Alpha: Wow it's been forever sense I've updated on this story.
Dax: Yeah no kidding. Thanks for caring you jerk!
Alpha: Hey watch it fucker, you're lucky I didn't have your ass skinned in the first chapter!
Dax: Hmph!
Tye: Ouch man. Alpha, go get him some ice.
Dax: Huh? What for?
Tye: That burn she just gave you!
Dax: What burn? –Looks self over-
Alpha: Now damnit Dax! That's it you're not allowed near my disclaimers anymore!
Dax: Why not?
A&T: 'Cause you ruined the damn comedy about it!
Torn: Alpha does not own the Jak saga.
Alpha: Hey wait for the damn sequel before you start poppin' up jackass!
Tye: Yeah! Now you might have confused some people!
Torn: … no screw that man.
The new girl pushed herself off the wall and starts walking over to Samos. "All I would need is twenty power cells to give it enough energy," Daxter poses but she ignores him and continues, "to withstand the canyons heat. Isn't that right daddy?"
"WHHHAAATT?" Tye and I screamed out in shock. "The gramps is your dad? Holy shit! Just how old are you?" I asked him getting in his face. Tye was looking back and forth between the two in awe.
Samos tries to hit me with his staff but I jump out of the way. Hey this whole new senses thing I have is pretty awesome. But I still have that buzzing feeling in the back of my head. Then I remembered what happened at Misty Island. I'll experiment later now I have to focus on the conversation. "Yes Keira that might work but where are a boy and a half," he hits Daxter on his head. Ouch that sounded like it hurt. Obviously he was letting out his anger from Tye and I into that smack too. "Going to get twenty power cells?"
Ah that would be my queue to show off my smarticles. "The villagers should have some right?" I continued before Keira could get the words out of her mouth to respond. That was a rhetorical question bitch. "I'm sure if you trade them something in equal or so value they should be willing to part with one or two. Not only that, but there should be more of them, out in plain ass sight, just waiting for some brave adventurer to find." At the end I winked at Jak. He blushed and smiled a shy smile back. Aw so cute!
"Well we've got the brave adventurer at least." Daxter said pointing to himself. I gave a completely mature snort of sarcastic disbelief.
"Brave adventurer my ass." Tye said from his lazy position across my shoulders.
"Tye and I would be willing to help also." I said smiling at Jak.
"The hell we will!" Tye said shooting up bracing his weight on his hands. This of course put him in the perfect position to glare directly into my face. Damn him. "What happened to the self proclaimed lazy ass bitch?"
"Shut. Up."
"Ok."
"Brave adventurer?" Samos asked in a condescending tone floating up to the ceiling. "You four couldn't find your way out of the village without training."
Well you didn't have to go that far with it you jerk. "That's cold gramps." I said and pointed to my heart. "That hurt right here man. You hurt my heart!" He just rolled his eyes and I heard him mutter something like 'oh please.'
He flips upside down in front of us causing us all to look at each other weirded out. "Before you do anything else you better go through the warp gate and get some practice on Geyser Rock."
Daxter walked up to Samos. "Eh we won't find any of that dark, gooey, eco stuff will we? 'Cause I already look like him," He points to Tye who flips him off, "and I'd hate to fall in again and look like you!"
"Wow that would be bad." I said looking at Tye.
"A crying shame." He agreed nodding his head in shame. Jak stood back and laughed at us.
Samos dropped back on the ground. "Get in there before I turn you all into ferns!" He yelled pissed off motioning to the warp gate. "Oh and Krys I'm going to trust you with this." He hands me a device. It's like a touch screen cell phone. "It tells you all of the items you need in an area and how many you have out of those items."
"Sweetness," I said and put it in my back pocket. Jak runs in first without hesitation. Next was Daxter with a cheesy smile. Last was Tye and I. We jumped through, Tye screaming like a little bitch in my ear the whole time. Jak walked over and the buzzing got louder. Thinking back to all the comic books and science fiction movies that have had the fortune of interring my brain I decided to grab at the buzzing. Suddenly Jak's voice was booming in my head. 'Is she okay? She's just been staring into space for the past five minutes.'
I jumped and then still holding onto that buzz I thought, 'I'm fine Jak just thinking out a new, well power I guess you could call it.' He looked shocked before I heard his voice again.
'K-Krys? You can hear my thoughts?'
'Yepperz, pretty kick ass huh?'
'Yeah it's amazing. It's well nice to finally be able to communicate with people, with my voice that is.'
