Riddick Page #3

Boom.

Were you just perving out on me somehow?

May all your dreams come true, baby.

You've got two minutes.

I want you out on f***ing watch.

Luna!

Don't watch me. Watch my back.

That's what you're here for.

Take two steps forward. Two.

Remember, he could be anywhere.

This is Johns

to any-goddamn-body at the station.

I want you to keep an eye on that locker.

Keep an eye on the node.

Riddick may have made an end run.

My ETA is seven minutes.

But watch your back.

All right, you little b*tch.

Your two minutes are up.

You gonna do what I tell you to do?

Rumor is Riddick might

be in the vicinity.

Thought I should just

check on the locker.

Get outside, get on your optics,

and get after this f***er!

You're not gonna find him here.

Actually, Dahl,

I think we have something in common.

I don't f*** guys either.

You need to see this.

He wrote that?

He took out our deep

space communications. All of it.

And whose blood is that? There... Here...

Over there...

I had to kick his ass again. Sorry.

Not really.

F*** it.

Let's take a look at this.

Stop.

That key leave your neck?

Never.

Well, the only reason

to write "fair trade"

is if he got into that locker

and he took something out.

Something that we need,

like a power node,

which he could then swap

for something he needs.

All that? Wow.

Highly unlikely.

Let me join the f***ing dots

for you, Santana.

Here's what I'm saying.

If he did get in there somehow,

he was in a position to

relock it and change the code.

Could be entering the

wrong sh*t, Santana.

So,

do you think

sometime during the last few hours

he got this off my neck

without me noticing,

did whatever he did,

put the f***ing key back

on my f***ing neck

without me f***ing noticing?

Is that what you're saying?

Where did you get that theory from?

A unicorn's ass?

There's a reason he is who he is.

He's a convict. Not some Zulu warlock.

You know what you know.

This is crazy.

This is f***ing crazy.

The first three clicks were good.

It did not go off.

You can get three clicks

in Russian roulette.

Doesn't mean you get four, motherf***er.

You know what, Santana?

For once I actually agree with you.

I think you're good.

Shut up.

You. Do you think we're good?

Yeah.

I think you're good, cuz.

You're f***ing good. Just butch up.

Sounds like your department, lesbo.

I'm not opening that thing.

Oh, yes, you f***ing are!

I'm so f***ing not!

Hey, hey, hey! Use your f***ing brains!

We are not gonna do

Riddick's work for him!

Put your weapons down.

And have a look at that.

He was here.

Right f***ing there.

Santana, put your f***ing sword away.

Don't f***ing open it, then.

Well, the problem with that, Santana,

we never open that locker,

and we never leave.

The strength of my life

of Whom shall I be afraid.

Four.

Five.

And...

Oops.

Wish I'd have thought of that.

Six!

Six.

Huh.

Six.

You are a sh*t storm trooper, Santana.

I'll give you that.

You beat the devil this time.

Didn't actually

think he was gonna do it.

This is a sign.

Ah, sweet.

I believe this is a sign.

It may be that the good Lord

wants us to take these nodes

and flee this planet

just as soon as we can.

That's my good luck charm.

Wrong business, kid.

You know, I was kind of

hoping the bomb would go off.

So we sealed up his cave with some

phosphor frags here, so he can't go back.

And just like an animal,

he's gonna head to known ground.

But we're gonna find

he's got three or four lairs out there.

So we'll radius out

from this point, here.

Now radio comms... I saw three

repeaters listed in inventory.

Find them. Set them up

at regular intervals.

I never want to be

out of touch like that again.

Are you scared of me?

Yeah.

Are they scared of me?

Yes, they're scared of you.

Maybe you're all scared

of the wrong thing.

Lockspur, I want you to

lock down those hogs, all right?

I don't want this guy

any more mobile than he already is.

Now, Dahl, I spotted a

nice little nest for you.

Right here and in these low hills.

Moss?

I just saw him.

Say again?

I just saw him.

Dahl, I want you to sit on this ship!

Diaz, make sure your ship is locked down!

The rest of you get on

the f***ing perimeter

and keep your eyes on each other!

Santana! He got the f***ing nodes!

I know. It's coming.

So then we just combine nodes.

Pull one from that ship,

put it in this ship, you know?

Amps is amps, right?

It's not about amps. It's about

what each ship is rated to handle.

You miss by even a few milli-joules,

you fry every chip you've got.

Okay, so figure out

the difference, and just do it.

Jailbreak the f***ing thing.

I could give you a crash course

on thermodynamic equilibrium

and energy exchange right now,

or maybe you just want to

take my goddamn word for it...

I get it. I get it.

The ships are incompatible. We're not

gonna fly without the nodes back.

Why do I feel like

we just cut off our own nuts here?

Probably because we did.

How about I take one of those jet hogs,

two days' worth of food

and go out and hunt this

f***er down myself?

Bad idea, Diaz. One-on-one with Riddick?

I might be able to get

the emergency beacon working again.

That's like an ambulance

calling for an ambulance, isn't it?

It's back-up for the f***ing back-up.

We can't.

I thought he was

the one stranded here.

Yeah, well,

looks like you thought wrong.

Long wait for back-up.

In case you were thinking about

fixing the beacon and calling for help.

Falco's radio.

Riddick, I don't give a

f*** about the back-up.

Because I've still got all kinds of gear

that can ruin your day in a hurry.

So you go find another f***ing cave.

You keep runnin', you keep hidin'.

Doesn't matter me none.

Because in the end, I will find you!

Look south.

I don't believe it.

The balls on this f***ing guy.

Dahl, keep an eye on things here.

What should I do?

Stay low.

Come on. Come on.

Both of you drop.

So what's the bounty at?

I don't know. I don't care.

It's not why I'm here.

I bet the big jamoke knows.

Yeah. I know exactly what it is.

What I do know is that it's double

if you're brought back dead.

That's new.

Will it be enough to

pay for your funerals?

What I'm interested in

is a little backwater place

with a system code M-344/G.

I want to know what

happened there 10 years ago.

The father.

Big Daddy Johns.

Yeah, that's right.

And you traveled all

this way just to see me.

I'm flattered.

It's kind of strange not knowing

what to put down in the family bible.

It's kind of strange three guys have

to die just so that you can hear...

No, no, no.

You don't get to put that sh*t on me.

Those kills are on you.

I have a feeling that's not the

only thing on me right now.

Okay, got barium shells,

stab-shock, explosive tip.

What do you want, barium or stab-shock?

Horse tranq.

Okay.

I hate to interrupt this

discussion about ancient history,

but maybe I should step in right here
