"Higgins, Meyers, Blink" said Spot "How many times do I hafta ta tell
ya ta stay on ya side of da bridge?"
"Maybe I should ask ya da same question Conlon" hissed Blink "Stay
away from Sunshine"
Smirks looked over at Spot.
"Sunshine is spoken fer" said Racetrack "Jus how do ya tink Kelly
would react when he found out dat ya been terrorizin his baby sista?"
"Sunshine!" yelled Hades "Where ya been kid?"
Susnhine smiled and touched the necklace the lay around her heart.
"No where, and everywhere" replied Sunshine Smiling.
Aww, though Hades, Sunshine's in love.
"Sunshine!" yelled Stress "Have ya seen Track?"
"Not since yestaday" replied Sunshine "Why?"
"Deres a ruma goin around dat deres gonna be a fight tonite" replied
Stress running her hands through her hair "We was just tryin to
account for the missing newsies"
Spot looked over at Smirks who was busy punching Mush and smiled.
Just like him and Malice, Smirks thrived on the adrenaline of a
fight. Mush looked at her in shock as a swift kick knocked the stout
young boy to his knees.
"Hey Conlon" she yelled "Hows it goin?"
Spot looked up from Racetrack's face and smiled.
"I've 'ad betta"
Pain, that what Smirks felt as Mush plunged a piece of broken glass
deep into her side. Her knees buckled under her and she touched her
hand to her side.
"SMIRKS!!" yelled Fiddle running up to her.
Smirks looked up into the pained blue eyes of his and smiled.
"Don't worry Fid" she whispered "Jus a scratch"
Spot slammed his fist into Racetrack's smug face, then ran over to
Smirks's side.
"Git outta here" said Malice "Don eva come back"
Spot looked down at Smirks.
"Ya okay kid?" he asked.
"Shoah" she whispered.
He sat with her head in his lap, stroking her long red hair. This
couldn't be happening, Smirks was his best friend. She had stuck by
him from the beginning. She understood him, understood why he could
be happy one moment then the next be overcome by sadness.
"Sunshine!" yelled Jack as he ran into the bunk room.
He ran up to her and embraced her.
"Oh thank god, your okay" he whispered.
"Jack! Foist of all, ya cuttin da circulation off, and second of all
what is goin on?"
"Smirks is dead" whispered Jack "MUsh Killed 'er, We'se expectin
retaliation any time"
Sunshine swore under her breath. Smirks?
"I need ya ta stay here" whispered Jack.
"Okay"
Later That Day...
Sunshine sat cross legged on her bed idly sketching Spot in her
journal. She couldn't help wondering what was going on out there. She
kept standing up and looking out the window, expecting to Spot to
climb up.
"Ya killed Her" said Spot.
Mush looked at Spot, and watched in horror as Spot raised a gun up to
his face.
"Ya killed Smirks".....
ya ta stay on ya side of da bridge?"
"Maybe I should ask ya da same question Conlon" hissed Blink "Stay
away from Sunshine"
Smirks looked over at Spot.

Pain, that what Smirks felt as Mush plunged a piece of broken glass

"SMIRKS!!" yelled Fiddle running up to her.
Smirks looked up into the pained blue eyes of his and smiled.
"Don't worry Fid" she whispered "Jus a scratch"
Spot slammed his fist into Racetrack's smug face, then ran over to
