((Ayushi: So sorry this took so long. I got a new computer then completely forgot to continue my story. I just got the Chronicles of Riddick Dvd so I got really into writing this story again. I promise not to make you wait that long again, I hope you all are still faithful readers!))

Riddick woke up hours after Stations visit. He smelt her all around him. Only hours ago the smell had intoxicated him. Now, he just wanted it off him as fast as he could. He got up, and went to the shower. He undressed, and turned it on. The big man rubbed a hand over his face as the water him spilling over his muscular form. The images of his dream earlier that night were still haunting him. He stood in the shower until the smell of Station was completely gone. Only then did he get out.

He dried and got redressed. Riddick walked out into the hall. The whole ship was silently, and Station was sleeping. Slowly he made his way down the halls unknowingly his feet led him to the cyrotubes. He scanned each one until he came to Krya's.

He looked her up and down. He once again felt grateful, an almost forgotten emotion in his heart.. Just looking at her warmed something inside that he was sure had died. His eyes slowly took in her now more grown up form. No matter how she tried now a days she couldn't' have passed off as a boy. She was far to female. Her breast, her hips even her face had turned into completely feminine. She was strong, lean, built like a warrior. She wasn't as muscular as Station but that wasn't someone you could fairly compare her too.

Putting a hand on the tube he leaned into it. He saw the small mark on her neck. He wondered if she still had a bit of the Necromonger in her. What if she still felt loyalty to them. He shook his head. She had never been part of that place. She had been faking it. That was why she had died for him. He took a deep breath.

"Lights off," he said. The lights dimmed then turned off completely. He took off his goggles and looked to her once more. With his uncovered, shinned eyes she looked like an angel glowing will with all the glory of heaven. He heard footsteps behind him. He turned quickly, but he knew who it was. He could smell her.

"Are you going to tell her?" Station asked with a smirk as her prepared her cryotube.

"About what?" he asked like he didn't know. Playing dumb was almost so much fun. Watching others respond to the stupidest, of comments or questions was one of the many mind games he liked to play.

"Us. Our little mating act," she took him her words cold and almost meaningless. She knew she was only talking to play with his game.

"She doesn't need to know," he told her strictly.

Krya had done everything for him, given her life for him. The least he could do was protect her from a fact that could harm her. He didn't need her knowing about his sex life, and he didn't need to know about hers. He looked over at the boy, Jack. He wondered silently what Jack had been doing to her before she had been delivered to him like a peace offering.

"Then she won't," Station said.

Riddick had a feeling she had planned that. She knew he won't let it out, because he won't want to let Krya know. Suddenly he knew there was a deeper meaning in what had happened between them. Something that in his rush of passion he had over looked somehow. He saw the smirk she had on her face as she got into the tube. He knew she knew he knew what she was planning. Riddick smirked back. What a game he had gotten himself into and what fun he was having.

Millions of miles and weeks later they landed on the Elemental planet. Riddick was the first to wake up as the 'caption'. He went over and turned on the control panel. He checked out the land below and couldn't help but be somewhat impressed by what he saw. The land below him was flawless.

Trees covered ever inch of the land. In the south on a large plant of land was a dessert, clearly visible. Then north had some mountains, the air was so clear he could see the mountains' peaks covered in snow from the snow. He got them down closer looking for somewhere to land. He couldn't see any through the dense forest. Not one runway in sight, not one sky scraper, it was a natures lover's paradise. The ocean was clean without a large boat in his sight. He was sure that millions of animals were hiding in the forest. The only thing he wasn't sure of was were the people were hiding. He smelt Aereon behind him before he heard her.

"The landing docks are hidden under ground for safety reasons," she said softly standing behind him.

Her presence made a short wind that touched Riddick's arms and back. He looked back to her his eyes filled with a violent pretense.

"What kind of creatures are we dealing with. Elemental," he asked her calmly.

He hadn't heard a lot about the Elementals. It made him suspicious right off the bat. The only things he head heard were what Aereon had told them and other things on the grape vine. Riddick had heard that the Elementals could see the future, read your mind and control the elements. He didn't know if one or any of the facts were true. All he knew was what he saw, and he saw Aereon moving in and out of sight like a gust of wind.

He knew a race with the power to do that kind of trick wasn't something he wanted to mess with if he could help it. Of course that fucker of a God had decided to make it so that his fight with a large bit of the race was going to happen rather he like it or not. Shit always seemed to be looming over him. Shit, he didn't want and didn't need.

He hadn't wanted to have to save all the assholes from that 'hell planet.' He hadn't wanted to save the universe but he had. Saved the whole fucking damn place he hated and wanted to go to hell and leave him alone. He saved the bitches that now wanted his ass for saving them. Now, he was going to fight a fucking war that was none of his business and he didn't give a fuck about, but he was fucking going to have to go.

"Strong creatures with body made out of fire. The depth of there power over the flame is unknown even to themselves. Some have been quoted as saying the could control magma even. If this is true is unlikely. For that is in truth still earth which is be on their reach of power. Fire through is far worse then most elements. Fire's power is balanced towards death so when its fury is unleashed often we get death. Only when fire is control, and centered can it bring forth life," she told him.

He looked over at her for a moment out of the corner of his eye. That wasn't reassuring. Going ageist a hundred or so creatures that mainly brought death could not be worth what they were offering. He wasn't sure what they were giving out was the real deal anyway.