'I get ya. Now let's explore some shall we?'
'Yes let's.' He offers his arm like one of those stuffy rich guys and I of course, it's the chance to act like an idiot, take his arm. Tye and Dax just stare at us in confusion as they watch us walk off.
"Ok, what the hell is going on?" Tye and Dax ask as they run after us and jumped on their respective best friend's shoulders.
'Think we should tell them?' I asked Jak with a smirk.
'Nah let's have them guess for a while.'
'Ooh so mean. You know you're pretty much perfect for me luv.' I said and left him alone as we came up on some boxes and a floating machine came out.
"This device is a communicator," Keira's voice came from it; "with it my father and I can give you advice at any time during your quest." Yes that's nice now go away. We look forward and see three brown wooden boxes. I look them over and there's no latch or anything to open it. Jak breaks them with a punch and six little green balls of eco fall out. We grab them and all of a sudden I feel regenerated. Green eco was health if I remember what the old man said.
There is three ledges in front of us. On the first ledge is four egg shaped things, one on the second, and one on the third. "Those floating egg things are precursor orbs. Hey if we collect enough of them we could trade them for power cells from the villagers!"
"Yes what an amazing idea Dax. I wish I had come up with it." I said sarcasm practically dripping from my words.
"Well we can't all have great minds." He says and goes to walk away. Jak quickly holds me back before I could strangle the little fucker.
'Calm down. Don't get upset just because he's being and id-,' I was about to ask him what was wrong but I couldn't stop laughing when I saw Tye stomping Daxter's head into the ground. Jak and I walked forward and grabbed our fuzzy dudes and jumped up the ledges. At the top are four more orbs. We grab them and ignore the dummies that are littered over the area. There are two more eco boxes and I break them this time and grab the five green eco clusters.
In front of us is a row of spikes and there are three orbs over them, with a glowing gold object on the other side. I jump over the spikes along with Jak while Tye tries to take down the dummies on the two ledges on either side of us. "That is a power cell. It is one of the most important precursor artifacts out there. Keira said we need twenty of them to power the heat shield for the zoomer." Daxter informed.
I pull out the device that Samos gave me and look through it. So far we have 1 /4 power cells, 0/7 scout flies, and 13/50 precursor orbs. "What in the hell are 'Scout flies'?" Tye asked. I shrugged as did Jak and Daxter. They had been reading over my shoulder. We headed forward where there were once again spikes. Yyyaaayyyy. Psh, not.
After we jump over the spikes we see a few ledges and jumping red boxes n said ledges. A whirling sound came from the boxes. Jak goes over and tries to punch the boxes open but they won't break. I then see the top of the box is flimsier than the sides so I 'jump dive' onto the red box and a fly like machine comes out of it. "Hey you found one of my scout flies. I sent seven of them to each are to look for power cells, but the lurkers must have captured them all." Keira said before the communicator went away quickly.
There was a box on the first ledge, two on the second, one on the top, one two ledges down, and one at the bottom. Jak and I randomly broke the boxes till he broke the last one and a power cell popped up when he grabbed the fly. Tye and Dax did a little victory dance as Jak put the power cell in his bag. I broke four more eco boxes and put the eco clusters in a small bag. The only issue is that it only holds up to two hundred eco balls. We need fifty to heal.
My head snapped to the left when I heard Tye scream. Apparently he was fuckin' around with one of the dummies and fell over the edge. We all jumped down after him and saw some more boxes and orbs. But what really caught my attention was this ball of crackling blue energy. 'Hey, Jak, what's that?' Before he could answer, Samos's voice blasts from the communicator. "That's blue eco which contains the energy of motion. Blue eco allows you to run faster, break boxes, and even activates son precursor artifacts when you get near them." 'Never mind,' I said and if I had been in an anime I would have had a sweat drop.
Jak just shakes his head and he, with Daxter still on his should, walks over and touches the eco. His eyes widen and it's almost like he's on crack. Don't ask how I know, too long of a story. He then takes off and leaves Tye and I in the dust, the bastard. Anyway we run, well I run, after him and see a door. "This is a precursor door. It can only be opened by approaching the door while channeling blue eco through your body." Samos said again. 'How the hell does he know what we're doing? He's a creepy old stalker, perv! I knew it!' Jak starts chuckling and motions to the blue eco shooting up from the ground.
Sweet my turn! I walk across the bridge and pick up the three orbs on my way across and stop in front of the eco. "I bet it's just like the time we did crack." Tye said in a calm voice. I shrug and go to step into it but Keira's voice stops me.
