Chapter 3: The Trust Factor and Shadow.

It was a couple days since the revelations that she heard about her past and present life. Now she has to think about her future and supposedly the people of her race. She came out of the room and headed for the door way of Riddick's home. She didn't see Riddick standing in the corner of the door.

"Where do you think you are going?" said Riddick

"Riddick, I really have time for this bullshit with you. Why can't you just leave me alone?" pleaded Calandra.

"It's not like you to whine and plus I thought we are going to do this together." Said Riddick

"We are going to do this together, but I need to get my ship." Said Calandra

"Then I will go with you, maybe we should take this ship." Said Riddick

"No, this ship will be to obvious in space and that might scare them off and we won't be able to find them so take my word for it lets take my ship." Said Calandra

Riddick didn't say a word, all he did was followed her outside. She went through the town and made a right by an abandon building and went down a tunnel. A man with bleach blonde hair, 235lbs, with a chubby face came up to Calandra and Riddick went on the defensive.

"Riddick, chill out." She said to him "Hey Tony, where's my baby at, do you got her back working again?" said Calandra

"Sure do, sweetheart." Said Tony

They walk further down the tunnel and went into the underground building. Riddick walked a little faster to catch up with Calandra. Riddick walked in the room and he was blinded by the light in the room even with his goggles on.

"Tony, bring the lights down to 30 percent." Said Calandra

"Why?" said Tony

"Just do what I say please!" Said Calandra

Tony turn down the light and Calandra squeezed Riddick's arm to see if he was okay. He flexed his muscles and walked away. She walked behind Tony to see the ship.

"I think your ship miss you." Said Tony "What do you think?"

"Where is it?" said Riddick, who just came into the room.

"You telling me you can not see it." Said Calandra, who was more excited that Riddick couldn't see it.

"Who is this guy Calandra, Is he a guard?" said Tony

"Does he look like a guard to you? His name Riddick, the best murderer and convict in Hellion Prime and other planets" said Calandra

"All you have to say is the secret past word and state your name and it is all yours." Said Tony

She looked at Riddick and smiled. Riddick just starred at a place he thought was empty; wasn't he in for a surprise.

"This is Captain Jones, ready to board the Stardom." Said Calandra

There was a loud engine sound, and out of nowhere there was a big ship sitting right in front of him. The ship had two floors to it and everything they needed to survive.

"Now, it just got interesting," said Riddick to himself. Calandra walked up to him and said I tell you everything.

"Are you ready?" said Calandra.

A couple hours later they were already in space. Calandra was in the pilot seat. She put the ship on auto-pilot. Riddick was sitting there with his feet on the controls. She got out of her sit and went down the hall and got in a shower. The hot water running down her back and it felt good. She felt like home, while she was out in space. Her mind started to travel; she began to think about Riddick. She started to remember when she was in Butcher Bay with Riddick. Then the beeping sound of the watch started to go off.

"Shit, this is not good." growled Calandra. She jumped out of the shower and ran to her room. She didn't notice Riddick was watching every move that she made. She put on a pair of pants and a shirt and went down the little stairs to an exercising room. She dropped to the ground and began screaming and gripping the floor as she began to change. Her mood-swing was getting more powerful every time she fought it. She was in heat just like an animal and tried to control it the best she knew was fighting and she did that alone. Her eyes began a glowing hazel, her k-nines became longer, and she was no longer Calandra, she became Shadow. Riddick heard the scream and quickly sniffed the air. He smelled it before lust, sex, and a woman. The animal in him took charge. He got up and search for her. He was on the prowl and for some reason he couldn't stop himself. He went down the stairs and the smell got stronger. He touches the door knob and it was locked. Riddick heard a conversation but only with one voice.

"Come on Calandra, let Riddick in I want to have some fun." Said Shadow

"No, not like this you remember what almost happen last time. This can not happen this way. I know what you are planning to do. It's not his fault" Said Calandra

"You know want him and I just gave the opportunity to do so, do I have to do it again. What have it been six years since you had his touch and those eyes, if looks was sex don't you think we have it all the time and plus he must pay for what happen on Earth." Laughed Shadow

Shadow moved towards the door and let Riddick in. Riddick remember what happen in the bathroom of Butcher Bay. He moved closer and started to growl. The animal was winning in the better judgment. Shadow began toying with Riddick and he liked it.

"Come on Mr. Big and bad, if you want it you will have to fight for it." Said Shadow

They both moved swiftly around the room. Riddick started off first with throwing a couple punches and she blocked every single last one of them. They were moving rapid speed and Shadow slid forward and punches in the chest. Riddick grabbed her arm and push her towards him. He smelled her and she flipped him over and landed on top of him. Shadow ripped the shirt off of Riddick's and smelled him, touch him, and began grinding him.

