Spargus City Throne Room (Current Events)
"So you were there when Erron turned traitor?"
Keira asked as she listened to Sigs story.
"Correct. Obviously over time Erron would form his Marauder Army and Damas knew how to handle them and he constanly humiliated Erron every time he attempted to attack the city. When I took over I did the same." Sig explained as he used his communicator to contact Torn.
"Sorry Sig, no signal yet. I must say your men are very paitient." Torn said while keeping his eye on the marauder fortress.
The King of Spargus chuckled in response and replied
"They're well trained, but don't fret commander Torn. Jak will pull through and I have one hundred percent faith in him!"
The KG commander nodded knowing Sig was right.
"We'll continue to watch till the signal is given."
He said and he shutted his communicator off and resumed his observation while Ashlein made sure she and her KG units were ready to move should the need arise.
Samos suddenly opened his eyes in fright. His meditation ended as he landed to his feet and shuffled quickly to Keira and held her hand.
"It's Jak, I sensed the dark eco. He's losing control!" The green sage exclaimed as he trembled slightly.
His daughter shot up from her chair before she turned to Sig and said
"I'm going after him. He'll need me. Daxter I need you too on this!"
Daxter climbed onto her shoulder with a small grin on his face.
"Keira I forbid you from going!! I cannot let you get hurt you know how dark eco affects him!"
Samos snapped at his daughter but this hardly phased Keira at all.
"Dad, you know I can't just sit by anymore. Remember when you were mad at me for racing against Mizo and his gang? I proved to you I can handle myself."
Keira spoke calmly as she walked towards Samos before placing both her hands on his shoulders. Samos sighed in defeat knowing she was right.
"If that is the case my dear girl then please bring him home!" he said sternly while hugging his daughter tightly.
Soon Keira and Daxter made their way to the garage. Daxter climbed onto the newly modified Sandshark which was armed with a specialised turret for him use while Keira hopped in revving the engine.
"You ready Dax?" The young mechanic girl asked as the city gates opened for them.
The Ottsel loaded the turret and placed his goggles on.
"Let's go kick some ass and save him, just like old times eh?" he responded with a badass looking grin.
Keira nodded and soon they drove off into the desert to go rescue Jak.
"Hang on Honey. We're coming!" She said in her mind as she felt more than determined.
Marauder Fortress
Jak was being dragged outside of the dungeon by Erron to the courtyard of the fortress.
"I beleive it is time I put on a show for my men to see. To witness history in the making!" Erron yelled out in triumph as his army roared in their supposed victory.
He threw Jak into the centre of the courtyard while his prisoner struggled to get himself up only to be pinned down by Errons boot.
"Is this supposed to be a show? I guess you guys don't know what a TV is" Jak chuckled despite feeling the heavy pressure on his chest.
The marauder king soon grabbed Jak by the throat and with great tossed him into the wall.
"A weakling, just like your father. So much for being a descendant of the great Mar!!"
Erron roared as he picked Jak up again only this time he bombarded him with punches and kicks across the face and stomach. The Eco Channeler felt an intense pain so bad he couldn't scream. After Errons outburst he forced Jak on his knees, staring at the defeated hero in the eyes with nothing but pure rage seething through his body.
"Once I've dealt with you boy, Spargus will be next to feel my wrath, then soon the world will see I am what a true king should be! I can't beleive Lilith thought that you could stop me. She and Damas were fools in having a child so weak and pathetic!!"
Erron spoke in a loud yet dark tone while the crowd chanted his name. Jak felt his body crumble, his strength faded as he saw Erron raise his hand in victory.
"Giving up already Jak?" Dark spoke in Jaks mind as he awoken.
"Funny. so I guess it's time to unleash hell?"
Jak responded in his head and all he could hear was Dark's laugh and that was all he needed to hear. Slowly Jak brought himself up, he felt his senses return and he soon began to laugh. Erron turned away from the crowd as he heard Jak's dark laugh.
"Still standing are we boy? I'm afraid it's too late to be a hero." The marauder king said as he drew his blade out.
"You really are a loathsome bug aren't you Erron? Always thinking you know everything. I hate to bring you some bad news but I suppose I'll say it anyway. You are going to suffer greatly at my hands and I'm gonna enjoy every second of it!"
