"Wait a second." Knots stopped Jack. They were on their were in the middle of selling papes. Jack gave her a quizzical look.
"I thought yinz were on strike?"
"We are," he answered. Now Knots had the confused face.
"If you're in a strike you're not suppose to sell papes"
"Well we's only do it once a week and for food money. Besides its not Pulitzer or Hearst...Its Denton's"
"Who's Denton?" she asked even though she knew who he was from the movie.
"He's our newspaper writer...gets out ideas in da papes so other newsies can read it.
"Ever took a picture of all of yinz gathered in one place?" Jack shook his head no.
"Listen after we finish up, Davey Boots and I are going to visit Spot to ask him to join the strike. Do you want to come"
"Alright." she replied and headed over to Tibby's were they were going to meet up with the other guys.
Mush and Taps wondered around Central Park. It was beautiful day. The sun shone throughout the dark clouds but it looked like it was going to pour later.
"How long are ya stayin?" Mush asked her.
"Not too long. Why"
"Uh Ise don't know, Ise just feel like I have some sorta connection wit you. Do ya understand?" Mush to explain and blushed. She her head yes.
"I feel the exact same way." They hugged.
"Hey you there, Dutchy!" Skittery called out to him. Him and Jittery just finished their papes and needed a bite to eat."Wasn't that a good headline taday"
"Oh yea it was, it was." Dutchy replied. The four friends walked into Tibbys, sat down at a booth and ordered.
"Mmm a roastbeef sandwich sounds delicious." Marsh stated, reading the menu.
"Nah I want another hot-dog, just like yesterday." this came from Jittery as she smiled at Skittery. Just then Jack and Knots walked into the restaurant. They waved at their friends and sat alone away from them to 'talk'.
Fantasy and Specs just finished their last apartment building.
"Phew that was tiresome." stated Fantasy as she sat on the last step.
"Tell me about it." he replied with a smile. The moment seemed right so they kissed.
Dave, Jack, Boots and Knots headed toward Brooklyn. They were now walking across the famous Brooklyn Bridge.
"So is this Spot Conlons really dangerous." asked Dave.
"I spent a month there one night." replied Boots then him and Jack leaned of to scream over the side.
"Lemme try!" cooed Knots from behind. Of course he let her scream over the edge but held her waist so she wouldn't tumble over. The rest of the walk to Brooklyn, Jack held Knots' hand. Aww how sweet. They reached the dock and a newsie jumped out from the bay.
"Going somewhere Kelly?" he asked them. But Jack just brushed past on his way to Spot. He spotted alright. Perched high overlooking the bay.
"Well if it int Jack-be-nimble-Jack-be-quick." he spoke then jumped off his post.
"See you moved up in the world Spot. river view and everything." Jack retaliated. The boys then spit in their hands and shook on it. Knots cringed at the site of it. Dave explained the situation to the Brooklyn leader with his cane and sling shot at his side. He was the key to the strike and without him their wouldn't be a strike. After a long talk with Spot, the group headed back to Manhattan were they informed the rest of the Newsies the news.
"So, where's Spot an the addurs?" asked a boy.
