Loud Mouth's POV

Here I am, standing in the middle of the street outside, alone, with no clue on how I'm going



to get to my beloved Spot. The whole crowd of Newsies are moving, but moving where? There

must be someone here who knows how to get to Brooklyn! In fact they all do! I didn't buy any

papes, figuring that I didn't need to, because I was going to spend my whole day with Spot..



when I find him that is.

"How come ya didn't buy any papes?

I turned around to see Race there with Mush and Blink standing there.

"I didn't buy papes because... Because I have places ta go and people ta see"

I figured that would do it, without giving away too much detail.

"So where are you gonna ta and who are ya gonna ta see? Asked Race

"I'm gonna go ta Brooklyn, for ya information"

"Brooklyn! What are ya insane!" Race said back while Blink was twirling his finger by his head giving the she's crazy sign to Mush who nodded in agreement.

"Ya, about Spot!"

"Why!" he said his face filled with disgust

"Because I love him!"

"Why?!"

"Because he is my one true love!"

"Why?!"

"Because we're meant for each other!"

"Why?!"

"Why can't I go ta Brooklyn?! I said back, to hopefully put to end the "why?" questions.

"Because..because you're.." Oh don't you dare say it!

"Because it's practically suicide, miss..." said Blink walking up in front of Race, stopping what he was about to say.

"Loud Mouth"

"Miss Loud Mouth, we jus' don't think it's safe for a person like yerself ta go to Brooklyn alone"

"And why can't a person like me go alone ta Brooklyn, is it because I'm a girl, is that it!"

"Yes, I mean no, it jus' dat." Blink didn't know what to say then Mush out of the blue stepped in.

"How 'bout dis, Miss Loud Mouth, we'll escort ya ta Brooklyn. Deal?" How can I refuse sweet old Mush?

I spit on my hand and put it out "Deal" we shook hands and headed out. Just imagine, in just an hour or so, I'll be with my Spot! This is so wonderful! I could barely keep myself from jumping for joy and screaming! No one can stand in my way now! Unless.....
