Notes:
This will be the last chapter for a while. I've written Chapter 23 already but I want to catch up. So that means that my next post may not be for a while but it will have Chapters 18,19,20,21 and 22 up. I'm posting 23 last just cause...well cause :D
...Rabbit. I'm glad to see I'm getting reviews from different people as well as some who have been reading for a while. All of them are wonderful :D
Thanks for your review. Hee hee a lot of people seem to like Reina's little mantra ^.~
...AngelicOne and thus you now KNOW his plan DEFINITELY did NOT work out. As for mantras...mine would be much more vulgar...prolly around the lines of "I will not kidnap and do VERY bad things to Spot" XD
I was glad to review your story. Please keep it up. It's coming along nicely :D
...Princessred your posts always make me giggle. Spot will NOT be a hitman so have no fear...as for your centuries late husband...can we share? :D

Chapter 17 ~ Feeling Regret
Spot sat in a chair back at the lodging house. He had spent at least an hour trying to find Kitty, but it was to no avail. She was really gone.
Spot Conlon knew well enough who that man worked for.
Mister Edward Vanderbelt. Owner of the hush-hush Scarlett Bordello. Spot had seen the missing ads and heard stories from other newsies. Their girls would mysteriously disappear. On some instances, once the girls were used up and abused to their fullest, they dumped them off. Many wound up dying.
This wasn't the first run in Spot had with Mr. Vanderbelt.
As if adding fuel to that thought, Kid walked in.
His jade eyes fixed icily upon Spot. "...Yous...just gimme ONE reason why I shouldn't soak yous..."
Spot looked at Kid calmly and stood. He dropped his cane to the floor, which he had been gripping and rubbing nervously since Kitty's abduction.
Spot held up his hands. "I desoive it..."
Kid only glared and crossed his arms. "So when are we's goin to get 'er back?" Kid demanded. His voice left no room for argument.
Spot looked away. He had mixed feelings on everything and had no idea where to even start. Worse yet he felt like a traitor in some way...and Spot Conlon HATED traitors.
All the newsies in the Brooklyn lodging house knew by now of what had happened. It looked very bad for Spot...
Kid then leaned closer, his gaze now deathly. "...Don't let hoir end up like Moira..."
Spot looked back into Kid's face and challengingly spat "Don't yous EVER compare Moira to any odda goil..."
At that Kid's glare softened from deathly to just angry. "Well...fine. But I's AM goin ta get hoir back..."
Spot hissed for a moment in mock surprise. "Psh...dat one's a real shocka..."
Kid moved in to either punch Spot or mutilate him but Spot held up a hand. "I'se ain't argueing...I'll go. But only because I's KNOW what dat place is like...and I'se KNOWS what happened to Moira..." Spot smoothed out his clothes and ran one hand through his hair. He bent down and grabbed his cane, throwing it up a bit then grabbing it and sliding it into his belt. "No one desoives dat..."
Kid nodded. The decision had been made.
Spot put his feelings and thoughts of confusion aside. All he needed now was his cane at his side and his slingshot. Part of him was actually excited to be able to have some action. It seemed like it had been forever since he decently soaked someone. Despite the seriousness of the situation, Spot grinned. "'Ere comes Brooklyn..."
