The floor turned into a vortex of green blood. They knew my weak points and closed in for the kill. The shadows rushed me, bruised mug-shot faces hungry for revenge.He was trying to buy more sand for his hour glass.At best, I was Superman on Kryptonite, about to fall through a skylight, down to where it was all going down. Staggering on the mill roof in ice and snow and wild wind, I was a Ninja.It was chaos and luck and anyone who thought differently was a fool. You'd find that Lady Luck was really a hooker, and you were fresh out of cash.It was colder than the devil's heart, raining ice pitchforks as if the heavens were ready to fall.He was trying to put out my flames with gasoline.

No lurked in this labyrinth, but somewhere out there, on the clanking deck of his cargo freighter, the skipper of the Charon was waiting, like the ferryman of the river. On a night like this you couldn't help but think of the dark army of dead men, sleeping with the fishes, cement shoes in line.

Vlad was one of those old time bad guys with honor and morals, which almost made him one of the good guys.I felt like the chair I had broken to get free.I would have given anything to have him here as my back up. Crime fighting comrades, the best in NYPD-DEA collaborative team. Alex and I had a few moments of glory between us.Nothing is a cliché when it's happening to you. But who was I to talk, a brooding underdog avenger alone against an empire of evil out to right a grave injustice. After, the end of the world had become a cliché.He had been spending a lot of time getting intimate with the guy downstairs. The only thing I could take seriously was the thought of Lupino taking it seriously.My options had decreased to a singular course. The good and the just, they were like gold dust in this city. Trouble had come to me, in big dark swarms. Gognitti ran out of steam in a dead end valley with steam boiling out of the sewer grates, like all the fires of hell were burning high beneath us.I don't know about angels, but it's fear that gives men wings.Things would soon get hot in the Don's restaurant. Snow fell like ash from post-apocalyptic skies, but that was outside.A deadly virus released into the City's corrupt circulatory system. I might have laughed, if I had remembered how.I was already so far past the point-of-no-return I couldn't remember what it had looked like when I had passed it. Collecting evidence had gotten old a few hundred bullets back.One thing you can count on: You push a man too far, and sooner or later he'll start pushing back.I had just gotten my fifteen minutes of fame.The goons inside were spooked, but luck always came with a price tag. Lupino thought he could get to us by taking out Alex and leaving me to take the fall for it.That would have been the smart thing to do. Bad things happened in the night, on the streets of that other city. When the darkness fell, New York City became something else, any old Sinatra song notwithstanding.I didn't like the way the show started, but they had given me the best seat in the house, front row center.Twilight crawled across the sky, laden with foreboding. The sun went down with practiced bravado.
