The LaRusso family started out as a somewhat normal family living in California. Soon the father died from cancer leaving his wife depressed. His money was left to the oldest, Jacob. The wife went mad because he only left her a photograph they were younger. She soon decided that Karley was the devil and kicked her out. Then signed some papers disowning the kids.
Karley and Katt were close so when Karley had to leave, Katt followed like a lost dog. Gabby, being mature, called their brother. He said he would by a house and all three of them could live with him. Gabby didn't have to go, but her crazy mother was starting to scare her.
Jacob bought a fantastic mansion in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Where a gang of our favorite greasers live…
Ponyboy Curtis was walking out of the old movie house thinking. The sun was hiding behind a few clouds. He started on his way home. As he made his way down the sidewalk he glanced at a window. He took a comb out combed back his greasy dark hair. He gave himself an accomplishment smile.
Until, he noticed a glossy red mustang turn the corner. Ponyboy placed his comb back and started walking fast to his house. He noticed the red car follow him slowly. He pace became faster. As he turned a corner, the car skidded past him. He was barely hit. He started to run down a road. "Dam," he cursed under his breath as he reached a dead end.
The mustang pulled up in front of him. He backed away as four Socs got out of the car. One pulled out a switchblade and came towards the poor defenseless boy. The Soc lunged at Pony. He landed right on top of him. The Soc held the blade to Pony's neck.
"How 'bout a haircut, greaser," the Socs threatened as the blade went deeper.
Ponyboy closed his eyes tightly. His breathing hitched. Waiting for the end. When suddenly then man on top of him was pulled off. Ponyboy was still too scared to open his eyes. He pulled himself up and leaned against whatever was close to him. He couldn't breathe and then felt something really hard hit him on the side of the head. The impact was so hard he was knocked out.
Ponyboy POV
I heard voices…girl voices… and a boy. I opened my eyes slowly. There on her knees, was a young girl around my age or younger. She was gazing at me with black, no, dark brown eyes. Her brown bangs covered her face slightly as the rest of long hair went down her back. She leaned closer.
"Hey, are you ok?" she asked. Only then I saw the light bruise on left cheek. It was very light so it must have been new or going away.
I only stared at her and nodded my head slowly. When I nodded my head felt very heavy and there was a pain in my neck. Then I noticed my shit was slightly wet… with blood. My eyes got big. I had blood coming out of a gash in my neck and go down my shirt.
I heard something tear. When I looked back up at the girl she tore a piece of cloth from the bottom of her shirt. She wrapped it around my neck and tied it in the back.
"Do you think you hit his head hard enough, Your Highness?" she giggled and looked over a girl with bright blonde hair pulled into a ponytail. She had a wooden bat in one hand and was leaning on it.
"Yeah, Gabby, Ugly could've had brain damage," a girl with glasses spoke, "If there wasn't any already."
"I don't think he's ugly, Karlyle," unidentified girl said. I felt my face turn light red.
Gabby, I suppose, didn't answer. She just gave a funny look at the girl next to me before she spoke, "He's not dead. So, his brain should be okay." So that was the bang on my head.
"Did any of you get hurt?" a voice said. A boy, or man, said.
"Katt was the only one who was hit, but she is okay. Gabby got most of them pretty good. Katt and I made some good hits, and well know one is hurt."
Katt … Her name was Katt. "What do you mean no one was hurt, look at this poor boy he is covered in blood," Katt said.
"I'm fine," I spoke up.
Katt looked over at me with happy smile. "If you say so, boy."
"I know I'm a boy, my name is Ponyboy, Ponyboy Michael Curtis," I said.
"Well, nice to meet you, Ponyboy," Katt smiled.
There was very long pause… Really long. Eventually the young man spoke up, "We should leave. I have some nice homemade Hawaiian bread waiting at home for us."
"Well, I don't want Hawaiian bread," Katt opposed.
"Well, I don't care what you want. We can't let it go bad," he implied.
"You are the only one who eats it anyway. Plus, we got it yesterday, Jacob," Gabby said.
Jacob gave a shocked looked. "We did no such!" he gaped.
"What about some cheeseburgers," Karlyle spoke up.
"But we had cheeseburgers two days ago," Katt replied.
"They have bread in them!" Jacob yelled.
"Can't we help the child?" Katt yelled while pointing at me.
"I am okay and I am not a child," I said formal. She called me a child. I am a solid 14-year-old boy. I have been 14 for a month and you think people would get that threw their head.
"Ugly, you look a normal ugly 13-year–old-boy, just like Katt," Karlyle sneered. I cringed.
Suddenly, Katt jumped up, which scared the shit out of me. She put one hand on her hip and pointed a finger at Karlyle, "You Karlyle, are wrong, I am not 13. I am 14 and you know it!I have been 14 for a week! So, get it straight,"she huffed, "Plus, Ponyboy is not ugly." With that my face became redder then the first time she said it.
"Hey Ponyboy!" a heard someone yell. I looked around. Sodapop was running towards me waving his arm.
I tried to stand up, but fell back on my ass. Soda walked right in front of me. "Nice going Ponyboy. Fall in front of three pretty girls," he said while pulling me up. Soda helped support me up. Behind him were Darry, Johnny, Two-Bit, and Steve.
Darry walked right up to Jacob, "Thanks, man, for saving my brother. You must be really strong."
Jacob stared at him, "Dude, I didn't do it. My sisters did." He said it so simply that Darry just stared in shock. If you think about, it was weird. A bunch of random girls showing up and kicking four Socs asses. They were girls after all.
Normal POV
While Darry and Jacob were talking, the rest of the gang went to Ponyboy.
Johnny walked right up to Ponyboy and asked, "You OK, man?"
Ponyboy gave Johnny a truthful smile, "Yeah I'm fine."
"Oh my God. It's a puppy!" Katt yelled and ran right up to Johnny. "He is so cute!" She pushed herself into Johnny chest.
Karley grabbed her sister by the collar of her shirt and jerked he away from Johnny. "I saw him first!" Karley shouted. Then she turned to Johnny. "What's your name, Pretty Boy?"
"Johnny Cade," he replied timidly with a blush.
"Well it's nice to meet you Johnny Cade. My name is Karley LaRusso soon to be Cade," she said the last part especially fast.
"What?" Johnny said bewildered.
Karley just smiled. Katt grabbed Karley by her arm. "Look, Karlyle, a super model," she said pointing at Sodapop. Soda smirked at the comment. "What's your name, boy?"
"Jr. Sodapop Patrick Curtis," he said grinning.
All three girls stared a Soda for a moment. "He's so much prettier, then the California surfers."
"Johnny's better looking than him," Karley sneered.
Johnny was again bewildered when he said, "What?"
"Gabby, Karley, Katt, get over here," Jacob called his sisters over.
"What is it Jacob?" Gabby asked.
"Darry, my man here, has offered to take us out to Dairy Queen," he stated.
"I want to go to DQ with Ponyboy and his super model brother," Katt confirmed.
"If Pretty Boy goes, so will I," Karley declared.
There was a moment of silence before Gabby spoke, "Do they have potato chips at DQ?"
