Chapter 55:

"Are you serious? Spot why the hell you letting him come here?" Fire backed away and started for the stairs.

"Fire stay here and face him." Spot grabbed her arm. "Your better then him. You and I can get him out of here together. But I need you little sister. I do."

"Why me? He beat me! He terrifies me! I loose all control of everything! He killed my child! My child is in the ground because of him. Why. Let go of me!" Fare pulled away form Spot.

"Tough girl." Fire turned around and saw her father standing in the doorway. "No baby. Did I do that? Whoops." Fire backed away. "Cleary. Why are you backing away from Daddy." Mr. Conlon grabbed Fire's face. "Come back home."

"Get you hands off of her!" Spot yelled pushing Mr. Conlon back. "Fire get upstairs. I am sorry." Fire turned to get upstairs but Mr. Conlon grabbed her and pulled her back to his group. "She's coming home Patrick. Now I am not gonna force you but if you don't, I'll kill her." Mr. Conlon pulled a gun out and pointed it at Fire. "Is it cold Fire?"

"I'll come, but let her stay." Spot looked at his father.

"No we are gonna be family again. Everything is gonna go back t normal." Mr. Conlon Started for the door.

"No she's married and has a child she cant leave them Father. She can't." Spot grabbed Mr. Conlon's arm.

"Who are they I will shoot them and then she wont." Fire turned and looked at Spot and then at Mush and shook her head no.

"No I'll go. Family." Mr. Conlon walked out the door and dragged Fire with him.

"Well Newsies I guess this is good-bye. Books I want you to be leader. You are the best person for the job." Spot hugged Books. "I love you Books. I love you. Just promise me you wont hook up with any of these scum bags."

"I'll wait for you," Books whispered. "You'll be back."

"Bring Fire back to me and Jimmy. She finally said she loved me Spot. We were gonna have a happy marriage. I love her Spot," Mush said. Spot looked at Mush.

"I can't make any promises but I will work my hardest to bring her back to you even if I have to stay there forever. I will not let him hurt her. Take care of Jimmy." Spot turned to all of his newsies. "Behave yourselves. Listen to Books, she smart, she knows what she is talking about. IF I am not back in four months make sure she gets involved with some great guy, she doesn't deserve to be alone." Spot turned back to Books. "I love you, but I have to go for Fire."

"I know and you will be back." Books kissed Spot. Spot smiled and walked out of the Brooklyn Lodging House, maybe for the last time.
