A/N: Hey, guys! This chapter is not in Ponywoman's POV, though, this is what was happening in Tulsa while they were gone. I promise it will be just as crazy as the other chapters, if not more so. But before I forget, go look at my other fanfiction. I'm probably going to take it down. What do you think?
Anyway, without further ado, the chapter we've all been waiting for...
It was about noon on Tuesday, and Darry was at work. Yes, even though Ponyboy, Ponywoman, Johnny, and Cadie were missing - dead, for all he knew - he still attended work, because he's bitter and doesn't care about Ponyboy, despite the revelation at the end of the novel.
But even Darry gets tired sometimes, which is why he decided to allow himself 5 minutes' break to have some coffee (which he drinks obsessively).
Carefully stepping off the roof onto his ladder, he muttered quietly to himself. "Careful...Careful..." Unfortunately, his prompts were pointless, because just as his weight landed on the ladder, it fell backwards.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" Darry screamed louder than any girl in Oklahoma, preparing himself to hit the ground within a second. But to his immense relief, he landed in the pool!
Unfortunately (again), as he surfaced, he noticed some strange, silver triangles floating in the water, circling him...
With another shreik, he realized what the shapes were: sharks. He desperately tried to swim to shore (still screaming), his strokes made up of wild thrashes and splashing.
Just then, everyone's favorite manager ran from the front of the house. Darina came tearing through the gate, and discarded her clipboard onto the ground when she realized what was happening to her beloved.
"I'm coming, Darry!" she yelled, and then leapt into the pool after him, her weight causing a huge splash because there was so much of it.
The sharks were quickly scared away by her ugly face.
"I'll never let go, Darry! I'll never let go!"
"Thank you, my love!" panted Darry. He then said the same thing Ponywoman did the night it all began..."By the way, you have a bit of a mustache, sweetie."
Darina let go of Darry and swam to the shore herself. Darrel never got his coffee.
A/N: That's all for today, guys.
