"Oh no, don't apologize, I was just worried about you." Hoot replied quickly. Three Left just smiled at his friend.
as Hoot pulled out the splinter he flinched, "There..." Hoot gently squeezed his shoulder. "You were very brave." she said
a small amount of blood went and stained his pants, he quickly bowed down in order to tie Thunder's hankerchief around his leg, a wave of dizziness hit him square in the face, he leaned against the wall, taking a few deep breaths. after which, he walked towards the ferry, with a slight limp.

Hoot walked slowly, not wanting Three Left to push himself too much.
"You going to be okay?" She pursed her lips some. "Maybe we should stay in Jersey, let your leg rest a little."
It wouldn't be the best idea to make a long journey while having an injury.

"You going to be okay?" Hoot asked.
Three Left wasn't sure he would make it all the way to Bronx, his leg might not cut it.
"Maybe we should stay in Jersey, let your leg rest a little."
"i guess i might have to miss Hoot." he said. "mr Reed will give me a earfull, tomorrow though, i am still sighned in. but for tonight, the Jersey boys lodge it is. How much does it cost overhere?"

"I guess I might have to Miss Hoot."
Hoot nodded and gave him a pat on the back. "The boys lodge isn't too far from here."
"Mr. Reed will give me an earful tomorrow though. I am still signed in, but for tonight the Jersey boys' lodge it is. How much does it cost over there?"
"Don't worry, I'll go with you and give a good word. I'm sure Mr. Reed will understand," she assured. "As for how much," she paused thoughtfully. "I'm not sure. The girls' lodge charges 5 cents which I hear is what most of the girls pay in the other boroughs, so I'm guessing it'll be roughly the same as Bronx for the boys."

"The boys lodge isn't too far from here." Three Left smiled "good, because my leg is on it's last legs."
"Don't worry, I'll go with you and give a good word. I'm sure Mr. Reed will understand," "i hope you're right miss Hoot. This is the second time this week, miss Sand wont be happy" he said shaking his head.
"As for how much, I'm guessing it'll be roughly the same as Bronx for the boys." Three Left patted his pocket "i guess i have enough then."

"Good, because my leg is on its last legs."
She gave him a small smile. "Definitely good that it's close then."
"I hope you're right, Miss Hoot. This is the second time this week. Miss Sand won't be happy."
Hoot pursed her lips. Twice? That wouldn't be good. "I'll talk to her," she reassured him.
"I guess I have enough then."
She nodded. "If not, I'm sue Mr. Clark would still let you stay. Might give you a few chores to do."

"Definitely good that it's close then."
Three Left looked up at her, with a exhausted look on his face, he was absolutly drained, and unless the lodge was next door, or next door to next door, he wasn't sure he would make it.
"I'll talk to her," hearing that he relaxed a bit. "thank you a thousand times miss Hoot." he said breathing heavily. he was so tired, he would put the sawmills out of business, with all the logs he would cut tonight.
"If not, I'm sure Mr. Clark would still let you stay." Hoot said Three Left just nodded and smiled.
"Might give you a few chores to do." "as long as i can sit down, i'll be happy to do a few chores."

Hoot shook her head some, noting how tired her friend look. It was a very good thing that the lodge was just around the corner!
"Thank you a thousand times, Miss Hoot."
She just smiled and shook her head. "No need to thank me."
After all, wasn't that what friends were for? She didn't want her friend getting into trouble because she had insisted he stay and rest. The lodge owner and newsies leader would understand. If not, she knew she could convince them somehow.
"As long as I can sit down, I'll be happy to do a few chores."
Hoot laughed softly. "Don't worry. I'm sure Mr. Clark will let you rest before he made you do any chores."
They made it to the lodge a few short minutes later. It had been quite a walk despite the short distance. They couldn't go too fast for the sake of Three Left's injury. But they made it, and Mr. Clark was more than understanding. He had even insisted that Three Left didn't have to pay that night. Hoot was slightly surprised but grateful. Mr. Clark could be a bit gruff, but deep down you could see he truly cared for the Newsies, even if they weren't from his borough.

"Don't worry. I'm sure Mr. Clark will let you rest before he made you do any chores."
he nodded. pushing himself to make it to the lodge.
Three Left was suprised, but he was not going to turn down a free room. it wasn't that he didn't have the money, but after what happened he had decided he deserved a little break.
it would enable him to face the deep deep trouble he would be in tomorrow, he knew Hoot would be there for him, but he wasn't sure how it would turn out.
"see you tomorrow miss Hoot, i had a wonderfull afternoon."
