-------Interruption------------

Warning, nothing in the following chapter will make sense until you get close to the end. Isn't the feeling of falling in your sleep awful? I've fallen off my bed so many time's because of it. Anyway, tommorow will probably be the last day I can update, so enjoy while you can. This was a vacation breather and I'm going to go back to trying to type up my other story.

I do not own the Outsiders, poor tubas.

-----End Interruption--------

Homeless Tubas

This didn’t make sense.

Something was seriously wrong.

He couldn’t put his finger on it though. What was off? The fact Dally was grinning and skipping through a field of flowers? Na, that’s not it. Soda was teaching Darry math in a clown suit and Two-Bit wasn’t too be seen. Probably off doing his job of singing for homeless tubas. How long had Two-Bit had a job?

Ponyboy wandered through the field of flowers in his boxers, looking around with sleepy eyes. How did he get here from Tulsa anyways? Oh well, he would worry about that later. Instead he chose to pick a Steve flower, which punched him in the face before running off.

He held the nose which was bleeding chocolate milk and snapped it back in place. The field had disappeared and he was standing next to a large canyon. Everyone had disappeared except for Johnny, who was walking towards him holding the ten inch switchblade he kept in his back pocket. The switchblade suddenly turned into a large cat who was grinning evilly. Switchblade jumped out of Johnny’s arms and walked towards him, making his chest lock up like he couldn’t breathe.

Ponyboy struggled to breath and his hands scratched at his throat in desperation. He felt Switchblade push him over the side of the canyon and he fell. And fell. And fell.

Waking up in a cold sweat, Ponyboy struggled to breath and clawed at his face. A heavy, furry mass refused to move. He pulled off the large cat, who had fallen asleep on his face, and swallowed breath after breath of sweet, sweet air. Switchblade yawned and stared at him sleepily as he calmed down.

“Damn cat” Ponyboy cussed, sneezing cat hair out of his lungs and kicking Switchblade out of the bedroom before slamming the door shut.
