"Well I'm not just going to hide here. If Carolina tries anything, I... we'll deal with it."
He chuckles mirthlessly.
"All of us. York and the others owe me a favor or two. If I have to, I'll just call them in."
He shrugs. He'd like to think they'd help out because they were his 'team' here... but it was good to have insurance. He might think they're good people and he'd fight with them if it came down to it... but that doesn't mean he trusts them. He doesn't really trust anyone.
"I know, but I'm not going to die."
I've already done that, he thought bitterly. Still, he knew what it was like to loose people. Jimmmy and the rest at Sidewinder... Tex (even though he still clung to the hope that she survived somehow). Tucker and Caboose had been shipped off somewhere else. At least he could enjoy the ambiguity of not knowing what happens to them. Harper... well, at least he wasn't going back to his death like the Freelancers here.
