Jamie watched Jack sleep, making sure she would all right when they left for the night. He looked up to Monoxide, who merely nodded at him. They moved quickly out of her house and stood outside, the rain pounding against their corpses. " What is for tonight?"

" Roaming, that is all." Monoxide said quietly, walking next to his brother. " I went to the underworld."

" What are they doing? Is Jack really going to be ruling?" Jamie asked, becoming nervous. He didn't want that to happen, he knew too much about that realm to feel comfortable to let her rule that place.

" It seems so. Jaxxsin is quite pleased to find someone so strong. She is that, and he knows it. He needs someone strong, but also soon to be dead." Monoxide said quietly. " He wants her to die, he might even send people out after her to kill her, so that she will be his permanently."

Jamie growled. He wasn't going to let that happen. Jaxxsin would not try to slip around the agreement. He wouldn't allow it.

Riddick threw the rest of the beer on the ground and he watched from the alleyway as the two brothers appeared out of a field near the street. A field? Maybe Jack was over there, he didn't know. His thoughts flipped incessantly from Jack and then blood. Riddick licked his lips, the thought of murder was appealing, but the only two people were the brothers; and he could kill one, but the second one even he wasn't sure about.

As quietly as he could, he stalked up near them, watching them. They talked in low, quiet tones, and he couldn't feel anything from them. Most likely from them being dead.

One looked behind and saw him out of the corner of his eye. " Seems we have a visitor brother."

The other one laughed, and drew his hook. " Come out."

Riddick stepped out of the shadow and watched their eyes flicker from hatred to worry.

" Why're you here?"

Riddick glanced towards him briefly, but didn't answer.

Jamie stepped closer, brandishing his hook, and moved closer to Riddick. " Tell us now."

Riddick turned his head sideways, glaring. " Jack, now."

***

Jack stepped around the bodies. She had been coming here for what seemed like an eternity… for six years… 3 months. Jack shook her head. What did Jaxxsin want now?

" My beautiful Jacqueline…" The demon turned towards her.

" Jason…" her throat caught. She wouldn't allow him here now.

***

Jack woke up in cold sweat and her body was shaking. A scream tore from her throat as she saw the note that was hung from her ceiling. She shoved herself backwards against the headboard. She couldn't scream, but only stare at the dead body hanging from her ceiling. " Jamie… Jamie?" She started to cry and whimper. She needed him now.

***

Jamie turned away from Riddick. Jacqueline… " She needs us, we can deal with him later."

Monoxide nodded quickly and they both turned from Riddick, and ran through the field.

Riddick watched them for a second and followed. If they were going to lead him to Jack, that was fine, he just needed to see her once more.

" Jack?" Madrox quietly said as he entered her room. He saw the corpse almost immediately. It looked like a demon's sick joke. He looked over to her bed. She wasn't there. " Jacqueline… it's only me, Jamie, and Monoxide."

Hearing a small squeak, he stepped a few feet forward, stepping away from the body, and he saw Jack hiding down next to her dresser. She was curled up against the wall. He immediately ran over to her, Monoxide following.

Jack threw her arms around his neck and clung to him as he picked her up. " Jamie… god, it's awful… Jason, he was…. My dreams." She barely spoke in between sobs, and she clung to his frame, not wanting to be alone again.

Jamie simply nodded and carried her out of the room, Monoxide following. He walked down the hall with her, and entered the family room, carefully lowering her to the couch. He looked over to Monoxide and moved out of the room.

Monoxide sat by Jack's side and he stroked her forehead. " Do not let it worry you. It is just some cruel joke."

Jack sniffed and turned away. She didn't want to see anyone now. She didn't like the fact that there was a DEAD BODY hanging from her ceiling. She curled herself up into a ball, and tried to cover herself. Maybe just hiding would make it go away. It never went away.

A loud thud made Jack turn around, and she looked up, staring into the eyes… the eyes of Riddick. His eyes flashed against the thunder outside and she struggled for breath as she saw his hands lower to pick her up. " No… no." She cried, trying to claw away from him. She wouldn't let him take her away now. No one could have her now.

To be continued… when? I don't know…
