The Outsiders: chapters 9 & 10
Fear
I think chapters 9 and 10 were best explained by the word fear. In chapter 9 there seemed to be some fear even though it wasn’t really expressed much. when the rumble was about to begin, i believe the socs and the greasers had fear inside of them. the socs showed fear when they ran away from the rumble since they were getting pounded; especially when one of the greasers took out a busted bottle pop. I also think that darry had fear that ponyboy would get hurt during the rumble because he didn’t have the same strenght after he came back from the church in Windrixville because he looked all skinny and not in a good condition to fight. fear was also showed by the whole gang when they knew that johnny was dying and were afraid that he won’t make it and die. Also, I believe the greaser gang had fear when dally got killed by the cops when he was buffling to shoot them. So this is why i chose the word fear.
Hey Francise
Nice post man. almost everyone chose fear so did i. I also thought that there was fear because Johnny was sick and almost gonna die. Well soME of your reasons for fear I also put in my post like becasue of dally getting shot and becasue of the rumble. Well good job again.

I do agree with you about chosing the word fear to describe these two chapters : P i think i also chose that word. Hey since we already finished the book i gotta ask you if you liked the ending. I didnt really expect the book to end like it did but it was an okay ending. well write back with your answer?:{)
