Johnny's POV:

I take the gang to the hiking trail. Darry runs straight to where the tire tracks are.

"Follow these tracks back?" Darry asked me.

"Yeah but I think we should wait for the rest-," I started to say until Darry started running into the woods.

The rest of the gang catches up to me.

"Where's Darry?" Sodapop asked out of breath.

"He started to run in the woods," I say.

"And we're just standing out here while Darry needs our help?!" Dallas started to yell. "He's gonna need our help to save Rosanne and Ponyboy! Come on!"

Just then, Dallas starts running into the woods. We all follow Dallas as fast as we could. Of course I was all the way in the back because I'm a slow runner. I start to think about Ponyboy. Then I think about Rose. After I thought about her, I start to run faster, passing everybody up. I catch up to Darry with no problem.

"Dang kiddo, I'm used to you being a slow runner," Darry says to me as we keep running.

"It's for Ponyboy and Rose," I say.

I then start to run faster. I reach the cabin in the woods. I'm ready to find Rose and Ponyboy.

Dallas' POV:

The rest of the group and I finally reach up to Johnny and Darry. We see Darry and Johnny throwing things at the door and windows so we all can bust in there.

I go up to them and kick the door and it opens. The rest of the group runs to us. Everyone looks at each other and then everyone looks at Darry.

"You should go in there man," I say. "You're the strongest here, and it would be better for you to do it, your kid brother and sister are in there possibly, hopefully alive."

"Everyone stand back," Darry says. "If I need any of you, I'll call for y'all."

I watch Darry walk into the cabin slowly. I start to shake, because we all are gonna find out if Rosanne and Ponyboy are alive or not…

Darry's POV:

I am at the cabin, and I'm gonna step in first. I think it's smart for me to go in first. Plus if Rosanne and or Ponyboy are dead, I think I should save the traumatizing image from the group.

I step in the cabin and don't see anything because it is pitch black. I put my hand on the wall and feel for anything to turn on a light. Eventually I feel a switch and turn on the light. I saw a long, yet thin living room. Wooden floors and wooden walls. The fireplace was on. It looks like someone really takes care of this place, well except for the things that Johnny and I threw inside the house…

I look to the right and see double doors closed. I look to the left and see a hallway with nothing but a ton of rooms. It's gonna take me forever to look around this place.

I open the double doors and it's just a nice cozy kitchen. I look everywhere for any signs of Rosanne and Ponyboy. I checked the table, the cabinets, the pantry, even the fridge. Nothing.

I close the doors to the kitchen quietly in case someone is here. I didn't see any car outside the cabin, but there could easily be someone else here.

I go back into the living room. I look around for more clues again. I checked the coffee table, end tables, on top of the tv, on top of the fireplace, and again nothing. I look down the long hallway and take a deep breath. One of these rooms has to have my kid brother and sister.

I go down the hallway and start with the first door I see. It's a coat closet. I quickly look through it and I go on my knees and search the bottom of the closet, and I check to see if there are any secret rooms. Nothing.

Before I could go to look in another room, I heard footsteps. My heart starts to pound a little bit. Anything is possible right now. I slowly look over and I see a leather jacket. I then look up. It's Dallas.

"I'm gonna help you look for her," Dallas says.

"No you're not kiddo," I say. "You could have gotten Rosanne killed, and if she is dead, I'd rather you not see her dead."

"Man, I've seen more dead people more than an average person. I can take it," Dallas says. "Plus, if I see her, I need to tell her things."

"Just stay out of the way," I tell him.

I go to another room, which is a restroom. I check inside the shower to see if Rosanne or Ponyboy were there. Nothing.

"Darry, you should see this," I hear Dallas say in the other room.

I run out of the bedroom and go to where Dallas is. "What is is Dally?"

Dallas points down. I follow my eyes down and see a puddle of blood in the tan colored carpet.

"Someone was in here," I say as I keep looking at the blood. "Does it look fresh or no?"

Dallas keeps looking at it with no expression. "It's kinda recent."

I know what's on his mind. He's thinking that the blood is Ponyboy's, maybe Rosanne's. He's probably thinking it's Rosanne and he's bullying himself in his mind, fighting his demons.

I look at the closet. I run to it and open it quickly. I can't believe my eyes. I started tearing up. It's Ponyboy! I quickly go to him and try to see if there's a pulse. There is.

Ponyboy is covered in blood. His brown hair is all in his face covered with blood. His clothes are all torn and cut up. I see some stab wounds.

I take Ponyboy's hand and lift him up. He slowly tries to open his eyes.

"D-D...Darry," Ponyboy quietly mumbles.

"Yes Ponyboy, I am here," I say. I hug Ponyboy and start crying more.

"Ponyboy, where's Rosanne?" Dallas asked.

"W-W...who?" Ponyboy says quietly.

I let go of Ponyboy and wipe away my tears. Ponyboy starts to slowly fall. I quickly catch him.

"Stay with me Ponyboy!" I say.

"Where is Rosanne?!" Dallas says loudly.

I roll my eyes. "Anne! Do you know where Anne is?"

Ponyboy opens his eyes some more. "B… B… B…"

Ponyboy passes out.

I look at Ponyboy some more. I put my hand on his heart. It's quickly pumping.

"Okay Dal, I need you to listen up," I start to say. "Take Ponyboy outside. Have the gang try to keep him with us. You run to a phonebooth and try to get an ambulance for him, and possibly Rosanne. Got it?"

"I got it," Dallas says.

Dallas picks up Ponyboy and runs outside. I feel a little better knowing Ponyboy was found alive. Now my big concern is Roseanne. All I got from Ponyboy was B. Which doesn't really help me at all.

I leave the room I'm in and go across the hall to another bedroom. Did Ponyboy mean B as in bedroom?

I go into the room and look around. It's empty. I see no blood either. I open the closet doors and I see nothing and no one.

I leave that room and go to one more room. Nothing again. I go to another room and nothing again.

I go to a door I forgot to check. I open it and it's a basement. B as in basement I bet! I turn on the switch and run down the long staircase. I look around and then I saw a body laying there on its side covered in blood. I run to the body and I can't recognize it. I flip the body over. The body is cold, it almost feels like their dead. I look at the face my heart dropped. It's Rosanne.
