UPDATE! YAYYYYYY (:

Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN JAK AND DAXTER THE GAME/SERIES AND/OR IT'S CHARACTERS. ONLY MY OWN PLOT AND CHARACTERS ARE MINE.

Enjoy! (:


During the entire mission with Jak and Dax, Adriel wouldn't shut up. It was to the point where even I was concerned. Jak would bitch- then Adriel would bitch..then they'd bitch to me about each other. It was so frustrating. The instant the mission got over the two were literally at each other's throats. Jak shoved Adriel- interrogating him about me causing Adriel to get on defense and wonder why it was any of his business…Which led us to the little scurfuffle that was happening in the middle of the road.

I jumped before glaring as Jak punched Adriel in the face- the male not even stumbling before he tackled Jak to the ground and they started an all-out brawl.

"Hey! Knock it off you two!" Daxter hid behind my legs, scared, while I glared- shouting at both of them, "Stop it! What the fuck are you doing!?"

Either they didn't hear me or just ignored me because they continued, but if I didn't stop them something bad was going to happen. Already, I could feel the built up frustration that reeked from Adriel that was a darker side to him- all the while Jak's Dark Eco side was sparking violently. I ran over- yanking at Adriel to pull him off of Jak as the male continued to punch. "Adriel, stop! Stop you're going to hurt him!"

He didn't stop though. It was like he didn't even hear me- his teal eyes bleeding almost black as he glared down at him and continued shouting, "She isn't your property! You don't know how much pain she's in!"

Panic ran through my veins as I recognized this feeling of dread and anger coming from him, quickly pulling at his arms, "Adriel, please!" At this, something snapped in him, his teal coming back while he blinked before Jak nailed him right in the nose, the male flying back and hitting me hard. My head spun as I hit the floor with Adriel beside me and I shut my eyes tightly before looking over at Jak as Daxter landed beside him.

"You okay, buddy?" Jak simply nodded off Daxter's concern while Adriel grabbed his own bleeding nose.

"You don't deserve the princess," he snapped.

Jak glared back at him instantly, "Oh and you're proving you do!? You're a traitor!"

"I deserve her a lot more than you!" I looked over at the man beside me before my green looked over at Jak who finally glanced at me. My eyes pained at this- shutting before looking away from him and helping Adriel stand slowly.

"We're going home," I mumbled gently. As my protector stood beside me, Jak said my name gently causing me to look at him with a sigh, "Don't, Jak. Just…check in with Damas….go home."

I didn't even look at him, grabbing Adriel as we began walking and going down the streets to get to my home. It was quiet- and I could already feel the regret rolling off of Adriel behind me. He didn't even want to look at me let alone speak to me. For a split second, it was amusing but it didn't last long. There was a lot going through my mind but for the most part I was just upset at them both. Fighting in the middle of Spargus. How low could you get? Well not low...but angry.

I flashed back to the darkness seeping off of Adriel again. It worried me, but not enough to bring it up to him. I wondered if he even knew in the first place.

As we approached the house, I spoke.

"I'm not mad at you," I said softly.

Adriel snorted an empty laugh, "You're not happy with me either."

I let my eyes trail to him as I opened the door and let him in first.

"Of course not, it's not like you were the better person there," I snapped instantly. Adriel nodded without looking at me as he walked in and sat on the couch. Removing my belt and jacket I tsked walking to the bathroom before returning with a make-shift first aid kit.

For the most part he wasn't too beat up. Bruised eye, busted nose, busted lip. I shook my head as I sat before him on the coffee table and began to clean him up.

"You're nose isn't broken or even fractured. Jak went easy on you," I mumbled softly. Adriel nodded not looking at me as he grumbled to himself about how much of a cowered he was and how he didn't exactly go easy on him either.

Hearing this made a smile slip on my face and I shook my head quietly. Adriel caught it though- blinking before frowning at me, "What?"

