"That was a big win for the newcomer, my fine feathered friend we're gonna have to pay more attention to this boy." Blitz said on the TV as me and Jak stopped to watch.

"I've done some digging, G. baby, and I've uncovered more information about the rumors of that big underworld bet. Someone is manipulating the sport!" Pecker said. 'Awe Pecker you cheeky dick waffle! Always getting into the mix in the best ways possible.

"You know... Ha ha ha... I've been covering this sport for decades. Do you honestly think you can come onto my (BEEP)ing show and make me look like a (BEEP)ing fool?! Well, (BEEP) you! (BEEEEEEEEEEP)." Blitz yelled before the screen cut to a cartoon version of himself with a wrench.

"Hahaha! Tv would be worth watching at home if the newscasters were this...energized." I said looking to Jak.

"Yeah, it's a real circus." He says shaking his head walking off.

"Relax baby, well win this race and survive the clowns running around with murderous intent."

"Yeah, then maybe the ring leader will come out so that we can have a nice 'talk' to him in private." Daxter stressed.

"Oh it'll come, we'll all be ready to get our 'two sense' in." I said making air quotations.

"That means kill him right?" Daxter asked making me slap my forehead. We walked into our living quarters and was instantly hit with the smell of food cooking.

"Daddy, were home." I called out.

"Jackies! Jak! Little orangy warrior! You beat butts on track?" Brutter asked.

"You bet your fur we did! Jak was the pathfinder, me and Jackie here was the path sweepers. What's for dinner?" Sig said coming in.

"Yakow steak, stuff mushrooms and leek soup! Good food to keep healths up tip top!" Brutter said poking his head back into the kitchen.

"Oh my, I think I died cause that sounds like heaven!" I said dreamily.

"I'm right there with ya." Dax agreed jumping off of Jak's shoulder to sit in the benches. Jak and I followed his lead and proceeded to sit down. I arched my back cracking it before kicking off my shoes. Not a second after my shoes clattered to the floor did Russell and Caine come into the sitting room.

"We looked over your vehicle Chief." Russell grunted out taking out what looked like a communicator but I knew different.

"Those races aren't no joke! Just one race and your bearings are cracked, the guns have been warped and you've killed the engine!" Vin said pulling up a visual of the car. Jak looked at me with raise eyebrows.

"What can I say?" I shrugged. "There aren't too many things that can handle me." I smirked placing a hand on Jak's knee suggestively.

"That's an understatement, you need to lay off using yourself as a energy source! Nothing short of precursor technology can handle you! I'm surprise it hasn't been completely destroyed yet!" Jean said more in awe then anything.

"Wastelanders good with ground moving." Russell said.

"You bet we are!" Sig piped in from the kitchen.

"Nooooo! You no eat filling for mushrooms untill after bakes!" I heard Brutter yell.

"That's not good for you! I've seen what he puts in them." Vin warned.

"Odds are that you'll have diharea and possibly a flu for a few days now." Jean said.

"Please tell me that's not going to be a symptom of Dark Shade." Ashelyn said walking into the sitting room with Torn.

"Black Shade? Who's the idiot messing around with that stuff?" Vin said floating over to Ashelyn.

"Krew, he poisoned them remember?" I said shaking my head.

"Oh! Of coarse, why else would you mention it. Excuse me." Vin said probably feeling a bit stupid for the first time in forever.

"I've never heard of such a poison, then again that's not in my field of study nor interests." Jean mused aloud.

"Yeah well, you think you guys could, I don't know, find an antidote for it?" Jak asked.

"Negative! Dark shade is very touchy, the only person who could give the antidote to you would be the person who made the poison or somebody who has spent a lot of time experimenting with it.

"Well that's fantastic." I muttered unhappily.

"DINNERS!" Brutter called out.

"Finally! Good news!" Daxter said padding to the kitchen.