Jak raised his voice feeling himself ready to explode. Enraged by the threat Erron charged for Jak and he nearly drove his blade into the Eco Channelers chest only for it to be deflected by dark lightning. The blade shattered into pieces within only a few seconds and Erron soon felt a cold stare he hadn't felt for a long time.
"Do you recognise these eyes Erron?"
Jak asked as he broke his chains off. His eyes slowly turned pitch black as he walked towards the marauder king who stepped backwards in fear. He raised his hand summoning several guards to surround Jak and tried to keep himself composed before saying
"KILL HIM NOW!!"
The guards went straight for the Eco Channeler only for them to be thrown back by an explosion of dark eco which erupted from Jak's body.
Jak felt his entire body become engulfed in dark eco, his skin turning grey with purple glowing veins, hair turning purply grey with horns sprouting out of his head, his hands became sharp claws while his teeth grew sharper and demonic. Heavy rain began to fall with thunder and lightning following. Erron looked in horror at the now transformed Jak who gave him a terrifying smile.
"What is the matter Erron? You look like you've seen a ghost."
Dark Jak asked as he slowly approached Erron with his claws ready to attack, Erron soon responded in a almost frightened tone.
"So the mother and son share the same abilities. It doesn't matter anymore. I killed your mother while she was in that state and I can certainly kill you with ease boy!"
Dark Jak laughed at the remark as he lifted his hand and shot out dark eco into the air. Torn saw the dark eco from outside the fortress and soon yelled
"That's the signal. All units move out and attack!! Give em hell!!"
Within seconds both KG and Wastelander soldiers began to open fire on the fortress. Soon the marauders raised the alarm and within minutes a large scale battle began. Jinx and his unit soon fought their way to the large gate and with ease they managed to kill several enemy combatants.
"Alright plant the charges and get that damn gate open! We'll provide cover fire!!" Ashlein shouted to Jinx as she opened fire granting the unit some time.
Wastelander units arrived in their battle vehicles, but a small group of marauder tanks also appeared and opened fire on them.
"Son of a bitch, they're not playing around!" Torn shouted as he dived into cover next to Ashlein.
The baronness tossed a rocket launcher for Torn and said
"If you've got time to complain about it then do something about it!"
Torn quickly nodded and aimed the launcher at the oncoming marauder tank which aimed its cannon directly at the KG commander.
Erron roared in fraustration as he saw the fortress crumble from the gun fire and explosions, his men either ended up dead or they ran off in fear. He turned to see Dark Jak leap into the air who managed to catch him off guard by slashing his arm which in turn caused it to bleed uncontrollably. Another roar came from Erron as he soon retaliated by shooting at Jak who dodged the bullets with ease.
"I will not be humiliated by some punk! Who the hell do you think you are to oppose me!?"
The marauder king yelled as he threw his gun away and charged for Jak head on. Jinx successfully planted the charges and threw himself beside Ashlein while Torn had took down several tanks only to run out of rockets, he threw the launcher down in fraustration and slammed his fist on the ground.
"Damn it, we're out of ammo! Have we got anymore?" Torn asked as he looked to see another tank approaching.
"Sorry boss we're all out! but I've got the charges planted and we're ready to go!!" Jinx replied as he took a detenator out of his satchel.
Torn snarled in response noticing the tank aiming at them and said
"We'll be picked off before we could get through that gate! Damn these morons are tough!"
The tank stopped in its tracks. The cannon was about to fire when suddenly several rockets firing came out of nowhere bombarding the tank and soon enough exploded. Torn and Ashlein carefully moved to see a armoured car wipe out several soldiers and vehicles. The Sandshark stopped in front of them and they saw Daxter remove his goggles smiling at the unit while he sat on the turret before saying
"Sorry we're late guys! Traffic was murder."
Keira jumped out of the car and rushed to check on her friends.
"Now that was friggen badass you two!"
Ashlein said as she hugged Keira while Torn gave Daxter a high five.
"I couldn't stand by any longer. We have to save Jak!" Keira exclaimed as she quickly moved into cover.
"Way ahead of you girl!! Now step back and we'll be inside before you know it!"
Jinx shouted as he pushed the button and then BOOM.The fortress gate was torn apart with metal and wood flying everywhere.
"Let's go save our friend!" Ashlein said as they rushed into the fortress armed and ready for what comes next.
