Chapter 2: Explanations

Pulling up to the command center of Haven City, Torn parked his car and ordered the two guards protecting the entrance to carry Jak out of the car and into the building. Torn, himself walked away mumbling things under his breath that sounded like 'To damn heavy' and 'Weighs as much as a damn whale'.

He was exaggerating of course, but not by much. The guards had to use all their might to get Jak onto the elevator where they nearly collapsed from the exhaustion of strength. They then left Jak on the floor of the elevator and returned to their posts.

When Torn and Jak reached the top floor, command central, the doors parted, and Torn ending up dragging Jak to the middle where everyone else was at.

Samos, Keira, Onin, Pecker, Ashlein, Tess, Sig, and Daxter were all staring at him.

"Hey, he's heavier than he looks, alright," stated Torn evenly.

They shrugged and returned to what they were talking about.

"Look, this large scale attack could only mean another Metal Head Leader," said Ashlein exasperated.

"But, it also mean that they evolved somehow," said Keira, equally exasperated. "Which can be just as bad."

Onin started throwing up sparkling symbols while Pecker translated, "Onin says to wake Jak up, then everything can be explained."

Daxter, hearing this, jumped onto Jak's chest and repeatedly slapped Jak in the face.

"Wake up dark boy, we need you so bird brain over there could start explaining," Daxter whined.

Jak growled in his unconscious state and groggily started to awaken. "Dax, get the hell off of me."

Daxter jumped up back onto the hologram table.

Jak growned and sat up.

"What happened?"

"You transformed," put in Torn. "But it was different."

"Yes," Pecker said, "Onin says that that transformation is part of the explanation."

Jak stood up and joined the others while holding his head.

"Alright, start with the explanation."

"Onin wants to know about the portal you went through to get to this time," Pecker said.

"The Time Rift?" asked Keira. "Well, what about it, I built it and sent it into the past."

Onin threw up even more symbols into the air. "Yes but did you glimpse anything else while falling through?" translated Pecker.

Samos enter the conversation while Torn, Sig, Tess, and Ashlein watched confused. "I did, I say glimpses of different lands, but what would that have to do with anything?"

"Wait, wait," said Ashlein wanting to know more, "Are you saying that Jak, Keira, Samos, and Daxter all came from the past?"

"Bingo," yelled Daxter sarcastically while dramatically moving his arms around. "We have a winner!"

"Onin says that is not important," said Pecker. "But I'm about to translate is. You see, those lands that Samos saw were not different lands in this world."

"Wait," said Jak, "They, they were different worlds?"

"Yes," translated Pecker. "Okay, everyone save questions till the end if you'll please. You see they were different worlds as Jak said. And, different dimensions. In the beginning of time, when before elves and precursors lived, there was just the worlds. But with the birth of elves, came the birth of sin.

"Every bad thought, every wrongdoing, every sin that every single elf has committed is sucked together. Since there is so much sin, sin itself could not live on the world, due to the lack of space.

"So, sin somehow created a new dimension. And every sin committed goes there. This dimension has been growing since the beginning of elves, it's been evolving as well.

"Questions to the end please," said Pecker seeing Keira's mouth opening. "Okay, where was I? Yeah, Onin says that this dimension is growing a mind of it's own, and it makes the Daystars and Kor looked like preschool bullies. Many will die with it's coming and it's coming here because, WHAT!" Pecker looked at Onin with a look of disbelief. Onin glared at him and signaled Pecker to continue.

"Onin, Onin says that they, they are drawn here by Jak"

Everyone looked at Jak with fear.

"Hold up," said Sig finally entering the discussion, "you mean to tell us that chilipepper over here is drawing that dimension?"

Onin nodded, and with that everyone stared at Jak even more intensely, and Daxter backed up a little.

Jak, honestly didn't know what to feel. He was confused, like always.

Pecker continued his eyes growing bigger with every word he translated, "Jak, Onin says they are drawn here by you. By your purity of evil."

"Now wait just a minute!" growled Jak, "I'm not evil!"

"Of course your not," said Pecker, his eyes so big you could play tennis with them. "But the dark eco in you is, your transformation is."

Everyone became even more confused.

"Wait," said Torn, "how come it's not drawn by the metal heads, they have dark eco in them."

"Let me explain," Pecker said reading from the even more symbols Onin was throwing in the air. "Dark eco in itself is not evil, it is a harmful substance of course, but not evil. And yes, metal heads do have dark eco in them, but not as much as Jak. You see, metal heads are animals contaminated with dark eco, but Jak, well Jak is different. Jak, when you transform, you feel anger and pain, yet joy and evil, am I not right?"

Jak nodded and Pecker continued. "Your transformation in itself is evil, the purest. Because your body accepted the dark eco, it changed your DNA, and gave you powers. But the way you harnessed it, with evil intentions, that made it evil in the first place. It does not matter that you are using it for good, because in the end, your transformation is evil."

"But what about my Light form?" said Jak wanting to find a flaw in Pecker's explanation. "Shouldn't that cancel out the effects, what about my balance?"

"Yes," translated Pecker once again, "But Onin says that is another reason that the dimension is drawn by you. It is confused, confused by how one elf can be so evil, the very essence of evil, and so good.

"Jak, it is time for you to hear the prophecy of old." Pecker then started a sort of chant, while Onin's fingers flew to a unknown rhythm.

"The Demon and Angel, fight for control

Yet as they combine, a new being will rise

An Angelic Demon, a Demonic Angel

Once fully combined, the elf in which they reside

Will transform with powers beyond imagination,

An Angelic Demon, a Demonic Angel

An angel of death, a demon of life"

"Wait," said Samos, "I've heard that before, Gol and Maia thought that that prophecy was meant for them, but, I thought it was a legend."

"Yes," Pecker continued, "But, it was not. It was meant for Jak."

"You mean," said Torn, "that the transformation he had earlier, it was his Light and Dark form combining?"

Onin nodded and Pecker said, "It's has begun. That also explains the metal head attack. You see, metal heads too sense calamity and destruction in the future. They came to find the person to which the dimension was being drawn to. They came to find Jak."

That explains why they all attacked me when I transformed, thought Jak.

Jak threw his fist into the nearest wall, leaving a huge and gaping hole. He was tired of this, tired of everything bad happening to him, why couldn't something good ever come to him.

"I'm going to the forest," said Jak evenly. "Call me if anymore attacks happen."

Jak then left unheeding to the words of the others. He had to think, he had to ponder, and most of all, he had to prepare.

Once again people, I'm asking for any ideas or help with the story. Also with the fan fiction site. Like, how do you put in those lines to divide the sections of a chapter. Everytime I save my documents with it, it disappears once I put it on the site.

Trust me, I'll need it in future chapters and if I don't know how to do it, the chapters will be very confusing, you know, with all the war and death and Jak traveling to a far and distant…..

Ha, got you didn't I, sorry but you'll have to wait to see what happens next.
