Disclaimer: sorry it took so long to write this chapter at first I liked it but then I switched it up so much it was completely different from what I originally wrote. Thank you for your reviews I appreciate it a lot. Ok so back to the story. Alex is with the boys and falling head over heels in love with Darry and he with her. Now I know that everyone (including my awesome reader's) is dying to know what happened to Alex and why she's come back to Tulsa. Well here's part one of the chapter that will explain things. First Alex is going to have to run into some people that want her dead. Unfortunately that would be her old gang. Just for the record I made this names up as I went along they have no connection to the book whatsoever except for a first or last name.
Lost Faces
Alex's POV
As I walked down the street, I started thinking about everything that had happened to me in the past year. Somehow I knew I owed it to the whole gang to tell them everything, the drugs, my parents, and even my brother. I just didn't know to tell them. I really wanted to and telling them would help clear my head and help with figuring out where I needed to stay and where to go. I had to tell someone or my brain would burst.
Then out of know where I smacked into a wall. Well that brought me back to reality. I thought. I checked my surroundings and found I was in an alley, But not a regular old alley, some greaser territory that I
shouldn't be in. then I noticed the signs and black stains on the walls from previous fights and merciless jumps on incent Soc's and Greasers. This was His territory. And I was never to come back or risk facing the gang, My Old gang.
"Well boys look who came back and showed her face once again. It's the bitch we've been waiting for." Came an unwanted voice that I never wanted to here again. I put on my death glare and turned to face death right in the face.
Darry's POV
I knew something was wrong, again, but I didn't know what. Alex said she was just going for a walk and would be back before dark. The sun was already starting to sink. Even though there was still daylight left I was worried. The whole gang was in the living room like usual and oblivious to everything, except Ponyboy. He had been acting strange and tense for an hour. I finally came to a conclusion; we had to go look for Alex.
Then soda walked in to the kitchen and we stood face to face with each other.
"Ponyboy thinks we should go look for Alex." He said locking eyes with me. I walked past him into the living room.
I was silent when I faced everyone. Everything was still until I spoke.
"We need to find her, she's I trouble" I said "Ponyboy I think you should stay here in case she comes back. The rest of us need to spread out and look for her." At this even Dally wasn't saying anything so they knew I was serious about this.
"Alright soda, you and Steve look downtown. Dally and I will look in the Alleys. Johnny can you and two-bit look by the outskirts of town and by the Movie House?" I got nods from everyone and it was still quiet. "Alright let's go" everyone left in pairs. I went up to Ponyboy and looked at him sitting on the couch. "Ponyboy" I started but I couldn't finish my sentence. I just leaned down and gave him a quick hug and bolted out the door to Dally.
Alex's POV
"Hello Will I'd say it was great to see you, but it's not because you're still an asshole and I'm still standing here not dead after all of the threats you gave me before I left. Still missing some teeth I see. How's your jaw seeing as I broke it before I left" I said with a smile. And once again for my back talk and smartass comments, I got beat. This time it was worse.
Will came up to me and slammed my head into the wall so hard I seen stars. I knew tomorrow I'd have gashes on the side of my face from him repeating my head getting smashed up against an alley wall, if there was a tomorrow. Damn how am I gonna get myself out of this one. Darry I need you help this time. I can't handle this one on my own. When I tried to back up two guys grabbed me and pinned both arms behind me making me wince in pain. Will was serious this time and if Darry didn't hurry I was toast. Even I wasn't pigheaded enough to believe I could survive much longer. Will and the gang were out for blood and I being a girl was one excuse.
Darry's POV
"Where do you think she is Darry" Dally asked me as we walked down the road. I kept staring straight ahead trying to ignore the gut feeling that told me she was I trouble and I needed to get to her fast. We finally hit the back alleys where Will Rogers' territory was. I knew something had to do with him. He hated Alex because of the disagreement and change of power. I knew if he got his hands on her she wasn't going to last long.
"Hey Dally, I think I know where she is and we have to get there fast."
Well now our knight in shining armor has to go save Alex. In the next chapter I'll explain a whole lot more than I did in this chapter. Please review. I'll get on the next chapter as soon as possible. Thanks for holding out and waiting for this chapter too. I know it took a long time but I'll finish soon. Once again please reviewi'm getting hits just no reviews! please please PLEASE review, it would help a lot and tell me what you want to hear.
