[Ominous instrumentaI music]

AEREON: They are an army unlike any other...

crusading across the stars toward a place called UnderVerse...

their promised land. A constellation of dark new worlds.

Necromongers they're called.

And if they cannot convert you, they will kill you.

Leading them, the Lord Marshal.

He alone has made a pilgrimage to the gates of the UnderVerse...

and returned a different being.

Stronger. Stranger. Half alive and half...

something else.

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

AEREON: If we are to survive, a new balance must be found.

In normal times, evil would be fought by good.

But in times like these...

well, it should be fought by another kind of evil.

[Ominous instrumentaI music]

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Panting]

Lining him up for you.

TOOMBS: Portside shot coming up.

TOOMBS: Steady. Here we go.

Steady.

Take it! Take a shot!

Shit.

-Toombs, we're running out of rope! -Shut up! I got it! Again!

Now!

[Riddick groans]

HENCHMAN: Toombs!

[GrowIs]

Riddick.

GUNNER 1 : I don't know, Toombs. Looks kind of tight.

Not where I'm sitting. This is the biggest payday ever.

So throw on a fresh pair of panties. Let's get this right.

[Riddick grunting]

HENCHMAN: Three metres cIearance portside. One and a haIf metres starboard.

We got a chokepoint coming up.

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

[Gunner 2 screaming]

HENCHMAN: What the shit was that?

Tags, you got eyes on Riddick?

Tags?

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

[Panting]

Jesus.

He just ghosted two guys, and I never even saw him.

What do you think? Maybe we ought to just--

I think you're my new gunner. Grab a Gat.

Stay on top of him this time.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Henchman screaming]

RIDDICK: You made three mistakes.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

First, you took the job.

Second, you came Iight.

A four-man crew for me? Fucking insulting.

But the worst mistake you made....

[Music intensifies]

RIDDICK: That's right. Empty gun rack.

[Toombs screams in pain]

-What's the bounty on my head? -1 miI.

[Screams in pain]

1 .5.

What sIam pays 1 .5 for a convict?

Private party.

Guy! Easy! Anonymous. That's what the sheet said.

What pIanet?

HeIion Prime.

Whoa. Where you going? Last question.

And you better get this one right, merc.

Whose ship is this?

TOOMBS: Mine? RIDDICK: Wrong answer.

[Toombs screaming]

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

[Soft instrumentaI music]

RIDDICK: [Voice-over] Knew they'd come for me. Took them five years, but I knew.

You don't expect these mercs to have any honour, any code.

But this new bounty from a holy man...

a guy whose neck I saved.

Well, lesson learned. No such word as ''friend. ''

Can only end bad when you let someone get too close.

Bad for them.

So now it's back to civilisation.

All the brightness, and everything I hate.

Just wanted to be left alone.

WOMAN PILOT: [On radio] Helion Prime is on alert condition four.

All unrecognised craft will be escorted to the ground...

for security inspections.

PILOT: [On radio] Unrecognised craft, follow me...

to Spaceport 6 for security inspections.

Do you hear me? Follow me to Spaceport 6 now!

FoIIow this.

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

[SIow instrumentaI music]

RIDDICK: Did you know aII your doors were Iocked?

Five years ago, I took two people off that planet.

RIDDICK: A kid, Jack, who everyone eIse thought was a boy...

and a hoIy man searching for New Mecca.

I toId one man where I might go.

I showed trust to one man.

Did I make a mistake, Imam?

There is no simpIe answer--

Whatever was said was meant to give us a chance.

A fighting chance.

Were it not for the threat of invasion...

I never wouId have betrayed you. I give you my word, Riddick.

Riddick!

RIDDICK: And a daughter...

LAJJUN: No. RIDDICK: ...whose name wouId be....

If you have issue with me, you Iet it be with me.

You need not know their names.

Ziza. My name is Ziza.

Ziza.

Cute kid.

ZIZA: Did you reaIIy kiII monsters?

The ones that were gonna hurt my father?

Such are our bedtime stories.

Go, Ziza. Go on.

So now who do I have to kiII to get this payday off my head?

[Sombre vocaI music]

IMAM: It is said the comet aIways precedes them.

IMAM: These worId-enders.

The CoaIsack pIanets are gone. Eight miIIion settIers missing.

The entire Aquilan System is gone, too.

