General Warnings for this fanfic. This is SLASH. MalexMale. Pairing is Riddick/Naruto. May or may not have explicit content. There shall be Explicit language. Cussing and minor character death. The setting will be in Riddick's verse or more accurately, Chronicles of Riddick's verse.
OOC Kyuubi :D and a twisting of the original manga and movie's plotline. AU.
It'll have blood and death because my muse is made up of gore. and occasionally angst. v_v By Explicit content I am referring to the sexing up of one Naruto Uzumaki by One OMNOM rawr Richard B. Riddick.
Uhm. I should really honestly be focusing on my zombie fic... but I'm inclined to be an overachieving idiot every now and then.
I dedicate this fic to the authors before me who thought up and wrote for this pairing. I'll only mention the writers here on fanfictiondotnet and urge whomever hasn't read them to check 'em out now. Because honestly, they probably did this better than me. Don't not read my fic! I'm just saying!
HoT aGaiNsT a WaLL wrote an epic(!) Riddick/Naruto titled Pitch Dark.
and an awesome oneshot called Whimsical Fox was published to the site way back in 2009, by Age of the Geek Baby.
I'm also gonna mention, that there are some really nice Harrypotter/Pitchblack Slash fics out there.
Prologue
You don't actually love me.
"Kit, you don't know that for certain."
"yeah, I do. You think it's all one big joke. Humans, emotions. It's your own personal little satire. You don't love me. You're a fucking demon. You don't even feel love."
A deep rumbling sigh and a woosh of rank warm breath.
"well." the rumbling voice concedes.
"..." the boy sprawled on the ground is silent.
"Hmmmm-aybe I think you just need a wake up call."
"Ahaha!" the human child laughs then chokes on a sob. "a fucking wake up- what do I need a wake up call for? I'm already dead! There's no point."
"Maybe..."
"No." cobalt eyes sharpen on the giant red beast before him. "No maybes, not this time. I'm dead. I saw that hit coming. Too fast, I felt the bones in my rib crack into my chest, I went flying, okay. I'm dead this time, kyuubi. There's no coming back from this."
And the demon opened it's maw and huffed a laugh. Glittering teeth glistening with saliva in the dark hang above the boy. He's not afraid.
"Were you always this pathetic? Oh a speeding uchiha hit me! I'm dead! I'm dead! There's no way possible that I could be alive! I'm deaaaaaa-!"
"Shut the fuck up!" Infuriated at the giant fox, the boy opens his eyes fully and a glow permeates the darkness as he scrambles to his feet and yells up at the keening demon.
"aaaaaaaaaa-d!" the elongated snout snaps shut with a succinct click. Ruby eyes luminescent in the dark peer down at the small human boy trembling furiously in the blackness between his forepaws.
"Kyuubi! Fucking hell! What the fuck's with you? I'd think you'd be happy, you get to transcend now right? Go back to your happy little demonic realm and never step foot back on this planet. That was the seal's contract, your punishment and my fucking curse. Now leave me alone!"
The demon notes the slight glow around the boy with steady acceptance.
"...kit."
"WHAT?"
"I can't leave."
"WHY THE FUCK NOT?"
"...Think about it."
The boy is fed up with everything, from the faintly amused gleam in the red demon's eyes to the ache of his heart in his chest.
Too much, too much death in a single day of existence. Sakura-chan, Kakashi-sensei, Hinata-chan, who wasn't even supposed to be there. And cruel eyed Sasuke, no, dead eyed Sasuke.
"You're saying I'm not dead."
"You are not dead, kit."
And the boy doesn't know what to feel. Relief? Disappointment? What. What would be the appropriate response here?
"Everything I said, promised, all the goals, my important people." He mumbled, stumbling around to turn his back to the demon.
The demons eyes inexplicably soften and he lowers his massive head til one wet fox nose is pressed to the boy's back. The warmth does little to distract the boy from his inner turmoil. He leans back and closes his eyes.
"Kyuu-bi... Do you want to leave? I can die... I can just die and you can leave."
"Yes. I want to leave very much, little kit." the words mumbled from between rows of razor sharp teeth fill the boys eyes with tears. And he feels relieved.
"Okay." he whispers.
Ruby eyes narrow. A firm look appraises the human boy.
"Demons cannot love. little kit. But if I could, if I could..." the words are warm and soft. The breath exhaled over the slouched defeated boy ruffles golden spikes of hair around a narrow face.
Perhaps he'll be hated by the one human he cares about, the demon does not mind though. His little kit is foolish, and so very young. He doesn't know how to take very good care of himself, so the demon does not want to leave him entirely, the demon comes to a decision.
"Naruto. Uzumaki." The boy flinches and spins on his heel. Never had he heard the demon call him by his birth name. Large blue eyes widen up at the demon.
He gulps at the focused narrow ruby eyes slanted down at him.
"You have given your life to me little human. I will do with it as I will. And I will you to live."
