Ponyboy walked down the street singing a song that he had just heard in the movie he had just seen. He had a really good voice and he loved to sing so he sang a lot and everyone was jealous of his really good voice. "I feel pretty! Oh so pretty! I feel pretty and witty and gaaaaay! And I pity any girl who isn't me today!" he sang way out loud because no one was listening and just some cars were going by and they had their windows shut anyways so it didn't matter because they couldn't hear him sing even if he sung at the top of his lungs.

He looked around but no one was there so he started skipping a little bit. Then suddenly someone pushed him to the side! "Hey Greaser need a haircut or how about we just kill you instead?" It was a soc! The pushed him down and started hitting him and kicking him really hard. Ponyboy started crying and he heard a scary cracking noise. It was bones breaking! He counted as they cracked! Crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack!! That was eleven broken bones! It hurt so much and some of the bones were poking out of his skin! There was no way that was good at all. "OW OW OW OW!! HELP!!" He yelled really loud hoping someone would hear him. "Shut up Greaser no one cares about you." Ponyboy closed his eyes and curled up and tried to wait until it was over.

Then he fainted.
