((evil writers block..gr.))
Max looked at David from where he sat for a few seconds then got up, "Whaddya say Kelly?" he asked,spitting in his palm and holding it out
Jack did the same, "Blink said youse was gunna help. I had ta come and see it for myself." he said.
Max listened as he said something to Spot, and Racetrack,who quickly said hi and busied himself with his shoes. "Well, Blink was right,for once."

David stood quietly behind Jack, trying not to look like a total dope. He nodded at Max but did not smile. He was afraid that he would be thrown out into the hall with the other newsies...and that was not helping the knotted feeling in his stomach. He sniffed and the annoying sneeze feeling came back. He bit his lip and shifted his weight, willing himself not to sneeze in the awkward silence of the room.

Jack and Max talked for awhile when Max looked up and saw David,
"Yosue okay kid?" he asked,rasing an eyebrow at David's expression.
"David will ya sit down," Jack said, "Max ain't gunna kill ya for sittin' down."

David allowed himself to sneeze and he sighed. "Umm. Sit? Oh...ok," he said quietly taking a seat. Then he looked up at Jack and Max trying to figure out what was going on.

"Now," Max said, "Where were we? Oh yeah. Cowboy, I'll help ya with ya little strike if ya help me."
"With what?" Jack said,not liking how it was heading,and prayed that David would jump in.
"Your a tough guy arencha Jacky Boy?" Max said, "You gotta be ta wander inta da Bronx with Higgin's as back-up, "he jutted a thumb at Race,who twitched, "I've been havin' a little problem wit a certain person. And I need ya help wit him."
Jack knew who it was instantly, "Tony?" he asked, Max nodded, "I dunno Max, Tony's kinda......old. Ya know, he's killed people afore."

David's eyes went wide and he tried to keep his jaw from hitting the floor. He looked from Jack to Max and back again. "Jack," David said trying to keep his voice low and calm. "Who is Tony? And what would we do to stop him from bothering Max? And if he's killed people...I don't think I want to have anything to do with this," David said in what seemed like one breath.

"One minute," Jack said pulling David over to a corner, " I'm not too sure about it eithah, Tony is in the mob, he's always tryin' ta get rid of Max and his little operation heah, in case ya hadn't noticed, dis ain't ya normal everyday Newsies." he rubed his temple with his pointer fingers, " I'm not sure I wan't anything ta do wit it neither."

David looked at Jack and bit his lip. "Oops. I said that I wasn't going to say anything, didn't I?" Jack nodded, his fingers still on his temples. "Well, what are you going to do, Jack," he whispered.

"I don't know lemme think!" Jack said,looking back at Max who was talking to one of his boys.
Racetrack edged around to where Jack and David were, " This is makin' me neovous." he muttered.

David looked at Racetrack. "Weren't you nervous when you first heard that we were coming here, Race?"
