Sweet Pea and some of the other Serpents went out to trash the high school. Jug has just brought them back and now Pea is raging again because the Ghoulies took Toni and asked Jughead to hand over the Southside
"It's time we end the Ghoulies scourge and that traitor Penny Peabody once and for all, permanently" Pea says shouting
"Sweet Pea 2 hours ago your fight was with Reggie Mantle. Now you want us to go to war over territory we don't even control anymore. This is Hiram Lodges problem not ours" Jug says crossing his arms
"So your just going to hand over Sunnyside trailer park our home to Penny and the Ghoulies?" Toni says walking over to Jug
"Toni I don't want us to die. A rumble with the Ghoulies right now is a suicide run" Jug now yells
"It's better than a cowards death" Pea says
"Don't call me a coward"
"We have to defend ourselves" Pea walks over to Jughead. I sigh and rub my hands over my face
"That's enough" I hear FP yell as he walks towards us we all turn to look at him "I just got a call from the sheriff's office. Fangs uh. He didn't make it. He's gone"
"What?" I whisper "no this is some cruel prank. No he can't... he can't be dead" my eyes start to water
"YN" Toni starts to walk over to me
"No he's strong he isn't, he can't be, he, he's a fighter" Toni and Cheryl go to hug my but I push them off
"YN I'm so sorry"
"Sorry won't bring him back Jug. Sorry won't stop me from having to be a single parent. Oh god I'm 17 and now single parent. How am I going to.. of god" Sweet Pea walks over to me and places his hands on my shoulders
"You are my best friend YN, you, Fangs and Toni. You are not going to go through this alone I promise you"
"We will mourn him hell yeah we will but first we will hour him. Now from what I just heard we need to put it to a vote. All those against going to war with the Ghoulies?" no one puts their hands up "all those for giving them hell on the battle field tomorrow?" everyone raises their hands into a snake symbol except me and Jug. I just can't think right now.
That night I stay at Toni's trailer, Sweet Pea and Cheryl both decided to stay the night as well, I'm woken up from my sleep by Toni shaking me
"What's going on?"
"It's Jug"
"What's happened" I sit up from the couch, Pea is pacing back and forth "FP called. Something about Jug saying goodbye to Betty" Cheryl says
"I'm confused. He's leaving?"
"No more like he's handed himself over to the Ghoulies. We're meeting FP at the Wyrm let's go" Toni says pulling me up.
We run as fast as we can back to the Whyte Wyrm we see the other Serpents getting bags ready with weapons
"Toni where was Penny hiding out?"
"Sweetwater river" FP immediately leaves
"Damn it we gotta follow him"
"No your staying here"
"Pea I'm a Serpent I can't sit and do nothing"
"YN I gave a promise to myself and Fangs. I told him I'd look after you if something ever happened to him. I will never forgive myself if something happens to you or the baby"
"Nothing will. I got her ok. If things turn bad I'll run with her. I have my arrows" Cheryl says and Pea finally agrees with me going with them. We run to the garage where all the spare bikes are. I get on the back of Peas, Cheryl on the back of Toni's.
Once we arrive I see a fire burnt out
"FP. Jughead" I yell
"I'll go look around" Pea says
"I've called more Serpents as back up" Toni says. Toni, Cheryl and I hug to keep warm. After a few minutes Pea comes back and a truck pulls up behind us
"Where is he? Where's Jug?" Betty asks just as more Serpents arrive
"I'm sorry I dunno"
"Jughead, FP" I yell again
"Guys" Archie says as he points. I turn around and see FP carrying something
"No" I breath out. He moves into the light a little more then I see it is Jughead.
The next couple days were literally torture. After the fight we lost a lot of Serpents and the trailer park so Pea, Toni and I have been living at the Wyrm. Luckily Fangs is actually alive, but Jughead still hasn't woken up yet. Apparently it was Bettys dad who was the black hood. I walk out of the bathroom at the Wyrm shivering
"Hey come here your freezing" Pea says taking off his jacket and wrapping me up
"Thanks. Of course the bloody heater breaks when we need it most"
"Any news on Jughead yet?" Toni asks
"No nothing" I shake my head
"What about Fangs? When will he be able to come out?" Toni again asks
"In about 2 weeks. Will need some physical therapy. I just can't believe the sheriff told us he's died. Why?"
