Racetrack stayed by the girl's side the whole night, for some reason he
didn't want to leave her alone in fear of something would go wrong. He told
her a few stories about his life and about things that his friends had
done. He even told her a few of his secrets the few that he had always left
untouched and unmoved in the back of his mind. Racetrack began to doze off
and fell asleep with his head in his arms on the edge of the backwards-
turned chair he was sitting on.
"Race... wake up..." Kloppman said with a hint of worry in his voice.
"Wha!?" Racetrack woke up a bit startled; he looked at Kloppman's face and then at the bed in front of him.
The girl was gone.
"Kloppman where'd she go?" Race asked.
"We don't know, all of the sudden I came in here and she was gone." He answered.
Racetrack didn't know what to say, she had been there still asleep when he had fallen asleep, he wondered how she could have even gotten out of the room without someone stopping her. It was almost impossible...
"Hey everyone... wats wid all da commotion?" I asked as I woke up slowly.
"She's gone Jack..." Race said gravely...
"She... died???" I said a bit shocked; sure her cuts and bruises were bad but it was hardly anything to die from.
"No... she left, and no one saw her leave..." Racetrack answered me back.
"Oh..." I said as Racetrack left the room.
After about five minutes everyone seemed to forget about everything that just happened. I got ready for the day and went to see what Kloppman needed me to help him with.
"Jack, I need you take this box over too Brooklyn, there will be a guy there at the lodging house his name is Tom. Give it to him and no one else please." Kloppman told me.
"Aright..." I said taking the box and walking out of the lodging house.
After about a hour walk I reached the Brooklyn bridge, I crossed it carefully trying not to get caught so I wouldn't have to pay the dime passage fee. I reached the Brooklyn Lodging house about a half hour later, as soon as I walked into the door that kid Spot ran into me.
"Heya watch it kid..." I said with a smirk.
"I'se said da other day don't call me kid." He then walked out and didn't say anything else.
"bad mood..." I mumbled as I walked to the desk and knocked on it, I stood there as I waited for the guy named Tom to show up.
"Race... wake up..." Kloppman said with a hint of worry in his voice.
