"You shoulda seen it when this whole thing started... now that was a mess..." she said as she remembered what had been said at the tables. It felt like years ago.
"Guess times has changed eh? Backstabbin left and right," Spot had said.
"If you think you know so much, why would I do something like that, huh?" Jack had said.
"How do we know dat you ain't called ya own newsies out ta Brooklyn and had da kid killed? Think about it Ace... the thought of dat is crazy... you're crazy," she remembered her own words.
"I dont kill people, unlike you two." Ace had snarled, "I prefer letting them live, and making their life a living hell."
Prince raised a hand to where Ace had hit her that day. She realized she had deserved it... all of them had been such idiots, herself included. She wanted nothing more at that second than to go and apologize. Get it all sorted out, but that was the girl in her talking.

"I cant say i understand." He said softly. "What goes on between you leaders is a well kept secret, but...." His eye was guarded, his face a mask. "You wont ever know until you try, right? Maybe he feels the same way you do."

Prince snapped herself out of it. "Wha? Oh... well... I dunno... it all depends on if I can get to the Bronx without someone killin' me... it ain't safe dere for me ya know," she said. She'd said some mean things to Ace that day. The only bronx kid she's seen has been Fancy. Her guess was that Ace had told the kids what had happened, and what she'd said. With her luck Bonx hated her just then.

He grinned and jumped to his feet. "What's all this talk? You're the Queens leader, Prince. You're gonna walk right through da Bronx, and you're gonna tell anyone who bothers you to shove off." He grabbed her hand pulled her gently to her feet. "And we're gonna fix this! Cause i miss going to Brooklyn and teasin da midget."

Prince about screamed as she was thrusted to her feet. She looked at Blink in disbelif. For one... the comment about Spot was just too funny to her. And two, he was right. She'd almost forgotten. She was in charge of Queens! What was she doin' worryin' about Bronx?! She could handle them. "Ya know what... Blink... ya right... yeah!" she said feircly. "Ya know what?! Ya right! I am gonna go to the Bronx, and I'm talkin' to Ace, and there ain't nothin' they can do about it!"

He gave her a dazzling smile, "Go get em, Leadah." He winked, "Just dont hurt anyone, okay?" He was glad to see her in a better mood, at least for a moment. He was hoping he was right too. It would be his head if this all ended badly.

"Yeah, I'll try not tah," she said with a smile. She left a message at the front that if Jack was looking for her she had some business to attend to, and they'd have to meet some other time. She left the dinner, and decided she'd make her way to the Bronx. The sooner the better after all.

((New Day))
This was the second time in two days that Prince was waiting for Jack. The first time she got information, the second she was waiting for Ace too. She'd just relax and hope no more mind blowing news came rolling in the front door.

Jack walked into Tibby's, exhaustion etched on his features. "Heya Prince," he greeted in a dull voice, taking a seat across from her.

"Hello Jack," she said with a smile. "Ya look... tired. I got some news dat'll perk ya right up," she said with a smile. "Ace is on his way, for one, but dat ain't da news. We jus needed ta talk to ya."

"Yea, I heard about The Bronx," he said, referring to Ace's coming. "What news? Ace already know about this?" he asked with a hint of annoyance in his tone.

"Yeah, but only b'cause Blink came and told me. He told me 'bout da fight at distribution, an' he told me 'bout what Morris said ta him. He said, 'I'se could kill youse too,'" she said with a sly smile. She'd said those words so much, but she loved it! It was their way out! Just those few words. They made her happy.

Jack raised an eyebrow. "too huh?" He leaned back in his chair, resting his hands on the table. "Well that shore changes things don't it?" His mood was lifted and a faint hint of a smile tugged at his lips.

The door opened and Ace came in, hands in his pockets. He smiled at them, "Hello Prince, Jack." He slid into a chair, "Sorry im a little late, i took a detour."
