"Exactly, Spot." Tristan said and opened up the window a crack to light a cigarette.

((due to the influx of new information involving Priest things have gotten far more complicated. Ahem, bring in Birdie and Jack))\
Jack had dragged Birdie all the way to Brooklyn, more importantly to Spot Conlon's apartment. He had no idea that the boys were there having a meeting about the state of Brooklyn at that very moment. For once, Jack had perfect timing.
He pounded on the apartment door furiously and Rae yanked opened the door.
"Jack? What the hell are you doing here?" She asked him, extremely surprised to see him there. She glanced at Birdie. "Who're you?"

Spot stopped mid conversation and glanced towards the door, 'Kelly what the hell are you doing here?' he asked.

"Cause we got a huge problem," Jack said with a loud sigh. "Birdie over here was kidnapped by a Hawk Hoffman, the new Brooklyn leader. Evidently Priest, the gang leader from queens has teamed up with him and is sending guys in to Brooklyn. I got no idea what this Hawk wants or why he's getting muscle, but it can't be good." Jack rattled off.
"Birdie, tell 'em what they looked like."
Tristan crossed his arms and listened intently. Things were getting more dangerous, complicated and serious by the second.

Birdie looked a little nervously from each face in the room, bewildered and more than a little overwhelmed. "Um," she began awkwardly. With a deep breath, she continued. "Mr. Hoffman was tall, with dark hair. He had two boys with him -- he called one Lenny and the other Finn."
She wet her bottom lip. "Priest said he was sending Monday Corelli to Hoffman for protection... and Monday has a reputation in Queens for being dangerous..."

"so as you can see youve got a big problem here," Jack said.
Tristan sighed and glanced at Spot.

Spot groaned loudly, why WHY couldn't he get away from all this? He was exhausted just listening to all of it, 'so...we should all figure out something....is that what you're trying to get at?'

"that's exactly what I'm getting at Spot. Things are getting out of hand too fast. I ain't sure what this guys agenda is but it can't be good," Jack said and then sighed.

'I hate to say this but.....I'm not even involved in that shit anymore,' he said, leaning back in his seat and crossing his arms. 'are we really supposed to swoop in and save the day?'

Tristan glanced at Jack and then back to Spot, "every time I turn around something else is blowing up in my face. You mean to tell me that they can't take care of it on their own?"
"not with this priest guy involved," Jack looked at them both and shook their heads. "I can't believe you'll just let some tyrant trample your borough."

Spot glared at Jack long and hard before speaking, 'it ain't my Burrough anymore.' he reminded him. 'you know if this woulda happened when I was leader? No one woulda swooped in to help me.' he said, bringing his hand up to his temples and rubbing them, glancing over to Rae as if she would have some sort of advice on the matter.

Raven looked at Spot and then glanced between the other boys. "The only thing that's concerning me is the fact that he needed Priest to get involved. Why? Newsies don't usually mix with gang leaders aside from Tristan. That only brings trouble. So what is this guy getting at? Besides, Spot just got himself a stronghold here, they could want to put the pressure on you to see how fast you'd back down."
Tristan glanced at Spot and then back at Rae. Sometimes the head on that woman astounded him. "She's got a point, Wisely's been hearing about you over in the points, so maybe the whisperes are traveling further."

Spot groaned and sat back in his chair, 'Jesus when is my life just going to be simple?'

"You're really asking that question?" Raven said, crossing her arms and raising a brow.
Tristan smirked, he couldn't help himself.

Spot chewed the inside of his mouth til he tasted the metallic tang of blood, 'so what do you all propose we do?'