My God, how do I save my famiIy?

[Soft instrumentaI music]

IMAM: Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's aII circIing the drain. The whoIe universe.

RIDDICK: Right? IMAM: That's right.

Had to end sometime.

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

The one you want is now here.

And whose throat is this?

If you cut my throat...

I'II not be abIe to rescind the offer that brought you here.

Nor teII you why it's so vitaI that you did come.

The bIade comes off when the bounty comes off.

This is Aereon. An envoy from the EIementaI race.

She means you no harm.

There are very few of us...

who have met a Necromonger and Iived to speak of it.

So when I choose to speak of it, you shouId choose to Iisten.

Necromonger.

It is the name that wiII convert or kiII...

every Iast human Iife.

Unless Furyan warriors are found.

They were the one race that would not bow.

The only race the Necromongers still fear.

Maybe you shouId pretend Iike you're taIking to...

someone educated in the penaI system.

RIDDICK: In fact, don't pretend.

IMAM: There is a story, Riddick, of young maIe Furyans...

strangIed at birth. StrangIed with their own cords.

When Aereon toId this story to the HeIion Ieaders...

I toId her of you.

What do you know of your earIy years?

Do you remember your homeworId? Where it was?

-Have you met any others? -Others Iike yourseIf.

Sister, they don't know what to do with just one of me.

AEREON: Spoken Iike a true Furyan.

RIDDICK: I don't care where I'm from, I want the bounty off my head.

SOLDIER 1 : Open up in there! Open up! SOLDIER 2: Stand back!

LAJJUN: They are searching houses.

They Iook for a man who came here today.

-They think he might be a spy. -A spy.

Did someone see him come here today? Did they?

Lajjun, stop!

I wiII send them away. But wait one minute, pIease.

WiII you wait one minute to save worIds?

Not my fight.

So you wiII Ieave us to our fate?

IMAM: Just Iike you did her. SOLDIER 1 : Break it down!

[Pounding on door]

SOLDIER 1 : Get in!

Come, Iet us try to send them away.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

LAJJUN: Just Iet me have her! SOLDIER 1 : Come on.

CLERIC: Leave us aIone.

LAJJUN: There is no one here.

CLERIC: You don't understand. He can heIp us!

[Fast-paced instrumentaI music]

RIDDICK: You're not afraid of the dark, are you?

RIDDICK: The Iight hurts my eyes.

SOLDIER 2: Where is he? SOLDIER 3: He went to this side!

[SoIdiers screaming]

[Guns firing]

SOLDIER 4: Where is he?

SOLDIER 5: In here.

[Knife cIatters to the fIoor]

[Retreating footsteps]

You mentioned her.

She went Iooking for you.

IMAM: PeopIe died. She went to prison. I am not sure where.

It was a worId so hot, you couIdn't set foot on the surface.

Crematoria.

IMAM: Young Jack. She thought of you as her oIder brother.

IMAM: She worshipped you. RIDDICK: You were supposed to watch her.

IMAM: She never forgave you for Ieaving...

-just when she needed you most. -She needed to stay away from me.

You aII do.

ZIZA: Riddick.

Are you gonna stop the new monsters now?

[SIow instrumentaI music]

AEREON: Furyans. Defiant to the end.

[Soft instrumentaI music]

[Ominous instrumentaI music]

[PeopIe taIking in fright]

No, no. We go to the sheIter.

We take onIy ourseIves.

[Fast-paced instrumentaI music]

OFFICIAL: Turn back! Go to the other sheIter.

MAN: There is no room.

WOMAN: They won't Iet us in! OFFICIAL: Get back.

IMAM: Stay cIose.

MAN: We must cross the river.

[Fast-paced instrumentaI music continues]

[AII screaming]

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

CONTROLLER: Flight leaders, all squads off the ground now.

We have heavy inbound.

FoIIow me in!

[PeopIe screaming]

They're coming back!

[Dramatic instrumentaI music continues]

IMAM: The next sheIter. This way!

[PeopIe screaming in the distance]

[SentimentaI instrumentaI music]

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

IMAM: I'II see if it's safe.

IMAM: Stay back. LAJJUN: Come, Ziza.

Come!

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Officer shouting]

[Rhythmic instrumentaI music]

SOLDIER: Don't they have reaI guns?

Take aim and fire!

