CHAPTER 4

Jak dropped Keira off at the bike fair, and went back to the city, it had been two days since he'd last seen her, Torn had been constantly on at him, sending him on missions one after the other, he'd bearly had enough time to sleep. He missed Keira terribly and his heart ached for her, he was riding towards the palace on his zoomer to report back in after the worst mission at the Strip Mine, he couldn't think of anything other than Keira as he rode past the the end of the palace the garage was situatied, suddenly he grinned, slowed down the zoomer and jumped off, sending the zoomer into the nearest wall. Jak watched as it crashed lightly into the wall, not bad enough it couldn't be fixed but he would certainly have to take it in to be repaired. He smiled and stood up shaking his head, his shirt and trousers ripped, he looked around "Shoulda really thought that through, woulda been softer on the grass" he chuckled, he pulled out his communicator and punched in Torns number, Torns face popped up "Jak, where the hell are you?" he yelled

"I was just on my way, but the zoomers just gone hay wire, I'm right next to the garage I'll drop it in" he said

Torn frowned "No, I'll get a trainee to pick it up, just get back here, your needed for another mission"

"Torn, I'm right next to the garage, it'll only take a minute, and I'll have to pick another one up anyway if your gonna continue to bust my ass, you know I haven't slept since I got back from Spargus" he snapped and slammed the unit shut

Jak smiled to himself and started pushing the zoomer towards the garage.

Keira ripped the sheet of paper off the job printer as it was processed through the front office and frowned "Which dumb ass crashed one this time, Jinx would be my guess?" she said, Lee laughed and went back to work.

"Try again" he said walking in

Keira looked up and smiled, she had to stop herself running over to him, and jumping into his arms "What happened?" she asked pressing the transporter button and waiting while the zoomer was brought up.

Jak shrugged "Crashed in to a wall, wasn't going very fast but still" he said smirking

Keira frowned and looked at the zoomer "Shouldn't take long, I suppose you'll want a replacement?" Jak nodded "Come into my office I'll sort the paperwork"

Jak frowned "What paperwork?" he asked keeping up the pretence

Keira winked at him "Everyone of my zoomers needs to be accounted for" she snapped and walked into the office, she pulled a string and the blinds dropped down, Jak walked in behind her and closed the door, reaching behind him and quietly locking it.

Keira jumped at him, he pushed her into the wall, his lips moving smoothly over hers, she wrapped her arms around him and pulled him in, Jak pulled away panting "I...missed...you" he breathed

Keira smiled and pulled his lips back to hers, wanting to make every second last, his hands roamed her body, she wanted him so badly, suddenly they heard a voice.

"Commander Torn, can I help?" Lee asked

"I need to see the boss" Torn said opening the office door, he looked around, Jak stood over Keira as she sat at her desk, "Whats going on?" he demanded

Keira and Jak looked up "Jaks just signing the paperwork for his replacement zoomer, his old one should be ready in a couple of days"

"Whats wrong with it?" Torn asked eyeing them

Jak sighed a sheet of paper and stood up allowing Keira to get up "I reckon the power cord and the breaks, that would explain why it slowed down but didn't stop" she explained

Torn nodded and turned to Jak "We need you down in the sewers, metal head stingers have been spotted" he said

"Damn it Torn, I've been on duty for two days, I need some sleep" Jak hissed "Can't someone else go, what about Jinx or Errol?" he asked

Torn shook his head "Just get the hell down there" he yelled

"Fine but if I screw up because I'm over worked then you'll be the one to blame, and don't forget I have my session with Samos tomorrow, he won't like it if I'm too knackered to train" Jak said

Torn sighed "Ok, ok, just go see to the sewers and then your off duty until the day after tomorrow"

"Good," he turned to Keira "Thanks for the zoomer, fancy a drink down the Ottsel tonight?"

Keira shrugged "Yea why not, I have to go see Tess anyway, she said she wanted me to fix something"

Jak nodded at Torn and left.

