Welcome to the Gang
Ponyboy was at the movies waiting for Jonny Cade to hurry up. Getting impatient, Ponyboy started to count the cars driving. It has been twenty minutes since he got here, and was getting pretty bored. Screech!! A bus pulled up right in front of the movie theatre, and out stepped a girl that had a look to her saying 'back off don't mess with me' and a bag. Pony noticed her hair was slicked back with…well grease and had on a open plaid shirt with a black tank-top inside and jeans torn at the knee and by the thigh.
She came walking up to Ponyboy and was about to ask him a question when she was pulled back by the wrist and turned to face the person who grabbed her. "Oh, look here, aren't we lucky," scoffed a tough looking soc, " We got another greaser and she's a girl." Ponyboy didn't see the girls face but he could tell she was getting angry by the way her fist were curling up.
"You ain't gonna label me!" shouted the so-called greaser girl," And so what if I'm girl?! It doesn't mean I can't fight, and plus if we ever fight I would totally kick your preppy little butt!" with that she flipped them off.
"Were so scared" mocked a smaller soc, "C'mon guys lets let her feel at home, then the fun'll begin." With that said the small group left the girl standing there dazed at what happened.
"Are you all right there miss?" asked Pony moving forward towards the girl.
"Mhm, yah I'm fine just a little…..well you know out of it, my names Grace by the way, I'm 14 turning 15 in 2 days." mumbled Grace.
"I'm Ponyboy and I'm 14," introducing himself, "So….. Grace, why you're here by yourself in Oklahoma?"
"My parents thought me changing places would change my attitude." Grace said as she scratched the back of her neck.
" You wanna meet my brothers and friends, but my older brother might not be home cause of work?" asked Ponyboy.
"Sure why not?" said Grace as she gathered her bag and they were off.
"Soda! I'm home!" announced Pony pulling Grace into the house.
"Hey Pony," Soda said as he hugged him and noticed the girl that was latched to him, "Oh ho ho Pony, you got a lady" slapping Pony's arm in the process. Grace just stood there unsure of what to do.
"I'm Sodapop, but you can call me Soda" Soda extended his hand for her to shake, "You wanna meet the guys?"
"Grace and sure" she just smiled and shook his hand. He led her outside where all the boys were messing around but stopped when they noticed Grace.
"Who's the girl?" asked a tall guy in a leather jacket looking at her.
"This is Grace, she just moved to Oklahoma," started Pony " and guess what? She stood up to some socs!"
"Did you now?" asked a boy in a plaid shirt, "How much were there?"
Grace just shrugged not knowing.
"What did you say to them?" asked a boy in a white tank top.
"I don't really remember, something about, if I fought with them I would win or something and the flipped them off" smiled Grace.
"How 'bout joining us greasers?, You got spunk and we could use that" asked the guy in the leather jacket that was looking at her earlier.
"Sure" Grace said feeling welcome.
"I guess its settled then" started Ponyboy and Sodapop, " Welcome to the gang!!!!!"
Let the fun begin.
