Hey everyone! Well I am in the middle of serious writer's block, which means. I naturally have come up with a new idea for a story.
Now I have recommended that Logan Park write this plot, which I really hope that she/he will! She is a very good writer and believes that she could do a lot better than me, but I'm bored so here it goes…
Big Brothers are Always There
I looked up at Darry; I was too upset and stunned to say a word to him. I mean he had just HIT me. He's never so much as laid a finger on me, but he just pushed me down.
I got up and ran out of my house, not caring if they followed or not. I was faster and could out run even Darry. And that's what I did, I ran. I could here Soda yelling at Darry for pulling a stupid act and heard fast footsteps behind me, but I kept running.
"Come on Johnny get up." I said when I jumped on Johnny in the lot. I saw him jumped and felt bad for scaring him like that but, I was too upset at the moment to even think. He got up and we ran and ran. Never looked back. I had lost Darry and Soda while running towards Johnny. I know they're out looking for me.
"Slow down Pony. What's wrong?" Johnny panted. I slowed my pace for him and felt my pockets.
"He hit me. I swear we used to be just fits before mom and dad died." I said. I could feel the burning in the back of my eyes now.
Johnny said something about his dad hitting him, but I was too scared and tired and upset to hear.
"You got a stick Johnny?"
"Yeah, sure." I watched him fish out a weed from his pocket and I took it from him and quickly lit it up. I took a long drag, savoring to calmness it always brought.
"Let's walk to the park and back. Maybe I'll be cool enough to go back home."
Johnny nodded and we began to walk at a comfortable speed towards the park. I noticed a blue mustang creeping in the darkness not but 5 yards from us on the side walk.
"Hey look what I found Pony. Got a light?"
I jumped up on the jungle set, "Yeah, here you go Johnny."
Johnny didn't even get to light his weed before the soc stopped their car and got out. Well, stumbled out would be more appropriate in their drunken state.
"What are they doing here?" Johnny whispered, I could tell he was scared real bad.
"Stay cool." I said back.
"H-Hey you're out of your territory. You better watch it."
I smiled at Johnny, he had at least tried.
The one I know as Bob rolled his eyes, "No you better watch it pal."
We starred at each other for awhile before Bob spoke up again.
"You know what a greaser is?" he didn't wait for us to answer.
"White trash with long hair."
I looked at Johnny, and keeping our eyes on all the soc I jumped of the jungle set.
I looked hard at Bob, their leader so to speak.
"Know what a Soc is?" I asked
Bob looked at me and said, "What?"
I grinned, "White trash with mustangs and madras." I said before I spit in his face.
"Get em!" he yelled.
I looked at Johnny and we both took off running. I had just turn around to fountain, and my foot slipped a little. Usually I would have been fine, but I was still distracted with what had happen earlier that the soc were on me within seconds. I was trampled to the sidewalk and Johnny to the grass.
"Get AWAY!"
I yelled, but they simply punched my head, which hurt a lot. I turned my head to see Johnny on the ground. He stayed their, and one soc kicked him in the ribs, I cringed.
I felt myself being lifted off the ground and that's when my mind finally turned on. I began to struggle with all my strength. I tried to punch and I got a few good ones in but they still carried me over to the fountain. However I didn't become afraid until my body was thrown underwater. As soon as the ice water hit my skin adrenaline kicked in. I struggled harder than before. I broke the surface with a gasp.
"JOHNNY!" I yelled, but I was pushed back underwater again before I could say anything more. When I broke the surface again I yelled, "HELP!"
This time though Bob grabbed his can of beer and poured it in my mouth. I gagged because I had been trying to catch my breathe and had inhaled the beer. It burned traveling down my throat, but I was thrown under the water again. This time I hadn't gotten to take a breath. Water filled my lungs and I tried not to breathe but I could feel myself losing the battle. My struggles became less and my vision began to dim.

Me and Darry had been looking for Pony for awhile now. I knew from the look on his face he was shocked and scared. I was mad at Darry for hitting him, but I knew he didn't mean it. I looked at Darry as we ran and clearly saw the guilt on his face.
"PONY!" I yelled again into the night. It had been another hour. We had checked the lot and hadn't seen him or Johnny. It gave me some comfort that Johnny was with him, but it was late and Soc were always looking for trouble.
Darry slowed down, so I did too. We were walking at a quick pace now instead of running.
