(Disclaimer: I own none of the Pitch Black or the COR characters. I wouldn't mind owning Riddick though.)

Riddick felt the sting of the shiv cut through his skin and into his stomach. Blood trickled down his knees and onto the ground he fell sideways onto the cold hard ground as his life leaked all around him. His vision going blurry, then Jack sat up and he could see like he did before the shine; she was so beautiful.

"Riddick wake up please. Please wake up." Jack begged.

"I love you." Riddick said as his eyes slid closed and his last breath left him.

meanwhile

Jack sat at Riddick's side in the hospital; her head on his chest and her hand over his. She hadn't left his side for a month, since the night he was sent to the market for sardines, came home and found a guy trying to rape her. She remembered it like it was yesterday.

Memory

Riddick walked up the stairs to their bedroom trying to miss all the baby toys spread all over the stairs, he thought it kinda odd because they where in a bag at the top of the stairs. He took a left at the top of the stairs and found Jack struggling to get out from under a man with a knife. Riddick didn't think he just reacted. He pulled his shiv and tackled the guy, landing on him on the floor. He held his shiv to the mans throat.

"Who do you think you are coming in my house and touching my wife?" Riddick raged as the man pulled out a standard army knife, stabbing Riddick in the stomach. As the man let go of the knife Riddick slid the knife across the mans throat killing him. Riddick picked the man up and threw him out the open window, and washed his body hit the ground with a crack; then he pulled out the knife and stumbled to the stairs and fell down rolling down the stairs. Jack ran down after him. When she reached the bottom Riddick lay bloody and half dead.

back at the hospital

Jack started crying more. If I hadn't of begged him to take me with him this wouldn't have happened. He would still be ok. She thought squeezing his hand.

"Jack I'm sorry. I love you." She heard Riddick whisper. Then his eyes flickered open and he looked her way.

"Riddick!" Jack screamed with excitement. Her eyes dried up right away.

"Jack I'm sorry." Riddick whispered to her with sadness in his eyes.

"Why are you sorry?" Jack asked settling down.

"For killing you."

"You didn't kill me. I'm still here." Jack set a hand on his cheek as Riddick remembered what had happened a month ago. How he had saved Jack from being harmed. His guilt had been forgotten for so long when it hit it hit him hard.
