It's Quiet Uptown by arizonagirlemi

"Uptown is a part of the Harlem borough." Jack started. "They hark headlines for upper Manhattan. Everyone knows Fred Dalton, the leader of Harlem; decent guy. There's rumors that he's secretly Uptown's leader too; under the name Mason." "Wouldn't the other newsies find out?" Davey asked. "If he was 'Mason', he'd be revealing his own secret." "That's the kicker," Jack chuckled. "No one's ever seen Mason." -Completed- {'Newsies' belongs to Disney, as it is a Disney musical.} {Music and lyrics belong to Jack Feldman and Alan Menken.} {The Uptown and Harlem Newsies are my own characters.} {Some lyrics have changed due to my decision on how the story flows. For example, in 'Once and For All', Brooklyn, Harlem, and Uptown (and some of their newsies) have their own line where the Manhattan newsies usually would.} {Please Do Not Steal My Work.}
