A/N: Hey guys, this is the real author's note. Because this is satire I will be writing in fake author's notes, in italics and bold like this. If an Author's note is just bold, it is a genuine author's note. My goal with this story is to break as many rules as possible when it comes to writing a good Newsies fan fiction. This is a very long list, but, if you've spent any amount of time in the newsies fan fiction archives(especially the movie version), you will know what I'm talking about. Please enjoy my humble attempt at humor. I will copy this real author's note into each chapter. I own nothing.
Allons-y!
A/N:Hey guys! Here is the summary of this great tale of romance and adventure! (but mostly romance. Squee! :D) Mary Sue Kate Sakura Abigail Kensington III is transported back in time to 1900. She is found in an alley and taken to the lodging house by Kid Blink. Read on to hear her story! I suck at summaries!
Chapter one: Fifteen year old Mary Sue Kate Sakura Abigail Kensington III was sleeping in her 1200 square foot bedroom one fine summer's day. Her porcelain skin was completely unblemished by freckles or acne, which was uncommon for her age. Her hair fell in perfect waves, stopping just below her shoulders, the colour of sun dipped in honey. Her bright violet eyes were closed, and her long, perfect lashes looked like they were covered in mascara, but it was natural. Her lips were a brilliant shade of red, curved softly in a smile as she slept. Mary Sue Kate Sakura Abigail Kensington III was the picture of beauty. Although she did not know this, she was the only great great great great great granddaughter of Spot Conlon. Also, but more distantly, she was a great niece of Medda Larkson, and somehow distantly related to the Delancey brothers that had lived during that time period.
Now, at 5:00 in the morning, her parent's mansion in Santa Fe was shaken by a huge category twenty eight earthquake! The building collapsed, but luckily, Mary Sue was able to jump out the sixth story window of her bedroom into the private pool in their back lawn that was about the size of a football field. She began to swim to the end, calling for help, but to no avail. The earthquake had broken the nearby Kensington Dam that her father had built for her mother, carving his marriage proposal to her on it. With a gift that expensive, of course she said yes. Huge waves of water crashed down on Mary Sue, and if she had not been so good at swimming, she would have definitely have drowned. She swam over to a skyscraper that her mother had built for her father to reply yes to the proposal. Only a few feet of the top remained in the air. Nearby a shark swam through the water. Looking out over the huge expanse of blue, she saw in the distance Mount Mary, which her parents had paid to have it be renamed after their newborn child. The volcano exploded, and hot lava splashed into the water around Mary, and miraculously, none hit her. To the other side of her, a huge funnel cloud full of sharks and toxic waste spun over to her, picking Mary Sue up with it. A huge barrel of toxic waste came flying at her head, and that's all Mary saw before her world went black.

In the year 1900, one year after the strike, Kid Blink was out late one night. He had no idea why, but he felt drawn to leave the lodging house one night, like something important was about to happen that night. Braving the cops, the criminals, and rabid animals that certainly live everywhere in the big city, he set off, walking down the street. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a huge flash of violet light, and a popping sound. Kid Blink decided that this must be the important event he had felt and ran towards it. There, lying in the alley was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. Her wavy hair was wet and parts of it were singed from what appeared to be hot lava, but was still perfect and more golden than a daffodil. Her skin was unmarked and unblemished, and her cheeks were a beautiful shade of pink. Her clothes were a little odd, but clearly expensive, as they were made with satin and silk. Upon further inspection, the girl appeared to be unconscious. Kid Blink scooped her up effortlessly in his muscled arms and ran all the way back to the Lodging House. Not wanting to wake up the others, Kid Blink set the girl down in his bed and slept on the floor like a true gentleman.
The next morning, Jack woke up to see that across the room from him, slept a girl in Kid Blink's bed. (A/N: Sorry if I got the bed placements wrong, but I feel like I can write a decent fan fiction without watching the movie again to see extra details that would be useful in my writing. XD!) Looking down, he saw Kid Blink sleeping on the ground. "Hey Blink, wake up!" he said.
"What?" asked Kid Blink?
"Why's dere a goil in ya bed?"
"I found er in one a da alley outside las' night."
"I know what ya mean, we awl find a goil in an alley sometime. I undastand if ya have ta stay heah taday ta watch 'er. I mean, wit awl da fanfic writahs out dere, dey awlways make us do dat."
"Thanks fah undastandin'"
"Ya welcome." Jack replied, before stepping into the washroom with the other boys to get ready for the day.
Kid Blink sighed, now all alone with the girl. All he could do was wait until she woke up, so that's what he did. After about an hour, the girl sat up and looked straight at him with her inquisitive violet eyes.
"Where am I?" she asked him. She had already decided that she hated the boy.
"Da newsboy's lodging house. I found ya unconcious in an alley, and I couldn' just leave ya dere."
"Newsboys…" she muttered under her breath. " If this is a place for newsboys, why am I here? I am a girl."
"Well, Kloppman didn't see me bring ya in, so I guess we'll just hafta dress ya up like a boy. I forgot ta ask what ya name is?"
"I do not know, but this sapphire encrusted locket says "Mary Sue" on it, so that's what I will call myself. I believe I have amnesia."
Kid Blink explained where and when they were, and a few current events to jog her memory.
The two then began ransacking the lodging house for spare clothes. Once an outfit had been assembled, Mary Sue went into the washroom to put it on. When she came out, she was wearing brown pants, black boots, a yellow shirt and a purple vest. She looked very convincing. All that was left was her hair. Kid Blink handed her a brown newsie hat. Mary Sue tucked all her hair inside perfectly on the first try, and almost looked like she had a boy's hairstyle. Mary Sue hated the boy she was introduced to as Kid Blink, but knew that he was right about her needing to dress up like a boy to stay at the lodging house. Where else was she to go? She didn't know where her parents were, if she had any, much less what they looked like or their names.
"Heah's da deal. Jack's da only one who knows dat you'se a goil. I'll tell Kloppman and da oddahs dat I met ya someweah, and dat ya needed a place ta stay. Dey probably won't ask any questions.
A/N: That's the end of the first chapter!
That's a lot for reading this! Hope you enjoy the story so far,
