Thanks! It is great you approve of my AU version.

I am glad that you liked Ezra trying to take over. It was my way of showing that Buck and & Ezra had fixed fences. Being manly men they don't say much *hee*. I do believe that Ezra really doesn't think he'd lose either - otherwise I'm not sure he would do it.

I always felt it was a bit silly that Buck even held his own with Don Paolo after a three hour lesson from Nathan.

Next part soon - but I'm without power and part three is trapped on the home computer.

Thanks Again
