On Friday afternoon in Windrixville, Oklahoma there was a fire at the church where two teenage boys had been staying. The church was located at the top of a hill. One of the teenage boys age 14 tells us "It was a small church, real old and spooky and spiderwebby. It gave me the creeps". 

As the two teenage boys drove past the church where they had been staying, they saw that it was on fire. The 14 year old boy thinks that him and his friend must have started the fire with a cancer stick so they jump out of the car to examine the fire. In the process of examining the fire the teenage boys find four school children in the corner of the church huddled and terrified. As the two juveniles lift the children out of the window and while getting the last child out of the window the roof caves in. The 16 year old teenager pushed his 14 year old friend out the window but, he is still inside and starts to scream. The 14 year old juvenile tried to go back in to save his friends but was hit across the back and was knocked out.

When the youngest juvenile wakes up he is in an ambulance. The juvenile is told that his life was saved by the jacket that his friend lent him. The 14 year old says that his friend was burned but “will probably be fine”. The kids are hoping for the best. The 16 year old Juvenile was in a very bad shape at this point and nobody knew if he would be ok. Sixteen year old juvenile was in critical care as he was hit by the roof on his back. The teacher that was in the ambulance jokingly asks the youngest juvenile if him and his partner are professional heroes but he replies with “we are juvenile delinquents, take me to the hospital and you will find out there".

           The oldest juvenile remained in the hospital under critical conditions. On the other hand, the school children and the parents were very thankful they were saved and prayed for the other that they would be healed. In the end, the community came to the realization that the greasers are not stereotypical hoods. They lived in a harsh and violent world but the teenage boys have courageous and loyalty values. The stereotypes that defined ‘greasers’ did not define them as individuals. Each greaser was different and are not all bad people. They faught to help others and are brave people. The greasers sacrificed their lives for the lives of others. The 16 year old has been pronounced dead and the 14 year old is partially healed.