"Come on guys, we can pick each other's brains later on a full tank." I said to them all patting Jaks leg as I got up. Brutter and Pluto were in the kitchen putting food on plates while Sig and now Dax sat at the table.

"Keria, it's chow time." Jak said taking out his communicator.

"Put mine in the fridge, I'm busy." She said back with the accompanied sounds of an arc welder. Jak was about to speak but I stopped him by putting a finger to his lips.

"Keria you stop right now and come eat! You need the food, those wheels aren't going anywhere!" I scolded.

"That's rights but warmth of Brutter foods wills! I slaves away over ovens and you no wanna eat food?!" Brutter said coming in with four plates.

"No I...ahhh...I'll be down just give me a second." Keria said frustrated. Brutter winked at me as he laid down the plates of food.

"I can't believe you sometimes." Jak said.

"What I have but two rules! Never turn down food people have went out of their way to make you, unless you suspect poison, and buckle up!" I smirked sitting down.

"Would you have toasted to Krew's death?" Torn asked.

"Fuck no! Guy was a tub of lard but he was crazy! Wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him."

"AMEN!" Sig agreed then dug in.

"Well, with you the one doing the throwing who knows." Torn said.

"Cheif strong, help clear rocks in cave once. Made progress surpassing Lurker people togethers. I see with own eyes." Caine said setting me down a plate.

"Yeah yeah, but that's before she became a full out sage! Didn't your powers get weaker after or something?" Daxter asked.

"Yes, with the new found ability to use all of them at once I lost the potency of each individual power." I nodded sighing. To gain you must lose after all.

"Daddy said that it's because before your body was more like that of a channeler! Like Jak! Once you had a eco type in mind it filled your entire body!" Keria said coming in and sitting down.

"She didn't become sage of all ecos over night, how is it that she could maintain the ability to use the others fully?" Ashelyn asked looking to Keria.

"Well, we think that maybe her body forced a sort of amnesia or subconscious suppression. You can't control what you don't even know you have. It was more on a bodily level since she was fully aware of what was happening the whole time."

"Sounds like a load of crap to me! Why not just say that it was the precursors fault and drop it!" Daxter said noticing annoyance with the conversation.

"Glad to see you make it! Here's you food!" Brutter said bustling in with another two plates. He set down a plate for Keira and then sat down next to me with the other.

"Thank you, but it's so much more then that! It has to be!" Keria said continuing onward. "Maybe it was the condition that you were raised in as a child!"

"I don't know, I doubt anyone ever will cause I'm not going to be a science project." I said stabbing into my steak with a snarl.

"Hey, calm down. No one's said anything about that." Jak said patting my shoulder.

"So? What's for dessert?" Sig asked breaking up the tension in the air.

"Oatmeal cookies! They chocolate too!" Brutter beamed. The rest of dinner went without much conversation and when it was done everyone else was eating dessert except me, Caine and Brutter's who were cleaning up in the kitchen.

"Why tense over question?" Caine asked.

"Cheif has many questions asked by many peoples. Most she can't give nor does she find interest in knowing." Brutter explained.

"The questions that truly matter have been answered." I bit out scrubbing the dishes. It was true, at first I was okay with it all. The questions, the research, them trying to pry into my past, but it got old and I just couldn't or wouldn't tell them much of my world. What right did I? I barely felt like I had ever lived in it. Its been years now anyways. I know what I am, and I know I'll never see my world again. I love it here and wouldn't go back now if I could but I missed a lot of things about my world. Good, I was so bipolar when it came to this subject.

After the dishes I hung around the Lurkers and two brilliant not so human anymore dudes. We laughed rough housed a bit and talked about the tunnel systems that resided under the landscape of Haven and Spargus. Pretty soon Brutter was urging me to get to bed, which I was fine with under the conditions that I could go get Jak first. I didn't know where he was sleeping so that meant I didn't know where I was either.

There was only one logical place that my Jak could be, the garage. I made my way to it and found him looking after his vehicle with Keria.

