The Day of DreadSitting alone in the chairA robin flies in so bewareThe screech of car tires is heardTwo-Bit burts through the door, eyes blurred Pony and Soda are brought from their roomI hate to give them words of doomThe boys sit there, pale and eyes filled with dreadThe day was hated, my parents were dead

My name is Darrel Shayne Curtis, my friends call me Darry. I'm 20, I have icy blue eyes, and I'm the oldest of 3 boys. My parents passed away last year in a car crash, so I have to take care of my brothers Ponyboy and Soda. I'm like the parent, I work two jobs, pay the bills, buy supplies, etc. I graduated high school with a scholarship for football, I was going to go to college, but family is first.

BIOGRAPHY

Ponyboy, Soda and I are part of a gang. The gang is called the "Greasers".We're like family, we're all there for eachother. Two-Bit likes being a joker, and Steve just plays along, but sometimes he's strict and cold. Dally is the trouble maker, he's

always in a fight or in jail. Then there is Johnny. He's the lost puppy. He's been skitish since the Socs jumped him. The Socs are our enemies, they're from the other side of town. They're always trying to pick a fight, and we don't let them down.
