I could barely process what had just happened right in-front of me. I stood in bewilderment for a few seconds. I had just watched Johnny get chloroformed and then get kidnapped. I snapped out of my shock and began to chase down the person that had their arms around my Johnnycakes. I was yelling at them to stop, with a few obscenities. They turned down an alleyway and when I turned down the alley; they were gone.
I felt my heart sink in my chest, I then got angry at myself.
"Dallas Winston, you fucking idiot! Why did you let him walk alone?!" I growled at myself while tightly grabbing my hair, slightly pulling.
I was shocked at how I just watched Johnny get taken to God knows where. I almost let a tear escape one of my underused tear ducts. I snapped back to reality, well slightly and I began to run to the Curtis'. I wasn't really thinking because every time I thought of something, Johnny was there. I got onto the front porch but stopped myself from opening the door. I had no idea how I was going to tell them without dying from a panic attack. I took in a deep breath and slowly released. I opened the door and it creaked loudly. Soda was on the couch, he looked over at me. I slowly closed the door behind me, I felt slightly sick to my stomach.
"Dallas, you look paler than usual..you okay?" Soda asked and I felt myself almost fall apart. I noticed Two-Bit was sleeping beside Soda, he had drool on his face. I looked at Soda and he had a look of concern on his face.
"Dally, you look sick.." he muttered and slowly stood up.
"To be honest Soda, i'm not okay.." I said and quickly looked way from Soda.
Soda stepped up to me and tried to place his hand on my shoulder. I shrugged his hand off and he sighed.
"I can't help you unless you tell me what's wrong." he said crossing his arms over his chest.
I wanted to pass out onto the floor but figured I shouldn't freak Soda out like that.
"Soda, i'm not sure if I can even say it without vomiting." I said raking my fingers through my hair. I was looking down to the dirty carpet, as if it'll help me. Soda silently waited for me to say something.
"Maybe you'll feel better if you get it off your chest. " Soda said in a soothing tone. I took in a breath and slowly released, this was not going to be easy.
"It's about Johnny.." I slowly spat out, Soda got extra concerned now.
"What about him?" he said fearfully, he had his arms at his sides now.
"He.." I began but couldn't finish, I wasn't even sure if he actually got taken away. Maybe my mind was freaking out.
"What about him?" Soda asked sternly, he must of been extra worried.
"He's gone." I said and could barely believe myself. Did I just lie to Soda or did I tell the truth?
"What do you mean, 'gone'? I swear Dallas, if you hurt him-"
"Jesus Soda, calm your pantaloons." I said defensively, Soda had a scowl on his face.
"What do you mean by 'gone', Dallas?" Soda said annoyed, I sighed.
"He's gone, he got kidnapped.." I said and Soda's mouth opened but closed quickly. He sat there for a moment, his facial expression changed from anger to sadness and then somehow became both at the same time.
"How did that happen?" Soda asked in a fake calm tone. Telling by his facial expression, he was not calm.
"He was walking here and before I followed, Tim Shepard showed up and-"
"Wait, Tim? What did you do to him this time?" Soda said and I sighed.
"It might help if you let me finish, Soda." I said annoyed.
"Tim told me that Johnny being a hybrid was blemishing his reputation because Johnny's mother is apart of his clan. Her having a hybrid child in general makes him look bad." I said and Soda stood there silently.
"What did he say he was going to do to Johnny?" Soda asked in a fearful tone.
I didn't want to tell Soda but I knew better than to lie to him.
"He said he was gonna..k-kill him.." I said but barely spat out the last of it.
Sodas' eyes widened and he began to panic. I tried to calm him before he completely flipped but I could not.
"KILL HIM!? WHAT!?" Soda yelled and I quickly covered his mouth, he aggressively pushed my hand away from his mouth.
"DALLAS, WHY DID YOU LET HIM WALK ALONE?!" Soda yelled and a tear rolled down his face.
"Soda, you have to calm down." I muttered, trying my best not to fall apart like Soda.
"What's with the damn screaming?" I heard Two-Bit say tiredly and then yawn. Soda was almost a basket case, he had buried his face into my chest. Two-Bit sat up slowly and looked at Soda.
"What did you say to him?" Two-Bit asked in a rare seriously tone.
"I don't think you wanna know if you care a lot about Johnny.." I said calmly and his eyes seemed to brighten up.
"You mean the cute kid? What about him?" he asked happily. I wanted to punch him but decided against it.
"He got kidnapped." I said coldly and Two-Bit got a forlorn look on his face.
Soda pulled away from me and moved to the couch, he plopped down onto the couch. Two-Bit put his arm around Sodas' shoulders and Soda buried his face into Two-Bits' chest and began to sob again.
I wanted to freak like Soda but probably worse. I pushed the panic aside and began to walk out the door.
"Where are you going?" Two-Bit asked, he was practically holding Soda in his arms now.
"I'm going to find Johnny." I said determinedly and walked out of the door. I had no idea where to start but I will find him. Maybe even get rid of Tim for good in the process.
