(A.N.: Dear all my reader, I've been way too out of touch. Things have been crazy and it stinks that I can't post that much. But I should tell you that I always want to write. I open my notes and try writing every night.
Evan: Why would you write that?!
Me: I'm just trying to tell them the truth.
Evan: This need to be perfect, this Author's Note has to prove that you were actually writing. Just- I'll do it.
A.N.: I gotta tell ya that this whole month has been hard.
Me: Hard?
A.N.: has been bad.
Me: Bad?
A.N.: has been rough.
Me: Perfect!
Ima stop right there. 😂 Yes I know I had this on Love Will Do What It Does, but it worked so nice, I did it twice. I honestly have no idea where this chapter came from, but y'all get to see the boys get into mischief. This is by far the longest chapter I've EVER written. Enjoy!)

Medda moved to the door and exited the room with Katherine close behind.

Upon entering, everyone froze where they were. Medda let a gasp.

"What in the name of sanity happened here?!" She cried exasperated.

A roughed up Romeo was pinned on the floor underneath Henry who had his arm raised and his hand fisted, ready to sock him.

Race and Jojo were standing in a running position, a very angry looking Albert was behind them.

Specs held Les horizontal over his shoulder, looking dizzy.

Crutchie was nowhere in sight. Davey was off to the side, looking very annoyed at everyone. He had probably tried to calm everyone down unsuccessfully.

Jack stood closest to Katherine and Medda, holding Tiger Lily in his arms.

"Jack, please explain to me how all of this," Medda gestured to the chaos. "happened in the short time we were in the back room."

Jack nodded and set down the kitten. She ran to Katherine, who reached down a picked her up. "Alright, but before I do, Les should probably get down from there before he starts getting sick." Specs got the message and set the little boy down on the couch. Davey had moved to check on him, like the big brother he is.

Then Jack started again. "Okay, so 'ere's what happened..."

*Flashback*

Katherine and Medda disappeared into the back room, leaving Jack and Crutchie in the living room.

Les suddenly came running in, a panicked expression across his face.

"Hey Les. What's wrong?" Jack inquired.

"Uhh... Davey's trying to find me."

Jack and Crutchie exchanged looks. "What did ya do?" Jack asked the boy, who was fidgeting nervously.

"Well, ya see Jack, I was in the bunk room when I saw that Davey was readin' a book. He didn't see me so I thought I'd play a prank on him. I found an old mouse trap and placed it where I knew he'd put his hand then I went invisible. I waited for a few minutes till I heard the trap snap and Davey yell. I couldn't hold in my laughter, so he knew I was there. So I teleported to the hall then ran here before he could get me." Les finished.

Crutchie looked at Jack before they both erupted into laughter. Les was confused and still a little scared so he ran to the opposite side of the couch and faded from view.

Not a minute later, a furious Davey stormed into the room clutching his left hand. Jack and Crutchie wore grins and just stared at Davey in amusement.

"Where is he?" Davey demanded. Jack threw his hands up defensively and Crutchie shrugged. Davey's eyes scanned the room before landing over a certain area.

"Gotcha!" He shouted. He waved his hand and Les reappeared, a disgruntled look upon his face.

"Les, how many times have I told you not to prank me?"

"I don't know."

"More times that I can remember. That's the fourth time this week you've pulled some kind of stunt like that, so as punishment, no desserts for three weeks." Davey scolded. Les let out a groan.

"Now go up to the bunk room and pick up that trap before someone else falls prey to it." Davey finished.

The younger boy halfheartedly nodded the marched up the stairs. Davey turned back to his friends on the couch.

"What am I going to do about him..." He asked, more to himself than anyone else.

"Well, if it'll make ya feel any betta, Medda's with Katherine right now." Jack informed him. Davey glanced at him before nodding.

"Give it back!"

"Why? It looks betta with me anyways!"

"It ain't a toy! Don't break it!"

Albert and Race stomped into the living room. Albert was trying to get something back from Race and if it escalated anymore, they'd break one of the only house rules; No powers when there's an argument/fight. So naturally, Jack intervened.

"Hey, hey! What's this all 'bout?"

"Race stole my bow staff!"

"It's just a stupid stick!"

Jack scoffed. "Really? This is all over Albert's staff?" He ran his hand over his face.

The sound of more feet walking towards them caught his attention. Jojo, Henry, and Romeo entered the room.

