Dark Covers All: Chapter 6:
Shinku left Riddick with Fry and headed over to where Shazza was working on a sand cat.
"Need help?" Shinku asked politely.
"Yeah that would be great." She replied great fully.
Shinku then began to help her repair the sand cat.
"So I see Riddick taking a liking to you."
"What do you mean?"
"Come on girl I see the way he be looking at ya from behind." Shazza said smiling slightly.
"I have no idea what you are talking about."
"Remember when you told Johns to come look at Ares?"
"Yes what about it?"
"Well as he got closer Riddick started to growl. Now I know normal men wouldn't growl out loud, but even Jack was looking at him confused as why he was growling. It dawned on me why he was growling like a panther protecting its mate when Johns backed up a good 10 feet away from you that was when he stopped growling." Shazza said finishing what she had observed.
"Well you got me there." Shinku said while handing Shazza another tool.
"Besides I could tell you really like him too."
"WHAT!!" Shinku exclaimed blushing red.
"Now don't you lie to me I could tell you've been checking him out and just between you and me he's worth checking." Shazza whispered snickering at Shinku's red face.
"Who's worth checking out?" A deep voice said behind them.
Both Shinku and Shazza both turned around to see Riddick standing behind them. Shinku's face went redder and quickly turned back around and continued to look at the tools to find the tool Shazza needed.
"Nobody Riddick just having a girl chat. Hey could you do me a favor? I think I left a tool on the ship can you got get it?"
Riddick grunted and went back to the ship to get what Shazza asked for, but instead hide in the shadow of the building about 2 feet away from them.
Shazza had turned back around and looked at Shinku before teasing," Well that was close wasn't it? Could your face turn any redder?" Shinku couldn't help, but turn redder at Shazza's shameless teasing.
"so what if I have an attraction to him."
"What kind of attraction? Sexual or animal or love?"
"Umm…kind of all three…." Shinku said quietly.
"Finally the truth comes out. So how do you plane on seducing him?"
Riddick then began to growl not knowing who "who" was. Suddenly the thought of it being Johns sprang into his head causing him to growl at the thought of Shinku being with Johns. If it was him then Riddick would have to ghost him sooner. Shinku was going to belong to one person and one person only Richard Badass Riddick.
Riddick continued to listen to the women's conversation.
"I am not going to seduce Riddick."
"Really because I thought I saw him getting cozy with Fry." Shazza said picking up the tools since they finished the sand cat. Shinku eyes narrowed at the ground and a sort of animal possession came through her thinking of Fry and Riddick together.
"Calm down girl I am just kidding beside the way you tensed up proved I am right."
"Your mean." Shinku said getting to her feet before offering her hand to Shazza's and helping her up.
"Only to the people who won't admit their feelings, who are my friends." Shinku smiled before she heard foot steps approaching. They turned to see Riddick walking over to them.
"Couldn't find it." He said looking at Shazza.
"Its alright we managed to fix it without it right Shinku?"
"Yeah we did."
"Well better go tell Fry and Johns that the sand cat is operational, but just make sure Shinku why don't you start it up?"
Shinku nodded as Shazza turned to leave and she then headed over to the sand cat with Riddick following her. Shinku got in to the driver seat while Riddick climbed in the back and stood behind her.
"You know I just learned something today?" Riddick said.
"What?" Shinku asked curiously.
" I learned that some has an attraction to me."
"Really?" Shinku replied.
"Yes and she seem to think that she doesn't need to seduce me. mind explaining that Shinku?" Riddick then leaned down next to Shinku's ear.
"Mind explaining what?"
"Why you feel the need to not seduce me?"
"You heard our conversation?" Shinku asked turning to face Riddick.
"Yes I heard every single word of the conversation after I left. So now I have a question for you."
"What is it?"
"Will I be the first man to lay claim to you or were there others?"
"Only one other if you mean loved or if you mean sex wise none."
"What happened to the other man you loved?"
"His name was John Lloyd and as for what happened to him I can't remember."
"Can't remember or Won't remember."
"I think both, but why did you want to know?" Shinku asked.
"Because I told you before I want to make you mine and only mine." Riddick replied as he placed his hands on her shoulders moving her hair from the right side and placing it to the left. Riddick then began to leave soft kisses on her neck and his hands began to travel down her arms until the reached her hands. He enter twined his fingers with her fingers before pulling her hands back with his.
"You know we aren't all going to get off this planet alive."
"I am going to get as many people as I can off this planet Riddick."
"Really even Johns because I don't think he'll even cut me loose like her promised."
"Except Johns he's an asshole that thinks he is bad, but is nothing except a crack addict."
"Try morphine addict."
"Still the same deal never knows when he is going to get his next fixes."
"True, but let's not talk about him."
"Alright. Riddick you might want to stop."
"Why?"
"Johns and everyone else is coming and I haven't started the sand cat."
Riddick nodded letting go of Shinku and standing up behind her and started the sand cat as soon as everyone came into view. Shinku then went up to Fry and said," Everything is good, but I have to get Ares."
"Great bring the thing that is possibly going to eat us." Johns said sarcastically.
"No I think Ares would only eat your ass Johns though I think you'll give him indigestion and so help Johns if you hurt him I will your fucking ass six feet under so you dead corpse can be eaten by the others." Shinku nearly roared in Johns face.
"I think you need to learn your damned place." Johns growled reaching for his shotgun, but before he could draw it out he felt a shiv underneath his chin he looked to see who was holding it and to his surprise it was Riddick.
"This doesn't involve you Riddick."
"Actually it does Johns if you touch what is mine I will kill you without the slightest hesitation and I will enjoy it."
"Really then why are protecting her."
"Oh I am not its just that right now your on my shit list and I don't want her having all the fun kicking your sorry white ass all across the desert sand without letting me have some fun."
Johns gulped silently and watched as Shinku turned to leave to retrieve her jacket. Riddick removed the shiv from his throat before jumping onto the sand cat and waited for Shinku to return. Shinku arrived at air craft and opened it up once in side she noticed that Ares was already up and waiting for her.
Shinku smiled before grabbing her coat and putting it on and watched as Ares jumped on to her shoulder and underneath the shoulder of her coat protecting it from the sun.
"Come on Ares lets go see if daddy is done scaring the shit out of Johns." Shinku whispered to Ares.
Ares screeched in response and so Shinku headed out and back toward the sand cat. Once she was there Riddick held out her hand and helped her into the sand cat. Shazza then sped off back toward the crash site in order to pick up the power cells they needed. Shinku sat down next to Riddick and as they arrived back at the crash site everyone began to het off and head toward where the power cells were at. Riddick stopped Shinku from getting off by grabbing her arm and pulling her back into him.
Riddick then gave her a growl before giving her a hard kiss on the lips. Shinku returned the kiss just as hard and backed up in to Riddick. Riddick hand went to hips and started to grind in to her. Shinku moaned into the kiss however it was cut short thanks to Ares screeching slightly letting them know that the other were on there way. Riddick gave Shinku one last kiss before getting off and going to help the other.
