A/N: Yeah, I know, that last chapter was pretty short. Sorry! I just had kept getting writer's block just like I did with this chapter! That's not my fault! Hey, I just now noticed that my story is a lot like the movie, "Me, Myself, and Irene". Kinda weird how I never noticed that before. Hmm...anyway, on to the story!

X and D

"Well, there you go." D said, motioning toward the cow-like animal, "But be careful not to get too close to the giant lizard things, they bite and it really hurts." He was rubbing his left arm as though he had gotten bitten.

Samos walked up carefully to one of the cow creatures. It was around four feet tall from foot to back; with a horse-like mane and hooves. Its head was long and narrow with short rat-like ears and a dog-like nose. All of them were black, every last one of them. They had no indication of which was female or male. Its tail was just a nub only two inches long with not much fur on it. It had an incredible amount of muscle mass for being enclosed in the tomb it was in.

"This creature is more incredible in person than in the history books." Samos said to himself, observing the animal graze.

"Why didn't X want human contact here? Scientists like Samos could learn a lot here." Jak asked D.

"Well, I'm not supposed to say. I really wasn't even supposed to bring you here. If he finds out that I brought you here, I'm going to be in a lot of trouble." D said with a worried expression on his face.

"It's okay, he won't know. We'll be out of here soon." Kleiver said, putting his right hand on D's left shoulder.

"I hope so." D said and looked at the ground.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Around an hour later, Samos had written down around one hundred and fifty pages worth of notes on all the strange new animals that were in the crypt. Everyone else had gone to wait for him to be finished in D's 'house' and they discussed things like how he had survived the dessert storm to find such an incredible place and his experience in Spargus City.

Samos walked into the room.

"Finally, you're done. Now we can get out of here!" Daxter said as he started to walk toward the vehicles.

D's eyes changed back to the heartless eyes they once were and his voice was bloodcurdling again, "What the hell! Didn't I say that you couldn't come here?"

"Aww shit." Jak said, running his right hand through his blonde hair.

"D brought us here so yell at him, not us!" Daxter said after he turned to face X.

"Take your leave from here, I must converse the matter with him." X said as he walked toward the bed.

"He didn't mean any harm." Kleiver said.

"I said take your leave." X said more aggressive this time. He removed his hat and jacket, laying them on the edge of the bed.

Jak, Samos, and Daxter got into the Sand Shark.

"But, X..."

"But nothing," X snapped at Kleiver, "You have no business in our affairs. Now, Kleiver, be intelligent and return to your own world." He pointed to the Gilla Stomper.

Kleiver wanted to say more but he knew he would be defeated even worse than he already was. He retreated slowly to his vehicle and started it up. The four of them drove back to the city in silence.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

X's mind stormed with questions, some of which he knew D could answer for him. He sat on the bed, noticing the small white rat had came out of the pocket. X smiled when he saw it. He petted it after it had climbed up onto his lap.

"Hey Cherry." He said to the rodent. Cherry just curled up into a ball and fell asleep as he continued to pet her.

He sighed, closed his eyes and lay on the bed, his feet still off the bed as to not disturb the sleeping white ball of fluff on his lap.

In X/D/Drakenok's head...

D, what was your reason for this, unnecessary action?"-X

I thought it might be nice to enjoy some company for a while."-D

I thought we agreed never to let the humans come close to our home."-X

But..."-D

No buts. Do you want to give them a chance to even think of calling their comrades and telling the 'Bad People' about us? Do you want to endure the torture they forced upon us when we were just an infant? We have grown now, and now that were grown, we have the ability to withstand more torture and experiments we could not have before. Do you want that?"-X

No...I'm sorry."-D

Your apology has been accepted but you can't be endangering us anymore. Do you recall the last time you did that?"-X

D was silent.

Am I understood?"-X

Yes sir."-D

There was another short period of silence.

Do you know why Drakenok saved that little girl?"-D

Nine, I do not."-X

Well, let's ask him."-D

Do you recall that he does not speak or is your memory unreliable again?"-X

That's right hu? Darn. What could have been his reason than?"-D

We shall discuss this matter later. Right now we shall get some rest, given our present state, we are still very injured due to Drakenok's foolish actions."-X

Alright."-D

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

They all got out of the vehicles. Sig and Torn weren't there so Jak had thought they had returned to Haven city.

"What the heck is X's problem? We weren't even touching anything!" Daxter complained.

"Like he said, he was tortured and experimented on by humans when he was just an infant and I would think that was his way of showing he is scared beyond belief of our kind." Samos said.

"But not all people are like that." Daxter responded.

"Yes but, he does not know that. All he knows of our kind is the pain and suffering we've caused him." Samos said.
