The combination of gravity and the sucking air of the portal raised the hairs on Kit's arms. She kept her eyes close the entire time. She felt her body swirling and the cold air swirling all around her. She felt a strong sense of De Ja Vu.

The portal opened up back on the same sidewalk that she was on when the first portal got her. This time, she landed on her knees. It was a good thing she had on a long skirt or she would've had some serious scabs.

"Oh my God!" A familiar voice exclaimed.

Kit look up and saw Laurel whose mouth was gaped open like an O. She was holding her heart in shock and was white with astonishment. Kit smiled with relief of seeing a familiar face.

"What the hell? Charlotte is that you?" Laurel asked.

Kit got up and hugged her friend. When the hug ended Laurel started to bombard her with questions.

"Girl, what happened? What was that blue thing? I was worried when you didn't show up at the subway and you weren't answering you phone. I was waiting for you for two hours. It was mad awkward. Anyways, I was heading over to your house to see if everything was all right. What happened?" Laurel asked again.

Kit contemplated on how on Earth she was going to explain it all to her best friend. Before she could even start to explain, Laurel said.

"What the flocka are you wearing?"

Kit laughed.

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you." She answered.

"Try me." Laurel said as she put her arm around her friend.

Kit did the same and they headed back towards Kit's house. I guess that it's Charlotte now. Kit is a part of her life that she'll never forget. All the good times and all the tragedies, she will remember always. All the enemies and friends she made along the way. Its all a lesson learned. She won't forget to live up to Blink and all the other newsies that risked their lives for her. They strolled down the block in the summer sun. This was an adventure that will change the future of Charlotte forever.

On June 30, 2012 at 11:37 A.M, Charlotte Ocompo went on the journey of her life through the portal that mysteriously brought back to that same day and month of the year 1900. She stayed there for 3 months of their time. On September 27, 1900 at 1:42 A.M. she left the year 1900 through another portal and arrived back to her time on the day June 30, 2012 at 2:03 P.M.

THE END

(Not quite)

Epilogue~~

Charlotte was in her last period History class. She was bored out of her mind and was playing around with her golden pocket watch, a past time she did quite often when bored. A faint smile reached her lips when she thought back to when she learned how to pickpocket with Stitch, Race, and Decks. It felt so long ago, but it was only a couple of months. Pulling her out of her daydreams, she heard her teacher say something about the Newsboys of New York. Charlotte sat upright in her chair and paid attention, intrigued at this topic.

"The Newsboy Strike of 1899 was the newsies' rebellion against the notorious Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst increasing the newspaper sales to the newsies. It was held by the youths themselves and the strike lasted for two whole weeks. The strike was led by no other than the famous Kid Blink (sorry Disney) who won the crowds over with his charismatic speeches. . ."

The teacher then went on about the other forms of child labor in addition to the newsies. Her teacher went on and on about the treacherous conditions the children, most of who younger than Charlotte, had to work in. She talked about how child labor is still popular today, but not as significant as back then. Charlotte found herself to be outraged about the idea of illegal child labor and how hard life could be for some children living on the streets. It wasn't fair. She decided at that very moment, that something had to be done and she was the one who was going to change it.

The End.
