This is my first time writing so please forgive me.

Disclaimer:I don't own the Outsiders and never will.

I returned to Tusla, Oklahoma for a lot of reasons. But I didn't think any of these reasons would cause me to be where I am now.

"Try that stunt again you little bitch, and we'll be sure to do more than beat you next time!" I laid on the ground, trying to cover my head as best I could. I pretended to be in much more pain then I really was. Maybe then they would leave. I heard them back off. Thank god, they're leaving.Then I felt a sharp kick to my head and I felt the darkness creeping in.

Darry's POV

By the time Two-Bit and I came back from the Dingo the sun was already beginning to set. This was one of those rare evenings I didn't have work. Two-Bit started telling one of his story's that never seem to have a point while I tried to figure out how much work I'd have to do tomorrow. Two-Bit whistles lowly and I stared at him questionably. He nodded forward. A body with long black hair was laying in the middle of the sidewalk. We walked forward and Two-Bit kneeled down besides them.

"Some dame. A pretty one at that." He said, cocking an eyebrow. "She must have gotten pretty beat up. I've never seen her around before."

She very pale with long black hair. Their was blood coming from her forehead and mouth. Two-Bit shook her gently.

"Hey, hey you alive?"

"Hmmmm?" She groaned.

"What's your name?" I asked.

"Fawn. Fawn Harrison. Where am I?" She said still laying down, her eyes closed.

"On the east side of town. Where are you supposed to be?" Two-Bit said, looking up at me.

"Far from where I should be." Was all she mumbled. I knew the look in Two-Bit's eyes. Until about a year ago, Two-Bit probably wouldn't even care about her. He may have even finished off what the guys started. But thing have changed since then. We've all become softer or more caring, I don't know. I carefully picked her up in my arms and we headed home.

This is a pretty short chapter but the others should be longer. And I don't really know how to write in Darry's POV really well.
