Hii. Let me just apologize in advance for any medical mistakes I might have written, I'm not a doctor, so I don't know much about all that. But hey, I tried. I hope you enjoy this chapter. Thanks.

Disclaimer: I don't own the outsiders.

"I don't know I just got a call. Il pick you up soon."

I hang up and speed to get there quick. I don't exactly know what happened with Pony, but it's not the kind of thing you want to have to go through.

I park the car in front of Soda's work and honk the car, waiting for him to come. After a couple of seconds I see his golden blonde hair rush to the car. We go as soon as he closes the door, not even bothering with a greeting. The car ride is silent. What would you be talking about if you knew your kid brother was in the hospital?

We park the car and sprint inside, wishing that pony'l be okay. I don't know what would happen if we lost him too. He was always different then the rest of the gang, but everyone cared about him. Even Steve.

We wait in the waiting room for almost an hour, but we still haven't heard anything. Two-bit and Steve join us later. Then the four of us sat in silence. Trying not to think of every bad possible outcome. Hoping that pony will be okay. Wishing that it's Nothing too serious.

*Soda*

After another 10 minuets or so a doctor walks in.

"Ponyboy Curtis?"

All four of us stand stand at once. Darry goes up to him first.

"Darry Curtis," he says while shaking his hand,"How's Pony?"

"I'm afraid it's not looking too good. He was jumped, and got a few broken ribs and bruises, but the stab wound is what concerned us the most. It caused him a lacerated liver and kidney and also perforated his right lung. He is currently in surgery, Il make sure to update you about his condition. You should be able to visit him if the surgery goes well," he looks at two-bit and Steve, " but only immediate family. Now if you'll excuse me I have to go." He leaves without goodbye. But a lack manners don't really bother anyone in these circumstances. We retake our seats, with even less hope than before.

This was a pretty short chapter. Sorry, I didn't know what else to add. Thanks for reading anyways. Please review and tell me what you think. Sorry for any spelling or grammar mistakes.
