After the whole carrying the banner thing Race went to go get the papes while I sat and talked to Jack . " Morning your honor! Listen, do me a favor, spot me 50
papes? I got a hot tip int the fourth, you won't waste your money" Just like Race bribing Weasel into something he won't pay back. "Race you know you won't be able to pay him back so why even go there?" "Of I win at the tracks I will pay him back." Race and I split the papes 20-30. "Cowboy they call im cowboy." I wasn't paying attention cause I thought I saw Oscar and Morris looking at me. Then I saw a smirk appear on Oscars face and I quickly got the hell outa that place and ran to the nearest place that I could calm myself down.

I started crying and trying not to vomit cause I wad afraid that they would take me back to that hell hole. Then this little boy came up to me and behind him was Race, Jack, and David. "Hey miss are you ok you ran outta there pretty quickly." "Look kid I appreciate your concern your as sweat as can be, and cute for a 9 year old but I just needed to calm down. I've been through some tough times and just need some air." "That's ok your pretty, my name's Les" I could tell Race was laughing at my blushing. "Nice to meet yous Les the names Luna, but the newsies call me Little Loony Racetrack." "Why do they call you Loony Racetrack?" "My brudder thought I was crazy when's wes was little so when our parents were killed we went to the lodging house and the name caught on." Les looked at the peoples behind us waving his hand probably telling them to go and he's got this.

"Hey Les how would you like to see New York?" "Oh boy would I." I lead Les to my favorite spot in New York, The Brooklyn Bridge. Race would kill me if he found out I go to Brooklyn. The leader of the Brooklyn Newsies Spot Conlon scares him. "Les this is my favorite place in New York. You can't tell anybodys thats we've been here, got that?" "Yes mama." We looked at the water and watched the sunset it was getting dark so Les and I headed for his house. When we both there Jack, and David were there talking to his parents.

Les opened the door and his mudder was crying over him witch made my heart pang with jealousy. I wanted my family back, Race, mom, dad, and I. "I was worried sick about you where have you been? Oh don't ever do that to me again." "Ma relax Les was just with one of Jacks friends sisters" That's when she noticed me. "Oh dear I'm sorry it's just I get worried when he goes wondering off with people I don't know." "Its fine my name is Little Luna Racetrack Higgins." "Strange name for a pretty girl" "Racetrack Higgins is my brudder but I'm his 'little sista'." "Sarah why don't you get Luna here something to eat." Les' family was nice and his sister looked like she wanted to murder me when she looked at me. I told Les bye and left. I remember what my life used to be like. Why did this happen. I'm only Human.

I can hold my breath
I can bite my tongue
I can stay awake for days
If that's what you want
Be your number one

I can fake a smile
I can force a laugh
I can dance and play the part
If that's what you ask
Give you all I am

I can do it
I can do it
I can do it

But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human

I can turn it on
Be a good machine
I can hold the weight of worlds
If that's what you need
Be your everything

I can do it
I can do it
I'll get through it

But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human

I'm only human
I'm only human
Just a little human

I can take so much
'Til I've had enough

'Cause I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human
By the time I was back  at the lodgning house I had tears streaming down my face. But I quickly wiped them away. My old life was perfect then it fell apart. I'm only human. So why did this happen to me?
