(Harry's Thoughts)

~Riddick's thoughts~

"Talking"

Chapter 13

Slowly, the group rose from there crouch positions, their hands coming down from ringing ears. No one said a word and all were in a state of total shock at what they had just witnessed. None of them had ever seen anything like it in their lives and now with their hearing slowing coming back to them they could hear the screeching of the other creatures there were making their way towards them.

With their minds still ringing from the screech that seemed to echo around there heads, they took in the sight of the one that caused it.

Head clearing from the ringing, Riddick got up from the ground once it seemed that nothing else was coming their way and threw away his now useless bone shiv, the hatchlings had eaten through the very bone in their hunger. It gave him an idea of how dangerous these creatures are.

Dusting his hands off as he made his way towards Harry, who looked like he was going to fall over at any minute, Riddick could see that his mate wasn't going to be able to defend himself anytime soon, not with his eyes as dazed as they were or the way he was swaying in place.

~Going to have words with him later about putting his life on the line like that, if he doesn't want his backside red, he'd better learn.~ Riddick thought to himself, though the image of Harry with his ass red from a spanking, sent a shiver of lust through him, but it this was no time for him to be playing, he could hear the creatures in the distance making their way to the surface.

Grabbing the back of a frozen Shazza's shirt, he dragged her up and pushed her towards the cargo hold, seeing the woman stumble towards the others he turned and walked towards Harry. He looked his mate over for any injures and, seeing nothing but weakness troubling his mate, he scooped his tired boy into his arms and walked over to the others.

Imam pulled Ali closer as the young lad tried to go to his new friend that was lying limp in Riddick arms and if it wasn't for the rise and fall of the boy's chest, they would have thought him dead.

The group could hear Riddick muttering under his breath as he stepped into the cargo hold as he passed by a still shaken Shazza and allowed Imam to check Harry over. However both he and Fry froze as they heard the sounds of rock crumbling and the shrieks of more creatures in the distance.

Riddick really didn't want to let go of Harry, but he knew the holy man could be trusted with his mate safety for a few minutes, plus he wanted checked out what had nearly killed his mate down in the hole.

He knew it had to have been something bigger and more deadlier than those hatchlings from the wound that had marked his beautiful skin. Placing his goggles on his head Riddick look towards the spires and wasn't disappointed by the overgrown lizards as Harry had called them coming out and taking to the sky.

"What is it Riddick? What is it now?" Fry said. There was fear in her voice as she tried to see what was making the sounds in the growing darkness.

"Like I said, it ain't me you gotta to worry about." Riddick said, watching as more and more of the hammer-headed creatures took to the sky. He could see that many were heading towards them as the giant planet finally covered the last bit of light.

Going inside, Riddick heard Fry close the cargo doors behind him as he made his way into the dark towards where Imam and his son were sitting by Harry.

His mate had his eyes closed, resting against the wall and Riddick could even smell the weakness from his mate. He knew Harry needed more blood and soon but that had to wait until they got to a safer area.

He could also smell the overpowering scent of fear and panic coming off the others as they tried to find more light sources.

He turned his head away to stop himself getting blinded by the light and put his goggles back on as torches were found.

Johns looked at Harry but even he could see the beauty was in no shape to be questioned.

Plus he knew it wasn't time to ask the boy about what the hell he had done and Johns wasn't the only one. All of them could see the boy was not up for talking and by the way Riddick was checking Harry over, big bad wasn't going to let anyone near enough to ask.

Johns couldn't help feeling jealous at how close Riddick was to Harry, but he had to put those emotions on hold for now, there would be time for that later.

"You remember the boneyard? These just might be the fuckers that killed every living thing on this planet." Johns said, not helping with the fear that everyone was feeling by saying that.

"What are we gotta do now?" Jack asked, getting up from where he had been sitting next to Shazza who was still in shock.

"Are those the only lights we have? Is this everything?" Paris asked panicky, holding tightly to his lighter with a death grip and leaning against the wall far away from Harry.

Looking on the floor Fry answered him. "No. There's a cutting torch here somewhere. I just can't find it..."