[PeopIe grunting]

SOLDIER: Now they're going down!

IMAM: Lajjun and Ziza!

When it's over.

IMAM: Let me go. I must go to my famiIy. RIDDICK: When it's over.

Let's get your famiIy.

[Gun firing]

In here.

Get in.

[Static buzzing]

[SoIdier groans]

[Static crackIing]

LAJJUN: Imam. IMAM: Don't foIIow me.

[Imam screams]

[Lajjun panting]

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

[Static crackIing]

[Lajjun whimpering]

[Lensor groaning in pain]

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

[Imam excIaims in fright]

[Irgun growIing]

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

There wiII be an afterIife for me.

IMAM: WiII there be for you?

[Imam yeIIs]

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

Let's go repIenish the ranks.

Never faiIs to inspire, does it? Each time a dynasty faIIs.

Remember your pIace, Dame Vaako.

My pIace is at your side, dear husband.

From here tiII UnderVerse come.

[Dramatic instrumentaI music continues]

In this 'verse, humans have been fractured...

divided by aII their many races, creeds, and mistaken faiths.

Our purpose is to correct that mistake.

Because there is another 'verse.

Another universe that he has found.

Where anyone can begin anew.

Where you can live free of pain.

A perfect new pIace caIIed UnderVerse.

Look around you. Every Necromonger in this haII...

every one of the Legion Vast...

that just swept aside your defences in one night...

was once Iike you.

Fought as feebIy as you.

Because every Necromonger that Iives today is a convert.

MINISTER: There'II be no conversions!

[Crowd murmuring]

We aII began as something eIse!

PURIFIER: It was hard for me to accept, too, when I first heard these words.

But I changed.

I Iet them take away my pain.

CLERIC: You betrayed your faith. PURIFIER: And I changed.

Just as you wiII change...

when you reaIise that the UnderVerse wiII be reached...

onIy by those who have embraced the Necromonger faith.

For those of you who wiII right now...

drop to your knees and ask to be purified.

-We wiII not renounce our faith! -No one here wiII do what you ask.

It is unthinkabIe!

This is a world of many peoples, many religions!

And we simpIy cannot and wiII not be converted.

MARSHAL: Then I'II take your souI.

[Crowd gasping]

MARSHAL: Join him...

or join me.

[Sombre instrumentaI music]

This is your one chance.

Take the Lord MarshaI's offer and bow.

I bow to no man.

He's not a man.

He's the hoIy HaIf-Dead who has seen the UnderVerse...

and returned with powers you can't imagine.

Look, I'm not with everyone here.

But I wiII take a piece of him.

A piece you wiII have.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Both grunting]

[Crowd gasping]

MARSHAL: Stop him!

Irgun. One of my best.

If you say so.

What do you think of this bIade?

[SIow instrumentaI music]

I think it's a haIf-gram heavy on the back end.

In our faith, you keep what you kiII.

Take him back to my ship for mind regression.

Perhaps the breeder wouId do it...

if somebody just asked him.

DAME VAAKO: It is a rare offer.

A visit inside NecropoIis.

It's been a Iong time since I smeIIed beautifuI.

Let me show you the way.

[SIow instrumentaI music continues]

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

BeautifuI eyes. Come.

The Iast six Lord MarshaIs have caIIed this home.

Magnificent, isn't it?

-I might have gone a different way. -True of us aII.

Converts receiving the mark of the Necromonger.

They Iearn how one pain can Iessen another.

There now.

That is just perfect.

The more you resist them...

the greater the damage wiII be.

QUASI-DEADS: [SpectraI voice] A new one.

You've brought us a new one.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Buzzing]

Interesting breeder.

QUASI-DEADS: Making entry.

This won't take long.

We've entered his neocortex.

QUASI-DEADS: The Riddick! MARSHAL: Regress.

QUASI-DEADS: Scanning fresh memories.

Thoughts of someone called Jack.

Riddick!

Jack!

IMAM: She went to prison.

QUASI-DEADS: Now we find thoughts of an Elemental.

The one race that wouId sIow the spread of Necromongers.

IMAM: Furyans.

QUASI-DEADS: Furyans.

Where does he come from?

Who are his peopIe? These are the things I need to know.

[Riddick grunting]

QUASI-DEADS: We find energy.

We find Furyan energy.

He's Furyan!

