[Jenna's Thoughts]
Words from the Author- This is my first Newise Fic. I don't own anyone or anything from the movie, Newises. I wish I did own them. Only people I own are Jenna Riggs and the evil Uncle Jon. This story takes place three days before the 1st Anniversary of the Newise Strike of 1899. My character is a runaway girl from Santa Fa. She comes to live in the Manhattan Newise Lodge House. A few mouths before the strike, pretending to be a boy, where she lived with the newises for about two years, under her last name, Riggs. You will learn more about her past in the story. It will be written in Jenna's pov in Chapter 1 and through the whole story until the last chapter. I can't write the way the newises talk, I tried but it didn't work for me; so please bear with me on this. Now on with the story.
PrologueYou see a young girl, around 17-18 years old, with long brown hair and icy blue eyes. She wears a short white dress with matching shawl and shoes. She stands alone on the bridge that separates Brooklyn and Manhattan, she stares off over the water, thinking. She turns and looks at you. She smiles, giving you a warm feeling in your heart. "Hello," she spits in her hand and holds it out to you, you look at her funny. "Oh sorry, I guess you're not a newise. My name's Riggs. Well, that's my Newise name it's also my last name too; but you can call me Jenna."
Jenna turns back looking over the water. "I bet you are thinking, 'Why is there a beautiful young girl standing alone on a bridge?' Well, I'll tell you; I'm thinking about how my life was before this day. Would you like to hear what happen?" You nod. "Ok. I've been a Manhattan Newise for 2 years, but I was pretending to be a boy, because I was hiding from my past. I fought with the Newises of New York in the Strike of 1899 against Joe Pulitzer, Will Hearst and other greats in the newspaper business. Have you ever heard of Jack Kelly?" You nod again. "Well, I was his best friend of two years. I know about his past, his dreams, his everything that made him that way." You look at her funny. "Oh not like that. We are more then just best friends, but that's going to far into the story. Anyways, this story takes place three days before the 1st Anniversary of the Newise Strike. I was busy selling my papes when…"
Words from the Author- (drives under her rock) Sorry to put you all on a cliffhanger or something. But that's what I got. I am half way done with Chapter 1, so it should be up tomorrow, but only if I am not being lazy. Later everyone. Please review.
