I was on Necropolis in my room after the service looking at the suit of armor when I heard my mother and father talking about him having to go after this one breeder. He would have to take a frigate to go after this one breeder, and it was obvious to both my mother and I, that he wasn't happy with this assignment.

When he went to go get his gear ready to go, I followed him into his room to try and find out something about the fighter that killed Irgun. I would have just read his mind, but I had been punished far too many times to do that anymore. Neither of my parents liked it when I read their minds, so if I wanted to find something out, I had to do it the old fashion way, ask.

"Father, will you tell me about the fighter, the one that was brought back to Necropolis? Is he still here? Can I be the one to kill him if he won't be converted? What is his name?"

"His name is Riddick. You already know that the Lord Marshal will never have you to be the one to go after him, that is where I am going. And he won't be converted, he will be killed, but not by you my daughter. Ask no more questions, and think no more of this man, or of Irgun's death. I know that you two were friends, but he is in the UnderVerse and one day who will see him there, but do not mourn him anymore." He kissed me on the forehead before he left the room.

He still treats me like a little child even though I have beaten him a true fight, and I am first among warriors. If he won't allow me to go after this Riddick, then I'll go after him without my father's or the Lord Marshal's permission. I bet I could find him faster then they could, and he would never know that I was a Necromonger, so when I revealed who I am, killing him would be just that more satisfying.

After he left for the frigate, I got my stuff together and left to go find Riddick alone. I knew that I could find Riddick faster than my father all of his lensers combined. Because I could blend in with humans, and I could read their minds, not only would he not know that I was a Necromonger, but I would know the exact way to play on all of his emotions, get him to trust me, maybe even fall in love with me, and then just when I had all of his trust, I would run a blade across his neck, and watch him bleed to death while he was tied up so I could watch him die and hear every moan coming from his body as the life slipped away. It may be morbid, but I would get my revenge, and then I could bring back his head to the Lord Marshal and show everyone that a woman warrior was not to be messed with.

I slipped out of the ship without anyone to notice that I had even left. Mom had gone somewhere to do whatever it is that she does, we were never very close even though we are mother and daughter. She wanted nothing to do with me as a child, and by the time that she even considered me likable, I was already in training with dad as my teacher, so I was even more of a daddy's little girl, and my mother never even appeared on my radar.

I went to one of the houses that I had personally raided during the siege and knew would be vacant. There had only been a couple living their with no children, so she wouldn't have to worry about there being any toys and such things scattered all over everywhere. Lucky enough, the woman that lived there was just about her size clothes wise, so she had plenty of clothes to wear, and she would only keep a few outfits from the man so that it looked like there had been someone else who had been living there with her so she could explain the other bed if Riddick should happen to be there in the near future.

Something in the back of my mind had been telling me ever since I had overheard my parents talking about my father's mission, that Riddick wouldn't be found off world, but right here on Helion Prime. I would just have to wait patiently enough and he would "fall into my lap".

I had been living in the vacated home for almost a month, when my mother's hench men found me living there, thinking that I was just another human that they could convert. They raided, what was now my home, but found only sound lashings and for some, their own blood. Once they realized who I was, they stopped fighting me, and humbly requested that I accompany them to Necropolis to see my mother. It turned out that she really had noticed that I had gone, and my father ordered from halfway across the galaxy that I be brought back home immediately. Mom just hadn't told her hench men who they were going after, just where to find me.

When I got there, I was told to "call" my father using the telepaths even though I could have done it by myself. We had a very vivid argument that my mother heard, just pretended to not have heard anything.

"I told you not to go after him!"

"With all due respect, no you didn't. You just said that I wouldn't be told by the Lord Marshal to go after him. You never said that I couldn't go after him on my own."

"Well I'm telling you now!"

"You aren't being fair! It's not like I left the planet. I just left Necropolis to go find him, just in case he comes back to the planet before you find him."

"Stay with your mother, or when I get back, so help me, I'll give you a beating of a life time."

"You know what dad, NO! If I want to go after him, I will and neither you nor the Lord Marshal will stop me!"

"Aerinha! If I have to, I will notify the Lord Marshal myself and he will have you imprisoned until I get there for disobeying my orders."

"Dad, you know the kind of powers that I posses, and you know that I will use them if I have to, so don't fucking piss me off! Leave me alone and allow me to do this, or so help me, I will make you believe that you are a seven year old girl for the rest of your life!"

" 'Rinha…"

"And don't even think about bringing the Lord Marshal into this. If he or anyone else gets into my way, it will be on your head that they die, including the Lord Marshal. He is weak, and if we face off, there is no way in hell that he would survive, trust me on this."

