Alley had her head down curled up in the corner just plan 'ol thinking. Silent tears fell from her eyes that she'd never repeat never let anyone see. They'd know she'd been crying but they'd never see if for themselves. she kept drying them. She curled up tighter trying to surpress memories she didn't want to come back up. her hand went to her locket.

SlingShot glanced over in the corner at Alley. She walked over, concerned. "Hey, Alley. You okay?", she asked, putting a hand on the girl's shoulder.

Alley looked up no tears were there but you could tell she'd been crying. "I'll be fine really. I just...." She stopped talking leaning her head back and uncurling. Trying not to think.

SlingShot frowned. She could'nt believe that Alley was okay. "Ya know, if ya wanna talk, ya can... I'll listen..."

Alley gave a week smile. "Its just bein' back here and all the fightin' that's been goin' on it brings back memories ise don't want to remember." She was playing with her locket again fighting away tears that she swore she'd let no one see.

Alley curled up again. "Ise guess it's better to talk then to not talk. But fightin's never really been my thing. Ise don't like to see it and i hates to get involved unless i have ta. Basically because of me childhood or shall i say the lack there of. My parents were murdered when i was very young and ise was blamed for it. and my grandparents whether if their dead or alive never wanted anything to do with me." She paused and uncurled "ise can still remember the first day i came here beggin' for a job and they took me in. I was so glad. Now i've been gone so long i wonderin' if everythin' is still the same. And what's with the fightin' anyways. I means what started it." Stopped talking probably having said way to much and blushed out of embarrasement looking down at the floor.

" Da fightin? Well, I tink it's because a dead Brooklyn was found in Manhatten and Spot blamed Jack. So the bouroughs divided and now we're in dis war..." She trailed off, feeling badly for the girl. She had questions for her, but didn't want to pry.

SlingShot hesitated. "You sure? Cause I won't if you don't want me to..."

Alley gave a weak smile. "I'm sure Slingshot. Ask" She took a deep breath letting it out calming herself a bit.

"well..... how did you get accused of murdering your parents??", SlingShot asked, feeling this was where to begin.

"Cause i was the only one still alive. that's why. and because the guy that had killed them placed the murder weapon in my hand. well actually it was next to me. My neighbours got me out and they knew i didn't do it but the bulls wouldn't believe them and i think it's cause of my grandparents. They had alot of influence." Alley sighed. It was the first time someone had actually asked her that question. Everyone else had left it alone.

SlingShot was silent. When she got up the courage to speak, she could only muster a "oh". She really had no idea what to say now.

Alley just shrugged. "so is there anything else youse want to know Slingshot?" She didn't mind tellin' her really. She played with her locket yet again.