"Jak, come to bed." I called leaning on the door frame.

"Yeah yeah, just a minute." He dismissed quickly not even looking up. I pouted thinking about making him leave with me but opted to just tough it out until he was ready. I padded over to the Hood of his vehicle admiring it before I hopped onto it.

"I'll wait for you to tire yourself out then." I said laying on my side with my head propped up with an elbow.

"Hey Jak, I'm putting more springs on to adsorbe the shock of the ground for better handling." Keria said holding springs in her hands.

"Great but what about weapons?" Jak asked.

"I just refilled your ammo chamber! As far as improving them I'll have to drawl up some ideas first." Keria said kneeling down at the back tire. I idoly felt around the car with my antennas untill I found what felt like ammo.

"Pick your poison." I told Jak.

"Ummm, I think I've had enough of poison thank you." He frowned.

"Noooooo!" I groaned. "I've got a hold of your ammo, pick what eco." I told him.

"Oh! Let's go with Red." He said and I instantly glowed red pumping the ammo full of the eco of choice. Made sense, red would pack a punch to the armor of the other cars. I retracted my antenna's and did the same to mine only I used Dark eco. Cause why the fuck not?

"Really Jackie? Dark eco?" Keria sighed.

"My car, I can fuck it up. Already forced it to take blue eco now. Might as well shove Dark eco into it too." I shrugged.

"We need to invest in making a ride that can actually handle you." Jak said looking up at me.

"Eeehhhhh, no thanks. This is going to be the last time I race so competitively. Maybe a air craft? It would be a lot safer at higher speeds since the sky doesn't have a shit ton of crap to ram into." I mused rolling onto my stomach kicking my feet.

"You wouldn't have that problem if you knew how to drive!" Keria said moodily.

"Eehhhh, to each their own. Some know their way around technology, some around a good old fight and others all six of the eco types. Sue me if I'm not perfect at everything." I sighed then stifled a yawn.

"I should since everyone else seems to think you are." She snapped.

"Ha! Not to my doing deary. I believe your over generalizing things though, Jak knows a lot of things I suck at" I said frowning.

"Yeah, like important things such as using an arc welder! Or fixing a jammed gun or getting eco readings! Or just eco in general! You didn't even have to work half as hard as you should of to obtain sage hood for anything!" Keira yelled causing me to get up and stomp over to her.

"I don't know how many times I have to say this! Not. My. Fault! No one asks for these bull shit hands in life we're dealt. We gotta flip them ourselves, don't expect no help! But first you need to except them for what they are!"

"Guys stop it both of you!" Jak yelled.

"Oh sure! Says the girl who had nearly everyone helping her!"

"I didn't expect anybody to help me Keria! They just did and you know what? You've had help before too!"

"Enough!" Jak yelled. Me and Keria glared at each other for a minute before she huffed and turned away back to her work. I growled and hopped back onto the hood breathing to calm myself down. Jak walked back around and continued working too. Not a single syllable was uttered between the three of us until an hour rolled by. "Okay, I'm done for the day. Well see how it does on the track soon enough." He proclaimed putting up the tools he had been using.

"Yay! Bed time!" I proclaimed light heartedly. "Night Keria!" I said following Jak out. He lead me to his room opened the door, let me in then shut it behind himself.

"You two need to learn to get along." Jak sighed taking off his jacket.

"I know, it's just she's still hung up on you. I can't fix anything until she does. I'm trying but it's hard to when another girls gunning for your man." I admitted.

"I'll talk to her again." Jak said heading to another room I asumed was the bathroom. I followed and watched him leaning against the door frame.

"No, just let her simmer. This is her getting out her anger. Once she does she'll either feel better or she'll continue to be hateful but to be honest, I think she'll come around once she finds another guy or time goes by." I said watching him take off his shirt. My eyes flicked over his topless form shamelessly.

"You sure?" He asked taking off his boots.