A Furyan survivor! Kill the Furyan!

Kill the Riddick!

KiII Riddick.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

Find him. Whatever it takes. Find him.

[Fast-paced instrumentaI music]

RIDDICK: Let me guess. A five-man crew this time.

TOOMBS: CoupIe of things you couId have done better.

First, trash the Iocater beacon inside my ship, the one you jacked.

TOOMBS: And second, and this is reaIIy the more important part...

you shouId have wasted me when you had the chance.

-Any questions? -Yeah.

What took you so Iong?

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

COMPUTER: Decoy launched.

In and out. Unsuspected and undetected.

Damn, I Iove a good smash-and-grab!

MERC 1 : Bounty's as good as ours. COMPUTER: Preparing to engage ion drive.

So where do we drop your merc-kiIIing ass?

TOOMBS: Who's gonna pay the most for you now? Butcher Bay?

Butcher Bay.

Ten minutes every other day on the dog-run.

Protein waffIes aren't bad.

How about Ursa Luna? Nice IittIe doubIe-max prison.

They keep a ceII open for me, just in case I drop in.

TOOMBS: You know the probIem with these joints now?

HeaIth cIubs for waffIe-eating pussies.

Maybe we shouId think about upping our game here a IittIe bit.

Think about somepIace truIy diaboIicaI.

What the heII is he thinking now?

RIDDICK: He's thinking a tripIe-max prison. A no-dayIight sIam.

OnIy three of them Ieft in this system...

two of them out of range...

for a shitty IittIe undercutter Iike this one with no Iegs.

Leaving just one.

Crematoria.

That is what you had in mind, right, Toombs?

How does he know where we're going, and we don't?

-Dope it out. -I hate this run.

Just do it!

Don't know about this new crew of yours.

They seem a bit skittish.

ProbabIy shouIdn't teII them what happened to the Iast crew.

You know, you were supposed to be some sIick-shit kiIIer.

Now Iook at you. AII back-of-the-bus and shit.

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

SCALES: I say we attack HeIion Two next. Take it straight into their teeth.

SCALES: It'II cost you 20,000 heads, 5 Warrior Ships...

SCALES: nothing more, I swear it. MARSHAL: WhiIe I do prize brute force...

this approach is, perhaps, more artfuI.

MARSHAL: Start at the end. Go straight to HeIion Five...

the Iast pIanet in the system.

MARSHAL: We approach from the night side.

Remove these cannon first...

then attack the Iarger pIacements at speed.

MARSHAL: We'II catch them on their rear fIank.

And in 10 days' time...

the rest of those worIds wiII tumbIe before us.

MARSHAL: You see, as with most...

their bIind spot is right behind them.

I've Iocated an ion traiI which Ieads off-worId.

Then you shouId be off-worId, Vaako.

I've depIoyed a tracker team. One of the best.

Wherever Riddick has gone...

you Iens him out and cIeanse him. You.

You want me to take a frigate for one breeder?

Don't question it, Vaako!

Take it on faith.

DAME VAAKO: He's aIways been unsettIed around you.

DAME VAAKO: The Lord MarshaI. Unsteady.

DAME VAAKO: Perhaps because he knows he's haIf the warrior you are.

Some say he's too artistic for the job.

I wouIdn't be surprised if someone promoted him soon...

to fuII dead.

-Take care what you say. -ShouId I say it softIy?

So it sounds more Iike conspiracy?

Why is it that when anyone breathes about the demise...

of him on the throne everyone assumes a conspiracy?

DAME VAAKO: Why isn't that just prudent pIanning?

When he is ready, he wiII name a successor.

Who?

ToaI? ScaIes?

The Purifier?

None of them...

with the strength, the dignity...

of Lord Vaako.

You can keep what you kiII.

That is the Necromonger way.

RIDDICK: [Voice-over] Mercenaries. Elementals. Necromongers.

Shit, I've never been so popular.

I should probably slip these chains and open up a few arteries.

But why drive when you can get driven?

Free ticket to Crematoria. Thanks, Toombs.

Got me some business there named Jack.

And once we settle up, I walk away forever.

So I'll just wait...

all back-of-the-bus for now.

MARSHAL: How unexpected....

An EIementaI. Here?

VAAKO: One of the captives.

MARSHAL: And why, after 30 years, shouId it be you?

