It was as if a herd of brutters had run over her. Her every little movement sent excruciating pain through her entire body, it took hours for Keira to sit up completely and have some idea of where she was after being thrown. She had no idea of anything around her and the only thing that crossed her mind was if her father and friends were okay too, the concern for her loved ones was trigger enough for Hagai to push her body to stand up, however the second he took a single step his body collapsed again from not supporting its own weight.
Keira breathed with difficulty as she tried to compose herself, she raised her head to see if anyone would pass by to help her, unfortunately Hagai was in an empty alley in the city, she didn't know if she was happy for not having people's attention since she practically fell from the sky or if she was sad that she didn't have a single help. He threw his head back on the floor trying to calm his nerves and muscles in search of any strength to get up, but in the end he ended up surrendering to fatigue.
Keira frowned and opened her eyes little by little, different from the first time her body didn't hurt so much, she was still tired, but she didn't have so much trouble standing up, leaning against the cold metal wall, she walked calmly towards the exit. from the alley, checking the movement of people, looked at the dark sky with almost no stars and asked himself how much time had passed since he had slept. He checked the state of his clothes, seeing them dirty and a little torn in the knee area, in addition to light scratches on his back and arms, he thanked the forerunners for not having broken any important limb.
Gathering the rest of her courage, she entered the sandy track walking slowly without knowing what time it was, or where she was and how she would survive there, she didn't carry any money with her and there wasn't anywhere she could take a good shower and sleep in a warm bed. Keira shrugged her shoulders every time a citizen focused on her deplorable state and hoped to God none of them called the authorities, something deep in her being told her this was not a good thing. He looked up again to see a huge metal runway with a transparent bottom and some zoomers going by.
—Incredible… —she whispered in awe of the technology, certainly she was ahead of her time where technology was simple and limited. Gradually she saw the end of that sandy street as well as the end of the lane above her, a small ramp was on the side of the street, certainly to take her to a new area of the city, however as soon as she approached the small bars she was prevented from continuing by a huge barrier, Keira knocked for a few minutes, but to no avail, the barrierobstructed the passage, sighed in defeat knowing thatwould not leave away and turned around in the hope of finding another way.
Her throat burned in an attempt to hold back the tears, she was alone, hungry and hurt in a place unknown to her. There would be no one to help her or a roof to shelter and rest, panic flooded Keira's mind who was on the verge of collapsing there in the middle of the street.
She returned to the alley and slid down the wall as she let out the tears, covered her face with her hands and wept like a child that has lost its parents. Her chest tightened with anxiety over the situation, her mind no longer thought of anything but how lost she was and how she would die there without knowing the whereabouts of Jak, Daxter and her father.
– Jak, help. Help —she whispered tearfully for her friend. Even at Sandover when something happened to her, she wasn't afraid as she knew that Jak and even Daxter would be there to help and save her, but now it was just her and Keira had never felt more imposing than she did now. She tried to control her uneven breathing because of the crying, even with no way out she couldn't give up now, she was Samos's daughter and would get out of there somehow. She needed to believe.
