Erin, Kim, and Jack split up and started hawkin headlines in
different
directions. About an hour later they finished selling all of their papers. They

After a quick lunch and conversations with Race, Kid Blink and other Newsies,
Erin and Kim were off to Manhattan. Not noticing the two boys behind them. Kim
and Erin were talking about how good their life has been since leaving the
orphanage. Just before walking off the Brooklyn Bridge in to Brooklyn Kim looked
down and saw that her shoe was untied.
"Erin holds on a sec. I have to ties me shoe."
"Alriights, just hurry up or else wese are goins to be late."
Just as Kim finished tieing her shoe and was getting up a boy who Jack
pointed out earlier to be one of the Delancy Brothers banged in to her.
"Yo, youse shouln stop in da middle of da street Lil twirps!"
"Hey!!!! Watch weres youse are goin. You almost knocked over me sis."
Kim and Erin got up and started to head towards the end of the docks were they
had spotted Jack with a kid who looked to be about a couple of years older then
them with a cane and a sling shot in his hand.
~~~~Meanwhile~~~~
"Jack so youse are telling me that youse have a girl newsies that are supposed
to be really good fighters. Yea right I really only know one girl that knows how
to sell papes and I don't really know if she can fight."
"Well I have not actually seen them fight yet but they says that they are
really good."
"Well youse know what I say jacky-boy, I won't believe it till ise sees
it."
Jack let out an exasperated sigh and turned around to look to see if the girls
were on their way. Just to his luck they were. But what surprised him more was
the fact that the Delancy Brothers were following them.
"Spot youse see those to goils headin towards us those are the girls I was
tawkin aboutse."
"Why are the Delancy Brothers following them?"
"I dona knowse but I think wese got troubles." Seeing one of them knock
over Kim.
Spot and Jack started to head in that direction.
~~~~Kim and Erin~~~~
All to soon after they started to head down the docks the delancy brothers hit
them each in their backs.
Kim turned around and started yellin! "Youse knowse if youse dona stop that
we are goin to soak youse!!!"
Morris be the smart alec that he is retorted back. "What can a pair of goils
do to us?"
That was the last straw for Kim and Erin's temper. They both glanced at each
other and before you knew it they were throwing punches at Oscar and Morris. The
brothers couldn't even get a shot in. At the same time they punched the
brothers in the head and Oscar and Morris collapsed to the ground unconscious.
Just as they fell to the ground Jack and Spot came up behind them.
"Are youse guys ok?" Jack asked.
"what did I tell youse Jack? We don't take nuthin from nobody and we can
handle ourselves." Erin said in a joking matter
"Yea Ise forgot. Erin. Kim. I like youse to meet the leader of the Brooklyn
newsie Spot Conlon."
Kim and Erin spit in their hands and stuck them out towards Spot. He did the
same and shook hands with them. All this time he was thinking about how theses
goils were great fighters and could be come some of his best pals.
"So do youse see what Ise was tawkin about now Spot." Jack asked.
"Yea Jacky boy I do."
Turnin back to Erin and Kim. "I have this goil that is a newsie for me that

"That will bes great, but right now wese promised that wese would meet Race
