Status: complete

His lips still burned. He felt something very strongly akin to self hatred and disgust. He had kissed the Elf. He had not meant to. It just happened. He had not been thinking. After Riddick had ran or more like crawled, he found himself in the hills not too far from the beach. He had no strength to go back to his room. he honestly felt weaker than he had before. Legolas.. The Elf had almost touched him which brought more pain than he had felt before. And the kiss. It had caused his heart to almost lurch and in the moment he saw Vaako, not the blond Elf that he could barely stand.

He slept once more. But sometime within the very early hours he found himself back in his room and he didn't bother to shower. He just went to his bed and fell asleep. Again a man who barely needed sleep was craving it now. The pain got less as he was just near Vaako but another type of pain wanted to seep in. When he next awoke, Riddick sat up with a start. His eyes went straight to Vaako's bed and he was gone. The pain hit him almost immediately once more. Somehow almost on autopilot, Riddick crawled from the bed to the shower. He managed to shower, change and get dressed.

In the mirror, Riddick looked at his chest. Vaako's hand... the glow. It was glowing bright and angrily almost against his tanned skin. It was like it beckoning to the match of that print. But there was still so much mystery as to why it was like Vaako had made the print when he had not. Covering his chest with hishsirt, Riddick knew he was going ot look for the Necro he had no choice. And without really knowing how, he knew where Vaako was.

So that is why less than 10 minutes later, Riddick finds himself standing in the corner of the library, in his direct vision even through his goggles he could see Vaako. He was so intense, curled up in a large chair. The only sign of armor was his chest plate. He didn't have his weapons either which had Riddick frowning. Just seeing him had caused the pain to simmer. He didn't move, didn't let the other man know he was there. He had a feeling he would know regardless.

Vaako gasped and stepped backward. The shock on his face, again, wasn't overly stated. But somehow he suspected that, while most would never have noticed, Riddick would. He shook his head.

"No... the Purifier... he was..." He shook his head once more, more frantically. "No! He was tricking me, he was trying to steal my position with the Lord Marshal, he didn't..."

He lowered his head and looked at the floor, his hand falling away from Riddick's chest as the bald man moved away. Such a mistake, but how could he have trusted the other man? He'd been a Necromonger. If only he'd known, perhaps it would have changed things. Then again, perhaps not. Obedience without question, Loyalty until Underverse come...

"If that book is true... well, what does it mean that my hand... that I should be the one who matches..."

He gasped and his eyes widened as he looked at the book, and then to the Furyan. And though he could do what Riddick was doing, pretend that none of this was real, he couldn't. So, he did the next best thing. He turned and ran. In seconds, he was out the door of the library. But he couldn't outrun his thoughts.
