HARM NONE: Chapter Six-
Riddick sat in Paris' chair, drinking his alcohol and watched the scene
before him play out. He watched as Zeke shot the stranger in the head. 'Hmmm...thats
means he'll have to dig another hole. I wonder what that cute little white girl
wants. She's got a nice body. Bet she knows how to use it too. In more ways than
one. Muscular for a woman. No doubt she works out. Doesn't use the damn
metabolism controls and dietary supplements like all these other fat lazy
humans. Thats a true body. Probably knows how to fight. She's got the grace.
Moves good. Love that ass. And those tits. Damn! Better stop thinking bout that
fore I get a hard on the size of Johns' ego. Pretty smart though. Know she
obviously knew where I was in that boneyard. Fucking brave. Wasn't even scared
of me. Not even when I had my shiv to her throat. A throat I'd love to run my
teeth over. maybe when I get some time alone i can explore her assesses more.'
Riddick watched as Zeke dragged the sled with the stranger mans body on it to
its grave. Then he followed Zeke. Hiding behind the pentacles.

Harm was running back to the crash site even before she heard the gun shots.
There he was. She spotted Riddick adn ran to his side. He knew it was her. He
knew her scent. 'Now how did she get back here so fast? She had to have been
running before those shots were fired. Obviously somethins up.' Riddick thought
not even looking at her. Harm looked down at what was left of Zeke. Blood was
splashed all over the entrance to the tunnel. "Damn I didn't get here in
time. Wonder how many more of us'll survive." Harm hadn't realized she'd
said that outloud till Riddick finally looked up at her. "Run Riddick.
Johns is comin. No doubt he's already here." Thats when Shazza lifted the
tarp and spotted the two. Riddick turned around slowly and looked at Harm. Then
he took off running. Harm didn't know what Shazza was thinking. Did she figure
Harm was working with Riddick? What? At the moment it didn't matter. Harm knew
what was about to happen. She knew Johns was about to recapture Riddick. Only
question is should she let it play out. 'Guess I'll just have to find out.' Harm
thought as she began running after Riddick. Shazza was following behind her. By
the time Harm reached Riddick Johns already had him on the ground beating him.
"No."Harm whispered. Then she watched as Shazza joined in . "No!
Leave him alone! Stop! Fry get Shazza away!" As Harm said this Fry started
pulling Shazza backwards away from Riddick. Harm went after Johns but it as
useless. Harm watched as Shazza gave Riddick a good kick to the head. Knocking
him unconscious.

"That girls a bit strange to me. You know. The cute on with the silver hair
and that eyebrow ring." Johns said to Fry outside the wrecked HG.
"Harm." Fry exclaimed letting Johns know who he was referriing to.
"Harm. Thats her name? Her real name? Damn now I really think somethings up
with her. Someone with that kinda name can only be trouble."
"What makes you think she's trouble? Its not the name I know that."
"There's somethin bout her. A feelin I got."
"This feeling wouldn't happen to be in your pants would it?" Fry said
incredulously. She knew Harm was a beautiful young girl and she didn't want Harm
to have to go through the same shit she herself had gone through in life. Johns
just passed the comment by.
"When I woke up from cryo I saw her standin there in front of Riddick's
chamber. Just lookin at him. Then there was that little act with Owens. What
kinda sweet innocent kid can do that and not feel a bit of remorse? And in the
boneyard. She was right behind me then suddenly she wasnt there. I didn't buy
that exploring crap. And of course when she took off runnin back here before
Zeke got it. Shazza said the girl was standin there not one foot away from
Riddick. Then she was trying to keep us away from Big Evil"
"She was trying to keep you from beating the shit outta him." Fry
broke in.
"It just doesn't add up. She's too quiet. Does't talk to nobody. Hell we
dont even know her last name. Much less like we wanna know her first one. It all
just adds up to a shitload of trouble."
"What are you saying Johns? Just cause she's quiet, likes to keep to
herself and does things that you don't think are normal shes not a good person?
Whats your point?"
"My point, Carolyn, is I think the little bitch and Riddick got something
goin. Can't prove it and dont know what it is but I got a feelin and it aint
good."
Fry thought for awhile on this. Sure she figured Harm was a bit weird somehow
but what was in it for her if she was hooked up with Riddick? It just doesnt
make sense. Fry looked over at Johns and noticed him looking around,
concentrating on something. "Whats wrong now Johns?"
"Well speaking of Harm, where is the little angel?"
