If Johnny had not died in "The Outsiders," he would have likely faced a challenging future due to his troubled past and the ongoing gang violence in his community. He may have struggled with the emotional and physical trauma he experienced, as well as the legal consequences of his actions. Without the support of his friends, particularly Ponyboy, Johnny may have found it difficult to break free from the cycle of violence and poverty that surrounded him.
In Chapter 2 of "The Outsiders," foreshadowing hints at Johnny's potential for violence through his traumatic experiences and the way he reacts to conflict. After being attacked by the Socs, Johnny becomes increasingly fearful and feels cornered, which suggests that he might resort to extreme measures to protect himself. Additionally, his possession of a knife serves as a subtle indication that he may be driven to violence if faced with a dire situation. This builds tension and sets the stage for future events in the story.
