Sorry I'm to lazy to write out what the death threats were.
Chapter 6- Death Threats and Storys.
It had taken the group more than three hours to decide on what was going to happen. No one could find a babysitter, and their time was running short. In the end they just decided to take the kids with them, it was only going to be two or three days right? Jak made sure to pack extra clothes incase Jaklin was still sick, he didn't know what it was but whatever was making his baby sick would come and go.
They had made it to the hotel and was surprised to see that the place they would be staying at for the next few days had one large room that had their separate rooms branching off of it, All in all it was a nice place. the rest of the day went by mostly with out any events though Jaklin did think it was funny to waist all the toilet paper flushing it down the toilet. They all thought that this time nothing was going to happen that was until the next day.
Keira was sitting on the floor changing Kendra when someone came to their door. It was one of the bellhops from the hotel and said that they had received some mail and he handed her an envelope. She put it on the table and chased Kendra around so that she could put a diaper on her. Ashlin and Torn both walked into the room with Teagan and sat him down so he could play with the twins.
"What's this?" asked torn as he pointed to the large envelope
"One of the bellhops dropped it off saying that it was mail that came for us," Keira replied.
"Mail?" asked Tess as she and Daxter came in with Dez.
"Hey Jak we got mail," Daxter yelled and Jak came out with Jaklin.
"From who?" he asked as he put Jakie on the floor.
"Don't know," came Ashlin.
Keira opened the envelope and noticed that there were smaller white envelopes each with their names on it. She passed them out and opened hers and read it. It wasn't good, and may faces turned from slightly relaxed to pissed in minuets. Jak clenched his fist crumpling the paper as he growled. Jaklin knew that something was wrong and crawled over to Jak to see what it was.
"We shouldn't have come" he said as he picked Jakie up. Every one agreed.
"We shouldn't leave the hotel unless its absolutely necessary no telling what will happen and we shouldn't go alone if we do have to leave," came Torn. More nods from every one. Most were quiet you could hear the kids making sounds as they played. You could also hear Jak growling. This wasn't good, why are they getting death threats? No each and every one of them is in danger, worse yet the kids are in danger now as well.
Every one wandered off into their rooms to discus what they were going to do. Jak being the only one who had no one to talk to took Jaklin into their room and sat her on the bed and looked at her. Fear was something that Jak rarely felt but now it was there poking fun at him as his mind turned over the worst things that could possibly happen. A few hours later Jaklin was asleep and Jak was running his hands threw her hair when Tess came to the door.
"Jak I can't find Daxter any were, I think he might have gone to the bar he was telling me about, I think it's called the Bloody Hook," Tess said worried that something might have happened to him. Jak bit his lip and swore under his breath. Leave it to Daxter to get himself into hot water. Tess told him that she would watch Jaklin wile he went to look for Daxter.
Jak left the hotel and hopped into the sandshark, the Bloody Hook bar was almost on the other side of town but he would have to get there fast. Once Jak was about half way there he noticed that he was being fallowed by some other drivers, this wasn't good. He drove around for a few minuets and finally lost them. He kept his guard up though there was no telling if he had really lost them or not he stopped for a moment to get a better look at were he was.
"So there we were, wheel to wheel with the nastiest racing cars I've ever seen. Razor sharp chrome gleaming in the dark, weapons bristling under rumbling hoods…" Daxter said to the two men that were on either side of them. One of the guys looked like he had been on the bad side of things missing the majority of his ears; he had introduced himself as Shiv and his friend Edje.
"Oh… the Kras City welcoming committee." he said with sarcasm as he picked up a small cup and filled it with something out of a red bottle with skull and cross bones on it he handed it to Daxter.
"Have a drink, friend." Shiv said. Daxter takes the cup unaware of what's in it.
"Yeah, well whoever they were, they messed with the wrong racers! Jak and I are world famous!" Daxter exclaimed getting into his story a little too much and flung the contents of his cup behind him. Shiv shook his head at Edje.
"And we're connected too. We've been…" Daxter paused as he watched Edje fill his cup back up with the same liquid.
"Thanks… invited to Kras City for the reading of some will… a rich guy named Krew." Dax explained.
"The big gang lord?" Edje asked in mock surprise.
"Yeah BIG is right! We were Krew's muscle in Haven City, but old tub of butter kicked the bucket. Anyway, were was I? Oh yeah!"
From all directions a car pulled into view and Jak hopped back down into the sandshark.
"Slowly the racers circled us. The smell of fear hung in the air, and the smell of something else too! I told Jak, "Lose the suckers!" Daxter was really getting into his story now. Jak on the other hand, had to use his turbo to get threw some of the guys that blocked his path and drives up a ramp and jumps across to the other side.
