Hey guys sorry for being late, very late, but I've been really busy with work and stuff like that and I thought I make you up with it with this chapter, I decided to introduce the characters in a certain way and what better off to introduce them properly than a party, there won't be any supernatural stuff yet but next chapter I promise you there will be.
Also, here's another thing I hate about Riverdale they ruined Heathers, freaking Heathers, Heathers is one of my favourite movies of all time (I prefer the movie over the musical) and it only feels like they added it in because it was popular at the time, which sucks because the movie was inspired by the Archie comics as well, hence the whole Betty and Veronica characters, also Veronica that movie is definitely my favourite version of Veronica in the whole Archie comic series so Veronica here would also be like that from that movie.
WARNING this will have homophobic words in it, it's only there mainly to show off 1 hateable character, you can probably guess which one OK now on the chapter.
The lodge family are waiting at their mansion on the hill for the guest to arrive, Veronica parents Hiram and Hermione were chatting with her.
"do you remember when you used to your father daddykins" said Hermione
"oh god don't remine me, I used to call archie that too, everyone made fun of because of that, it was stupid" said Veronica
"speaking of Archie here comes the Andrews right now" Hiram said as he pointed at the road leading up to main gate as the Andrews car rolls up the hill followed by the Coopers
"I'll admit I didn't like the boy at first but he's grown on me and he's a good person" Said Hiram "are you and Betty still fighting over him."
"no, we all agree were goanna be just friends till the end"
"oh, look here comes Mrs Jones and her kids" said Hermione as she pointed to next car coming through
"she didn't actually give her children those names did she, or was it her ex-husband" said Hiram
Veronica shocked her head "no dad their real names are Forsythe and Forsythia we call them Jughead and jellybean because it easier to pronouns"
The next car to come up was a van driven by Moose Mason
"oh, right I forgot, Moose is driving some of the others in today since their parents can't come" said Veronica
"who's with him" said Hermione
"Midge, Dilton, Ethel and Chuck"
''well isn't that nice of him" said Hermione, Moose was big and tough but always have a big heart to others, but soon something hit Hermione, "wait what about Nancy, Chuck's Girlfriend"
"Chuck and Nancy broke up" Veronica said "didn't you know"
"oh, no I didn't" Hermione responded "what a shame, I'd thought they were a good couple"
The Keller family was next, Kevin was in the back with the rest of his siblings
"I remember you had a crush on him too" Hiram joked
"yeah I know, I was so embarrassed when I told him I liked him and then he said he was gay" Veronica said
"yes, but at least you have a friend for life and that's much more important" Hermione added
"true"
"oh bother, here comes the Blossom's" said Hiram as he could see their car role up the hill "I was hoping they won't come"
Hiram and Clifford Blossom (the head of the family) were rivals from different companies, Hiram might be harsh but Clifford come's from a different kind of hash put together, his wife Penelope was more of a Stepford wife then an real person, she doesn't act like that all the time but she gives off this vibe that she not in control, their kids have the same problem, their daughter Cheryl have to be first in everything and their son Jason thinks he's better then everyone, but their was some good in them Jason is one of the best football players and sticks up for follow football players, and Cheryl was the best cheerleader and archer for the archery team.
"now Hiram we are trying to be nice and to be the better person" Hermione remined him "if Veronica can get along with them so can you"
"I never said that, I said I sometime get along with Cheryl and Jason" said Veronica "but Jason not really that interesting and Cheryl, one minute she's ok the next minute she's the queen bee on a rampage, anyway their not as bad as some other people"
However, when Veronica looks back down the hill, she notes the car behind the Blossom's, a shining fancy black car she winces when she recognises who car it was,
"great here comes someone worst then all of the Blossom's put together" Veronica said with annoyed tone
The person she was talking about was Reggie Mantle, the Mantle family was third richest family in town but not as rich as the Lodge's or Blossom's, Reggie parents used to run the town's newspaper then later deciding to become journalist they were alright, Reggie on the other hand was everything you hate in a person, he was sexist, raciest, a homophobe and the biggest bully you ever meet, his ego was a never ending pit, hence he likes to calls himself Mantle the magnificent, he sees himself as a ladies man but most girls avoid him like the plague, not because he wasn't good looking, it was his attitude and personality that pushes girls away.
"you know if you said that when you were little I wouldn't understand, but after what he did at last week football game I now see why" Hiram said while shaking his head
"what happened with him, he was so nice when he was little" said Hermione
"well, no he was always like this" Veronica responded "he's just gotten worse and worse over the years"
"ok enough looking at our guests, let's go and meet them" said Hiram
As the cars pulled up in front of their mansion and the guests started to get out and started to greet each other and the Lodge family, Veronica was hugging her friends, Hiram was shaking hands and Hermione was telling people where to go, soon the Blossom's arrived, as much as Hiram didn't want to he walk over to Clifford side of the car (he was driving by the way) and shake his hand and welcome him to the party, Hermione went over to Penelope side of the car to welcome her when Reggie car pulled up right near her almost hitting her, she jumped back in fright, Reggie jumped out and didn't even notice Hermione, all he said was.
