Emily Pulitzer, the youngest daughter of Joseph Pulitzer and little sister of Katherine Pulitzer, has lived a simple life of wealth and leisure - along with a few strict rules - for the longest time. Emily was always quite the adventurer. But what sort of adventure could she go on if her whole life was already planned out for her? Emily tries to find ways to entertain herself, but somehow the feeling of boredom always finds its way back to her. That is until she bumps into a group of Newsboys and starts to have feelings for a certain smart, sweet, chocolate colored-eyed, brown-haired Newsie. Considering how wrong it was to have her heart set on this boy (according to her dad), will Emily fight for love or just let it go? And what happens when trouble begins to brew in the city?

New Kid, New Century β’ A Newsies Fanfic
It's been over a year since the strike has settled and the newsies haven't had any problems with Pulitzer since. But that's not to say that they didn't all have problems outside of work. Jack and Katherine were unhappy together. They didn't feel the love towards each other that they used to feel. Yet they were too scared to say something to one another. Crutchie wanted for his long-time crush to love him back, although he knew that would never happen. Still, one could dream. Davey and Les's father had been severely injured by an incident at work. He wasn't so lucky this time around and passed away due to blood loss. This drove their mother into a state of insanity, forcing Davey and Les to pack up their things and leave. They now live on the streets with their fellow newsies, struggling to support themselves just like every other newsie. Their lives were still pretty crappy and hopeless, but hey, they were still alive and that was what mattered. Then, a new kid shows up at the gates of The World and sends their lives into chaos once more.Complete
