Disclaimer: I do not own newsies I do own Madison though
The beginning
Rain, and snow. That's all one girl saw, sitting in an alley and staring at nothing. Why me, how did I get from having a family… to this? She fingered the locket she wore around her neck. This…..this is all I have left. She opened it to see four smiling faces staring up at her. She had been an orphan for five days now after her house burned down, taking her family's lives as well. Nice Madison, your family died and all you did was run, Good job, well, I need work, that's for sure. Now to find it. Madison jumped up and started walking around trying to find work.
"Can I have a job?" The door slammed shut. "No, K. Great that has to be the thousandth I've tried! Now what?" The sun had just risen and the shouts of "Extry, Extry, read all about it!" were herd everywhere now. I have to be a boy.
Madison had found boy's pants, boots and a shirt and put them on. "Well, a bit loose but that's perfect!" She pinned her curls up and put on the hat. "Pretty good." She walked out into the streets and wondered around until she found the distribution center. "Um…20 papes." "10 cents" grumbled Wiesel. "Wadda you standin here for kid, move it!" "Sorry, no need to be edgy" Madison sat on the steps to read the headlines until someone blocked the sunlight. "Will you move it!" She said, remembering to keep her voice low. "I'se Jack Kelly, jus who might you be?"
"I'm….Clark" Madison said, thinking of her last name. "Huh, Clark is it? Ok well, I'm leader of dese heah parts an no one can be a newsie heah without me sayin, K'" "K" Jack nodded, "Well why don' I show you da ropes"
A few hours later, and Madison had pretty much learned how to do it. "Tomorrow I'll take you ta see Spot, he's da leader in Brooklyn. For now you jus follow me to da lodging house."
With that he turned and started walking away. Madison paused, then ran to catch up.
