Part 16: the return

Betty's POV
"What are you doing here?" I ask.
"Can't I see my daughter and wife?" He asks.
"Oh shove it Hal. Why are you really here?" Mum says raising an eyebrow.
"May I come in?" He asks. I turn to my mum and she nods her head. I open the door so there is room for my dad to come in. He enters holding a bag. "I brought movies. Betty can you make some popcorn?" He ask. I head the kitchen and start making the pop corn. As the pop corn pops I start thinking. Maybe my family can come back as together. Maybe mum and dad can be happy together and Polly can return with the twins and we could the perfect family again. What if. *ding* the microwave goes. I poor the popcorn into a bowl and start heading towards the kitchen. I freeze when I enter the room. Pop corn flies EVERYWHERE.
"WHAT IS GOING ON." I ask.
"Take a seat Betty!" My dad states. I stare blankly. "Take a seat or I pull the trigger and the Buckley goes through your mums skull." Shaking from terror I sit down. "Now let's watch some videos shall we." He states. A video begins playing, it's a young boy. The lady in the back ground is telling him about all the terrors that happened in riverdale. Forcing the kid to believe that riverdale needs to be cleansed if it's sinners. Then I realised. No it can't be. No. A tear rolls from my face. "You know Betty." Hal says.
"Know what?" I saw shaking.
"Who am I Betty?" "WHO AM I?"
" you're the, the, the black hood." I stutter.
"I knew you were clever." He states. "I know you have that darkness in you too Betty." He claims. I felt sick like I could pass out. "I'm nothing like you." I reply.
"Well I was hoping you'd join me, but seems like I'm killing you and your mother then." He laughs. My heart was pounding. I was going to die from the hands of my own father. I didn't even realise what I was doing. It's like my instincts took over, I whacked him over the head with flower pot on the table knocking him out. "QUICK CALL THE POLICE." My mum says. I ring 911 as quick as I could.

Archie's POV
I see the bright blue and ref lights flash through the window. I peek outside to see where the light are coming from. I feel my stomach drop as to discover it's from Betty's house. I run down stairs. "Where are you going?" My dad ask.
"The police lights their coming from Betty's house." I exclaim and we both run outside. We discover Alice and Betty standing outside watch Hal get shoved into a police car, they were both a mess. We walk over to them. "Betty what happened?" I ask.
"My dad Arch, he was the black hood." She explains. I bring her into a hug. "Don't you hate me, my dad shot your dad." She explains.
"Betty, I could never hate you. I love you." I say pulling her in closer. "I'm so glad your not hurt." I explain. If anything happened to Betty I'm not sure what I'd do, I've almost lost her before. I couldn't imagine going through that again. "Yous are welcome to stay at ours the night if you like." My dad states.
"That's would be lovely Fred, but I think I might go over the FP." Alice replies. "Betty?"
"I'd love to stay. Thank you Fred." Betty replies.

Betty's POV
Before my mums goes to FP I stop her. "Mum, I know Dads a serial killer, and Polly's gone, but I want to let you know. I'm always going to be here for you." I explain.
"Oh Betty, I'm always here for you too, I promise." She replies. We hug for what feels like and entirety. She really was the best. I walk over to Archie's and go up to his room. "I can't believe everything my dad has done Archie." I explain.
"Betty that was your dad not you." He states. "You couldn't have done anything."
"He said I had the same darkness in my Arch." I stumble.

Archie's POV
"He said I had the same darkness in my Arch." Betty stumbles. I can't believe he could say that. "Betty when I look at you, I see pure happiness. The light to all the dark. The most beautiful, kind, caring warm hearted person I've ever know. There is know possible way you are anything like you father." I explain.
"Oh Archie Andrews, I love you." She states.
"Betty Cooper, I love you." I reply. I pull her into a long and passion kiss. Betty was the greatest thing that has happened to me.
