The Chronicles of Riddick: Inside the Eyes
Chapter 1
The Story of a Single Man and a Woman
The Desert Mountains of the land stood high. Shadows were spilled among it like demons that roamed the land. Men were on the hunt for a single man. A man that was said no one could kill. A man of true immortality. Some say he is a ferocious killer, but others say he is a hero. Some tell the tale that he took down a man with the speed of light that was ostensibly invincible.
It all started with a vicious convict being transported from one prison to another with a few other passengers. The ship that was transporting was hit by an asteroid belt and hit on a nearby planet. Not many of the passengers made it through the crash landing and the convict was freed from his prison. The convict ran, but a passenger who was also a cop went after him to get him. Fights were made when they found him. The convict met a few of the passengers and he predominantly liked the ship pilot Fry and a seventeen year old kid named Jackie, but was called Jack for short.
The planet the landed on wasn't a very good one. It was dead and dry and had no food or water in site on the desolated planet. They soon found out that the planet also had a worse side. When the sun went down it stayed night for a few years and creatures came out that killed anything in site. The convict being the only one to see in the dark had to save their lives. They went against the creatures of the planet to save their lives. When they were searching the planet for any source of life they came across an abandoned ship and soon found out it was from previous people that had landed there but never left. They had been dead for years. When the sun went down twenty two years before the creatures killed them.
Few of the people died, leaving only the ship pilot, two passengers and the convict. The convict and the others had begun to know each other especially Fry and Jack. The convict had trapped the three other survivors in a small cranny in the side of a cliff, but Fry had some how became free and went for the convict and when she found them she convinced him to help save the other two. He did and he returned with Fry to where he had trapped them. Fry led the two other survivors to the ship they had found earlier, but the convict fell behind. She left the two and went to find him. When she had she saw that he was hurt and bleeding. She went to help him up, but she was caught by the creature and was flung away.
The convict who had began to grow feelings for her was hurt that the creatures had killed her and he returned to the spare ship, but before he and the others took off he turned on the tanks full blast to where they blew fire out of the open area's of where gas could escape. The flames killed the creatures that were surrounding the ship and then he took off.
The convict, Jack and the other passenger named Imam, who was a worshipper of the lord, reached another planet they were separated. Jack was lost with Imam and the convicted was lost in a different direction. The convict was soon found by Imam a few years later, because of an on growing war. imam explained about Necromancers, and how Jack was taken to a high facility prison. Imam helped the convict to escape, but was killed in the process. The convict was captured by people who were out for the reward on his head. They took him to a prison and he found his friend Jack, but she was now called Kira. She had changed from a semi-innocent kid to a fighter.
Kira helped him escape, but then they were ambushed by Necromancers and Kira was captured and the convict mistaken for dead. Kira was converted to the Necromancers ways. The convict returned and had a face off with the leader of the Necromancies. The convict was on the ground almost to be killed by the leader when Kira showed up and saved his life, but the leader thrashed back at her making her fly across the rooms on spikes. The spikes ripped into her body, nearly killing her. She fell off and fell to the ground. The convict wanted revenge for his friend's death and so he killed the leader. He walked slowly over to Kira and lifted her gently. She said good-bye and then she passed on.
The convict deeply wounded by the loss, sat back in throne of the dead leader and started to softly cry, but then he noticed that the Necromancers were bowing to him, making him the new leader. He took the job, and had doctors freeze Kira's body and had scientists work on a way to bring her back. After a year he became anger and felt alone so he ran. Not wanting to leave Kira he had her shipped privately to a place where he was running to and that's where everything starts over again.
The convict known as Riddick was now hiding in the mountains. Only one person knew where he was going. He only entrusted one person with this detail and that was his best warrior. Riddick lay hidden between rocks and in the shadows of them. He waited for the men to pass him, and then he moved on away from the search party. It took two days to get to his destination, but he finally made it.
Riddick knocked on the door and a young girl opened it. It was the daughter of Imam; Riddick's old friend that gave his life to save him. The young girl smiled and allowed him to come in. The girl fetched her mother and returned a minute later. The mother knowing he would be leaving soon and was only there to retrieve the news of where she had allowed Kira's body to be taken.
"She was taken to Samaria. I will allow you to take my second best fighter with you, in order to guide you to your friend. It will take about three days to get there, but if you listen to your guide you will make it there in no time." The woman looked at her daughter and the young girl went to fetch the fighter. About five minutes past and then a woman walked into the room.
She was tall but a little shorter than Riddick, She was muscular with long blonde hair that reached her waist, but it was tied into a ponytail to keep it from getting in the way. She had striking blue eyes and a firm strong face. Riddick received an eerie feeling like he had met her before but could make no connections to how he may have met her. He didn't say anything except thanked the woman and allowed the other woman to lead him to the back of the house and out a hidden passage way. Riddick left his friend's wife and child behind and into the tunnel with the oddly familiar stranger. They had walked about a good four miles before Riddick was getting annoyed by the woman's silence and also not even knowing her name.
