We don't own the Outsiders, but we own our characters. This is a story by an Outsiders posting group on yahoo. It' off to a pretty good start, if I say so myself... Umm, so you understand it, Jessica is in an insane asylem, Karen is at yet another club, Vanessa's in a limo, and Lauren's in prison. I deleted the original author's note (it's on my site), so it isn't clarified very well in some of these.

Jessica picked through the mashed potatoes that she could
tell came from a box and the preheated Salisbury Steak. She poked
the jell-o and then looked to the carton of juice sitting at the end
of the tray. She reached over, taking an immediate interest in the
box of concentrated liquid. Instantly the grape flavored substance
was slung across the room in a fit of glee and giggles covering an
instantly sobbing Rebecca Huddleston, Jessica Winston's roommate.
She stopped and shot the teary eyed lunatic a devilish smile that
turned into an angry glare, "Shut up!" But it was too late the nurse
had appeared with drugs to calm Miss Winston, as she had many times
before.
"Jessica! What is the meaning of this? Why did you do this?"
Jessica stared blankly at the nurse, no words came just as
before. And in all honesty Jessica didn't have an answer…it just
seemed like the thing to do at the time; after all reeking havoc was
in her blood; she was a Winston.
"Lauren," Lindsay giggled as they hid behind a bush just
outside the prison, "I never thought you had the balls."
Lauren laughed in response as she hushed her friend, the
scent of freedom so near. After the two had giggled it out for a
minute Lauren turned to Lindsay, "I never had the balls."
Both girls turned back into a giddy mess laughing at one
another, completely intoxicated by the fresh outside air that had
replaced the musty, cold, stale jail oxygen.

Soda was still in the back with the girl he was talking to. He only
had about enough time to find out her name and how old she was before
their lips met. (Sodas a bad boy in this one.) Her name is Sabrina
and she 17 like him.
Steve had come back to the back to get something and saw Soda and
Sabrina "talking" and just laughed to himself.
"Hey Soda got over Sandy pretty quick didnt ya?" Steve asked hoping
to interupt their makeout session.
"That was months ago Steve now go away." Soda replied between kisses.
"Soda come on your breaks over you have to go back to work or the
Boss will have a cow." Steve said trying to drag Soda back up to the
front.
"Hey Rina I have to go back to work call me sometime." Soda quickly
jotted down his number and handed it to Sabrina who took it. Steve
pulled Soda back out in front of the DX and Soda was laughing at
something.
"Soda buddy have you had anything to drink you acting really weird?"
Steve asked confused he hadnt seen Soda like this in a while.
"Mabye a little but I couldnt of had that much so dont worry Steve."
Soda replied draping his arm over Steves shoulder.
"Soda you know your not allowed to drink at work and since when do
you drink anyway?" Steve asked.
"Since Sabrina came along she had some kind of drink in her bag and
we just had a couple dont worry Steve everything will be ok our boss
wont find out." Soda replied cooly as he went back to work.
"Whatever buddy just be careful." Steve said looking back under the
hood of the car he was working on.

Soda watched Steve for several seconds trying to comprehend what he
was doing. His reaction time and comprehension were slowed a bit
because of the booze, but he was managing just fine.
"Hey-hey!" Two-bit's voice echoed under the hood. Vanessa sighed,
she figured she wouldn't get any time with Steve if his friends kept
showing up. Steve popped up from in front of the car, "Hey Two-bit."
Soda responded the same, "Hey Two-bit."
"So here it is," Two-bit said nodding at Vanessa, "What kind of Bees
make milk?"
When no one responded Two-bit laughed at himself before he even
answered, "Boobies!"
Soda and Steve got a snicker out of it but Vanessa just rolled her
eyes not finding a bit of humor in Two-bits lame jokes. Just as she
hopped off the car getting ready to head into the store, two girls
came dashing around the corner. Everyone stared as the two females
ran smack dab into Vanessa throwing the bunch to the ground.
Two-bit, Steve and Soda were all at the three girls' sides almost
instantly. As Steve was helping Vanessa to her feet Two-bit
asked, "Hey Lauren, when did you get out?"
posted by: pepsicolasgurl
"I didnt get out Two-Bit." Lauren replied cooly
"OK so why are you here?" Two-Bit asked confused. Soda smacked him on
the back of the head.
"She broke out you goofball."
"Oh ok that makes sense." Two-Bit rubbed the back of his head when he
say someone coming out from behind the DX.
"Hey Rina what are you doing here?" Two-Bit asked walking over to her.
"Oh hey Two-Bit I should ask you the same thing." Sabrina replied
glancing over at Soda who looked confused.
"Wait how do you two know each other?"
"Shes my sister." Two-Bit replied and was intrupted by Lauren.
"OK can we have a big family reunion later I'm trying to run from the
cops and I need a place to hide quick."
posted by: pepsicolasgurl
"OK come on hide in here." Steve said pulling Lauren into the DX as
the cops came by.
"Hey kid have you seen a girl come running by here like shes in a
hurry?" The cop asked and Soda spun around.
"Yea there was a girl that just ran by a min. ago she went that way."
Soda pointed down an alley way close by.
The cop thanked him for his time and took off down the alley.
"Hes gone its safe now." Soda called inside and Lauren came back out
followed by Steve.
"Thanks you guys I owe you one." Lauren replied patting Soda and
Steve on the back.
"Any time, why did you break out anyway I thought you didnt have that
much more time left?" Steve asked
"I got sick of staying in jail all the time I wanted to come hunt for
some action why else? But I'll explain later. right now I need to go
find an old friend and talk to him." And with that Lauren looked
around for any sign of cops and took off.
"Ok that was weird." Two-Bit said scratching his head. "Oh yea Rina
you never told me what your doing here."
"Two-Bit dont you have somewhere to be some girl to go see or
something?" Soda asked covering up for Sabrina.
"Oh yea I was gonna go meet this girl again. OHH I'm already late I
gotta go bye guys."
"Thanks Soda I owe you one." Sabrina said kissing him on the cheek.
"I didnt know two-Bit was your brother." Soda replied looking down at
her.
"Yea he is but I had moved to live with my aunt and now I'm back. We
never talked much."

