"What do you mean the have Hotdog?" I ask, looking around the pool for Jug.
"They took him, I saw him chained up!" I nod, grabbing his hand, sending shivers down my spine as I pull him to find Jug. "Jughead!" He shouts, pulling from me and running to our friend.
Jughead scrunches his brows. "What's up?"
"It's the Ghoulies, Jughead. Those bastards have Hot Dog."
I stand next to Cheryl and Toni as Sweet Pea, Betty, Fangs, and Sweet Pea join us in an old room of Thorn Hill. "Are you absolutely sure that this was Hot Dog?"
"Hundred percent man." Fangs stands up straighter. "They must've snatched him on Riot Night." He looks over at me. "He looked skinny, I don't think the Ghoulies are feeding him enough." Sweet Pea stands next to Cheryl, causing me to move towards fangs, who wraps his arms around me.
"Hot Dog." I sigh sadly.
Sweet Pea speaks up. "We're lucky those animals aren't slow-roasting him in a grill." He mutters. I look up at him, our eyes meeting, causing me to look down awkwardly.
"What do we do Jughead?" Toni asks, removing the attention from me and Pea.
"We'd be going behind enemy lines, outnumbered, open to attack from all directions," Betty shifts on her feet from Jugheads words. "and risking another gang-war."
I stand up straight, walking in circles. "No serpent left behind, right? That includes our spirit animal." I say. Cheryl smiles at me, nodding.
"Okay, were going to deploy after dark." Jughead begins. "It's gonna be a stealth mission. It's gonna be quick."
"Jug, last time you and Emmy have went into Ghoulie territory, you were both beaten to within an inch of your life." Betty mumbles. I bite my lip nervously. My baby girl, gone. Sweet Pea sucks in a breath, scuffling his feet.
Cheryl steps in. "He'll have backup this time."
"And we're gonna be quick, Betty." Jug tells his girlfriend. "They won't even know we were there."
Betty nods. "Well, then I'm coming with you."
"Me too." I add.
"No." Jughead agrees.
Betty cuts us off. "No. Don't you dare tell me it's too dangerous, Jug. The Serpent Queen is a warrior queen, and Emmy is more stealthy and quick than all of us."
"So if you're on the frontlines, so are we." I say, standing my ground with my dear cousin. Toni looks at me in approval, Fangs smirking at me as Sweet Pea turns away.
"Okay." Jughead finishes. "Let's bring Hot Dog home, shall we?"
I walk out of the room, making my way back to the party. "Emmy." I turn around, Sweet Pea jogging up to me. "Wait up, please."
