Buster's conversation with Joseph Miller was brief and to the point. The man agreed to let Smoke provide Train with whatever he needed and even commended Buster for being secure enough to ask for help. They were friends after all. Buster gritted his teeth through most of the call, but it was important to let Miller think he had the upper hand. Nothing came without a price though and he accepted another run for Miller that would take two men away from Detroit when he needed them the most.

The call to Manuel reaffirmed the alliance between The Street Kings and Nightshade. They'd work together to take out The Wild Cards. Buster wouldn't involve The Street Kings when they went against Miller. It wasn't their fight.

The bar was quiet when he was done. Buster looked at the stairs, knew that Caroline was up there waiting for him, but instead of going up, he went over to the bar and poured himself a stiff drink. He downed it and poured another. He sipped the second one as he sat, trying to clear his head of all the clutter inside.

Thinking about Hanna earlier had brought her to the forefront of his mind, the way that she'd been so scared after the bullet hit and she knew there was no time. The way that he'd been helpless to do anything. There was no way the ambulance he called would arrive in time. She hadn't stood a chance.

He'd made a promise to himself that night. He'd never wanted to put another woman in the line of fire. He'd kept that promise. Kept things casual. And now, as war was staring anew, he'd managed to get himself an old lady. Buster downed the rest of his drink and poured a third. The only thing that he could do now was keep her close and keep her safe. The idea that it might not be possible kept him at the bar.

“You planning on ever coming up to bed?” Caroline's voice surprised him. He turned to see her standing there in a tee shirt that reached nearly down to her knees and a pair of socks that went almost as high.

“I thought you were asleep.”

“I was. I forgot to bring a bottle of water upstairs with me. I got thirsty.”

“I got drunk.” Buster stared at the bottle. “Things have really gone to shit, Caroline. And part of it's on me. Hell, most of it is. Your old man is a first class fuck-up. Grab me another bottle, I'm running a little low.”

“I'll get you some water,” she replied as she moved behind the bar. “You want to tell me why you think you've fucked up?”

“How much time do you have?” Buster lit a cigarette, exhaled a stream of smoke towards the ceiling. “I'm sorry that you got hurt today. I should have realized that something wasn't right about Jake Dodd before you got hurt. I should have known a lot of things.”

“Are you psychic? Did you forget to tell me that?” She placed a bottle of water on the bar in front of him.
