Whenever I hear the word Torn I can't help thinking of scrubs. So one day I gave Jak the line "got any missions torn scrub" and suddenly the character noticed a scrub standing in the corner. In this chapter we finally find out where Torn (and all others) gets his t-shirts from.
CHAPTER 11
VIN, ASHELIN AND THE TORN SCRUB
(Undergroun HQ)
Jak: we're back, got any new missions today torn scrub?
Torn scrub: (stands in the corner looking torn)
Torn: (looks oddly at the torn scrub) where did that came from?
Daxter: eyh! T-shrt!
Torn: (is wearing a t-shirt saying "Praxis is cooler than teletubbies" (guess he's right)) another gift from my good friend. Oh well, one of the barons mining operations are under attack by metal heads
Jak: and?
Torn: the foreman is one of the undergrounds best informants
Jak: what? Then we have to save the guy! (Runs out dragging Well and Daxter along)
Torn: yeah, something like that
(Strip mine)
Line metalhead: INHABITANTS! (Gets shoot and dies)
Well: say, are all the metalheads females?
Daxter: no, just almost all of them
Jak: look! Person!
Vin: iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!
Jak: are you only thinking about yourself?
Vin: are you friends? How nice, so. Where's the army?
Daxter: over there (points at an army Shadow sent)
Vin: great! I'm saved! (Runs home)
Jak: Vin is safe, no for the next mission
Well: how did you know his name?
Jak: read his name tag
Well: oh
(Underground HQ)
Torn: (is wearing a t-skirt saying "Praxis is good at fighting") you guys! My lover is in trouble!
Jak: is it a boy?
Daxter: or girl?
Well: or perhaps it's a baby?
Torn: it's a girl my age! Fatty sent her out on a mission at the pumping station, and I think she might need some help
Daxter: (smiles)
Torn: don't even think about it!
Daxter: by the way, is it her who sent you that skirt?
Torn: (is wearing a t-skirt saying "long live Praxis") (I don't know why he suddenly changed but…) yes. No get out!
(Pumping station)
Daxter: what the hell are we doing risking our lives to rescue some old crimson guard hag anyway?
Jak: (is to busy watching TV)
Daxter: who put that TV there?
Jak: (gets attacked)
Ashelin: (attacks Jak and talks with a nice voice) hi. What's your name?
Jak: (talks just as kindly to his attacker) my name is Jak, nice to almost get my head shoot of by you.
Ashelin: (releases Jak from her grip) my name is Ashelin, can you please get that odd-looking pet of yours to let go of my hand?
Jak's odd-looking pet/Daxter: (holds Ashelins hand)
Jak: Daxter! Didn't Torn tell you not to even think about it?
Daxter: I'm not thinking, it's an instinct really
Ashelin: (hits Daxter in his head) no offence ratboy, I got this instinct that tells me to hit whoever's holding my hand (except Torn) speaking of Torn. Tell him daddy is planning to find Mars tomb
Well: Mars is up there (points at Mars (fourth planet from the sun))
Ashelin: not Mars! Mar is Haven City's founder you leprechaun!
Well: leprechaun? There's no need to call me things (cries)
Ashelin: if you want to know more you should go see Onin in the bazaar
Jak: I can't! Mom said I shouldn't stare at girls
Ashelin: then look another way. I have to go now; it was nice meeting you (waves)
Jak: (waves back)
Daxter: for the last time Jak. YOUR MOM CAN'T PUNISH YOU WHEN SHE'S DEAD! (Is hit by a lighting bolt)
Daxter's mom: (sits on a cloud) you better behave young ottsel!
Daxter: what the?
As for the question about male and female metalheads... there's only one male in this story. You can try to guess who.
