Jack was shaking. He was scared and he had every right to be. We were all going to die. It was only a matter of time, unless these… people… can fix this broken up piece of crap they call a ship.

"Are you scared?" I looked to Jack,

"No, I've given up being afraid." Riddick was in the room, I could feel him. "I've given up letting others protect me or help me. I look out for myself. No help. No rules. Just me and my rules." Jack just gave me a weak smile and left.

"Just like you, huh Riddick? Just you and your rules. Nothing else matters. No one else matters." He snapped, he grabbed my arm and pushed me up against the wall. He slid his goggles up so I could see his eyes,

"So what happens when the lights go out?...You can't see in the dark…and you're all alone… what then?" I hadn't thought about this. What was I going to do? Well I know what I wasn't going to do…

"Well I'm not gonna come to you for help." He got closer so our lips were just barely touching,

"You will…" He kissed me again. I couldn't move. I was pinned. It was a rough yet sweet kiss. Almost like he was trying to say sorry. But I'd never hear those words come out of his mouth. He left. Just like him. Kiss and leave. He irritated me, yet I love the man. God was seriously screwing with me.

Time was of the essence, and the sun was beginning to set. We decided to go back to the ship and get the power converters. The others crawled into the sand cat and Paris was freaking out cuz Riddick wasn't there.

"Well you know he probably wouldn't wait for us. He'll probably just kill us." Just then Riddick jumped down beside him, "Aw, there you are. Thought we lost you." He gave him a look then we were off.

The sun was setting. We were running out of time. We weren't gonna make it. At least not before it got dark. We got to the ship and began to pull converters out while Paris went to go salvage his goods. I was pulling them as fast as I could. Just as we pulled the last one out the sun was just going away,

"Beautiful…" I could hear Riddick and I knew he was seeing something. We all ran for the opening that Paris was in. All of us made it but Shazza and Riddick. They stayed down till she jumped up and ran. The creatures came flying through and cut her in half carrying the screaming half off. Riddick bolted for the door as Jack screamed for Shazza,

"SHAZZA!!!!! NO!!!!!" He went to run after her and a creature swooped down and I pushed him back. The creature took a chunk out of my arm,

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Riddick killed the thing and pulled me into the container. The door shut and it was dark.

"Now it's hell."
