Amari Santana. At least that's her real name but people call her 'Minx' cause of her perfectly well shaped face, full lips, and big doe eyes as well as siren eyes. Plus well-defined jawline, nicely tan and pinkish cheeks. They call her 'Minx' becaus...
I slowly open my eyes, adjusting to the sun that's in the room. I look around the room to see where I am. As I look to see who was on the bed with me, memories from last night rush through my head. I find Spot shirtless, sleeping right next to me. I look under the cover to see I am naked as well. I then go to get off of bed to change into the clothes I had gotten from Medda before the Rally.

I put my hair up in a messy bun and walk out of the bathroom. I turn to see Spot waking up.
"Did I wake you up, love?" I say as I put on my shoes.
"No... no you didn't, doll. Woke up myself." Spot says as puts his boxers on. He turns to look at me.
"Woah... look at you, doll." Spot says as he looks at my in awe.
"Do you like it? Do you prefer this or the suits?" I say as I give him a twirl.
"I love it. But you can wear whatever you want, I'll still love you" Spot says as he walks to my placing his hands on my hips.
"Aww I love you too, love" I say, I give him a small peck. "Now go get change" I say with a smile.
"I thought you liked me shirtless" Spot says with a pout.
"Only on nights" I say with a smirk.
"Alright, doll" Spot smirks back then walks to the bathroom to get changed. I wait on a chair until he was finished.
"Okay, let's go" Spot says as he walks out of the bathroom. He grabs my hand and makes his way out of the room, downstairs. All his newsies were there, talking and playing games. Spot and me stand on top of his 'throne' tower, observing the buildings of Brooklyn. After a few moments of silence, we hear a commotion. I look down and see both Racetrack and Mush.
"Minx! Spot!" Race yells.
"Heya, Race! Mush! What brings you here?" Spot says.
"It's Jack! He refused to escape the Refuge last night" Mush says as he look at both me and Spot.
"What? Why?" I say confused.
"We don't know. We need you two in Manhattan" Race says. I then look at Spot and he nods. We both walk down and make our way to Manhattan. We head to wear all newsies were. Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens, together. They were crowded at the newspaper's entrance, yelling. I walk through the crowd with Spot behind me to find David.
"David!" I say as I spot him in the front of the crowd. He turns around.
"Minx! Can't believe you're here" David says.
"Yeah.. what happened with Jack?" I yell over the crowd.
"He didn't want to escape!" David says.
"What? Why?" I say.
"Don't know!" David says. Then we see a Bull ride out with his horse exiting the newspaper building (I actually don't know what it's called. Please tell me so I can fix this 🙏🏽)
Everyone push's aside for the cop to leave. As everyone crowds up again, they start fighting each other.
"Hey! Knock it off!" I say as I separate two boys. I then make my way up the front of the crowd, where Cops guard us from entering the newspaper building.
"Hey, hey, hey. Break it up. Break it up." I hear Spot say from behind me as he separates two little boys who were fighting each other.
"It's a mess... we're already fighting each other.." I say as I worry what'll happen if we keep fighting.
"It'll be alright, doll" Spot says as he kisses me on the forehead. I look back and see Bubba and Buttercup fighting each other.
"Hey. Stop. Stop." I say as I bend down to their height, separating them two. "We do not fight each other. I know your siblings but you do not fight. We are a family... Queens newsies are a family.. don't fight.." I say as I look at them both. They both nod their head slowly.
"Sorry, Minx.." Both say at the same time.
"It's alright... now go find Nova." I say with a smile. They both run away through the crowd to look for Nova.
"Hey, hey, Race, Race, come here" Spot says as he pulls Race to the front. "Tell me I'm just seeing thin. Just tell me I'm seeing things." Spot says as he looks directly at the entrance, seeing figure walking out.
"No, you ain't seeing things. That's Jack." Race says. I look forward and see Jack wearing a really nice outfit and holding newspapers. I stand in shock.
"What's he doing?" Racetrack says.
"He's dressing like a scabber." Spot says.
"Jack, look at me, will you? Come on, it's me, Mush." He says as he try's to walk past the cops only to be pushed back. "Look at me. What are you doing, Jack?" My heart breaks for Manhattan newsies.
"This ain't happening. This can't be happening. What are you doing, Jack?" Kid blink says as he does the same as Mush only to get push back again.
"What is this? Where's you get them clothes?" Boots yells at Jack, while getting pushed by the Cops as well.
"Mr. Pulizer picked them out himself. A special gift to a special employee" Weasel says as he hands his hand on Jack shoulder.
"What? He sold us out!" Spot yells.
"Look at him in his little suit. You bum. I'll soak ya!" Race yells.
"Enough! Let me get my hands dirty." Spot says. "Come here you dirty, rotten scabber!" He says as he try's to go through the Bulls.
"Spot!" I say as I grab his arm. Everyone else yells his name, grabbing onto him as well.
"I'm murder ya!" Spot says I take him into the back of the crowd, calming him down.
"Spot, calm down" I say as I sit him at a bench.
"Why aren't you mad, Minx? You should be the one that's mad because you left Queens and walked 4 hours for this" Spot says as he looks at me.
"I am mad." I say as I look into his eyes. I then get up and walk into the crowd again, heading to the front.
"You want to talk to him?" Weasel says as he looks at me. I look back without saying a word. And knowing what I was saying, the Bulls step aside for me to enter. I slowly walk through and head to where Jack and David was. I see Divid step aside for me to talk with Jack.
"What is this Jack?" I say as I look at his clothes.
"Could say the same about you, Minx." He says as he does the same.
"I got these clothes from Medda.. not from Pulizer.." I say with a hint of anger in my tone. "I left Queens to join the strike... you wanted me to join the strike.. now you're switching sides?" I say in disbelief.
"Look I got real money in my pockets for the first time. Actual money." Jack says.
"Everyone trusted you. Queens, Brooklyn... Manhattan.." I say as I look at him. "You're a sick, rotten scabber!" I yells as I try to hit him only to be stopped by Weasel.
"Wanna have the same clothes?" He says. I was pulled back by the Bulls, taking me back to the crowd. I got pushed in, with Spot catching me.
Jack then begans to walk through the crowd, being guarded by Bulls. Everyone starts shouting at Jackas he walks away.
"Seize the day, huh Jack?" Race says.
"Maybe he's fooling them?" Les says. Everyone pats the kid back. Now with everyone walking away without Jack being leader, I know have to find out what I'm gonna do...
