Fancy dug her fingers into his hand warningly. "You sayin' you think i'd betray Brooklyn?" this was to much. She stood up. She was pretty much the same height as SlingShot, so it wasn't that intimidating but when Fanc got mad... she got really mad....

Arm snapping out, Red stopped her as he raised his head a little, "You insult her, you insult me. You think she will betray Brooklyn..You're saying you think i'll betray Brooklyn." He raised an eyebrow, "Is dat what you think?"
One had to be really careful here, accusing the previous leader of betrayal would not be a good thing.

SlingShot turned red with anger. "YOU are a Brooklyn newsie." She whirled on Fancy. "Are you or are you not a BRONX newsie??"

"What if someone betrays us?"
WHAT?! Was Slingshot saying she thought Gamble would BETRAY Brooklyn?! "You've got a lot of 'Brooklyn Pride' For someone not even born in the city. What the HELL makes you think I would betray Brooklyn?! You have no right! Unlike you, I grew up here. Live here all me life. Why would I betray my city?" She screamed at her, turned on her heel, and stormed out of the building.

Fancy moved towards SlingShot again. "Yes.... i am.... But i was also once the leader of Queens.." she moved so that she was in a position where if SlingShot decided she wanted a fight... she'd be ready. "I have loyalties to Brooklyn AND Queens and if you've got a problem with me then i'd rahter you say it to my face..."

Red stepped up next to her, and he didn't even have to say it. If a fight broke out, he was fighting with his fiancee. He shot a look at Spot, as if to say ' see what you started?' and turned his attention to SlingShot.

She saw them both advancing towards her and was ready. "Alright. I have a problem with you fighting on two sides of a war. You SHOULD be on the side of YOUR borough, no questions asked." She turned on Red. "And YOU!" She was beginning to shout now. "YOU USED TO BE THE LEADER OF BROOKLYN, AND YOU ARE TAKING HER SIDE?? SOME KIND OF EXAMPLE YOU'RE SETTING!!" She stopped yelling and took a deep breath, calming herself and making sure she would be ready if a fight were to break out...

Red's eyes flashed fire, and his hand was a blur. He had slapped her across the face, and had his hand back at his side in less than five seconds. "Dont you EVER say that again." He said lowly, that tone the older ones knew as his 'leader' voice. "I am taking the side of my fiancee, and of Brooklyn. If you have such a problem with me, you come and tell me now."

She rubbed her face in the place where his hand had made contact, holding back the tears that threatened behind her eyes. Tears that were there not because of pain, but because Brooklyn was fighting among themselves. Brooklyn had been her home since her parents had died. The one place she had truly loved, and she was making herself enemies. The threatening tears overflowed and she collapsed on the floor in sobs. She had not cried since her parents died, and not it all poured out.
After a full minute, she looked up, embarrased and waiting for the reaction. She made eye contact with Red, wondering what he would do.

He looked down at her in silence for a moment, and then held his hand out, palm up. "Brooklyn shouldn't be fighting." He muttered. "We're better than dis."

She sniffled and a few tears fell as she took his hand and stood up. "I'm ... so sorry..."