The great Richard B. Riddick retiring. Going to a nice summer home on Helion 5 and living out the rest of his days without bring up one more shiv to someone's throat. Slowly growing old and dieing of a heart attack. It didn't seem to fit in with the life he had lead so far. Maybe it was possible….maybe he could rest. Maybe he could find a good girl like, Krya to settle down with. Help her to pop out a few kids for him. Watch them grow up and get their own little families. Invite the grandkids over for the holidays. Yeah right life would never be that nice to him. The universe would never leave him the fuck alone.

"So your asking me to go into an inferno and shut it down in other words?" he asked grumbling a bit. That didn't sound like a plan, and he knew he would have to come up with a better one later, mostly likely on the spot.

"Yes I'm sorry to have to ask so much of you again, but Station requested it," Aereon responded.

"Station did huh?" Riddick asked his mind turning with ideas.

Suddenly her actions last night seemed passed on more then lust. He should have sniffed out the alternative motive but his senses had been numbed by his need and her scent.

"Yes she insisted the only way to save our planet was to ask for your help," Aereon said rather pointedly and got up. She pushed in to numbers for the landing base. The coordinates came up on screen. He looked at them, then took a minutes.

He was on a ship right now with a crew of 4. One of whom was a Furyian who had fucked him for some reason another other then just sex. A Necromonger who couldn't be trusted further then he could be tossed. An old woman who had often took him right into danger for her own selfish reason, and had proven she knew what was going on better then others. Then a newly resurrected Krya. One trustworthy person in a sea of treason, not bad. He was too used to the number being zero through.

He pulled the ship right into the side of the cavern that Aereon had marked on the map. Krya came running up behind him. She grabbed his arm trying to get it off the control. He didn't move of course.

"Are you nuts Riddick? We're going crash," she screamed right into his ear making it ring.

"Be patient," he said quietly looking over at her seriously. She let go, and sat down looking ready to bounce and try and take the control if he didn't pull up soon.

"Riddick…." she said grinding her teeth.

"Don't worry precious Krya there is a hanger in the cavern," Station said standing behind her.

Krya turned and glared at the woman. Riddick didn't look at either one of them. He couldn't help the small scowl that came when he heard, Station of all people call Krya precious. He knew it was pointed at him and he cursed himself for having a weak point even if it was his first one.

"If anyone is precious it is your royal ass, Station," Krya growled at her.

She was used to a world were she had to fight to be given respect and she had earned it. The guards had feared her and the inmates left her alone. She wasn't about to start bowing down to some bitch that thought because she was a Furyan she was better then anyone else in the universe.

The ship made its way into the docks as the two fought. Riddick landed the plane and looked over at Aereon smirking.

"What no welcoming crew?" he asked opening the door.

He walked away from the ladies. He looked around the ship for something. He sniffed and went down into one of the short hallways. He grabbed the Necromonger boy from one of the room and tossed him to the wall.

"What ya doing kid?" he growled his face distorted into a scowl that could stare the devil, "Calling some of your friends to tell them where we landed. Don't you know it don't matter kid. I'm your leader. They fallow me!"

The boy almost shit his pants. Krya and Station rushed into the room. Aereon came in a few moments after calmly watching the scene. Krya looked pretty pissed.

"Riddick put him down now!" Krya yelled at him. Station turned and glared at Krya clearly annoyed.

"Krya shut up. This guys a Necromonger don't' you dare fucking forget that," Riddick said then turned back to the young man, "Now if you wanna live your going to listen close. Give me everything on you that's technical. I want everything you gotta put a battery in to use. Then when we get on this planet I'm going to check you for anything. Even if that means I gotta get out a magnet to do it."

"Actually, I will be requiring all of you to take of all your technology devices. It is illegal for people to walk about with them on this planet," Aereon said going over to them.

Riddick looked over at her skeptically and said, "You kidding me Elemental. Can't ya tell I'm not in the mood right now?"

"This is no joke Riddick. We keep to technology away from the people as best we can. You could call us primitive I guess but we see you that way. Our kind as evolved to use our minds and spirits inside of outside forces," Aereon explained. Station started taking off her belt which had a few things on it.

"Yeah better do it all of ya. These people don't take kindly to outsiders that don't fallow the rules," Station said, "Peaceful mother fuckers until you piss them off."

Riddick slammed the boy down to the ground. He groaned in pain as he watched Riddick back off. Krya went over and took him by the arm helping him up.

"Like hell we're going to do something as stupid as that. I aint' giving up my gun for nothing," Krya demanded looking over to Riddick for support. She was surprised when she saw him taking of his gun and taking things out of his pockets, "Riddick!"

"When in Rome do as the Roman's do," he said turning to her, a pile of his junk lay behind him. She growled then did the same. Jack was a little more hesitant and took some time to believe it. Finally the group was ready to get off that damn ship.

"Thank you all for accommodating our unique customs," Aereon said leading them down the rap and onto a world that would be so different from theirs that they could never understand it fully. On the way down the ramp Riddick went over and took Krya by the arm. He put his mouth in so close that she could feel his lips moving and his breath on her ear.

"From now on your with me. You stay with me at all times. Day and night. Your sleeping in my room, your eating when I eat, your even shitting when I'm shitting ya hear me Krya. I don't know what the fuck were going to find here but I don't wanna have to go looking for your ass when it looking for us," Riddick said seriously as they walked. Krya nodded.

"I'm with you Riddick," she said then walked slowly ahead of him.
