《What Happens Now: Sequel to Adopted by Thomas Sanders And The Sanders Sides》Opening Night of Newsies
Advertisement
Aricka waited nervously on the Broadway stage. She still couldn't believe she was here. On Broadway! This had been her dream since she was in the orphanage. Iain Young, the new Crutchie, came up before the show and gave her a reassuring hug. "Relax-you're one of the Newsies now," he says. She smiles at him.
"I'm just worried about my babies," she answers. He nods; she'd shown them pictures.
"Is your husband bringing them?" Aricka nods.
"After the show."

Jeremy Jordan was the man leading her onstage in Carrying the Banner. "I have a headline for you: Cheeky Boy gets Nothing for his Efforts," she says, and Jeremy leads her off. She was shaking like a leaf, so Jeremy-or JJ as she calls him-got her water.

*Time skip*
"You snuck up on me Jack Kelly. I never saw it coming." Aricka says. The music starts, and she begins singing,
"
." Andrew smiles at her, and starts singing,
"We was never meant to meet
And then we meet
Who knows why
One more stranger on the street
Just someone sweet passing by
An angel come to save me
Who didn't even know she gave me
Something to believe in
For even a day
One day may be forever
But that's okay
That's okay
And if I'm gone tomorrow
What was ours still will be
I have something to believe in
Now that I know you believed in me..."
They both sang,
"Do you know what I believe in,
Look into my eyes and see..."
"If things were different.." Jack says.
Katherine asks, "What if you weren't going to Santa Fe?"
"And if you weren't an heiress. And if your father wasn't after my head."

"You're not really scared of my father," she says.
"No," Jack replies softly. "But I am pretty scared of you."
They smile at each other, and Andrew sings,
"And if I'm gone tomorrow..."
"" she adds.
"
..."
"I have something to believe in.."
"!" her and Andrew kiss and the scene ends.

*end of the musical*
Aricka runs onstage for her bow and smiles. Her first Broadway musical over.
Afterward, she went to the stage door, where her family was waiting-and there, right next to her husband, was Dean. Grinning, she hugs him, and he congratulates her. Dan hands her baby Amaya and they talk for a few moments before she had to go backstage after signing some autographs.

El's Revenge
“Revenge is not for the dead- we, as the living, take revenge to relieve the burden we feel,” I whispered into the air. “Salvation for the people who suffered because of you,” I watched as the city burned in the flames. “Salvation for the people like me, who believed in the proclaimed heroes when in reality they were the devils.” I smiled faintly as the ‘holy land’ of those ‘saints’ was destroyed. I heard rustling sounds as Charlotte came to stand next to me, grabbing my hand. “El, are we the bad guys?” If I was still the same as I was before, I might’ve broken down and started crying. Now, it was different. “A villain is just another victim. They cry and mourn, it’s just that no one heard, leading them into madness. It’s one of the reasons why we know the most, but care the least.” I took a deep breath. “We may be the bad guys in other peoples’ eyes, but in my story, we’re the heroes.” Charlotte took in my words for a while and pondered, before nodding in agreement. “As children, we loved the heroes, as adults we understand the villains.” I looked at her and bonked her on the head, earning an angry glare from her. “Hey! You’re barely an adult yourself you know,” she grumbled. I laughed and ruffled her hair, before countering her. “At least I’m not 12. You can’t even be considered a teenager at that age.” After that, we silently watched the flames ravage the land, before leaving.
