Jak looked for a switch to open the doors to the ship but the father precursor called out weakly, "There is no door to this ship. He has no need for them."
"That doesn't matter," Jak said. "I'll make one." Dark eco sparked around his fists and Jak glared at the dent Zion had made. A few seconds later there was a loud metallic sounding echo throughout the ship and a large hole where the dent had been. Jak flapped his wings twice and flew through the hole he had made.
"Zion!"
A silvery figure floated towards Jak as if mocking the fact that Jak was using all his strength to stay in the air.
"You called?"
"You're going to pay for what you did to Mar."
"What I did?"
"You gave him false memories of you telling him that you killed his parents."
Zion seemed surprised at that. He had not expected Jak to know.
Jak continued. "You wanted Mar to full himself with rage so you could take over his body."
"Nobody is supposed to know. How the hell do you know?"
"You wanted people to experiment on, not to kill. If you killed them it would not of been as insulting to the precursors as if you used them in an experiment. You sent Mar's parents back in time as failed experiments and they eventually became Gol and Maia."
"Someone is telling you this but who…"
Jak realised that Zion was right. He hadn't truly known any of this stuff until Zion confirmed it with his glares. They came to him as mere suggestions in his mind and he just repeated them out loud.
You are an enemy to us all Zion.
That was the other precursor (refer to first chapter).
Yeah dude what you have done is totally not cool.
That was the surfer dude precursor (again refer to first chapter).
"Not more precursor scum." Zion was exasperated. He thought he had taken care of the precursors but it didn't seem that way.
We'll send you all our energy so that you can beat him Jak.
Jak felt his strength slowly increasing and the darkness in his mind slowly disappearing. His wings were growing lighter and immediately he was able to fly without effort.
"I feel more powerful, but I don't think I'll be able to beat him yet."
Suddenly three beams of eco shot up from the ground, red, yellow and blue. Jak flew into the middle of them and as he did he heard a voice in his head.
Now go get him Jak, do it for the Mar we all knew and cared about
The three beams of eco began to swirl around Jak, each time making a smaller circle until finally Jak was enveloped in the three colours of eco. The eco burned into Jak's skin his body looked like it was covered in swirling tatoos.
Jak threw three different colours of eco encased in precursor energies at Zion knowing that they would mix and become highly explosive. Zion just dodged the attack and laughed.
"Don't make the same mistake as Mar did Jak. This time I want a challenge."
Now Jak laughed. "I would never underestimate a darkmaker."
Zion turned around and saw the eco coming back towards him.
"No, I refuse to die like this." Zion held out his palm to the eco and muttered some ancient sounding words. "Oce morf eno krad a tcetorp." The eco slowed but didn't stop. Suddenly a blast of energy shot out from Zion's palm and pushed the eco backwards. Meanwhile Jak flew towards Zion and clung to his back.
"What the hell are you doing."
"Defeating the first darkmaker." Slowly Jak and Zion were covered in white eco which crept up their legs and through their bodies, up to their heads. The whole time Zion yelled in pain. He was a creature of darkness as the father precursor had said and could not stand lighter powers.
"Aaaaaarrrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhh." A grey steam rose from Zion and it became clear that his spirit was leaving Mar's body.
It is over now Jak, the prophecy has been fulfilled.
Jak finally knew who it was who had been helping him throughout his journey.
"Damas? Is that you?"
I'm glad you guessed before my time ran out. I am able to talk to you now to fulfill a greater purpose. Now that it has been done things will seem more normal.
"Father..."
There isn't much time. Go to Zion's ship and you will find a precursor egg where the precursor was. Take it and bury it with Mar's body in three days time. Just remember I love you son...
Jak was barely aware of hovering back to ground level and collapsing.
