Meeting His Equal

Chapter 6

Fry helped me stuff glow worms in the bottles of Paris' old bottles not like he was going to use them anyway. "Alright Fry ready?"

"Yeah let's go."

I looked at Jack and Imam "Stay here and stay safe, we will come back."

Fry and I walked out of the cave "We are going to have to be careful and quiet, but I am sure we will make it alright, they will be focused more on what is going on in Riddicks direction."

"I know what they are doing Crimson."

Finally I snapped, I grabbed her by the collar and held her by it, my eyes flashed black darker than ever I was pissed "That is it Fry! I am trying to help your sorry good for nothing ass and you treat me with disrespect? Good thing my weapon that I have wont work for shit or you would be dead, now listen up bitch and listen good, either we settle this as a fucking team or I kill you, leave you here for those fucking monsters to eat your toothpick of an ass…Now what is it going to be?"

She looked at me "Team…"

I loosened up and finally let go of her "You're not stupid Fry now You know that he is not going to go easily so here is the plan..."

We made it to the compound to see the lights of the plane "Looks like he got the thing started, we just need him to come back with us." I said

We stopped at the opening of the ship as Riddick stepped out, I knew that he was going to leave me on this planet and my anger snapped again and I reached up and punched him in the face "Jackass!"

He turned to look at me "Get in the fricken ship."

Fry and I looked at him "We have to go back for Imam and Jack." Fry said

"I won't be here when you get back." Riddick said

She looked at him "Are you afraid."

Riddick Boomed with laughter "Me Afraid?"

"Then come with me." I had to agree with Fry, Jack had grown on me and the holy man just happened to be the only one that every prayed for me. "I know you wont be there when you get back, that is why I am getting in the damn ship." I glanced at Fry and nodded slightly, He moved to the side and let me up "Why don't you come with me?"

Fry looked at the both of us "I cant." She said dropping to the ground, Riddick seemed to take pity on the girl and walked down the ramp "I will help you, come one."

Riddick went to go and Help Fry when I attacked, I jumped up on his shoulders and he fell forward and I made sure he flipped over, I sat on his chest and Fry looked over him "Listen, I am the captain of this ship and I say that we go back for them!"

Riddick looked at me "You are with her now?"

"Yeah." I said

He flipped me over his chest and spun me around to hover over me and he sat on my stomach "Then lets go."

We took off back to the rock to see one of those bird things trying to get to Jack and Imam, Riddick took his knife and attacked it stabbing it in the neck, soon it fell to the ground I snuck into the cave and looked at Imam and Jack "You didn't really think we left you do you."

Riddick smirked at them and we were ready to go, My eyes went dark and we left that cave and took off into the darkness. We stopped at the edge of the compound where we saw those monsters fighting, Riddick clutched my hand and I clutched Fry's who clutched Jack's and who clutched at Imam "Ready?" Riddick asked us all

"Ready. We replied

"Go."

We took off running past all of them down the longest ally way ever, it seemed forever to get past those things, but when I did I sighed with relief, the compound was right there "Everyone go to the ship!" Riddick ordered, Fry, Imam, Jack and I took off running "Leave it to Riddick to want to get back at one of those Mothers." I said getting everyone in the ship Imam and Jack took a seat in the seats In the back where I heard a scream, it was Riddick's, Fry turned and looked at me and I nodded "GO, I will protect them." I said

She disappeared in the darkness, I knew that there was a chance that one of them or both of them were not going to come back, so I prepared for the worse. "Are the two of you okay?"

Imam looked "Leaving beside the fact that my sons are all dead and I have found a hatred for this planet I am fine."

Jack nodded "I am fine Candara."

"Brave souls you guys are."

I heard movement and I held out what weapon I had and waited for any attack, the sudden sound of a hand gripping to the ship caused me to jump and Riddick suddenly appeared, he was wounded limping into the ship. "Where is…"

He looked at me and I understood "Fry isn't coming back." I said as much as I hated her I was a little sad that she was gone.

I helped Riddick into the drivers side of the ship and I sat in the copilots seat, he closed the hatch and turned each switch on. Suddenly he stopped and turned everything off and the lights went off "What are you doing Riddick?" Jack asked worried

Riddick turned and looked at her "We forgot to say goodnight." He said just as one of those things hit the window. He turned his head and cocked it to the right and with one flick of the wrist the ship started to life and burned a bunch of birds behind us and sent the rest flying. All of us put our seatbelts on as we exited orbit into space.

I heaved a sigh of relief when we got away from that planet "Anything I am sure is better than where we were."

Riddick winced at the pain in his leg and I smiled "Give me your leg."

I took the first aid kit out and he hesitantly gave me his leg "Ouch man what happened to you."

"Got ambushed."

"Ah well I am sure you wont do that again huh?"

He glared at me and I laughed at him "SO what are you two going to do now?" Jack asked.

I took out the stitching needle and started to stitch up Riddick's leg
"Don't know haven't gotten that far yet." I said looking up at Riddick "I suppose we could run together but would that make sense."

He turned to me and smirked "Wouldn't but damn it would be easier."

"Why do you say that?" I asked

"I cant do what your doing." He said pointing to the stitching at his leg causing me to smile "Well then maybe it would be better if we did."

He changed the subject and turned to Imam and Jack "We will drop you off on New Mekah, from there you'll have to be on your own." He said

"What do the people ask when they ask about you two."

"Tell them that we died." I replied "Riddick died by being stabbed to death and Crimson died from a bird attack.

"You know we might run into some bad crap out here, maybe even a merc ship."

"I am sure we will handle it Jack." I said smirking "That is what we do. We are convicts after all."

Riddick turned the GPS unit and set it and we both made a pact as soon as Imam and Jack were asleep, I was the only Friend that Riddick had and he was the only friend that I had, we may have been equals but then on we were also friends, and teammates. And we did escape danger…For now

DUN DUN DUN
