Jughead

Jughead rose to consciousness and everything hurt. It hurt to roll his eyes behind his eyelids. It hurt to breath in deeply. He doesn't remember falling asleep which may be a good thing. The last thing he really remembered was seeing Penny. If they hadn't drugged him he may have had nightmares about it. Jughead attempted to open his eyes but they were so heavy. Plus any time he moved his body shouted with pain. He vaguely heard a door open somewhere but it was mumbled. He tries again to open his eyes and succeeds in cracking them. The first thing he notices is the damn gag is still on his face. The second thing is the fact that he is on the bed. Jughead looks down and sees his wrists and ankles restrained to the bed. With what appeared to be hospital issue patient restraints. After taking note of it he looks up at the door. There standing just inside the doorway was Kurtz smiling. It was an ugly smile that made Jughead feel worse than he already did.

"Man Jug you slept for quite awhile. I don't blame you though. You did a lot of screaming. Penny tore you up pretty good. Took the men a few hours to stitch you up."

Stitch him up? How did he not remember what happened to him. Kurtz walks farther into the room approaching Jughead. "Well we have plans to catch up on and I am done being patient." Kurtz says before reaching down and unbuckling the gag. Without a word Kurtz reaches in his pocket and grabs something out. Jughead sees a bag of fizzle rocks and his mind starts racing. Adrenaline starts flowing through him and he begins to fight with everything he has.

"Oh don't worry Juggy we got this batch right. All this will do is make you feel real nice and well a couple of other things. Ill let you figure those out." Kurtz reaches out and grabs Jughead by the jaw. Jughead fights to keep his mouth shut but with the lack of food and his injuries he really was just running on adrenaline. Kurtz finally forces his mouth open. In one precise movement he opens the bag of fizzle rocks and dumps it into Jugheads mouth. He then forces Jugheads mouth closed and rebuckles the gag. He then pinches Jugheads nose effectively cutting off his air supply. Jughead trys to hold out as long as he can. When his vision blurrs to black at the ages he swallows the mouthful of poison. That gains him another wicked grin from Kurtz.

"Now then lets get you ready for our little video call shall we?"
