Hello my wonderful fans! I am back in action! Contrary to popular belief, I am NOT dead! Joy! I know lots of people will probably kill me for not updating my other stories, but oh well. . I will soon be getting a computer of my very own! JOY! So I will then immerse myself in my writing. So expect updates on almost all my stories by January at the latest.
This is a new story that just came to me in the middle of the night. I have no plan for it's future, I'm just kind of making it up as I go along. But I hope you all like it.
I found her on some God forsaken planet where it never stoops raining. Only one sun, but no one ever sees it through the storm clouds. Normal temperatures, nothing tropical. Just a few imported plants and lots of water. Myself, I don't mind a little rain every now and then. But this place is practically underwater from it all. I walked through the city where I had been told she went. Damn computer hacker. Probably just throwing me a red herring, so I wouldn't kill him when he can't find anything on her. Didn't like him much. Too skittish. Must've been the shiv on his neck.
Imam did a shitty job of watching her. She hot into all kinds of trouble while I was gone. Got expelled from 3 schools for assaulting a teacher, thrown in a juvenile detention for beating the shit out of some guy for hitting on her, broke out somehow (they're still haven't figured out how), and then jumped planet by stowing away on someone's ship. I grin as I read through her record that I had a friend dig up, a real hacker who knows what he's doing. Initially, I didn't want her turning out like me. But, damn. I guess if she's going to anyways, I'm glad she knows how to do it the right way. I know she's here. She has to be here.
I'm not sure where to start looking. The city has a population of about 4,000. Pretty weird considering the shitty weather. Must be a lot of indoor, city people. I go to the nearest hotel and rent a room. I plan to be here a while. Finding her might take weeks. I take my key card from the desk clerk and head for my room. Unpacking consists of throwing my bag on the bed. Small room. No windows. Perfect.
I haven't seen her in 6 years, which makes her 18 now. How time fly's when your running from mercs. I'm not sure where she would be on a Saturday night in this city, so I go to a club and order a few drinks. Just to pass time. In a dark, secluded corner of the club, I watch the people around me. Most are young, 17 to 20. A lot of people are dancing. Hot, sweaty bodies all whirling in flashes of strobe lights. Reality seems forgotten by them. They don't care what people think of them, they're here to be themselves. They don't care if they aren't up to anyone's standards. And there She is.
In the very middle of the frenzy, with her now long hair flying in all directions, she moves closer. Body moving to the fast, pounding beat of heavy rock music, she lets go and gives in to her darker, wilder side. Animal side, with no restraints. My eyes follow her as she moves her body to the pounding of the music. Damn.
Six years can do a lot to a girl, but he never expected this. She used to be a gangly, bald little girl with luminous eyes. Now she was all grown up, with the curves to prove it. She was slim and looked all muscle. She now had a thick mess of auburn hair that fell around shoulders in waves. But she had the same big eyes. Enormous, haunted, long-lashed, green eyes. He could never forget those eyes. The music stopped. She pushed her hair out of her face and waited for the next song to start. As if feeling someone's eyes on her she glanced sharply into the corner. There sat Riddick, watching her. She didn't know whether to ignore him or approach, so she just stood there in shock. She saw his lips move slightly, as he mouthed her name.
"Jack…."
I hope you liked it. Review!
