Emerald smiled greatfully, nodding her head in thanks as she sat down. She sat her stick beside her and shook Trigger's hand.
"Emerald. I'm headin' for the Bronx."

"Chicago." Emerald shrugged. She grabbed to on to the green heart necklace around her neck. It was a habit she had whenever she got bored. "Just 'cause."

He grinned. "Brooklyn's my home. I'm one of Spot's bodyguards." he was proud of it, he wouldn't deny it. "So, what's in Bronx fer you? Or is there anything."

She shook her head honestly. "Nothin'. Just a place I once lived." She furrowed her eyebrows. "Spot? Is he some mafia godfather?"
Emerald had left New York when she was three years old and had been in Chicago up until now. She didn't really know who was who.

Trigger smirked. "Nah, Spot is da Leader o' Brooklyn. Doesn't really need bodyguards but dey are useful. 'e's one o' da most well known newsies around. You'll learn dat pretty soon." He smiled. "I like Bronx, it's a nice place, I'm sure you'll like it dere."

She nodded slowly. There were few newsies in Chicago due to the high crime rate. Almost every young boy and even the occassional girl were in a gang. Emerald tried to stay clear of it all, which was a pretty hard thing to do, she just left all together, thinkin New York was a little more tamed.
"Maybe I'll run into him one of these days." She stood from the bench and grabbed the stick laying beside her. "I guess I better get goin'. I got a long walk ahead 'a me." She stuck her hand out for him. "But it was nice meetin you, Trigger."

He watched her leave then tossed his feet back up on the bench. Then, tilting his hat over his eyes, relaxed in the afternoon sun.
