CHAPTER 41 - Right back at ya

Rafe limped off the elevator and walked over to his car in the hotel’s parking garage. Despite the fact that he was looking for him, he didn’t spot Tanner until he was nearly at the car.

The garage was underground and Rafe’s car was near the ramp that led up to the street, where outside, the night was fading away to dawn.

“Are you making fun of my limp or do you have one of your own now?”

“I underestimated a senior citizen, but let’s talk in the car.”

Rafe climbed behind the wheel while Tanner sat in the passenger seat. Tanner had dressed his wound and changed clothes. He was wearing jeans with a gray hoodie and running shoes.

“I watched the news before I left my room, it seems like the Giacconi Crime Family is in a war, the only thing is, no one seems to know for certain who they’re fighting with, but for now, it’s being blamed on the Russian mob.”

“The reporters are behind the times, the Giacconi’s and the Russians made peace years ago.”

“A blog called Street View mentioned you by name yesterday, but the TV news anchors are saying that one man couldn’t cause this much grief on the Giacconi Family. They also said that you were an urban myth, what’s that about?”

“I’m not the first assassin to go by the name Tanner; it was passed down to me, and they’re right when they say I couldn’t have done it alone, because you helped me with Pullo’s men.”

“But that chaos last night, was that all you?”

“It was, and I’m not through yet.”

“Johnny Rossetti?”

“Johnny Rossetti, or would you like the honor?”

Rafe smiled.

“My brother came out of his coma, so I’ve lost the fire in my belly, but I’ll stay here for another day, and if you need help, just say the word.”

“I was hoping you’d say that. I may need you for a diversion soon, likely tonight.”

“I’m in; I still owe them for my brother.”

Tanner opened his door to get out.

“Take care of that leg.”

“Right back at ya,” Rafe said, and Tanner limped up the ramp and was gone.

***

Tim and Madison stopped for breakfast after leaving MegaZenith, and Madison told Tim about her last conversation with Reese.

“When I told him I was quitting he asked for my phone number, can you believe that?”

“I don’t blame him for trying.”

Madison reached over and took Tim’s hand.

“What are you doing today?”

“First, I’ll get some sleep, but I’m meeting Tanner later.”

“Come back to my place. You can help me pack.”

“Pack? Where are you going?”

Madison leaned across the table and gave Tim a long kiss.

“I go where you go, or haven’t you noticed that I have a thing for you?”

“You’ll really come with me? You know, where I’m going, it’s far from the city. Hell, it’s far from everything.”

“I don’t care. There’s nothing holding me here anymore.”

They finished their meal and made their way to Madison’s apartment downtown, where they stood outside her doorway, kissing.

When they separated, Madison fished out her keys, and just as she opened the door, there came the sound of pounding footsteps.
