Beautiful Savage: I'm finally back. Sry, for going MIA like that but real life got in the way for a while. Please forgive me. Well, Enjoy.

Sage sat on Riddick's chest with a shiv at his throat and murder in her eyes. Her chest was heaving and her face was red with anger. Riddick stared up at her convinced she was going to kill him this time…for real.

"It ate my boots! Again! That's the fifth pair Richard!" she bellowed looking over at the giant moon cat that lay sound asleep on the other side of the training floor. The entire army had been sent to retrieve it from Crematoria at Riddick's command and it had been living with them on the ship for a little over a month.

"It's not his fault. He's still adjusting," Riddick told her calmly, "At least he's over trying to eat people. He'll grow out of it in a few weeks. Besides I always get you a new pair."

"That's not the point! As soon as I get them broken in it eats them! I'm tired of waking up to nothing but slobber drenched soles!" she growled, "Why doesn't he eat your boots?"

"He likes me," Riddick replied.

"I noticed, after the 90 time it pushed me off the damn bed!" she yelled, "Why does it have to sleep in our room?"

"He gets lonely at night," the giant defended., "Like I said, he's still adjusting."

"Well it better finish adjusting pretty quick or I'm sleeping in a different room…alone," Sage threatened.

"Okay, okay just give him another couple of weeks," Riddick pleaded. Sage growled softly before standing up and putting her hands on her hips. She shook her head growling before she turned and began to walk away when she suddenly started to fall forward. Riddick was up in a second and caught her. He looked down and saw that she was out cold and pale.

"Sorry baby," he muttered as he began carrying her to their room. Even since she'd woken up Sage had developed a few irregular habits. Passing out when she got too worked up was the most panic inducing though, Riddick was always secretly terrified she wasn't going to wake up again. The fever had caused minor brain damage that was practically unnoticeable, but still caused a few little problems. Riddick didn't care, he had Sage back and that was all that mattered to him, but Sage hated it. She saw it as weakness and it frustrated her to the point that she would practically kill herself to hide it.

Riddick laid her down and gently took off her boots before turning to the moon cat that had followed him into the room. The creature stood staring at Sage before looking at Riddick. He didn't really have a name, he was just the cat or him. The cat had taken to Sage instantly always wanted to be around her, but Sage hadn't noticed. She was always to annoyed about him eating her shoes or pushing her out of bed or trying to eat Vaako/Scales to notice that he had fallen in love with her.

"Yeah, this time it was your fault. You have to stop eating her shoes," Riddick told the cat. In response it walked over and picked up one of Sage's boots. Riddick groaned as he snatched the boot from him and quickly grabbed the other off the ground. "Bad! She'll have a fucking seizure if she wakes up and found out you ate another pair," he told the cat setting the boots on the dresser, "Come on lets go eat."

O

Sage woke up to find she was once again in bed. It seemed like she spent more time here than anywhere else on the ship. She growled softly sitting up and smacking herself soundly in the head. This was so god damned stupid, she couldn't stay conscious just because the damn cat ate her boots again. She didn't like this shit, Riddick didn't get it she was weak like this and it seemed no matter how hard she tried not to be weak she still was. But Riddick just told her it didn't matter and that he didn't care, all that mattered was that she was alive.

As if this was living, she passed out every time she got seriously pissed, and she'd been doing so good. It had been a whole two weeks since the last time she'd passed out and the doctor had said that she was getting better but here she was in bed again. And lately she'd been getting softer, her defined muscles had been loosing their shape and she was gaining weight. Not to mention that for the last few days her stomach kept getting upset for no reason. It was fucking ridiculous.

"I'm hungry," she muttered as she swung her legs over the bed and started looking around for her boots wondering if the cat had eaten them again. She liked the cat she just didn't like the way the fucking cat acted. She found her boots on the dresser and knew Riddick had put them there so the cat couldn't get them. She slipped them on and stomped to the mess hall to find dinner was almost over. The cat lopped over and began rubbing against her leg.

"Feeling better?" Riddick asked as she slipped into her seat beside him.

"I'm fine," she snapped suddenly annoyed at him. Riddick sighed as a servant set a plate in front of her, Sage had been so moody lately that he was just starting to ignore it.

"I say we got to the Kelno system next," Vaako said causing Sage to look over at him and Scales.

"Well, I say we go to the Glenton system," Scales told him, "It's more densely populated.

"Well I say you're an idiot," Vaako snapped, "They'll be expecting us after we just got done with the Demont system right next to them."

"Yeah, four months ago," Scales snapped back. Sage smiled as she watched them fight about the next conquest. Riddick had changed their master plan a little but to sticking to systems populated by scum (of which there were plenty) and it had been like this for the last year since Sage had regain consciousness, they would bitch and fight until either Riddick or she stepped in and stopped it. But as soon as one argument was done they'd find something else to yell about, Sage though it was hilarious.

"You're such a moron!" Scales roared at Vaako.

"Well, you're a dummy head," Vaako snarled.

"Okay children, let's put this fight on hold until tomorrow when you have better ammo," Sage said rolling her eyes, "Dummy head? Really Vaako you can do better than that."

"I'm tired," he sulked causing Sage to start laughing.
