Chapter 17: Money bags pain! 


It was the morning after the night hunt. Jak & Daxter didn’t tell the others about Nightmara yet. They wanted to give me time to prepare myself. Ulquiorra was still trying to cope with having most of memories gone & he seemed to doing fine at it. However I didn’t wake up so well. I was sleeping peacefully when a loud scream scared me awake but also pissed me off. What now? I moaned. I looked to see a dazed yet furious Stormo & Ulquiorra standing in front of his bed with everyone else staring mostly Ulquiorra with Jak & Daxter joining the group. What the heck is wrong with you?! Are you trying to give me a heart attack?! Stormo yelled. What an interesting big nosed creature. Able to live without no arms, no legs, no neck & no wings attached yet its right here alive. Ulquiorra said. Uh oh. I said. What? Daxter asked. Stormo has issues especially when someone commits about his nose. Melody explained.

Stormo grew even madder. Big nosed?!!!! Why you pale little white horned emo clown!!! Stormo raged as it ran straight towards Ulquiorra. Stormo was about to strike until a big pale pinkish red octopus tentacle grabbed & restrained him. Hey! Stormo shouted as he faced me & so did the others. The octopus tentacle was actually a tail which was attached to me. Did Geri just grow an octopus tail?! Daxter screamed. Put me down! Stormo howled. Calm down. Ulquiorra just woke up & we don’t want you knocking him out. He didn’t mean to insult you. I explained. The dude was staring at me when I was asleep & decided to poke my nose while I was conked out! Stormo shouted. Well, excuse me for being curious. It’s just I never sign anything as interesting as you before or the rest of you guys to be exact even though its due for my lost memories. Ulquiorra explained.  Stormo calmed down as I placed him on the floor.

Ulquiorra has lost most of his memories along with being in a coma from the same source. He’ll be helping us out to see if his memories come back. I already informed him about you guys but not the description though. I explained. You mean he’ll be temporally joining the team? SonicAsura asked. Yes. I said. SonicAsura just nodded. The octopus disappeared into energy. So Jak, we have a mission today don’t we? I asked. Yep. Krew called us in. We need to head to his place. Jak explained. SonicAsura, SoulFlare & Lucian…can you please stay here & watch Raiden, Xiao Lin, Frost & Flare for me? While we’re gone? I asked. Okay. SonicAsura said. Aw man! Raiden shouted. Don’t fuss. It’s for your guy’s safety. I said. Fine just be come back safe. Raiden said. I will. I replied.

We quickly left & headed straight towards Krew’s place. I was riding Inferno Blade with Melody & Velanova holding onto me, Jak & Daxter were riding their Zoomer behind me, Ulquiorra was next to Inferno Blade & Seigen, Tatsushiro & Stormo were next to Jak & Daxter but there wasn’t any separation. This place seems more lifeless than at night. Ulquiorra said. These people are shattered. Barely any souls living in them but they are holding on. The Underground is fighting back the Baron & is giving these people some hope. I explained. Ulquiorra noticed I was wearing my white dragon Anbu mask. What’s with the mask? Ulquiorra asked. You mean my Anbu mask? I decided to wear it while traveling so the guards won’t see my face. I said. What is an Anbu mask? Daxter asked.

It’s the sign of a person being an part of the Anbu Black Ops which are powerful & secret ninja force that works for village leaders & the 5 Kages that usually carry out S rank missions, stealth & assassination missions. I explained. Why do you know so much about them? Jak asked. Because I part of the Anbu Black Ops. I’m an Anbu, the highest rank to be exact. I replied. Whoa. That’s crazy. Daxter said. Yeah. When I don’t have missions for my team I take on Anbu missions. Joined when I was 7 years old & I’m still working. I said. You must be really powerful to be an Anbu. It’s like being a Espada but for Shinobi. Ulquiorra explained. I guess you’re right on that. I replied. I just hope Raiden didn’t aboard like last time. Stormo said.

Don’t worry. SonicAsura is watching him & its hard to escape her. I told them. I saw that the saloon was in view & we were close. We stopped at the side of the door which is where we parked Inferno Blade & Jak’s Zoomer. I took off my mask & put it in my bag. We’re here. Now let’s see what Krew wants us to do for today. I explained. Probably to beat, shake down or blow up someone or something. Jak answered. Melody & Velanova laughed for a while. Does this happen normally? Ulquiorra asked. Yes. I replied. We walked into the saloon. We came in but there was no sign of Krew but instead was a white young lady with blond hair & blue eyes wearing a red headband, a very short green jacket & white shirt that showed most of her skinny stomach, blue shorts & black shoes behind the bar working. We sat down at the bar as Daxter hopped onto the table. Hey sweet cheeks! You new here? I was wondering if you have something hot &…Daxter then stopped as he recognized her face. Hey. You work for the Underground. Daxter said but the woman put her hand on Daxter’s mouth.