"What is it I can call you by?" he asked her. She gave him a side glance and then looked forward again.
"My name is Xian, Imam and his wife had found me about two years ago and gave me a home and in return I gave them my protection if need be. I was trained well by the other fighters and I soon became the second guard to the family." Riddick was interested in the part of Imam finding her a few years earlier. He was wondering where she had come from and why she was lost in the first place.
"What do you mean by Imam and his wife found you two years ago?" Xian looked at him and then looked straight ahead. Riddick took notice of her clothes and he studied her. She was wearing black army boots with buckles on the sides and her pants were nicely fit around her legs. Her shirt was tight, black and had spaghetti straps. Her shirt went about inch higher than her bellybutton. He lifted his goggles and stared at the marks on her back. She had a scar on each side of her lower back; like two sharp claws got a hold of her. Then he noticed multiple scars on her arms and the back part of her neck.
"Where did you get the two scars on your back?" She looked at him once again and then stopped.
"Why are you so curious to know stuff about me? I don't know anything before the years that I've stayed with Imam's family. I was found on a desolated planet that was scattered with bones and sticky blue liquid. A salvage ship had picked me up, but when they tried to sell me to some slave traders I escaped and I was found wondering in the desert by Imam. He was nice and caring to me and he brought me back to health. I just wish I was there to save his life. He treated me like an old friend, and when he first saw me he gave me the same look you gave me." She stopped there and turned and continued to walk on. Riddick followed and then he decided to ask the question that was beginning to bug him.
"Do you remember the name Caroline?" she shook her head and he continued. "What about Fry?" Shock was pasted on her face as if she remembered something and it confirmed his theory of how he knew her. The woman before him was indeed the same woman he had started to fall in love with on the planet he thought had killed her.
"That-that name it-it seems so familiar. Like something I once heard." she was looking down on the ground with confusion written all over her face. Riddick looked painfully at her, his heart began to ache from longing to see her again and when he finally began to except that she was killed by the creatures of the night on the deadly planet; she reappears again like a ghost from a forgotten memory.
"Your name is Caroline or otherwise you were called Fry. You were a ship pilot that was bringing passengers and me to another planet. You, Imam, Jack and I were the last few to survive until I was trapped my creatures that killed every living thing. You took Jack and Imam to safety and went to save me, but you were attacked and taken away by the creatures and I and the others thought we had lost you forever. How you survived is a complete mystery." Riddick was shocked at the very least of saying such a small speech. Xian fell to the ground with her hands over her ears crying. Riddick knelt down next to her and held her. She clung to his arm for comfort and she felt pain rip through her heart. She remembered everything again. She was still crying softly five minutes later; while Riddick still held onto her.
"I remember everything now. I remember Jack, Imam, Johns, Zinc and the other passengers. I remember horror of the planet and the creatures and how they ate Paris." She began to cry again and Riddick comforted her some more. He was leaning up against the rock wall of the tunnel with Xian in his arms. "Who's all left from us? I know Imam was killed, but what about Jack?"
"Jack now called Kira was killed in battle. She saved my life, but then the man that she attacked turned around on her and flung her into a nearby wall with spikes and you can figure out the rest." Xian nodded her head and she stood up, leaving the comfort of his hold. He looked up at her and saw that her expression had changed. She was carrying a fighter's expression of anger and pain.
"I wish to be called Fry again and not Xian." Fry's expression softened and she hugged Riddick who was now standing. He hugged her back and slowly inhaled the scent of her hair. She still smelled the same from the last time he took in her scent. He released her and they continued onto their destination.
"So what are you trying to do with Jack, I mean Kira?"
"I'm having doctors and scientist trying to figure out a way to bring her back. She and I became really close."
"How close and what sort of closeness?" Fry smirked at him and he knew she would not care about what sort of relationship the two shared.
"Almost as close as a wife and husband."
"So you're saying you've done stuff with her?" for the first time in Riddick's life, he blushed and so he nodded.
"You have changed. And a lot if I dare say so." Riddick nodded and they continued.
"It has been nearly five years since we escaped from the planet. And just last year Jack was killed. She and I were separated in our third year of being free with Imam when I we I was captured again and we were separated. When I escaped from the prison, Imam found me and told me that Jack went out to search for me and ended up killing many people which put her in a prison as well and then a year later I ran into her again when I was brought to the same prison as her. She and I and a few others escaped, of course, but then we became ambushed and I lost Jack again, later I found. She had tricked them into thinking she had become a Necromancer. She then betrayed them to save my life." Fry was quiet as she took everything in. She finally knew the rest of the story but to her it felt like a dream. She knew she lost Riddick, but he was important to her and she wanted what was best for him. Sure she loved him and didn't want to let him go, but she knew that he loved Jack. Though everything in the end would turn out ok, because she and Jack had become close on the planet that took her away from the two. She has actually considered Jack like a younger sister. Someone she could protect and think of as a real family member.
"Alright lets get moving so we can bring Jack back." She smiled and she and Riddick moved forward. It made Riddick happy to see that Fry didn't mind what was going on between him and Kira.