"What's with the ruckus?" Romeo asked.

"Long story..." Jack replied simply.

"Hey Jojo, catch!" Race abruptly shouted as he sent the staff flying in his friends direction.

Jojo caught it with ease but confusion. It wasn't until he saw Albert charge at him did he start running.

He dashed out of the living room and disappeared past the kitchen with Albert and Race close behind.

Romeo and Henry left just standing around, dazed and confused after what they had just witnessed.

"Well then.... I gonna get somethin' to eat." Romeo chimed. He waltzed into the kitchen and headed straight for the fridge.

"Not a bad idea Romeo. I think I'll do the same." Henry added following him into the kitchen.

Romeo was rummaging through the fridge in deep concentration, not even realizing his body position.

As Henry was passing behind him and tripped over something, falling face flat on the ground. When he lifted his head up and turned to see what tripped him, he realized it was Romeo's foot, the owner not even bothering to look at him.

Now filled with annoyance and slight anger, Henry picked himself up and dusted off his clothes. He turned to Romeo.

"So, that was yous idea for gettin' back at me when I borrowed your blanket the otha night. Real mature."

Romeo glanced up at him, bewildered. "What are ya talkin' 'bout?"

That was when Henry lunged at him. They rolled around on the floor till they reached the living room.

Jack, Davey and Crutchie heard the commotion and turned to see their brawl.

"Not yous guys too!" Jack exclaimed, burying his head in his hands.

Crutchie stood up and grabbed his crutch.

"Where are you off to?" Davey asked.

"If all this fightin' keeps up, wes gonna need lots of ice before I can heal all o' them." With that, he hobbled out sight.

A shout rang out from the upstairs bunks. Then Les came running in again.

"Les! You did it again?!" Davey cried.

"Not on purpose! I was tryin' to get rid of it and I set it down on a bed for a second but Specs accidentally sat where I had it."

As if on cue, an agitated Specs stomped into the room.

"Uh oh." Les muttered before vanishing from sight.

"Les, you know I can see yous body heat." Specs informed the boy.

Les still tried running, but he didn't get far. Specs grabbed him and slung him over his shoulder.

Jack stood to stop the roughhousing, but then he heard a familiar sound. He turned to see Katherine's kitten trying to find follow Katherine's sent. Jack quickly scooped her up and gently held her in his arms.

That action left the role of referee over the wild boys to Davey. He walked over to Henry and Romeo.

"Guys, enough! Stop fighting!" He said loudly, trying to break up the fight, but to no avail.

Without warning, Race, Jojo, and Albert came speeding through the room. Davey threw his arm up, exasperated.

"Alright, that's it!" He shouted. He held out his hands and everyone except Jack froze in place.

*Present time*

"So that's what happened." Jack finished.

Medda nodded and walked over to Jack, smiling. "What am I going to do with you boys? Always getting into trouble. David, sweetie, please unfreeze everyone."

Davey nodded and with a wave of his hand, all of the boys came crashing down on top of each other. Medda turned to Jack again.

"I told her everything."

"Everything? Okay. And did she pass?"

"Yes she did. You can trust her." Medda replied. Then she started towards the front door, but looked back at the group.

"If any of you need me, you know where I'll be." She smiled. Then she waltzed out the door.

Jack turned around to face Katherine while the boys got off the floor.

"So, how'd it go?" He asked with a grin.

"Are you serious? In the past 48 hours I've been kidnapped, held hostage, drugged, rescued by complete strangers with superhuman abilities, and was told that I'll be granted an ability of my own all while my family has no idea where I am or what happened to me and all you ask me is "How'd it go?!" She snapped at him, tears building up in her eyes.

"I don't even know where I am and you expect me to be okay?!" She cried, holding Tiger Lily close. She turned on her heel and ran to her room and shut the door behind her.

She had to at least tell someone in her family where she was, someone she trusted. Then a thought popped into her head.

She grabbed her phone and dialed a number. It rang a few times before someone picked up.

"Hello?"

"Hi Spot."

("Never fear, Brooklyn is here!" Whoop! We get Spot! If you haven't seen the original Newsies movie Spot Conlon, then you NEED TO!!!! Spot is EPIC! Maybe y'all will get some action in the next chapter if y'all vote and comment y'all thoughts about this chapter. *Porky Pig voice* "Th-Th-Th-That's all folks!")