"Why not check the park?" I suggested.
Darry nodded, "yeah. Okay"
So we began to walk to the park. We were getting close to the park and I could hear distant voices. I stopped walking, Darry did the same.
"You hear something?" I asked Darry, he shook his head. He stayed silent and listened, and so did I.
I could hear laughing, "Someone give me a juice for this greaser huh?" I heard someone say. I saw Darry tense up, and we began to walk in silence towards to voices.
"JOHNNY…HELP!" Both me and Darry froze. We knew that voice anywhere. It sounded frightened and desperate. I took one look at Darry and we were both running full speed towards to park. I ran around a jungle set and saw about 3 guys in a fountain struggling with something, or someone. Fear gripped me when I saw Johnny on the ground unconscious. That person in the fountain was Ponyboy!
I jumped on the closest soc. "Get off my brother you son of a bitch!"
I punched him hard in the head and he went down like a ton of bricks. I've never been so mad in my life. I saw Darry, just as mad grab two soc by the back of the shirts and yank them away from the still body. Panic gripping me I jumped in the fountain. I grabbed the still body and yanked him up and out of the water. Everything in my body prayed for it not to be Pony, just some random kid, but it wasn't.
I lifted Ponyboy up and carefully and quickly took him out of the water. I laid him on the grass and looked him over. He was white as a ghost, his lips blue and his hair stuck to his face.
My heart stopped in my chest when I notice one important factor missing.
My head swung up towards Darry.
"HE"S NOT BREATHING!" I screeched. I was in hysterics now. My hands shook and I didn't know what to do.
Gentle hands pushed me away, and I reluctantly moved out of the way. Darry put his head near Pony's mouth; "Shit!" was all he said. He placed his hands in a fist over Pony's chest and pushed down three times before tilting Pony's head back and pinching his nose. He gave Pony two short even breathes before doing compressions again. He stayed in pattern for awhile and I felt that familiar fear grip my heart.
"Come on Pony." I cried. Darry looked at me.
"Go get help!" he yelled and even in my dazed state I could tell he was scared. Darry never got scared but here he was, our baby brother not breathing, his life in the balance.
I took off at top speed towards the closet house, which happened to be Two-Bit's house. I pounded on the door. I heard Two-Bit swear and yell, "Coming." But I still pounded.
As soon as he opened the door I slid past him and down the hall towards his phone. Two-Bit stayed at the door, not moving just looking outside then at me then back outside with a confused beyond help look. I turned my back and told everything to the operator. I told her we were gonna rush him to the hospital cuz we all know it would take to long for an ambulance to show up. She said a crew would be ready at the hospital. I thanked her and hung up.
I grabbed Two-Bit's arm and dragged him out the front door. He stumbled with me but still kept up. I looked around for his car.
"Where is you car Two-Bit?" I shrieked. I knew tears were coming down my face again.
"Round back…" I went to walk away but he grabbed my arm.
"You're not driving till you tell me what the hell is going on." He said
"We don't have time!" I yelled and jerked free of his grasp. He followed me and jumped in the driver's seat before me.
"Make time." He said.
I jumped in the passenger seat. "Drive to the park. Pony was attack by soc…they…they were drown... drowning him. He wasn't breathing Two-Bit." I said and my voice cracked. I saw Two-Bit's eye widen and soon his car was speeding into the park, his headlight shown and I saw Darry still performing CPR, but I noticed Johnny sitting up with a shocked, petrified expression.
"Come on Darry." I yelled from the car, I opened the back door and Darry easily lifted Pony off the ground and placed him into the car's back seat. Sliding in next to him to continue CPR. Johnny rushed forward too, and we all piled into Two-Bit piece of junk and rove towards the hospital. It took 5 minutes for a 15 minute drive but as soon as we entered the hospital's parking lot I jumped out and grabbed Pony from Darry. With strength I didn't know I had I picked Pony up and ran inside with him.
"HELP!" I yelled and a doctor I suppose that was waiting for us rushed over. She rolled a gurney and I gently place Pony down. He pushed him down a hall yelling medical terms I had no clue of the meaning. I watched from a window as they hook him up to a heart monitor and the line stayed flat, and a loud wailing filled the air.
Sorry for the cliffy but if I get at least 7 reviews I'll update within 2 days, I hope you like and I hope that if Logan Park does do this plot she/he does a fabulous job!
