*Regret*
One by one the people began shuffling into the cryo chamber. Riddick looked carefully at all of them, none of them were her. He was certain she was on the ship, he just didn't know where. But what was he going to do if he DID know where she was, yell to her? No, that wasn't an option. The fact was, he couldn't do anything… he was tied up practically on display like a piece of mean in a butch shop. It was Riddick's absolute favorite position to be in, "Yeah fucking right." He scowled in his mind. Then as if a 500 pound weight had fallen on him he caught her scent. "She's here, Enigma is HER, so close," he thought as he scanned the room for her. She was in the room now, but which one was she? Searching in the only manner he could he tried to zero in on her scent. Finally… dead center in front of him… there she stood. A tall blonde wearing shorts and a tank top with her back turned to him. It looked nothing like Enigma but Riddick knew it was her, "besides, what'd you expect, Dickey, for her to look the same? She's not a fucking idiot she knows that people will look for her and she needs to be disguised," he scolded himself in his head. Suddenly-blue contacts meeting covered eyes-she turned around and there; not even five feet away, enigma stood staring up at him. She was so beautiful, he could see what would have been tears-if she could cry-welling up from her eyes. He looked to the left of her and a saw a kid that didn't look a day over 13 standing next to her. "That isn't…? No! It can't be! Jesus Christ get a fucking hold on yourself!" He yelled in his mind. Who was the kid? Was it hers? Was it theirs? "No! No, absolutely not!!!" Was Enigma going soft and she picked the kid up off the street? He didn't care; all that mattered was that SHE was there. He wanted to reach out but he couldn't. He stood there just staring back down at her through his goggles. She mouthed the name "Riddick" but there was no sound. He didn't know how to respond he couldn't, not with all the people around; it'd be risking both their asses. She closed her eyes for a brief moment when she opened them it was at though it were a different person, a hard look suddenly took over the vulnerable one she had worn. Her nostrils flared, her jaw clenched, and her eyes held a gaze that was ice cold. She was a mirror image of him. He'd hand it to her, she was one hell of an intimidator; she could make a grown man piss himself. She looked as if she were about to break the glass that stood between them. Her muscles tightened, and as she was about to pounce she turned and walked to her pod, which happened to be directly across the room from his.
Jack followed Enigma to her pod, oblivious to the interaction between Riddick and Enigma that had just taken place. She too was completely unaware of Enigma's negative vibes, which radiated for miles from her. "When is this kid gonna back the fuck off me?" Enigma wondered. "Last time I ever fucking try to be nice. For fuck's sake, Enigma, you should know by now that nice gets you all of nowhere and a lot of shit on the way! What were you thinking? Johns knows who you are and Jack knows WAY too much… you're fucking careless as shit! You'll pay for all of that and you know it girl! NO MORE of that 'sharing' shit, you just drag up emotions and emotions fuck you six ways from Sunday. Jesus Christ, Enigma, what ever happened to looking out for number one? Quit trying to be a fucking saint, shit knows that's out of the question. No one could give two shits for you so return the favor and don't try to be the girl's fucking hero! You've said too much to everyone, time to go into survival mode… you know the second you get off this ship Johns will be all over you like white on rice in a fucking snow storm so get your thumb out of your ass! You are Enigma J. fucking Ariviachi murder and escape convict, act like it; not like some candy assed bimbo!" She screamed in her head.
Enigma strapped herself into her cryo pod and Jack took the pod to the right of her and strapped in as well.
Enigma: I hate cryo sleep more than anything *she said aloud more to herself than anyone else.*
Jack: Me too, it fucking sucks!
Enigma: Wasn't asking *rudely*
Jack: Then it doesn't really matter does it? *smarting off*
Enigma: Look kid… our little heart to heart is over. My obligation is filled. You keep talking shit to me like that and I'll slit your throat while you sleep *gazing at Jack through determined eyes.*
Jack: You can't do that *almost completely convinced.*
Enigma: Don't tempt me *a predatory looked coming over her face*
Jack: God, what's stuck up your ass all of a sudden? *being completely offended by Enigma's sudden change in personality*
Enigma: Jack… look, I'm not the person you think I am so stop trying to make me out to be that someone. I aint your fucking mother or anyone else special… for all you know I could be some sick fuck. Kid, don't be so trusting; you're gonna get yourself killed like that. Just pretend you never met me… I'm just a figment of your imagination; I'm not here and I never was. Believe me kid it's in your best interest.
The gentleness of her voice surprised both she and Jack. Enigma had betrayed everything she'd told herself. She'd already messed this kid up so now she had to bury Jack along with everything else. She was sweeping up, she'd done all she could do and she probably just fucked the kid up worse on the way. "Sorry Jack," she apologized in her head.
Jack: Shut the fuck up, Kaylee. You don't know what you're talking about. You think you know me but you don't have the first clue about me!!! *whispering nastily*
Enigma: And you don't know me, so stop pretending to yourself that you do. I told you Jack… it was a one time deal so back off
Enigma knew she'd just torn the kid to pieces but what else could she do? She'd just fuck Jack's life up royally, so she chose to end all ties before she caused too much damage-or at least anymore. Just then the cryo sleep kicked in. Enigma could only hope that once Jack awoke that all would be forgotten, but it was highly unlikely. Why'd she let Jack in? She'd just killed another person not literally but inside she knew a part of Jack had just died. "Fuck humanity… I left that idea when he left me. Jack brought it on. Enigma, watch your own back; number one always comes first and don't you ever forget that!" Her inner voice raged on as her body slept.
