AN: I own nothing except the plot and the Characters that aren't from PB or TCOR. And you'd pronounce Shaen's name like Shane...Is was my Jedi name a long time ago...I forgot how I made it but it always looked like a misspelling of Shane...so that's how it's pronounced.
"No." Riddick said, before Mercuri got the chance to explain. "We're done shipping slaves back home. If that's the only reason you called us here then our visit is officially over." He stood up and was about to leave when the sound of the front door being slammed as well as various crashes met everyone's ears.
"Mercuri?" Jack questioned, looking at her friend for an explanation.
"Shaen." Mercuri answered simply. She glared at Riddick, who was blocking the door and said, "Sit."
Riddick growled but finally sat, with the encouragement of Jack. "Who is Shaen?"
Mercuri didn't answer because her answer would've been pointless, as Shaen had just opened the door. "This is Shaen."
Everyone's eyes fell on the figure that stood just outside the doorway.
"Shaen. Come in here." Mercuri called.
Instead of entering the room the figure ran down the hallway. In the silent house, they could hear Shaen's footfalls stop and the sound of a box on the wall opening. The lights dimmed even more and Mercuri sighed.
"Of course. The lights." She muttered, loud enough that only Riddick and Jack could hear her. This caused Jack to raise an eyebrow. "Shaen, sweetie I'm sorry I forgot. Come on in here now." She called down the hallway.
Once again, a figure appeared in the door way. This time Shaen walked into the room. It took a while for everyone's eyes to adjust, but when they finally did, they were staring at what appeared to be a boy. One that was no more than fifteen. He was wearing black cargo shorts that came down to his knees, an extra large black shirt with the word Aiden on it, and some dark gray skate shoes. His hair was cut to his chin and it was bone straight. Shaen's bangs were swept to one side (emo style) and a black beanie covered the rest of his deep red hair. His right arm had almost thirty rubber bracelets on it, his left arm had one ball chain bracelet on it, and he wore two necklaces. One of them being a ball chain necklace, the other one being a strange pendant.
"You're Shaen?" Jack questioned, getting up and walking towards the boy. She noticed that Shaen's body was covered with multiple cuts, especially around his knees and forearms. "Who did that to you?" She asked, stopping a few feet from the boy and pointing towards the rather long, dirty looking cut on his leg.
Shaen looked from the strange woman that was asking about the blood onher leg to Mercuri. She ignored Jack and instead walked over to Mercuri and pointed from the lights, to Riddick, back to the lights, then to herself , then to Jack and finally to the cut on her leg. The entire time she did this, She was making a clicking noise in her throat.
"What the hell did he just say?" Riddick asked, walking towards them.
"She." Mercuri corrected. "Shaen is a girl."
