 Now it's only around 10 minutes till the rumble starts. I asked everyone why the fought, and kept a mental note. Soda for fun: Steve for hatred: Darry for pride: Two-bit for conformity; I never really like to fight, except for self-defense. Darry lectured us that if the fuzz showed we beat it out of there.

When we showed up the Shepard's gang was there, then the socs pulled up.

"Stay close to me or Soda, ya hear." Darry confirmed. Darry and Paul talked to each other, then all of a sudden...

"A rumble ain't a rumble without me!" Dally screeched. We all looked in his direction, I look back and a got a fist to the face. The rumble went on for a little while, but one by one the socs left. The greasers are hooting and hollering.

Dally pulled me out when the rumble was done to see Johnny. We sped away in a car he, probably, stole.

We got pulled over but Dally talked him out of the ticket and got an escort to the hospital. While on our way there Dally gave me a lecture n how if you get tough nothing can hurt you.

We arrived to Johnny's room; the doctor said he's getting worse.

"We did it man, we beat the socs" Dally said, trying to cheer up Johnny.

"Fighting is useless" Johnny peeped.

They kept having a conversation till, and I knew it would have happened...

"Stay...stay gold, Ponyboy, stay gold" Johnny muttered.

"So this is what happens when you help people huh? Come on Johnny don't die

on me now!" Dally cried. I feel bad for Dal, the only thing he cared about, just died.

Dally ran out of the building, I still sat next to Johnny stunned at what just happened. How am I going to tell the rest of the gang?
