Taking off Ace's jumper so he doesn't overheat, Max was thinking about their situation. From what she noticed so far they were on a desert like planet that had 3 suns and there was no sight of life that max could see so far.

Picking up a small pebble to suck on to make her feel less thirsty, Max observed everyone that she could see from where she sat with Ace, who was now playing in the sand.
"Are you thirsty? She asked the child in her lap who nodded looking at her before going back to playing with the sand.
Max knowing that if the others knew that she had water they would insist they split it up equally so she decided to only let the youngest survivors share it seeing as though the adults could last longer.

As Max listened to everyone continue to introduce each other, she noticed none were the boy's parents, she was hoping they had survived for Ace's sake and her own. Max new she wasn't the best role model, hell she didn't even know who she was but what she did know was that she wasn't going to leave this small boy with one of the other survivors or by himself. Grabbing the water bottle from the bag max ripped a small bit of material from her tank top and soaked it in the water making sure she didn't waste any, then giving it to the boy to suck on.

Max stood while putting the water back in the bag then shoving it onto her back before bending down to pick Ace up.
"Come on little one, time to integrate a little so they don't get suspicious." Max said as she walked towards the easiest path to the top of the ship. As she was nearing the top Imam came and helps her with the last few steps, thanking him before he started to introduce her to everyone. 'Well there goes one of my tasks, thank you Imam. No point in getting overly close to anyone, no guarantee that we will all survive'.Max thought grimly while nodding to the individuals that greeted her and giving them a small smile.

"This is Ace. Does anyone remember him arriving on board?" Max asked after the introductions were finished. No one seemed to know until the docking pilot spoke up.
"Yes I remember he came aboard with his father." Fry said while giving Ace a smile which he didn't respond to.
"Yeah, he doesn't seem to be a talker, I'm sure he's just shy." Max tries to explain without going into detail about the child strange behavior.

As everyone starts to go back into what's left of the ship to look for supplies, Max ask both Imam and Jack to stay so she could talk to them.
Addressing Imam first with a piercing gaze, she said.
"I have one bottle of water..."
"that's great, we should go tell the other's at once!" Imam cut in as soon as he heard water. As he went to pass max to find the others, Max grabbed his arm in a steel grip while staring into his eyes with a small amount of venom in her voice.
"ONE bottle of water will NOT go around everyone. I'm giving you the courtesy of telling you so your youngest son can share along with Jack and Ace, they need it more than us adults especially in this heat. " She said through gritted teeth. 'Please don't make me regret informing you Imam, I really don't want you on my shit list.'Max thought while glaring at the older man waiting for his reply.

"You are right. Please extend the graciousness to my other sons as well they are not adults yet and need it also." He said bowing his head slightly in understanding, his smile never quite leaving his face.
"Yeah that's fine." Max smiled then turned to Jack who had been watching anxiously, waiting for them to finish.
"Can you keep this to yourself Jack? Max question looking at the boy with none of the severity that she had with the older man.
"Of course, my lips are sealed." He said excitedly while fidgeting. 'A.D.D much?' Max laughed at the boys antics.

After ripping a bit of Jacks shirt to soak in the water after he had a sip of water and telling Imam when he saw his sons to tell them to come find her. Max decided to go back into the ship for shade and to sort out what weapons she could use and what would slow her down.
As she entered the doorway she noticed that Riddick wasn't chained to the post anymore, this made her smirk which she hid when Johns came back from what looked like a sprinting marathon.

"Max, good to see you are alright. I would stay in the ship near us from now on though." He wheezed trying to get his breathing back to normal.
"You to Johns. what's wrong?" Max said trying to hide her amusement with the situation to do with Riddick and the dislike for the man in front of her who seems to be the only one who is on her shit list.

"Riddick escaped and he seems to be heading in the direction of the blue sun, but he could sneak up on one of us at any time if he wanted to." Johns explained, then only just noticing the child in Max's arms, making his eyes widen slightly in surprise.
"Is that your son?" He asked like he had a lemon in his mouth, making Max raise an eyebrow.

'Should say yes, might keep him away from me.' Though Max decided not to incase the child had a mother that is still alive somewhere. So not wanting to confuse the young boy Max answered honestly.
"No, but I will be looking after him until a family member claims him." And with that she walked off not wanting to deal with him anymore than necessary.

As she was making her way back to the room with the cryo chambers, there was a noise over near a small metal cage like container, making Max pause while scrutinizing the object for danger. Carefully setting Ace down onto a fallen chamber, Max slowly made her way closer while pulling out a handgun from its holster on her right thigh.

Before she could even register what was happening she was on her back looking up into two animalistic silver eyes, a scream stuck in her throat.
'Oh fuck.'
