Virgil rushes to Dino's side and search for wounds. He can't seem to find any. He ckecks Baby Bull's pulse. It is feeble, but the man's still alive for now.
"I think he's just knocked out."
He looks up to see Frank holding his sword to Lhin's throat.
Virgil looks back from the gruesome death of Linh Lao, drawn by the glint of something in the dark around Dino.

To his horror, Virgil uncovered that Lao's blade had been snapped off, and was lodged deep in Dino's rib cage.

Morinelli lie wheezing, and coughing up what Virgil could only hope was rain...

Othello weary from battle starts to walk towards the sound of gunfire. His boot catches the butt of his treasured forty-five, tossed aside like so much detritus. Mud spatters it's one bright nickle plate. He percieves that it has been dented and that the safety ctch is broken. Both man and machine have been run through the mangler.

He gently retrieves the gun and the rain begins to wash it clean. Water also begins to wash away traces of blood and battle from the gravely tired warrior.

The curb is the best seat he can find. Tears that even he doesn't understand begin to well up in usually hard brown eyes and these too begin to cleanse his ever present sidekick. But more importantly they begin to cleanse his soul.

He slides the big gun into its holster and removes a picture of his beloved from a slit pocket.

"I made you a promise baby. A promise I intend to keep. I'm beating my swords into plowshares, my spears into pruning hooks. I will not take up my sword against a person, nor will I train for war anymore."

He smiles at last and tucks the picture away.

"But if I have to may the Holy God of Israel help him who causes it. Cause I'll make Coldstone look like Coney Island."

Virgil collapses on his knees, his heart filled with rage and frustration.
"NO! You can't die now Dino! Not when it's over! Not after all that you survived through! Not after what you just did."
He places the handle of one his guns in Dino's mouth and tells him to bite it hard. Then, with a hard pull, he retrieves the blade from his chest: He tears up his shirt and tries to patch the bleeding wound as best as his can.
"Stay with me big boy, you're gonna make it"
He calls out for help and then just sits next to Dino, tears slowly joining raindrops on his cheeks;

Paulie sees the burst of flames and takes that as his signal. He hopes the little light show Roman has cooked up will keep Zeta distracted long enough for Paulie to cover the distance before Zeta realizes it.

Everything seems like its moving in slow motion. Paulie can hear his heart pounding in his ears, and every step he takes echoes like thunder to him. The distance lessens with agonizing slowness, and the Jester wonders if this crazy stunt may be his last.

After what feels like an eternity, Paulie can see Zeta close now, seeming to try to strain through the remnants of the blast for a clear shot at Roman. From somewhere deep within comes a burst of speed Paulie never knew he had in him. Lowering his shoulder, he slams into Zeta's back like a really anemic version of Baby Bull.

Surprise does its job, however, and Zeta hits hard face-first into the chopper, his gun clattering to the ground. He falls backwards onto the rain-soaked roof and looks up into the eyes of the devil.

Paulie stands over him, wet with rain and blood, the jagged piece of glass held so tight his fingers are bleeding. And through it all he grins that grin that has been the last sight for so many.

"Time to cut the crap."

He kneels over Zeta, heavy on his chest, and draws back the makeshift dagger.

"Next time, fuckin' stay dead and save us all the grief."

He pulls back, poised to swipe the edge across Zeta's throat.

Frank pulled Roman's katana from the woman's throat. As the blood washed off in the rain, he walked to Virgil, and put his hand on his shoulder. Looking at Dino, he saw how broken up his friend was.

'He'll be alright, kid.'

But as the rain came down, Frank just didn't know at all.

Zeta was horror stricken for a second, before weakly letting his weapon clank to the ground. "I... I," he mumbled, carefully slipping out a parting shot, "I really hate this fucking cannery."

In a single, swift motion, Paulie cleared his conscience of the death of Capella. Anthony Zeta gurgled a fleeting final thought, then and slumped against the useless helicopter. Flames flickering against his lifeless pupils.

Paulie rushed to Roman's side. "You hit, Rome?"

Sirens echoed. The relentless Commissioner Graves had final gotten word. Roman was battered an beaten, but was alive. Panting a bit from enduring the longest night of his life, he carefully gave another direction to his infamous lieutenant.

"Go Paul," he offered sternly, as if he would hear nothing to the contrary. "Get whoever's left outta here."

The Jester wanted to argue, but he shut his mouth instead. DiVialoso jumped down from the helipad onto the roof's slick surface, making his way quickly to the stairwell door. Rather than get choked up, Paulie simply offered a respectful nod to his boss... no, his brother.

With an honor transcending anything Zeta had ever known, Roman Carvaggio lifted his tired body, paced across the landing site and gathered the dropped shard of glass. As if on cue, the rainstorm died. Morning's light approached.

Paulie and Othello met up a few moments later at the parking lot, quickly collecting one of the defunct delivery trucks and making their way to the edge of town.

Their thoughts lingered with Roman, and with Frank and Virgil, who had already departed with the wounded Dino in an abandoned Cadillac.

Both vehicles sped sway in opposite directions, staying clear of the incoming squad cars. Carvaggio waited with the patience of a samurai.

As morning arrived, things seemed unusually peaceful. The rain was gone, and an unfamiliar sun brought with it a new day. Coldstone was quiet...