"That's a blue eco vent. More concentrated than the floating clusters, this vent will give you a full charge of blue eco letting you use it for the maximum time." Gee thanks, buh-bye now. I step into the vent and feel full of energy I just had to move. So I run to the door and feel the energy go from me and see it go to the door. There was a ledge and a power cell. Then I look down and see a pool of water and I jumped in. All of the orbs that were around me came to me and Tye caught them and put them in the pouch we have. There was a second splash from Jak and Dax.
We got out and on land. Jak ran his hands through his hair to get the water out while Tye, Dax, and I just shook the access water out. Jak just laughed at me and I couldn't help the blush that decided to take a little vacation on my cheeks. Damnit, and now Tye's laughing at me. "Gr, what the hell are you laughing at?" I yelled and threw him back in to the water.
"AH! You bitch!" I just stuck my tongue out at him and walked away after Jak. He had gone towards these three brass pillars. Then we jumped to a ledge with another pillar and three orbs at the top. There was a wooden bridge, that I ended up drop kicking Daxter across cause he was being a perv, that connected to a ledge with another pillar with three more orbs at the top. Then we hopped up on a ledge with eight green eco balls on it. Daxter got those for the headache I gave him from the kick.
Once again there is a bridge that leads to, once again, a ledge. There were some more spikes to jump over and two pillars with seven orbs. We had to jump to one piece of land to another. The second one had the last power cell we needed and a blue eco ball. "What the hell is this thing?" Tye asked jumping up and down on this floating platform thing. I shrugged and stepped on it with him. Suddenly the lightning bolt on the top of it turned on and it activated. It startled Tye and I so bad that we fell off the edge and to the ground.
We looked up to see Jak and Daxter on it and it floating to the warp gate. They had their heads over the edge. Jak looked worried and apologetic. Daxter… well Daxter being the sweetheart he is was pointing and laughing at us. Tye and I gave them the one finger salute before putting our faces back to the ground in pain.
back in hut
Jak and I come out of the warp gate and land on our feet fine. Suddenly Jak ducks and my face has its hourly meeting with the ground. I feel a fluff ball on my head and toss it across the room and then glare at Jak along with Daxter. I guess that means I threw Tye. Oops I had hoped it was Dax. 'Heh, Heh, sorry.' Jak says and gives us an apologetic look. He was so cute that I felt a blush coming up and I turned away grumbling about my stupid blush disorder so he wouldn't notice. Sense I was turned away I didn't see his happy smile.
"Good training but that's nothing compared to the challenges that lie ahead." Samos said floating in front of us.
Daxter stepped forward and acts severely nonchalant and looks at his finger nails, "Ah there's no problem. We've got the moves aye Jak? We'd love to stay and chat big green but were itching to get on with our adventures."
"Wow Daxter you should really work on that low self esteem issue of yours." I said sarcastically and leaned my elbow on Jak shoulder.
Tye snorted and said, "Or you can just pull that stick outta your ass," before jumping on my shoulder. The sudden weight made me fall forward. I shut my eyes and waited for my next date with the floor. Hey maybe he'll get to second base this time. That thought was cut short when I felt strong arms catch me.
'The hell?'
'Careful there, are you ok?' I looked up and choked on the sudden rush of air that I had inhaled from a gasp of surprise. 'Hey breathe!' Jak yelled at me through my coughing fit.
'That's what tried to kill me!'
Tye just kicked me on my back and I coughed once more before I was fine. Great way to ruin a what would have been a perfect shojo moment… dumbass.
"Fine, fine 'adventure away," Samos said continuing as if nothing had happened. Thanks you jerk. "And while you're out adventuring," insert air quotes here, "why don't you make yourselves useful?" This of course was a rhetorical question. I mean does he really expect us to say no? Hey! Another rhetorical question! "My darn green eco collectors are clogged up again."
Tye makes a disgusted face, "TMI old man."
"You know I think they make a medicine for that." I also said just for the hope of pissing the old fart off. He glares at us and tries to hit us in the head with his staff. Sorry man but that privilege is saves for rafiki.
"Head up to the far side of the beach and clear the out, why don't you? Follow the lamps they'll lead you right there. "Now all of you," he says really calm before going ape shit on us, "GET OUT OF HERE!"
"Oh shit!" I yelled in fright as I fell out the door and off the ledge I had been standing next to when he decided to scare the shit outta me by yelling OUT OF FUCKING NO WHERE!
