"Hey, are ya lost?"
Whisper looked up from her feet and saw a boy, probably around Storm's age, thought Whisper. Whisper observed him , he had long brown hair and brown eyes, Whisper had never seen him around, well.... Whisper barly knew anybody in New York except for her brothers and a couple people from Queens, Manhattan, and Brooklyn and they all happened to be girls.
Whisper stared at the boy, wondering if she should trust him or not. To Whisper he looked nice enough so she said, "Maybe." Whispered, Whisper. She smirked at him, waiting for him to answer her.

"Maybe."
Magnet barely heard her at all. She had a very low voice, but when she smirked at him, he laughed a little bit. "I'm Magnet, and I'm a Bronx Newsie. How about ya?" Thinking she was scared, he wrapped his arms around her in a hug and said, "Don't worry, der's nothin' ta worry 'bout."

".... I'm Whisper and I'm also a Bronx newsie." Whisper, whispered again. Whisper was getting tired so she yawned a little bit when he hugged her. Whisper rubbed her eyes and blinked them a couple of times so that she wouldn't fall asleep.

".... I'm Whisper and I'm also a Bronx newsie."
"Well, I guess dat explains why yoah so quiet." When she yawned he smiled thoughtfully, remembering all the time that Thunder, Lightning and Wolf all fell asleep in his arms. But they are much older for that know.
Standing up, he picked her up and wrapped his arms around her. "Come on, I'll take ya back to the Lodging House."

Whisper was really tired now so she kept blinking her eyes so that she could stay awake. Whisper yawned a small "Ok" to him before she was put in his arms.

"Ok"
He smiled at the girl, and just remembered...he always wanted a little sister. He let in a gasp, but low enough so she didn't hear him, then made his way to the Lh.

*New Day*
Magenta had been waiting for her brother, Melody, to come find her, but she just got sick of it and started to walk around Myrtle Avenue. Sitting under a tree, she looked around the selling corner. Seeing a few couples, children, and other newsies that couldn't sell papers because of the jack-up, she smiled.
Digging her hand in her pocket, she pulled out her watch and sighed. It was almost lunch time and she hardly had any money. The only thing she could by with..a few cents was probably just coffee, and that didn't help a lot at all.

Today had been a off day, they didnt need him at the docks and really it seemed like quite a slow day. The other places he usually offered his services to as well, claimed they had no use for him today so he was stuck selling, something he rarely ever did now adays. He didnt make the money he could make like he did with the other odd jobs he did, but sometimes there were those days, like today, that he had to resort to selling.
Again the day hit him, slow and never ending, he felt as if hed been living the past hour for the past week, it was so bad. With a small frustrated growl he leaned up against a nearby tree, his arms crossing over his chest. It wouldnt be long before the afternoon edition would have to be sold now. He really didnt miss being a newsie... well when he was much younger the fights were a bit of a thrill but other then that... he was rather glad it wasnt his only option now.

Hearing a small growl from behind her, Magenta turned around slowly with an eyebrow raised. Seeing a boy who looked about two years older than her with dark hair was leaning against a tree, and he looked terribly frustrated.
Studying him more, Magenta didn't know why he was mad, but looked like he could use some comforting. "So, ya havin' a bad day?" As she asked this, she stood next to him, leaning against the tree as well.

His thoughts were interrupted by a voice and he glanced over with cool blue eyes to see the owner of the voice. His brows rose. "No.."He said. It really was none of her business and what did it matter much anyway. To be honest he hadnt seen her there before and he wondered if she had been there this whole time or if she had just arrived. Mentally shrugging he turned his attention to the passer by'ers.
He wasnt the most social person on the planet, known for usually only giving short answers that hardly ever left it open for conversation and if it did he didnt usually offer it. The only person he ever talked to for an extended period of time was Flanna and maybe a few other choice people but he hadnt seen them in what felt like ages.

She raised an eyebrow at his stubborness. She knew what it was like not wanting to explain anything that happened to her, but when she found the right person, she let it out. They listnened to her, and didn't interrupt. Magenta had always been that kind of person. If her friends or someone from her burough needed help or advice, she would sit down with them, and listen to their story or questions before answering them.
Even though he was ignoring her, she wouldn't back down, that's typical Magenta for you, she never backed down from anything. Holding out her hand, she introduced herself. "I'm Magenta, and I'm also a Queens newsie."

When the girl continued to talk to him he sighed some and turned to look at her. "Hmm..'He grunted a bit, but didnt shake her hand. On top of not being very social, he wasnt a touchy feely guy not even for meet and greet handshakes. There was only one person he let touch him and that was it. "frost...'He returned. He didnt confirm whether or not he was a newsie as well. This would be the last time he saw her, he was sure and if not.. its not as if they were on a 'conversing as if we're old friends' basis.

Magenta shook her head in disaproval. She was starting to get very annoyed with Frost. "Yoah not very talkative are ya?" Sending him a glare, she slid down the tree and sat on the grass, but as she sat down, she sighed a long, loud sigh. Magenta wasn't trying to make him pity her, she was just very bored and hadn't anything to do. Thinking she could make a few new friends, she had obviously been wrong.

HE gave her a small shrug. "Sorry to disappoint..'He said a bit dryly... "It was you who started talking to me...'he pointed out as she sighed and slid down the tree. Lifting his hand up he started to pick a bit at the bark on the tree. The day was getting warmer as the sun seemed to have no coverage by the clouds and now beat ontop of them from above. It was a good think they were under the tree otherwise he was sure itd be worse.

Shaking her head again, she gave him a small smile. "Ya, I know that, so now your going to talk? Or am I just zoning in and out?" Magenta gave a small chuckle, wondering how someone could go from two words to two sentences.
