*Disclaimer* Let's see… I own Lynette, and that's all… so leave me alone because I make no money off this, nor do I want to be sued. Yay! Now read the story.

Jack eyes fell back into her head, and she grabbed the wall for support. Her body was weak, but she couldn't call for anyone. She had just walked out on Riddick. Jesus, she thought and shook her head. Riddick… Eight years hadn't taught her anything. She was too hardheaded to let him help her; she knew it… and she admitted it, to herself at the least.

She thought about calling Jamie, but he was probably already watching. She could rely on the brothers for support, when she needed it; otherwise, she was on her own. She slowly walked outside, sitting on her front steps. It had all gone wrong, and she had thrown him out. Jack sighed, she did do what she wanted to and she couldn't regret it.

Well, Jack could regret it, but she wouldn't allow herself to. Riddick was smarter than he let on most of the time. He could've easily found her. She was less than an hour from her original home; he had just lost his concentration. She sighed. Why now? Why did he always appear at the time she needed him the most, but she wouldn't allow herself to have him.

Jack pulled at a strand of her short hair and smirked. She would hate herself in a few months, when she was being tortured like always, when she would be forced to cry for him. They, the demons, loved to watch her cry. It made them all smile and laugh, just to watch her in pain for a man who didn't seem to care.

If you keep to yourself, he will kill you.

More voices, not the demons. They didn't bother her anymore with talking… just actions. She leaned against the wall of the door and huddled close. Someone else was watching her, just waiting… She didn't know if it was good or bad.

" It depends on what you would call good."

A woman's voice startled Jack. It was always male voices taunting her, but she looked up and saw a woman in loose black pants and a loose black shirt. Her dark red hair was tied back and her bright silver eyes narrowed on Jack's. " Don't mind the clothes; they become pointless where I'm from."

Jack stared.

" I'm Lynette." She smiled sweetly and bent down in front of Jack. " You're dealing with Jaxxsin, aren't you?"

Jack moved away from Lynette. " What the hell does it matter? I'm just going to die and end up going there anyway; why not now?"

Lyn laughed, standing up and turning from Jack. Her eyes looked towards the sky. " Oh yes, you have been dealing with those demons. What about the brothers… they are…?" She turned back towards Jack.

" Don't talk about them; they're all I have." Jack muttered. She heard Lyn's thoughts for a second, then turned to her. " Who are you?"

" Glad you asked." Lyn said, smiling. " I am, even though I look like a commoner, an angel. Nothing too special, but people have been concerned."

Jack sneered, looking towards the sky. " If God wants my soul, he can sure as hell fight Jaxxsin for it; there is no way that I can keep it."

Lyn laughed. " Aren't we depressed."

" Fuck you, you don't know me…" Jack wiped at the tears in her eyes. She wouldn't cry because she didn't have Riddick. She wouldn't let herself.

Lyn bent back down and touched Jack's cheek. " Do not cry for him, all will come around in due time."

" I hate him." Jack muttered.

She smiled. " I know, but hate will pass, and your love may come back."

" May?"

" The fate of you and the rest of the world, sorry to say, lies on your strength of mind and discpline. Do not give into Jaxxsin, and I will help you as I can." Lyn said quietly, her bright gray eyes shining.

Jack turned away. " You are an angel, aren't you?"

" I would believe so." She nodded. " I must go, I have others to v isit. Save yourself Jack, you can do it. Do not let them get to you." Lynette said simply, and was gone in a flash of bright light.

" What the hell… why do I always get stuck with the demons and angels…" Jack shook her head. She wanted to believe that woman, but how could she control everything when it felt like she had no control over anything?

TBC…