Jessica yawned and ran her fingers through the bars. She felt the cold glass from the window touch her pale milk-white skin. Lost in the haze of her insane mind, an idea came to her.
Go find Dallas.
She looked for something hard, resorting to the metal dinner tray from earlier. She slid it through the bars, after much consideration and frustration, and slammed it against the window. The glass shattered. But there was still the bars and the ten story high drop.
Dimly, she noticed the first day she had been put in this room that the bars were rusty and in disrepair. She began pulling at them, and with no luck, began to get angry. She slammed up against them, causing herself more damage than the bars. She decided to give it one last go, and the bars collapsed, falling ten stories to the ground, where they hit with a loud bang. Jessica smiled madly at herself, then turned to look at Rebecca, who was staring at her in a terrified way.
"Bye bye, Rebecca." Jessica laughed, jumping.
*****
"But you can't cancel!" The stage manager protested. Karen gave him a look.
"I can do whatever I want." She replied impatiently. "Something came up. I have to go find someone."
"Fine, but you owe me a free concert here."
"Fine then." Karen replied, picking up her jacket and her car keys. She jumped into the driver's seat of her Mustang convertable, and sped off. She had to find Two-bit.
*****
Jessica landed on something soft and rolled off. She stood up and looked around. Now she wished she had brought her blanket. She walked aimlessly for hours, and finally decided to get some sleep. She lay down on the soft ground of a football feild, and fell into a light sleep.
"Are you ok?" A voice asked her softly, shaking her.
She blinked. The guy's face looked firmiliar... something to do with a horse, maybe? She remembered him as being one of the people who took care of her after Dally had... never mind. She didn't want to think about that.
"C'mon." The guy said softly. "You can stay at my house tonight." She didn't comment, but followed him. He led her to a house, and held the door open.
"Ponyboy, what took you so long?" Another voice called. He sounded firmiliar, too. Then it snapped. It was Darry.... she remembered him very well. She had liked him a lot. He had taken good care of her after Dally... no. She didn't want to think of that, either.
"Look at... hey, wait a minute. I know you." Pony said, taking a closer look at Jessica. "Glory, it's Jessica Winston... Dally's little sister..."

Karen was driving along trying to figure out where Two-Bit might be
when a car came around the corrner and almost ran right into her.
they stopped and got out to make sure she was ok but when someone
tapped on her window she was suprised at who it was.
"Two-Bit what are you doing here?"
"Well look who I almost ran into? I was just comming to see you." Two-
Bit grinned one of his famous grins and offered to take her out for a
coke.

