Nightshade wasn't the least bit enjoying the sun that shone brightly down
at her. At any other day she would, but today she didn't even think at the
sun shining. Her thoughts were on the docks were she should meet this Spot-
guy in half an hour. From the speaks of her girls to judge he was an
arrogant, egoistically brad. Just to use the words that are childsafe. Out
of all Fury had made clear that she hated him desperately.
Nightshade sighed. This sure wasn't like she had planned this day to be.
The last thing she could need was a guy who thought he would rule the
world. She knew from earlier experiences that it would be almost impossible
to get to such a guy. The last time, she had to fight. But this was
something she didn't want to do again. Before that, she would leave. Yeah,
she wanted to finally stay in one place but she didn't want to end up in a
war. She had already made that mistake once. And had paid for that. Three
of her friends had paid with their lives and she herself had gotten some
wounds that had taken some time to heal. No! Never again.
Spot sat at the docks looking over the east river. He was thinking about these girls, he didn't know how often he had done since he had heard of them. He had a bad feeling about them. They were pig-headed, arrogant, and worst of all, they didn't seem to care WHO he was! This couldn't be good! Out of all when he thought at the black haired girl. He knew her from somewhere! He just wasn't sure yet where from. He looked up to see Runner standing in front of him. "She's here." Spot looked at his watch and nodded his head. It was exactly five. "I heard you wanted to see me?" This voice! Where had he heard it before?! He looked up again and came face to face with his past. His eyes widened for just a fraction of a second before he narrowed his eyes at her again.
Nightshade didn't like to walk through the guys that were on the docks. The were at least the double of what a person she was and the looks they were giving her didn't help any. A younger boy with dirty blonde hair came up to her and told her where she could find Spot. She walked up to the boy who was sitting a bit away from the others. "I heard you wanted to see me?" When he looked up at her, her eyes widened in shock and fear. This wasn't true! This couldn't be! She was looking in the same eyes that had scared the hell out of her three years ago. But she had been sure that his eyes had been an icy gray back then. But it was also possible that she was wrong about this. She had tried to push everything from this time far away from her mind. And now. If he was here then..
"I should have known it!" Spot whispered harshly. Nightshade was stepping back. Trying to find a way out of here. Her heartbeat was rising. She could barely breath and her eyes watched Spot with fear to be ready if he tried anything. "Why are you here?" Nightshade swallowed hard. 'Next time, I better listen to the others and let them come with me. What would I give to have Fury here, Or Dagger. Even Hazard would be able to find a way out of here with her brain. Next time. What if there won't be a next time?!' The fear inside of her was growing. And so was Spot's impatience. "Answer me!" He arose from his seat and took a step closer to me. "Don't you dare." Nightshade tried to bring out. "What?!" Spot grinned sarcastically. "You'll send your girls at me?" Nightshade swallowed and tried to regain some of her strength. "The same girls that beat the shit out of your boys." She managed to say in a steady voice, even though she was still trembling. Spot's smile disappeared and Nightshade felt that it had been the wrong words to that time. "Watch what you say!" "Or what? You'll kill me?!" She bite her lips as soon as the words where out. THAT were DEFINITELY the wrong words to say. His eyes narrowed at her. "Leave my city!" "There ain't your name written over it!" "Leave it!" "NO way! We're tired of leaving a city after a few weeks. We're staying" Spot walked closer to her now only inches from her face he stopped. "I don't need any more trouble that you cause me!" The fear in her eyes was more than visible but still she managed to not let it taken control of her.
"We don't cause anyone trouble!" "Stealing from the shops, and in a way that the shopkeepers notice it, is a problem for me!" That gave Nightshade the control over herself back. "So, why didn't they stop us? Didn't you think about that question?" Spot was about to answer her when someone glared his throat lightly behind Spot. He turned around annoyed and glared at Spike, one of his younger newsies. "WHAT?" Spike stepped back and swallowed. "Uh, there's this man who had been robbed. He wants to know if you have any news about the girls." The man pushed through the boys standing on the docks and walked towards Spot. "So? Did you even try to find something out yet or did you just play. here on the. docks all. day?!" Spot raised his eyebrows at the man who was obviously distracted by something behind Spot. He turned around to look at Nightshade who was standing there with her hands on her hips, moving the shirt away from her chest. And the man was now staring at her breasts just as obviously like they all had when the girls had stolen from them. "I'm just about to find out more about it." Spot said when he turned back to the guy which was snapping back into reality. "Hu? Oh, okay, I hope you'll hurry!" With that he went back obviously having some problems with walking while his pants where tight as hell in one part by now. Spot turned back to Nightshade and glared at her. "That way you did it? You opened your shirts a bit and when they were getting hard like hell you took what you wanted?" "Ain't it fair? I bet most of them didn't get hard in a long time!" Nightshade shrugged but couldn't hide a little smile. "You know that it is a very dangerous game you're playing if you walk around here like.that?!" Nightshade's smile faded and she let out a sarcastically laugh. "That ain't a game! That's what I learnt in Cleveland!" Spot twitched slightly when she mentioned his old city. A city full of memories that he tried to forget. He had been somehow glad when Maniac had throw him out of Cleveland. He was better off in Brooklyn anyway. "So, may I go now?" Spot looked up into the sky seeing that dark clouds were coming up. "I have to talk to you tomorrow in my lodging house. At five." "Where the hell is your lodging house? And why does we have to talk again?!" "Runner'll find you and will show you the way. And it's not US who are talking. It's ME!" Nightshade glared but in that moment Spot and his newsies left. "I 'm still afraid of him." Nightshade whispered to herself and sighed. Should she really go tomorrow?
