A New-sie Beginning

It's been 3 years since the Newsies won the strike against Pulitzer. Jack Kelly, fearless Manhattan union leader, continues to carry the banner everyday with the other Newsies. Although he may be dating Pulitzer's daughter, he remains loyal to his friends and his roots. Katherine still writes for the sun but can frequently be seen selling papes along side the boys or spending time with Jack & Crutchie, just the three of them in Jack's "penthouse". Jack is ready to take the next step in his relationship with Katherine but can't find the way to begin to tell her how much he loves her. A New-sie Beginning follows Jack and Katherine's relationship and how it grows. Not only does Jack and Katherine's relationship grow but all of the Manhattan Newsies grow up and mature in one way or another after the strike. It also shows how they all come together to create an even stronger bond than before. Especially now that they have a "sister" to look out for and protect.

* I don't own any of these characters other than Tex. Tex is my own OC.*

Tex's real name is Lexie, but she prefers to go by Tex. She is the daughter of Jack Kelly and Katherine Pulitzer and sees Crutchie as not only a role model but also as a brother. Tex has the writing skills of her mom and the selling and art skills of her dad. She even got a little bit of Crutchie's smile "that spreads like butter." She enjoys selling with the other news boys but her main love is theatre. Tex always steals Jack's blue flannel shirt to wear over her green tank top. When not selling she's either at Medda's theatre or helping her mom write an article for The Sun. She's a fighter and the Delancey Brothers don't frighten her at all.
