She vaguely heard a voice 'stop it' but at the moment she was blinded by the light, and pain. But eventually the pain would become too much, and her umbrella would eventually come back up. She looked in the direction she heard the voice. At the moment her eyes appear to be colorless. She was temporarily blind. However her vision would eventually return to normal.

"Uh... What were you doing?" Vince knew it was a stupid answer, but he didn't really want to know why; if she wanted to die she could just ask him. He stopped an uncomfortable distance away, but he could barely stand the stench from here, especially the burning flesh smell.
[How do we address Jaq?]

{I was considering having Jaq get lost and/or trapped within the pyramid, but I'll immediately reenter her instead if you'd both preffer.}

Veronica took note of his scent. Automatically she knew what he was. "Before I answer, may I ask why you care?" she said. "Why should you care if I suddenly find my own existence pointless?" she asked while at the same time answering his question as to why she decided to kill herself.
[I was thinking she'd come across the crash site]

[I just don't want you to find yourself left out. If you want to put Jaq there, it would be fun, I agree. 3nodding Just making sure you weren't waiting for someone to show up or had plans.]
"If you want to die, just let me know. It'd be a win-win situation at least." Vince shrugged, trying to suppress the emotions screaming at him DON'T DO THIS YOU DON'T LIKE TO KILL. So he ignored his conscience, and tried to cover his arse. "But than again, you're right. If you tell me, I may find it worse punishment to keep you alive, and you'd have to deal with a bodyguard like me till the end of my days." He shrugged, trying to appear nonchalant.

{EDIT: I was considering doing a whole 'mummy kidnaps Jaq' plot then worming Alceste in. Can always do that later, though.}
Having fled from the shadow cast by the pyramid, Jaqueline found herself wandering aimlessly once more through the desert. That was, her wandering was aimless until the very moment she spotted a downed UFO. With an excited squeel she bolted towards it, feeling the sudden compulsion to study and admire every nook and cranny the UFO had to offer.

"Well, it is exactly as I said. My life is meaningless. In fact, my entire existence is pointless" Veronica said, a little miffed at the idea of a dog following her around making sure she didn't die. She lowered the umbrella again for a fresh wave of pain.

The space ship was totally busted. The exterior was in decent shape if not a bit banged up, but the equipment on the inside was all busted up. Nothing but a nice soft bed was in good shape.

Jaq was having a field day, poking at various broken doodads and gizmos like she'd die if she didn't. (She also swiped anything that wasn't too big or nailed down, but that was to be expected...if not outright assumed knowing her.) When she eventually got to the bed, Jaq looked confused. "I thought aliens slept in futuristic jelly pods..."

It was actually a very nice bed. Very soft, and easy to sleep on. A funny thing is that it was an earth made bed.

"Oh no you don't, I ought to keep you living if you're that upset by it." Reluctantly, Vince walked over and took the umbrella -well, tried to, she was definitely a rival when it came to strength- and pushed it up to throw her back in the shade.

Veronica was surprised when she suddenly stumbled backward. She growled lightly feeling the cooler shade area. Normally when someone got in her way she'd fight back. But she can't see where to strike, so fighting back is meaningless as she was still blind.

Vince barked out a laugh as he circled her. "Come now, you can't think I'd let you off that easy... Maybe you're mission in life is to kill me; then what? If you're dead I'll never get to die." He barked out another laugh.

Jaq poked the bed a couple times, finding it to be quite soft. She almost wanted to lay in it, just to see how it felt. But that would be rather rude, wouldn't it? (Like stealing broken doodads wasn't!)

Veronica looked annoyed, but more confused. "'My mission?' what kind of bullshit are you dreaming of? As if I even care about something like that" she said, annoyed how he seems to have an idea that they are arch-enemies when she barely even knows him. Why would she even make it a mission to kill a wolf when she can't even bite a human?
"Oh, perhaps I should be glad I'm blind for now. You sound as if you want me to fight you. However even if I wanted to I couldn't" She said almost in a snobby voice. "And even if I could I wouldn't"

Vampires and werewolves hate each other. It's common knowledge, so why didn't she want him dead just as much as he wanted her dead? "Well, Ms. High-And-Mighty, you're no fun." Yes, Vince wanted to fight, but he would want to -and would eventually be unable to control it- every day until the full moon, then it would start to ease back to normal.