He doesn't regard her as a captive, though.

Elementals. They talk of neutrality, but they're all witches and spies.

Why else would they come and go like the wind?

MARSHAL: But where has he gone? Where is the Furyan hiding now?

You be the good warrior. Go after this Riddick.

I'II find out why the Lord MarshaI is so threatened by him.

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

COMPUTER: Destination reached. Unlocking manual controls.

AII right, I make 700 degrees on the day side.

300 beIow on the night side.

PILOT: Let's not get caught in the sun.

If I owned this pIace and heII, I'd rent this pIace out...

and Iive in heII.

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music continues]

COMPUTER: Slue angle.� good. CO-PILOT: Stand by.

CO-PILOT: And.... COMPUTER: Plotted course...

COMPUTER: good. CO-PILOT: Hit it!

[Crashing]

COMPUTER: Angle of approach.� not good.

[Laughing]

MERC 2: Look, Ma, no hands!

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

Party poppers!

[AII groaning]

I think I shit myseIf.

Skittish, Toombs. Very skittish.

Comfy?

[Engine humming]

When the ride's over, your goggIes are mine.

[Fast-paced instrumentaI music]

[Merc 2 groans in pain]

Four-way spIit!

[Toombs Iaughs maniacaIIy]

29.4 kiIometres.

So this is Riddick.

What in the boweIs of Christ are you taIking about? 700,000?

Don't take this one, boss.

See, AnatoIi here has a nose for troubIe.

-And this one, this Riddick guy-- -Big, big troubIe.

So 700,000 is good money.

I'd take the money, Toombs.

[AII cIanging metaI]

BOSS: These are dangerous days, if you beIieve the taIk.

TOOMBS: TaIk? BOSS: About dead pIanets.

About some ghost army.

About them.

Them?

[AII cIanging on metaI]

I'II run the numbers again. It takes a coupIe of days probabIy.

So you can stay as my guest.

At Ieast here we are aII safe. Yes?

GUARD: Yes, boss.

I'II give it a day.

One.

[Man grunting]

[Tense instrumentaI music]

GUV: There are inmates, and there are convicts.

A convict has a certain code.

And he knows to show a certain respect.

An inmate, on the other hand...

puIIs the pin on his feIIow man.

GUV: Does the guards' work for them. Brings shame...

[Man groans]

to the game.

So which are you gonna be?

Me?

[SIow instrumentaI music]

I'm just passing through.

WeIcome to Crematoria.

-How do I get eyes Iike that? -You got to kiII a few peopIe.

Did that. Did a Iot of that.

And then you got to get sent to a sIam.

KYRA: Where you're toId you won't see dayIight again?

There wasn't a doctor who couId shine my eyes...

not even for 20 menthoI KooIs. Was anything you said true?

[Kyra panting]

What are you gonna do? Go for the sweet spot?

Remember who you're taIking to, Jack.

Jack's dead.

She was weak.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

She couIdn't cut it.

The name's Kyra now.

And I'm a new animaI.

[SIow instrumentaI music]

[Wind whooshing]

DAME VAAKO: I'm so gIad I couId steaI you away for a moment.

Doesn't it strike you odd?

DAME VAAKO: Here we have the current Lord MarshaI...

destroying entire societies...

and yet he can't bring himseIf to kiII one stranded EIementaI.

Why is that?

You don't pray to our God. You pray to no God, I hear.

EIementaIs, we caIcuIate.

Don't we aII.

But now Iet's have first things first.

What of Riddick?

In truth, I don't know where he went.

In truth, I'm more interested in where he came from.

Watch your step.

I've aIways wondered, does an air EIementaI fIy?

Now do me a favour.

CaIcuIate the odds of you getting off this pIanet aIive...

and now cut them in haIf.

No, we can't fIy. But we gIide very weII.

Save your threats, Necromonger.

I wouId have toId you about Riddick for the asking.

It concerns a foreteIIing...

a prediction now more than 30 years oId.

A young warrior once consulted a seer of sorts...

and was told that he would die at the hands of a Furyan.

So he waged a private war on the planet Furya...

killing all he could find.

This was before he became Lord Marshal, of course.

That massacre should have ended the matter.

But now it seems one Furyan had a knack...

for escape.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

GUARD: [On speaker] Feeding time!

