Chapter 2: Skyheed's Demise

The four were fighting Skyheed who was using his undead Dark Eco soldiers to protect himself, but the army didn't last long and were defeated in about 2.3 minutes. The four were advancing on him until he brought out a gun and fired, but not at the major powerhouse, at Naruto and the shot sent him flying back about 3 feet with Skyler the first to try to wake him up. Suddenly another symbol appeared on Skyler, but on his right hand, and he changed once again and spoke words in a voice that sounded like many.

"The Fox has been killed, now the murderer's life is forfeit!" came Skyler's voice as his body was suddenly engulfed in Dark Eco colored flames and his claws grew sharper and serrated, he grew to be as tall as Skyheed, his back spikes released Stabilized Dark Eco streaks, his tails formed long cruel blades at the ends, a tattered cape appeared on his back and his eyes became pitch black with red in the middle, and his head changed between his usual face and that of a skull. Raising a finger at Skyheed he pointed at him and Skyheed knew what this was.

"Skyheed…Your… life… is… forfeit!" came a ghostly voice from Skyler as his face changed into the skull and back. Jak's eyes grew wide after seeing the symbol on Skyler's hand.

Jak's FLASHBACK

In the Forbidden Temple while Daxter was looking around, he found a symbol covered in dust and rubbed the dust off to reveal the symbol for Dark Eco with a skull inside of it and underneath the symbol were the words: "He who kills the Fox is forever marked to bring the Fox back by losing his own life so says the (Dark Eco) Death Knight."

END FLASHBACK

Daxter who hadn't seen the symbol was trying to wake Naruto up, but was grabbed by Jak and the look on Jak's face told Daxter that his second best pal was dead and started to cry and looked towards Skyler.

"GO RIP HIS F#%^&ING HEART OUT SKYLER!" yelled Daxter who couldn't stand up any more. Skyler was advancing on Skyheed, who was trying to stop him by throwing anything he could at him and it wasn't doing anything. Skyheed then picked up a long spiked rock and impaled Skyler to a wall who didn't even notice and then Skyheed found out something that terrified him, Skyler pointed one of his hands at Skyheed and began to drain Skyheed's life out from inside him and a visible trail of the his life's energy was seen forming around Skyler's hand and Skyheed began to turn to stone as his life left him and within 5 seconds Skyheed was stone and then shattered.

"His life for the Fox's…" was what Skyler spoke as he removed the spiked rock from his midsection and began to limb towards them with one hand out stretched, but soon fell on his knees but kept coming and finally reached the fox teen and then Skyheed's life energy then went into Naruto and Skyler returned to normal.

"Skyheed's life energy won't affect him, but I have…*cough!*…one thing to do before its my…turn…" and with those words shot lightning at Naruto which seemed to have no effect on the fox. The two then went over to the Skyler and saw that the usually bright blue blood was dulling as were his bright orange eyes, Jak had to break his gaze.

"HA! I…*gasp*…finally…win…*cough up blood*…" and then his eyes closed and his blood became a dull gray. Suddenly they heard a gasp and looked over to see Naruto holding his head, but he looked different, he seemed taller, muscles were more refined, his hair had red streaks, and instead of the usual one tail, he had 9, and the whisker markings seemed more like whiskers and the two top canines jutted out over his lower lip a bit. Then Naruto's eyes caught Skyler and rushed over to were his friend was and his eyes began to water, but then a round device fell from Skyler's left hand and activated.

"Guys, if you're hearing this then well I killed Skyheed and brought Naruto back, but lost my life in the process. Naruto, if you'll look in a mirror later, you'll see I left you a farewell present. Daxter look under your bed later. Jak, sorry but nothing for you except this: a syringe with Stabilized Dark Eco in it. Now it may hurt when you inject into yourself, but that's the Dark Eco inside of you being stabilized by the small amount of stable Dark Eco inside. By the way, I've died at least 10 times in my life, so this may not be a permanent goodbye, but until then farewell." and then the transmission was over.

TIME SKIP: 2 HOURS LATER

The funeral was a private one because the three told their allies that it may not be permanent and just wanted it to be as quiet as possible. Looking up Daxter saw both Sig and Blackout holding back watery eyes.

"Hey, I thought you two were tough guys not cry babies." teased Daxter.

"I'm not crying…something's in my eye." said Sig with his voice breaking.

"I'm not crying…besides robots don't cry and its eye-cleaner." said Blackout turning away.

"Riiiiight…" said Daxter while rolling his eyes.

TIME SKIP: 80 WEEKS LATER

Dax had found what Skyler had left him, a miniaturized Oblivionizer and was trying it out at the Gun Course, Jak had put the stable Dark Eco into him and found he was in complete control of Dark Jak. Naruto had found out that he had 9 tails instead of 1 after he had gotten up and was looking at himself in the mirror and saw red streaks in his blond hair, along with refined muscles, and whiskers, and that he was also taller and that his teeth had grown sharper, but the two upper canines had grown longer to were they jutted slightly out of his mouth, but nobody seemed to care. But then an alarm sounded and it was were they had put Skyler's body and rushed to the place.

POINT OF VEIW

I woke up in a glass encasement and my instincts kicked in, but I knew where I was but glass encasement meant my former master was going to experiment on me again to my instincts. Busting out I heard alarms go off and fear seized me, was I back in my universe?, but that was cut short when I failed to get air, dropping to my hands and knees I saw where Skyheed had impaled me and began choking as my lungs failed to give me air and my vision became blurred. Suddenly I heard footsteps and got ready to fight if I was able, but my sight was failing as I failed to get any air to my lungs still, suddenly I saw a figure, then I relaxed and collapsed.

END POINT OF VEIW
