Chapter 2

There was a long beeping sound. Caroline rolled over and hit the button on her alarm. She sat up and shook her head. Tears streamed down her face. She had another dream about Riddick. He reached out his hand and told her to come with him but every time he she took a step he kept getting farther. Then he was taken by the dim lighted streets of Corprey where he left her almost three years ago. She wiped her tears and got up. She walked to the bathroom.

" Lights on." she said as she looked into the mirror.

" Shower on." she heard the water splash onto the ground. She striped from her long shirt and underwear she used to sleep in. Caroline stared into the mirror. The scar from the alien was almost gone. Her hair was down to her shoulders. She stepped into the shower letting the warm water caress her body.

She threw on the black body suit that lay on her bed. She put her hair into a ponytail and grabbed the remote control from her table and pressed in a certain code. A wide screen was projected onto her wall. A young woman's face appeared.

" Hey Fry." the young girl smiled. She had green eyes and brown hair.

" Hey Jack. So, what's our schedule?"

" We have flight training in an hour, gym in three and then we have to take some mercs to Corprey." she said almost with a sigh.

" Corprey?"

" Yah, anyway, just come get some food and we'll go to training together."

Fry smiled and clicked off. She took a deep breath.

" I can do this." she said walking to the doors, " Open doors." The large metal doors separated and she walked out.

" You all right?" asked Jack as Fry sat staring out the window into space.

" Huh, " she said snapping back to reality, " Oh yah, I'm fine."

" Are you sure you want to go to Corprey?"

" Yah, I'm fine. That was three years ago. I'm over it." she lied. She knew it wasn't true, but she didn't fell like backing down. It had been a couple months since she had flown anything that actually breathes.

" Well, come one, we have to go do a system check before we go, we don't want any more Hunter Grazna's do we?" said Jack with a smile. Fry laughed.

" Ok, lets go."

 They headed down the busy halls of the flying school down to the landing and boarding strip.

" Oh fuck that." yelled Jack looking at the name.

" What."

" The ship is called Hunter Grazna 2."

" Yah, I flown her before, its really scary sometimes."

" I'm not even flying it, shit I'm even on it and imp already fucking freaked out."

Fry laughed and pulled Jack into the ship.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                Ok, this is for all you people who have no idea what is going on here. After Riddick left they flew to the nearest planet and said their goodbyes. Jack told Fry she wanted to become a pilot. Fry took her back and enrolled her into the school. Soon they became best friends. Some times they wrote to Iman saying that they were ok. Anyways Jack is supposed to be like 16 in this story ok?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                    " All systems go in the main bridge." said Jack coming from the back of the ship.

" Ok, go check the hull breach." she said clicking on a few buttons.

" Sure." Jack went to the very back with her electronic clipboard.

Fry pulled out of her chair and looked out the opening. Ten mercs were marching her way. One had red hair and blue eyes.

" Johns?" she whispered to herself. She was shot back to the dead planted.

" So we die out of shear fucking nobility." she said staring at the screen, her hand on the handle.

" Don't you touch that handle. Fry!" she felt a second of remorse for Owens.

She was sent back to the bone yard were Johns smiled.

" Guess I'm a little more glad to be here than I thought."

She felt almost charmed. Then she was taken to the skiff where Riddick and her had their heart to heart.

" You think Johns is a do right man. You think I could trust him to cut me loose?"

" Why, what did you here?" she said with a weak smile.

She felt his breathing on her neck.

" The creed is greed-"

" Don't waste my time. Where not going to turn on each other no matter how hard you try." Then she saw driven to the last kiss before he left her.

" Ma'am?" she was felt a strong hand on her shoulder. She opened her eyes to a young man with blue eyes and red hair. She stared at him for a minute before he said anything.

" Ma'am, are you ok?"

" Oh yah, sorry. You look like some on I used to know."

" William Johns?" he asked with a smiled.

" Yah how did you...."

" He's my father, I'm Mark."

" Oh, he seemed so young."

" Well, he was thirty eight, and I'm twenty. You can do the math right?" he said tipping her chin.

The other mercs boarded after he passed by her.

" We leave in an hour. Cryo sleep in two." she said showing him around.

" Uh huh." he said nodding his head. His crew was following them. Jack rounded the corner and her mouth dropped open. She stared at Johns who had a confused look on his face. She started to breathe in short raspy breaths.

" Jack, its not him." said Fry walking over to her.

"Its his son."

Mark walked over and stuck out his hand. Jack stared at and looked up.

" Um ok." said Mark pulling away slowly.

" You're still part of him." she said running down the hall and turning around the corner out of site.

Mark had a bizarre look on his face.  Fry felt bad for the young girl. She had loved Riddick, and Johns was going to take that away from her. Shit, Johns was going to kill her. Riddick had told Fry that when Iman and Jack were asleep. She knew he liked her. No matter what he said, he liked her. Had saved her hadn't he?

" What the hell was that about?" asked a bewildered Mark.

" Nothing, anyways." she said walking again, " May I ask why your going to Corprey?"

" Sorry ma'am, that's classified."

" Oh." she said with a sigh.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

They landed on Corprey and checked into some rooms down the street from the ship.

" Why are we staying?" asked Jack looking around.

" This is your first flight right?"

" Uh uh."

" Ok, well, we stay one night, then the next mourning we leave."

" God this place brings back so many memory's."

" Yah, it does."

" You think he's still here?" asked Jack rolling over to look at the other bed where Fry was laying. She was staring at the wall.

" I dunno'" she said turning to her. She gave a comforting smiled and Jack returned it. She jumped up and Fry turned startled from the sound of the bed. The room had gotten really quiet.

"I'm going to go get a soda and some food, want anything?"

" Nah. Be care full though, this place is really bad."

" I know I know Mom." she said smiling. Fry smiled and Jack walked out.  She whistled as she walked down the hall in her skintight gray flight suit. An old man was walking by. He looked grungy with scars and tattoos. She could tell he had been to prison. She walked by and felt a hand on her arm. She began to scream but the man quickly over powered her and covered her mouth. He ran with her out side and shoved her into the nearest ally. She backed up into the wall tears flowing down her cheeks.

" Now, what s a girl like you doing in a place like this."

" Get away." she said as he approached her with a wicked smile. She felt her stomach collapse as she cried.

" There are bad people out here tonight." he said beginning to unbuckle his pants. In a blink of an eye, the man was laying on the ground blood emitting from his throat. She looked up as a large muscular man stood in front of her.

" People like me." he said.

" Riddick?"