"You know you want this Riddick, let the animal have it. You can't stop it, just like Calandra can't stop this." Said Shadow

Riddick switch turns and Riddick was top, he was ready to proceed until he saw the look of innocence in her eyes and he stop. Riddick pushed Shadow, he pushed her so hard that she flew to the punching bag and lock her in the exercise room. Riddick sat in front of the door and drop his head. He heard her growl louder and hissed at him. The animal in him wanted her. It was driving him crazy. Something that is so wild, aggressive, and intelligent. He sat there and heard another scream, but he didn't go go in there. Then he heard a whisper coming to the door.

"Riddick…? Said Calandra

Riddick smelled the air and he didn't smell Shadow anymore, he smelled Calandra. He unlocked the door and saw Calandra struggling to walk towards him. Then her eyes began to glow and Shadow came out to play again. She slammed Riddick on the floor. Riddick was stunned; he couldn't move all her weight went on him like a ton.

"You thought that I was going to make this easy for you. I don't trust you. I lost respect for you letting something that happens to me on Earth. You promised me that you would protect me and yet you let it happen. You dropped me off at Earth, you fucking bastard" She said angrily. She put a knife on Riddick's neck and he laid there looking in her eyes.

"What happen on Earth Shadow?" questioned Riddick.

"Why Riddick? Why do you care?" said Shadow.

"Just tell me, Fuck, Shadow, what happen?" growled Riddick.

"You want to know, Couple weeks after you left me physically and emotional on the damn planet. I met Marcino, I didn't know what I know now." Whispered Shadow, her eyes began to go back to normal and Riddick saw a tears forming in her eyes. Shadow tried to get up off of Riddick, but he put his arms firmly on her waist.

"Continue, Let it all out." Growled Riddick. "What did he do?"

"He…raped me. I didn't understand why and still don't know why, but anyways after he what he did to me. For some reason I couldn't break away from. I couldn't remember what you taught me in Butcher Bay. All I could smell was liquor in his breath. He told me that he couldn't get me in Butcher Bay because of you. You were protecting me. He said I will be his forever. I didn't know what he was talking about. Then he left and locks me in a building. Then there was Tony, he helps me escape and to this day he won't tell me why he helped me. A couple weeks after the rape situation I went to a clinic and found out that I was pregnant. I had to get rid of it. I had to let my child go Riddick. I couldn't have a child by a man I didn't love or even rape me for that matter. I didn't know what to do so I went to the building and stole a ship and he been chasing me every since. He has my scent. He knows I killed his only child. He wants me to pay for what I did. I don't know what to do." She whispered she noticed that she still never moved the knife off of Riddick's neck. She lowered her knife and put it back in her pants. Riddick shift his weight so he could sit up. He held tightly while she cried. Riddick was angry and his blood was boiling. He rubbed her hair gently and he heard a little moan and then a whimper. She looked at Riddick with those hazel eyes and kissed him gently on the lips. He returns the instant pleasure, he laid her on her back and kissed her like he never kiss a woman and then he looked at her.

"Should I trust you Richard B. Riddick?" said Calandra

"Who's asking?" said Riddick

"Both of us." Said Calandra

"Shouldn't the question is, can you trust yourself around me?" questioned Riddick "I will make him pay for what he did to you I promise. I will protect you and die trying. The next time we are in this position it would be for pleasure not restraint because the next time you go through change like that, I don't know if the animal in me could just let you go like that." He sniffed her and took off his goggles and looked at her. She was back to that innocent little girl he meet on the ship. He got off of her and gave her a helping hand to lift her to her feet. They walked out of the room with full understanding of what is going on with her. He felt that he was the cause of the pain that she went through. But the thing she didn't understand was that he had to save her from himself. He was a beast; her scent was strong when she was younger. He understood that it wasn't Calandra he smelled, it was Shadow.

"I need to take another shower, go in the kitchen and I make you something to eat." Said Calandra

"You can cook?" said Riddick

"As much as you starring at my butt just now." Said Calandra

"Hey, there's a lot there for me to look at." Said Riddick

"You shouldn't play games like that because you will lose." Said Calandra as she shut the door in Riddick's face.

"I doubt it very seriously" whispered Riddick to himself.

It took Calandra about 25 minutes to get out of the shower and put something on. She had on firm fitting jeans and a tank top. Her hair was in a ponytail; she walked inside the kitchen and saw Riddick sitting there.

"Go take a shower Riddick and dinner will be done when you come out." Said Calandra

"You got anything for me to wear." Said Riddick

"Yes, they are in your room and Riddick?" said Calandra

"Yeah?" said Riddick.

"Thank you." Said Calandra
