Here is the first drabble of the Newsies Shorts. This one is for Stress and it has Jack and Davey in it. I think this one is really funny because of the fact that I had to go back and watch the scene where Pulitzer jacked the prices up just for ONE line! But I really like this one!

Stress' Newsies Short

It was 1899, the turn of the century and Stress was excited about the ongoing newsie strike. She was down right serious on getting the newspapers to suffer. And that's when it started. Stress ran into the street and yelled out, "Pulitzer and Hearst, they think we're nothin'! Are we nothin'?"

"Stress, what are ya doin'?" Jack asked from behind her.

"Oh, heya Jack!" Stress smiled.

"What are ya doin'?" He asked again.

"Looks like she's trying to steal your lines Jack," Davey chimed in.

"Me? No, I wouldn't!" She replied with a sweet smile on her face and batted her green and yellow cat eyes.

"You know, Jack, that's the fourth time this week that she's done this!" Davey added.

"Ya know, Davey, I think youse right. Stress, if you don't stop stealin' my lines, I'm gonna have to do somethin' about it," Jack warned.

"Oh yeah? And what's that?" Stress stood on her tip toes and put her hands on her hips.

"Alright! Let me think about it!" Jack backed off some.

Stress took her eyes off of Jack for a second and Davey handed Jack a bucket filled with water.

"Hey Jack, you done thinkin' yet?" Stress faced Jack again and asked with a smile.

"Hey Race! Stress is over here stealin' your lines!" Davey yelled as he ran to get Racetrack.

"Alright, Stress, I got it!" Jack said.

"And what is it?" Stress put her hands on her hips again.

Jack just smiled and walked up to Stress with his hands behind his back.

"I'm gonna soak ya!" Jack pulled out the bucket of water and splashed the water on Stress.

The End
