Riddick's words rang in Sidra's ears as he told her that her best chance of survival was to stay close to him and listen to his commands. A part of her wanted to protest, but another part, a larger part, just nodded wanting to obey. Somehow deep down she knew the Furyan was right. There was an air about him that beckoned she follow. And she noticed it wasn't felt just by the likes of her. Vaako felt it. It was why the half-dead couldn't let him plummet to an uncertain fate with those worms back on Furya. And it didn't stop there. The other Necromongers. They sensed it as well, it was why none had dared challenge Riddick.
Yes, Sidra would stay close to the silver-eyed man. No matter how much he frightened her at times, she would stay by his side. After all, she supposed he couldn't help what he was or how he came off. Could he? She didn't know. She knew nothing of his past or his plans, other than that he came from that dead world they now left below, that his eyes weren't originally shined and that he had no intentions of converting to the Necromonger way. She wondered what other things she'd learn about the man the longer she stayed in his presence.
Suddenly Sidra felt a rush of wind brush against her face, her curls blowing against a tiny breeze. Turning to see the source of the wind, she caught sight of a female figure, one Riddick addressed as Aereon. She mentioned another. Kyra? Immediately, she quirked a brow as she noticed Riddick become tense, almost angry, at the mention of the name. Just who was she? And why was she being compared to this girl?
Meanwhile on top of the balcony look down, Dame Vaako arched a brow as she watched both Riddick and her husband return from their expedition and walk into the Necropolis. She couldn't help but notice the girl attached to Riddick's hip, a lithe young thing who seemed like a stray cat who only answered to one. Interesting that the one would be the Furyan. "Of course it would be," she whispered to herself as she watched from above, slowly walking toward the staircase so she could descend them and meet her husband down below.
Just as Dame Vaako was about to take her first step, she stopped mid-step. Riddick bellowed orders that made her pause and tilt her head. Oh this was something she needed to observe in full. Her lips twisted as she smiled maliciously, watching the Furyan prove once more just who the alpha was amongst them all—interesting that it was not a Necromonger. Licking her lips, her desire for power growing, she felt a pull drawing her toward the steely-eyed man below. She glanced briefly at her husband and nodded curtly, but her eyes shifted back to Riddick and the lust in her non-reflective eyes returned.
But that girl... she was clinging to Riddick like a pet. Like that Kyra had before her untimely death. Dame Vaako scoffed silently. That Kyra. Her conversion was a fine moment for the Necromongers even if it had been a stroke of luck on their part. And her death, that had been the sweetest part of all. Yes, the Furyan still became Lord Marshall instead of Vaako, but her death caused a weakness to be exploited. And now. Now she was replaced. It was a conspiracy to say the least! Something would have to be done about it. It would just be a matter of what... and when.
Sidra bit down on her lip when the Necromongers nodded at Riddick's orders to fully destroy the little that was left of Furya. She glanced over at him and then about the place at everyone milling about. Descending a staircase, she caught sight of an exotic-looking woman and immediately felt her blood turn icy cold. Her instincts told her that something was off about her and she moved closer to Riddick, almost touching him.
"Just like a Furyan to make a grand entrance," Dame Vaako spoke, her tone regal and haughty, her eyes fixed on Sidra as she approached. She walked over to her husband, her hand reaching out to touch him, caress his face with affection though her actions were almost mechanical despite how erotic she made them appear. "And this," she then said, her attention fully on Sidra now. "A new pet? Living and non-converted?" She stalked around both Riddick and Sidra, making a tight circle as she walked around them both. "How long do you expect that to last?" she asked. "A day, a week?" She smiled a little and moved toward her husband again, her hands moving about his neck as she pressed herself against him, her eyes not once even looking in his direction however. "Your thoughts betray you, Riddick," she said with a wicked smile, her eyes cold as they reflected nothing.
Sidra just stood there, her eyebrows furrowed, her body beginning to tremble. She looked up at Riddick. "Riddick?" she asked, though her question was really her way of letting him know she wanted to leave, to get away from this woman who terrified her to her very core.