"have no fear everybody Mantle the magnificent is here" when he said that most people role their eyes other people like Veronica get down to the point.
"hey where are your parents"
"oh, they couldn't make it, their planning a trip overseas but don't worry you have me" he responded
Veronica just smiled and laughs avoiding what she really thinks of situation, really, she just wanted to punch him in the face. Of course, she wouldn't be the only one as Cheryl and Jason came out the car to have a go at him.
"gee, Reggie coming a bit close there" Cheryl said "a bit closer and this would have been a funeral not a party"
"although it would be the first time, he crashes a car before right Reggie" said Jason
"hey look there's no crashed car this time and nobody got hurt, what's there to be scared about" Reggie said obnoxiously, when he said that Hermione gave him a nasty look which of course he doesn't notice.
Cheryl then went up to Veronica and asked her
"hey is someone like Toni coming to the party"
"Toni? The new girl in town, no I don't think so, we don't know her or her family that well, why" Veronica asked
"never mind its nothing"
"but you're the one that brut it up"
"I said its Nothing, OK" Cheryl said back sharply as she followed the others to the party, Betty was the next to walk up to Veronica
"what was that all about"
"I have no idea" Veronica responded
The guests went straight through the mansion to the main courtyard, the mansion and the garden was perfectly made, the Lodge family spend their money only for the best, but wisely at same time and they weren't lazy, Hiram built the mansion himself and Hermione grew the garden herself, of course they had help, in fact the one help has been with them since Veronica was born his name is Smithers, he helps clean and maintain the house and garden, now he was the main caterer, helping serving food and drink along with the other hired help.
He served the adults alcohol (Mr Lodge told him not to give the kids any of the stuff)
"oh, Mr Lodge" said Smithers as he pulled out a ring of keys out of his pocket "here are the keys for the wine cellar that you gave me"
"just leave them on the table over there, we may need more drinks later on" he responded
Smithers put them on the nearby table in the hall and soon joined the others, Reggie stayed back, he then picked up the nearby keys and went down the side corridor.
Back with the others Kevin parents ask Kevin about the flowers they were meant to give the Lodge family, he turned and went back through the mansion for the car, however Reggie came out of nowhere he then bumped into Kevin.
"watch it, Fag" Reggie said angry as he then ran towards the main entrants, he looks like he was hiding something in his jacket that he didn't want anyone to see
Kevin was loss for words after what Reggie just called him, but now he was mad, he walked right after Reggie, he spotted him outside at his car, he was doing something with his glove compartment before he shuts it and locks the car altogether, Kevin then approached Reggie.
"Hey, what did you call me back there" Kevin said in a very pissed off tone
"I said watch it ok" Reggie now realised what he said may have bitten himself in the backside as went back inside the mansion, he did not wanna mess with Kevin when he is mad last time, he did that a wrestling competition he almost broke his arm
Kevin was still mad at Reggie but now he had to focus on the flowers, he got the flowers out of the car and back to the party, he cut through the mansion again and of course Reggie was up to his old tricks, he had a whiskey bottle in his jacket now, he must have got it out of the Lodge's wine cellar that's why he was putting the keys back on the table where he found them, Kevin didn't want to talk or be near Reggie right now and thought nothing of it.
The party was getting bigger by the minute as more guests were coming in, they were all chatting away and eating food, Reggie however was drinking from his whiskey bottle that he stole as well as taking sips of other adult's drinks when they weren't looking, and now he was looking someone to pick on.
Archie and Jughead were taking together.
"so, I was thinking" Archie said "why don't we do a Halloween theme for the school blog for this October"
"that could work" Jughead agrees "we have likeā¦"
Just then Reggie barge in the conversation and 'accidentally' side bumps Archie, spiling archie drink onto Archie shirt.
