This is actually my essay thing I had to write for English class. Were currently reading 'The Outsiders' I love the book so far. Although we've only read to like chapter 7. Sorry for any misspellings or grammer errors. Im only in eighth grade so don't judge me.

I DO NOT OWN THE OUTSIDERS OR ANYOTHER CHARACTER!


"You ain't a'woofin'," Ponyboy said rubbing his arms. He was about to say something else when a horn blasted. I had almost jumped out of my skin. I looked up to see a blue Mustang circling the park. I realized that the Soc's had spotted us. Ponyboy muttered something, I heard him say something like "What do they want? This is our territory, What are the Soc's doing this far east?"

I shook my head as I said "I don't know." I have a hunch that they're looking for us." We picked up their girls"

"Oh Glory," Ponyboy groaned., "This is all I need to top off a perfect night. Wanna run for it?"

"It's too late now." I muttered. "Here they come." I felt my face pale. The five Soc's were walking like they were drunk. I felt my hand reach into my back pocket and grab a hold of my switchblade.

As they walked closer I looked at them and on the guy's name who I think is Bob had rings on his fingers. Images of me getting jumped flashed through my mind as the Soc's got closer.

Then he spoke, slurring a bit, "Hey whatta ya know? Here's the little greasers that picked up our girls. Hey greasers."

I tried to sound threatening as I growled "You're outa your territory, You'd better watch it."

Bob was eying me as he said "Nup, pal yer the ones who'd better watch it. Next time you pick up a broad, pick up yer own kind - dirt" He continued to say "You know what a greaser is? White trash with long hair." I gasped and glared at Bob.

That's when Pony spoke up with an angry voice, "You know what a Soc is? White trash with Mustangs and madras." Pony then spit at the Soc's.

Slowly shaking his head as a devious smile spread across Bob's face. "You could use a bath greaser. And a good working over. And we've got all night to do it. Give the kid a bath David."

Ponyboy's eyes widened as the Soc named 'David' went after him. Pony tried to run but David was faster. He pinned Ponys arms behind his back and shoved his head into the fountain.

Without a second thought I pulled out my switchblade and lunged at Bob. He tried to fight me off but I was stronger. Before I knew what happened my switchblade found its way into Bob's chest.

I pulled Ponys head out of the fountain and then pulled my switchblade out of the dead body. I leaned my head against the fountain and tried to realize what had happened. The other Soc's fled after I stabbed Bob.

Ponyboy started to cough up water. He sat up and turned green when he saw Bob's body in a puddle of blood.

"I killed him." I said slowly so I wouldn't show my hysteria. "I killed that boy." I looked over at Bob, laying in a growing dark crimson puddle of liquid.
