Chapter 14

(Race's POV)

"COME ON BOYS LETS SOAK THEM FOR CRUTCHIE AND KLUTZ!" Jack screamed out. And we started for fight.

There was one more of us den them so we got a small advantage on da boys. Jack took the one dat he was giving da death glare befora. Tackling 'im ta the ground. Screaming at im' while hitting 'im in da face repeatly. I was on da other guy to 'is left, da one you oridanlly shouted at us. Giving 'im a punch in da jaw.

He stumlbed back and then pounced dat me. I dogged da guy at first but the second time I wasn't to lucky. He had me pind ta da wall behind us. 'Dammit, he is at least a few inches taller den me and definitely stronger'. I braced myself for his blows. One came right inta my left eye.

Turnin' away I saw Spec and Mush taking on this huge guy at least 6'5. Spec was on his back trying to make 'im fall, while Mush was punchin 'im in da gut. Then all of a sudden he fell ta da ground. BAM! Another blow to my jaw from my opponent.

(Jack's POV)

'This is for Klutz and Crutch. I'm gonna kill them all for hurtin' my newsies.' No holdin' back. I tackled Klutz's brothera ta the ground, giving a nice shinnera on da right eye. "Ya fake brothera! What kind of family are you? Ta give ya own sistera's life away to some scum bag?" Giving 'im a well deserved smack across the face. "What do you mean? I would never give my sistera life away!" He shouted back.

"OH? If you didn't know, ya sistera talks in 'er sleep. And i've heard 'er talk bout how you promised her freedom away just so ya could run away from yours troubles.!" I shouted back punchin' 'im in da jaw.

"Well you would you too, even if she wad ya sister or you newsies goil if she wad the reason ya parents are dead!" He screamed dat me. I frooze. "LIAR! YA ARE AN ASS AND A LIAR! She trusted ya. And you let her almost die becasue she did." Screaming back at him. I didnt stop. I kept punching 'im over and over again. Until Mush came over and yanked me off Andy.

"Jack! JACK! He is unconcious! Ya can stop pumblin da poor guy." Mush told me. He was holding my shoulders so I wad looking 'im in da eyes. I nodded and then turned to see dat Romeo had knock out anothera guy and was wid Sniper on taking down dis othera big guy. And at da mouth of da ally way was the only and only Spot Coloins makin 'is appearence.

(Race's POV)

'OUCH! I'm startin' ta taste blood now. Looking back to look for someone ta shout out ta for helpl. I saw a sight of relief. Spot wad 'ere and had back up.

"AH, ya got some little friends ta help save ya? Well it ain't gonna work. So i'll show ya how I got da name...Choker.." His eye grew with cold darkness as he slide a knife out of 'is pocket and grabbed me round da neck., His grip was tightening. I tried ta gulp. He raised da knife above his head when a marble smaked da knife out of his hand. Takin' da opportunity I kicked 'im off me and tackled him to the ground.

And I let all my anger come out punchin 'im everywhere. But then a sharp pain started in my shoulder. The guy Mush and Spec was fighting was on his feet again.

He had picked up the forgotten knife and stabbed me in da shoulder. Then he gave me a powerful kick on the side, throwing me off da guy, Choker. 'Even da name gives me chills' I could barley breath. both of dem were kicking me. Then Choker called out ta 'is boys, "COME ON WE'RE DONE 'ERE... FOR NOW!" And turned and headed out. The other guy had grabbed da kid Jack knocked out and ran aftera him.

Things started ta go blury but I could make out Jack running towards me with a unconcious spec overa 'is shoulder.

"Mush! Take Specs back ta da lodging house. Sniper! grab Pockets and take Racetrack ta da hospital." 'OH! not Pockets, of all boys he picks da one boy from brooklyn I don't like' I tried to protest, but I couldn't talk and I'd black out.

(Jack's POV)

Watching Mush and Romeo take off towards da lodgin' house wid Specs, and Sniper and Pockets took Racetrack ta da hospital. I walked over ta Spot. He was busy givin' 'is boys comands bout searching for da boys who bolted aftera fightin' us.

When he was done he turned ta look at me. "Thanks for da help Conlons." He replied, "Nah, Its looks like ya got lucky we showed up in time. They were beatin' yaurs ass" Giving 'im a punch in da arm, and I let out a sigh. We started walking.

"So wheres da new kid ya took in da other day. Blink said somethin' bout how he wad da whole reason ya needed Brooklyn ta da rescuse." He was wearin' a smirk. "What he do? Takw some fruit off a fruit stand? Cat call one of their's goild?" He was happy wid 'is smart remark. "Ya, well fiorst KlutZ is a goil, and-" He inturupted me, "Wait whad? Da kid is a goil?"

Rollin' my eys I continued, "Ya she is, and da reason why we needed ya was cause 'er brothera was gonna give her ta some scum bag ta be 'is prisoner while he ran away wid his freedom still. But Crutch went ta talk to 'er but it was too late and the group of thugs took both of da kids and beat them up pretty bad. I got David and Boots ta take them ta da hospital again."

We continue to walk, and decieded it be bettera if we split up and check on all my boys and Klutz. I told Spot ta go to da hospital ta make sure da everybody got there. I was gonna stop by the lodging house friost den head overa ta da hospital.

'Why did klutz lie ta us in da first place anywayz? I mean I woulda still took 'er in. But I wouldn't of made 'er sleep wid the boys in da bunk room' All these thoughts were running through my head on my way ta da lodgin house.
