Betty woke up next morning. Done what she does every morning. She headed out to school at 7:30. She was there early, same time as yesterday. It was 7.50 when she arrived at the main entrance. She felt like she needed a cigarette before she went in. She pulled out her pack of cigarettes, took one out and lit it. A sigh of relief watched over her as she puffed away.
Jughead sent Sweat Pea to find Betty. He didn't know what he wanted her for, just to see her.
Betty was looking around when Sweat Pea came around the corner. "Betty, boss wants to see you" Swear Pea said. "The king wants me summoned once again, tell him, He wants me, he comes to me" Betty said. "I wouldn't do that-" he began but was interrupted. "Let him do his worst Sweats. Bye now" she said. Then she dropped the cigarette down and stomped on it. She walked away.
Sweat Pea couldn't comprehend this girl, no, she was mysterious. She was so perfect and kind. Now she's troubled and mean. Obviously she has gad such rough times, that's what impacted it.
Betty walked into school. Sweat Pea went back to Jughead to tell him what Betty said."boss, you want her, you go to her, her words not mine" Sweat Pea said as he took a seat. Jughead sighed. "Okay. Thanks Sweats" Jughead said. Toni walked past them and didn't even say hello. "Jug, you should really talk to her" Sweat Pea said. "I'm on it" Jughead said as he hopped up and followed Toni.
"Toni! Toni wait up" he shouted down the hall. "What do you want Jones" said Toni while she opened her locker. "Just making sure your okay" he said. "Sure yeah I'm fine" Toni said as she slammed her locker shut. "Don't flatter yourself Jones, I move on quickly" Toni said and walked off. "At least the feeling is mutual" Jughead mumbled under his breath.
Betty gets her books before class starts. Jughead spots her at her locker. He runs over. "Betty, there you are, I've been looking for you" Jughead said. "Oh why?" She said sarcastically as she closed her locker. The bell for class rang. "If its to tell me that you and Toni ended, I know, she came by the garage yesterday, now excuse me I'm later for English" Betty said and started to walk away, but then Jughead grabbed her. "It's not about Toni, it's about Hiram Lodge. I know you and Veroinca used to be friends-" he began. Betty interrupted him. "Used. Being the key word. She stopped by my trailer yesterday asking for favours. I don't know what Hiram is doing, and I don't really care because it has nothing to do with me right now. Bye Jughead" Betty said then walked off.
Betty had changed. If she was as she used to be she would never stop questioning Hiram Lodge's plans for the Southside. He's been buying properties, like the twilight drive in, sunny side trailer park and club 8, which is the Gholies hang out. Betty's detective and journalist inside her is lost.
Betty had been sitting by herself at lunch times, or going outside and smoking. The Gholies has been eyeing her up recently Jughead noticed. She is like fresh meat to them, and they are like lions, waiting the right time to snatch up and gobble their prey.
Betty was dying for a smoke at lunchtime so she went outside. She leaned against the wall beside the door and lit her cigarette. Tiny, a Gholie decided to try and make a move on Betty. He seen her, alone and looking vunrable, and walked over to her. "You must be Betty, Jughead's ex" he said. "And you are?" She asked. "Tiny" He said. "Hhm, your quite tall to be called Tiny I'm guessing that name has to do with something else" she said. He just laughed. "Do you know what I am?" He said threateningly. "No, I don't really care either. Now let me get back to smoking in peace, and you can go back to whatever you were doing" Betty said and turned her cheek. "Betty, I would really hate to go tell the Gholie leader that Jughead Jones' ex, who he still had feelings for, transferred to Southside High and has been being a little bitch to me" Tiny said. "If you would hate to, then don't" she said.
Jughead seen the conversation. "Tiny leave her" Jughead said. "Oh Jones, you should put a leash on this bitch. And something to shut that mouth if hers. She'll get into bother" Tiny said. "I ain't his bitch and I'll speak what I want to who I want Tiny tots" Betty said as she dropped her cigarette and stomped on it. "Bye boys" she shouts as she walks away. Jughead just walks away from Tiny too.
Betty leaves school early, knowing Jughead would try find her. She does her homework from the classes she went to today tgem watches Tv. At 5 she went to the garage for work. Toni's bike is ready so she calls her. Betty dials the number she left in the book. It rings twice tgem Toni picks up. "Hello?" Says Toni. "Hey Toni, this is Betty, your bike is ready. You can pick it up whenever" Betty says. "Okay thanks. See you soon" and Toni hangs up.
Betty gets working on a car that was left in for repair last week. It starts to heat up in the garage so she turns off the heat and buttons down the top half of her overalls and ties the arms around her waist. She had a black vest tol in underneath. She was under a car when she heard some one come in.
"Hello?" The voice said. Betty didn't recognise it. She slid out from under the car and there was a tall skinny man standing there. He had curly black hair with a few strands over his face. He was wearing a leather jacket with silver spikes on it, Betty seen them in school. He was a Gholie.
"How can I help you?" Betty asked. "I'm Malachai. The leader of the Gholies" the man said. Betty froze for a second. 'Was He here for her?' She couldn't help but think. "Now my nephew, Tiny, said you weren't very kind to him" Malachai said. As he leaned down. "Now it's time to face the consequences" he hissed in her ear.
Malachai grabbed a wrench and hit her in the stomach. Betty screamed in pain. Betty tried to hit him back but he grabbed her wrist. He hit her accross the head and Betty was out cold. Then he just walked off.
Toni made her way to the garage a hour after Betty called. Sweat Pea gave her a ride over since she had no bike. Malachai had left by the time the made it. Toni hoped off Sweat Pea's bike and knocked on the door. "Betty! I'm here it's Toni!" She said. Toni just opened the door and made her way in. She seen Betty lying on the ground unconscious. "Oh my god! Sweat Pea get in here!" Toni shouted and Sweat Pea ran in.
"Toni what is it- what the hell happened?" He shouted. "I don't know she was like this when I cane in. Check the cupboards for a first aid kit." Toni said. Sweat Pea started searching cupboards. "Betty, Betty wake up" Toni said to her. "Is she still alive?" Sweat Pea asked. "Yes she has a pulse" Toni said. Betty grunted. "Oh Betty thank god your okay" Toni said. "Who did this?" Sweat Pea asked as he sat down with the first aid kit and gave it to Toni. "That bastard Malachai" Betty said and then sat up. Toni started plastering up the wounds on her forehead and cheek. "There's another here" Betty said tgem lifted up her top. There was a big gash and bruises on her stomach. "Why did he?" Toni asked. "His annoying little nephew talked to me, and I talked back" Betty said. "Guessing you weren't kind" Toni assumed. "Yep, and then Malachai cane and said I had to 'suffer the consequences' then grabbed a wrench and started hitting me. "Boss is going to be fuming" Sweat Pea said. "Why would we tell Jughead?" Betty asked. "He'll asked what happened to your face" Toni said. Betty just sighed.
"Oh. Your bike is ready Toni" Betty said. "Thanks" Toni said. "Also thanks for helping me, I don't know what would of happened if you didn't come when you did" Betty said. "We're not always bad Cooper" Sweat Pea said. "Bye" Betty said. Toni took her bike and they drive off. Betty checked the time. It was 9pm already. She closed up and went home.
