The first rays of sunlight were starting to appear as Vigor opened her eyes
again. Kid Blink was standing next to her. "Get up." He mumbled in a daze
and walked towards the bathroom. Vigor looked around and saw that the other
newsies were moving about. She rolled over to look at Sassy, who was still
asleep.
"Sassy!" Vigor got out of bed and walked over to her. She shook her shoulders. "Sassy, get up!"
"Huh, wha . . . ? I don't wanna go to school!"
"I don't think you'll have to worry about that. Now get up and help me wake the others!" Vigor pulled Sassy out of bed.
"Oh, this is ridiculous!" Sassy complained. "What time is it?" Vigor thought back to what Kid Blink had said.
"I don't know, but we have to act like this doesn't bother us though or they'll think we're up to something." Sassy rolled her eyes.
"Great. Okay, I'll wake up Harmony, you get Angel up." Sassy said and went to wake up Harmony. Kloppman came in to make sure everyone was up. Once he was positive that everyone was, he left the room. Jack came over to the girls after everyone was dressed and ready for work.
"All right, I thought 'bout dis last night. I'm gonna send each one of you wit a different newsie today so that you get the general idea, 'kay? So, uh, Kid Blink'll go wit Vigor, an . . ." Jack stopped when he heard a tap at the window. He turned to see a recognizable figure standing on the fire escape outside. "Brooklyn!" Jack opened the window to let Spot Conlon in the bunkhouse.
"Heya Jacky Boy. Whoa, what's with da goils?" Spot looked at the girls and back to Jack, confused at how he couldn't get one girl, and here Jack stood with four.
"Dey's gonna be newsies, Spot. Dey's in trainin'. . . hey, you wanna teach one?" "Sua, I'll take one," Spot said looking at each of the girls.
"Great, uh, you take . . .Sassy, and Race you go with Harmony," Jack smiled at Angel. "And you can come with me if ya promise not ta faint again." Angel blushed and managed to say, "Uh, that's fine."
"Kay, dat's settled. All right, let's move it! Carryin' da banner!" Jack yelled. The girls burst into laughter, causing the newsies to stare at them.
"It's nothing," laughed Sassy, in response to the strange looks. The newsies just shook their heads and filed out the door after Jack.
"Sassy!" Vigor got out of bed and walked over to her. She shook her shoulders. "Sassy, get up!"
"Huh, wha . . . ? I don't wanna go to school!"
