Everyone Pov:

Adrenaline surged through their veins and you could hear the ruckus coming from Curtis's five

blocks away. The gang was pumped, wrestling and letting out whoops of joy. Sodapop's energy

was barely contained as he bounced around the house and started up an arm wrestling match

with Steve. He lost after getting distracted from a voice suspiciously annoying as Two-Bit

hollering Sandy. Steve secretly tossed the older greaser two cigs from his winning share. Not

long after, Darry emerged from his bedroom, his hair was lightly greased, which was quite rare

for him to do. He also wore a tight back shirt showing off all six of his abs. Two-Bit let out a low

whistle, but stopped when Darry gave him a glare. It seemed as if Darry was 10 years younger,

finally acting like his age again. Dallas had a smirk on his face as he opened up his leather

jacket to reveal his newly stolen bottles of jack daniels and tequila.

"Ya up to sharing buddy?" Two-Bit asked, and in return received the middle finger.

"Come on, don't be an ass right before the rumble." He continued to plead and Dallas tossed

him a daniel. Before Two-Bit could even beg for the tequila, he cracked the bottle with his ring

and downed it in one shot.

"Jackass." Two-Bit muttered and took out a gigantic tin from his own jacket. Everybody watched

curiously as Two-Bit cracked two beers and the jack daniel. He dumped it all in the tin and gave

it a good swirl. Noticing the disgusted looks (except for Dally who seemed impressed), he took a

good long swig at it.

"Jesus, are you aiming to have a heart attack before the rumble?" Steve remarked, in response

Two-Bit grabbed him in a headlock. Soda cheered them on as another wrestling match began

and Darry shaked his head in amusement. Soon enough, the wrestling duo accidentally bumped

into Johnny and sucked him into the fight. Somehow Dallas and Soda joined in and everybody

was just in a tangled mess by the end of it. After they knocked over the lamp, Darry separated

them and told them to calm down.

"Don't go spendin' all your energy before the rumble even starts." Darry lectured and the gang

stayed mostly calm for the next ten minutes before departure. Right before they left, Pony came

out of his room to get a glass of water. He was feeling a lot better, and his headache went away

the night before. However, the whole gang was against him coming to the rumble.

"We'll be right back Pony, do the dishes if you're feeling up to it!" With that, the gang filed out of

the house, each of them showing off their acrobatic skills.