Imam left Harry's side when he saw that Riddick would care for him and he knew his son, Ali would shout if something happened to the young man he was beginning to see as a fourth son. Suddenly the creatures outside began to make that strange sound again.

"Quiet please everyone." Imam said as he, his eldest and Jack put their heads against the wall.

"Why they do that? Make that sound?" Jack whispered.

"Perhaps, it's the way they see. With sound reflecting back." Imam explained.

Suddenly there was a sharp scraping noise above them, it sounded like clawed feet run across metal but it was the sound of luggage being knocked over that spooked them the most. One of those things had gotten into the cargo hold.

Riddick picked up Harry and held him close just in case they had to make a run for it. When the smaller male let out a moan in protest from being moved, Riddick quickly silenced him and ran a hand over his back, causing Harry fall quiet again. He knew something was up even though he didn't fully understand what was happening around him.

"Could be a breach in the hull, I don't know." Fry said, knowing everyone had the same question in mind as to what that sound had been.

"Come on, Johns. You got the big gauge." Riddick said, a smirk clearly in his voice. Moving towards the man, he placed the still out of it Harry in Imam's arms as he passed, just in case one of those fuckers did come out to say hello, he didn't want Harry in harm's way.

Plus he wanted to mess with Johns a little, he didn't like how Johns was looking at his mate.

"I'd rather piss glass. Why don't you go fuckin' check?" Johns answered sarcastically.

"I'm not staying here one more second." Paris cried panicking.

"Where you going? Hey!" Johns called out as he and Fry rushed after Paris.

Riddick watched as the coward of the group tried to open the hatch door leading outside. Seeing he others stop him, he paid them no mind.

Riddick stood by Imam, Harry and Ali looking into the darkness were he caught glimpses of the creatures out there.

"You don't know what's out there!"

"I know what's in here." Paris said back and everyone knew he was talking about harry.

Imam, seeing that this was getting them nowhere and that they were in more danger staying in this part of the ship, moved towards some of the other cargo holds. Riddick watched him for a moment before realising what the man was planning and walked over. He was followed along with the holy man's children and, seeing what he wanted to do, took Harry back into his arms so that Imam could pry one of the shutters open.

Lifting it up, Imam called to the others and urged them through the opening and into the next cargo compartment.

Riddick walked through with Harry and looked around, he could see none of the creatures waiting in the room but it was hard to see with all the luggage and wreckage strewn about, but thanks to his nose, he could smell that some of the fuckers were some inside the room with them and they were close.

They needed to keep moving.

Picking Harry up from the ground, Riddick spotted the cutting torch lying next to his feet and, using his foot in a quick movement, kicked it into the air and grabbed it.

Walking in after the others, Imam closed the shutter after him and Riddick placed Harry down gently. Looking at the others, he snorted as their fear got the better of them, making them jump at moving shadows in the darkness.

He moved silently over to Paris but before he could light the torch on the lighter the guy was holding, one of the creatures stabbed through the thin metal shutter, right by Imam's head, who had been leaning against it catching his breath. The holy man shot forwards into the group while his sons cried out in fear along with the others.

Not wanting him or his mate being so close to the fuckers, Riddick lit the torch, startling Paris, and started to cut through into another compartment. Looking back, he saw Imam pick Harry up and, knowing his mate was in safe hands, he made his way into the next compartment.

Harry slowly became aware of his surroundings and once more he could fell the fear and hunger in the room. He hated this, being so weak his mate or others had to carry him around, if only he could feed from Riddick again, he'd be up and moving.

Harry opened his eyes a little bit and watched as Imam passed him through a hole to Johns and he could feel Jack and Ali by his side; the fear and worry coming off of the two made him want to take them in his arms and keep them safe. He even forgave Jack for his little hero crush on his mate because he really couldn't blame him, his hunter was hot.

And where was his absent hunter? Using his elf senses as his Vampire side was so weak, Harry felt Riddick going deeper into the compartment.

And he wasn't alone.

