((Ayushi: Hey back for another chapter are you? I'm so glad. I wasn't too sure about writing this at first but it seem the majority of the people like it well enough. So I got another chapter up for you. I also don't own The Chronicles of Riddick unfortunately. But I do own on the characters not seen in the movie. I hope enjoy your read!))
"Tell Aereon I don't want to talk to her," Riddick told the solder slamming the door. The solder tried to say something as the door shut, but didn't get it out in time. Riddick heard him running away a few moments later.
He walked over and stood by the window. He watched as the sun come up over the distance mountains. He took a deep breath and Krya's scent filled his nostrils. He couldn't believe she was here or that it was really her. He couldn't, wouldn't. She was dead and that was that. She was gone and couldn't come back it was impossible. He remembered feeling her lifeless body in his arms.
The last moments of her life flashed in front of his eyes. He felt like a part of him had died that day as well. Something a copy, or a robot or whatever she was couldn't bring back to life.
He gave a small cruel grin. Why was it that woman always seemed to die for him? Wasn't it supposed to be the other way around? Like the stories the black knight dies for the beautiful princess. Fuck did that make him the princess.
He turned back to look at her as he left one arm resting on the window frame.
She was sitting on his bed. She was leaning back resting on her elbows looking around. The scientist had dressed her in form fitting pants that were black with a cobra scale design on them. His eyes trailed up to the top she was wearing. It was black without the design, it was sleeveless, cut low and kept together with two large buttons, exposing her flat stomach and a descent amount of cleavage.
Part of him wanted to go over and jump on her, snapping those buttons and.. He shook his head to get the thoughts out of his mind. That was the last thing that should be thinking right now. He turned back to look out the window, and way from her.
"Like the shirt?" Krya asked humor in her words.
"Yeah its nice," he said sarcastically still looking away. Few people could read him like she did. Maybe it was her after all. He didn't think you could program anyone to read him. It would be interesting to see them try though.
"Glad you like it," she said watching him, "What are you looking at?"
"Sunrise," he told her.
"So they fix your eyes?" she asked her eyes combing over his goggles.
"No you think I would let them. They wanted to thought," he said removing his goggles and looking at her. Unlike most people she didn't gasp or even looked surprised. She smiled.
"Didn't think you would let them," she said almost able to see her reflection in his eyes, or at least she imagined she could.
She had missed those eyes. She had been mad at him for so long, hated him for leaving her. Now she was just glad to be alive. Dieing did that to you. She was just grateful she got to see him, again. She knew this feeling wouldn't last long. He would likely push her off again, but for this one moment she could imagine they were just old friend meeting after being away from one another for a long time.
"Shouldn't you go answer that call?" Krya asked.
"If you say so, your majesty," he said sarcasm dripping off his words. He put his goggles back into place and walked past her to the door. She stuck her tongue out at him as he passed. In the blink of an eyes he grabbed her tongue, and held it in-between his fingers.
"Don't stick it out unless your planning to use it," he said then let her go. He started walking towards the door again. She trotted up beside him.
"Fine," she said standing on tip toes she licked his cheek softly letting it linger for a moment. Then walked off, and out the door. He watched her walk a eyebrow raise. For the first time in a very long time he hadn't been expecting something. He was almost taken aback.
He fallowed her wondering if she knew where she was going.
Krya walked through the halls with easy. A few guards looked at her, but then saw the big man behind her, and didn't dare glance at her again. The path was clear in front of her. A few people been bowed. It almost made her laugh. She had forgotten Riddick was even more of a big shot then before.
She walked through the labyrinth of a ship with easy. The scientist had showed her the whole ship in great detail. It had taken time but she learned her way around. She had been up for a few days now. They had wanted to make sure she was 'functioning normally' before they showed her to Riddick. The men had made her feel that she was a toy made for him. She hadn't cared through it got them to bring her to life again didn't it.
She reached the communications room Riddick a few feet behind her. A young scientist looked over and smiled when he caught sight of her. He was only a little taller then Riddick with lean arms and legs, red hair that tickled the side of his eyes, a strong jaw with a rounded chin, clear smooth skin and covered head to toe in Necromonger armor. The armor looked out of place with an angelic face like that on top. He looked to be around 20 years old if that.
The scientist ran over and took Krya's hand.
"Oh Krya its so good to see you up, and about…." he said then paused frozen in place seeing Riddick walk up behind her. He stared at the looming figure that's stood over her. He backed up slowly bowing, eyes down as he did so.
"I'm sorry your lordship…I mean sir. I didn't see you there," he stammered obviously terrified.
"Jack its ok. I mean its not like he's going to attack you or anything not with me here," Krya said going over, and making him stand up.
"Jack," Riddick said a chuckle rumbling in his chest, turning his head to the side smiling a look that would have horrified most. Krya glared at him hoping he would keep the joke between the two of them. His smiled widen. She was the only person in the universe most likely that had the right or the guts to glare at him and live.
"Yes, this is Jack. He was the head doctor on the project to bring me back to life. He resurrected me so I owe him one. Leave him be Riddick he's a good guy," she said almost ordering him to do so. The scientist beside her looked about to faint at her words.
"Fine," Riddick said plainly, "We both owe him one. For now." He knew it was true without him Krya would be in the ground with him over her grave instead of standing with them. He was in debt to him for now. If he got pissed off later all this would mean nothing. He would still slit the boy's throat without a second thought.
"Thank you so much," Jack said if to Krya or Riddick no one was sure, "It was an honor to do you such a service, sir."
The three remained silent for a moment. Krya was still holding onto Jack's arm. Riddick took note of it. They were close to one another physically and emotion. He could smell the slight arousal it cased in both of them to be that close. In the back of his mind he shrugged. It wasn't like he owned her. Still something in his mind was uneasy about the whole situation. He had learned that the face of an angel could host a devil's mind.
"Sir," said one of the guards close to him, "Aereon is waiting to speak to you in the other room."
"I'll be there in my own time," Riddick said almost growling. The man visible jumped.
"Of course sir. I'll tell her sir," he said going to the room next to them.
"Good," Riddick said then looked back to Krya and her new friend, Jack "C'mon we need to get going that is if your coming."
"Yeah yeah I'm comin' keep your pants on, for the sake of us all. Jack, I'll see you later alright," she said a grin on her face when she saw how upset he was over her words.
"Yes of course my lady," Jack said backing off and leaving looking like he suspect he was going to have to bring her back to live again soon. He gave Krya one last, long, look, and left the room.
"Nice kid. Didn't know you ran with the type," Riddick said with a low snarl.
"Yeah he's great. The type that won't run off on ya," Krya told him, as they started walking again not caring about the others around.
"He's the type that will sit in your lap and beg for a treat. Didn't know you were in need of a lap dog or I would have bought you one," he said not looking back at her.
"Careful Riddick your jealousy showing," Krya said sarcastically as she passed him to open the door.
Inside was a dark room covered with all sorts of pictures of death, darkness and destruction of every type imaginable. It was the dark surrounds that Riddick had become accustomed to in the past few months.
In the middle of the room was a white form old in her years that seemed to be intangible for the most part slowly become invisible in places of her body. Behind her was a young lady dressed in skin of animal nether looker know of. She was muscular and looked to be the older lady's body guard. It took Riddick only a moment to recognize her.
"What the hell are you doing here!?"
