Okay. I need someone. anyone. to think of Mush or Kid's views on the
Strike. For now. I'm working on the Delancy's and maybe possibly Sarah. Or
maybe Medda. Hmm. Alright. I'll stop now.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The Strike. What a joke. Jack actually did an absolutely phenomenal job, considering he backed down like a coward and gave into Pulitzer. If it hadn't been for me he would have never come back. But he let everyone believe he came back on his own free will. But he knows I forced him. He knows I'd tell them his secret. Jack is a fake, through and through. Not one inch of what he says is valid. He is not to be trusted. But I am not telling you about Jack am I? I'm telling you about me. And why I striked. Well I'll tell you. I wanted to strike in order to get closer to Kid Blink. Why, you may ask, would I want to get closer to Kid Blink? Because I am a homosexual? Nah. Because I think he's a swell guy? NO! Because I wanted to murder him. And I would have damn it if it hadn't been for Mush. The stage was set, the players were in place. I had Kid cornered in an abandoned alley. I know, how cliché. I had a knife to his throat. I was ready to slit his throat. And then that bastard Mush stopped me. But not before I made them sworn to secrecy. Otherwise I'd tell everyone Jack's secret. You may be asking, why would they care if Jack's secret got let out? Because they play a major role in it. And they would all be in jeopardy if the cat was let out of the bag. And so they kept their mouths shut. And how, you may ask would this information circulate? Word of mouth I tell you. Every Newsie from here to Brooklyn would know. And, you may ask, what of this plan to kill Kid? Will you go through with it? And why do you want to? And I will answer you, yes I will go through with it. Kid, Mush, Jack and Racetrack will all be killed. One day apart. All because of Jack Kelley's secret. You see when Jack, Race, Kid and Mush were all 7 years old, I was 6. They picked on me mercilessly. But they don't remember me at all. One night, they beat me up real bad. So what's their secret? I saw them all one night doing things boys just don't do with other boys. Whatever their reason, I never knew. Before I could ask a question they beat me up. Now they'll pay. By my knife or by word of mouth.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kinda ended abruptly. Oh well. I recommend reading my inspiration for this story. its called The Journal of Finn Reardon.. A Newsie.. its one of the Dear America books. You know I had always thought they should do a Newsie one.. And they finally did. Race Kid and Mush are in it. A good read! Anyways.. send the ideas folks!
