"You've got until Tuesday…You pay, or you die. Got it?"

A scared and fast nod was the common answer in his line of work.

He didn't enjoy it, nor did hate it.

"You shouldn't be so lenient with them."

He turned towards his friend. "You shouldn't toy with them."

A hand shot out to stop him. "Don't get soft on me Troy."

"They're pawns Troy. We need them."

He opened his car door. "No Ty, you need them." He sighed and took a quick look around. "Don't forget, we've got a shipment coming in tomorrow."

He got in and before he shut the door. Tyler stopped him. "Come to the club tonight."

"Why?"

Tyler grinned. "Just come. I guarantee you won't regret it."

Troy sighed. "Fine, I'll see you there."