Sh. My name is Tess & I’m here to spy on Krew. If you play along maybe we can help each other out. Tess explained as she took her hand off Daxter’s mouth. You must be the Akamishi Legends team Torn told me about. It’s nice to meet you. Tess explained. It’s nice to meet you too Tess. I replied. Let me help you out. Daxter said as he went behind the bar & began to start messing around in the cabinet. Oh…what we got here? Daxter asked as he began to drink the random liquor then started to sound drunk as he threw the empty bottles everywhere. You suppose that is real gold floating in there? Wo! Daxter yelled drunk as he threw another bottle. We were just smiling while I secretly recorded this. (I have the record ability which allows me to record events in my memory then play them through a holographic screen created with my mind. Usually used for missions or hilarious moments.) Krew came in & stopped next to Jak. Alright, I need you guys & the talking rat to do a task for me. Krew asked.

Daxter popped up from the counter in a drunk daze. Hey Five chins, *hiccup* how’s crimes? Daxter asked. Jak smiled while the rest of us laughed except for Krew who was pissed off & Ulquiorra that seemed to have no sense of humor. Kill joys. What’s his problem*notices Ulquiorra* & whose the pale stiff? Krew asked. Ulquiorra & he is an ally of ours. I answered. That pale emo is Miss boob’s friend. Daxter laughed. I slapped Daxter hard as he fell on the table & he began to sing horribly. I about to make a huge payment. My payers will be dropping money bags all around the city. I need you guys to collect each money bag & bring it here. Krew explained. DRY!!! You know Krew…this place could be a really swinging joint. Hip Heg Heaven with more dancin…more maccin…more WOMEN!!! Daxter shouted as he attempted to kiss Jak who blocked his drunk affection.

I want you collect all 14 money bags before someone else picks them up. If you miss one money bag then don’t come back ey! Krew shouted as he left. Tatsushiro! I shouted. Got it. 3 Tailed Style: Mini Water Pistol! Tatsushiro shouted as he fired a big sphere of pressurized water from his mouth at Daxter. Daxter was sent flying into the wall drenched & out of his drunk daze. Ugh…What happened & why do I smell like turtle spit? Daxter moaned in pain. Come on. We got a bunch of money bags to collect! I shouted as we quickly left the saloon with Daxter dragged in tow. We immediately headed off looking for the money bags. Let’s split up so we can cover more guard & find more money bags. I said. Okay. Ulquiorra said. Melody, Inferno Blade will search north, Ulquiorra, Jak & Daxter will search east & Tatsushiro, Stormo & Velanova will search west. Alright? I asked as Velanova flew off me. Got it! They shouted. We immediately split up & headed our different ways. My team was running through the city looking out for money bags which I say is a pain in the rear to find them especially in this kind of city. I immediately spotted one hanging on a hook of one of the bridge’s support beam.

There’s the first money bag! Melody shouted. I’m on it! I shouted. Inferno Blade drove closer to the beam fast. We passed by but I managed to grab the money bag without it tearing. However my action didn’t go without being spotted. A Krimzon Guard spotted me grabbing the money bag. Did he know the contents of the bag? No. Did he let us go? What do you think? The moment we got the first money bag a siren went off. Melody turned around to see a bunch of Krimzon Guard Zoomers flying after us. Pull over! One of the guards shouted. Oh crap. 0_0 Melody said as she faced me. We’re being followed by Krimzon Guards! Melody shouted. I think they think we’re stealing money or delivering weapons. That’s why they’re chasing us I believe plus you look suspicious with the mask on. Inferno Blade explained. Oh, shut up! I shouted. Inferno Blade actually laughed for once even though it wasn’t the time to do it. Let’s focus on the money bags while getting out of these guys hair! I shouted as Inferno Blade went faster. However it seemed that the Krimzon Guard upgraded they’re Zoomers because they seemed to be catching up.

Two Zoomers managed to drive next to Inferno Blade. One on each side. The guards began to slammed their vehicles into Inferno Blade sandwiching him. Hey! Quit it! Inferno Blade howled. What?! Did that machine just talk?! Both guards shouted. Yes & this machine’s got saw blades! Inferno Blade shouted as two saw blades came from each of his sides. The blades sliced the Zoomer’s engines in half causing the two guards to crash. The saw blades then vanished within Inferno Blade. I didn’t know you have saw blades. Melody said. That’s nothing. Check this out. Inferno Blade said as two blasters came from both of his sides & a lock on screen appeared in between his handles. I aligned cursor to the multiple red targets that I believe are Krimzon Guards which took me a few seconds to align them all. So long! Inferno Blade shouted as he fired a barrage of red energy like fireballs from the blasters. The fireballs wiped out the Krimzon Guard Zoomers causing them to crash. And goodbye! I shouted. I spotted the next money bag up ahead. It was hanging from one of the signs but it wasn’t out of reach for us. Inferno Blade! Go nice & steady! I shouted as I climbed up & stood on Inferno Blade’s seat.

