Well...here it is. This is about how long each update should take. I have
vacation in two weeks, so I (might) get some work done then. The last chapter sucked, I know, but it (should) get more interesting as I go along.

"Yeech!" Daxter said when he stepped on another bug. "Do we really have to do this? Why can't we get someone else to do it? If it weren't for me...us...then the world would be ruled over by those lunatics Gol and Mia! Heros shouldn't have to do menial tasks like this!"
Jak turned to tell his friend for the hundredth time to shut up, when suddenly his ears perked up at a snap from the darkness in the woods off the path. "I mean, Samos could at least..." Daxter was suddenly muffled by Jak's hand over his mouth. "shhhh...someone is following us." Jak whispered. Daxter's eyes went wide and he started looking around frantically. "Don't look! Just keep walking like normal. We don't want to alert them." Daxter nodded and Jak let his hand of his mouth.
Jak kept walking, waiting til he got to the part of the woods where there was a secret path he knew. It was an effort to keep himself from running, every step hoping that his attacker would wait just a little longer. He was so close...almost there...he ran down the path without warning, hearing his pursuer give chase. He ran as hard as he could, weaving trough the trees left, right, left, left, right. Just as suddenly as he had begun, he stopped and dove into a large bush that was hollow, where he had used to hide for hours during hide and seek without ever being found.
"So this is where you always hid!" said Daxter with a little bit of annoyance. "This hiding spot is SO unfair" he managed to get out before Jak shushed him. Once they had lain in hiding for a few minutes, Jak started to say that he thought they had lost their pursuer, but was interrupted by a nervous squeal from Daxter, and then a loud explosion, behind him. He turned around to face their pursuer, no more then 10 feet away, trough the hole he had just made in the bush with some sort of energy. As he got closer, Jak saw he was in a dark, black cloak that seemed to be made out of shadows. He got up to fight, but the figure moved with surprising quickness and was beside him in an instant, griping him by the throat. Daxter ran at him, but was grabbed and thrown behind Jak with more force then necessary. Jak was pinned against the tree, losing breath, when a fast moving blur slammed into the side of his attacker.
The blur and the attacker fought for a few moments, while Jak regained his breath. Suddenly, the attacker grabbed the blur by the throat and hurled it away, then disappeared off into the forest. The blur was visible now, and looked like a cat, but there was something off about it that Jak couldn't quite see in the dark of the forest. It watched the attacker disappear, growling after it.
"What IS that thing?" Daxter said, dusting himself off, with more than a few bruises on him. Jak gave him a look that showed he was being VERY impolite to something that had probably just saved both their lives. Jak went over to thank it, when suddenly it turned towards them both, jumping at them with teeth bared, and wings unfurled. "Wings?!" was all that Jak had time to think before he dodged the attack, turning around to fight. The thing was suddenly on the ground, holding its head with its paws, seeming to do battle with itself before calmly getting up and turning towards them again, this time without teeth bared.
"I'm....sorry about that" the almost cat said. "I'm Jasin. I am one of the people who sent the message to you. We have been looking forward to meeting you for a long time."

Cliffhanger! I personally think chapter 2 is MUCH better than chapter 1...chapter one was never really gonna even be its own chapter. I really made it so short because I was testing out how to upload stuff, and I (think) I know what I did wrong to make the format not work. I hope that this one DOES work *crosses fingers* There are probably spelling errors, even using the spell check, the combination of my bad spelling and grammer and a keyboard that isn't very responsive are NOT a good combination. Oh, and see that little button down there that says "review"? Click it now. OR ELSE!
