Riddick's POV
I slowly open my eyes, the drugs from Cryosleep polling the heavy blanket all the way from covering my mind. As the blanket shifts, I can feel the animal fully stretch in my mind. I reach over and unhook my arm from the needles, rubbing the exit wound a little. After a little stretch, I grab a tablet from its charging station.
With quick movements, I flip through screens trying to find a certain map. Finally finding the one I wanted, I open it and reconnect the tablet to the control panel.
"Analyzing..." A female voice says as I sit in the captains chair. I rub my eyes before pulling my goggles down. The feeling of hair makes me pause before I turn to look at my reflection.
A few inches cover the top of my head and a bead has started to really take over my face. 'How did I just feel this? I must have been really asleep.' I think before the computer speaks again.
"Planet Avaya. Also known as Earth 25. Three moons. Low population due to high flooding that leaves only islands with tall trees safe for being habitable. Low tide on the sun side. for the next half hour. Last transmission of pod 457 made on before entering the atmosphere." The voice rattles off as I rap into the seat.
"Don't worry. I'm coming." I growl, entering the atmosphere as the ship starts to shake.
Riley's POV
Oops! This image does not follow our content guidelines. To continue publishing, please remove it or upload a different image.
After making Vanessa and me breakfast and feeding Jack, we all are dressed and heading down to the village that lives in the middle of the island.
Jack is strapped to my chest and has already fallen back asleep as Vanessa is strapped to my back. When we get to the village I will let her down, but making it down this trunk of a tree where our treehouse is located is a little to much for her.
Making sure I have my baskets full of herbs and wares, I head down the slope, humming on the way down as Vanessa puts braids in my hair.
As we enter the village gates, I release Vanessa from her little prison and she grabs a hold of my skirt. We make our rounds around the market, bartering, selling and buying what we need for a few weeks. Rain season is coming soon and we will be stuck in the house for a month or two. As will everyone else. As we pass a food stall, I feel a tugging on my skirts. I look down to see Vanessa pointing at a stall ahead of us covered in weapons.
Suddenly she starts pulling us toward it, eyes not even blinking. She points again, and thats when I see them. Two curved blades that looked like the kind Riddick would always carry on him. She used to be so fascinated when she watched him spin them in his hands.
