The Outsiders ch. 9 & 10

The word I chose for Chapters nine and ten was fear. Fear totally describes what and how the characters are feeling during the both chapters. The gang prepares for a fight with some of the other Socs in the neighborhood, and they’re all anxious and fearful that something terrible was about to happen. Since Johnny and Dally are in the hospital, they were beat up and they did not fight because they might get injured even more. Despite the Soc’s warnings, Dally still comes to the rumble and fights the Socs. After the rumble, the Greasers won and they went to the hospital to check on Johnny because they feared that he was dying. Johnny eventually dies and Dally gets killed too. Two members of the gang have been killed. Fear is the right word for these chapters.