One of Imam's boys was also there, but… there was something lurking in the darkness and it's presence made him whimper in fear. He could feel the insatiable hunger building, the creatures where inside and very close to the boy and Riddick.

They were hungry.

"It's going to be okay Harry, everything going to be ok." Jack whispered hearing Harry whimper.

"Riddick." Harry whimpered again. His voice was weak and sounded like he hadn't used it in years. Harry tried to move his body but all he felt was pain, making him cry out weakly. He wanted his mate, wanted his hunter safe. (Riddick please come back! Please! If you die I'm going to drag you back! You hear me!) Harry thought, feeling really scared as his mate was in danger and he could do nothing to help.

"Imam! Something's wrong with Harry." Jack called when Harry whimpered in pain.

"My son you must rest, please keep still." Imam said comfortingly, placing his hand on Harry's sweating forehead.

"Ridd…Riddick….Hass…Hassan…..da…danger..." Harry moaned. His voice could no longer take anymore abuse and gave out, leaving Harry in pain and weak, he needed to feed from his mate and very soon otherwise he will go back into a deep sleep again.

"Hassan?" Imam asked Harry in confusion, looking around he saw said son was no longer standing by his brothers, he was missing. "Hassan? Where is Hassan?"

Harry could smell death coming and knew Hassan's time was up, he could see it in his mind's eye; the boy's fear overwhelmed him and causing him to run, right into the monsters' arms that were waiting in the pitch blackness.

Harry cried out as he felt the boy's pain.

Then nothing.

Feeling Riddick running towards them Harry overcame his pain and opened his eyes.

"RIDDICK! DOWN!" Harry screamed in warning, just in time to stop the others from blinding him with their light.

0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0

"RIDDICK! DOWN!"

Riddick heard Harry's warning and did what his mate told him. Diving to the ground, he was glad he did, he really hated when he got a face full of blinding light. Everyone screamed when the creature appeared behind him. Johns went mad and started shooting randomly into the darkness and everyone held still waiting to see if Johns had hit it.

Shockingly, he actually managed to hit the thing as it fell down dead before them making them all jump.

"Is it alive?" Fry asked as everyone slowly half step towards it.

As they shone lights on it, its skin began to blister and smoke, like it was being cooked over a fire.

"It's like the light is scalding it." Paris stated in shock.

"Fuck me." Shazza stared in shock, this is what took her Zeke, and nearly got her.

"It hurts them, light actually hurts them." Fry said not believing her eyes and they all jumped back in surprise as the creature's hand twitched in reflex.

Suddenly strange noises appeared from the direction Riddick had ran from, it made everyone look towards it, trying to see into the darkness.

"Is that Hassan?" Imam asked loudly. You could hear the pain, sadness and anger in his voice at the loss of his son.

"We'll burn a candle for him later. Come on. Let's get out of here." Johns said unemotionally, leading the others into the next compartment.

0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0

Riddick held Harry to him as everyone sat around the cutting torch. He knew both Fry and Johns where watching them, along with everyone else and he knew that they wanted to know how Harry had saved Shazza.

Though Shazza seemed to care less how Harry had done it, as she sat next to Jack holding the boy close to her side, she was more than grateful.

Beside them, Imam held both of his boys by his side, mourning for their lost family member. Though Riddick could tell Ali, though upset at the loss of his brother, wanted to come over and see if Harry was ok.

"Feed." Harry whispered and Riddick knew what would make his mate better again; sitting Harry up in his lap, he rested his mate's head against his neck. He could feel Harry fangs growing and shivered as they brushed against his neck, right over the mating mark. He felt little pain as Harry bit down deep into the skin, all he felt was pleasure and growled low deep in his chest. He felt himself hardened against Harry bottom and his growl turned more into a purr when the little vixen began to suck on his neck.

"What the fuck!" Fry cried, jumping to her feet as she watched a now purring Harry sucking on Riddick's neck.

"Holy frozen donkey dick!" Jack said in shock and Shazza looked on in shock at the scene she was witnessing.

"Allah!" Imam whispered.

Johns had his gun pointed at them, more at Riddick though then Harry, when he saw a hint of Harry's fangs and he realised what he was looking at.

