Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction / InuYasha Fan Fiction / Fan Fiction ❯ Another Side, Another Story ❯ The Metallic Cursade ( Chapter 2 )

On a balmy summer's day in a placed called `Haven City'…

…a young man around about 21 years, with intensly blonde hair w/green roots, long pointy ears, and clothed in a blue tunic, tan pants, and brown boots, speeds through the crowded walkways of the Bazzar on a anti-gravity hover board. Clinging for dear life on his back was a orange weasel-like animal wearing brown gloves and a leather helmet with two binocular lens on top. "JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAK!!! SLOO-OOO-OOWW DOOO-OOOOWNNNNN!!!!!" The boy looked to him and smiled. "And risk getting caught by the Krimzon Guard? No way!"

He averted his gaze forward again. "Come on Daxter. Where'd YOUR sense of fun fall off?" The one called `Daxter' replied trough gritted teeth. " ABOUT 2 MILES BACK ALONG WITH MY NON-EXSISTANT LUNCH!!" The boy laughed and crouched down his board to avoid colliding with a broken pillar. A few paces behind them were several groups of soldiers dressed in red armor and held long electro-shock sticks firm in their grasp. They were about 50 of them chaseing the two guys, some on hover bikes, some on foot. Either way, if the boy stopped, he would be killed for sure.

People scattered as the duo exited the bazzar and into the farm area. Yakcows mooed and bobbled out the way as fast as they could, but the Krimzon Guard still had a terrible time navigating through them. The boy turned to Daxter. "Ok Dax, let's take this thing to the max!" (no pun intended) With that, the boy leaped into the air and did a complete 360 on his board and landed, getting a burst of speed in the process. "WHOOO-HOOO!!! TORN! HERE WE COME!" And they tore off in the direction of the slums.

*** At Torn's Hideout ***

"Jak! What were you thinking, having all of those gaurds after you?! What if you were caught? What if you lead them here?"

Jak rolled his eyes. "Come on Torn. None of those things happened, so everythings peachy, right? Another man, this time with auburn braids and blue jumpsuit, slapped his hand on the wide circular table in front of him. " No, it's NOT alright Jak! Look, you don't unerstand. Even if baron Praxis is gone, the Krimzon Guard STILL hate us. You and your rat, er..Daxter..can NOT go pussyfooting around Haven City like it's nothing." He gave Jak a stern look. "Remember Jak. If you get caught, we as a Underground, will deny your exsistance…" Jak grinned at Torn's consistant solomn-ness. "Torn…" Torn held up his hand. "I don't want excuses or explainations. It's a waste of my time and yours. Besides, I have a mission for you…

*** Outside of the Dig***

Jak stepped out of the Air Train and gazed into the enterance of the Dig. "(sigh) I don't know why Torn is making me do this…I killed Kor years ago…

((((Previous Conversation @ the Underground Hideout)))

Torn: "Jak, other member of the Underground have reported suspicious movement in the Dig."

Jak: "Again?"

Torn: ::nods:: "But this time…Its not lurkers…or just Metal Heads.

Jak: "Not JUST Metal Heads? Then…What is it?"

Torn: "Well, judging from the amount of energy radiating from the place…we suspect its Kor…"

Jak: "Kor? That's impossible! I-"

Torn: (is annoyed)"Nothing is impossible Jak… Except getting Ashlien to sleep with me…" (more to himself than Jak)

Daxter: (face-faults) O_O;

Jak: "Boy, do I ever know how you feel. I've been throwing hints at Keira for weeks, and she still won't-"

Daxter: (double face-faults) O__________O;;

Torn: "THAT'S NOT THE POINT OF THIS CONVERSATION JAK!" (blushes)

Jak: "But you-"

Torn: (exasperated and embaressed) "Just get going ok?!"

(((back in present)))

Jak sighed and turned to Daxter. "Well. We'd better get going…" Daxter nodded. "Right. But uh…say Jak?" Jak proceeded down the steps and toward to Dig. "Yea?" Daxter hopped from his shoulder and stood in his path. "Did you really ask Kiera for some…well, you know..?" Jak shrugged. "Yea. Why?" Daxter did the biggest face-fault he could muster, then jumped on his friend's shoulder, laughing. "Why Jak, You little playboy! See, I told you that ya still got tha mojo!" Jak smirked and they did their secret handshake. ( the one you see when they accqiure the hoverboard permanently. Which doesn't make is secret I guess…but this is a omnition story, so that's irrelevent)

The two entered the dig and looked around for any signs or clues that would help their cause.
