*Alice's aimlessly pacing around her room. She's not sure what she needs to do beside find somebody to help her learn to control... whatever it is. The urge to just leave isn't quite as bad as it was since she's figured out that her Keeper most likely hasn't found her here yet but the two men that look and sound just like him still make her nervous enough to want to run. And that's not even mentioning the whole was that her Rain or... another problem. She's made it halfway around the room for the fifth time when she hears a knock on the door. She narrows her eyes and goes to the door. She peeks out the window next to it and blinks. Speak of the devil... She opens the door and cocks her brow.*

Rain... How'd you find me here?

That actually made her laugh to be honest with you. A smile crept up upon her lips, though she wasn't in anything resembling a happy mood.

"Yeah, tell me." Rain muttered in sarcasm at the multiple universe comment.

Quirking an eyebrow.

"Wouldn't perhaps be...Dick? Would it?" a smirk.

"That's what she called him...though if you have the cat...then who the fuck was that?" that's when the nice-ness dropped dramatically.

"Oh yeah, the cat says his name is Dick... but we were comparing man-trouble notes the other day and there's a guy she calls Dick, too. He's like her self-appointed protector or something... her Keeper?" Jack grins and shrugs. "But I'm not sure, she might be talking about Riddick -- a Riddick, anyway. There are at least two of him wandering around here, and his first name is Richard. That's what I want to ask her about... I heard her telling someone about a planet with three suns the other night, and that's where I met him."

Jack realizes she's kind of babbling. Equilibrium, kid, equilibrium. You can be such a spaz; this lady isn't interested in your life story.

"Riddick huh?... two.. jesus, I can only take one." Rain muttered. Now also realizing the woman was babbling. But who cares? She's my key.

"What is this protector bull shit? She is more than capable of handling her own shit... she's superbitch for Christ sake."

"I'm not just her friend... I knew her long before any of you guys, I'm where she's from. Our universe...or what was left of it."

Jack finds herself grinning again. "I dunno... even superbitches can benefit from having a Furyan Warrior on their side. I know I did last night..."

Guilt flashes through her eyes.

"Well, assuming that's what her Riddick is. So you two are from the same universe?"

Another haunted look flashes through Jack's eyes, as she remembers one Riddick's reaction to finding out that she wasn't, after all, from his universe... wasn't his Jack. Massive, major ouch.

"You want Riddick...and I want Alice...what are the odds?" she looked to the asphalt in mere thought, just kicking a rock out of her way.

"There's a slight problem there.."

"But there's always a loop hole, ideas?" oh the possibilities.

[jack_b_badd]

Jack blinks. "Actually, I already have one back in my room. What, there's one in her room right now too? Damn, does this place get freaky or what? I wonder if it's the same one who likes to yell at me."

A certain emptiness seemed to linger in her soul. "Have a good night." I couldn't give a shit about anyone...back to square one. Shoving her hands back into the baggy jean pockets, she began to start back the way she came, secretly, tears streaming down her cheeks.

No one would ever see Rain Ocampo cry. No one.

Jack blinks and stares after the woman.

"Um... okay... you too..."

She decides she'd better go see Alice and ask her question before she causes any more trouble.
