It was beginning to get dark and the newsies were trying to decide where to
go for dinner since some of the newsies had been kicked out of Tibby's.
They still hadn't decided by the time Angel, Harmony, and Sassy had climbed
back through the window. Some of the little ones were beginning to
complain. Jack wrapped his arms around Angel and started whispering in her
ear. Sarah saw that Angel had taken Jack away from her and wasn't about to
put up with it.
"David, I want to go home." Sarah said glaring at Angel.
"Goodbye." Angel replied coldly. Everyone was silent; they were starting to get an idea of what was happening between them.
"Sarah, Les and I are going to stay the night here. Mom already knows." David explained.
"Well, I still want to go home. Jack, will you walk me home?" Sarah asked. "Or would it be too much to ask, little Miss Devil?" Sarah spoke angrily at Angel. Angel felt a burst of anger fill her. She tried to charge at Sarah but Jack's arm over her shoulder held her in place.
"I think it's time you leave." Sassy said motioning towards the door. Sarah started walking towards the door. She stopped in front of Angel and Jack.
"You've messed with the wrong girl. You'll learn that soon enough." She stormed down the stairs past Vigor and Kid Blink. They entered the room with grins still on their faces.
"What'd we miss?" Vigor asked when she saw the look on everyone's face.
Sarah didn't go home though. She marched straight over to the East Side. Surprisingly the newsies there didn't try to stop her from entering their territory. They nodded their hellos and went about their business. Sarah walked into an old deserted building. Inside most of the East Side newsies were congregated around one person, their fearless leader. Sarah cleared her throat and strode towards him. All of the newsies' eyes began to wander over Sarah. "What can I do fer ya dis time, Sarah?" The leader asked.
"We need to talk." She looked at the other newsies and added, "Alone." He snapped his fingers signaling his newsies to leave.
"Talk." He ordered. Sarah took a seat in one of the surrounding chairs.
"Well, Champ . . . are you aware that Jack and I have been a couple for about a month on and off?" Sarah asked. Champ just nodded and Sarah continued. "Well four girls have arrived at the Lodging House to become newsies. I didn't think much of it, but now this girl has stolen Jack from me! She shoves it in my face wherever I go and Jack ignores me. He acts as though I never existed! I think she's cast a spell on him. I need your help to free him from this witch!" Sarah explained putting every ounce of emotion in it she can.
"But what do I get out of this?" Champ asked.
"Well, there are four girls at the Lodging House. I'm sure that we can arrange an introduction with one of them." Sarah said evilly.
"Deal." Champ said and shook Sarah's hand. They talked for an hour finishing all of the details in their plan. The next day the East Side was going to strike, and strike hard.