Torn glarred at Keira "What?" she snapped

"Your going out with him?" he said

She shrugged "I'm going to help Tess with something, I can have a drink while I'm there, and I can have a drink with a friend if their there" she said pushing past him

"Is that all, just a drink?" he asked following her out

Keira turned to him "Just a drink, if I didn't know better, I'd think you where jealous" she stepped closer to him "Get this into you head, you cannot tell me who I can and cannot have a drink with, you are not my father, your not my boyfriend, in fact you are not even my friend, so just back off and leave me the hell alone" she spat stamping off


Keira walked into the Naughty Ottsel that night, her cropped black jeans hugged her curves, her tight strapless white top, showed off her cleavage and her toned stomach, her hair pulled back into a high pony tail, her black pumps, making everything look casual, like she'd just thrown it on, little did the eyes watching her know she'd took extra time getting ready but only for one man. She bounched to the bar and sat down, Tess jumped up, she nodded behind her, Keira glanced up into the mirror behind the bar, she saw Torn sat at one of the booths "What is he doing here?" she whispered

Tess shrugged and then said loudly "I'll show you what needs fixing upstairs" she said motioning for Keira to follow her through a door behind the bar.

"You look amazing, Jak's a lucky guy, he's waiting upstairs for you" Tess grinned

Keira smiled "Thanks Tess" she said moving past her

"Hey I'm just glad your finally over that jackass, and Jak is so hot, if I didn't have Daxter you'd have some competion" she giggled as did Keira as she ran up stairs "And keep it down" Tess yelled after her.

Tess walked back into the bar, Torn was stood waiting for her "Why does Keira have to be quiet?" he asked

"Listen in to other peoples conversations much?" she asked narrowing her eyes

Torn lowered his eyes "I heard you yell" he said

"She's fixing a leak for me, I don't want her banging away up there disturbing all my customers" she grinned, handing Torn a bottle, she smirked as he walked away "Well someone will be banging away up there" she giggled.


Keira walked into the last room down a hallway, she saw Jak stood waiting for her, she closed and locked the door then skipped up to him and flung her arms around his neck "I've missed you, I love you" she purred bringing his mouth down to hers, she kissed him greadily.

Jak pulled away and smiled "I love you...have you seen who's down there?" he asked leading her to the bed, Keira nodded "I think he's spying on you" he said

Keira stroked his face "How do you know he's not spying on you?" she asked

"I've been spied on, I know when I'm being followed...does he know who your father is?" he asked

She smiled "I guess so, why?" she asked

"I thought you could come see me tomorrow while I'm with him" he smiled

Keira leaned up and kissed him "Well actually, I do generally go see my father once a week, tomorrow could be the day" she pushed him back onto the bed "But in the meantime" she purred straddling his waist

"You look amazing tonight, baby...I love you so much" Jak hissed pulling her lips down to his.


Jak and Keira lay naked in bed, the covers had long since been thrown on the floor, so they had nothing covering them, they didn't need it they felt so comfortable with each other. Keira smiled up at Jak "Tell me a secret" she giggled

"Risky" he smiled looking down into her eyes "Lets see, ok, from the moment you walked into me outside the throne room I wanted you, that night when I saw you leave the palace, I needed to see you again and before I knew what I was doing I was following you here"

Keira giggled "You followed me?" she asked, Jak nodded smiling "I'm glad you did" she smiled laying her head back down on his chest

"You don't think its creepy, that I followed you?" he asked

Keira shrugged "I guess if it was anyone else I woulda done, but not you, if you hadn't tracked me down I'm pretty sure I would have tracked you down" she smiled

Jak laughed and kissed her head "God, I love you" he said

"I love you too...I better get back down there...what are you gonna do?" she asked

He winked at her "I'll go out the back and come in the front, Torn knows where supposed to be meeting, it'll look weird if I don't turn up"

She got up and walked to the bathroom "You coming, you know I don't like to shower alone?" she pouted

Jak laughed and chased her in.


