Who am I?
-furrows brow-
Good question... Thing is, I don't even know...not anymore...not since...
-pauses and studies the young woman's face-
Your eyes are curious, I get that.
-grows a cocky grin-
I'm definitely better lookin' in person.
-decides to remove goggles; blue/fire glowing in the dark-
Heh...love the look on your face. Eerie aren't they?
-leans close and gives a slight grin-
You should see the fake badges when they see'em for themselves. Go from bein' all high and mighty to wide eyed and slack jawed.
-the grin fades-
Fuckin' Mercs...
But you ain't a Merc...are you?
-leans face close, breathing in her scent and growls-
Heh...no. Can't smell their filth on you. And that's what I don't get princess...
-cants head to the side, searching her eyes-
You ain't a Merc, you don't wanna cash in on me...
-narrows his eyes-
So what's with the questions?
-watches her bite her bottom lip-
Why are you; young, intelligent and very easy on the eyes...
-can't help but let his eyes roam her body; licking his lips in a lazy line-
…willin' to converse with Richard B Riddick...escaped Convict, Murderer?
-she tries to explain...somethin' about wanting to know the Man behind the Beast-
Hmmm... Is that right?
-scoffs-
Right...well, I'll be on my way...
-turns to walk away when she stops him-
What?
-glares into her eyes, waiting for her to cower or back away...when she doesn't, he smirks-
This ain't no party, Kid.
-watches her frown; jaw working, eyes suddenly narrowed. Riddick is slightly impressed-
You got some spunk, I'll give ya that.
-allows his face to go blank; voice deepening for effect-
But I ain't got time for your questions.
-she tells him he's a moron and Riddick just looks at her; silent and thoughtful. He waits as she calms herself and quirks a brow when she tells him she can help him-
And how...exactly, do you plan on doin' that…
-he leans toward her, his lips a breath away from hers-
…huh, princess?
-a slow grin devours her lips, a strange fire in her eyes when she whispers something only Riddick can hear. He goes completely quiet. Considers her offer as a breeze dances against them; cold, winter air promising rain-
Hmmm... You sure you want to aid a wanted killer?
-he searches her gaze again...seeing the truth within her depths-
Cuz if you do this...there's no goin' back. Once the Sharks catch your scent they'll be on your ass until they get you or ghost your ass.
-she shrugs...that fire still burning within her gaze. Riddick grows a slight grin at her spirit-
Right then...
-he slips his goggles on-
Remember one thing…
-gives her a grin and motions for her to follow-
…keep your eyes on me…
-Fades to Black-
