(Completed) Manhattan newsie Spades Giovanni is one of the most observant (and VERY obnoxious) newsies there are, allowing her to see flaws in the system that the others can't. In this book, she realizes the hypocrisy, dictatorial nature, recklessness, and how centered around Jack, Davey, and Les the newsies union is.

New Kid, New Century • A Newsies Fanfic by mkestis
26 parts Complete
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.
