((Ayushi: This thing is just jumping out of my fingers. I hope your jumping out of your seats in excitement yelling another chapter!!!! YAH!!! I hope you all found that last chapter informative. I know their hasn't been a lot of action I hope you have enjoyed the dialog. I try to be as descriptive as possible. I know a lot of the ideas are kind of odd but I hope you get it. This had been the funniest story to write!))
"Your highness maybe you should tell him the particulars of how you got your name and of your brother's untimely death," Aereon piped up again.
"Oh that old tale. Thought everyone was over that one," Queen Station said smirking, "See I was with my mom when she was giving birth, she had just literally just had my little brother. Then these fuck heads come in like they own the place. They cut my brother out of my mom and take his umbilical cord and put it around his neck. I was 4 at the time and yelling my head off scared, shitless.
They cut my mommy's throat right under the jaw. Almost cut it off but not all the way. So its hanging there her eyes still open looking at me. The look from those eyes still haunts me at night. The oldest one looked at me and said to kill me so I couldn't have any more bastard children that would interfere. They took a shiv to my throat, and cut," she said and pulled down her scarf to show them all a thick hardened scar where the cut had once been then she continued,
"They then tossed our bodies onto the deck of the station we were on. A few doctors found us a few moments after they left. The men had been bad cutters and I was still breathing. Doctors took me, and fixed me up only a moment before I bled to death. They hadn't cut anything important, thankfully. The docs asked my name. I told them and they said that was a dangerous name and called me Station instead. The docs raised me but then I got into trouble. I guess you know the rest," she finished pulling her scarf back up.
"What are you saying?" Riddick asked one more time.
"God Riddick are you really that stupid? She saying she's a Furyan like you," Krya said sounding annoyed. He shot a glance back at her.
"How did you know about that?" he asked her. He had found out at Iman's place a while back, but she hadn't been there.
"Aereon visited the planet right after you left. She had come looking for you, or the rumor of you. That's right when the Necromongers started their little conquest. No one believed her at first. Thought she was talking bull even me and Iman, but then she started telling everyone about the Furyan race, and we talked to her about it. Told her about you and all. Figured out you were one," Krya said.
He looked at her with a nasty snarl creeping onto his lips. He felt like he had been left out in the dark so to speak. Everyone had known but him. True he had bee on another planet at the time, but Iman or Krya could have found a way to tell him.
It took a moment for her first word to surface in his mind. When they did he turned back to Station. She couldn't be. Could she. Her story seemed legit. He looked into her green eyes. He couldn't remember had his eyes been green or had it been brown. Too much had happened between the time he had got the Shine, and now to remember little details like that.
"Is it true?" he asked her softly his voice barely coming out of his rumbling chest.
"Yes, I am a Furyan as well. We are the last," she said holding her ground.
She watched him slowly come closer. He stopped a few feet away again. He sniffed her again. His hand went to his goggles and he slowly took them off. He looked at her closer. The room was dark enough not to hurt his sensitive vision. She stayed stone faced as she saw his eyes. Only a little bit of curiosity played at the corner of her own eyes.
He took her in slowly devouring her with his eyes. He had never even dreamt that such a creature could have survived. A small, amused smile danced on his lips. He backed up, and then looked to Aereon.
"I'll do it," he said quickly and starkly.
"What?" Aereon asked a little surprised.
"I'll help with your cause," he told her once more.
"Oh I'm so glad. In return we will do all in our power to fulfill our promise to you," she said smiling gleefully like a school girl on her first date.
"You sure about this?" Krya asked.
"What other opinion do I have?" he asked coldly looking over at Krya
Something was different in the way he gazed at her now. Before their had been an unspoken kindness or a kindred ship behind those frozen pools, now they had become hard to her. Not as indifferent as they were to others, but not the same either. It broke something deep inside her to see them like that. She could feel like the slight build up of tears forming deep in her eyes as she held his eyes gaze.
He was lost to her now. Her protector, her friend, her Riddick had been taken away, and she knew by whom as well. She gave a quick thought to the girl behind Riddick. Station had taken him. If she knew it or not. She had in a moment become the most important thing in his life. He might not even know it yet, but she had taken Krya's place in his cold heart.
"None I guess," Krya said quietly. Aereon looked over at her with a knowing sympathetic glance. She could sense it too.
"Great then it's settled. I help the Elementals bring peace to their land, and they help me get the universe back to orders, and all that," he said looking over at Aereon, "Deal?"
"Deal," Station said from behind him. He turned back and looked at her a small smile on his lips at seeing her take command.
"Fine lets get this done," Riddick said then called, "Guards!"
Half a dozen elite solders with weapons of different kinds came in. They all looked rather stunned at being called. They looked to Riddick and bowed down to the floor getting on knee.
"Arrest them," he commanded motioning to the Elemental and Station.
Aereon gave a gasp as the solders went over and took her hands. Station growled at him, and resisted the guards. He looked her straight in the eye. Something passed between them in under a second. She continued struggling, but finally at a few long moments she stopped long enough to let them get handcuffs on her. Aereon stood still watching the men chain her up.
"Guards leave us now. I'll bring the prisoners out myself. Gather all, on my order, into the meeting room. I have some important information to share," he said in a imposing growl. The soldiers raced out to do as they were told without a word.
"What's this all about Riddick?" Station demanded. She had stopped struggling but he was under the impression she could get out at any moment even if her hands were cuffed behind her back.
"You think their going to let me stroll on down to the Elemental planet without a good reason too. You want me to blow my cover before we even start this shit?" he said a nasty glint in his eyes. She looked restrained, but inside he knew she was far from it. It aroused him on so many, different levels.
"So what are you planning?" Aereon lightly asked.
"You'll see," he said.
The guards choose that moment to come back.
"Sir we have done as you have request they will be ready within moments," one braver guard told him. He nodded.
"You can go," he told them. It their was one thing he liked about Necromongers it would have to be that they were always efficient.
The soldiers quickly left again not wanting to be in their longer then they had to be.
"Come on girls we got a meeting to attend," he said going over to Krya and holding out his arm like a gentleman. She glared at his foolish attempt to be courteous, but took his arm anyway. They walked out the door with Aereon and Station both chained and looking unperturbed by it behind them.
Riddick pulled his goggles over his eyes. not to hid them from the light for the rooms were very dim, but to hid the fierce telling glance behind them. He knew the games were on and was looking forward to kicking their asses senseless then resting. Either in death or in a nice county home on Helion 6.
