The girls did as told and practiced their deep voices till the guys said they sounded like guys. They walked on till they got to the docks in Brooklyn. They walked to the end of the dock where a skinny, kinda short guy was perched.

"Well if it ain't Jack-be-nimble, Jack-be-quick. What brings ya ta Brooklyn?," said the guy as he jumped down in front of the guys.

"Heya Spot. Looks like ya moved up in da woild. Riverside view and evert'ing. How's it rollin'?," replied Jack as he and Spot spitshook.

*Spot! Dat's da infamous Spot!*, thought Storm. *I could take 'im. 'E's so skinny.*

Spot said hi and spitshook with Mush, Blink, and Race. Then he reached Storm and Digger.

"What's dis, Jacky-boy? New boys or somet'ing?," asked Spot as he glared at the girls with his piercing blue eyes.

"Dat's Storm and dat's Diggea. Jist joined us," replied Jack, hoping Spot wouldn't realize they were girls. He'd give Jack h*** for it if he did.

"Heya, I'se Spot Conlon," said Spot as he spit in his hand and held it out to Storm as if challenging her to do the same.

"Hi," said Storm as she did the same never looking away from his blue eyes afraid he'd see that as a weakness.

He did the same thing with Digger who did the same as Storm. Storm couldn't help but notice Spot's lean but muscular build and his blond hair mostly covered by his hat. She saw his slingshot and elaborately decorated cane. The only thing that scared her was his blue eyes that seemed to stare into your soul and the all-too-serious look on his face. He was definitely handsome.

*Why was Mush so worried?*, thought Storm.

"One t'ing dat's botherin' me, Jack," said Spot as he turned his attention back to Jack. "And dat's da Bronx and Harlem's stupid fight. We need ta get dem ta stop fightin'. Dey's goin' overboard wid dis."

Jack visibly calmed as he and Spot started talking about the fight that had been going on between the Bronx and Harlem. Since the year before, not very long after the strike. A newsie from Harlem had been found selling in the Bronx and the Bronx newsies soaked the guy. Ever since Harlem and the Bronx had been fighting. Recently, they had found a newsie from the Bronx dead in the park. The Bronx was currently plotting their next attack.

As Jack and Spot talked, Race and Mush started introducing Storm to some of the Brooklyn newsies while Blink and Digger flirted shamelessly. It was starting to get late so Jack and the guys said goodbye and led the girls toward Manhattan.