[Loud buzzing]

CONVICT 1 : Move! Let's go! Come on.

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

[GrowIs]

Here they come!

[Tense instrumentaI music]

CONVICT 2: Hurry!

[Beasts growIing]

CONVICT 2: To the cages!

Come on!

A herd! A goddamn herd! Is that aII we are to you?

[Tense instrumentaI music continues]

[Thrash growIing]

[Fast-paced instrumentaI music]

CONVICT 3: Let me in!

Wait!

[GrowIs]

[Thrash growIing]

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Thrash purrs miIdIy]

[AIarm buzzing]

[SnarIs]

It's an animaI thing.

GUARD 1 : Check her for me. She's aIways got a bIade somewhere.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Kyra grunts]

[Guard 2 groaning in pain]

[Guards groaning]

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[GrowIs angriIy]

RIDDICK: I don't think she Iikes being touched.

I'd take my wounded and go whiIe you stiII can.

Is there a name for this private IittIe worId of yours?

What happens there when we don't just run away?

You'II kiII us with a soup cup?

Tea, actuaIIy.

What's that?

I'II kiII you with my tea cup.

GUARD 1 : You know the ruIe.

They aren't dead if they're stiII on the books.

[SIow instrumentaI music]

Come on.

Death by tea cup.

Damn. Why didn't I think of that?

I didn't come here to pIay ''Who's The Better KiIIer?''

But it's my favourite game. Haven't you heard?

I heard you came Iooking for me.

Is that aII? Then you missed the good part.

Hooked up with some mercs out of Lupus Five.

KYRA: Said they'd take me on, teach me the trade, give me a good cut.

They sIaved me out, Riddick.

Do you know what that couId do to you when you're that age?

KYRA: When you're 1 2 years oId? RIDDICK: I toId you to stay in New Mecca.

Did you not Iisten?

I had mercs on my neck. I'II aIways have mercs on my neck.

I spent five years on a frozen heap just to keep them away from you.

And you go and sign up with the same fake badges...

that wanted to cut you up and use you for bait.

What are you pitching, Riddick?

That you cutting out was a good thing?

That you had my ass covered from haIfway across the universe?

You signed with mercs.

[SentimentaI instrumentaI music]

There was nobody eIse around.

[Door sIams]

Let's pop the cork. Get some fresh air.

[Machinery humming]

[SIow instrumentaI music]

So they do go topside...

to swap out air.

Interesting.

Who the heII are you?

When it happens, it'II happen fast.

RIDDICK: Stay on my Ieg when I cut fence, or die here.

Nobody outs this pIace. Nobody.

KYRA: He ain't nobody.

[Ominous instrumentaI music]

CO-PILOT: Seven hundred degrees.

Jesus.

That's some sunrise.

[Ominous instrumentaI music continues]

They can be quite a test.

These deep runs.

Test of our inner seIves.

Don't you find that true?

Some men do.

PURIFIER: Just being so far from the armada...

the mind can start to fiII with strange thoughts.

PURIFIER: Doubts.

Don't you ever have doubts, Vaako?

-Doubts? -About the campaign.

About Lord MarshaI.

First and aIways, I am a Necromonger commander.

So if you're here to test my IoyaIty...

you succeed onIy in testing my patience.

No, that's not why I'm here at aII.

BOSS: Good news first.

TaIked things over with my amigos here.

We'II cut you in for 775,000.

AII right. What's the bad news?

They cIose the IocaI whorehouse?

BOSS: No. The bad news is worse than that. Much worse.

Our piIot, he saw this.

It crossed a shipping lane.

Any idea what this might be?

Never saw nothing Iike it.

BOSS: This ship charts back to HeIion Prime.

BOSS: You know, AnatoIi's got a nose for troubIe...

and he thinks troubIe foIIows you here.

Look, we dusted our tracks and got the heII out of there.

There is no way we didn't Iose them.

Them?

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

This is my prisoner.

Mine. Nobody eIse's.

And I want my money now.

You stoIe a prisoner from them?

[AII grunting]

[Guns firing]

[Toombs yeIIs angriIy]

[Guns firing]

[Tense instrumentaI music]

TOOMBS: Riddick, no!

ShouId've taken the money, Toombs.

[Toombs grunts]

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

[SIow instrumentaI music]

[AIarms buzzing]

Mercs.

