3rd person P.O.V
It was a depressing day in the Curtis house. The youngest of the gang, Ponyboy, was going to war today. Ponyboy's bags were at the door waiting to be put in the car while the whole gang was sitting in the kitchen scratch that Ponyboy, Sodapop, Two-bit, and Johnny were sitting at the kitchen table, darry was cooking break feast, and Dally and Steve were leaning against the wall. It was exactly 9:30 in the morning and Ponyboy only had a half an hour left to stay home. You see Pony had to be at headquarters at 10:00 because he had to sign in and get his uniform and see when he gets shipped off to start his training. Ponyboy finished his eggs and cake and looked at the clock. It read 9:50. "Guys! Its 9:50 we have to go." The gang looked at the clock and got up and walked out the door. Ponyboy picked up his bags and walked out but before doing that he took one last look at the house. He then realized he might not be coming back home, see the gang's faces again, or even eat chocolate cake for break feast again. Then Sodapop walked in, put his hand on Pony's shoulder and said "Come on Pone you don't want to be late." "Alright I'm coming." They both walked out of the house and went into the old ford filled with the gang.
A few minutes later the old ford pick-up truck drove onto a rocky drive way of a building with a sign saying: Tulsa war headquarters all drafted soldiers go into the back door to sign in!
Ponyboy was the first out of the truck and headed for the bed of the truck which had his bags. He picked up his bags and headed to the back door with the gang on his heels. He reached the back door and walked in with confidence on his face. He walked up to the desk and a tall women with make-up all over her face said, "Name please?" "Ponyboy Michael Curtis ma'am." She looked at her list until she found his name and highlighted it and said, "Ah here you are, here is your uniform and the bathroom is down the hall and the first door on the left, and say goodbye to your friends because you're getting shipped off in exactly 10 minutes." "Bye guys I'll see you soon." Soda walked up to his little brother and hugged him like he was his lifeline and said, "You write to us every day ya hear?" "Ya I hear ya and I promise I will write every day." The Two-bit walked up to the youngest gang member and said to him, "You write to us and come back alive ya dig?" "Ya I dig" then Dally and Johnny went up to Ponyboy and hugged him saying, "You come back to us kid, we'll miss you while you're gone." "I'll come home I promise guys." Steve went up to Ponyboy and said, "Bye kid, come back alive because I can't stand a broken Sodapop." Lastly Darry went up to Ponyboy hugged him tight while saying, "Please come home safe Pony Soda and I won't be able to handle it if something happens to you." "Don't worry Dar I'll use my head and will try to not get killed." Then Ponyboy grabbed his uniform, waved to the gang and got dressed into his uniform.
A/N: hey guys excuse me for my capitalization errors on my last chapter, but I think I covered all my errors on this chapter. I hope I wrote this chapter longer if not the next chapter will. If you want to know how old ponyboy is. He is 17 years old. Please no flames on this story. I'm only 13 and yes I do have some grammar errors so if you could atleast kindly tell me them without being mean, other than that be a nice day and please R&R this story and my other one: As I Lay Dying thanks!
