-Years Later-

Samos had watched the three boys and his daughter grow from children to teens as the years went by. Jak and Daxter were now 15, Zon was 16, and Keira was 14. Zon, now sporting a light green shirt and white pants, was either hanging out with Jak and Daxter or continuing his father's research, Keira was studying Precursor artifacts and upgrading the A-Grav Zoomer, Daxter was being...Daxter, and Jak was silently leading the three into all kinds of mischief, and giving Samos one big headache. And seeing as the three boys were now defying his rule and traveling towards Misty Island via the Fisherman's speedboat, he had a feeling that his headache was about to get much worse.

-Misty Island-

"Hey! Uh, Jak. Old green stuff told us not to come here." Daxter said as the three teens got off the boat and onto land.

"And we started listening to him when?" Zon asked, earning a chuckle from Jak. The three teens were walking around the area before Jak pulled his friends out of sight. He put a finger to his lips before pointing his thumb over the rock they were behind. All three of them silently peeked over to gaze upon a small army of Lurkers standing around. Zon gasped before Jak slapped his hand over his mouth. The three kept quiet before a figure appeared in a purple haze before the Lurker army. Zon's eyes widened in recognition of the man, who was none other than the Sage of Dark Eco: Gol Acheron.

"Continue your search for atrifacts and Eco." said Gol before taking a raspy breath while clutching his chest. "If the locals have Precursor artifacts, you know what to do. And keep on the search for Maia!" The three boys moved away from the rock, not knowing that a Bone Armor Lurker had heard their movement. The three of them traveled to a different section of the island, looking at everything around them. However, none of them were looking at their feet.

"Whoa!" Daxter yelled as he fell to the ground. Jak and Zon looked back before smirking and laughing while Daxter looked back at what he tripped over. He groaned as he picked himself up and took the item into his hands. "Stupid, Precursor junk." Daxter said.

"Hey guys!" Zon said as he stood next to a pool. "Look at this!" Both teens wandered over and peered down the hole full of Dark Eco.

"Yeek. That's a lot of dark ooze!" Daxter said. "Doens't look friendly."

"Don't we know that?" Zon said while crossing his arms, a slight frown on his lips. Jak and Daxter recognized that look that Zon had. It was the same look he had when he thought about Dark Eco and how it can destroy anything if not careful. Including families. Daxter decided to quickly change the subject as he wiped the Precursor object in his hands.

"The Sage yaps on about the Precursors that built this place all the time. 'Where did they go? Why did they build this crap?'" He then tossed the device to Jak while walking towards the dark pool, not seeing Jak catch the device that began glowing in his hands. "Now I like Precursor Orbs and Power Cells as much as the next guy. But if you ask me, they must've been real losers. Whoa!" he yelled when he saw it glowing in Jak's hands.

"How'd that happen?" Zon asked. Jak only shook his head while staring at it before they felt something fall behind them.

"Guys! I think we've got trouble!" Daxter yelled while pointing wildly at the Bone Armor Lurker, who was swinging his club around in a threatening manner.

"We can take this Lurker!" Zon said as he raised his arms up. Jak looked at the Lurker, then at the device in his hands, then angrily at the Lurker before running towards him. "Hey! No hogging the-" he didn't get to finish before Jak threw the device at the Lurker, killing it in an explosion. The shockwave however knocked Jak backwards into Zon, who bumped into Daxter.

"WHOA!" Daxter yelled before he was submerged int he Dark Eco. Zon was struggling to get his balance back so that he wouldn't tumble in, but was luckily saved by Jak grabbing his shirt and pulling him back up.

"Thanks." Zon said before they turned back to the pool. "Daxter!" Zon yelled as they looked at the Dark Eco. They feared the worst before something flew out of the Dark Eco. A tiny strange animal covered in orange fur, fingerless gloves, and goggles on it's head was now lying on the ground. Jak and Zon looked at it before it jumped up and began talking in a voice both of them knew very well.

"Man, that stung!" Daxter said before looking at the two of them and walking towards them. "I told ya we shouldn't have come here! And you listened...what?" he asked when it noticed the wide eyed stares they were giving him. That was when he noticed his hand. His small, furry hand. "WAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" he screamed while hitting the ground. Both Jak and Zon covered their ears as he yelled. "OKAY! Okay! I'm fine! I'm fine!" he said before looking down at himself. "WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!"

-Sandover Village-

The three of them were now walking up the walkway to Samos's hut, where the Green Sage was looking at his plants before he heard the floor creak.

"What in green tarnation do you three want?!" he yelled. Daxter began fumbling with his words before Samos interupted. "Don't tell me! Instead of heeding my wisdom, the three of you went mucking around in the only place I told you not to go! Misty Island!"

"Yeah! And then-"

"And, Daxter, you finally taken a bath. But in a bathtub filled with Dark Eco." Samos said.

"WACKO MAN! Are you gonna keep yappin, or are ya gonna help me outta this mess?!" Daxter yelled.

"I'm gonna keep yappin!" Samos yelled. "Because in my professional opinion, the change is an improvement." Daxter scowled as Samos continued. "Besides, I couldn't turn you back even if I wanted to."

"WHAAAA!?" Daxter yelled.

"There's only one man who's studied Dark Eco long enough to have enough a remote change to changing you back. Gol Acheron the Sage."

"Oh boy!" Zon said as he facepalmed and shook his head.

"Something wrong?" Samos asked.

"We just saw him." Zon said. "He's leading an army of Lurkers on Misty Island."

"He's what?!" Samos yelled. "How could he have gotten them to obey him?!"

"How should we know?" Zon asked.

"Wait! You mean that the guy who can change me back is back on the same island that I got changed into a furball?!" Daxter yelled.

"It seems that there's more going on than we thought." Samos said. "Still, he's the only shot we have. No one has spoken to him in ages aside from Zal and Zon."

"And from what I saw, he's still an antisocial prick." Zon whispered.

"I'd teleport you there, but I'm afraid that none of the other three Sages who manage the Warp Gates have seen fit to turn theirs on for some time now." Samos said. "The only way there is up North, through the Fire Canyon. But it's volcanic soil is hot enough to melt Precursor metal. You can't simply walk on it."

"But you could fly over it, if you have an A-Grav Zoomer equipped with a heat shield." Everyone turned to see Keira standing in the doorway. "I just happen to be working on such a thing at this very moment. All I'd need is 20 Power Cells to power the shield. Right Daddy?"

"Yes. I suppose so." Samos said. "But where are two boys and a rat going to collect 20 Power Cells?"

"From the local villagers, or around in the wild. There's plenty of them out there waiting for some brave adventurer to find them." she said while eyeing Jak, who smiled back.

"Hey. I'm here too." Zon said.

"These boys? Brave adventurers?" Samos asked. "These three have been nothing but a bunch of troublemaking deliquents for as long as we've known them!"

"And they're the only ones who are capable of acquiring the Power Cells we need." Keira said.

"Rrrr. Very well then." Samos said. "And while you're out, make yourselves useful! The Lurkers in the areas have recently been more active lately. Whatever it is they're doing, stop them."

"20 Power Cells, coming right up!" Daxter said.

"Good. Now, GET OUT OF MY HUT!" Samos yelled. Daxter jumped up on Jak's shoulder as Jak and Zon quickly ran out of the hut, thus beginning their grand adventure.
