1776, New York City

Adriana Burr, Ms. was walking down the streets of New York. She had graduated from Kings Collage a few months ago. She turned around to someone tapping her shoulder saying "Pardon me are you, Adriana Burr, Ms?". "That depends who's asking", Adriana said still walking. "Oh sure Ms! I'm Alexandra Hamilton I'm at your service Ms. I have been looking for you", Alexandra said. "I'm starting to get nervous", Adriana replied.

 "Don't be nervous. I heard your name at Princeton, I was seeking an accelerated course of study. When I got sort of out of sorts with a buddy of yours. I may have punched her. It's a blur Ms. She handles the financials?", Alexandra said a little fast. Adriana stopped in her tracks and muttered "You punched the bursar?" "Yes! I wanted to do what you did and graduate to join the revolution! She looked at me like I was stupid.", Alexandra took a breath and said while gritting her teeth "I'm not stupid, but how'd you do it? How did you graduate so fast?", Alexandra asked. 

"It was my parents dying wish before they passed," Adriana said bluntly and started walking again. "Your an orphan!", Alexandra exclaimed and ran in front of Adriana, making her stop.  "Of course! I'm an orphan, gosh I wish there was a war so we could prove that we're worth more than anyone bargained for!" "Can I buy you a drink?", Adriana said, grabbing Alexandra's arm into a bar. "That would be nice", Alexandra smiled and sat down at a table.

Adriana came back with two drinks and handed Alexandra one "Now here's some free advice, talk less", Adriana said, almost whispering. "What?", Alexandra said confused. "Smile more, don't let them know what you're against or what you're for", Adriana said. "You can't be serious."

"You wanna get ahead?"

"Yes."

"Fools who run their mouth off wind up dead"

Alexandra made a face as her eyes widened. The next thing Alexandra knew, there were 3 girls who seemed drunk. 

"Hey! What time is it?!", the younger one said, on a table. 

"SHOWTIME!", the two other chanted

"Like I said...", Adriana said and started to get up.

"SHOWTIME SHOWTIME! Yo, I'm Jona Laurens in the place to be! Two pints of Sarah Adams but I'm working on three! Those redcoats don't want it with me 'cause I will pop chick-a pop those guys till I'm free!", The Jona, the youngest,  yelled.

"Oui oui, mon ami, je m'appelle Maria Lafayette! The Lancelot of the revolutionary set! I came from afar just to say bonsoir! Tell the king casse toi", The one that looked oldest said with a thick accent "Who's the best? C'est moi", the accented girl said. 

"Brrrah Brahhhh! I am Helen Mulligan! Up in it, lovin' it! I heard ya father say 'Come again!' Lock up ya sons  and horses, of course! It's hard to have intercourse over four sets of corsets", the middle aged girl said. 

"Wow", Lafayette said. "No more sex pour me another brew gurl!  Let's raise a couple more", Jona said and the others joined in yelling "TO THE REVOLUTION!"

Adriana got up and went to the table, Alexandra followed shyly. 

"Well if it ain't the prodigy of Princeton College", Jona said getting off the table.

"Adriane Burr", Helen nodded.

"Give us a verse, drop some knowledge!", Jona said.

"Good luck with that, you're takin' a stand. You spit, Imma sit. We'll see where we land", Adriana said coldly. 

"Ooooooooooooooooooooo", Helen and Lafayette said. 

"Burr, the revolution's imminent", Jona said crossing her arms "What do you stall for?"

Alexandra came out from behind Adriana "If you stand for nothing, Burr, what'll you fall for?"

Everyone stood quietly for a second to process what Alexandra said. 

"Oooooooooooooooooo", the three girls said and Adriana rolled her eyes and went back to the table she was at with Alexandra. 

"Wait...who are you?", Jona said

"Who are you?", Helen echoed. 

"Who are you?", Lafayette answered with her heavy accent.

"Who is this kid? What she gonna do?", The girls said.
