"So dere was dis fight at distribution in Manhattan. And Morris clearly said to Blink, 'We can kill you as well.' No joke... now Blink and I thought about it for a while, and what we come up with was dat Morris and Oscar killed Spike too." She explained it all as calmly as possible becaue inside she was doing cartwheels!

His eyes widened, and his mouth dropped open for a few seconds. "It...It....." cant be "Makes perfect sense..." His mind was catching up to the events and a small grin spread across his face.
"That's the answer, Prince. The answer to that question we had before this entire thing even started! When the Delancey's were quiet, we wondered why. Now we know!"

"One problem..." she said holding up a hand. "The boys ain't that smart... there's gotta be someone behind all dis," she said. "Or they wouldn't just go and kill a kid for no dang reason," she said. "There's gotta be more."

He paused, "...Good point." Crossing his arms, he sighed. "I dont know anyone who would be that twisted to do something like that. The bad guys we have around here...they're not smart enough to kill a little kid-" His eyes flew open and he made a sort of gasping sound in his throat. "Oh...My...God..."

Thinking Ace just had a really good idea she looked at him with a smile. "Think ya know who it is?" she asked him with a smile. She knew that Ace could figure it out.

He put a hand over his mouth, "Prince...you...there's no way...." He looked up at her, his eyes full of something rarely ever seen in a New York leader's face. Fear. "He...He...couldn't..."

Prince's smile fell. "Ace... what? Who did it? Who-" it hit her then too. He didn't have to answer, she knew. "No... naw, he couldn'ta... he ain't got that much power! He... there's no way..." Prince said in utter shock herself.

"Danny, mom and dad are gone for the weekend, its only me and you." The eyes that met his were ice cold, sinister. "What do you want to do?"
"Why are you running away, Danny? Dont you want to play with me anymore? You were just going on yesterday about how we never get to spend time together!" Footsteps, chasing him. He couldn't get away, no matter where or how fast he ran.
"Come here...Im not going to hurt you...What kind of brother do you take me for?" Hands grabbed him, pulled him inside. "We're just going to have a nice night by the fire...."
Ace felt sick to his stomach, and he leaned over, breathing hard. "Not enough power? Prince...he has the money, the resources....and he....has the will...to hurt a child...Believe me."
Because he knew.

"Ace, come on man, pull it together. Alright, I was wrong. Come on, man," she said going over to him. "Look, let's... get you... somewheres..." but where? They were in the middle of Manhattan! She looked around, but it seemed that this was a slight problem. "Ace sit down or... somethin'," she said.

"That would be difficult, considering im already sitting down." He pointed out weakly, his fingers gripping his hair. "God, Prince...Why couldn't he just leave me alone?! Why couldn't...Why couldn't I just....forget about being Daniel Cardoni? Why can't I just be Ace?"

"Look, I dunno... but..." she sighed. "Guess he just wants to make our lives a livin' hell," she said sighing again. "He's doin' a real good job of it too... ya think he did it all on his own?" she asked him. Now was hardly the time for a break down, so... they were gonna try and change the subject.

He bit on his lip, "Doubtful. Leone hardly ever works alone. Someone's helping him, i can almost bet on it. But who would?" He couldn't think of anyone slimy enough to ally with his brother.

"I dunno... I mean... Pulitzer... nah, he wouldn't do it. Weasel? No... too much of an idiot like his nephews..." she kept thinking. "Any ideas?" she asked looking at him. She really couldn't think of a single person.

"Snyder." He murmurred quietly. "Why not? He hates us with a passion." He shrugged, "Im probably way off and reaching for leads that aren't there..."

"Snyder?" Prince said with an odd nervousness in her voice. "Nah, I think ya wrong..." she said shaking her head with a smile. 'I hope ya wrong...' she thought, but didn't say. However... he seemed the only logical answer. "I dunno... we'll hafta see..." she shrugged.
