There's always that nagging feeling that this isn't right. Always that instinct that says "NO!" to anything new or different, but what happens if you resist that gut feelings? What if you tell it that you are exactly the same? Fate won't always be so lenient…

--------

It was such a wonderful kiss, such soft lips. It felt so much like a dream that Rallis thought he was in heaven until Jak pulled away. Rallis looked at him worriedly, but Jak seemed content. There wasn't any sadness in his eyes anymore.

"Thank you," Jak whispered softly, leaning his head against Rallis' chest.

"I love you…" Rallis admitted, holding Jak against him for comfort and support. Once that was said, Jak looked up at him in surprise.

"We've only just met…" Jak replied looking at him almost confused.

"I don't care! I loved you the moment I saw you!" Rallis exclaimed softly, putting his lips to Jak's once again to lock into a powerful but gentle kiss. It seemed to last forever, but then someone burst into the room.

"What are you doing!" Ashelin cried out in what seemed like horror.

Jak was so startled he fell to the floor and Rallis looked at her with a surprised expression. Ashelin looked very pissed but from what she saw, it didn't seem like Ashelin was attracted to him at all so what did she have to get angry about?

"What's the matter?" Rallis cried out, standing up.

"You just wanted him for yourself didn't you! That's why you killed Torn! This was just a set-up you devious daemon!" Ashelin cried out.

"What are you talking about? Torn was helping the vampires create an army of undead to kill everyone! Besides, I'm not using Jak!" Rallis yelled at him, his temper certainly rising. Ashelin opened her mouth to say more but someone cut her off.

"Are you jealous Ashelin? Jealous that you could never have me? That I began to like guys instead of you?" Jak said venomously, a dark look in his eyes. Ashelin's eyes widened in disbelief.

"What—no! It-it's not like that Jak! I…I'm just worried about you, you're out of one relationship and into another…I just thought…I thought that he was trying to hurt you!" Ashelin shot back, her eyes brimming with unshed tears. At those words she ran out of the house, crying softly into the night.

"That was slightly harsh…" Rallis said critically, looking at Jak with a raised eyebrow. Jak made a quite disgusted face before he answered.

"She's always been after me. She tried to ruin things with me and Keira and when she died, Ashelin was all over me. I had no time to mourn. I was lucky that Tess was crazy about Daxter…one less woman to worry about jumping all over me. They left a few years ago, and since all these problems starting cropping up, they haven't been able to see me…I miss Daxter, he was my best friend." Jak replied softly, his eyes suddenly distant, as if reminiscing. A hand on his shoulder woke him from his reverie.

"Don't worry Jak, we will beat them in time and everything will be back to normal…although I doubt I will be going back home…" Rallis said, looking straight into Jak's eyes. Jak finally smiled, looking at Rallis with a sincere emotion in his eyes. Love.

Rallis turned to leave but was stopped by a hand on his arm. "Would you please stay?" Jak pleaded

Rallis looked at him. He knew Jak needed someone right now. Rallis smiled and nodded, following Jak into the bedroom to drift into a peaceful sleep, encased in each other's arms.

--Morning--

The sound of something like cannon fire woke them abruptly from their peaceful slumber. Rallis had been so deep in a dream that he had fallen out of the bed, hard on his ass. Jak chuckled softly at Rallis and got a glare in return.

"What was that?" Rallis asked, slightly shaken.

"It sounded like the turret going off; maybe something is attacking the city…" Jak replied, standing to get dressed.

"Should we go check it out?" Rallis asked.

"Of course…" Jak said is a voice that clearly said 'duh!'

Rallis looked at him funny then led the way outside only to stop since he had no idea where to go. Jak smiled at him and showed him the way to the turret which they found was being used by Ryva. There wasn't anything to be attacked, he was just practicing. Jak shook his head and climbed to the cockpit.

"Ryva! You think it's earlier enough to do this?" Jak yelled at the brown-haired elf, over the noise of the turret.

"I'm sorry! Did I wake you?" Ryva smiled sheepishly, turning the gun off. Jak gave him the evil eye and climbed down, Ryva trailing after.

"Hey Rallis! I heard what happened with Torn and the other vampire. It's tragic to think he was part of it." Ryva said with a now serious tone.

"I guess it was—" Rallis was suddenly cut off by a loud explosion. People were screaming all around and burning pieces of metal were flying in the air.

"By the gods!" Rallis breathed when he saw the root of the explosion.


What can it be? Did half the city blow up?

Did aliens come from the sky?

IS IT MORE DARK MAKERS!

You'll just have to wait and see!
