Something was touching her hair, she groaned at the ticklish feeling and moved her head aside, this time it moved to her bared neck, she heard someone talking, she opened her eyes and saw Red was nuzzling her hair with his tusks, she froze.

"We have arrived, little one." Bau'jah repeated, nuzzling her hair one more time.

She felt a little bit embarrassed and tried to get free from his hold but she couldn't.

"Red? You can put me down now." She cleared her throat awkwardly and was glad that he let her go.

The nap helped to get her energy back, and it was still bright outside.

"Where is your ship?" She asked, staring into the plants and greens, the smell of nature mixed with muggy air, filled her nose.

He brought his arm computer to his chest and entered a few commands, then there was a buzzing sound as his ship decloaked into its full might, Ray gasped in awe, even his ship was black, it was huge, it looked sleek and majestic, like a black mirror reflecting its own surroundings, it bore no resemblance to a door anywhere on the ship. Ray heard his tusks clicking like he was laughing at her human expression, then he walked straight to the ship's aft, upon detecting his bio-signature, a door appeared out of nowhere and it swooshed open. Ray followed him in, her mind was still processing the imagine of the ship.

Once inside, he walked straight to his weapons room to deposit the creature's head as predicted, it was a large area that stored his weapons and trophies, annexed his training room.

Ray was in dire need of a shower, so she headed straight to the washroom where the sonic shower resided, she stripped naked behind the partition and left her dirty clothes in a heap on the floor. Steeping in, she exhaled to relax herself, let the shower to wash off every grime on her body, closing her eyes, she thought about his strange behavior today, even though he used her as bait, but still...something about him had changed.

Not that she was complaining about his nice attitude, it was just so unlike him and she was not used to it, like he was up to something, something she didn't know about and it bothered her greatly. He was always distant and cold, but not today, today he even addressed her differently, before it was either female or human. He was so unpredictable, yet she liked this side of him, along with the way he talked to her, even being that close to him against his body.

"Get it together, Ray, you are such a mess!" she chastised herself out loud in the shower when she thought of his touch, suppressing her twisted thoughts, she began singing in the shower to distract her.

Everything's gonna be alright, everything's gonna be just fine

It's gonna be a good, good life

I'm a mess, I'm a loser

I'm a hater, I'm a user

I'm a mess for your love, it ain't new

I'm obsessed, I'm embarrassed

I don't trust no one around us

I'm a mess for your love, it ain't new

The shower took longer than usual as she relaxed, by the time she was done, her cheeks were flushed and her body reddened. Stepping out of the shower, she looked at the empty spot on the floor where her clothes once were, "what the hell? I'm sure I left them here." She murmured.

She checked over the other side of the partition and beyond, empty, her clothes were gone, like they grew legs and ran off. She stood there naked and confused for a moment before she came to the only probable conclusion: no one else was onboard this ship except her and Red. Ray gasped and quickly covered herself with her arms.
