The bluecoats did have their hands full, and most every copper in Tycho City was already stationed inside dome four. I marveled at the volume. For that much noise, I knew safety protocol had been ignored and both pressure doors were open.
How else could the coppers manage that big a crowd? High above the domes, A Wells Fargo shuttle appeared. Then I caught movement from the corner of my eye. A hopper climbing away from the alley next to the theater. Even so, you hang around another man, you come to recognize him no matter what he wears.
It can be any one of a hundred little things. The way he sits. The way he turns his head. The way he touches at his hair. Something about the fellow on the hopper made me wonder if it truly was my friend. Then, when they cleared the roof of the theater, sunlight caught a roll of golden hair tucked beneath the back brim of the bowler.
He was a much bigger man. I stepped off the curb and hurried across the empty street. It would be a waste of time to go to Goodkind Square. A second hopper sat outside the stage door. A discarded tarp lay nearby. I fiddled at it with the hardened-steel picks I always carried, heard the tumblers click into place, and pushed the door aside. No one was there, at least not back-stage.
From the sound of it, I wondered if there was anyone inside. Even so, I moved with as much stealth as I could manage, creeping across the stage, expecting a spotlight to snap onto me at any moment. Only a few work lights were burning, and all I heard was the shuffle of my shoe soles on regolith. The cavernous space beyond the proscenium lay draped in shadow.
It felt real empty. Then I heard a voice. I closed my eyes and held my breath so long I almost put down roots. At last, the voice came again, from the balcony. It rumbled like a kettle drum. I hurried from the stage, slinking from shadow to shadow on the far wall until my fingers brushed across an inset hinge. Careful inspection found two more hinges and the latch. I pulled the latch an inch; heard the lock click free. In the empty theater, the sound seemed thunderous, but no one came. I was alone in the building, except for Elijah and whoever he had spoken to.
I needed answers, even if it meant I had to risk him beating the tar out of me to get them. So I slipped through the door and tiptoed up the narrow stairs. Dim light from Tesla tubes inset into every riser lit my way. I found myself on a small landing.
I worked another latch, eased onto the balcony, and tiptoed along the back wall. Then I heard another voice. They were playing gin rummy, a card game the Kid had tried to teach me once. After the first few games, I had refused to play with him. It seemed too much like one of his flim-flam schemes. I had to take the chance the two of them were alone. I drew the derringer, and a deep breath, then turned the door-knob. Luck was with me. The door swung in and I followed. They were seated at a small table. The Kid faced me, his back to the far wall, wearing nothing but a union suit.
He had been tied to his chair, but his hands were free. Three bodies lay stacked like cordwood against a side wall. Right off, I recognized the rigging foreman. The other two wore long-johns, too. They had to be the missing hopper cops. He fell backwards; rolled with the chair still tied to him. Elijah slapped a hand on the table to catch his balance and it collapsed beneath his weight.
I roared right back, firing both barrels. The second bullet tore away a big flap of his cheek. On the way, I juggled my two extra cartridges from my vest. I had practiced the move over the years, so I managed to slid in the second shell as I reached the bottom rail. I turned, fighting to control my breath and my quivering hands, and aimed the pistol. He stopped halfway down the steps and studied me.
The big man toppled toward me. I ducked; he dropped over me, landing with his belly on the rail. Before he could grab ahold, I jammed my shoulder into his thighs and heaved. A man can walk away from a fall on the Moon that would have killed him back on Earth, but the balcony was high and Elijah carried too much extra weight. I swear the building quivered as he slammed into the wood-and-metal seats and regolith below. Then I heard a noise from below.
Elijah lay twisted on the seats below, bent and broken, to be sure, but very much alive. He fumbled about him, trying to get back to his feet. A sound came from him, a deep-pitched wheeze, as if a steam fitting was about to blow. It set my teeth on edge. Elijah looked up at us. Gears clashed, chewing at each other.
His left arm quivered, but nothing moved. I heard them talking. She knows how to fly a hopper. Jack, she laughed at me. That twenty years was a long time. That I was a fool if I thought we could have what we had all those years ago. She said the three of them come here to teach us all a lesson; to put Goodkind in his place.
They want to kill the President. Goodkind, too, if they get lucky, and scare folks away from Tycho City. The Kid just kept on talking.
It finally came together. The Kid climbed onto the pinion saddle and slapped the seat in front of him. Three steps to the hopper. I climbed aboard, hit the power switches for the Goodkind disks, and slid my toes beneath the safety bars. We climbed in silence the first few seconds, then the Kid stretched his arm across my shoulder, pointing. They were up near the center ridge of the dome, close to the crater rim. Just what Tanner was counting on, I expect.
I goosed the throttle and we gained speed. The hopper wobbled and almost over-turned; the Kid jerked his arm back and snatched at the panic bars. Sweetwater was bent over the controls, doing a damned fine job. Tanner was standing on the pinion seat, his hands above his head, fiddling with a lumpy package the size of a loaf of bread. I knew enough about explosives to know a bomb that size could open up a nasty hole.
I spotted Goodkind, holding an acoustical up to his ear. He would call for help, no doubt of that, but it would come too late. I eased my hopper away and leaned back to the Kid. Right off, I saw Tanner had the safety straps hooked to his belt, but he had done them up wrong. Her hopper slide sideways and bumped into mine. Tanner flailed his arms, trying to keep his balance. As he twisted, one of his straps pulled free from its bindings and he tumbled from the pinion seat.
The second strap held, so he wound up dangling above that awful drop. His weight and movement pulled at the hopper. Her hopper rolled away from us, wallowing like some floundering dinghy caught in heavy waves. The hopper continued to roll. Sweetwater stretched out one arm, all the while battling the controls. She slashed again; the strap parted with a high-pitched crack and Tanner dropped away, screaming as he fell. Without his hanging weight, the hopper rolled back into place. Sweetwater dropped the knife after him, drew a breath, and steadied the controls.
She turned then, and I saw that gleam of playfulness in her eyes again. She glanced up at the bomb. And none of us knew a thing about trapeze. And it came to me why she was admitting everything. Did you really think I came back so you could save me, after all these years? That man created his own fiefdom here; you are all his vassals. Trying to keep me talking, until the cavalry arrives. She pulled a pistol from the uniform belt, drew a bead on the bomb, and fired off a shot.
The bullet ricocheted from a girder. Sweetwater fired another shot; this one struck home. He soared from one hopper to the other, in as elegant a dive as I have ever seen. His long arms wrapped around Sweetwater just as she fired again. The shot went wide and she cursed him for the fool she thought he was, even as his momentum carried the two of them away.

The coppers dismantled all four bombs. City fathers wanted to erect a monument in Center Park. I argued for something simpler; told them the Kid would have been embarrassed by a twenty-foot-tall statue.
