Chapter 4 Erol and I went over to the Haven City's prison. I followed him into the cell areas, and he opened one of the cell doors. Samos was in the cell. " Not again Erol.. My bones ache, and I could break something!" Erol is real cross with prisoners. I felt sad for Samos, 'cause he's one of Jak's friends. But I showed no empathy on the outside. " Come on old man." Erol grabbed Samos' shoulder, and forced him out, closing the door on Kera. " You know the drill." He sent Samos to a computer. " Make sure all of the shields stay up, and try to remember to recharge the generators." Erol walked out slowly and smirked.
"Good luck old man.." I looked at Samos, and secretly passed him a message from the underground. I smiled faintly and put my index finger on my lips signaling to not tell anyone. He looked at it, and nodded with a yes. I walked out quickly.
"Damn... I wonder where that dark eco freak is right about now..." Erol said angrily. His back was facing me. " He's probably destroying our cargo or something.. Can't stop thinking about what the Baron said about getting that child." I walked over to him quietly, and put my hand on his shoulder, then looked at him. "Don't worry about it. I have a whole group of crimson guards scheduled to ambush Jak. Word in the streets have it that he's out near the pumping station to get something." He looked at me, " Exelent." He faced me and kissed me on the fourhead. We hugged a little bit, and let go. We walked out of the prison, with one of Erol's arms around my waist.
We went over to my appartment, and right at the doorway, Erol said, " I'm entered into the city races this coming week. You're entered in too-" "What?" I inturrupted. Erol blinked then closed his eyes smiling looking down seeming to be thinking it's funny about my reaction. " I entered you into the competition races with me. I've seen you on a zoomer Laona." I'm not very confortable about zoomer races. I always imagine myself going real fast, then loosing control and falling off into a big dark pit. I hate going fast on zoomers sometimes. I smiled a little. "You shouldn't have." I put my hand on his face. " Sure I'm good with driving.. But-" You can be on the same zoomer as me. You don' t have to drive. If I blow course you can help direct me." I thaught for a moment looking down, after taking back my hand when he took it with his.
I looked back up. "Sure. That'll be even better" He smiled and kissed me. He looked up at the sky and his eyes widened. "Laona I have to be somewhere right now, urgent meeting.. Oh shit I forgot!" With that he started running off. "I love you!" I looked back at him running, and I rolled my eyes smiling with my hands over my hips thinking to myself why he's the Baron's assistant anyway.
I walked into my appartment turning on the lights. I walked over to the couch and fell on it with a big sigh. "What a day..." I said to myself faintly. A few seconds later, there was a knock at the back door. I groaned from having to get up again. I walked over to the back door. It was Jak and Daxter. I unlocked the back door and let them in. "Hello Laona.." Jak said in a way he knew something. "Hey guys.. What do you need?" They were looking around the place suspecting for clues. "Oh nothing.. We just wanted to come by AND TELL YOU THAT YOU'RE SPENDING WAY TOO MUCH TIME WITH THE GUYS WE'RE TRYING TO BEAT... ALONG WITH THOSE STINKIN' METAL HEADS!" Daxter yelled angrily. Jak gave me a dirty look crossing his arms. "Where have you been? I've been risking my ass double time 'cause of you." Jak said infuriatingly. I looked at him, then turned the other way and started walking over back to the couch. "I-I-I'm sorry guys! I've just been real busy lately!" Jak walked a few steps, "Busy doing what?" He said. Daxter followed, " Spending time with.." He put his hands togeather and put it on the side of his cheek looking up. "You new boyfriend EROL!" His expressions turned angry real fast with his legs and arms spread apart, fists tight when he jumped down onto the floor.
I started getting angry myself, "Oh graeat YOU FOUND OUT.. How worse can this get...Congratulations Laona you've exposed the truth... Ok you're lucky that he's at an urgent meeting right now!" I snapped pointing at them angrily. "But what about the underground? Are you against us?" Jak shouted and started walking. " Have you COMPLETELY turned on us!" I put my finger down and relaxed a little bit. " No Jak. I'm not against you whatsoever." I said calmly. Jak put his hand over his head looking up and then put his hand down looking at me again. "Then what side ARE you on? Who are you against?" " The only one I'm against, is the Metal Head leader, and his little metal head guys. I'm not against anyone else." Daxter looked at me closely. "Reeeeally." I looked at him annoyed, then squated down so we could be face to face. " Really." Jak looked at me. " Well that is reasonable. You don't seem to have a lot of hatrid in your life." I got up and looked at him. "That's because I've really never had anything, or anybody to hate. It's in a balance really." Jak walked past me. "That's all we really wanted to check out. Torn was very curious about your actions tward Erol." I turned my head around facing Jak looking surprized. "You were sent to spy on me?" Daxter walked past me too. "Yep toots." He jumped on Jak's shoulder. "It's all in a matter of business." He was trying to act all cool. He had one of his shoulders leaning on Jak's head, his legs crossed, and he was looking at his hands.
Jak just remembered something at the last minute. " Oh!" Jak walked over to me, and gave me a sword with a sheeth thing to cover the blade. It was identical to Torn's blade. It had a strap so I could tie it either to my waist, or houlder. "Torn wanted me to give you this. He said that it'll come in great use some day." I took it, looking at it. I looked back at Jak and nodded.
He walked over to the back door. " We have a meeting at Torn's fortress next week. DON'T miss it." With that, Jak was gone. I went over back to the back door and locked it. " It'll come in great use someday...?" I repeated to myself. I walked over into the hallway into my small bedroom. I put it in my closet in a safe place, where I put all of my most important wepons and tools in.
