Seem, "Jak is Mar? The Mar?" the monk nodded, earning a surprised look from the baroness.
"Come then Mar, no time like the present."
Jak stepped forwards, then stopped, looking back at his friends, "You coming, Dax?"
"Naw... I got all I need right here, baby. But if you need me, and I know you will! Ah..." the ottsel lay back against Tess' leg, "you know where to find me, 'ight?"
"Oh, Daxter! My little hero!" Tess cooed, rubbing his stomach.
"We owe you much, Daxter, for all you've done. For your bravery in the face of incredible danger, we shall grant you your deepest desire."
Daxter hopped up, considering the question for a moment before smirking, "Ya know... I could really use a snazzy pair of pants... like yours!"
The ottsel leader pointed his staff at him, a light flying over and forming into a pair of pants on the ottsels body.
"Wow!" Tess giggled, "Those are sharp. I wish I had a pair just like that!"
"Be careful what you wish for..." the leader snickered, pointing to the girl. Tess bounced, an ottsel when she dropped back to the table. Ella jumped off the table as Daxter helped her up whistling.
"Don't worry honey, you get used to it. Oh, and you may want to shave some parts," he pulled her closer, "Trust me on that."
"Michelle?" Jak called out as she turned to leave. "You wanna come?" Ella huffed crossing her arms.
"Nah, I like it down here," She sat down on the ground smirking. "On the ground, not in the air... AND not moving!" The Surfer ottsel looked to Ella.
"Ya dude! You helped Mar through many adverture, even though you were a spinnin' train downwards! We Precusors give you one wish!"
Ella considered it for a second, she could wish for money, power, anything... but what came out her mouth didn't surpize anyone.
"I wish for three more wishes." The Prescusor Leader stood stunned as everyone in the arena brust into laughter.
"Consider it done," Ella smirked crossing her legs over each other.
"I wish that Jak would have one of my wishes." The Precusors nodded looking to Jak, he shook his head trying to clear his mind.
"Damas," Everyone gasped as the Precusor's nodded bitting their lower lips, they looked back to Ella as she pointed behind her.
"When the arena battles would come I would see a picture of, Damas, Mar, and two women..." She looked to Jak. "I want Jak's Mother, Lady Kaara and Jak's younger Sister, Martinique... back." They bit their lower lip as a bright light came from behind them, Damas stumbling out taking the hand of a younger blonde lady. Her blue eyes looked around before landing on Jak, tears poured from her eyes as she reached out her arms.
"My baby, Mar..." She leaned back to her husband. "He's really skinny." A girl in a pure white dress cartwheeled out until she was infront of Jak, her dark purple eyes watching Jak.
"Man, Mar sure did grow up ugly!" Jak gave a low growl as the girl folded her arms over her chest. "I'm Martinique, your older sister." Martinique glanced to Ella. "Yo Michelle, I promised a couple old people they would get to see their baby, so here ya go..."
"That's right," The Precusors said stepping forward looking up and down at her. "Michelle, a couple of people would like to see you..." The Precusors looked around the whole arena.
"People of this earth," The Leader shouted.
"People have been living without you even knowing it..." The Dummy Precusor shouted.
"We give you the people of..." the Precusors smirked, motioning behind them. "Ironside."
Sliver light came from behind them as they snaked out around Ella, her eyes turned sliver as it lifted her up into the air. Her feet went bare as a long skirt of purples and blues flowed down from her wasit, it had a slit going up to her wasit as a small gold belt appeared on her wasit. A purple and blue bra came on her chest as a pair of finger less gloves coverd her hands, she looked ahead as a man and women stepped out. The women looked at Ella before she started crying.
"Shiya!!!" Ella's eyebrow went up as she stepped forward before she ran up to them, she hugged the lady before the man placed a hand on her back.
"Shiya... we never thought we would see you again..." Ella nodded as the women fell crying into her hands, she fell to as the women put her arms around her.
"Shiya!!! We never thought you would land in the land of Sand and Metal!!!! I'm soooo sorry!" Ella pulled back.
"What do you mean you're sorry?"
"Shiya, it's coming... fear her... she'll be coming for you and the others! Save them! Save our people! Don't let her kill you!!! She's coming for everyone!!!" Ella stood up as her father nodded to her.
"Good luck Shiya... we love you."
"Tell me more!" Ella shouted trying to grab them as they diseappered.
"We love you, Shiya... our baby."
"No wait!" Ella shouted as she fell back onto her but, she jumped back up looking to the Precusors. "What did they mean!" The Precusors shook their heads.
"We can not tell you that, they were not even suppose to tell you." Jak placed a hand on her shoulder as she pulled away from him sitting on the table Tess was on.
"Whatever, you guys like screwing with people's lives anyways..."
"Are you ready, Jak? We have something to show you."
"What?"
"The Universe!"
Ella watched as Jak got onto the ship, it rose out of the arena as everyone sighed. Ella looked to her fingers sighing, now he was gone.
"Jak!" Daxter shouted as Ella turned around.
"I couldn't leave you guys! With all our adventures ahead, you wouldn't last a second without me."
"Haha!" Ella laughed. "I almost forgot to laugh!"
