KittyKat walked threw her favorite part of the library, the fiction section. She loved how the athors wrote there hearts out about things that are imaginary. She love reading and writing, she does write her own songs. She tought herself to read in this very section at the Library back in her home town. She handed in her other book that she finished, now it's time to pick a new book maybe two this time. "Now which one of you'se would like ta come back wit me?" she asked the books, no she wasn't crazy, the books are her imagination and she loved them like they where her friends. So she picked a lot of books off the shevels and set them down on the grown and started to read them.

Avalanche didn't have anything to do... so he came here! It seemed like a good idea at the time. And he loved reading fiction before reading non-fiction. The real world was real enough, why read about it too? Oy.
He found a girl sitting on the floor in the fiction section reading a book. "Odd place to... read a book. I mean, in a library, where there are tables everywhere for just that thing. And what's more ya ain't gotta stay here. Ya can take the books home too!" he said with a slight chuckle.

KittyKat looked up to see a boy talking to her. "It's easyer ta read 'ere 'cause den I'se don't ave ta walk far ta put it back. Plus dis is more better than being with a lot of people reading. I'se rather not take da books back ta the loadin house. It's relaxin ere." she said and put the book that she just finished reading back and picked another one and sat down and started reading that one.

"Lodgin' house huh? Oh, newsie girl!" He smiled. "I used ta be a newsie. Key word: used ta. Well I'm glad you're relaxin'... you a brooklyn goil?" he asked as he entered the aisle she was sitting in and started looking through the books.

He laughed and took a book from the shelf and sat down beside her. "Ahhh... ya got on Spot's bad side? Well... he can be a pain in da neck, but it's just 'cause he's got a reputation to maintain. That's why he acts da way he does, trust me... he wouldn't do it othah wise. Well maybe he would, I dunno, either way, he's a tough guy, and ya cain't really hold that against him," he said. He opened up the book and started to read the inside cover.

"Yea well I'se afta go wit me family name and make everyone fear me you'se don't see me doin dat do ya? Even if Kissin Kate Barlow was my great, great, great, great grandmother. Plus I'se don't ave a ego the size of Pulitzer's Bank account." said KittyKat hating that she just said that Kissin Kate Barlow was her ansestor.

He thought for a moment as he looked at her curiously, as though trying to understand what she said by staring at her. Giving up he finally said, "Uhhh... who?" The name didn't rung many bells around New York City. Sure she'd crashed a few carriages out west, but around New York City, she was a minimal threat, or she would have been. So the name meant nothing to him.
He shook his head. "As for Spot's ego... well it's healthy, but it ain't huge. He's just... well, he's always felt the need ta be respected. I dunno if ya know the whole story b'hind Brooklyn and such... but..." Avalanche shrugged. "It does explain why the guy is the way he is. He don't act that way just for kicks. Well... maybe sometimes he does. But other than that it's mostly just... for the reputation... and stuff."

"'Er name is Kissin Kate Barlow! She was the most feared woman in America! More feared than Spot Conlon! Spot Conlon is just a flee to me. She killed so many men..." KittyKat started trailing off trying to think how many men she did kill. "Anyways, his reputation is nothin, reputation means nothin! What people tink of you'se is nothin! He needs ta remember it what you'se tink of yourself is what's important. Dat's why I ain't following the Cathryn Marie Barlows befoh me. I'se don't feel like gettin all crazy over some guy dat I'se know won't get crazy foh me back and then go off killin people and then kill meself like me mom did, me grandma, me great grandma, and you'se get the idea." said KittyKat as she closed the book.

"Okay, okay, sorry..." he said defensively. He didn't mean to offend the girl. "Just... what people think of Spot Conlon is that it's his way or the high way... and... he upholds that law. He's got friends all over the city too. I... I mean you seem like a nice goil, I'd hate ya ta get on the wrong side of spot, and then on the wrong side a everyone... that's all," he said with a small gentle smile." As for her family history, he disregarded it. He didn't want to go on about stuff that he might not know enough about to comment on.

"Well I'se tink it's a littah to late foh me. I deffinetly got on his bad side. But I'se don care." she said and laughed a little bit. "Funny ow me an Spot are kinda alike." said KittyKat and then it was sighlent for a while "So you'se tink I'se nice?" asked KittyKat thinking how funny that is.

Avalanche shrugged. "Sure... why not? I mean, I dun see no reason ta think ya ain't nice so far anyway," he said with the same small smile, very sincere. "I mean... sounds ta me like ya might get on the bad side of a certain Brooklyn leadah, but..." he shrugged. "It happens."

"I'm Avalanche," he said. "Former Queens Newsie, current dockworker," he said with a broad smile. He accepted her hand shake with a small nod. "I take it you like readin'. Jus' a guess, but... I mean it's a common thought when you find someone sittin' in the middle of the fiction section."
