Newsies Taken Thus Far: Crutchy, Snoddy, Snitch, Skittery, Specs, Dutchy

I guess nobody got that E. Nesbit reference... ah, gone are the days of the old classics... for those of you who have no idea what I'm droning on about, E. Nesbit was a writer in the early 1900's who wrote books for kids. And they were really awesome. You should read them. The line I used was from "The Railway Children". When Spot says "Wake up! Speak to me! For my sake!" that's from that book. :)

Those Who Won Points:

Christina Conlon- 22 points (you made it into this chapter!)

Killer Bananas- 22 points

LucyOfNarnia-29 points

Sunshine Conlon: 10 points (I'm counting the "I say that what you say is what I say" quote that you said you got)

Flyspecks- 10 points (on the assumption that you got that "I say that what you say is what I say" quote) And Acorn is Killer Bananas. And she is cool! ;) People who like minor characters are cool.

Wow! You guys are doing awesome! Love you and your reviews. They really do make my day.

Continued from last chapter...

"now spoty deerst" giggled HORIBOL, stroking his hair (she'd made him wash it with her awful-smelling perfume-shampoo), "i rely didnt want 2 brig ths up but thre r sum boros tht r makin trubol"

"yea i no" Spot heaved a melodramatic sigh and HORIBOL fainted from his hott-ness.

"wel wut r u gona do abowt it" She asked.

"idk" Spot shrugged.

"ummm thts not vry gud" HORIBOL frowned.

"nope it isnt but thts ok bcuz i hav u"

HORIBOL fairly killed him with the kiss she gave him for that comment. Neither of them were smart enough to realize that they hadn't resolved the problem.

"Crutchy," Giggles asked soberly, looking in through the window at the two of them in revulsion, "do you think I could ever be like that? Do think I could ever be a 'Sue?"

"'Course not, Giggles!" Crutchy looked very angry at the thought.

"Hey, look there!" Birds, who had suddenly appeared, snickered. "It's our cold-hearted leader, Spot Conlon!"

"You know," said Fly, who was standing next to Snoddy, "I used to admire him."

Acorn agreed. "You know, he was quite a decent chap before he was 'Sue-ifyed." Snitch nodded. He didn't speak because his thumb was firmly imbedded in his mouth.

"Hey guys..." It was a small, rather plump-ish, extremely adorable fourteen-year-old. She was gazing at them shyly. "My... my name is Cheese... this is my little brother Snipeshooter. He was tortured by 'Sues at the poor tender age of ten years because he is a minor character. I was just wondering if we could join your club."

"Yeah!" Crutchy and Giggles said simultaneously. "That'd be great!"

Suddenly, about twenty 'Sues all descended upon them on a pink cloud with purple sparkles and the names of all the hottest guys all over it. They were greatly wroth.

"leev now & nevr cum bak11" they screeched. "u r leik toatly destrying our craeer11!"

"What career was that?" muttered Fly.

"teh nobol sistrhud of 'sues11" they screamed, turning their wrath on Fly. Luckily, Snoddy jumped in front of her and was able to deflect the shower of dangerous, toxic, poisonous, and deadly pink sparkles shooting down at them.

"Sounds like my worst nightmare." remarked Giggles.

The pink sparkles turned on her. Crutchy jumped in front of her and Cheese jumped in front of him and Snipeshooter jumped in front of her and Acorn jumped in front of him and Snitch jumped in front of her and...

...Out of nowhere...

...Came another young person, hurtling towards them...

To be continued...