"A Vampire, a fuckin' vampire." He whispered, though the others heard him clear as day.

"It can't be, Vampires died out about eight hundred years ago. They're only seen in movie vids now." Shazza said in disbelief.

"They did." Riddick growled, feeling Harry licking his neck to close the wound.

"They just missed me." Harry said cheekily. Facing the shocked people around them and licking his blood stained lips, Harry purred at the taste of his hunter, feeling the pain and weakness fade away into nothing.

Riddick knew he was teasing them but it didn't help that he was hard as a rock and Harry was not making it easy for him by squirming around in his lap. Knowing they wouldn't be getting any privacy anytime soon, he settled with spanking that hot ass, making Harry squeak and jump cutely.

"Riddick." Harry whined in outrage and began to rub his now sore bottom.

"That's only the start, wait till I get you alone and your real punishment starts for that stunt you pulled back there." Riddick growled.

The convict then pulled the stuttering Harry against him and claimed those red lips in a passionate kiss.

"Holy shit." Jack said in awe, a blush on his cheeks at the hot sight they made.

"Don't swear." Shazza said, but didn't really mean it as she too was watching hot scene.

Ali and Suleiman were giggling and Imam had a soft smile on his face for he could see the love between the two males and knew Riddick wouldn't hurt the boy he had come to see as a son.

Paris just took off his glasses and cleaned them, but you could see the blush on his cheeks.

Fry and Johns on the other hand had rage in their eyes and a whole lot of jealousy alongside it.

But neither Riddick nor Harry cared.

Sadly their kiss didn't last long for Jack wanted to know something.

"Don't vampires turn to dust in the sun?"

Pulling back, Riddick watched with a smug expression as Harry slowly came out of his daze. Shaking his head to clear it, Harry looked towards Jack and saw all the others wanted to know as well.

Taking a deep breath Harry started his explanation. "The reason I haven't turned into a pile of dust is because I'm only half Vampire, so I'm not affected by the sun but I have their thirst for blood and their power."

"How do you become a half vampire I thought from the stories that you have to be turned?" Shazza asked.

"Well that true and not so true. You see there are those that are born as vampires or have the genes dormant inside them so they don't have to be turned. My birth father had the gene but wasn't a vampire and my mother didn't have that gene so that gave me a 50/50 chance of turning into a full Vampire if my mother had been only a human." Harry said from his seat in Riddick's lap.

"What was your mother?" Imam asked, intrigued by what he was learning.

"She was an Elf."

"What the fuck! There is no such thing as Elves!" Fry shouted in disbelief. She couldn't believe the others were falling for this bullshit, she knew the man was a freak but this was just taking the piss.

"Yes there are, you just haven't seen them. Elves are very good at hiding just like vampires are, or were. Even if you can't see them, doesn't mean they're not around." Harry said glaring at the bitch. He hated that she seemed to fight with everything he said but he didn't let it get to him as he could smell the anger coming off her in waves.

Instead, he turned back to the others and carried on explaining, "Though there might not be any other elves around anymore as I haven't ran across any in my time here, but they may have just left to a new home so there no way to know for sure and as Riddick has told me vampires have died out. But it wouldn't matter anyway as I am a hybrid and both species fear my kind as we have the power of both and not as many weakness as them."

"But what about that screeching thing you did to save Shazza?Why you were pretty much out of it after?" Jack question as he tried to move closer to the pair but was pulled back by Shazza.

"Well you see because of my vampire side, even if I use my elf powers I still have to drink blood to get my power back and the 'screeching' as you call it was one of my vampire powers. It's where I pull power into my throat and release it in a scream and it sends out a pulse like wave that kills whatever is in its path. But by doing it when I had only just healed from the wounds I had from the hole and in the corning room, my power was still weak and by using it like that, well you saw how I was afterwards." Harry explained leaving out that he was also a wizard; it's always handy to have something up one's sleeve.

"So you're a Hybrid, is there anything else we should know about, Harry?" Johns asked. There was a look in his eye that reminded Harry too much of Voldemort, sending shivers down his spine in dread. Feeling a growl vibrate through the chest behind him and the arms tighten around him, Harry calmed a little at his mates protectiveness.

