Okay so I published two chapters in one night. They're short so I figured it was a good idea. I don't want to stretch this first book out too much. No where over six or so chapters, but I doubt it will make it to that. Anyway, here is chapter two.

-Alexis

They took her back to the village to see if they could get her some help. She didn't talk, though Daxter blathered on to her about this and that. She clung to Jak's hand yet, not letting go and staying close to his side. Finally they reached the village and made their way to the Village Elder, Samos's, hut. Samos was just talking to a flower he had inside and when the three of them took a step in he turned, a grouchy expression on his face. His mouth opened but then he closed it, eyes focusing on the girl. He moved closer, studying her. His face held confusion for a moment, taking in her appearance. He didn't say anything for a long moment though and she ducked behind Jak a little, as if scared. Her half-turned, trying to assure her that everything was alright but Samos spoke.

"Who is she?" he asked.

"We don't know" Daxter answered, his tone smart. "That may be the reason we brought her to you" That earned him a clonk on the head from Samos's staff. The girl brought a hand to her lips and giggled. Jak looked over at her, noting that was the first noise she had made. She even stepped out from behind him, to stand by him. She lowered her hand quickly, squeezing Jak's hand with her other hand when Samos's eyes moved to her. Then she let go.

"Ah...You're not from this village are you?" Asked Samos and she shrugged, that fear in her eyes again, a frown on her lips. Samos paused a moment, thinking. "Can you speak?"

"Uh...Uh...yes" Her voice was quiet, low, shy. "I...I have no idea...I'm so...confused...I don't remember...anything" She seemed to gain confidence as she spoke. Jak glanced at Daxter, wondering what he thought of this girl. Daxter grinned.

"Anything?" Now Samos's eyebrows scrunched over his eyes, making him look worried. Maybe confused at the very least.

"Nothing" she frowned. "...But...someone was saying...saying...Blaise...Telling Blaise to be careful" She thought about that for a long moment. The others seemed to notice her thinking and they were silent. "Is...Do you think...Blaise...is me?" Her tone was confused and soft. There was fear, confusion along with other emotions in her voice. Daxter scratched his head.

"I dunno, maybe. Blaise would fit with that flaming hair of yours!" Samos clonked Daxter on the head again and he gave the old man an angry look. He turned to the girl again.

Samos nodded at her. "Most likely and someone was trying to tell you to be careful. Do you remember anything else?" He prompted her to try and recall anything. She frowned and shook her head. Daxter moved out of clonking distance before speaking.

"It doesn't matter does it?" Samos shot him a look when the girl's face fell. Daxter looked upset, so clearly that was not his intent. Samos quickly tried to clean up the mess Daxter had made.

"It's not your fault." Samos's face became thoughtful. "Why not stay in this village? Outside the village there are Lurkers and other dangerous creatures that would hurt you. It'd be best if you stayed here. There's a place you can stay here and call it a home until you remember where you really came from"

"Ah...Oh...d-do you really mean it? I mean...you don't know me...I-I don't expect you to give me a home..."

"Well you have no where else to go, so you might as well stay here. Who knows, maybe you can keep these two out of trouble" His eyes darted to Jak and Daxter who both supplied impish grins. "Anyway, you're welcome to stay here as long as you like Blaise."

And that was how Blaise came to be a part of their lives.
