Ponyboy carried on towards his home, carrying the chicken leg with ease. His steps were quick hefty, broad paws carrying him with grace. It was a mess back there. Nothin' but fightin'. He didn't like it. Again, the only good reason for fighting is self defense.
Johnny caught up after him, kicking in great speed.
"Pony!"
He coughed.
"Wait up Ponyboy."
He slowed and Johnny caught up simply and truely.
"Eh Johnny...back so soon?"
"Can't stand them house pets. Them Socs. Spoiled up top over self esteem SOCS!"
Johnny snarled and threw, tossed, his head in the air, greasy hair flying. Ponyboy was taken aback in surprize, and then they started running. They ran and ran and ran, not stopping under the both of them had hard cramps in their sides and no air to breathe, which takes awhile for a sled dog.
"Easy...Don't wanna end up in the cooler."
Pony hit the ground and looked up at the stars above, letting his breath float away.
"I'm hacked off around that house! I need a weed."
Johnny hit the ground beside him, a little more gently.
"Don't wanna be jumped...Fuzz don't drop by round here much."
Pony moaned. Then Johnny spoke, and with such inspiring inthusiasm, that they believed it could happen.
"Someday Pony, someday, we're gonna leave here. We're gonna go to the country. No Socs, no Greasers, No Fuzz, no rumbles, scrappin' no nothin."

Brittany trotted in, Jon had brought her to town and let her roam the square as she liked, he trusted her. She of course would be back but now she was wanting to see where Johnny had run off to. "'Ello mates." She said with a smile, her accent ringing through the crisp air. She stood at their heads looking down as they looked up. She had heard Johnny's words but gave no mention of having heard them. "Someday Pony, someday, we're gonna leave here. We're gonna go to the country. No Socs, no Greasers, No Fuzz, no rumbles, scrappin' no nothin." She thought them over. Greasers She knew that word, she had heard it before. The memories flooded back as she remembered her puppyhood. She remembered hearing the words, not saying she was ever called one but the friends she had been around, they had said that many times over. |

Ponyboy looked up and so did Johnny, who looked away again with a sigh. Neither could decide if they were happy to see her or wished her to buzz off.
"Aint you on the wrong side of town? South side, North side."
He growled slightly and Johnny kicked up, sitting up slightly.
"He means you've wandered a little farther than most pets would dare."

Brittany rolled her eyes slightly. "I ain't come here by no accident. I'm perfectly aware of where I stand." She said with a sharp ring, just stating her point, not mean sharp, though it could be interpreted as such. She sat down where she stood and watched them, "Johnny, why'd yeh wander off like 'at?" She wondered in a simple tone tilting her head to the side slightly. |

Ponyboy felt uncomfortable with the priviledged even bothering to come near this area. She could be at the flippin movies or something. Johnny raised a brow at her question.
"Why not? This is my home...really it is."
He shrugged and yawned.
"Why do you care?"
Pony sassed slightly. He usually wasn't like that, so Johnny glared at him again.

Brittany shrugged all cool like even though she was a bit embarrased by her own thoughts. "Well fer one you're part of our team now. You shouldn't just leave like that." She offered the answer knowing, or assuming his reaction and sighing. She watched Pony for a moment curiously and then her gaze turned back to Johnny waiting the expecting retort back at her. |

"I'm on your team but I don't live there. This is my home. The lot, Pony's house...Anywhere but my own place."
He explained all to simply. He then stood up, and Pony did too.
"Hey I'm gonna be late...Soda's expecting me....and just imagine what Darry'll say."
Pony grinned sheepishly and then headed off. Johnny felt uncomfortable now. He was usually with one of the gang and he wasn't in the safe lot.
"Look Brit, go home where you're safe. I have to go."
He looked around deciding what would be the safest route to the lot to sleep for the night.

Brittany snarled at his remark, a light one but angry. "I can handle me-self just fine." She snapped back at Johnny and then sighed shaking her head. "You wouldn't understnad." She muttered, audible to Johnny she was sure but she didn't figure he'd be able to understand what she had said. She sighed again and turned away glancing back once at Johnny but no more, walking slowly to the edge of the area. |

Johnny turned with a glare.
"You don't know what you're dealing with Soc. This is our gang's territory. Any further and you'll be dealin' with Tim Shepherd and Curly."
He shook his head and wrinkled his nose, heading on out of site. How disturbing.

Brittany's ears pinned back. Soc. She had heard that too, and not in a nice way either. She snarled but was obviously hurt as she made her way back to Jon's office that wasn't all to far away, not if she ran. She picked up speed on her way back and with her eyes squinted in the cold breeze no one would be able to tell the few tears as the memories flooded her once more.
TO: Well she'll be back somewhere with Stacey and Jon at MTK headquarters. xD |