He knew what was going through Johns mind; if he got off this planet he would use Harry's power for his own gain and from the sound of the growling behind him, Riddick knew it to.

Riddick growled and tightened his arms around his vixen. No way was that fucker touching what was his. ~It's nearing time to ghost the blue-eyed devil. There is nothing on this fuckin planet that will or can take away my mate. ~

Harry didn't really want to tell them about all his powers and that he was a Wizard but he could just tell them about the ones that he would need to use to get the ship. "Well there is a few that I can do such as forming a ball of light and shooting out a small ball of fire but we can't rely on them because if I become stressed or panic that will blink out, I can see in the dark as long as its pitch black and no light hits my eyes or I will be blinded like Riddick only mine will take longer to heal. I can heal minor wounds and of course the screeching but that one I will use as a last resort."

"So your 'powers' as you call them are pretty much useless." Fry said smugly.

Harry let out a small hiss, showing his fangs at the bitch, but he held his tongue. Instead he snuggled back into his hunter's embrace and saw the smugness fall off Fry's face and a glare appear as she watched Riddick nuzzle his hair. (That's right bitch you may think some of my gifts are useless but I have the man you want.)

"But what do we do now?"

That took Fry and Harry out of their staring contest as everyone turned to look at Jack. Harry turned back to watch Fry as he leaned against Riddick. He could see her mind working a plan, she may be a bitch but she was useful to him at this time, though her usefulness was running out.

"So we got one cutting torch. We've got two hand lights, and there's gotta be something we can rip out of the crash ship." she said looking at the others around the room avoiding looking at Harry who was running his hand over Riddick's chest.

"Spirits. Anything over 45 proof burns rather well." Paris said as he fanned himself, even though it was now night, it was still hot and now in this little room with so many people and a flame, it was getting even warmer.

"How many bottles you got?" Fry asked, an idea on how to get them out of this mess forming in her mind. There was no way she was going to die on this planet.

"I don't know. Ten maybe, some more if we add the ones we didn't finish together." Paris said, thinking about what he had left after everyone and grab a bottle before.

Fry nodded and looked over to Johns "Johns, you've got some flares?"

Johns took his eyes off Harry, who he hadn't stop staring at since finding out he was a hybrid, plots and plans running thought his mind at having such a beauty by his side. Mentally shaking his head he turned to stare at Fry, even though he hadn't been paying too much attention to her, he had heard what she and the others had been saying and started to wonder what the hell she was up to.

Though Harry had a good guess at what she is planning and it would work to but there was one small problem, he could smell Jack bleeding and knew that if he didn't think of something, the hammerheads creatures outside will be onto her as soon as they left their little safe hidey hole.

Tuning back to the conversion going on around him, he was glad that no one had noticed he hadn't been paying attention.

"So maybe we got enough light" Fry said, looking into the light of the blowtorch.

"Enough for fuckin' what?" Johns asked, he really did not like where she was going with this.

"We stick to the plan. We get the four cells back to the skiff. We're off this rock." Fry said strongly, meeting Johns piercing eyes.

"I hate to ruin a beautiful theory with an ugly fact, but that sand cat out there is solar, it won't run at night." Paris said as he got up from his seat and moved to the over side of the room. Harry knew it was to get away from him; the guy had been fidgeting since Harry bite his mate to feed.

"He's right." Shazza said "And I don't know if I could get it to run at night with no power source."

"So we carry the cells." Fry said. "We'll drag them. Whatever it takes."

"You mean tonight with all those things still out there?" Jack said in fear, rocking back and forth before Ali grabbed his hand and held it, smiling when Harry sent him a nod.

"All right. Now how long can this last? A few hours? A day, tops?" John said, looking to Fry and the other his gaze lingering on Harry.

"I had the impression from the model… the two planets were moving as one and there would be a lasting darkness." Imam said staring into the air as he played with his beads; Harry knew the poor man with thinking of his lost son and Harry made a promise right there and then to make sure both Ali and Suleiman made it out alive.