Keira strolled back into the bar through the door behind the bar and sat on a stool at the bar, Tess jumped up and handed her a beer "All fixed?" she asked

Keira took a long gulp "All fixed, completely and utterly healed, thank god" she beamed

Tess looked towards the door as it swung open, Keira didn't turn around, she could smell him, his wonderful scent, she breathed it in as he sat next to her, as Tess handed him a beer "How's it going dark boy?" she asked

"Never been better Tess, where's Dax?" he asked

Tess shrugged "Dunno, he's always up to some sort of deal these days" she jumped back down

Keira turned to Jak and whispered "Tess knows about the dark eco?" she asked

He nodded "I'll tell you later" he smiled taking a swig of his beer

They both turned around as they heard Ashelin slam through the door, she marched straight over to them "You two seem to be spending alot of time together?" she snapped

"Just bumped into each other, this is the only bar in town" Jak said

Ashelin frowned "Well make sure it doesn't lead to anymore, you know the rules" she grabbed a bottle of beer Tess had put on the bar and marched over to Torn.

Keira smiled "Bumped into each other eh?"

"Well we did, about a week ago...how am I gonna walk you home, we can't leave together?" he frowned

Keira smirked "Leave it to me, just follow my lead" she drained the last of her beer and slammed it down on the bar shoving her stool back and standing up "I cannot sit here and watch that" she announced loudly, pointing in Torn and Ashelins direction, and stamped out

Jak chuckled and stood up, he went over to the booth "You really are a scum bag Torn, its one thing to break a girls heart, but to rub her face in it, is just cruel" he turned to leave

"Why are you following her?" Torn demanded

Jak growlled "Because she's in a right state, she shouldn't be driving like that" he stamped out after her.


Jak sat on Keira's couch, one of his legs strecthed out along the back of it while his other dropped down the the floor, his back against the chair arm, Keira sat inbetween his legs, her legs wrapped around him their groins touching, they both had a mug of hot chocolate, Keira took a sip and looked up into his eyes "So how does Tess know about the dark eco?" she asked

"Its kinda my fault she and Daxter are Ottsels" he shrugged

Keira laughed "What, how?"

Jak reached across and placed his mug on the coffee table, he took a deep breath "Dax, Tess and I were all trainees in the guard together, we were sent to Dead Town on a training mission, as soon as we got there I knew something was wrong, Dark was pushing his way out, and I was too busy concentrating on trying to control him when I tripped on something, and flew into Daxter, thats when I realised why dark was so active, Dax fell into a huge pool of dark eco, I thought he was dead for a minute" he shook his head sadly

"So it turned Daxter in to an Ottsel, what about Tess?" she asked

Jak laughed "Well, Daxter being the great brave warrior that he is" he said sarcastically "Grabbed hold of Tess to stop himself falling in only, he pulled her in with him, I really thought I'd killed them, but then they jumped out, and hey presto there Ottsel's, I had to tell them why I'd been so distracted, make them understand, I don't think Tess has completely forgiven me yet" he said

"Wow, can nothing change them back?" she asked

Jak chuckled "Well I asked your father and appartenly only light eco and the Precursors can help, but when I went to see the Precursors and I did a few missions for them, they offered to grant Dax and Tess their deepest desire, Tess was just about to ask to be changed when Daxter piped up and asked for a pair of pants, she was incredibly pissed off about that"

Keira threw her head back and laughed "Good old Daxter"

Jak laughed and took Keira's mug off her, placing it next to he's, he placed his hands on her hips and pulled her closer to him "Its not funny, I felt incredibly guilty about it, I still do, everytime I see Tess trying to reach something, or becoming frustrated about not being a woman anymore"

"You shouldn't feel guilty, you tried to help them, it was Daxter who opened his mouth at the wrong time" she smiled leaning her forehead against his

Jak smiled "I love you" he grinned

"I love you too...Jak, has Ashelin ever tried it on with you?" she asked quietly

Jak pulled his head back and looked into her eyes "Keira, don't ever think I would ever do what Torn did to you...but yes Ashelin did have a bit of a thing for me when I first joined the KG, she always made sure she was around me, on my missions, flirting with me, but I wasn't interrested, still not" he smiled

