Chapter 1
Riddick sat watching the dispirited Necromongers go about their daily life. "Lord marshall?" questioned the first commander as he strode up the stairs to the throne.
Riddick grunted "Yea Vaako?" he had become friends with Vaako in the short time he had been their leader "What do you want this time?". Vaako frowned "Well we are now your people and yet we still drift in space...does the campaign continue? What would you have us do Riddick you must start making decisions!" he growled the last part out, Riddick and Vaako were very alike even though they would never admit it.
"Im not going to blow planets up and give people an ultimatum like Convert or die...You know your faith is nothing to me" he spoke through gritted teeth and rolled his eyes as an elemental appeared next to him "Your Aereons apprentice i take it?" he growled causing the girl to flinch in fear.
The elemental kneeled submissivley "Lord Riddick...Aereon has left me in her place she passed early this morning and had one last thing for me to tell you...will you hear it?" she said very quickly and quietly seeming to fear the Furyan lord would lash out.
Riddick blinked and Vaako closed his eyes for both had come to like the annoying old elemental and felt twinges of pain at her death "Speak what would she have me hear?" Riddick said in a softer tone and the elemental looked up "I wont hurt you girl...spit it out".
"My name is Hayley, lord marshall and Aereon wanted you to know someone will be coming here soon and she says you should hear the person out before you jump to harsh conclusions...She also said that the first commander would vouch for this person if he remembers his life before the faith" she downcast her eyes as she felt Vaako's settle coldly on her "Forgive me lord Vaako but the words are from Aereons heart not mine..." suddenly the elemental grinned "dont kill the messenger".
Vaako blinked "You or the aparent messenger who i will know?" he asked shocked that the elemental could have humor at a time like this.
Hayley looked up and grinned "Both" she said then bowed and glided away.
Riddick sat on his throne gloomy thoughts running through his head as he pondered the topic of the messenger he shook his head slightly as Vaako cleared his throat. "Lord marshall? orders for the Necromongers?" he questioned and didnt flinch as Riddick's cold glare washed over him "You have to do something we cant sit out here forever", Riddick growled menacingly still thinking about Aereons message he looked up at Vaako "Fine set co-ordinates for the nearest big world but we arent assaulting it were going to ask if people want to convert and we need supplies" he instantly went back to his gloomy thoughts. Vaako shook his head "As you say milord" he went to tell the Necro's of the orders.
A small ship was allowed to dock on the Basilica ship and the Necro gaurds strangely did nothing to stop the black clothed woman who walked down the halls from the docking bays and nobody stopped her as she walked straight up to the throne and threw the hood of her cloak back to reveal dark red hair spilling over her shoulders and young yet wise grey eyes staring at Riddick. "Suprise, suprise Richard B. Riddick, how long ive waited till i could enter your life" she said and smiled as his cold eyes widened slightly at the blades she flashed at him from her belt. "Furyan ceremonial Shivs..." he said quietly and fingered the identical knives at his belt.
Vaako walked into the throne room and gasped, Necro's near him turned suprised as for once they heard the commander off guard "Anna..." he said as he strode towards the throne and picked up the smiling woman who had turned at the sound of her name. He twirled her around then set her back on the ground and coughed then set his stern Necro demeanour back in place "Hello Anna.." he said and shot cold glares at everyone staring at him shocked till they turned away.
Riddick was frowning at Vaako "You sure your a Necro?" he asked and Vaako rolled his eyes. Anna laughed and hugged Vaako who was again caught off guard "Oh Vaako ive missed you since when have you been a Necro? i thought you were dead!" she said the last part angrily.
Riddick blinked "ok slow down your Anna...hes my first commander...you know him...What the fuck is going on here!" he growled angry that he didnt understand the situation "Ok sit down we all need to talk...i take it your the messenger Aereon was talking about?". Vaako stayed standing as he looked at Anna he felt eyes glaring daggers at his back "I must go Milord" he said quietly then so only Riddick could hear "Dame Vaako saw that exchange and i fear problems now for my and your health" he walked stiffly out of the throne room and was instantly assaulted by his ranting wife till they heard a womans shriek and sobbing.
Vaako walked down the hall with his arm around his sobbing wife when they got to their chambers and he stripped off his armor she flung herself at his chest and attempted to claw through his black shirt "Away from me woman" he said roughly shoving her away "You act like a jealous wife but i never have seen love in your eyes" he raged inside but said the words with deady quietness.
Dame Vaako glared icy daggers at him and cradled her bruised cheek from earlier in the hall "I saw you with her Vaako! She has stolen you and all the love you never could give me!" she screeched at him and tried to claw at him again. Vaako sent her tumbling to the ground with a shove "I gave you love you never recognised, i gave you affection, i gave you my life i even let you rule my power at times and you attack me for embracing an old friend she is only a friend yet you act like i have had another lover or that i denied you a want" he closed his eyes and slowed his breathing down "I never have denied you anything My wife not my love, not the power my status gives you i even went as far as to almost kill a lord marshall for you..never once have you returned any of the love i give or even given me back the slightest thanks in return for gifts, power or affection" he sat on the end of the bed looking down at her beautiful form "Get up from the ground My love your anger hides your beauty".
Dame Vaako glared at him and touched a hand to the cut on her cheek "You cut me!" she gasped and scrambled up and over to her mirror noticing the cut wasnt very deep but was very obvious "You scar my face!". Vaako growled and got up walking over to her and touching her cheek softly this time and without the pain and anger "I apologize for hurting you my love i regret striking out but give me reason and you can be certain it will b repeated...you still do not know your place after all these years" he looked at the anger in her eyes "do not attempt to kill me beloved or to kill Riddick...I do not wish to lose you.." with that he walked out of the chambers not bothering to dress in his armor he pulled on a Necro robe and heade back to the throne room.