"Yeah, if not you can talk to her until I'M blue in the face." I smirked then gasped before turning away blushing as he unbuttoned and started to unzip his pants.

WARNING THIS SCENE WILL BECOME VERY SEXUAL. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!*

"Your adorable." Jak said spining me around. He pressed me to him resting his hands on my hips.

"Your...your almost naked!" I stuttered burying my face in his neck.

"Not that we haven't seen each other fully naked before." Jak shrugged while his hand slipped behind me to grab my ass.

"Well, I've never seen your..uhhh thingy!" I said blushing.

"Your a bad lier."

"No I'm not!"

"We both know that we saw each other in the prison showers."

"N...no..." I said looking away. He gave me this look of, I know your lying. "Okay! I might of accidently snuck a sneak peek at your pecker." I admitted remembering the first time I accidentally saw him. He was in the middle of showering. I was in the corner like usual and he was lightly boxing me in. At this point no one would mess with him seeing as he was looking rougher after a year of experiments. He usually would tap my shoulder to tell me he was there but after a few minutes of waiting I shyly looked over my shoulder.

I was instantly mesmerized by what I saw. Jak had his eyes closed arms on the wall letting the water beat down on him. He looked like for a minute he was in heaven. Then again it had been awhile since his last shower since he had been passed out the last few times. I couldn't stop my eyes from roaming right down to his neither regions. The image burned in my head. I turned away before he opened his eyes but the image would still be there that night. I felt so guilty the next morning waking up feeling aroused after a dream of Jak.

"But how did you know?" I asked face burning.

"I could smell it the next day. At first I was confused why you smelt so different but after a few weeks I figured it out." He smirked squeezing my ass again.

"Oh..." I said suddenly getting really embarrassed. "Did...did you ever look at me?" I asked some how finding a way to look him in the eye.

"At least once a week before I found out you were peeping on me. After that, well let's just say I'm very familiar with your ass." He smirked knowing full well what he was doing to me. "You know it smells good." Jak said his eyes flicking downwards.

"JAK!" I said swatting him on the chest before covering my face. He laughed letting me go and headed to the shower.

"What? I thought we were being honest right now?" Jak slyly said.

"Yes but, did you have to basically pur it to me while fondling my ass? Not to mention the sudden poking! You can't blame that on a tool or gun in your pocket now!" I stammered turning away again.

"Maybe I did, maybe I didn't. You want to join me? For old times sake?" He asked making me look back only for me to nose bleed. That asshole had tooken off his boxers and was now standing there, hand extended for me with a full out hard on. I had two options right now, deny a steamy hot shower with my man who I really wanna do the naughty with. Or rip my clothes off, hop in and enjoy the hell out of myself and possible open the door for other things in the future.

"Yes." I said shaking as I took off the wrist and elbow bands. The fabric hung down to the floor. I peeled the top over my head and dropped it to the floor. I looked back at Jak hooking my thumbs into the waist of my shirt before slowly pulling them down bending when I reached my knees. He didn't make much of a show getting undressed but he made a show none the less, this is what I call pay back with interest.

"Geez!" Jak groaned looking at me bent over legs spread. He could probably see more then just ass at this point. I stepped from the pile of fabric and turned around facing Jak fully. This was the first time we ever got fully naked in front of each other. Obviously we saw each other before but it was on accident or under the pretense that the other didn't know we were being very dirty. I step towards him making him freeze up. I smirked and brushed past him making a shiver tear down my spine at the contact. I checked the tempo and stepped in. Jak was quick to follow stepping behind me.

We got wet then worked on our hair before rinsing out again. I looked behind me to see Jak lathering up a wash cloth looking at me the whole time he did it. I smirked internally and lifted up my hair so that my full back was exposed.

"Can you do my back for me?" I asked him.

