Well thank you for the support of either you reading it or even reviewing it. Well here is Chapter 2, it is a little bit shorter then the first but still it is a chapter. Thank you for my reviewers who review and gave me insight it was well thought of. Again, excuse any grammer and sp errors I am trying the best I can. :)

Warning: There is violence, and cursing in this chapter

Disclamer: I do not own The Outsiders and I thank S.E. Hinton for letting me use her ideas to help spark my creative ideas. I only own Natalie, and any other characters my mind makes up. (I do not own the song Leave Out All the Rest by Linkin Park)

Chapter 2: The Dream

When my time comes

Forget the wrong that I've done

Help me leave behind some

Reasons to be missed

And don't resent me

And when you're feeling empty

Keep me in your memory

-Linkin Park

"Let go of me!"

I struggled against the weight that was on top of me. My arms and legs were pinned down and some one was on my stomach. I was trying to shake them off, but they would not budge. Stupid Soc, asshole son of a…." I cursed them out not really caring about my well being. If they wanted to do this then fine. I will just make it harder for them.

They slugged me two times after I had finished. "Shut up girly."

I felt the cold smooth hilt of a switchblade against my neck. "You don't shut up you will be getting a haircut." "Darry, Soda, Pony, Two-bit, Caleb!" I called for my brothers even though I knew they were no where near me.

"Hey, get off of her" I turned my head sideways at the sound of the voice. I recognized that voice. I saw Caleb running towards me at a fast pace. The sad truth was that I knew what would happen in the end and it was not pretty.

I started to yell and scream, if I could not change reality maybe my dreams I could control. "Caleb get away, I can handle this, just leave you don't know what will happen." I felt tears threaten to run as I saw he was not taking my plead and was running toward me. This is not happening again, please God, not again.

He pushed the guy that was on my stomach off and I felt a gush of fresh air rush through me. I started to fighting harder and faster throwing punches at my attackers hoping to get away and bring Caleb with me. Once I found myself free, I ran toward him hoping to pull him away and escape.

Then everything stopped.

I turned to face the person who was holding fate in a hand held gun. I froze, knowing that history might be repeated at that moment. I got ready to duck or run at a moments notice.

Then a pair of hands pushed me to the ground hard. I turned around to hear a single gunshot.

Bang!

I looked up to see Caleb's face contorted with pain and anguished. "No!" I screamed as he crumpled to the ground. Please not again, please don't die in my arms. I crawled over where he was laying. At that point everything disappeared "Come on don't die on me Caleb." I searching frantically for the wound and once I found it I was applying pressure on it. His blood was coming out and staining my hands. I found myself looking into his eyes; they weren't the same warm careless ones I was used to seeing. Instead I saw cold, dark eyes that were huge and starring back at me.

Hot tears escaped my eyes stinging the cuts on my face, but I didn't care. They had killed him in my dreams just like in reality.

I felt a pair of hands grab my shoulders and yank me backwards. I fought hard hoping to get back to my fallen friend. However, they were stronger then me and I found myself a couple of feet away from him. They pushed me down and held me down. I saw the end of the gun over me, then saw it move toward me until I felt it hit me.

Darkness suddenly was washing over me like waves crashing into the shore. I thought I heard my brother's faint voice "Angelface, angel, wake up come on baby, wake up." The voice was warm and inviting as I closed my eyes hoping this nightmare would soon end.

Well there it is Chapter 2. Again, I hope you enjoy it. Please review everything helps me as a writer improve. Thank you,
