Help Is On The Way
Running into that person, I fell backwards. My hat fell off my head revealing my black curls and I landed on my butt. I was so scared. I didn't want to look up to see the person I had just run into. I then remembered something that Brina once told me.
"If we are ever separated, either curl up into a ball until I come or fight back."
Well I didn't feel like fighting so I curled my legs up underneath me and locked my arms around them. What I didn't know was that the person was still there and he had two friends with him. I peaked up and looked through my hair to see that he was looking back at his friends with a confused look on his face.
"Uh. are youse okay miss?"
I just stayed where I was, praying that he would soon go away. Unfortunately for me he didn't. The guy just continued to stand where he was. He then turned towards his friends. I heard a bit of mumbling but couldn't understand what was being said. Next thing I knew I was up in the air. It was sort of a funny sight because even though I was up in the air, I still had my arms clasped around my legs. I actually heard his friends laughing.
"'Ello miss? Are youse okay? Youse can let yours legs down now. I ain't gonna hurt youse."
I still didn't trust this person for not hurting me. I decided that with the curling up bit not working out, I would use her second piece of advice...FIGHT! I slowly let my legs down and with that the guy let me go once my shoes hit the ground. He really didn't expect what happened next. As soon as he let go, BAM! I hit him in the stomach with my fist.
He doubled over clutching his stomach and I started to run but didn't realize where his two friends were. I just started to run one way and next thing I know two arms grab my arms and I fly up into the air and then land my feet back down.

Brina's POV
"So you were one of the original leaders of the Newsboy strike?"
The boy nodded and talked about how he accidentally let out that they should go on strike.
"Next thing I know, my friend and selling partner Jack is saying that we will go on strike. Sorry, I'm being rude for I haven't introduced myself. My name is David." Ahh. So this was the David I saw in Katelin's picture. Not bad, not bad at all.
Suddenly a feeling comes over me. An all to familiar feeling that I've had for a long time. I look around to see if I can see Katelin around. David just sold another paper and was about to say something when I interrupted him.
"I don't know if you remember, but do you remember the girl who was with me?"
David nodded and asked me why I was asking. He then looked around and noticed that he couldn't see her either.
"This may sound strange, but Katelin, that's the girl, and I have a very close bond with one another. She's like a sister to me ever since we were little. She has a minor problem with talking and hates to be alone with a lot of people."
David stands there listening to what I have to say.
"Well I sort of get this feeling in my bones and I know that there is something wrong with her. I just got the feeling and now I'm worried."
David suggested that we go and find Katelin since he could tell just by the look in my eyes that I was worried. I thanked him and we started to walk.
"What does she look like? When you two first showed up, I seriously thought it was a guy with you since she was wearing trousers."
"Well without the hat on, she's got semi-long black curls and is about 5'4"."
"Okay well lets go find her."
We started to walk and I felt as if we were getting closer. We walked past an alley and I suddenly felt that Katelin was near by. I stopped in my tracks and looked around. I looked down the alley and saw that there was one guy bending down holding his stomach and two others holding a squirming girl by the arms.
"David." He didn't hear me so I tried again a little louder.
"David!" He still didn't hear me.
"DAVID!" He heard me that time.
"LOOK! There's Katelin."
David turns to where I'm pointing and I see that his face goes a bit white.
"C'mon, we've got to help her."
I storm down the alley towards them, rolling up my shirt's sleeves. 'They have messed with the wrong girl.' I think to myself.
