Chapter ten (Pony)
"Come on Dally, let's get out of here," I said pulling him out of the Dingo before a fight could start.
"What was that girl doing there anyway? She was wearing a skirt and a blouse! She was a real Soc!"
"No she isn't, she has been forced to wear them by her Dad"
"Sure, that's what she says" I glared at Dally as he grinned. We walked into the house to find the whole gang there except for Soda and Steve, since they were working.
"Anything interesting happen today, Pony?"
"Well I found out that the coach is going to be sued for sexual harassment, I hope!"
"Why was he been sexually harassing you? Do you need counselling?" Two-Bit grinned as I threw a cushion at him; he could be such a smart-ass sometimes. I heard the door open again and Kayla appeared in the lounge,
"Knock knock" She said sitting next to me.
"Who's there?" Two-Bit joked.
"Two-Bit" Oh no.
"Two-Bit who?"
"Two-Bit shut the fuck up!" Kayla said jokingly. Two-Bit grinned and then turned to Johnny,
"Hey looks who's here" I saw Johnny and Kayla turn red. I think that Kayla secretly likes Johnny but she is scared that he will reject her. I stood up and sat down on the other side of Kayla so then Johnny and Kayla were sitting next to each other.
"He likes you" I whispered to Kayla. Kayla turned even more red and moved closer to Johnny.
"Oh get it over with you two!" Two-Bit exclaimed. Kayla then leaned over and quickly kissed Johnny. Johnny was so red that I was sure that you could fry an egg on it in two seconds. Two-Bit and Dally laughed at Johnny, so he hit them both.
"Pony! Oh hey guys, Pony there's a girl who wants to talk to you, she came to the DX and she is still there" Incara was my first thought. I jumped off the coach and ran out the door. I heard Kayla running after me.
"Pony, where are you going?"
"I need to go to the DX!" I shouted over my shoulder. I arrived at the DX in no time at all with Kayla, following. It was Incara.
"You" Kayla sneered. Incara seemed unmoved by Kayla's attitude.
"I need to talk to Pony alone"
"I won't leave-"
"Please, Kayla" I said to her. Her eyes were wide with shock and then she turned around angrily,
"Well you can become a Soc too, I am sure your brothers will be happy when I tell that you are helping a Soc!"
"They won't care, Kayla, they aren't as judgmental as you!" I replied, angrily. Kayla can be such a cow sometimes and it was one of those times now. Kayla glared at me and stormed off. I sighed then turned to Incara,
"What do you need?" I asked moving closer to her. She blushed slightly and looked away,
"I want to do the plan, now. I am too scared to go home, but when I do, Dad will hurt me for being so late. Please can we do it now?" I looked at her, smiled and then nodded.
"Come on, we have to get a couple more people" Incara nodded, reluctantly. We walked back to my house, silently. I could tell Incara was scared because it was emanating off her.
"Soda and Two-Bit, can you please come with us" I said as Incara looked around, nervously. Dally looked her up and down,
"You a Soc or not?" He asked, finally. Incara paused slightly and then shook her head.
"Do you talk much?" Again she shook her head.
"Why not?"
"I am scared that what I say will offend people and they may hurt me" She said quietly, looking at the ground. I led Soda and Two-Bit out of the house and explained to them, everything that was going to happen. By the end, Soda's and Two-Bit's eyes were wide with shock,
"So, your father gave you those?" Soda said reaching out to touch the bruises. Incara pulled away slightly and nodded as Soda pulled his hand back.
"It must have been awful. So maybe Soc's do have problems"
"Not many of them" Incara spoke up. "The ones that I knew had perfect lives. I hate them," Incara said bitterly as we walked to her house.
"Do you want to be seen on the West Side?" She asked suddenly as we entered Soc territory.
"Just as long as you are safe, we will risk it," I said, surprising myself with my sensitivity. This girl was some special girl and I am sure Soda will tell me as soon as we get home. We walked into the house and there her Dad was with a belt in his hand.
"What is your Dad doing with a belt?" Soda piped up.
"I was uh-cleaning it. I just finished" He looked very flustered.
"I hope you don't mind my friends staying here. They're the guys that Sam was talking about" Incara's Dad's jaw went white and then he grabbed her arm and pulled her into a room that was near-by. This was our chance,
"Come on guys" Two-Bit grabbed the camera from behind his back and then we quietly walked over to the room. We heard the first belt getting whipped on Incara's back. Soda winced and then Two-Bit swung open the door and took a picture of Incara on the ground with her father over her, his belt over his head. Stunned by the flash, Incara was able to escape from her father and we all ran out of the house and all the way back home.
"This should be enough evidence, Incara, do you want to take it to the court?" Incara nodded mutely.
"Can I have a look at the mark that the belt made?" Slowly Incara lifted up the back of her shirt and all along it there were deep angry red marks over her back. Two-Bit gasped loudly,
"Why didn't you report him sooner?"
"No one wanted to help me and I could not do it alone" Incara let her T-shirt drop back down and then she looked around,
"Where will I stay tonight? Dad will kill me, literally, if I go back home"
"Can she stay here, Darry?" I asked Darry who was listening to our conversation.
"Sure" He said plainly before picking up the newspaper and starting to read it. Incara smiled,
"Thank you, Pony, I have known you only a matter of days but you are the only person who has really cared about me" I could feel the heat rising in my face and Incara laughed. It was the first time I had ever heard her laugh, it was a nice laugh.
"Do you like Mickey Mouse, Incara?"
"I don't know, I wasn't allowed to watch television"
"Well come here, it is on in ten minutes!" Two-Bit dragged Incara to the couch and made her watch Mickey Mouse. I enjoyed watching her laugh and smile, it was as if a whole load was taken off her.
