When Dally gave Ponyboy and Johnny a gun and some money he was helping them even though he could be arrested for assisting in a murder. Continuing on, even though it was extremely dangerous, Dally risked getting seriously injured or even killed to dart into the burning church to save Johnny.

Most of the time sacrifices are driven by some type of love, strength or necessity. It is done by giving up something good for the better, whether for yourself or, another person. In the real world, the idea of selfless sacrifice is shown through the soldiers that fight for their country. Not only does this idea appear in the real world, but also the literary world where one character’s act of courage to make a sacrifice becomes an important variable in the novel. One such novel is Veronica Roth’s Allegiant.
Finally, before Dally dies Pony and him are friends. Pony realizes all the things Dally sacrifices for his friends.

He seems to have no emotions, and as it said on page , Dally can take any amount of punishment. “ Dally had spent three years on the wild side of New York and had been arrested at the age of ten. He was tougher than the rest of us……..” (Hinton, 10) . “He had quite a reputation.
