Trust and Betrayal

Inu65: well, it's me…..again….

Jak: *sarcastically* Yeeeaay……

Inu65: well, don't have any reviews at the moment. That makes me sad. =( well, I'm just gonna start written then.

Wait…just got one!

Fire Storm: OMG!!! I DIDN'T NOTICE THAT UNTIL NOW! I meant to have it Queen, Nate, Torn!! Oh my god! And this chapter has stuff about Blaze. Rayme's coming later.

Trust and Betrayal Chapter 3, It Seemed Like a Dream

"Yeah…..two years ago…." Blaze said, looking to the floor. "What do you mean?" Rayme said. Blaze closed her eyes and sat for a moment. "Blaze……come on Blaze…..tell me, please? You never told me anything about you're past, other than you fell and broke your ankle in the Guard." Rayme said.

The two heard voices coming down the hall. "Gees, man. You really need that checked out! It doesn't look healthy!" a voice said. "I'll live." another voice answered. Blaze and Rayme heard a door open and slam shut, the foot steps of them inside their room, and a loud thump as one of them fell onto their bed.

"Come on Blaze….tell me!" Rayme urged. Blaze sighed heavily. "Ok fine. I'll tell." she said taking a deep breath. Rayme pulled up a chair and listened in.

"I never had a childhood. My mom died when I was really small and my dad used to beat me. When I was 18, I joined the Krimzon Guard, but not without killing that bastard father of mine. I was the head weapon specialist and people say I have to be one of the most talented guns men of this time, but I couldn't crave my lust of killing. All those years of being beaten, being helpless, crying in the dark, fearing my father and wishing my mother hadn't died. All those things built up inside me, and the only way for me to relieve the pain, was to kill people." Blaze began, closing her eyes again, not wanting to cry, but the tears stung, wanting to over flow from her blue eyes. "Even though I specialized with the gun, that's not what the used me for. I had to help torture this poor boy, and study his reactions to Dark Eco. I've always loved to see people suffer at the end of my Hell Raiser of my Peace-Keeper, but not like this. I cried every night, wishing that it was all a terrible dream that I would soon wake up from, and be beaten by my father."

The people in the other room could hear what was being said through the walls. Both kept an ear pressed to the wall to hear all, being extremely quiet.

"One night, I couldn't take it anymore. I had to help him. I went to the place where the kept him, and untied on of his leg straps. But another Guard came and caught me off guard, so I had to lie. After he left, I went, forgetting about one strap undone. When I got back to my room, Praxis was there and he told me I got to do the honors. Although I found no honor in it. The next day, I went down and was ready to risk my life for that boy, I was ready to set him free and distract the Guards so he could get away, but that's not what happened." Blaze said swallowing hard, a stray tear rolling down her face. "Praxis was there and showed me how to work the machine. I will never forget the look in the boy's eyes, that thrill of hope that shone, then, the look of hatred and betrayal as I turned the lever to allow Dark Eco surge through his veins. His cries, his screams, I can't get them out of my head. They haunt me, and will forever do so." Blaze said, choking on tears. She lost the fight to keep her tears in, and she began to sob heavily, hot tears streaming down her tattooed face.

"Blaze….it's ok……" Rayme said trying to comfort Blaze, but nothing worked.

"Jak…..is that what you were talking about earlier in the bar?" Daxter asked quietly. Jak gritted his teeth, trying to keep his anger inside.

"He kicked his loose leg, and shattered my ankle. That's the truth about my ankle…….after that, I was told I probably couldn't walk after that, so I was released from the Krimzon Guard. Why they didn't kill me, I'm not sure. They released me a year and a half ago. I was certain that the boy had died. I'm terribly happy that he's alive, but my only fear now, is that he's going to live up to what he said to me that day when I betrayed him. I'm afraid that he's going to take revenge in the only way he knows how……death." Blaze finished.

"Oh….I didn't know. I see why you never told me. I'm sorry I made you bring up painful memories. I didn't mean to-" "It's ok. I'd never forget. His words are scarred into my memory, and my ankle…….that'll never heal. That's why I can't wear boots, but I have to go bare foot." Blaze said. She smirked. "It's amazing how grownup he looks…..just two years too. Well….1.5 years for me at least." she added.

