So after Johnny killed Bob, Ponyboy and Jonny hid in a church for five days or like a week, with only a book to read and some cards for entertainment. They also had found out that Cherry was their spy inside for the Socs.
Blah Blah Blah
Johnny thinks that he should turn himself in and tells them. This seemed to upset Dally and Ponyboy was kind of surprised, for greasers would get it hard.
What!?
Dally, Ponyboy, and Johnny all go back to the church to find it set on fire. Everything thing gets worse as they find out a group of kids from a group fieldtrip went inside the church and hadn't come out.
We started the fire!
They decide to go back into the church to save the kids for they believe/know they started the fire. They are the only ones who are brave enough to get in. Also the other dude was too "fat" to get in. So they picked up the kids to haul them out the window.
Ow don't bite me!
They end up saving all the kids and were heroes because of how brave they were, but in the process of saving them they got badly hurt especially Johnny for the church collapsed on him. Luckily he was saved by his role model Dally.
Nuuu Johnny!
In the end Dally, Ponyboy, and Johnny got taken to the hospital and Ponyboy tells that Jerry guy about the story leaving out some parts. He then had reunited with Soda pop and Darry. He had then realized that Darry truly does care for him and so that is why he is so strict and upset when he goes out on his own and stuff.
