YAY I updated! If you noticed I've been saying, "The blonde" and "The red head" and spelling Erol, Errol... I want to change a little bit of my grammar a bit. It's getting boring now when I just either say, Erol did blah blah blah, Jak blah blah blah, he blah blah blah, over and over again.
Time went by quickly after that. Things just went smoothly enough to where there weren't a lot of problems. But one day, near when I was supposed to be due, I went to see Errol. The precursors helped me get there, without having to go through the catacombs. In the center of the earth, it was dark, and cool with only the shine of the precursor metal below my feet.
"Errol?" I called out, walking slowly.
I looked around, looking for any sign of his spirit. "I know you're here." I said. "You rang?" I finally heard him say, suddenly popping up in front of me. I jumped, and backed off a step. "Don't startle me like that!" I glared at him. "Sorry." He muttered. "Here." Errol somehow held my shoulder and this time, I didn't exactly fall hard on the precursor metal. My body, I'm guessing thanks to the precursors, appeared in a catacomb car safe and sound. Before I knew it, I was in Errol's arms. "I missed you. Why didn't you come more often?" He asked softly. I sighed, "I have a life, you know. Including Jak." He pulled away and looked at me straight in the eye.
"What's he got that I don't have?"
I rolled my eyes.
"A pulse."
The red head frowned.
"So funny I almost forgot to laugh." I looked down, grinning. Suddenly, I finally noticed my round belly was gone! I wasn't pregnant in the spirit world! How could this be? I gasped, putting my fingers to my lips in disbelief. Automatically, Errol knew why I was so shocked. "Your child isn't alive exactly, so it cannot turn into a spirit. It's fine, and just as alive as you are physically." He smiled. I looked at him and nodded my head in understanding. "I'm due soon." I said softly with a glowing smile. "Oh you are?" He asked. I nodded. "Congratulations." He smiled.
Then, I remembered about the message. I looked at Errol sharply. "One other thing." He came to my attention. "That message you sent a marauder to tell Jak. What the hell was that all about?" He held my hands, cupping them and looked into my eyes. "Laona, I don't want Jak to harm you. I gave him a warning. If he hurts you, I swear by the power of the precursors, I will kill him. To my opinion, that dark eco fr-"
"Errol I understand you're concerned about me, but-"
"Let me talk. I don't think that... Jak is a fit father." I sighed, "Don't think Jak would hurt this child. He is a fit father. He loves me and I love him. He would never kill anyone close to him. You have to understand that I have a boyfriend now. I'm telling you this once. Back off. You're a great friend. That's what I think of you." Errol let go of my hands, and put his hands on his hips. He moved closer, moving his head near mine. "One more kiss? One, last, kiss? I'll back off but..." He said softly. "Ero-" I was beginning to say until he pecked me on the lips. With dissatisfaction, he kissed me again, but a more deep kiss. I backed off, pushing him away slowly. "I have to go." I said with shallow breath. Suddenly I started to feel a painful ache in my abdomen. My physical body started to move around. Subconsciously I started to grown. Both of us turned to my physical body.
"Oh Mar..." I said lowly. Apparently, I was going into labor. Errol's eyes widened.
"Oh... OH!! Ugh...
I can't help you physically uh..." He started to panic, starting to run over to the precursors door. It opened before he could bang on the doors. "We know we know!" One of them shouted, running towards my physical body. The surfer one glared at Errol. "What are you waiting for?! Laona needs to get back into her body!" Dumbfounded, the red head ran over to me and grabbed my wrist. A light glowed where he touched me, and I found myself back in my body. Now the real pain started. My eyes shot open, and I held my belly. The leader precursor, with his staffs power, lifted me up. Our eyes met again, as I twirled around. He slowly waved good-bye, once again.
"Now, Laona I am transporting you directly in front of the Naughty Ottsil. Good luck." The precursor said. I was scared. My body suddenly vanished, and it got dark again. The lead precursor's staff started shedding some light. He looked at Errol, and sighed as he walked back where he once came. I appeared in front of the Naughty Ottsil, just as he promised. I had barely been floating in the air. I groaned, nearly crying silently, holding my belly, running sheepishly towards the entrance. Once I got in, Torn was the only one there. He was just cleaning up. I cried out to him, "Torn! A little help here please!!" As he saw me, his eyes widened.
"Oh! It's time! Oh Mar... Ugh..."
He ran up to me, and helped me sit down somewhere. He grabbed his communicator. "Someone get a transport pad! We need to get to the hospital ASAP!" I grabbed his hand, held it awkwardly. He glanced over at me, and changed the interception.
"Jak! Get over here at the Naughty Ottsil!"
"What! Why?! I'm getting Daxter from Spargus, can this wait I'm just about to get on the trans pad."
"Your girlfriend is in labor! Do you think it can wait?" He laughed.
"OMG are you serious? I'll be there ASAP!!" He screamed.
Jak turned around quickly and ran towards the Naughty Ottsil. He wasn't that far, because he was still in the city. The automatic doors shot open as he sprinted inside. I was breething deeply, with my back leaning on Torns chest. "Laona?" Jak asked, walking quickly over towards me. I looked at him and smiled. "I'm so glad you're here." I said.
"I've already called an ambulance. They'll be here any minute." Torn said, putting a damp rag over my forehead. Jak looked at him. "I'll take it from here. Thanks." Torn nodded, and Jak took his place. One of the medics walked into the room, and he immediately me. "Miss, come with us now. Everything's going to be ok." A slight sigh of relief filled the room.
DUH DUH DUN DUH! lol I'm gettin' a little lazy when it comes to writing chapters. You've noticed they have been getting shorter. I'm gonna fix that soon.
UGH! I'm sick, and I've godda cold. I woke up this morning with a runny nose. Then I was sneezing up a storm. I started getting a little fever. Then I took some medicine and I'm feeling better. Still feel a little sick, but not bad. I'm usually amune to sickness.
BELIEVE ME. When I was younger, I had the WORST case of everything! Chicken Pox, somethin' else.. This one sickness thing whre my gums were SO SORE, my appetite was gone and I couldn't eat anything real solid. I lost a lot of weight.
With chicken pox at 6... I was dumb and I picked off a few from my forehead, and I'm paying for it for life. I have 3 visable round scars on my forehead now. I call them astroids, lol anyway that was the chapter.
