-A couple of weeks later-

Betty's pov:

I had been trying to stay on the down low about joining the serpents, I have spoke with Jug about it and he told me what I had to do...yet, he was trying to keep it a secret that I had to do the serpent dance.

-Flashback-

B-"Hey Jug can I talk to you?"

J-"Sure" (smiles)

He put Harper down on her play mat and she started to play with her stuffed animals.

J-"What's up?"

B-"W-Well I was thinking...and I want to join the serpents"

His eyes lit up, but there also laid a mixture of worry in his eyes.

J-"Okay, but you do know there are some dangers, being apart of a gang, especially ours"

B-"I know, but I also want to be in the serpents, right away"

J-"Okay..."

He started to tell me all the rules as Harper climbed onto my lap.

B-"Okay, I'll do all of it, when do you start?"

J-"You're really serious about this" (smiles)

B-"Yeah" (smiles)

-End of flashback-

I had done everything Jug told me to do, but then the other day I overheard a conversation he had with the rest of the gang.

-Flashback-

J-"Come on guys, she's done everything"

?-"She hasn't done the dance"

J-"The dance doesn't mean anything!"

?-"The hell it does!"

J-"Come on, can't you guys just cut her some slack, please"

?-"She does the dance, or she isn't in the serpents"

They all got up and I hurried back to my room. As they started to walk out the door I heard something shatter in Jug's office. I knew what I had to do if I wanted to be in the serpents, and I'm gonna do it. I walked downstairs and sat down at the bar with Harper on my lap.

B-"I need your help..."

T-"Sure, what's up?"

I told her my plan, she said that she understood and she was impressed by my commitment to getting into the serpents.

We had come up with a plan, Toni was going to have everyone come to the bar so they could see my commitment.

T-"You sure you want this?"

B-(nods)"I want them to see that I really am committed"

T-"Okay"

She sent everyone the message and now we just waited for the day to come...
