"Medda, Another Round!" yelled Jack.
They were all doing what they could to make the night last forever. Deep in their hearts, they all knew that this could possibly be the last time they'd be together.
"Look at 'im" said Quipster pointing at the small group of children that had fallen asleep on the floor of the hall on top of the over shirts of their fathers and the men they called Uncles.
"Yeah" replied Moth "dey so cute when dere asleep"
"Jack" whispered Stress "Maybe we should move dem some where quieter?"
"Yeah" replied Jack kissing his wife on the top of her head. "All right boys, grab 'em"
Jack picked up his youngest daughter Annie and nudged his son Noah awake
"Come on son" he whispered grabbing his hand.
Itey picked up Katie Lee, Bella and Swifty, four year old daughter.
"Ya miss 'er don't ya?" asked Legend seeing the sad way Revolution gazed at Katie.
"Yeah, I do," replied Revolution.
"We all miss 'er," said Martini.
Bella and Swifty had been sailing to England for their anniversary on a beautiful ocean liner called The Lusitania when German torpedoes sank it. They had left Katie with Revolution. Revolution knew that most of the boys went to war to avenge them.
"Katie's goin ta stay with Stress and Jack" said Itey when the boys came back "Sha'll we go home, Mrs. Martino?"
"Most Certainately. Mr. Martino" said Revolution giggling into her hand.
"Oooo" said the newsies as the newlyweds left Irving Hall hand in hand.
"Are ya noivous?" asked Pixie.
"A little" replied Holiday "But I'm sorta excited too"
Holiday and Gypsy were shipping out with the boys. They were joining the Red Cross as nurses.
Pixie rubbed her pregnant stomach and smiled. In many ways she wished that she too could go there. The young woman still craved adventure much like she had when she was little.
"Pix?" asked Crutchy "Ya ready to go home?"
"Yes dear" replied Pixie holding out a hand so that Crutchy could help his very pregnant wife up.
"See ya tommorow?" asked Holiday.
"Of Course" replied Crutchy.
The Next Day..
Revolution looked at Itey as the bright sunlight streamed across his face. She sighed and tucked her head back into the safety of his arms.
"Love, its time"
"No, your wrong" said Revolution "Its still yesterday,"
"No, its is time" said Itey.
"Daddy?" asked Annie "Ya will come back right? Not like Katie's daddy"
"I will be back" said Jack "I swear"
He looked at his sad wife and kissed her.
"I swear" he whispered into her ear.
Yeah? Carryin Da Banner, Revolution