"You both are like a couple of kids. You're pouting right now," I laughed softly. His frown only deepened causing me to laugh a bit more as I wiped his face from the blood, "Stop." Shaking my head I sighed softly- making sure his nose had stopped bleeding as I spoke once more, "Adriel, you know that I'm not worth the fight…why do you do this to yourself?"

He rose a brow causing me to shake my head and looked away from him, "I don't see your point of view."

"Yeah well you don't see how much I love you either," he said matter-of-factly. Setting down the soaked gauss I nodded.

"You're right- but that doesn't mean you need to fight Jak to prove to me you're worth it. I already know how I feel and I know how you both feel. You think it makes it easier to deal with all of this when you guys are fighting in the middle of the street trying to kill each other!?"

He said nothing this time- instead looking away and I nodded with a huff, "Exactly."

Silence filled the note I left it on as I continued to patch him up and clean his injuries before I was finished. I stood- motioning to him as I walked towards the kitchen, "Go clean the rest of yourself up."

"Kida, please.." At his voice I sighed and stopped- looking at him as he stood behind me looking down. "I'm sorry…he just..knows how to get to me and I know how to get to him. It won't happen again.."

Staring up at him I saw how genuine his apology was though I wasn't the one that deserved it. I didn't deserve him in the first place but that was a different story. Unfolding my arms I sighed and rolled my eyes.

"Fine- okay it's over. Forget it." Shaking my head as he broke into a beautiful smile I motioned hiding my panic for how perfect he was, "Now go bathe."

Suddenly, his hands were fisted in my hair- kissing me deeper than ever as relief washed over him. I was caught so off guard all, I could do was blink repeatedly. The world around went black, sucking us in and I responded quickly with my arms around his shoulders and he pulled me up with arms around my waist. I felt my pulse quicken as the world faded just as before and we were in our own sanctuary.

However, something was off- my eyes flying open as I was blinded by something. All the sudden I could only see fields. Long fields of what looked like grass and forest- tall buildings as I stood on a balcony, people screaming and cheering happily from below before it was gone.

Me and Adriel separated instantly- the male stumbling while blinking repeatedly while my world came back to me.

"The hell?" I heard my protectors words meaning he saw something too but I couldn't focus on it as my mind was spinning rapidly. I reached up to hold my head while gripping onto the doorway to the kitchen for dear life. What the hell was that? A vision?

"Kida?" My face was lifted and I saw Adriel clearly and he was concerned. Softly I nodded, stepping in on instinct to his embrace. My arms bound around him as he held me to him and I set my ear on his chest. His heart was beating fast. It must have really caught him off guard.

"What did you see?" he asked. I shook my head confused as I tried to remember and spoke.

"I'm not sure…it was almost like a city? A ceremony. There were so many people. Cheering and clapping. Tall buildings that looked like they were built in the middle of the forest. It was beautiful," I whispered. I could feel him nod as I spoke, sighing softly while I looked up at him.

"What did you see?" He frowned and glanced to the side remembering. "The same thing. Except I saw you in front of me, waving down at the people that were cheering. I think the ceremony was for you."

I blinked at this surprised, "Me?" As he nodded he could tell I was confused and then he continued on, "You were small. A child. I think it was a memory from our past."

Shaking my head I stared at him confused as all hell, "What do you mean from our past? You mean from…before?"

At his nod I felt something swell in me that I couldn't pinpoint. Fear? Sadness? Curiosity? I pined to know what our home was like all of the sudden. Our past. Where we came from. I looked at him and he had a thin line to his lips. For a moment we didn't move before it dawned onto me.

"You know where that was." It came out instantly and he stepped back from me- letting me go and I stared at him shocked, "You know where we came from."

He didn't look at me and I stepped forwards, "You remember everything don't you!?"

"Kida, stop-"

"Tell me!"

Shaking his head Adriel sighed, "I don't want you to know what it was like before all of this."

I stared as if he were stupid, "I deserve to know-! When did you remember?!"

