Pitch Black: I think I'm in love

Who's Afraid of The Dark

As I poked my head out to the cargo hold I looked around seeing the monsters that was hiding in the darkness and felt a grin spread over my lips as I felt Shadow cackle in my mind. She was somewhat looking forward to facing one of those reapers but I shoved her wants down for the moment I had a job to do. I felt her pout as she curls back up and quits down. I give a sigh as I move out into the opening the glow of the others following me as I felt Riddick step up next to me.

I look over to him and smile. I saw his lip twitch as he looks over to me but keeps his face forward leading the way to what was left of the ship I had taken off my seal and gave it to Jack to hold on to it seemed to clam her down some. my ear twitch as I heard a sound to our left and felt my tail sway behind me but Riddick didn't show signed of an attack so I left it.

I saw the shop not to far and as we came up on it Riddick stood looking in the opening with his goggles off. Jones come up to his side looking the same way trying to see as well I snorted in mirth at the thought. but listen anyways.

"what it look like?" Jones asked Riddick.

Riddick gave him a side glance and I saw his lip twitch again and look back to the ship. I felt my head tilt till I heard his reply.

"looks clear" his voiced still looking ahead.

Jones nodded and took maybe two steps to the ship when one of the reapers jumped out and into the air coming close to taking Jones with it now I felt a pout come to my lips as I lay on the ground at the thought that it missed.

We was all on our bellies or backs as the reaper flew off I was the first one to push myself up.

"You said clear" Jones hissed at Riddick glaring at him

"I said looks clear" come Riddick's reply and you could hear the humor in his tone.

There was a poise from Jones before he spoke again.

"Well what does it look like now?" he asked.

I wanted to laugh as I saw Riddicks head look up and to the opening of the ship. He looks back at Jones when he replied.

"Looks Clear" He Said with humor lighting his voice.

I had to snicker at it as we all got back to our feet and walking to the ship this time without being attacked.

As everyone was doing there own thing getting everything that they thought would help I was looking around just thinking and preparing myself for the fight it was sure to turn into to get to the skid and taking in the last of the quiet.

I sighed as I turned to rejoin the others when I was grabbed and slammed into the wall my eyes jerked up to see Clint blocking the exit with a knife in his hand.

"what the fuck are you doing asshole" I snraled at him.

Getting to my feet feeling my nails hardening. He smirks at me taking a step closer to me.

"Been waiting to get you alone time to show you your place before I hand you over to them scientist" his smirk turns into a nasty grin as his eyes move over my body.

"I'll fucking gut you if you even try to touch me you weak waste of space." I growl lowly at him as I watch him waiting for him to make a wrong move or move tworse me.

His grin widen as a mad look enters his eyes.

"No you won't you don't want the other to hate you" He laughs out like he knew everything.

"As far as they know I'm a good cop just bringing a murder back to prison." he smiles as he walks closer to me paying no mind to my growl that has now gotten louder.

"Is that right Clint you think you know shit about me and what I will do huh?" I asked him as I stood my ground looking down at the short man.

"Oh I know I do sweetheart your soft hearted." he grins at me as he reaches forward to touch me.

The snarl that tears itself from my throat ecos off the walls and startles the merc in front of me as I grab the hand that was going to touch me. As my fingers wraps around the offending appendage snaps and pops sounded in the room as Clint lets you a cry of pain.

He drops to his knees still trying to take his hand from mine and I grin down at his pain as I lean closer to him whispering in his ear.

"You know nothing about me and you are nothing to me, the dirt on my shoes means more than you do to me." I let go of his hand and watch as he holds it to him and grins at him flashing my K9's at him and watch as he shivers.

I turn my back to him as starts to walk out the room when I feel the air around me move and quickly move just as he tries to plunge the knife in my back. He stumbles as he misses his mark and a roar of anger leaves me and I lunge at him knocking the knife from his hand and kicking him in the back of his knee. Hearing it snap and the howl of pain after was like music to my ears.

I look at the worm on the floor as he tries to move away from me. I pick up his knife and grabs his hand placing it on the wall and then impelling his knife throw his hand and into the wall. I then move to the exit stopping as I reach the doorway and looks over my shoulder and smirks.

"I guess you was right I'm not going to kill you I'm just one going to help you either." I told him and walked out leaving him to the reapers. I hear his pleas and crys fade as I make my way back to the others.

Once I reach them I slide next to Shazza and places my hand on her shoulder, she jumps and looks over to me I smiles at her and she smiles back.

"Never told ya thanks fer saving me life back there Raven." she said to me and hugs me whispering a thank you to me.

I didn't say anything and just hugged her back and pats her back. She pulls away and smiles watery at me then we move closer to the others who was at the opening of the ship, it looked like they have found tubing that would produce light once they got it working.

I felt Riddick move to stand next to me looking at me, I looked up meeting his eyes and we talk through our eyes. I see a smile barely there smile cross his lips as he pulls me with him over to where the others are standing.

He lets go of my arm and walks ahead where he's met by fry as he starts telling her where to put everyone and where he wants the light. I walk over to Jack and hugs her, she is shivering as she wraps her arms around me. I rub her back and she seems to calm down. she lets me go and smiles up at me and runs over to Ali standing next to him talking quietly.

I sigh and move back to the front standing just slightly behind Riddick.

"Check you cuts these guys knows our blood now." He Said as we started moving.

As we moved away from the crashed there was a dying scream from within everyone stopped and looked wide eyed back at the crash. Till they heard a deep rolling laugh and looked back at Riddick.

"Who's afraid of the dark?" he mocked and turned around moving out forcing us to move with him.

I looked back at the crashed once more and smirked before moving after the group, feeling like a weight was just lifted from me knowing that Clint was died.

The last thought running throw my head was 'one dome one to go'.
