Tonight is the rumble against the Socs
and Darry told me he doesn’t think I should be in it knowing that I’m not feeling
so hot. I’m going to be in it anyway cause then the rest of the gang is gonna
think I’m chicken. I took a bunch of aspirins while Dally and Soda wasn’t looking
cause I figured it would help till the end of the rumble. Dally is gonna be in
the rumble too, despite him still being in the hospital. Dally asked for
Two-bit’s pocketknife and he really gave it to him, I guess Dally really needed
it cause he knows how much Two-Bits knife means to him for him to just ask for
it. When everyone had arrived; us the Brumly Boys, Shepard’s Gang and the Socs, Darry
went first, he fought a blond guy named Paul Holden. I knew Darry had to be
ashamed to be representing us I just knew he had to be a little jealous. It was
hard for me cause I was the youngest person there and I couldn’t find any Socs
my size. I helped Dally out cause he was slugged by some Socs so I jumped on their
back and guess what? The Socs ran away first and we won. We won the rumble.
My name is Ponyboy Curtis I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma I have light brownish-red hair and greenish-gray eyes. I’m 14 years-old and the youngest in my gang.We are in a gang called the Greasers which classes us all as boys on the East Side. We are almost like hoods. Us “Greasers” wear blue jeans, T-shirts, leather jackets, and tennis shoes or boots with our hair long. But that’s just the way things are, we have one thing the Socs don’t and that's each other.