The two in the other room stepped away from the wall, and Jak sat on the bed. "Jak, you ok pal?" Daxter asked, seeing Jak grab his burned hand. "You're hand hurtin ya?" Daxter asked again, watching Jak massage his hand a bit. He still didn't answer, but Daxter could tell he was deep in thought. 'What's he thinking about. It's not like him to think this long. AND HE'S NOT JUST GIVING ME THE SILENT TREATMENT CAUSE I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO HIM!! WHY THE HELL IS HE SO DAMN QUIET!?!' Daxter thought. "Jaaaak…..talk ta me. Come on pal." Jak still didn't answer, but fell on his back and closed his blue eyes. 'Ch…..that's just great. He's gonna go ta sleep on me……might as well do the same thing…..' Daxter thought curling up on Jak's chest. (AAAAWWE! I JUST HAD TA PUT IT IN!)

Blaze laid on her bed, and turned onto her side, facing the wall. She buried her head into the down pillows and pulled the comforter over her head. Rayme still sat on the chair, and turned her head towards the door. She sighed heavily and climbed up to the top bunk. "Well, we had a very fun day……I really like your friend Torn. He's an ok guy." Rayme said. Blaze sighed heavily. "Yeah, but I guess we was really busy, otherwise he would have talked more." Blaze said. "That's ok. You know, he kinda reminds me of someone…..I don't know. Maybe it's because I grew up with Erol." Rayme said. "You grew up with Erol? HE'S A FUCKING SHOW OFF! Plus he's an asshole." Blaze. "I thought I told you I did!" Rayme said leaning over the side of her bunk. "You did? Oh, oops! Forgot!" Blaze said smiling, her eyes shining. "You forget too easily!" "SO WHAT?!" "Never mind….." "WHAT?!" "I said never mind!" "RAYME! TELL ME!! IT'S YOUR TURN TO TELL! I ALREADY TOLD YOU!" Blaze shouted. Rayme rolled her eyes and laid on her bunk. "I'll tell ya tomorrow, ok? We have to get some sleep, cause we've got a big day tomorrow." Rayme said closing her eyes. "Like what?" "Driving lessons….." Rayme said. "DRIVING LESSONS?!?!?! OOOH, NO! Rayme don't you remember the last time you tried to teach me how to drive? PEOPLE WERE KILLED, INJURED, THINGS WERE DESTROYED, THINGS THAT COSTED HUNDREDS HAD TO BE REPLACED!!" Blaze shouted. "Too bad. Blaze needs driving lessons." with that, Rayme shut the lamp off above her bunk and went to sleep.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~End

Inu65: sorry for the really short chap. Couldn't think of anything else.

Jak: thank god…..

Blaze: on time at band camp this kid……blew up. It was cool.

Rayme: WHAT THE HELL?! THAT DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH….oh never mind….

Inu65: ok, next cha-

Jak: NOOOOOOOO!!! I WANNA GIVE IT!!

Dark Jak: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! THEY'RE ALL GOING TO LAUGH AT YOU!!!! NOOOO! THEY'RE ALL GOING TO LAUGH AT YOU!!!

Inu65: you stole that from Nicholas at school didn't you…..that time you followed me……*mumbles 'god damned stalker monkey…..'*

Dark Jak: *nod, nod, nod*

Inu65: fine….Jak go ahead and give the preview thingy.

Jak: yes…..

Dark Jak: NOOO! THEY'RE ALL GOING TO-GAAAAAH!!! *falls into pit of rabid fan girls on crack*

Preview!: Well, the truth comes out. Doesn't matter what she says, I'm still going to kill her for what she did. Anyway, this doesn't sound good. From what me Dax had heard, Blaze is a reckless driver! It might be fun to see her kill herself that way. I would get my revenge none the less. Next time on Trust and Betrayal, Driving Lessons and Secrets To Tell! and go leave me alone. I've had a rough day…… *gets hit in the head by a bowling ball the size of Russia* @_@
