Author's note: Hi everyone, this is Tigre. This is my first story to ever be published, so please be nice if you comment. Remember anything in parentheses & italicized, ex:(Tigre Note: Look up "The Hanging Tree" on You Tube) means that in order to get the full feeling of a scene, you must open up another tab & look up whatever it says in the parentheses. Now don't you worry, this chapter won't (hopefully) be as slow as the first one. Stuff I own: All my OCs & plot idea Stuff I don't own: Any & all Jak & Daxter, & Spyro character/references. So here we go.
Jak's P.O.V.
Warmth, I feel it, warmth spreading across my body, encasing my body in it's invisible fingers. I open my eyes to see that I'm flying high above strange tree tops & a golden river. I take a deep breathe in through my nose, smelling the warm, sweet scent of summer. Very fast do these foreign trees zip by, & as I continue to look at them, I notice something strange about these trees. What I notice is that these trees aren't even trees at all, they are gigantic mushrooms! Huge mushrooms with great, round stems & even larger, spotted,light brown tops. Few actual trees dot the landscape.
I swoop down to where I could touch the mushroom tops, & look into the river at my reflection. What I see staring back at me isn't me though. I see a large, reptilian creature with wings... with my skin, eye, & even hair color. This creature's hide is covered with ragged yellow stripes. The underbelly, hand claws, horns, & tail spike were all black. Its wing membrane, however, was light blue, so bright of a blue it reminded me of light eco. On its chin, a small, green & yellow frill-type grew from where my goatee should have been. As I do a small barrel roll in the air, I managed to catch a glimpse of what abnormalities resided on my back. A red & green, frill-like crest ran down my spine, starting at the top of my head, running in between my four horns, all the way to where my midnight black tail spike started. From where the ragged, yellow strips originate, I see a single, solid, smooth-edged, medium blue stripe runs from nose to tail spike.
I look up in the direction of what I'm flying towards. I see a mountain range looming in the distance. Though I am traveling very fast, I doubt I would make it to the mountain range in a single day. As I observe the montain, I decide to get a better look at my hands. As soon as I lift my right hand, the first thing I notice is that I still have five fingers, but these fingers are short & stubby, but very muscular. I try to see if my claws are like an ottsel's, & extend my claws. Sure enough, more of my claws show themselves. These wicked, black blades protruding from my finger tips have thousands of tiny, sharp serrations. "Man, it would suck getting hit by one of these," I think to myself. I then notice that the underside of each finger, & my palm has a paw-pad like formation on it. Surrounding these pads, & peaking between my fingers is the color of the underside of my hands, which is the same medium blue the stripe on my back was.
I'm interrupted from my curious observations when the sound of other sets of wings flapping reach my none-existent ears, which I'm guessing are only skin covered holes in my head, somewhere near my horns. I look to my left to see another reptilian creature flying next to me. Its pitch black skin, pure white horns, eco green eyes, braided red & blue hair, & what appeared to be silver armor glistening in the summer sun. Its eyes sparkle gently at me, almost lovingly. It smiles at me, its smile very human, & not freaky like what you would think would think coming from a reptile. I then notice just how large this other creature is. The thing is about my height, without the tail. I smile back at it, for some reason sheepishly.
I then turn my head towards the sound of another set of wings flapping, these sounding much larger than the first creature's wings. When I first catch sight of this other creature, at first I think it was the same creature I saw before. On closer inspection, I see that this creature is infact much larger than the first one I saw, but still very similar to it in appearance. Only very few differences are noticeable between the two creatures. This creature is black, has green eyes, & the same number & structure of horns as the first one, but this creature is larger, older appearing, has no hair on its head, & only has armer around a small section of its neck, tail, wrists, & ankles. It looks at me with a motherly glint in its eye, yet a slightly almost annoyed tinge to it.
I hear a third set of wings above me, & I look up to see the pale, dingy colored, yellow underbelly of another winged reptile. It looks down at me, & immediately gives me a gentle smile. This creature's skin & eyes are both purple, its gentle eyes only a few shades brighter than its skin. On its head are only two, angled, orange horns. Between these horns is a orange & yellow crest that from the looks of it continues down its back. This creature is again, larger than the first one, & isn't wearing any armor. I then return my gaze to the first creature that I saw. It looks at me again, & smiles. After a few seconds, it opens its mouth as if to say something, but what comes out isn't even words. A loud, rapid beeping fills the air as the feeling of warmth & this bright shining world begins to deteriorate, fading to a deep black abyss.
I open my eyes, to see that I am lying on my couch. As the fact that all those creatures were just the product of my unconscious mind, I notice that the beeping at the end of my dream is still present. I look over to the coffee table to see something I haven't seen in a long time. My old Underground communicator is going off, meaning I finally have something to do. I look at a message on the communicator to see it's from Torn. "Hey Jak, I need you to come down to the Freedom League HQ asap. This is important, so hurry up" the message reads. I quickly get up, grab my still loaded morph gun, & head out the door, ready & happy to do anything.
Author's Note: Whew, so that was fun. I think this chapter definitely turned out better than the first one. Tell me what you guys think, cause I'm open to anything (except for really cruel criticism). Well, please review, & btw, you don't need a account to comment if you didn't know that already. Well, until next time. Tigre out!
