Riddick's POV
Two years later.
I stare into her beautiful blue eyes and see the pain and the longing in them. I wish that I can help but then
she is pulled away from me into the darkness by that thing. I stare after her for a moment then I fall to the
ground my injured leg no longer supporting me. I let my face lay in the muddy water for a moment then I
look up at the shy and whisper.
"Not for me." I try and see her but she is gone. I shout." Not for me."
I jerk awake sweat covering my body. The same dream every night since I had left that God forsaken planet
two years ago. The blind fold covering my eyes doesn't allow me to see. But I don't mind. I have lived in
darkness ever since that night on that planet. And all I ever see is her face. Her eyes staring into mine. I feel
tears begin but I quickly blink them back. I, Richard B. Riddick, didn't cry. I had never cried and I didn't
intend to start now. I tried to think of happier things. Like Almah and Jack. They were the closest thing that I
had had to a family. I missed them. But I was also glad for them. They had been able to reclaim they're lives
or make new ones for them selves. I, on the other hand, had been hunted down like a wild animal. But I
guess that's what they thought I was. A wild animal. Capable of nothing but killing. Screw them if they
didn't know or want to believe the truth. A low growl escapes my throat.
"Shut up." A man yells and pokes me with a cow prod. The electric shock is intense and painful but I barely
felt it. I had been living a life of pain and this was just child's play considered to what I had been through in
my life.
"We'll be there in an hour so just sit tight." The man says and I hear him settle back into his seat. I lowered
my head slowly. I ground my teeth and kept quiet when I wanted to shout and scream and kill these men
for what they were making me do, making me go back to. I hated the slam. I dreaded it. Even though I
couldn't see in the daylight I still loved the feel of it on my skin. Oh well I would just have to breakout again
and be on the run. I had done it before and I would do it again.
"Richard B. Riddick." Major Mcatyhey said behind his huge desk." We meet again." I smile slightly and
look him over. The light in the room is dim enough that I don't have to close my eyes or wear my goggles.
"Your still as big as ever Mcatyhey." I said. The Major's face turned red. I inwardly laughed. It was so easy
to rile this man.
"Well Richard. I think that this stay may be a little different from your other stays." Mcatyhey said standing
up and moving towards me around the huge desk. I cocked my head to the side and stared at him.
"A few years back a young girl was brought in here and I took quite a shine to her." The major said." And
yet she has refused any offers of help, and she has blatantly ignored me. I want you to find her and bring her
to me. In return you will be rewarded." He finished and I thought it over for a moment.
" What's in it for me?" I asked.
"You can have a bed. Other women. Hot food and showers." The Major rattled off the list as if it were a mere
grocery list.
"Her name?" I said. The Major smiled slightly thinking he had won yet I had other plans for then finding
some dead girl
" Her name is Noir Contra. I don't know what the inmates call her now But I do know that she is pretty high
on the ladder of people not to mess with."
My eyes widened at the thought of a girl getting to be dangerous at the slam but then she hadn't met
Riddick.
"I'll tell you what Major." I began." You let me outside once a month for manual labor then I'll get you the
girl." I bargained. The major didn't look to happy that he was being played but what other choice did he
have.
"Deal." He said. I was then jerked towards the door but before I left the Major asked me one last question.
"Riddick. Is it true that you crash landed on a planet with strange creatures two years
ago?" I turned and looked at him. The memories of that awful night rushing back on me.
"Yeah." I said. He nodded and waved the two guards leading me to take me out and t
he next thing I knew I was lying on the floor in front of the huge metal doors that I had
laid in front of so many times before. I stood and brushed myself off then I looked down the hall ways and
tried to decided which one I should go down this time. I had been down them all at one time or another but
this time I just couldn't decide until I heard a small shuffle to the left. I quickly slunk into the shadows and
looked to where the sound had come from. A slow smile spread across my features. Slowly I made my way
through the shadows until I was behind my prey then I reached out a hand and pushed the small man away.
" So mouse." I said stepping out from behind the walls to see mouse laying on the ground where I had
pushed him.
" Hey Riddick. What are you doing back in town?" The runt said. I shrugged and leaned against the wall.
"See you got a shine job while I was gone." I said. He sneered at me and stood up. I took a step towards him
and he backed up not wanting anymore abuse.
"Go tell Damon that Riddicks back in town and he misses his old place among the boys." I told him then I
turned and slowly made my way down a hall way and around a corner hearing mouse scramble away behind
me.