"hey, what the hell" Archie said annoyed
"oh, sorry about that pal" Reggie replied, but he didn't sound he meant it, then turned to Jughead "so, what are you guys talking about"
"we were talking about a Halloween theme for the school blog" said Jughead
"oh, that great, I should help out" said Reggie, Jughead and Archie looked at each other, they didn't really want Reggie help because last time he helped out he made the blog all about himself, Reggie turned back to Jughead. "so Jughead can I ask you something"
"yeah, sure" Jughead was a little unsure if he wanted to answer any of Reggie questions
"are you really asexual, because I think it's a lot of bull"
"Reggie, don't" Archie could not believe of what Reggie was trying to do, he was trying to whined up Jughead
"I told you, I just don't feel that sort of thing to people, I love them but not like that" Jughead replied
Reggie just snorted "more like your too scared to have a girlfriend, or a boyfriend" he then put his hand on Jughead shoulder "is that why you eat so much"
Archie just shook his head in frustrated, Jughead smelled the booze on Reggie and took his hand off his shoulder
"Reggie are you drunk" Jughead said in degust
"no, but I do have this" Reggie showed them the whiskey bottle from his jacket
"Reggie, you could get in trouble" said Archie "this is a family event not a beer pong party"
"what are you gonna do about it" Reggie all of a sudden gets all mad with Archie "you're gonna tell on me again"
Archie didn't say anything as Reggie left with his whiskey.
Veronica, Betty and Kevin who were watching nearby approached Archie and Jughead
"so, you guys had a bad with Reggie too" said Veronica
"you too had it bad with Reggie as well" asked Archie
Kevin nods his head "he called me a fag"
Jughead just slapped himself in the face "why again are we friends with him"
"Jughead is right" said Veronica "this has to stop, I say we cut him off and stop talking to him altogether"
The Archie, Jughead and Kevin all agree, Betty was a little worried
"Don't you guys think that's a bit harsh"
"Betty he can't keep walking over us and thinks it ok" said Veronica "I've learned things the hard way that you don't always get what you want by yelling and screaming"
Betty thought about it, then agreeing with the others
"ok but I think some of the others should be involved too" said Archie "I know for a fact that they fed up with Reggie actions"
So the gang split up to tell the others the plan, Archie told Moose, Jughead told Dilton, Veronica told Midge, Kevin told Chuck and Betty told Ethel, meanwhile the Blossom twins were together as they were most of the time
"look at that lazy excuse for a mansion" said a very cocky Jason "father would have made it better"
"yeah, sure Jason" said Cheryl who wasn't into what Jason was talking about
"is there something wrong, you been acting weird all day " said Jason
Cheryl was about to say something, but that is when Hiram tapped on his wine glass to get everyone attention
"may I have everyone attention please" everyone looked towards him "I want to thank you all not just for coming but for everything else, you see when me and my wife first came here for an escape from the city all of you were so welcoming, so we settled down here and helped fund the town's museum, so I say again thank you."
Everyone started clapping, Hermione patted her husband on the shoulder and then she gave her speech
"I would also like thank you, for treating us like an equal and your hospitality has been the finest, and further more we are also giving a donation to the town book club" everyone clapped again and then it was Veronica turn to give a speech
"I would love to thank you all, because I wouldn't know who I am if it wasn't for you, as you know I didn't attend any of the Riverdale schools until l wasn't happy being around snobs who only care for themselves, and when I left and went to schools here, I became a snob myself, but all of you change me and my life for the better, so thank you all"
Before anyone could clap, Reggie now completely drunk stands on top one of the tables, waving his bottle of whisky in the air
"yeah, she talking about me, I was the one that change her life when I had that threesome with her and Betty"
Everyone turned to Reggie, some made sounds of confused, some of snicked at what he said, others like Betty and Veronica were disgusted, Mr Weatherbee and Miss Grundy walked straight up to Reggie.
"young man come down this instant" they said, however the table that Reggie collapsed under his weight, he fell on top of them knocking them over and food and drinks went everywhere.
Hiram demanded that Reggie must leave the party, Chuck offed to take him home, but before Chuck left with Reggie, he told the others that he was in.
Now all they had to do was find the right time and place to do so and when Reggie would be available, none of them we're going to back out this time not even Betty it was time to end things with Reggie once and for all
Meanwhile in another town called Greendale Sabrina the teenage witch was sitting on her bed talking to her boyfriend.
"well, I hope you get better Harvey she said" she loved her boyfriend she was doing all that she can that she could make him feel better but she could hear the front door opening and shutting on her house "OK I've got to go Harvey my aunts home bye"
Sabrina went downstairs her aunts were calling her down anyway she notices there was something very wrong with them
"what's going on" she said "did something happen at the witch council"
"a gypsy came tonight" said aunt Zelda "she had some very bad news"
"really" said Sabrina "but you said they can never be trusted
"this time it's different" said Hilda "she said there would be a dark presence coming and it will soon start the apocalypse, but she said that a prophecy about a group of teenagers with different abilities one of whom is half breed from this covenant
Sabrina gasped when she heard that, that would mean she would have to save the world
OK guys I hope you enjoyed this chapter, I'm not sure if I should edit this chapter but if you guys can let me know I will do so, and I promise you I'm writing more faster, bye.
