I ride after it on my JetBoard, I chase it for about thirty minutes. Every time I get close to grabbing my pack, the animal jumps on a different ledge, and sticks its tongue out at me! This thing is so angering! After a whole hour, I can tell it's tiring, and so am I. Soon, it stops, and throws me my pack, then goes to drink some water from the river and swim a bit. I face-palm and shake my head. The animal's not even that different from Daxter, who is always stealing my JetBoard and running off with it. I get takes out of my thought when I get drenched in water. Seriously?! I just got dry again. I look over and see the animal rolling on the ground in laughter.
"So that's how you want to play?" I ask, and throw mud at it. The mud lands on it's snout, and is shakes its head in disgust. It goes back and washes its snout, then throws more water on me using its right wing. By now, I feel like I just climbed out of water. Next time, if Torn doesn't discover that I've came here, I'm definitely bringing a towel. I hear some rustling a few feet away in a bush, and see a Metalhead come out and pounce at me. It lands on me, knocking me down, leaving me to wrestle with it. It's not one of the regular metalheads, it's one of the digging and jumping ones. What is it doing here? the last time I saw one of these is in the ruins of the stadium. I feel it get ripped off of me and I hear a smash. I shake my head and look and see the animal has crushed the Metalhead's head, ad is now ripping out the gem. It looks at the gem a second, and throws it to me. I catch it, then see that the animal is walking back to the tallest hill, probably to go back to sleep. Well, I'm soaked and I have to go back to the Naughty Ottsel like this. Great, just great. Wait until I have to explain this to Torn. He's gonna be ticked. I decide to walk to the airlock to dry off quicker. On my way there, I get a call from Sig.
"Hello Cherries, I need you in the Wasteland. Somethin' big's goin' down with these Metalheads." says Sig, then he hangs up.
"Great I don't even have to go back to the Naughty Ottsel." I mumble to myself.
When I get into the port, I take out my JetBoard and board across the water. Then, I hear that voice.
"JAK?! WERE YOU GONNA LEAVE ME HERE?!" Daxter yells from the side. Wow, I completely forgot about him for a minute there.
"Sorry Dax, I must have forgotten." I say, boarding over to him.
"Well, don't forget about me again!" he yells. He hops onto the JetBoard and I continue going to the transport.
"Where are we goin'?" asks Dax.
"Sig said we have a Metalhead problem in the wasteland." I reply.
"Ugh, more Metalheads? Why can't they just give us a break or something." asks Dax.
"I don't think we're ever gonna get a break from them. You know, unless we all just become friends, like that will ever happen." I say.
We get into to transport and fly back to the desert. I walk into the garage and see Sig waiting for me.
"Well there you two are. Now, lets go get these puppies." says Sig, getting ready on the turret on the top of out regular vehicle.
"What exactly are we going to be dealing with?" I ask.
"Lots and lots of those big Metalheads. We don't need them takin' over our desert, now do we?" asks Sig. I smirk and start up the vehicle. Time to destroy some Metalheads"