Karen didn't give Two-bit any time say another word, her lips
were instantly pressed to his and he was just enjoying the ride.
~*~*~*~
Vanessa leaned over the car, "Steve."
Sighing Steve pulled himself out from under the hood and
looked at her. She frowned and Steve instantly felt guilty, "Damn it
Nessie, I'm sorry. Work's really busy right now…the Carltons are
coming back for this car in an hour and I haven't even looked at the
fly wheel."
Vanessa nodded trying to follow what he was saying but didn't
have any idea what a fly wheel was or if it even had to do with the
car.
"I'm sorry I came and bothered you."
"Oh Nes," Steve reached out and took her hands. Vanessa
grasped his in response but upon feeling them she applied a disgusted
look and a laugh, for now her hands were also covered in black car
grease. Both exchanged laughs and squeezed each others hands harder;
at which point their lips met and Steve leaned his forehead on
hers, "These are the things I love about you."
"Love about her?" the couple heard, an irritated voice ask
followed by the tap-tap-tap of a high-heel shoed foot.
Both spun, and there stood Steve's current girlfriend that he
failed to mention to Vanessa…Evie.
posted by: PurpleSailorSaturn7
Vanessa's eyes narrowed. Just who was this chick? She shook back her cascade of curls and looked the girl over. Defenatly not a Soc.
"What is going on here, Steve?" The girl demanded.
Vanessa cleared her throat. "Come to think of it, Steve," She said, her eyes blazing. "I'd like to know that, too."
posted by: Punky Molly
Steve looked blankly between the two women in his life,
trying desperately to think of something.
Vanessa turned to grab her stuff and retreat like the lady
that she was, however she didn't have the chance as Evie pounced like
a cat on the high-class girl. And before Steve could even comprehend
what had happened Evie was whacking Vanessa with the heel of her shoe
and Vanessa had a lock of Evie's ratty bleached blonde hair on the
ground and was working on tearing out another section. Soda had to
come, at Steve's calling, and help pull the girls apart.
"Let me go Sodapop! Let me at the little b*&ch!" Evie
shouted still trying to get at Vanessa.
Vanessa simply jerked her arm free of Steve's grasp, she
looked up to him with powerful angry eyes, "That won't be necessary I
can take care of myself." Snatching up her pocketbook she glanced
back at Evie, "Don't be angry with me…be angry with him…I didn't even
know about you."
"Nessie wait," Steve said.
"Steve you don't want to talk to me now. I can only be
temperamental for so long."
"But," Steve started to follow her.
She stopped and turned on her heels, "Stephen Justin Randle!
I said let me be!" And with that she turned and stalked off, and
this time Steve let her go; at least for now.
~*~*~
"Lauren, where are we going?" Lindsay asked as they headed
down the street.
"I'm not really sure yet, somewhere safe." Lauren confirmed
hoping she could convince, not only herself but Lindsay too.
"You told those guys we were going to meet someone."
"I'm sure we'll meet someone. Come on let's hitchhike our
way out of this town."
"You're on," Lindsay said.
~*~*~
"Pony go change the sheets on your bed," Darry
ordered, "Jessica can stay with us until we figure out what's going
on. I have to run up the store."
Pony simply nodded and began to lope off to the bedroom.
"Stay here for a little while, at least while I run up to the
store?" Darry turned to the little girl.
She simply nodded, without a word.
On his way to the store Darry was somewhat surprised to see
two girls ahead, one a lovely brunette and the other a cute blonde.
Slowly he pulled his truck up to the side of the road. "Did you
ladies need some help?"
As Lauren turned to see Darry her heart sank, she could
identify him anywhere. He had been the last thing she remembered
before being thrown in the slammer.

Jessica found a blanket on the couch and wrapped herself up in it. They were after her. And she wouldn't let them get her- whoever they were.
She closed her eyes and drew in a shaky breath. The evil spirits would not get her.... ever. If Dally had been here, he would protect her....
"He's not here, idiot." A voice in her head, one she had gotten quite used to, said. "Give it up."
"NO!!!!!!" She screamed, not quite aware she had done it aloud.
posted by: Punky Molly
Pony dashed into the living room where Jessica was laying. "Are you
okay?"
All he recieved in response was a blank stare followed by several
blinks.
"Jessica?" Pony asked. She simply stared. Pony shook his
head, "Okay, I'm gonna go back and finish cleaning up my room. Darry
should be back any minute. If you need anything I'll just be in
there."
~*~*~
"Karen, what are you doing back here? I never thought you'd come,"
Two-bit said rubbing the back of his neck.
"For you, I'd do anything." Karen kissed him again.
posted by: PurpleSailorSaturn7
"So," Two-bit said, looking into Karen's eyes. "What's it like being a big famous rock star?"
"Hmmm....." Karen sighed. How could she explain it? "It's nice." She finished lamely.
****
Jessica turned to watch him retreat with her cool blue eyes. "You're just like the rest of them." She said in a chilling tone.
"What?" Pony asked, turning to look at Jessica, who was curled in a tight ball on the couch.
"You're just like the rest of them." She repeated, staring at him. "You. Are. Just like. The rest of them." She began to laugh crazily, and Pony gave her an odd look.
"What are you talking about?" Pony asked, watching her.
"I'll never tell..." She singsonged. "I'll never tell." And she went silent again. No matter how much he tried, Pony couldn't get another word out of her.