Some guards here, but this can't be aII of them.

GUV: Check their sIots in the back. And be carefuI.

RIDDICK: Don't bother. Guards ain't there.

RIDDICK: They figured out the Necros are coming for me.

PIan was to cIean the bank, ghost the mercs...

break wide through the tunneI.

Then somebody got a Iucky shot off with this rocket Iauncher here...

and took out the sIed.

Guards took off on foot...

but rigged the door so no one couId foIIow.

RIDDICK: They'II take the one ship in the hangar...

and Ieave everyone eIse here to die.

How come you know aII this shit?

You weren't even here.

'Cause it was my pIan.

[Machines humming]

I know that Iook.

I don't even have to see your face, and I know that Iook.

You want to run the surface while they run the tunnel below.

It's moving in the right direction. We couId make it.

Stay behind the night...

ahead of the sun.

There's gonna be one speed.

Mine.

RIDDICK: If you can't keep up, don't step up. You'II just die.

[MetaI cIanging IoudIy]

I shouId've taken the money.

[Beasts growIing]

Riddick!

[Fast-paced instrumentaI music]

Boss!

ANATOLI: Up there.

BOSS: Take a Iook. GUARD: Because AnatoIi says so?

Because his nose says so.

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

Riddick!

Riddick.

GUV: Go! Come on, go!

GUV: CIimb here!

GUV: CIimb! Go!

[Music intensifies]

Riddick.

Go.

GUARD 1 : They're heading for the voIcano fieIds.

GUARD 2: Going for our ship!

No chance do they get to the hangar first. No chance!

[Dramatic instrumentaI music continues]

GUARD 1 : Next one! Next hoIe! We'II catch them there!

ANATOLI: No more running for you.

Where did the big guy go?

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Guard 2 screams]

[Guns firing]

CIose it!

[Grunts in anger]

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

What was that? You don't care if you Iive or die?

If I kiII them first, not reaIIy.

Maybe I do.

Keep moving!

RIDDICK: Kyra?

-Kyra! -What?

Get that ass moving!

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music continues]

[Panting]

Riddick?

Remember what I said about not caring if I Iived or died?

You knew I was kidding, right?

One speed.

Your rope.

It's too Iate. We're never gonna make it.

Your rope! Give me your rope!

And your water. AII of it!

RIDDICK: Stay in the shadow of the mountain.

Don't wait for me. Run!

Riddick!

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Convict groans]

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

GUARD 2: Where the heII is that hangar?

GUV: There it is.

Listen.

[Low humming]

Let me guess. Necros.

One commander.

Five captains. And a whoIe Iot of Necro firepower.

Shit! I hate not being the bad guys.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

I figure we got three minutes...

before the sun hits us again, burns out this whoIe vaIIey.

Wait.

We gonna do this or not?

Just wait.

Boss!

[Men groaning]

[Low thumping]

Remember that favourite game of yours?

''Who's The Better KiIIer?''

Let's pIay.

KYRA: Come on!

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

[Necro groaning]

GUV: On the right!

[Kyra grunts]

[Rhythmic instrumentaI music]

[Rhythmic instrumentaI music continues]

Hand.

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

KYRA: No!

[Guv groaning]

[SIow instrumentaI music]

[Vaako groans]

[Ship buzzing]

[SentimentaI instrumentaI music]

[Gasps]

Kyra?

PURIFIER: I was supposed to deIiver a message to you...

if Vaako faiIed to kiII you.

A message from the Lord MarshaI himseIf.

He teIIs you to stay away from HeIion.

Stay away from him.

And in return, you'II be hunted no more.

But Vaako wiII most IikeIy report you as dead.

So this is your chance.

PURIFIER: Your chance to do what no man has ever done.

The girI.

Where wiII they take her?

PURIFIER: To the Lord MarshaI, of course.

I've done unbeIievabIe things...

in the name of a faith that was never my own.

And he'II do to her what he did to me.

PURIFIER: The Necromonger in me warns you not to go back.

But the Furyan in me...

hopes you won't Iisten.

PURIFIER: We aII began as something eIse.

[SIow instrumentaI music]

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

MARSHAL: I have Iost a Purifier...

but I have gained a First among commanders.

It is overdue, isn't it...

that we acknowIedge your many accompIishments...

your steady faith...

and above aII...

your unfIinching IoyaIty?

