Dallas' POV:
I am sitting alone in the kitchen, hating myself. I'm sure that Rosanne is dead because of me. I seriously hate myself so much, I could kill myself.
I walk over to where my gun is and pick it up. I sit back down and see if my gun is loaded, and it is. I look around and I see no one. I decide to go to the kitchen and grab an envelope and I grab a blue pen. I look at the envelope and stare at it to think of something to write… for my suicide note.
I grab my blue pen and start to write. "I killed Rosanne. I drove Rosanne away and she ended up getting killed. I hate myself. I know all of you hate me as well, and none of y'all will miss me. I understand. I promise that I did nothing to Rosanne, she just stormed off. I wish I didn't check out Cherry, but I did, like an idiot. I hope someday that you all could forgive me. Good bye."
I put the envelope on the table and then I put the gun up to my head. I start to tear up, thinking that I killed sweet innocent Rosanne. It makes me so mad that she was so close to being mine. But honestly, Johnny is gonna treat Rosanne better than I ever could, you know, if she's alive.
Johnny's POV:
I reach the house, not finding Ponyboy anywhere. I mean he's probably just laying in bed thinking about Rose and his parents. I'm sure he'll pick himself back up soon, because he probably wants to find Rose as soon as possible, dead or alive at this point.
I open the gate and walk inside the house. I see Dallas through the window, and he has his arm up. It doesn't look good so I run inside the house. I smack the gun out of his hand.
"Dal?!" I say. "What in the world are you doing?"
"I was gonna kill myself man," Dallas says. "Rosanne is probably dead, all because of me. No one would miss me. In fact, everyone would be happy."
"That's not true Dal," I say. "I would miss you."
"No you wouldn't man," Dallas says.
"I would," I say.
I guess I do deep down care about that Dallas Winston. I may be mad at him, but I guess I do still care. I think the fact that we don't know if Rose is dead or alive makes me still care about Dallas, but if he did drive her away and she got killed, I would be completely done with him.
Dallas puts down his gun. He looks at me with his wide brown eyes. "Have you found any information about Rosanne man?"
"Yeah," I say. "Ponyboy and I went to the hiking trail that her and I went to the other day, we found her bracelet she wears everyday broken near tire tracks. I followed the tracks to find a cabin in the woods, with a Mustang. We also found a piece of paper signed by Bob and Randy- oh! Speaking of, it's in my pocket, I needed light to read it since it was dark and raining."
I pull out the paper that Ponyboy and I found at the lot. I opened the piece of paper and looked at it. It was divided into 4 sections, and each section had steps. The title broke my heart, it was titled 4 Possible Ways To Capture Rosanne, That Greaser.
"Four possible ways to capture Rosanne?" Dallas exclaimed. "So Bob and Randy must have her!"
"What kind of car does Bob drive, do you know?" I asked Dally.
"A blue Mustang," Dallas said. "What color was the Mustang in the woods?"
I had to think about it for a second. I thought it was red this whole time, but come to think of it, I'm pretty sure it was blue.
"I think it was blue," I say quietly. "Also, have you seen Ponyboy? I went to follow the tire tracks and when I came back, he was gone. Before I left he was just sitting on the bridge crying."
"No man, I haven't seen him since he left to be with you outside," Dallas said.
My eyes got big. Could Ponyboy have been captured too? Could he have went somewhere to relax then fell asleep?
I look at the clock and it was 2:25 in the morning. I wonder if the rest of the gang would be willing to wake up and find Rosanne with us. I'm pretty sure that cabin in the woods is gonna help us find Rosanne, and possibly now Ponyboy.
Just then, I see Darry walk in.
"What's up you two?" Darry asked.
"I think I might know where Rose is," I say. "Plus, Ponyboy might be missing too."
"What in the world Johnny?!" Darry exclaimed. Darry sat down on the chair near us. "Explain to me what is going on."
Darry's POV:
Johnny told me everything. It sounds like Rosanne was captured by the Socs, probably Bob and Randy. Ponyboy was possibly captured by the Socs too. I won't sleep or relax until I find my kid brother and sister.
"I'm gonna wake everybody up, and you're gonna take me to the cabin in the woods and we're gonna see if Rosanne and or Ponyboy are there," I say.
I get up and walk to a room with Sodapop and Steve sleeping in. "Hey you two, we're gonna find Rosanne and Ponyboy."
Sodapop sits up and stretches. "What about Rosanne and Pony?"
"Rosanne is missing and Ponyboy went missing tonight," I say. "Before Ponyboy went missing, him and Johnny found clues. Now all of you get up, we have to get going!"
"We'll be right out," Sodapop said.
I walk out of that room and I go to another room where Two-Bit is still awake. I tell him to get up and meet me in the living room.
Finally we are all in the living room.
"Why did we get woken up?" Steve asked me.
"I already told y'all," I said. "There is a chance of us finding Rosanne, and Ponyboy."
Sodapop looks down. "We better find Rosanne and Ponyboy. I need my younger kid brother and sister."
"Enough talkin', let's go!" I say.
I open the door and run out. I open the gate and go on the street and wait for everyone to come outside. I yell at them to come on.
Johnny comes up to me. "Do you want me to lead the way?"
"Yeah kiddo," I say.
Johnny then starts running to the lot. Everyone starts to follow. Whatever is in the way of finding Rosanne and Ponyboy, I'm ready.
