Lost
Solstice lifted his head from his protective grasp about his sister, his eyes wandered around the surrounding area, the makeshift shelter was gone, torn to pieces by the winds that had ravaged the jungle the previous night, all that remained were the tattered branches half buried in the vegetation. Sarea stirred in his arms and Solstice shifted to make her more comfortable, and stopped, his ears twitched as noises in the undergrowth caught his attention, he gently shook Sareen awake.
"hmmm?… Sod off Sol, I'm trying to sleep"
"Shhh, hun, we've got company"
Sareen shot up, her whole body tense.
"Where?"
"Behind us"
The two of them gradually edged around the tree, and came face to face with a pair of lurkers, it was all over in a matter of moments, Sareen leapt forward and was soon standing over two corpses, the daggers in her hands dripping with blood. Sol stood up and clapped.
"Good show, we'd better get moving, there could be more about."
"Where do we go?"
Sol looked into her sad eyes, ageless brown meeting cool blue-grey, since their parent's death they had been wandering aimlessly through the jungle, Sol had also seen his sister mature in a way he had never thought possible, his baby sister had now become the hardened warrior in front of him, he sighed, saddened by their loss and at his lack of an answer for his sister.
"I don't know." he answered truthfully.
Sareen shook her head, and stopped "Wait, didn't you spend time with Samos?"
"Yeah, and?"
"do you think you could find your way there?"
Sol nodded and wandered off, Sareen stayed where she was, giving him time to think, finally he came back to her.
"Come on"
The journey was painfully slow, the pair of them using all the stealth they could muster so as not to alert any lurkers of their position, any Lurkers they did come across were easily dispatched in silence, in this fashion they finally reached the waterfall which signalled the border of the forest, and below, Sandover village.
The pair of them made their way straight to the Green Sage's hut, neither of them noticing the large attachment spinning in the air, until it activated.
"Wow, look at that" they heard Daxter Breathe.
The two of them had made it to the entrance unnoticed, Sol opened his mouth to announce their presence, and the words died on his lips as he beheld the monster in front of him.
"Do something Jak" Kiera screamed, Sol was just able to grab onto the vehicle and his sister as they were dragged into the rift.
The pull of time and space took them ever further from what had once been home, lightning flashed round them, coming dangerously close to the two dragging behind, Sol tightened his grip on his sister and felt the transport explode in his hand as it was struck..
"Find yourself Jak" was the last thing they heard from the Sage as they were pulled after Jak and Daxter, Jak turned his head and Sareen saw his eyes widen as he caught sight of them, before a blinding light engulfed them.
Then there was daylight and Sareen and Sol saw a new world rise up around them as they were sent hurtling to the ground, jumping up they spotted Jak further along the walk.
"There they are, come on" Sareen grabbed her brother's arm "Hey, What?" she cried out as he pulled her against the wall, motioning for her to be silent he pointed at the troop of red armoured men, Daxter fled as Jak was knocked out, the guards dragged him past where Sol and Sareen were hiding, in a flash two men were down and the ones who had been carrying Jak were grappling with the duo, a curt command was given and Sareen slumped against a guard with a blow to the head, Sol roared in anger and lunged at his sister's attacker, only to meet a similar fate.
