We woke up that morning and regrouped at Phenoix's ship. Me and Jak went to town and bought a shoulder bag, back pack and a ton of food for breakfast luch and maybe dinner if we were lucky. As soon as we were out of the store me and Jak Tetrised the stuff into our bags and carried it all back. Along the way I taught Jak about our money system and anything else that I could think off that he really needed to know.

I dished out breakfast to everyone and we talked over what was needed to get back home. I was all for going back but at the same time, my heart yearned to find my little brother. Daxter and Jak went out to do another Stealthy Thief mission. Keira and Tym moved over to the Hellcat which was worse off than the other body damage wise. It was mostly cosmetic damage than anything else but it still needed fixing before we could even get it operational. But after that how would we go back? What would we do, fly around? We would be shot down as a UFO. That's where Tym and Keira would come in I guess.

Another day passed by, then another. It was strangely calming sleeping under the stars of my old world. Jak would hold me tight at night and I would often just tell him little things about my world or past memories here. Daxter was good about keeping his mouth shut during these moments, only cause Jak would glare at him if he didn't. Keira and Tym did the best they could with what they had but it wasn't enough. We needed supplies in order to completely fix everything and money was tight. I really didn't like stealing people's money so I prohibited them from doing so unless I said it was okay.

Phoenix was able to replicate and modify us all Birth Certificates and I.D.'s. I told everyone to keep them on them at all times. They would often ask me questions about my world, most I knew others I didn't. Keira was real interested in our world's way of getting power. I couldn't tell her even the basics but I told her of the Internet and it's vast amounts of knowledge. This made her anxious to get on it, which gave me an excuse to go into town. To go back to my old home. Jak and I were currently standing in front of my old door. They had to of still lived here, the cars where here along with the rusting grill.

"Looks homely." Jak finally said.

"It's home." I said wiping my cheeks before knocking on the door. A dog's bark was heard along with some cursing. My heart leapt into my throat as the door opened revealing a taller, mustached version of my little brother.

"Uhhh, yeah?" He asked.

"Bubbers......" I cried out tackling him in a tight embrace. "I've missed you so fucking much!" I sobbed. He pulled me off of him and looked down in confusion.

"What the heck?

"It's me! Jackie, your older sister!" I said pleadingly.

"Jackie?" He asked looking me over. He hugged me ferociously then pushed me away again. "WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU GO!?" He screamed making Jak push me behind him.

"It's alright babe, it's fine. It's hard to explain but.....maybe this will clear it all up." I said as my antenna's came out and touched his forehead. I did a speedrun of most the things that happened since that fateful night. I don't know how long it took since I myself was lost in my own recollection but after it was done Joseph rubbed his forehead frowning deeply.

"I.....I....fucking shit this is insane. So the other characters are out in the woods?" He asked completely unknowing of what to do or say.

"Yeah, you what we need. Do you know where we could go?" I asked.

"Fuck, come home! Mom's in Pennsylvania at the moment, she won't be back for another month. I'll go pick them up and bring them back. When I get back were going to sit down and actually talk about this." He said reaching over to the table inside for the car keys.
