SHOUTOUTS!
Thanks everybody who replied to my story and sent me a character sheet. I am very happy that you all would like to be in my story. I hope that it works out and I apologize in case your characters aren't like what they are supposed to be like. If you have any problems with them please write me and let me know how I can better them and I will try and get as close as I can. Also I don't know any Italian so if you have anything in Italian that I can put in her for her to spew off when she gets mad just send it to me and I can put it in. I can make it work without having to actually put Italian in but I thought it'd be funner :). Well anyway I hope you all enjoy this and your characters. Thanks again :).

Jester and Brooke Lyn found their way to the distribution office just in time to find a few people still in line waiting to buy their afternoon papers.
"Look Brookey, we're just in time!" Jester smirked and grabbed her arm pulling her.
"In time for what?"
"People girl, people! Geez, get with the program, Brookey." Jester looked at her exasperated.
"O.K., O.K., sorry." Brooke Lyn held up her free hand. "Didn't realize you were such a FREAK!" She teased. Jester just shook her head a smirked.
"How bout that girl over there? She looks lonely." She said pointing towards a couple of girls perusing the paper.
"What about her?"
"HELLO!" Jester called out to the girl, closing the distance between them. She held out her hand and grinned. "Hi, how ya doing? Whatcha up to? What's yer name?"
The girl had to look down at Jester, because she was almost a foot taller then her. Her blue-gray eyes widened with surprise. "Umm…" she blinked and raised her brow. She had seen them a few times, but had never talked to them before.
"Well?" Jester prodded. When the girl still didn't answer Jester shrugged and then started introducing herself. "Well alright. My name is Jester, and this here is my right hand gal, Brooke Lyn. Now this is where you tell us your name." She grinned.
"Um…My names Hair." She gave Jester a shy smile and tucked a piece of her dark brown hair behind her ear. Jester saw that her hair went down to her waist and it had a red hue to it, when the sun hit it. Hair was about to shake Jester's offered hand when they were interrupted by someone running into Jester.
"Oh I'm sorry. I didn't mean to."
After Jester steadied herself she looked up to see another girl standing there shrugging apologetically. She was pretty skinny and a little shorter then Hair.
"It's alright. It happens." Jester grinned. The girl nodded a slight glint of mischief evident in her greenish-blue eyes.
"Hey Hair, how's the headlines? Must be good, ya got like a million papes there."
"No just 600."
"600!" Jester and Brooke Lyn exclaimed at the same time.
"Yeah see, Hair here is our, how do I say, Newsie god. She can peddle more papes then anyone 'round here. Even more then Kelly." The girl smirked. She put an arm around Hair's shoulder as she said this.
"Fire…" Hair put a hand to her neck rubbing nervously. "Don't you have to get yer papes or something?"
"So yer names Fire? I'm Jester this is Brooke Lyn."
"Mmm, right." Fire nodded. "You guys sell?"
"Sure." Jester shrugged.
"Alright I'll see ya later." Fire smirked again as if she knew something they didn't and then ran to get in line.
"She's a little weird." Jester commented as Fire left.
"And you're not." Brooke Lyn shook her head. "Don't mind Jester here, she's a little ya know...woohoo!" She explained and made the crazy sign next to her head and pointed to Jester.
Hair chuckled a little. "Its ok. I'm used to weird people. There's so many of them around here, you'd be surprised."
Brooke Lyn nodded and Jester punched her playfully in the arm. "Hey stop talking like I ain't here."
"It was nice meeting you both, but I have to go sell now and you should go get yer papes."
"Yeah. Well see ya around." Jester waved.
"Bye Hair." Brooke Lyn nodded.
Jester and Brooke Lyn made their way to the line. Fire was at the end of it and was the next one up.
"100 papes." Fire grinned and pulled out a little coin bag that looked oddly familiar to Jester. She raised her brow and thought for a second then grinned. She must have taken it when she 'accidentally' ran into her.
Fire dug opened the coin bag to get the change when all she found was a piece of paper and a few stones to weigh it down. "What the…" She pulled it out the paper and unfolded it. "Gotcha!" She read aloud. "Huh?"
Jester burst out laughing. She had been waiting for someone to try and pick pocket her, for that exact reason. She always carried an extra coin bag on her rope belt. It was empty except for a piece of paper that had 'Gotcha' written in chalk on it. Her real coin bag she had hidden in her shoe. It was uncomfortable, but harder to be stolen. Brooke Lyn looked at her and raised her brow.
"What'd ya do this time?"
Fire looked over at her Jester and raised her brow approvingly. "Touché" she said and tossed the bag back at her. Jester caught it and grinned. Fire pulled out her money from her pocket and took her papers and headed off to her selling spot.