And with that, I stormed out of the room and out of the ship. Everyone who got in my way was sent flying across the room because I didn't feel like fighting my way out of the ship, and had I allowed anyone to approach me, I just might have had to do that. We had driven there in the car that was conveniently left at the house when the people had been taken away, along with the keys. I hopped into the car and drove away, praying that they wouldn't send anymore warriors to find me, they were my comrades, and I didn't want to have to kill them if they got in my way.

I had gotten a good halfway home when I looked in my rearview mirror and saw something move in the back seat. Had I been any normal human being, my first reaction would have been to pull the car over, and jump out before anything happened to me, but since I am a Necromonger warrior, I only pretended to be afraid and pull the car over.

I had been driving down a deserted road, so I didn't have to worry about traffic but I did have to worry about the thing in my back seat; whether or not to kill it. As I started to pull the car over, I heard whatever it was in the back seat say something, but I couldn't make it out.

"Did you say something, whatever you are back there?"

"Yes I said something." He said as he came over the backs of the seats to the middle seats. "I said, please don't pull over. I'm not going to hurt you, I just need a place to hide until they leave this planet. Please just don't pull over?"

Like I said before, if I had been a normal human, I would have pulled the car over and bolted out of it before anything could happen to me, but since I'm not a normal human, this seemed liked the perfect opportunity to catch my prey. I continued driving to my home with this man in the middle seat of my car, with the both of us going through some sort of awkward silence that neither of us could think of how to end.

I was almost home when I heard from behind me, "Thank you, by the way. I wouldn't normally be asking for help, but my usual tactics don't seem to work with these guys."

"Your welcome, I guess. Just please don't hurt me like you said you wouldn't?" I said trying to fain fear in my voice.

He placed his hand on my shoulder, "I swear to you on the graves of my dead friends, that I will not harm you in any way."

"Dead friends? What happened?"

"They were killed during the siege. One of the men from the ships killed them both in cold blood. One was killed trying to protect his family from them, and the other was killed right in front of my face, after she had been captured."

I pulled into the driveway of my house just as I got to the last question on my part, "What were their names?"

He looked me long and hard before he answered my question, "Imam and Jack. Imam was protecting his family by luring one of those men away from his family so they might have a chance to get away, and Jack was just a girl, no more than seventeen. After I had found Imam's body, I went to go find her, but she had just refused to go with them and she was killed on the spot. I didn't have enough time to get to her before she was shot and she died almost instantly."

I tired to not think of what had happened at the meeting place the next day, but the tears began to come anyways, and I just broke down right there in front of him. I had atleast managed to make it inside before any tears spewed out, but I still can't believe that just because of his story, I broke down. Me, first among warriors, the daughter of a Necromonger Commander, crying over some sob story just because it sort of reminded me of what happened to Irgun.

He followed me inside and put his arms around me, I guess to comfort me, but that was a bad move for him. The moment that he touched me, the strongest of his memories flooded my senses and I was forced to relive the entire ordeal.

I saw how both Imam and Jack had been killed, so much blood, the man responsible for their deaths, Irgun, and how Irgun had looked from his point of view as he killed him. Also, I had seen myself through his eyes. I could see all of the hurt, anger, and revenge playing in my eyes, the only thing he could see of me while I was wearing the Necromonger garb. But more importantly, I could sense the small amount of fear in him caused by me. He had known the moment that I gave him that death glare that I planned to kill him, and he had no idea what I looked like under the helmet.

"Don't touch me!" I pulled away from him and nearly gagged to death from all of the blood. With as many people as I had killed, I had never seen so much blood.

"Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. Just don't touch me like that again. I don't want to have to experience that again."

"Experience what again?"

"Those memories! The ones about Imam and Jack, and the man who killed them then who you killed. I am a Telepath who also happens to have Telekinesis. Those memories were too strong and I had no warning, NONE, that you were going to put your arms around me. If I had, I would have been able to block some of it, Riddick."

"How did you know my name?"

"Wow! You have a really bad memory. Do you know your name?"

"Yes."

"Then I know it too, now." I looked at him for a moment, and then finally saw the understanding in his eyes as he remembered what I had just told him. "Now I know just about everything about you. Richard B. Riddick, escaped convict, murderer. Did I get it right?"

"Yes, and I'm sorry, but I didn't know."

"I know, so don't apologize. Just guard your memories and feelings around me, especially when you touch me. Also, try to keep any stray thoughts to yourself. I can't always block those when I am this close to someone."

I turned to leave the room, "Wait! What's your name, since you know mine?"

"Raina."
