Mini's eyes sparkled, "I haven't a clue what your talkin' about." She shrugged, "Even if I was, which I ain't say dat I have, its not my fault dat they can't handle a little ruckus. I mean one little goil, such as myself, 'causing' ruckus?" She sat up and gave Prince an innocent look, "How eveh could I manage dat one?"

Prince looked her up and down once, with a look that simply read "not buyin' it" all over her face. "Gee, I dunno," she said sarcastically, "but I know dat dere are quite a few Brooklyn kids who ain't too happy with some of da Queens kids. Spot Conlon hsself included," she said warningly. "So just for future reference, when ya down dere, be good, or da next thing ya know you'll be takin' a long walk off a short dock."

She grinned ruefully, "Walk? Off of a short dock?" She looked up at the sky then back at her emphasizing the word she spoke, "Walk? Now where ever have I heard dat before?" She brought her finger up to her mouth and tapped it thoughtfully. "I know dat I've heard those words recently," she shook her head and shrugged, "Ah well can't remember." She smiled, she was being a smart alic but she was having fun.

Prince looked down at the girl extremely confused. "Okay..." she said not understanding that at all. "Listen, just be careful when ya go down dere," she said. "If ya go down dere," she added with a roll to her eyes. At the current time Prince didn't see Mini as very intelligent.

"I'm always careful," Mini emphasized the word 'always'. She was clearly lying and being a smart ass, but she was having fun. "And why would I eveh go down ta Brooklyn, when I can stay here in Queens and see the same old boring things over and over again?" She raised an eyebrow.

"Because it's smart," she said. "I mean, ya could go down dere... be my guest, but dun come cryin' ta me when ya get yaself in trouble again. I ain't gonna stop 'em from killin' ya," she said folding her arms. She nearly said that Mini deserved it, but decided against it.

"I'll take your words in ta consideration before I leave Queens. I promise," Mini said crossing her heart like a little kid might. Her eyes hardened and her voice followed, "I don't need no one ta take care of me. I'll fight my own battles and I won't eveh ask ya foh help, if ya don't believe anythin' I say believe dat. I have and always will take care of myself." She wanted Prince to leave but didn't think she would so she stood up and looked down at Prince, "I don't expect ya ta stop dem, I wouldn't even want ya to, because I would handle it when the time came."

"Fine by me," Prince said with a shrug and an almost satisfyed smirk on her face. She crossed her legs at the knee and looked up at her with a curious expression as to ask 'what cha gonna do now?' She wasn't trying to be mean, she wasn't trying to be a mother to Mini, but that's just the way Prince worked. She could be mothering at sometimes, especially to those younger than here, and she could sound mean, but she always meant well, whether or not the kids knew it. She hoped that she was really helping Mini, and not just making her angry.

Mini noticed her look and gave her a 'its none of your business'. She didn't want Prince to always get into her business, she could handle herself and she would. Prince may disagree with her but she would do it her way. "Bye Prince," she said turning and walking away.

"G'bye Mini," Prince said with a slight smirk as she watched Mini turn and walk away. She chuckled a little to herself. Girl's gotta lotta spunk, she'd have to give her that. But Prince woudln't worry about her too much, she seemed tough, and smart... smart enough to know when to shut up anyway. She leaned back on the fountain and lay on the edge. She started to search the sky to see if she could find what Mini had been staring at.

Leone, who had been very.....absent as of late, was in no mood to be dealing with the newsies, and he stepped around every one he saw with disdain in his face. He was still a bit stirred up that he hadn't been able to get ahold of his brother, and all this was going to fall down on his head as soon as he went back home.
Sighing, and mumbling some Italian curse under his breath, he pulled his hat down with one hand, shrugging under his black jacket. The sooner he got out of this street rat infested city the better though.

Prince looked around at the crowed a little. Leone... no way... she slowly sat up looking at him intently. He was alone, he was off gaurd, and Prince had a score to settle for a dear friend of hers. He wasn't here to do it, Prince would do it for him.
Prince glanced around a litte. No one would noticed. She smiled a little to herself as she slowly stood up and walked cautiously over towards Leone. When she reached his side she tapped him on the shoulder. "Pardon me sir," she said keeping her voice low.

Growling with a half huff, he looked down at her, eyes full of fire. "No, I do not want a half crumpled, scurvy ridden paper. Don't you have someone else to bother?" He glared and moved past her, purposely bumping into her hard. "Go home to your parents. Oh excuse me, they're probably dead, right?"

She stood there shocked, and angery more than she had been. She turned directly on her heel. "First of all as a matter of fact they are not dead." She skipped around to the front of him cutting him off from his path. "And second of all-" she pulled back her fist and sent a strong hard punch straight for his face. She'd been wanting to do that for a long time.

Shocked, and very, very surprised, Leone fell back half a step, bringing his hand up to his bleeding nose. Eyes flashing once, twice, he felt his hand ball into a fist, and he reached out, pulling her to him with one hand, the other slamming into her jaw. Hard.
"learn your place!" He snapped, blood dripping down his face. Scarlet red agaisnt the black of his clothes and appearance.