"These suns gotta come up sometime if these creatures are phobic about light, then we just sit tight and let the sun come up." Johns said waiting for the others to agree with him.

Harry knew it would be a sound plan if the darkness last for maybe four or five hours, not days.

(We'd be dead within a day, picked off one by one.) Harry thought but he also knew that it wasn't just the monsters they had to worried about, Riddick had said this fucked up family will rip its self apart. (And by the look of things it's already started.) Watching as the tension grew between the two so-called leaders.

"I'm sure somebody else said that." Fry said stonily, looking right at Johns. "…locked inside that coring room."

"We need to think about everybody, especially the kids. They'll be scared out of their wits in the dark." Johns said, looking to Jack and Ali huddled together beside Shazza and Imam.

"Don't use them like that." Fry said pissed.

"Like what?" Johns asked his rage building.

"As a smokescreen. Deal with your own god damn fear." Fry said having enough this conversation. She was the captain damnit, she knew what was best for all of them.

"Why don't you shut your fuckin mouth for two seconds and let me come up with a plan that doesn't involve mass suicide!" John shouted, glaring at Fry as she brought focus onto his fear.

Harry stood silently from Riddick's lap, knowing his mate would have to get between Fry and Johns soon if the bitch kept pushing the merc's buttons.

"I'm waiting" Fry said smugly.

Johns said nothing, his mind coming up blank on what to do and that pissed him off even more. He was not taking any orders from some power-tripping bitch.

"How much do you weigh Johns?" Fry asked unexpectedly. The other thought that question was random and wondered where she was going with this.

"What's it matter?" Johns asked thinking Fry was taking the piss, or lost her god damn mind.

"How much?" Fry insisted, her voice rising.

"Around 79 kilos, to be exact…" Johns said, humouring her before she cut him off with something that made his blood boil.

"Cos you're 79 kilos of gutless meat, that's why you can't think of a plan." Fry said angrily.

"Is that a fuckin' right" Johns shouted, shooting to his feet, raising his gun at Fry. Harry watched Riddick shoot up in Johns' way.

"Where are you doin?" Johns asked pointing his gun at Riddick's throat.

"This solves nothing" Imam said staring at the two men in disapproval.

Riddick took his goggles off and stared coolly at Johns tapping the tip of his shiv at Johns' groin. They were at a stand-off, both not wanting to back down. Riddick knew this could end two ways, Johns backing down or the walls painted in the fucker's blood.

Now normally, he wouldn't stop the blue-eyed devil from shooting down the bitch but she was Harry's prey and her throat belonged to him.

Out the corner of his eye, Riddick saw Harry making his way towards them.

"Now, now boys, let's play nice shall we." Harry said calmly placing a hand on each of their arms as he came beside them. "We have a plan for now, it maybe not the best." Fry glared at Harry for that. "But it's all we've got and as this darkness isn't going away anytime soon so we need to keep our heads, don't we," looking at both his hunter and Johns he could see them thinking about what he said.

"Now why don't you put the toys away as your scaring the children?" Harry asked.

"Fine" John whispered not taking his eyes off Riddick as he lowered his gun, Riddick stared right back not moving to his place till Johns sat back down.

Fry watched jealously as Harry calmed the two Alpha males, she had felt happiness when Riddick defended her not knowing he didn't do it for the reasons she was thinking.

Seeing the situation defusing as both men parted, shaking his head at how stupid Fry must be to anger a drug-up gun wielding marc, Harry made his way towards the frightened little ones. Sitting between them and pulling them into his side, Harry tried to calm there racing hearts.

"They're afraid of our light" he said looking at the two and letting he eyes fall on Suleiman as well when the boy made his way over to sit beside his brother. "That means we don't have to be afraid of them."

The three children nodded, their fear lessening and Harry smiled before standing up and making his way towards Riddick and standing by him.

"And you are sure you can get us there? Even in the dark?" Imam asked.

"No, I can't." Fry admitted before she looked with jealously to Riddick and Harry standing together.

"But they can."
