Tempest

I walked back to the square and everyone was waiting including David who was greatly annoyed pacing back in forth in front of the statue.

"So what's he going to do?" Spot asked.
"I don't know… He won't talk to me" I shrugged.

"Why did you run into the house? Did you have something to do with him send me off?" David asked me angrily and Blink pushed him back.

"Don't" Blink warned him standing between us and I sighed grabbing Blink's arm and he looked at me.

"Pulitzer was making a deal with Jack… if he worked for him again he wouldn't have all of you; David and Les included; sent to jail or the refuge…" I told them and they started to get in an up rise, "He didn't give him an answer but… the reason I ran into the house… is because I live there" I sighed looking at the ground, "I have been lying to all of you for a long time now… my name is Danielle Pulitzer… I'm Joe Pulitzer's daughter" I sighed looking at the astonished face, Blink's face a second ago was tan but even in the dark his face went white in the moonlight.

Spot shook his head grabbing my neck and making me look right into his narrow eyes that held anger and annoyance at the light of all this coming to the surface. I knew he would never hurt me but something in his eyes told me never to push that,

"Are you wid us or wid them?" he asked seriously.

"I have and never will be with them… I'm with you guys… my family" I looked at all of them and Spot nodded releasing my neck and Blink looked at me and put his arm around my shoulders hugging me to his side and I sighed leaning into his arm.

"Alright!" David stated, "Tomorrow bright and early before the circulation bell everyone meets here. Tell everyone." David told them and they all cheered running off to tell the others and I sighed looking at David who took his hat off and rubbed his head.

"I'm sorry tonight didn't go as you had planned it but you mean a lot to Jack, David… he doesn't want to see you in jail" I told him as walked towards his house.
"We are fighting for something and that has dangers and when you believe in that something so much you are will to take the dangers" he sighed looking at me as we walked.

"Yeah… I agree" I told him quietly looking at Medda's in front of us and I sighed shaking my head, "I guess I'll see you in the morning?" I looked at him.

"I'll come by and pick you up" he suggested.

"Thanks David" I nodded going inside as he continued to his house.

I walked upstairs to the bedroom and climbed out onto the fire escape and stared at the city so quiet and peaceful it was hard to imagine a war going on down on the streets. I sighed thinking about the conversation I had with Jack and I frowned wrapping my arms around my knees crying softly.

He had never yelled at me like that before and never purposely said there was nothing for him to stay here for. I sighed whipping my face, maybe he was right this was a mistake getting with him. I didn't like thinking like that, Jack was the best thing that ever happened to me and I wouldn't change that.

"Daredevil" Blink's voice reached me from a few floors below and I looked down the fire escape and he was climbing the stairs.

He came to my side stopping, "Danielle" he whispered and I looked up at him and he grabbed my face wiping my tears off and I moved over and he walked up the stairs behind me and put his legs around me and he put his arms around my neck as I turned into his body, "I'm sorry" he whispered and I put my arms around his waist laying my head on his chest, "You still got me" he whispered and I held him tighter.

"One up in this entire situation…" I sighed as he ran his fingers through my hair, "How can you even talk to me?" I whispered, "Jack hates me because of Pulitzer… broke up with me too" I sighed laying my head on his leg.
"Well den that's his lost" Blink snapped, "I had a girl like yous never let her go" he whispered and I sat up looking at him, "Sorry… you knows its da truth" he smirked shrugging and I laughed slightly kissing his cheek.

"Thanks Blink" I smiled, "You always make me smile" I sighed and he grabbed my face and I looked up at him as he kissed me softly and I pulled away, "I love Jack, Blink" I whispered shaking my head.

"I know" he smirked, "Just wants ta do it while you're a free woman and I ain't hurt Cowboy none" he shrugged and I laughed slightly before he did it again and I touched the back of his neck kissing him back, "Still as perfect as I remember" he sighed leaning his head against mine and I smirked laying my head back down on his leg and he ran his hands through my hair slowly and it was slowly putting me to sleep.

I felt Blink move and I woke up before the sun and I looked Blink who had fallen asleep on the fire escape his arm under his head and I laughed getting up and going inside to get changed and I dressed in a blue skirt and white blouse with my brown belt and pulling my hair back with a blue ribbon as David walked in and I smiled slightly.

"Did you sleep at all?" he asked and I looked at Blink who was still asleep on the fire escape, "Well then" he shook his head walking over to the window and pushing his hand from under his head and Blink's head hit the railing.
"David" I sighed shaking my head as Blink crawled in the window and touched my back as he stumbled over my bed trying not to step on it, "Lets go" I sighed taking his hand walking out of Medda's.

"Did you sleep?" I asked David.
"Not really" he sighed.

"Me edder stairs ain't so comfy" Blink cringed.
"No one told yas to stay there" I shrugged at him.
"Well I didn't wants ta wake yas" he mumbled so only I could hear him and I smirked at him.