"Sure, only if you do mine too." Jak chuckled reaching around with one hand placing it flat on my stomach as the other with the rag started at my tail bone. He was slow and deliberate scrubbing in circular motions as he went up. I braced a hand on the shower wall and the other on top his hand on my stomach. He washed my shoulders then went down to the elbows of my arms before sweeping under them.

I gasped when I felt him reach around and start massaging a breast with the soapy cloth. He paid it too much attention for him to be just washing me. I was about to make a comment but his other hand moved up to play with the other breast. He dropped the soapy rag forgetting about continuing on like he was just being helpful.

"Jak." I whimpered as both his hands kneeded at both mounds of flesh, pinching both of my nipples between his thumb and pointer fingers. I backed up pressing my butt against his erection. He growled sliding a hand down to cup my womanhood making me go ridged. He played with my lips running the tips of his fingers over the crease of them. It was torture, sweet sweet torture!

I ached for him to just dive his fingers in. I grined against him with more urgancy reaching up a hand to grab a fist full of his hair. He lowered his head to my neck kissing and sucking on the flesh available to him. "Please?" I begged touching the arm that was playing with my pussy. I was about to continue begged but stopped when he finally slipped between my pink folds. He flicked his finger over that bundle of nerves making me moan. My hips moved on there own demanding more and grinding against him at the same time.

"Someone's a little demanding today." Jak teased slipping a finger down insided of me.

"Fuck Jak!" I cried as he pumped his finger in and out. He then shoved a second one in making me squirm. "It feels so good!" I gasped throwing my head back. He stopped, turning me around. I whimpered at the lost of contact and looked up at him as he pushed me against the wall. He was quick to return his two fingers inside of me. He pumped in and out of me at a pace that had my head swimming. I reached out and grabbed a hold of his dick. I felt him stiffen, pausing for a second as he regestered what had just happened. I started to slowly work his shaft. He shook off his initial shock groaning as he returned to fingering me with a passion. I speed up as he brought me closer and closer to the edge.

Then, that knot in my stomach tightened till it snapped sending waves of blinding pleasure rippling throughout my body. I screamed out legs turning to jelly underneath me. Jak kept me up with a hand on my sholder and his fingers still pumping in and out of me. When I was finally able to regain some of myself I continued pumping my hand over him. He bucked into my hand.

"Jackie.." He hissed giving me a new found determination as I worked him. Then he went still and my hands suddenly were being covered in his come as it squirted from him. I slowed down and watched it ooze down my fingers onto the ground below where the water carried it down the drain. I stopped once he stopped coming and let my hand drop to my side. Both of us panted looking over the other.

"I...that was..." I started looking at Jak wide eyed. 'We just...I can't beleive I just got fingerd and jerked off Jak!' I marveled in my head.

"Amazing!" Jak smirked bending down to pick up the now not so soapy rag.

"Yes! Amazing! I can't beleive we did that!" I said watching Jak resoap the wash cloth.

"To be honest, I can't either but I'm glad we did." He admitted handing me the rag and turning around. I immediately set out to wash him taking my sweet time. I was just about done when my eyes flooded with tears. I pressed myself against Jak and wrapped my arms around him.

"I love you Jak!" I all but sobbed against him. My heart was pounding so hard that I thought it would rip itself out of its cage and crawl into the palm of Jak's hand.

"I love you too Jackie and I always will." He said turning around to embrace me. I sobbed and rubbed my cheek against his chest squeezing him tightly.

"Really?"

"Really, your stuck with me whether you like it or not." Jak soothed voice laced with humor as his fingers drew patterns on my back.

"Good, cause your stuck with me too!" I smiled looking up at him with a smile. We stayed like that, letting the water beat down on us as we just held each other. Eventually we finished washing off and got out. Jak put on his boxers but I didn't bother with any clothes, just crawled into bed with Jak naked as the day I was born. I laid my head on his chest and wrapped a leg around his waist. He wraped an arm around the small of my back with the other behind his head. We didn't stay awake for long once we we're comfortable.
