Name: April Elisa Rose Hodge
Age: 17
History: April is the middle child of the Hodge quadruplets, second-to-oldest among them (March of course taking the lead). Each of the quads developed their own special talent in their youth to display in the circus with the other carnies. For April it was acrobatics. Nightly she would flip and tumble here and there like a monkey on caffiene. She loved her little talent and often flaunted it outside of the shows and practices.
The shooting had been a complete accident. It wasn't too long before the quads started out for New York City. Uncle Chester had been terribly drunk. Someone had gotten a gun into his hands before the night was out two of Canada's finest carnies had been taken up to heaven. The decision was later made that America was the next big adventure. Train tickets were bought and sigts were set on Ellis Island.
But tragedy once again struck the Hodge family in the form of a train crash. In the crash the sisters were separated from each other and left to get to New York by their own means.
When April arrived on Ellis Island, she went through the ques and medical examinations with a clean bill of health and no name change. Instead if getting a job on Coney Island's midway she headed to Queens and became a newsie.
