Jack went the direction the scream came from; she followed as far as she could before she got tired. She took a seat on a small mound of ice, letting her stick fall to her side; sitting on her knees, and looked out into the dark abyss she saw. She let her pack slide of her back and pulled it in front of her; she pulled out her knives from Riddick and banged them together. The sound traveled in front of her showing her, the icy road ahead. She heard it again, the pain staking cry, suddenly she felt as if the breath had been taken from her lungs, as a spear was being shoved through her stomach; she too screamed out in pain, as tears fell one after the other down her cheeks hitting the frozen ground. She pulled up her coat and shirt, but saw no cut. She stood up despite the pain and returned the knives to there home in her pack and picked up her stick and started walking again. Swinging her stick side to side to make sure nothing was in front of her to trip her she stumbled forward for Riddick.
"I won't let this stop me." She said sliding down a steep ice wall. "I will use my gift to find him." She pushed on, farther and farther. She knew she had a long walk ahead of her when she heard the scream. It was faint, and she could hear well, so she knew she had a long journey ahead. Step after step foot after food she went in the blizzarding snow to find the poor soul she heard screaming in pain, and to keep her mind of the pain of her own. She couldn't go on any longer she stopped and fell to her face in the cold snow.
She woke up covered in snow, she was surprised she didn't' freeze during the night being covered with snow she was still dry. She sat up and looked around at the darkness; she started singing to herself to make noise so she could see. Nothing but ice for miles that was all she could she, snow and ice. She knew she couldn't die here alone and nowhere, she had to keep going, she got up and started slowly walking in the direction she heard the second scream came from. She walked for hours on end, when she was ready to give up from being frozen, hungry and thirsty she heard growls and snarls in the distance so she ran to see what it was.
Up in a clearing of just ice she saw three large creatures surrounding a smaller similar looking creature holding something. The smaller creature lay on the ground bleeding…dieing. She could barley see what was going on so she pulled out her knives and banged them together to see better. She saw the three larger creatures closing in on the smaller weaker one ready to pounce; she noticed what or more of the like of who the smaller creature was. She gave a yell cry and slide down the ravine of ice and got ready to fight the three farley large creatures.
The first one came at her with claws out full blast roaring and screaming, she jumped over it slicing its head off. The second came full force and fell on its but sliding towards her ready to grab her and maul her to death, she crouched down and had the blades out stretched and ready, the two blades cut through the creature like butter. The third watched and learned her moves, it stalked towards her as the two circled each other.
Go! Jack thought as she ran as fast and hard as she could towards the drooling creature as it ran toward her, they collided in a rumble of rolling and slicing of each other. She finally got fed up and pushed away from the beast, throwing it at the wall with her feet she swung her blades around a bit and threw them at the beast, aiming for the head, and stomach. The blades stuck out of the ice as blood hit the white snow staining it red. She ran over to the dead beast pulling her blades out of the ice.
"How do you like that fucker?!?!?!?!?!?!" She wiped the blood off on her pants and placed the blades in her pack, turning around she ran to the smaller creature bleeding on the ground, she fell to her knees sliding the rest of the way to it's side. She laid her hands on it and pulled it to face her.
There laid Riddick wearing the skin of one of the kind she just killed, he lay bleeding to death. She could see, and hear his hearts faint beats. She laid her head on his chest and listened to his heart as it pumped the blood right out of his body.
"Please don't die on me, please." She begged as tears strayed from her eyes. She got up enough strength, she slung his right arm over her left shoulder and pulled him up; letting him use her as support.
"C'mon, I know you can do it, you can't die on me." She followed the bloody footprints in the snow covering them up as she went along. They finally came to his cave and she pulled him inside laying him on his bed. She pulled off her pack and dropped it on the floor, then grabbing his blood soaked shirt she ripped it open to find a cut along his side where she had, had that pain on the ship, and a he and a stab wound in the middle of his stomach, where she had, the feeling the breath had been taken from her lungs and like someone shoved a spear through her. She came back to that moment and with gentile care pulled off his goggles then dug through her bag to find her med kit. She pulled out a rather large needle and needle wire, then digging around a bit she pulled out a bottle of Rum.
Twisting off the top to the Rum she poured it over his wounds and threaded the needle with the wire. She pulled the stab wound together and stuck the needle in through one side of the skin and pulled it out through the other side, repeating this till both wound were sowed together. She pulled the last stitch through the skin and tied the wire so it would stay put and poured more Rum over them to keep them from infection. She pulled out of her pack a rag and tore it apart and wrapped it around his body to cover the stitched wounds. He took the bottle from her and finished the last few drops.
"I said I'd find you Riddick." She said with pride. "Sleep. Then when you wake up you can tell me why those three creatures where about to eat you." Riddick just closed his eyes and fell asleep. She pulled off her glasses and set them next to her pack and his goggles, then leant against the bed falling asleep.