I hang out my hand to the right side. I immediately grabbed the money bag as Inferno drove under it. I sat down on Inferno Blade’s seat as I tied the other money bag behind Inferno Blade tightly so both won’t drop. That’s two. Leaving two money bags left to retrieve. I said. How do you know? Melody asked. I picked up their scents when we got the first money bag. I answered. How are you able to smell through that mask? Melody asked. There are small air holes for me to breath through. I replied. Fail! Inferno Blade replied. Shut up. Melody groaned. Heh. I said. I immediately got a call from Jak. I answered though Inferno Blade’s communicator. Yes, Jak? I asked. How are you guys doing on the money bags? Jak asked. We already got two. How many do you have? I asked. We got one so screw you. Daxter answered. Daxter! You’re not supposed to say that to girls! Jak shouted as we heard him punch Daxter. We’ll talk to you later. I said as I hanged up on Jak.

Money bag dead ahead! Melody shouted as she pointed to what looked like a money bag falling to the ground from a very high place. Go Inferno Blade!! I shouted as Inferno Blade picked up speed. I immediately jumped off of Inferno Blade & into the air. I caught the money bag & landed back on my seat. Melody took the bag & tied to the back like the others. That’s three! Melody shouted. Now where’s the last one? Inferno Blade asked. Is back the way to Krew’s place. Weird but let’s hurry. I said. Inferno Blade immediately turned around & we headed back to the way to Krew’s place. However we weren’t in for a pleasant surprise. Along the way back we saw trouble. There were 10 Krimzon Guards surrounding a 14 year old white human boy with brown spiky hair & blue eyes wearing a black shirt & blue shorts along with black shoes holding what looked like one of Krew’s money bags. He was in trouble. Inferno Blade stop! I shouted as Inferno Blade stopped. Any last words thief? One of the guards asked. Leave him alone! I shouted as I jumped in front of him.

What the?! The guards shouted. !!! The boy thought. I drew Wailing Dark in one second as all of the guards were immediately cut down in that time. I faced the boy put Wailing Dark back in its scabbard. Are you okay? I asked. I’m fine. Thank you for saving me. The boy answered. Your welcome. Anyway that money bag you’re holding is something I need to deliver. Where did you find it? I asked. I found it lying on the street at Bazaar where I live at & picked it up. Then those guards decided to attack me for it. You can take it. I don’t want it. The boy said as he gave me the bag. Thank you. I said as I showed my face to him for a minute before I put my mask back on. I hopped back on Inferno Blade & we headed off. Come on. Let’s go back to Krew’s place. I said. That’s four money bags. I wonder how many the others got now. Melody asked puzzled. Let’s go check up them. Inferno Blade said as he called Jak & Stormo. Jak was the first to pick up.  What’s up? Jak asked.

We collected all of the money bags in our area. How about you? I asked. We just collected the fifth one. Stormo & Tatsushiro have already gotten the last 5. We’re heading back to Krew’s place right now. See ya. Jak explained as he hanged up. We immediately rode back Krew’s place at the same time as Jak & Tatsushiro’s teams made it. It looks like we arrived at the same time. That’s a first. Is Inferno Blade getting slower? Daxter asked he walked up to Inferno Blade. You’re missing with the wrong person! Inferno Blade shouted as he blew his horn very loudly & in Daxter’s ears scaring the living crap out of the ottsel as he fell down paralyzed like a stone statue. You just got owned! Velanova shouted. Come on. Jak said as he grabbed his five money bags & the paralyzed Daxter. We entered along with Jak. We saw Krew waiting for us but no Tess in sight.

She was probably off work right now. We dropped the money bags near the door. Krew faced us. Well done. Here’s a gun upgrade. Now leave me. I need my beauty nap. Krew explained as he tossed an upgrade to Jak. We all rose our eye brows in disbelief. Trust me brother. There’s not enough hours in the day. Daxter said as Velanova & Melody laughed & Krew raged. We immediately left him & headed home. We all called it for a day after the pain in the rear money bag mission yet it was good to warm up like that doing the mission. However that boy I met was going into the play real soon. Right now we were going to deal with an enemy that even I can’t defeat now. As the darkness approaches & evil casts its shadow of destruction. When the demon of darkness & the dragon of shadow unites a new warrior of darkness shall rise. The shadow demon Jakeri!
Jak & Akamishi Legends's mission for Krew gets whacked when the Krimzon Guards decides to interfere.