Jak with the other racers in hot pursuit of him drive into a tunnel, one of the driver runs into the wall but keeps going. Feeling that these jerks are getting to close Jak drops a mine for the people behind him hoping that it will at least take out a few of the drivers. It blows up taking one of the drivers with it. Jak drifts around a sharp turn. Mean wile Daxter was getting into his story with his goggles down.
A man with a red jacket approaches the bar from the back of the room he was tired of hearing this rodent talk and he was making it difficult for the other two idiots to kill him.
"My, my, sounds like this city's terribly dangerous. Maybe we should get law enforcement to crack down." he laughs at his own sarcastic joke wile puffing on his cigarette. Daxter becomes uneasy by being surrounded by three guys and no were to run.
"Yeah, well this place don't scare us. No nasty gang is gonna get use to turn tail and run." Dax says boldly. The man flicks some of his ashes onto the bar floor.
"Sounds like they had you dead to rights. How did you survive?" he mused at Daxter.
Jak was a little pissed off at Daxter now, this was the dumbest thing he has ever done. He hoped like hell that Tess was gonna roast his ass when they got back to the hotel. Jak drifted his car a little so that one of the other guys crashed into the wall. With that momentum he uses it to cut in front of another driver making it so that he couldn't see for a moment. The driver so intent on fallowing Jak didn't see that he was headed right for the barrier, he crashed right threw it and took a swim with the fish.
As Jak turned the corner some one opened fire on him, shooting the car. Quickly Jak made a sharp turn and punched the turbo; the driver that shot him was right on his tail. Jak looked behind him momentarily to see the other guy but when he turned around there was another guy in front of him. Jak twitched his nose and fired a missile at him blowing his car high into the air and sped under it wile the guy behind him tried to stop. The flaming car landed on top of the other.
Jak stopped for a moment only to have another car come out of no were. Jak hit the reverse and turned the car around.
"Jak was barely able to handle himself, but with my help we took 'em all out until only one was left." Daxter said with triumph.
"Really? You know, people in this town have a way of getting in over their heads… like at the bottom of the ocean." came the red coated man.
"Ehh… easy boys, my story's almost over." Daxter said with alarm wishing that he had done what torn had said to do and not leave the hotel. It became clear to Daxter that he just got himself into some hot water when the guy in the red coat pulled out a butterfly knife.
"Yes, it is!" he said getting ready to skin Daxter alive he threw his cigarette behind the bar.
"Wait a minute it gets better. Really!" Daxter said trying to buy himself some time. Luckily for him Jak drives right threw the aquarium window behind him sliding to a stop. Jak looks at Dax angrily as he stood up; Daxter has a look of bewilderment and slight irritation on his face.
"Dax, get in the car!" Jak yells at him
"Jak! Are you crazy? You ruined my story!" Daxter says as he slams his cup on the ground. The man in the red coat stands up with his knife at the ready.
"NOW!" Jak demands and the man in the red coat throws the knife and it lands next to Daxter's head. He yells when he sees it.
"AAH! What are you waiting for? Step on it, Jak!" Daxter yells in fear. Jak quickly turns the car around and drives back threw the window running a fish over as he exits. Daxter can feel Jak's anger as they drive back to the hotel.
"I told you not to go out. We're getting death threats, Dax. Someone doesn't want us here." Jak snapped at him.
"Ya think?!" Daxter snaps back.
"I can't believe that you would put not only yourself at risk but also Tess and Dez as well." Jak said making his point clear to him. Daxter lowered his head.
"I say we take the next boat home." Daxter piped up.
"Not a chance! Hang on!" Jak said as he punches the turbo to get back to the hotel faster.
"JAAAKK!!" Daxter yells as he hangs on for dear life.
The rest of the night was uneventful, unless you count Daxter getting his ass chewed out by Tess. Jak had gone straight back to his room to see that Jakie was awake. She looked at him then held her arms up so that he would pick her up Jak picked her up after he took his jacket and boots off. Jak rested his head on top of Jakie's; it didn't take her long to fall asleep again.
Jak sighed it felt like she was getting a fever again, he prayed that this whole teething business would be over with soon. His fever theory was true when Jakie woke back up and started to whine. Jak walked around his room holding her, he was tired but he knew that there would be little sleep for him to night. He just hoped that they would get to go home soon.
For a minuet Jak but Jakie down so that he could change into his pajamas. He knew that if he was somewhat comfortable then it would help Jakie. Jaklin not having anything to grab, since Jak had taken his shirt off, she wrapped her little fingers around the leather strap that held the seal of Mar. It was the only thing that he never took off. One day he knew that he would take if off and give it to her.
Jak laid down and made himself comfortable then laid Jaklin on his chest. Ashlin had told him that is what she and Torn used to do when they couldn't get Teagan to go to sleep. It was the heart beat that calmed them down. Jak started humming a random song that he didn't know and rubbed Jakie's back. He hoped that tomarrow, after the will reading that they would all get to go home without any problems. Though something inside him said that it was unlikely that would happen.
