Chapter Two

Jak went back to freedom HQ thinking "I am a monster". This is not the first time he had become Dark Jak. None of his friends new his pain. Even Keira didn't know what was going on. He hasn't talked to her in a while. He has been so busy lately trying to bring the fight back to the Metal Head and Krimzon Guard front. Just then his communicator sounded and a familiar voice sounded on it. It was Pecker. "Jak we need you to come down to Onin's tent now". "I'll be there soon". He turned off his communicator. Jak ran over to a Zoomer and got in it. As he began to drive had began to think about the past. He remembered back when everything was uncomplicated in Sand Over Village. That is until Daxter became an Ottsel and the Lurkers started attacking. Then he was interrupted when Daxter started talking. "You do know you're about to pass it, right side kick?" "Yeah, yeah" said Jak. He turned and set the Zoomer down in front of Onin's tent. He walked in and saw Samos, Pecker and Onin.

Pecker, Onin's interpreter began to speak. "Onin says that you must go to the planet core. It is said that ancient Precursor Technology lies in the core that will protect this planet". "And pray tell how are we supposed to get there, bird beak?" said Daxter walking close to the fire in the middle of the room. "Who are you calling bird beak you little" Jak interrupted Pecker and said "Stop it, the both of you!" Jak picked both of them up by their tails and separated them. Pecker then said "You're lucky he was here". Samos then said "Jak, you must go to the Metal Head section of the city. Onin says that you will find a way to get to the planet core". Jak looked at Samos and said "But how will I know it when I see it?" Samos said "I'm sure you'll know it when you see it. Now go". Jak nodded and ran out the door. Daxter looked around and said "Hey! Wait for me!" and went running out the door. Pecker just shook his head and said "Those two are idiots; you really expect them to get to the planet core". Onin used her magical powers and zapped him which threw him across the room. Then she began to make hand gestures. "What is she saying?" said Samos. Pecker got up and dusted himself off. "She said you are an ignorant fool. Pecker, you know as well and I do that they are the saviors of the planet".

Jak got on the Zoomer that he parked outside of Onin's tent and began to fire up the engines. Daxter jumped on to his shoulders just in time. No more then a second later Jak took off with immense speed to the Port which was right next to the Metal Head section to the city. In no time flat Jak got them into the Port and right outside of the Metal Head Section. He set the Zoomer down, hard. So hard that it let off black smoke. Daxter looked like he just looked like he knocking at deaths door. Jak looked at him and said "You ok Dax?" "……uhhh….. I…. I think so…. could…. you just give me a minute" said Daxter. Jak laughed and said "Yeah". Jak thought how he had never seen Daxter this scared, and he had been through a lot riding on Jak's shoulders.

After about a minute, Jak said "Ready Dax?" Daxter looked up towards Jak and said "Sure, I guess". Jak nodded to him and took out his Peace Maker, which was the most powerful weapon he had. He didn't use it too often, but then again these weren't normal circumstances. He walked into the Metal Head part of the city. He noticed a predominant color there, green. There were a lot of thing that looked alive on the walls. Sharp claws were also sticking out of the wall. Daxter was just looking in awe and said "Last time we were here the Metal Heads were attacking us like there was no tomorrow, where are they?" Jak had the same feeling something was odd here. "I don't know" he said "Something is wrong here, keep your ears open Dax". Daxter nodded and began looking around again.
