Few days skipped and my attitude didn't get any better, the feeling of helplessness and betrayal were still inside my head spinning around like a tornado. I tried not to think about it but it haunted me down every fucking minute and every second it got deeper under my skin burning like an alcohol in a fresh wound. The more I wanted to escape from it the more I thought about it… through the fact that war was over and all people in the city were alright and safe I was devastated and restless.

I really didn't want to do it, really I tried. But if I wouldn't I would hate myself for the rest of my life…

It took a few moments when the silence was broken by a beeping. But then I heard familiar voice that sounded through the satellite phone ,,Yeah? Who the fuck is this?"

,,Hey uncle… I got something to tell you"

I heard laugh ,,Sammy! I would love to talk but we are just getting ready for our next hunt!"

I swallowed, my throat tightened /why am I doing this?/ I asked myself. I took a deep breath and then spoke up ,, I don't know who you gonna hunt but I will bet my house that I have better deal for you..."

Again I heard laughter and massive caught after "REALLY? Well surprise me then!"

,,Richard B Riddick...do you remember the name Toombs?"

Silence..."That bloody bastard was cooling his as down in a Slam City!"

,,He supposed to be, there was a civil war and he escaped… and I think the price is even bigger than it was before" I smiled because I knew I won this fight. Toombs would never say no to good amount of a money and the fact that Riddick is the most wanted in 5 solar systems all around the fucking space made me more than sure the price will be astronomically high.

"Good holy shit! Thank you Sammy! I need to go now I think I have a new job!" he wanted to hang up but I stopped him before he could. ,,Wait! Uncle, I want to join you..."

"I thought you have your own fortune...that you quit!?" I heard uncertainty in his voice.

"I thought so too, but Riddick was my first hunt in my life. I know how dangerous he is for the people around… if bringing Riddick back means peace and safety for civil life? I am in!"

Toombs exhaled "I knew you gonna change your mind! Pack your things we gonna pick you up."

"When?" I asked nervously

"SOON!" was the answer I got and then just deaf line. I put the phone down and got to preparations. I went to the basement where I hid my old stuff when I moved in...Never in a million years I thought I will use them again. But there I stood, packing them up… compass, maps, thermal imaging radar, dad's memorial knife.

It took me whole afternoon to prepare and pack whole the equipment. I tried to stay as traditional as I could but I changed few things. I didn't take the old, rusty and cheap mercenary guns but my own that I use as a member of an army. I also took my uniform on with the labels of a soldier and a guard of the city, elite pilot and guardian of the galaxy. I knew I won't fit in between those drunken idiots in a cargo pants and sweaty t-shirts. But I was proud of my profession and proud that I can do the right thing. Even though I was not sure if I actually want to do it …

It was an evening and I was sitting on my rooftop watching the skyline… it was comfy. Finally after a few days I felt better. I felt like I am actually doing something and not just hiding and doing nothing. Seeing all those people calmly walking in the streets not worried for their lives, buying stuff and having conversation with neighbours. How beautiful the life could've been without murderers and thieves...without crime?

The question is...would've the life had any purpose when everybody would be so nice and polite? What would we do? We soldiers, guardians of galaxies, elite pilots, city guards and not just us... Many more… judges, lawyers, engineers? What would we do when there would be no wars no fights over power or a land, neither fear nor violence. All those decent and honest people would be unnecessary and useless…

When I've gotten to an army I've given a promise that I will fight for good, protect people and guard my planet. Now I go against everything I've promised. When you tease a snake with your bare feet, it will defend itself. And how else would it defend than by attacking? Riddick isn't just a convict, he is different. More dangerous, more unfathomable... wayward, more clever than anyone of us! We have one try to surprise him, if we fail we will be responsible for thousands of dead people. If we will fail I will become an enemy of the worlds as well.

Again it got me to my knees, I thought I would never be forced to get back. To rejoin my past. I thought I would run from it, hide in between my dreams and imagines of a prefect calm life. But now I see the ruthless, painful truth. That no matter how I try, how much I want to escape or hide the chances are...I can't run from it. The past will always find it's way...
