1 Chapter One
Jack and Spot were on their way from Manhattan to Brooklyn. They were in a hurry because it had began to snow a while ago and it was already like a storm. They went along an alley when they saw something in it catching their eyes.
"Hey Spot, that looks like a girl!" Jack pointed at her. They walked up to her and noticed what had happened. Spot lifted her up and looked at Jack.
"I wanna know what sort of guy can do somethin' like that to a girl!" He carried her to the Brooklyn Lodging house.
"Ey Split, get a doc for her!" Split a boy around eleven nodded and ran outside to get a doctor. Spot carried the girl up in his room and laid her down.
"Do you know her?" Jack asked him.
"No, she isn't from Brooklyn, that's for sure." The doctor came in and sent Spot and Jack out of the room. When he came out Spot asked him if she would make it.
"Yes. She is strong. But you can figure out what happened to her. The guy who raped her did it with a brutality, which I haven't seen often before. Also the wounds of the knife are bad. And she was out in the cold snow a long time. But as I said she will make it. You have to keep her warm. She will probably awaken tomorrow, maybe already tonight. But she have to rest for three weeks, at least. And the bandages have to be renewed every third day. Oh yeah, I had to put her some new clothes on. I took the one on the chair in the room."
"Okay, thank you sir!" The doctor nodded and left the lodging house.
Spot walked in the room and sat down on the chair near his bed. Jack stood behind him. It was the first time they could take a good look at her. She had long red hair which was cut in a stepped cut. She had a tan skin and seemed to be very slim, as if she hadn't eaten in days, maybe weeks. She wasn't very big as it seems. Spot wondered what color her eyes were.
"She's pretty, though she's beaten up badly." He said to Jack. Jack nodded when suddenly somebody knocked at the door.
Jack went and opened to let Blue in. The tall boy with blond hair and piercing blue eyes wasn't this long in New York. But he already was Spot's right hand.
"Spot we found two girls out in the streets. They was searching for a-" this second Blue get a sight of the girl in Spot's bed.
"Storm!!!" Spot and Jack looked confused at Blue who kneed down next to the girl.
"You know her?"
"Yeah very good. She was with me and my friends back in Hamburg. She was the girl of my best friend. I wonder what brought her to come. What happened to her?"
"She got rapped. And the guy who did it also hit her with a knife." Blue looked as if he would go and kill someone.
"Did you see who it was?"
"No. Sorry!"
"Maybe she remembers him."
"I'm not sure if we should wish that she can remember, Jack! Blue, what was you gonna to say?"
"That we found two girls. One from Germany, the other from India. Were looking for a friend. I guess it's Storm. They're downstairs."
Spot and Jack left Blue with Storm to look after the new girls.
"Hey Spot. Did Blue tell you?" Daisy, a little girl of nine walked over to him.
"Yeah he did."
"He said you probably heard something about my cousin?" One of the girls spoke. She was tall and had long golden hair and blue eyes. She had a rather fair skin. Spot couldn't believe that this should be a relative of the girl which lay unconscious upstairs in his bed.
"Yeah, she is this height, has fiery red hair and darkbrown eyes." The other girl said. She was absolutely the opposite of the blond. She was small and had a darker skin. Not really black, but darker. Her hair was black and so seemed her eyes.
"Sorry, but we're really worried. We were searching her for hours."
"Yeah, she's here. Blue's up with her. He said he knows her." Jack spoke for Spot.
"I knew he's from german. The accent was to strong." The blond one smiled.
"Do you have names?" Spot asked.
"Oh, yeah, of course. My name's Vivianne Pauline Von Scharf." The blond said. Spot eyes widened. What a name!
"And I'm Sharie Bandeschlahh." The other girl smiled.
"Well, I'm Spot Conlon and this is Jack Kelly."
"So where is my cousin? I want to see her." Spot leaded the girls upstairs to his room. Vivianne gasped and Sharie swallowed.
"What… What?" Sharie couldn't end the sentence but it was obvious what she wanted to say.
"What does it look like?" Spot asked harsh. He couldn't stand these high class girls. And now he should have THREE of them in his house?! Blue looked at the girls.
"Why did you came here?"
"She was searching a friend of her, I guess she meant you! She wanted to tell you something."
"This isn't all!" He said. He knew Storm too well. She wouldn't just jump in an adventure. Whether with boys, as in her life.
"We had problems with our parents."
"Wait! Shall this mean, she was with her father again?!" The girls nodded. Blue fell back in the chair and looked worried at Storm.
"Why?" Jack asked.
"Her father beat her up as long as I can think of it. And I know her my whole life. When she was thirteen, she ran away and stayed with us. I didn't think he would even look for her!"
"Well she isn't very lucky." Spot said dryly remembered everyone of what happened to her this day.
"You." He pointed at the girls. "Stay with Daisy in her room."
"No. I'm not going away from her!" Vivianne's voice became shrill. Storm groaned by hearing the noise and turned lightly. Spot glared at Vivianne and said with a calm voice.
"You're going to stay with Daisy. Your cousin need to rest and I don't believe that it would be good for her to have you her. Besides you'll drive ME crazy!" Vivianne's eyes widened nobody talked to her like that. She was the daughter of one of the richest man in Germany.
But Spot shoved her and Sharie away and called out for Daisy to show them her room.
He turned back to Jack and Blue.
"You go better to sleep, too. I'll watch her." He said and put a hand on Blue's shoulder.
"I'll wake you up, when she's awake!" Blue nodded and Jack and him went to the bunkroom.