"Just another one of my plans turning out right again, my friend." She explained to Brooke Lyn.
"I'll never figure you out Jes."
"I know Brooke Lyn. That's the beauty of it."
After the girls got their papers they walked down the steps and headed towards the park.
"Any idea what yer doin'?" Brooke Lyn asked.
"No idea. You?"
"Nope. Good thing we only bout a few."
"A few. I got 50. Its what Fire got, so I figured that's what we were suppose to get. Why how many did you get?" Jester raised her brow.
"I got like 15. Why would you get 50? You don't even know how to sell papers!" Brooke Lyn growled and swatted her upside the head with a paper.
"Hey now." She tried to duck, but wasn't fast enough. "So I'm an idiot. You should know this by now. Yer suppose to the brains of this outfit."
"You're not an idiot Jester. Now lets go see who we can pawn these papes off on." She said shaking her head.
"Alright Alright. There's a million people in the park. I'm sure we'll find someone." Jester sighed and kicked a rock. "Hey Brookey look! It's Blink. He's selling over there with some other kid."
"Well let's go see if he'll sell these for us." Brooke Lyn walked over to Blink and his selling partner. Jester followed close behind as she patted her hair in place. "Hey Blink"
Blink turned and grinned. "Hey Brooke Lyn and Jester. What are you gals up to?"
Jester smirked and grinned back at Blink. "Hey ya Blink. How's it rollin'? Who's ya friend?" She grinned and winked at Blinks friend. Blink tried not to laugh.
"Woah, there Sparky."
"Hey that's my word." Jester frowned and crossed her arms. "What you afraid of cute girls."
"Ya mind pulling yer friend back a few yards from me. I don't swing that way." The kid said. Jester raised her brow at his slightly higher pitched tone.
"What ya gay?" Jester smirked.
"No, I'm saying I'm not. Ya blind or something kid." The boy shook his head and took his hat off letting his brown hair fall down to his shoulders. Jester jumped back, her face turning a bright shade of red. Brooke Lyn burst out laughing as did Blink.
"Oh boy, now this is great." Brooke Lyn smirked. "You just flirted with a girl!" She pointed at Jester and laughed some more.
The girl crossed her arms and smirked. She nudged Blink. "Am I good or what?"
Blink couldn't say anything he was still laughing.
"I'm never gonna hear the end of this am I?" Jester covered her face with her hands.
"Nope. This will live on until you die. And even after…" Brooke Lyn was cut off by Jester pouncing on her.
"I will hurt you so bad." Jester was now laughing herself.
"Should we leave you two alone?" The girl asked.
Jester rolled off of Brooke Lyn and stood up brushing some dirt off her cloths. "So are ya gonna tell us yer name or am I just gonna have to call you Sparky."
The girl shook her head and shrugged.
"This is Tac. Tac Walker." Blink introduced them as he helped Brooke Lyn up.
"Nice to meet you." Brooke Lyn smiled and nudged Jester, who stood there sizing Tac up.
"I wouldn't try anything. I'm 5'4" and I got a hell of an upper cut." Tac said as she tucked her hair back up into her hat.
"What?" Jester shrugged innocently.
"See we're actually here to see if you might want to sell some extra papes. Ya know make some extra cash." Brooke Lyn explained before Jester could say anything else.
"Why don't you need the money?" Blink asked.
"We're ok. So what do you think? I got 15 and Freakazoid here has 50."
"What's in it for us?" Tac asked.
"Money! Duh!" Jester shook her head as she shoved Brooke Lyn for her 'freakazoid' comment.
"I could use some. I didn't have enough to buy my usual this mornin'. I lent some money to Race last night. He had a winning tip at the racetracks, but well you know Race." Blink grinned and Brooke Lyn handed him their papers.
"Yeah. Well then you guys can divide them up however you want. Thanks for taking them." She grinned and looked over at Jester who looked to be having a staring contest with Tac. Except they both looked like they were about to kill each other.
"Hey no sweat."
"Well I better take her away before they stain the grass red." Brooke Lyn smirked and tugged at Jester. She didn't budge. Blink put a paper in front of Tac's face, breaking their eye contact.
"Next time." Tac warned before Blink turned her away from them. Jester just stuck her tongue out at her.
"Come on Jes. Lets leave the nice people alone." She said finally able to pull Jester away.
"But she started it." Jester pouted.
"Yeah yeah. That's what you always say."
"Well that was fun. Who's next!" Jester grinned.
"God help me." Brooke Lyn sighed and shook her head as she followed Jester.
