SlingShot hesitated again but.. It was Jack Kelly, and he looked mad enough as it was. She didn't want to get on his bad side. "He...he was in Brooklyn.. ya know, durin' da war, lookin foah a book in da bookstore. An'.... an' I found 'im but let 'im go... Told 'im ta tell ya 'bout it... he said he would", she explained nervously. She mentally slapped herself. She was getting more and more like a girl every day.

Jack's face suddenly looked like some dark cloud passed over it.
"...yeah. He's been keepin' a lot from me lately." Oh. Davey would find out that a mouth cant talk if its dead. Maybe he should let it slide because it was in the past--but it clearly showed that David was getting too big for his britches.
"...thanks for letting him go, Slingshot." He shook himself a bit and patted her on the shoulder, smiling. Couldn't kill the messanger. She was a good kid. He would save his wrath for David.

SlingShot saw Jack's face and took a nervous step back. She nodded as he patted her shoulder, and suddenly felt badly. "I - I'm sorry. I thought he'da told ya. He said he would"

Jack shook his head, smiling at her softly. "Slingshot, you can't be sorry about something that isn't your fault. Its his fault for not telling me--not yours." He shrugged. "So don't feel bad."

"Oh." She wasn't sure what to say. "Um.. Jack? Is Dave in trouble?" As it came out of her mouth she realized how stupid it sounded. "Um, what I meant was...", she trailed off, not entirely sure what she was trying to say.

Jack shook his head. "Nah.." He closed the door behind him. "..don't you worry, okay? You're a good kid. Feel free to come around whenever." He smiled and started down the stairs. "...oh and Davey's not in trouble--he's just dead." His voice lowered, as he went to find his best friend.

SlingShot froze at that. What had she done? She started down the steps, but knew it would be useless to try and stop Jack. She silently prayed that Dave was far, far away.

((New Day))
Les had been selling papes by himself, for a while now. He was wondering when David was coming back. Me missed his big brother, and he missed selling with him. He knew there was one place he could go to find out where he brother was....Jack...
Les ran out the alley ways cutting in and out through people on the streets. He finally ended up and Jacks out. He took a breather for a few minutes the knocks on the door three times

Jack opened the door and sighed softly when he saw Les. How was he going to tell the kid his brother had disappeared?
"Hey Les kid.." He ruffled the kids hair. "Come on in..."

Les caught his breathe and walked into Jack house, taking off his hat, like his father and brother had told hi to do when he walked into a building.
"Hiya Jack."

Jack smiled softly. "What's up, Les? Why do you need to talk to little me? Or just wanted to hang out with the great leader, Cowboy Jack?" He laughed softly.

Les sighed. "jack....Whens David comin' home?" There was no easy way to put the question. He wanted to know when his brother was coming home....and he wanted to know now.

Jack shrugged. "I dunno, Les. Whenever he wants to."

David hurried down the street and pushed open Jack's door immediatly. "Guess who?" He said proudly. He had missed everyone and was glad to be back. "Les!" He grinned.
