"Even A Blind Man Could See The Love You Hold For That Girl."

"This emergency meeting better be an emergency. I have more important things to do" Leon said. "Fucking isn't more important" Oscar mumbled with a small smirk.

Sweet Pea remained silent as he looked at all the Serpents, not holding eye contact with any longer than what was necessary. He was curious to see when Leon would ask him why he stormed out of his house the previous night, not that he was going to tell him.

"I've called this meeting to talk about something, or should I say, someone in particular."

Sweet Pea was confused. Jughead didn't find out about what happened with Rosalie decide to hold an intervention, did he?

"Penny Peabody has got my dad dealing drugs." Jughead's words put Sweet Pea at ease, though he was curious on what Penny had done. "I know this, 'cause she had me doing it before him. Now, she's roped in Tall Boy and Sweet Pea."

Sweet Pea scoffed. "Man, if you're pissed your old man tapped me instead of you-" "-No, Sweet Pea, no" Jughead said cutting him off midsentence.

"I'm pissed because I don't want the Serpents to end up like the Ghoulies. And I doubt that any of you became a Serpent just to be at the beck and call of a drug queen pin. I know where this ends. Death. Jail. Which is why in the interest of self-preservation we have to take out Penny."

"Snake Charmer's helped some of us" Sweet Pea told him. "Oh yeah, and what did she ask for in return, Sweet Pea, huh? How many favours?"

Sweet Pea didn't reply as he stared at the boy annoyed.

"Now if we don't stop Penny tonight, she is going to get every single one of us in on this. I promise you. I promise you, Sweet Pea" Jughead said.

Oscar glanced at Fangs, who glanced at him both the two boys glanced at Sweet Pea who stared at Jughead.

"What I am asking is, are you willing to risk your necks to save my dad's life?" Jughead asked.

It fell quiet, no one speaking, no one whispering. Even Leon was uncharacteristically quiet.

"What's the first law?" Toni asked. "No Serpent stands alone" Sweet Pea said as he stood up. "I'm in." Fangs stood alongside his friend. "Me too." "Don't forget me!" Oscar almost shouted.

Leon smirked as he looked between everyone. "Let's do this."

Leon walked into Pop's Diner, searching for a certain Brunette girl. He wasn't surprised as he found her talking to James. "I need answers!"

James jumped at the sight of Leon and his harsh tone. The second he caught sight of the Serpent Jacket he quickly walked off. Rosalie huffed as she turned to her friend. "Thanks a lot, I was having a conversation."

"I honestly don't give a fuck. Now what's happening in the land of Sweetlie?" Leon asked. "Nothing's happening, nothing's happened" Rosalie told him. "Elena Rosalie Wilde, you better tell me right now what the hell is happening!" He demanded.

Rosalie rolled her eyes as she started to walk away, Leon following her. "Sorry buddy, I can't give you the answers you're looking for, mainly because I have no idea what's going on" she said.
