Thank the Switchblade

While being dragged away by cops, I tried reaching for the switchblade in the breast pocket of my jacket.

Luckily, I was placed in the same car as Sweets and Toni. Thank the lord. 

It would be so much more awkward if they weren't here.

I whisper into Sweet's ear, "Sweets, I need you to do something that'll help us escape. In my breast pocket is one of the switchblades you gave me, pretend to be floundering around my breast. I swear if you actually do it, you won't have any hands to grope anything anymore. After you get it, give it to me immediately, I'll do the rest."

I let Toni into the plan, telling her the exact same thing.

Sweet Pea's hand slowly makes its way into the pocket, he takes one of the blades out and holds my hand to place it in.

Gently clicking on the automatic button, the blade zings out.

 I put the sharpest end into the keyhole of Toni's handcuffs and twist it until I hear the soft crack. "Wait for me to get Sweet's and we'll jump," I tell her softly

"What about your cuffs?" She asks worriedly

"It'll be fine. If we do mine too, it's gonna waste too much time." 

I get working on Sweet's handcuffs to hear the all too familiar clunk again. "On the count of three, we jump, okay?" 

They nod, anticipating the nerve wrecking moment.

"1..." I whisper

"2..." I say a little louder

"3!!!" I shout

Toni gets out quickest since she's smaller than Sweet Pea, and in front of me.

 Then, Sweet Pea is able to get out three quarters of a second longer than her. 

I jump on Toni's side which makes most sense. The switchblade stabs itself into the palm of my hand.

"Shit!" I shout 

Sweets and Toni run to me. I swiftly pull the blade out to get the cuffs off. Crack. I pull them off throwing it into the bushes, wherever we were. 

"Holy shit you're bleeding!" Sweet Pea yells

"Really? I hadn't noticed. Don't worry about me either. We need to get Jug NOW!"

The three of us take out on a sprint. We had to be near the police station, we'd been driving for a while. "There's only one place Jughead could be."

"Oh yeah? Where's that, Firecracker?" Toni asks

"Who's the only person Jug could possibly look up to at a moment like this?"

"FP!" The two shout 

We head off to the Southside once again. "You don't think Fangzy would mind if I take his bike right?"

Sweet Pea shakes his head.

"Great!" 

After finally reaching the bikes, I hand them each one of the switchblades that they had left. 

We rode off into the sunset and lived happily, ever after.

Just kidding! We seperately rode to the facility that held FP to find their parked car.
