This is a fanfic. About what happens in between Jak 2 and Jak 3. :Not there may be spoilers: But yeah, some pairings. Torn and Keria. Jak and Ashelin. Maybe a bit of Daxter and Tess in their new found…uh…forms. Please review and make me feel special again.

I don't own JAK AND DAXTER. Naughty Dog does and they may keep it. They do such great work!

Oh, thanks to my friend, Kate for helping me with this fanfic. She is the obsessed one here.

Ch 1

Jak plopped down on his bed in the hideaway location he was stashed in. Everyone was in the city with the Freedom League roaming around. They claimed he was dangerous. But who's fault had that been? Not like he had any choice in being experimented on.

"God, I miss Tess," moaned Daxter.

"I'm sure she misses you too," replied Jak. He had matured since the fall of the Baron. Things had really changed around for him. Even his feelings for Keria had changed.

"You've changed, Jak." Keria's words rang clear in his head. It was true. He knew it, and so did she.

Daxter waved his hand in front of Jak's face. "Hello. Earth to Jak!"

Jak shook his head and smiled. "Sorry, Dax."

A knock came at the door. Jak looked at Daxter. Daxter looked at Jak. He shrugged his shoulders. So, Jak got up he went to answer the door.

There is the doorstep stood a red haired elf girl in a black outfit with a red tube top. There was nervousness in her pale green eyes that was very unusual for her.

"Tess!" cried Daxter, running for the yellow haired girl standing behind the other girl. He ran straight for her arms.

Instantly Daxter and Tess were oblivious to anything going on around them. They were too busy…uh…catching up. The other girl was Ashelin, the Baron's daughter herself. She rubbed her left arm while looked at Tess and Daxter.

"What brings you here?' asked Jak.

"Uh, Tess really wanted to see Daxter again. I offered to bring her over," replied Ashelin, looked at Jak.

Jak chuckled nervously. "Yeah, he really missed her."

"They look like they are really happy to see each other," agreed Ashelin.

"So, how are you and Torn?" asked Jak. He looked down at his boots.

"We, uh, broke up. It just wasn't working out. How about you and Keria?" asked Ashelin.

Jak kicked a pebble. "It wasn't working out for us either. We grew apart, I guess."

A long silence followed. Jak cleared his throat. "How long are you two staying?"

"I don't know. Why?" Ashelin looked up at Jak for the first time.

"We could take a walk around, that is if you'd like?" offered Jak, with a big smile.

Ashelin matched his smile. "Sure."
