I just realized that some of you don't know what a Glaive is. It's a staff with a curved blade on one end. This isn't exactly what Yamikai's weapon is, but it's close. The only difference is that Yam's has a tiny blade curving the other direction. Sort of like this:
(,
The ( is the main blade, the , is the opposing blade. Get it?
You Guys: Got it!
Good.
I don't know what'll be in this chap. I just got into a fight with my brother and watched Toy story, so it might be strange.

Jak whistles shrilly. He thought Kira would be here by now, considering she was basically already there.
~* Where is she?... *~
He hears a sound and swivels to face it. Nothing. He turns towards the jungle.
Another sound. A footstep, very quiet. He stays wary and calm. The footsteps halt. A tingle between his shoulder blades- someone is watching him closely.

Yamikai watches the boy intently. ~* He fits the description perfectly. A bit younger then I expected, but still a perfect fit. *~ She notes how he instinctively goes into a fighting stance as he senses her. ~* Well, this will be interesting. Let's see how good this guy is. *~ She steps out of the shadows, her glaive down and ready.
"Hello."
The boy nods to her, then tilts his head to one side in inquiry. She nods in reply- Yes, we are going to fight. They are both still for a moment. Then they both lunge at the same time.
"Hi-YAH!'
His punch sends her reeling for a moment, long enough for him to do a spin-kick. She dodges just in time, flailing out with the blunt end in hopes to trip him up. He jumps over, diving back down and almost knocking her into the land of dancing pink flut-fluts. (AKA, almost a KO) She snarls and slashes back, leaving a bloody streak on his right leg. She swings again, this time at his head, but he blocks with his left arm and swings under, almost hitting her stomach. She swings with the sharp edge while he recovers, hitting Jak's thick leather belt and knocking the breath out of him. He falls back just long enough for Yamikai to grab a tiny throwing star from a hidden pouch. The edges, though sharp, have a dull look. As Jak lunges again, she throws it, hitting him in the middle of his chest-ring. He stumbles past her, and falls over. Yamikai blinks in surprise.
"Maybe I made the drug too strong." She shrugs and slings Jak over her shoulder effortlessly after pulling out the throwing star. "Must remember to use less poppy and sleep-lily juice..." She walks off into the woods, whistling an odd tune in minor key.
@,--
Daxter sighs as he hears Yamikai's footsteps and whistles. ~* She's back. Darn. I was almost hoping she would get eaten. *~ As she bounces cheerfully into the clearing, slinging Jak back off her shoulder, Daxter sighs.
"Somehow, I'm not surprised you kidnapped Jak as well... Why do I feel like hitting my head on something?"
Yamikai blinks. "This is Jak? I probably should have known." She grins. "You said you're his best friend, and she's his girlfriend?"
"Yeah..."
"Great! You can come with us to Fincayra!" She smiles happily and ties Jak's arms and legs, then plops down and pulls her journal out again. "We'll have to leave soon."
Daxter blinks, perplexed, at this. "Er... Why?"
Yamikai blinks back. "Because I'll need hostages for good behavior, and I'm sure Gaia will be happy to have you two. And Mol seemed lonely. She may take to one of you, and you won't be killed."
~* Mol and Gaia? Too close to Gol and Maia... *~ "Wait a minute! KILLED?!"
Yamikai nods. "I assume that's why Gaia wanted me just to kidnap him, and not kill him. It's on the List- never trust a lieutenant to kill the hero. Also on the List is to kill all of the hero's close relatives, vengeful friends, and double-crossing love interests."
Daxter blinks a few more times. She sounded so cheerful. Yamikai walks over to Kira and shakes her. Kira doesn't stir.
"Maybe I hit her too hard..." Yamikai pulls out a small bottle, flips the lid off, and waves it under Kira's nose.
She has to jump out of the way as Kira sits up, coughing.
"Darn, is it just me or are all my potions getting too strong?..." Yamikai sniffs the bottle and gags. "Less crystallized ginger and pepper..."

That ended more humorously then I expected. Ah well! I like it. Those were the equivalent of smelling salts, BTB. R&R! ^_^