"I'm ready for this to be over" David sighed leaning on the statue's side as we waited as all the Newsies were slowly showing up.

"Well we can't give in people are looking to you" I told him.

"No pressure" he sighed.

"Exactly" I sighed looking around as police started to show up and I looked as Newsies started to surround the circulation building and Blink grabbed my hand and David was behind me as we walked through the crowd as they chanted,

"Stop the World! No more papes!" splitting themselves into two groups as a carriage came out and we moved and the line formed before of cops.

I sighed as Spot broke up a few kids,

"Hey! Race" Spot grabbed him, "Tell me I'm seein things just tell me I'm seein things" Spot begged and I looked at the scabs and saw Jack stepping out in new suit with Weasel pulling him out.

"No you ain't seeing things, that's Jack what's he doing?" Race asked.
"But he's dressed like a scabber" Skittery pointed out.

"Jack? Look at me will you come, it's me Mush, Look at me what are you doing Jack?" Mush was pushed back by the police.

"This ain't happen! This can't be happen what are you doin Jack?" Blink was pushed back as well and Mush grabbed him to calm him down.

"What are you doing… why are you dressed like that?" Boots was pushed back.
"Mr. Pulitzer picked them out himself" Weasel smirked, "Special gift to a special new employee" Weasel brushed Jack's arm off again.

"He sold us out!" Spot growled.
"Look at him in his new suit" Race growled, "Ya bum I'll soak ya!" Race spat.

"Hey let me get my hands dirty" Spot jumped out, "Come here you dirty rotten scabber!" Spot growled and I grabbed his shoulder and he looked at me like he was going to kill me,

"Get him outta here" I told Blink and Race who had to have Skittery and Much grab his legs and drag him out of the line.

I looked at Jack who was still avoiding all eye contact with us and I knew he was feeling guilty even though he would never let it show on his face,

"Oh you want to talk to him" Weasel motioned to us, "Sure come on, come on" He told David and me moved so we could get through, "Go ahead" he told us.

We walked up to Jack and we walked away from Weasel as David grabbed Jack's clothes,

"So this is why you didn't escape last night?" David snapped.
"Yeah" Jack lied.
"You're a liar… you lied about everything, you lied about your father being out west, cause he's not out west… you didn't even tell me your real name!" David exclaimed.

"So whatcha wanna do about it Dave?" Jack shrugged.
"I don't understand you right now Jack" I told him and he looked at me briefly.

"So let me spell it out for the both of yas… see I ain't got nobody tuckin me in at night, or drawin me a bath like you'se" he looked at me, "It's just me I gots to look out for myself alright?" Jack told us.
"You had the Newsies" I told him.
"What'd a newsie ever given me but a dime a day and few black eyes. You know I can't afford to be a kid no more, Dave for the first time in my life I gots money in my pockets real money. Money you understand… I got more on the way and then I'm gone away alright" Jack shrugged jingling his pockets.
"Well that's good! That's good cause we don't need you" David motioned to everyone, "We don't need you! Cause all those words you said those were mine" David stated.
"Yeah but you never had the guts to put them across yourself did ya?" Jack told him.

"I do now" David walked away and Jack looked at me.
"What do you want to say?" Jack asked me.
"Money doesn't buy happiness Jack… how does it feel being alone?" I asked him walking away back to the newsies and past David.

"David?" I looked at him as he stared at Jack and lunged at him but Mr. Weasel grabbed him.

"Maybe you'd like a new suit of your own?" Mr. Weasel offered.

"Never!" David yelled and the police grabbed my arm throwing me back behind them and Blink grabbed me before I hit the ground pulling me up and I nodded a thank you as all the police gathered around Jack and Weasel and they left as the Newsies tried clawing there way through the line as I walked towards the back as the fighting stopped and yells continued,

"I trusted you!" Boots yelled.

"Seize the day huh Jack?" Race asked.

"He's foolin em… so he can spy on them or something" Les stated.

"Les" I sighed patting his back.
"Yeah he's spyin on them" Race sighed shaking his head.

"So much for only trusting the Newsies" Spot scoffed, "We can't even trust the best of them all" he shook his head.
"Spot… this isn't over" I told him as we walked down the street quietly.

"I know it ain't" he nodded, "You alright?" he asked me.
"Yeah…" I sighed pulling my hair ribbon out because my hair was falling out of it any way, "just don't like money… it makes everything in the world harder" I sighed.
"Ain't that the truth" he scoffed and I nodded, "I'll sees you lata" he stated and I hugged him before he ran off to join the Brooklyn Newsies.

"You aren't alright?" Blink appeared beside me and I looked up at him before down at the ribbon that I was running through my fingers.
"I know that, he knows that… I think everybody knows that" I scoffed.

"I'm going to go check on David I'll see you later" I told him, "I'll talk to you later maybe…" I sighed walking away from him without another word.