He was silent and I gave him a defiant glare that I knew as his princess….he could not ignore.

"I…I remembered everything after your star gave out..It all hit me. Everything. Where we came from- where it was located. How I got in your head- why. I just…don't have any memories. I just recalled some events. Locations. Names."

I suddenly wanted to know everything he knew. I wanted to dip into his mind like he did to me and know where I came from. Why I was sent here and what I was meant to do. I wanted to know who I was. I…wanted a home.

Tears swelled up in my eyes and I suddenly couldn't stop myself from crying again- shutting my green tightly and I balled my hands over my eyes, "How come..you know everything and I'm kept in the dark..?

"Ki.." Adriel reached out to me and I just let him- my hands wiping at my tears messily.

"It's not fair…We've gone through all of this..everything…and for what?"

"To protect our original home," he admitted sadly. But I couldn't hear it. Even in his tone he thought it was a load of shit. That's all we knew- all that we could remember and all he could really recall. We were sent away, forgotten and abandoned for the sake of the future to the Twin Suns?

"Valhalla."

I blinked slowly at this- opening my eyes and looking up at Adriel with a sniff, "What?"

He nodded slowly, teal trailing to the side as he spoke slower, "For the sake of…Valhalla's… future. It's why we were sent away. The kingdom of the First Twin Sun. It's where you were born."

I had no idea what came over me but I suddenly felt woozy. However he went on, speaking with a sigh, "I'm from Serendipity. Kingdom of the Second Twin Sun."

Staring up at him for a long time I shook my head confused, "How do you know this?"

"I told you…I remembered names and locations. Just not actual memories..I think what happened just now..was a memory of Valhalla."

"Do you know how to get there?" This struck Adriel with some surprise as he blinked down at me though I was serious. "What? No- of course not. Why would you want to go there?"

"Anywhere is better than here!"

"Kida, Valhalla is just a myth now- a legend. There's no way it could still exist. The other sun burnt out remember? It was probably a lost city way before then," he said shaking his head.

I frowned deeply though I was defiant. "You never know. You said we were sent here for the sake of Valhalla and Serendipity right?"

"Well i-"

"Well what if you're right- but not thinking about it correctly." I pulled away from him and paced some. It made sense suddenly- but we weren't thinking about it before correctly. After Adriel was released- after we found out we were the only two existing sources to the Twin Suns we assumed that meant we were the only two left. That we were sent away to eventually rebuild the blood of the Twin Suns- whatever that could be.

"Your brain is overthinking all of this," Adriel said rolling his eyes. I turned to him and shook my head quickly.

"Or it's thinking about something we completely ignored before. What if we were sent to get help." Adriel stared at me in skepticism but saw how serious I was and I nodded quickly, "What if there those cities still exist and they're waiting to be saved?"

Adriel was clearly surprised and doubtful but was thinking about it. It made sense but only to a crazy person. Staring down at me for a long time he then let out a long breath shifting with hands on his sides, "I can't believe you really want to figure out a way to get to Valhalla and Serendipity. You know this is going to take a lot of digging and hunting? It's like looking for lost treasure."

Shaking my head I didn't care- I felt a fulfillment running through me. This was the right thing to do- this is what I suddenly felt focused on. Like this is what we were meant to do after all of these years. Adriel smirked at me and folded his arms, "Let's start with Valhalla."

I smiled brightly, "Valhalla it is."


For those of you who do not know- Serendipity means the ability for making fortunate discoveries by accident. Like Adri. It was by accident and chance that Kida was able to have something so excellent, valuable, and useful in her life that makes her so happy. City of Serendipity may be filled with people as so its name? As for Valhalla- in Norse Mythology, chosen by Odin, half of those who die in combat travel to Valhalla upon death. There is a lot more to the lost era of Valhalla as it has always interested me a lot but I also simply like the name hence both names were used for the cities:

Valhalla & Serendipity

Probably wasn't even worth the wait I know I love you all so much- kisses and be kind to one another!