"You mean she's still after you?" she frowned

Jak shrugged "No idea, I only ever interact with her when I have to, otherwise I keep out her way..." he cupped her face "Hey, you have nothing to worry about, I have never or will never have feelings for Ashelin, your the only one I want to be with, ok baby?" he smiled and kissed her softly

She nodded "I'm sorry Jak, but when someone does something like that to you, its hard to trust people again, do you understand?" she asked

"Of course its hard, but know that I will never hurt you, I would rather die than see pain in your eyes" he said seriously

Keira pushed herself on to his lap "How long do we have before you have to go?" she asked

"I'm sure we've got enough time, but I hate leaving you" he frowned

She kissed him hungrily "Forget about that for now, just make love to me, show me you love me" she purred

Jak grinned and got to work on her body.


Keira closed the door behind Jak, he listened for the door to lock and then went down the stairs. He walked into the room he shared with ten other Krimzon Guards and sighed, he looked around the usuall suspects, Errol wandered up to him "Heard you crashed a zoomer today?" he sneered

"So whats it to you?" he snapped walking over to his bunk and flopping down on it

Errol followed him "Thought you was better than that Jak?"

Jak smirked "What makes you think it was an accident, maybe I just wanted to see the hot mechanic?" he said

"Keira, yea she's hot, pity I can't have a shot with her, Ashelins stupid rule, you know she only brought that rule in so Keira couldn't get Torn back...you've been spending alot of time with her lately, you two been sneaking around?" he joked

"Yea, Keira and I have been sneaking around, having quickies up against the bathroom wall in the Ottsel, a sneaky kiss behind the bike sheds" he sighed "Were not teenagers, Errol, were just friends, besides what could Ashelin actually do if two people in the palace did start a relationship, I bet theres loads of couples sneaking around this place" he chuckled

Errol shrugged "I don't know what she'd do...banish you to the wasteland, I guess, its not exactly a crime punishable by death is it, you can't help falling in love can you, even she must understand that, after what she did with Torn when she fell in love"

"Do you think she actually fell for Torn, or do you think it was all just a game to her, I mean, she's tried it on with all of us at one time or another?" Jak asked

Errol laughed "Yea, we've all been there done that...I reckon she only wanted him because she couldn't have him, and now its too late"

"I haven't done her...What about Torn, giving up a girl like Keira for Ashelin?" he asked

Errol shrugged again "Ashelin had all the power, and power can be a big turn on, but I don't think he thought it through, when I was racing for Keira last year, I mentioned how hot she is and how I wish I could have a crack at her and he nearly ripped my head off, I was on sewer patrol for two weeks"

"You think he still loves her, he wants her back?" Jak sat up

Errol shook his head "Even if he did, Keira wouldn't take him back, not after what he did to her, she doesn't do dishonesty, its very important to her, why all the questions?" he asked

Jak shrugged "I just don't understand how I didn't know about all this, how she managed to pass me by all these years, I mean I know we can only be friends, but I do care about her and I hate that Torn did that to her" he said sadly

"Like I said I don't think he thought it through, I've seen him skulking around that garage, he still wants her, but she's happy now, I've seen it in her, last year she was forever yelling and stamping around, all bad ass attitude and stromy eyes, you knew not to cross her but this last week, she's changed like she used to be when she first came here, all sparkly eyes and wide smile, she was sexy when she was bad tempered but shes too damn hot now, I don't know what it is, but she's got her spark back" Errol said

Jak grinned to himself and led back down "Maybe she's just realised Torn isn't worth the time or effort"

"Hope so, he was never good enough for her" Errol said going to his own bunk.


JAK : Why am I having a conversation with Errol?

HELEN : Because its my story and in this one he didn't do horrible things to you

JAK : But still, it seems weird that I don't want to rip his head off and shit down his throat

HELEN : Save all your energy for beating the crap outta Torn

JAK : Really I can do that ? (Jak smiles excitedly)

HELEN :We'll see, and only if your good

JAK : I'll be good
