I'll Always Look Out For You by VaquitaLibra

15 years before the legendary newsies strike of 1899, a child was born. When he is 18 months old, he is brought to the Manhattan Newsies Lodging House. In time, he would be known as Racetrack Higgins. This is his story. This is the story of the newsies strike of 1899...but not as you know it. With twists and turns and new angles in every direction, you'll learn many new things about Racetrack, and his newsie family who watches him grow and develop in his own unique way. All rights to Newsies belong to Disney. All the photos (except one) for the cover come from newsiesfreak.com. None of these characters are mine. Only the story and few original characters alone are mine. Please, no homophobia, transphobia, slurs, profanities, hate, etc in the comment section at any time.

A Newsies Fanfic. Before the Strike, a young girl is kicked out of her home. The only place she's ever known. Wondering the streets a boy with a crutch and a boy with a heavy new York accent pick her up off the streets and give a second chance that she can't give up. Be a Newsie.

Love Is A First (Spot Conlon Fanfiction) by cyndiblack

NOTE: CURRENTLY UNDERGOING REVISION! Twilight Eventide is a 15 year old girl who has a temper, a bad temper. That's where she got her name, Tempest. She is a real good fighter and can take care of herself pretty well. When she was 5, her parents were taken away and murdered, therefore she had to run away and ended up in Manhattan, for everyone thought she was the one that did it. Jack Kelly, who became her unofficial brother, took her in after a few years and brought her up to fight and sell papers. She has no need to dress up as a boy, being herself is much more intimidating. Tempest cannot do anything and thinks there should be more excitement in her boring dull New York life. Spot is the feared newsie leader from Brooklyn. He is known as a big womanizer, but he hasn't found "the one" yet. Right now he is with a girl named Livia, a greedy shirtwaist factory girl. He is a pretty good leader for Brooklyn, his cane that he stole from Pulitzer and his slingshot are his main weapons. Being intimidating has always been his way to get people to do what he wants, but it doesn't work on Tempest, not one bit. As they meet, will these two powerful newsies clash? Or will they be able to tolerate each other, at least until the end of the strike? (I do not own any Newsies Characters except the ones that I made up!)

Bounty Hunter [REWRITTEN VERSION] by ATTiger

"Captain, please reconsider. There's no way I'll be able to work with her. She's reckless, she doesn't follow orders, and she's a danger to the operation. Bounty hunters will sell out anything for the right price. What makes you think we can trust her?" "I'm not asking you to trust her. I'm asking you to trust me." "I do. But I don't need her, Captain, I'm perfectly capable of doing this on my own..." * * * Maize Ember is the most cunning and most feared Bounty Hunter in all of New York City. She's ruthless, but she's the best. She can take down any criminal, she can fight any bad guy, and most importantly, she does not take crap from anyone. Not even Alec West, the top ranked detective in the precinct and her unspoken competitive rival. But when a new case comes to light, and Alec and Maize find themselves going on a high risk mission, together, they can't believe it. With the help of each other they must protect a long ago friend of Alec's, an undercover cop that holds valuable information that could bring down the Crime Syndicate that has been terrorizing the streets for years. Can they put their distasteful feelings towards each other aside for the sake of the mission? Alec doesn't think he can trust anyone. Maize doesn't trust anyone. What will the two do when they realize they stumbled into something much bigger than themselves - and that an old ghost from Maize's past might be back to haunt them both? It all comes down to a game of cat and mouse...

Queen of New York (Jack Kelly x Reader) by hangmansgbaby

Y/n is the Queen of New York, or at least that's what everyone calls her. But who wouldn't. She has everything. Great looks, great singing voice, luck with selling papes, and an amazing boyfriend who also happens to be the leader of the Manhattan Newsies, Jack Kelly. But her life isn't all that perfect. She has flaws like the fact that no one knows her true identity. No one knows her past, no one knows why she was in the refuge all those years ago, and certainly no one knows who her father is and she intends to keep it that way. But when a female reporter by the name of Katherine Plummer, shows up following the story of the newsie strike, y/n's secret is on the verge of being shared to everyone, and to make matters worse, it seems Jack isn't the greatest boyfriend ever when he constantly seems to be pinning over Katherine and ditching y/n. Can y/n keep her secret and her boyfriend or will she have to choose one or the other? If it says 'Liza' anywhere please tell me so I can change it or you can just mentally change it to 'y/n' because it's a reader insert now!!! /\/\/\/\/\Highest Ratings/\/\/\/\/\ *as of 04/12/21 - #8 in #newsiesfanfiction - #6 in #newsiesthemusical - #2 in #andrewkeenanbolger - #22 in #jeremyjordan - #63 in #newsies