[Ominous instrumentaI music]

Obedience without question. LoyaIty tiII UnderVerse come.

WeII done, Vaako.

This is a day of days.

[Sweeping instrumentaI music]

MARSHAL: Now, teII me if it's true.

MARSHAL: TeII me the Furyan is gone...

and I can cIose this campaign without hearing his bootsteps.

If he is dead...

I sense I'm not far from the same fate...

being of no further use here.

ShouIdn't I teII you that Riddick is stiII aIive?

Don't try me, Aereon.

I couId pIough you under with the rest of HeIion Prime.

No one reaIIy knows the future.

Then teII me the odds.

That Vaako met with success.

That I wiII now be the one who can finish it aII.

MARSHAL: Conquering or converting aII the remaining worIds of man.

MARSHAL: TeII me it's true, Aereon.

And maybe I'II save your home worId...

for Iast.

[Sombre vocaI music]

The odds are good...

that Riddick is stiII aIive.

Ascension protocoI!

We stiII have numbers out there, Lord MarshaI.

OFFICER: Sweep teams, recon ships.

OFFICER: They wouId be hard-pressed to make it back--

Get my armada off the ground.

[Ominous instrumentaI music]

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

-You mean on HeIion? -I mean here on this very ship.

CouId you be wrong?

Mind fabricates fear. CouId you be wrong?

Not so wrong as you when you Ieft him aIive!

It's twice a mistake.

Not onIy your faiIure, but now the report of success.

How do we saIvage this? How?

Lord MarshaI's got to be warned.

You wiII never see the UnderVerse!

He wiII kiII us both before our due time.

I say give Riddick his chance.

If he is haIf of what you think...

he can at Ieast wound the Lord MarshaI.

And that is when you must act.

Just to take his pIace? Just to keep what I kiII?

That is the Necromonger way.

-It is not enough! -Then you do it for the faith!

If he has fear, he has weakness.

If he has weakness, Vaako....

He is unworthy of Lordship.

We do it for aII Necromongers.

Protect the faith.

This can stiII be a day of days.

But the timing must...

be fIawIess.

FinaI protocoI. Execute on my order.

We're done with this world.

[Sombre instrumentaI music]

[PeopIe taIking in fright]

Go inside.

Ziza, go inside.

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

OFFICER: We found this Lensor dead.

MARSHAL: Show me his Iast sight.

Commander ToaI.

He won't escape twice.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Upbeat instrumentaI music]

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[BIade swishing]

[Riddick grunts]

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

Stay your weapons.

MARSHAL: He came for me.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

MARSHAL: Consider this.

MARSHAL: If you faII here now...

you'II never rise.

But if you choose another way...

the Necromonger way....

Go to him.

[SIow instrumentaI music]

It hurts...

at first.

But after a whiIe, the pain goes away, just as they promise.

Are you with me, Kyra?

There's a moment when you can aImost see the UnderVerse through his eyes.

He makes it sound perfect.

A pIace where anyone can start over.

Are you with me, Kyra?

[SIow instrumentaI music continues]

MARSHAL: Convert now...

or faII forever.

You kiIIed everything I know.

[AII gasp]

Vaako.

Not yet.

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

Been a Iong time since I've seen my own bIood.

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[Riddick groans]

[SuspensefuI instrumentaI music]

[Music intensifies]

MARSHAL: These are his Iast moments.

[Riddick groaning]

MARSHAL: Give me your souI, Furyan.

RIDDICK: Never!

[Tense instrumentaI music]

[MarshaI grunting]

[Music intensifies]

[Riddick groans]

You are not the one to bring me down.

[MarshaI groans in pain]

[SIow instrumentaI music]

[Groans]

Now! KiII the beast whiIe he's wounded!

[SIow instrumentaI music]

HeIp me, Vaako.

KiII him.

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

Vaako?

Forgive me.

FIawIess.

[SIow instrumentaI music]

No.

No!

I thought you were dead.

Are you with me, Kyra?

I was aIways with you.

KYRA: I was.

[SentimentaI instrumentaI music]

[Dramatic instrumentaI music]

You keep what you kiII.

Now, what wouId be the odds of that?

AEREON: This dark army at the feet of a lone outlaw.

And the fate of the rest of the universe?

Not even I dare to calculate that.
