Darrys POV

6,000 dollars. Ponys life.

That's the only thing I could think of. Nothing else mattered. I had to save my baby brother. I have to…I promised mom and dad….

FLASH BACK! O:

"Sweetie, may I talk to you?" my mother asked.

"Sure mom," I replied, and followed my mom outside and sat next to her on the bench.

"Sweetie, I need you to promise me something," My mom said.

"Okay," I said.

"If your father and I become missing or die ever in life, I want you to promise me you will take good care of your two brothers and yourself," She said.

"Wait, are you dying?Wh-" My mom stopped me. "Honey, we aren't dying. I just want you to promise me you will do your best to care for you and your brothers," my mom said.

"I promise mom." I said, without any hesitation.

"Thank you," she said, and hugged me.

END OF FLASH BACK!

I can't believe that actually came true. I have to take care of my brothers now..

"-Darry, are you okay?" Soda asked.

"Yeah, why? I asked, completely confused.

"Well, your crying," Soda said.

I didn't notice I was crying till now.

"Oh um, yeah, im okay," I said.

"You sure?" Soda asked.

"Uh-yeah," I said.

"Okay," Soda said.

"Hey, were leaving soon to visit Two-bit and Pony, right?" Steve asked.

"Yeah. Go get cleaned up, Soda, and then we'll go." I said.

Soda grumbled and got up. He got changed and came back out into the living room.

"ready," He said. But he really wasn't. He tried to hide his fear, but he had a hard time doing that. I could see fear in his face.

"Okay, let's go," I said, and grabbed my keys. I followed Steve and Soda out the door.

I stopped Soda before we got to the car.

"Soda, don't be scared. Everything will be okay, I promise. We will get that 6,000 dollars and Pony will live." I said.

Soda just nodded and walked by me.

Man, this is going to be hell…

Sodas POV

I know Darry is trying to make me feel better, but I won't feel any better till I see my Pony and know he's going to be okay.

The drive to the hospital was long and quiet. Nobody tried to talk to me because they knew I wouldn't answer. Steve and Darry talked a little but for the rest of the ride it was silent.

When we got to the hospital I started freaking out. I didn't want to see Pony hurt, but I had too. He was my baby brother. I need him.

We walked into the hospital and to the front desk.

"Ponyboy Curtis," Darry said.

"Im sorry, but he can't have visitors right now. In 2 hours you can come and visit." The nurse said.

I sighed. Not fair.

"Alright. Two-bit Matthews?" Darry asked.

"Hmmm, ah, here he is. Room 504. Are you related to him?" the nurse asked.

"Uh yeah, im his dads uncles cousins son," Darry said, while backing away.

She yelled something at us, but we ran off before she could do anything. Darry was starting to act like Two-bit more and more everyday….

We got into the elevator and cracked up laughing. Wow, It feels like I haven't laughed in ages….

I stopped laughing when the elevator doors opened.

We walked down the hall till we reached room 504. I was scared to see how bad Two-bit was.

When we walked into the room, Two-bit was sitting up eating and watching Mickey Mouse.

"Oh hey guys!" Two-bit said when he saw us.

"Hey man, how've you been?" Steve asked.

"Alright. Some pain, but im doin' preeeetty good. Doc says I can go home today," Two-bit says.

"Good to hear," Darry said.

"Yup. Hey, heard anything about Pone?" Two-bit asked.

"No. Last they told us is that he is in critical condition and-" "Needs surgery." I said, finishing Darrys sentence.

"Oh…" Two-bit said sadly.

"And we don't got the money. We need 6,000 dollars." Darry said.

Two-bit just stared at the wall.

"We will get that 6,000 dollars. We will," Two-bit said.

We will get that money. We will. I hope….

2 hours later ((Still Sodas POV))

We were still in Two-bits room when I heard doctors and nurses yelling, "He's dying! Hurry, Doctor!" I started freaking. It couldn't be Pony….Could it?

"Darry, I'll be right back," I said, and got up and walked out of the room.

I walked down the hallway towards all the yelling. I stopped infront of the room and about screamed. It was Pony…he….he….he flat lined….

"Sir, you need to leave," the nurse said.

"N-no, he's my brother!" I yelled, and ran into the room. I went to Ponys other side and grabbed his hand.

"Baby, you gotta make it, please, Pone, I can't live without you!" I cried.

"Sir, please leave now!" The Doc yelled.

I was pulled away from my baby brothers body. No matter how much I screamed, I was pulled away.

The doctor sighed. "time of death; 1:30 p-" the doctor stopped talking when Pony gasped and the heart monitor started up again.

I can't believe I just saw my baby die again. He's back. Im about to bawl..

"PONE!" I screamed, and ran to his side.

"Pone, baby, don't you EVER scare me like that," I cried.

Pony only groaned and fell into unconsciousness.

I was ordered to leave immediately. I turned to walk out the door when I saw Darry staring at Ponys body wide-eyed. I ran to him and hugged him.

I prayed to God Pony wouldn't flat line anymore. But I knew that was a lie.

We need that 6,000 dollars NOW.

I pulled away from Darry.

"Darry, we need to get the money. NOW!" I yelled.

"I know, Pepsi. We still gotta think of ideas," Darry said.

"I know," I said, still freaked out from what happened to Pony just seconds ago.

"Its okay,Soda, he's alive," Darry said.

"I know, but i watched my baby die! The doctor gave up on him...They almost pronounced him dead, but he came back...OH GOD.." I cried.

Darry just hugged me and led me back to Two-bits room.

"Okay guys, quys, we need ideas on how to get money, fast," Darry said.

Everyone put on there thinking faces.

After 10 minutes of thinking, Two-bit said the sentence i've been dieing to hear.

"I have the perfect idea," Two-bit said.

OH SNAP! Is pony gonna live? Are they gonna get the 6,000 dollars? DUN DUN DUN! Review! –Abby:)
