The pub doors open for a second time, indicating the entry of a third presence into the empty night. Varian turns around to notice a large intimidating man towering over him from just outside the pub doors. The man, known as Waarne, forced out a weak laugh and brushed past Varian, tossing him to the side as if he were never there. He looked out into the night and screamed in a raspy voice. "Show yourself you pitiful bastard!"
The silence continued.
Varian stepped up next to the enormous man and scratched his head.
Waarne threw a huge clawed hand over Varians chest nearly toppling him. "Stand back. You may not know what you are getting into."
At that he burst into a run, out into the darkness. He gave one final look back at Varian just as he disappeared out of view. He continued running and eventually came to a clearing. The stars shone beautifully, scattered amongst the large moon that hung above. The light emanating from the midnight moon made the trees that surrounded the perimeter glow a dusty white. Waarne sat down in the middle of the field and waited, not showing any expression. Maybe finally he had found his father.
EDIT: Crap H.U.N.K posted before me, it still kind of works though. You can say that Waarne did not hear Riddick, and therefore did not notice his presence.
