Author's note: Thanks for the reviews, luved 'em! Where do you guys want this to go, running out of ideas…HELP! Drop me some ideas please!! Thanks

I never went home that night, instead walked the streets. Restless, defeated. Hopeless were all things I was feeling. But apart of me couldn't help thinking about how the man really made me fell. It was forbidden how I felt about him, but that just made it that much sweeter.

Hours passed before I finally was calm enough to sit down and catch the sunset. No it didn't take my breath away or any of that shit, though it was nice to look at. My mind couldn't help but yell ' What the hell are you going to do now?' All my life I prepared for being with Riddick, only did I realize now how foolish the whole thing was. How could I be that stupid? He was a killer for Christ's sake yet all I wanted was to be like hi,. To try and capture that inner strength, that inner animal. You could call it a craving how much I wanted to be with him. Took all this time to find him and he wants nothing to do with me. Typical, I'll just add his name to the list.

Sitting and moping about wouldn't get me anywhere and feeling sorry for myself wouldn't either. The first thing that came to mind was run, but I couldn't leave Marie. Can't tell you how many times she has saved my pathetic ass for reasonsI have yet to learn. She gave me a life making many sacrifices in the process to get me where I am. There is one…

"Beautiful isn't it? So many colors." Marie's voice came out of no where.

"What? How'd you find me?"

"I know you Jackie, especially that hard working mind of yours. How'd it go?"

"He hates me." I huffed letting my hair fall in my face.

"I don't think so, besides its his loss."

"I know it's just I missed him so much, I wanted to impress him, but I got my answer." I stood up feeling the tears start to fall.

"Jackie wait!" She called out, "What was the answer?" She stayed on the bench watching me with squinted eyes.

"I would of just slowed him down." Flowed out of my mouth like it was no big thing, oh but it was.

Walking away was the easiest thing to do so I did. I didn't care that we had a job to do or that we needed the money. We could always get another but still I was being selfish, though at the time I didn't care. The jobs were quite interesting though. We got to use all our little gadgets we had so it never got messy. Marie handled the clients while I did most of the computer work. We did shit like breaking and entering, revenge skits, hacking, stealing, whatever but one thing that we didn't was kill. If the price was right we did it and were pretty damn good at it too. But what did it matter, did anything anymore?

Marie's POV:

I felt for her as her long strides carried her away from any help or support I had to offer. Could I fix it? No Could I be there for her? Damn right. It took me a little over a year to get the name of the mysterious man who gave her the shiv. Have to tell you I was a little surprised how Jack could know such a man. Sure I've heard the stories, hell who hasn't. When she talked about him there was such passion hidden behind her big jungle green eyes. You'd have to be blind not to see it and if you were all you would have to do is listen. It was safe to say the Richard B. Riddick was Jack's Savior.

After we finally made it off that horrible planet way back when she really blossomed. Not only with her training but with her self confidence and personality. Head strong and vicious were the best to describe young Jack. She turned into a vibrant young woman, yet still she held that child ness close. I cursed Riddick where ever he was for making her doubt herself and thrown into an emotional roller coaster. What hurt the worst was the thought that I might be going solo real soon. Real soon.

No One's POV:

The wind blew ever so slightly making him able to catch her scent. He's been watching her all night walk aimlessly around not paying attention to where she was going. He could of probably been right next to her and she would have never noticed. Following her wasn't by choice rather instinct, curiosity.

Riddick crept through the alleys making sure he never lost sight of her. She sure didn't look like the little bald headed kid he'd let behind but her scent was still the same, only thing that gave her away. Her face plagued his mind when he told her she would have just slowed him down. Hurting her wasn't his goal but if it was going to keep her safe then he was in. Still it ignited something in him that he hadn't felt in a while, something he couldn't quite put his finger on. A lot of questions came to mind which was prefect timing. Jack led him home and without a second thought he followed her in, wanting the answers.