Naruto eyes slowly narrow as he digests those words. Kyuubi does not give him time to protest.
"I will never forget you Naruto... kit. I will leave you to yourself, with a part of me. This is a gift. Take care of yourself, don't despair, grow stronger in the knowledge that you have gained the acknowledgment of this kyuubi."
Kyuubi drew himself up on his hind legs, his tails rose around him and his fore legs rested in the darkness on either side of the glowing boy. When he spoke his words commanded attention, booming in the blackness. The boy was motionless and he felt inclined to listen, despite his growing horror.
"Forget, your life before. You have given it up and it does not matter anymore. You will sleep til all the worlds have changed and awaken when you are ready to face them. When you do wake up, things will be different. What I am giving you will change you in quite a few ways. You will become hanyou, a half breed. You will live much longer than any other human, you will be stronger, faster. Your body will not grow during your hibernation, it will hardly grow when you wake up either. Demons grow slow, live long, and die well. Perhaps, if you live well, you'll earn transcendence yourself and join me in the demonic realm. I think, it'd be nice to see you again. How about making that one of your future goals, eh kit?"
Naruto glared at kyuubi and opened his mouth to shriek angrily at the demon. Kyuubi cut him off before he could start by shoving his nose into Naruto's chest and pushing him onto his back.
"This is not open for debate. You are my kit and I have decided to direct your future. Whether it is good or bad will depend entirely on you. Now sleep, and while you are asleep you will change. Your will has always been nigh indomitable my little kit. Do not let this break you, I am giving of myself for you, a pathetic human who wished for death. SLEEP! and be at peace."
Naruto wanted to scream and thrash but a leaden weight filled his limbs, a bone trembling ache subtly nudged him further from consciousness. He stared desperately through barely slit eyes at the waves of red and gold chakra rushing down at him, encompassing him in a cocoon of dusky warm sunrises and gleaming sunsets. Warmth filled his oddly aching body and slowly Naruto gave in to the soothing darkness of sleep.
Kyuubi watched the mound of chakra and blew a warm breath over it. Then he raised himself on four shaky paws and turned as the darkness faded around him. He glanced back at the sleeping boy and a smirk lifted his hackles. The boy would wake up absolutely pissed. Chuckling the demon faded against the sky, returning to the realm he'd come from.
Hundreds of years passed and the boy slept in his cocoon of gradually dispersing chakra. Hidden from all eyes in a deep cave under the earth.
The world changed.
and The boy changed. Slowly, three whisker marks ever present on the narrow cheeks darkened. The golden blond hair parted and two triangular ears sprouted on the sides of his head replacing the human ears. Behind pink full lips canines sharpened and underneath twitching eyelids the pupils surrounded by sky blue lengthened to slits. Lethal looking claws curled slightly over his hand's fingertips.
The extent of the changes on the surface ended there. And the boy sleeps, still changing on the inside, while his world dies around him. The planet is one of three in the solar system eventually recognised as M-344/G.
He would have woken up on a dead world, if not for a team of humans sent by the Alliance to investigate a certain crash site on the desert planet.
He was discovered first as an oddly fluctuating anomaly picked up by scans of the planet. They found the sleeping humanoid in a translucent sphere of light that completely dissipated upon their proximity. They immediately placed their amazing discovery in a cryosleep container for the trip back to Alliance shipping headquarters. Unfortunately the cryosleep function had never been tested on an odd teenage humanoid animal mutant. Naruto, ever the unpredictable shinobi, decided he was ready to face the world after hundreds of years of hibernation, while he was being transported in his cryosleep bunk.
He woke up very slowly, practically had to drag his eyes open and even then they barely functioned. His limbs twitched and ached to move but he was trapped, confined in a box. His hands were bound in front of him in chains that he did not have the energy nor presence of mind to try and slip from, his body was pressed back into semi-comfortable cushioning. Naruto's stomach felt like it was eating itself and he really wanted a breath of fresh air not to mention a couple hundred bowls of ramen. The mere thought of ramen had Naruto's mouth filling with saliva and his stomach jolting in a wince worthy spike of pain in protest.
He lay in the box and swallowed his spit and tried to keep his mind off of ramen. Slowly taking stock of himself and trying to recall the last thing that he'd done, he blinked a few times and managed to ascertain that he was in a glass front box. Peering out at the dark interior of where ever he was, Naruto warily noticed two other glass encased humans. They were sleeping. Naruto's eye twitched and his face scrunched up in annoyance.
What the hell was going on?
I'm depending on Lynx Klaw's glossary in his/her story Chronicle of Darkness for most of my info on this particular fan-verse. Reviews are most welcome. Please tell me if you wish for me to continue? The next chapter will be a mesh of the five years Riddick lays low and what Naruto does now that he's awake. Then chapter three will be where I'm guessing Riddick and Naruto will meet for the first time.
