Chapter 30

"Hey, where's Blink and Sunny?"

Jack, Race, Bristles, and Hope had looked around the whole Lodging House, but nowhere could they find the patch eyed newsie, nor the black haired one.

Bristles and Hope started to panic. "What do you think happened to them?"

But Jack and Race had no hint of panic on their faces, instead, it was replaced by two huge grins.

"Blink shoah knows how to get 'em, doesn't he?"

At first, Hope looked surprised, then slowly, she started to smile too. Bristles was still in a panic.

"What's wrong with all of you? Blink and Sunny might be in some kind of trouble! We should try to go and find them!"

Race burst out laughing. "Bristles, da only people dat would be in trouble is us if we search for them, especially if we find them!"

Bristles' face had confusion written all over it. "Us? But, if they really are in trouble, then…"

"Aww, c'mon, Bristles, what kind of trouble could dey be in? Ya know dat Blink's been havin his eye on Sunny for a while,"

Her eyes widened. "you mean…"

Jack chuckled. "what else?"

Bristles thought about that. "well, I guess, if they're just…well, alright, I guess they wouldn't be in any kind of trouble. Maybe I'm just thinking too much."

Jack nodded. "Don't always get so tense, youah boithday's almost heah! Loosen up! Now let's get ready ta sell some papes."

Bristles nodded and strained a smile. The four newsies were just heading out the door, when Sunny ran in screaming.

"Blink! Blink!"

Jack grabbed the girl newsie and shook her. "Calm down, Sunny, what happened?!"

Sunny stopped screaming and breathed heavily.

"Blink…Grinds…caught…."

Sunny stopped her mumbling and fainted.
