I do not own S.E. Hinton's The Outsiders or the characters, but I use them for entertainment purposes only. Plus I tweaked it up a little and added my own characters.

Chapter One I had just stepped out of my dad's old garage, when this group of popular girls, or socs as they are referred to, had walked up to me on the sidewalk. I had two things on my mind, Where Ponyboy was, and how I was supposed to get home.
"Move!" the blonde one said. "No." I said looking her in the eye.
Then I remembered I was carryin' the black handled switchblade Two-Bit had given, more like stole, my for my birthday.
" Move! Now!" she yelled.
"No!" I said again. She just looked at me, and to my surprise, I could see out of the corner of my eye, someone standing next to me. It was my best guy friend, Ponyboy Curtis. I had afeeling something bad had happened to him, because he stood there wincing in pain. I reached into the pocket of my jeans and pulled out the blade.
" C'mon move!" She screamed.
" You lookin' for a fight??" Ponyboy said venomously.
" No! Just move!" she responded.
" Well I sure as hell ain't movin' for a piece of white trash like you!" I hissed.
She lunged at me. Ponyboy pulled out his blade. I grabbed her hair and ripped away with my blade like there was no tommorrow. Pretty soon, she had the crappiest lookin' hair cut I had ever layed eyes on.
So we were takin' swings at each other and my arm was pretty scratched up from her nails. Her friends had all ran, but Ponyboy had stayed by my side the whole time. Just then I realized, I liked him, I really liked him. But I was kind of busy at the moment and could figure out where we would get married later. Ponyboy bein' the nice kid steps in and says, " Hey! whoa! Stop! Megan, yer arm sure is bleedin"
Then it happened...