"Ahhh," Pecker flew down onto the bench, "What a team we are!"
"Yeah, well the next adventure, I'm calling the shots!" Daxter put a hand out, "Put 'er there partner... HA!" he yanked it away, "Psych! Oh yeah, life is good!"
--X--X--
Martinique was going on and on about how much she missed the real world as everyone of her old friends as Jak next to his mother, Kaara. She wore a long blue dress with a sliver belt along her wasit, her blonde hair was pulled back into a ponytail as she sipped her wine. Looking to her son she smiled, she tlinted her head towards the window.
Jak followed her as she stopped at the window.
"Mar," Kaara said putting the glass down. "I remembered for the longest time... the day I would see you become a hero. At the end of the war, I could tell my son he is a ture hero." She smiled at him as he nodded.
"And I am." Kaara shook her head.
"All is far in love and war, Mar." She motioned outside. "The battle is not over until love is ture and pure." Jak walked up to the window and saw Ella sitting by herself next to the Sand Shark, she placed her hand on his shoulder. "Like your father said, go make war your own..." Jak nodded moving towards the door but stopped when she spoke up again. "Also, have her home before eleven please."
Jak nodded running down the steps.
--X--X--
Ella sighed digging her feet into the sand and jumping back when an ant bit her, she sighed again laying on her stomach watching it move. She thought of the time she was on her first mission to find some kind of killer and stop him, the killer saw Ella and grabbed her but when he was carrying her off... Errol saved her.
"Damn him," Ella growled crushing the ant, she couldn't remember the last time she felt so empty and sad. Sitting up again she flet hands touch her shoulders, she tried to pull away when they pulled her into a strong chest.
"Michelle, I think-"
"Jak... go away..." Ella growled shrugging away from him. "I don't want to be near anyone right now," She put her head to her knee. "Not right now... please?" Jak gave a sigh, but it had a sense of mischeif in it.
"Fine, I'll just take you away from everyone." Ella turned to tell him to go away but yelped when he lifted her up and jumped into the Sand Shark.
"Kidnapper!" Ella shouted hitting his chest as all their friends came into the garage staring blankly at them, Damas stepped forward as Kaara put her hand on his shoulder.
"Make love your own, just like war." Kaara smiled to her son as everyone looked to her werid.
"Make what your own?" Ella screamed kicking her feet. "No way! Jak if you don't put me down-"
"See ya before, eleven." Jak grinned slamming on the gas, letting sand fly up into the air as Damas gave a low laugh.
"Make love your own, eh?" Damas asked his wife as Martinique growled.
"I want a boyfriend! You said I could get one before he had a girlfriend!" Kaara placed her hands on Martinique's shoulders.
"It's a long story..."
"As long as the sands have turned." Seem said, Martinique rolled her eyes.
"Whatever."
"Kiddnapper!" Ella shouted again as she hit his chest again, tears were starting to well up in her eyes as he rushed past the Marauders coming at them. "You better bring me back or, I'll... I'll... I'll do something!" Jak rolled his eyes as he stopped still in site range of Spargus, Jak turned her around so she would look at him.
"Hey," He chuckled. "Sorry about that,"
"Doubt it," She growled not looking at him. "Don't even think about touching me, I'll murder you if you do!" Jak rolled his eyes again pressing his plams to her face, pulling her face back to his.
"I bet Errol had issuse with you," He grinned as her face turned red and she turned away again.
"Nope." He turned her head back to him again, his face inches away from hers.
"Tell me this, Michelle, why did you come to find me; even though you had a good life."
"Screw you." Ella growled, he leaned closer to her.
"Tell me this, then... have you ever loved me?" She didn't anything, Jak sighed again leaning back in the seat.
"I give up then, Daxter was right, you do have a cold heart." She shrugged.
"It's what the Krizmon Graud does to ya, just look at Torn and Ashelin." Jak motioned to the seat next to him.
"Come on, I'll get you back home... okay?" Ella nodded moving off of Jak's lap to the seat next to him, he started to drive when a Marauder stopped infront of them. Ella gaze shifted all around them as she reached for her guns.
"My guns..." Ella mouthed to Jak, he reached for his own but remembered that he left them back at the party too.
"Damn it." Jak growled as the Marauders circled them, one walked up to Jak's side motioning for him to get out. Jak got out as the others grabbed Ella and yanked her out, she let out a scream as they torn her top off. Jak ran to her side as the Marauders smirked at them, aimming their guns at the duo.
"Kill them!" Someone yelled as they started to charge, Jak jumped back as a knife was thrown at him. Dark was screaming and clawing up to the surface of his body as Jak changed, Dark Eco sparked from his hands as he ripped through each one.
"Yo Jak! Or Mar!" Jak turned and saw Kloud holding a kinfe to Ella's neck, blooded poured from his mouth as he smiled. "I heard whatca said to her, you know she only belongs to me... Errol's Snow White Queen."
"Kloud..." Ella growled clenching sand in her fist. "I'm sorry... but-" Ella tossed the sand back into his eyes as Kloud shouted letting go of her, she crawled away from him as Kloud yanked out his gun and pointed it at Jak.
"See you in hell, Mar!"
