Chapter 38

Ezra Jones

"Come on, Ezra! We're gonna be late!" Jordan yelled up the stairs.

I stared at myself in the mirror, smiling like a dork "Yeah, coming"

I shut my bedroom door behind me before making my way downstairs. My dad, JB and Jordan were stood at the end of the steps.

"Oh, look at my little princess" My dad cooed, looking all teary-eyed "You look so beautiful"

I shake my head, laughing lightly "Don't cry dad, you'll make me cry"

Jellybean forces me to take pictures with her, then takes pictures of Jordan and I.

We get into my dads car and he drives us to the school, Jughead, Archie, Betty and Veronica were already waiting outside.

"Who new you aren't always ugly" Jughead joked, earning a shove.

We make our way in, Jordan holding my hand tightly.

"You look breathtaking" He whispers.

I smile widely "Shut up, dork"

He laughs "You know I love you, right?"

"I love you too"

The gym was full of students dancing and enjoying themselves when one of the teachers walked out onto the stage holding a microphone.

"Good evening, Riverdale Renaissance revellers. At long last, it's time to announce this year's court."

I stand up straight, holding Jordans hand tight as I wait for her to announce the prom king and queen.

"And the winner of Prom Queen is...Betty Cooper!"

I furrow my eyebrows "Did Betty even campaign?"

"God fucking damn it, I ask Jughead not to do one thing, one" Jordan rants "I'm sorry baby"

I look up at him in confusion "What do you mean? What did he do?"

"He rigged the fucking campaign in some attempt to finish this obsession he and Betty have with the Gargoyle King"

Of course he did because, as usual, Jughead cares about him and him only.

"That's it" I huff storming towards the exit, being stopped by Fangs.

"Sorry, no ones allowed out"

"Listen here you underdeveloped mutt, get out of my way or so help me God I will-"

He cuts me off "Okay, go. Jesus Christ."

I push through the doors and stomp towards the school, the only place either of my self absorbed siblings would be.

"Betty! Jughead!" I shout, walking through the halls "Jordan told me what you jackasses did!"

I hear a scream that makes me fall in fright, Betty. I can here the sounds of fast moving footsteps in the distance.

I run down the hall in the direction of the scream, looking around frantically.

"Betty! Where are you?"

"Somebody help me!" She screams, the sound of metal screeching following behind.

I keep running, I see a shadow up ahead, it must be Betty.

The shadow doesn't move, resulting in me running straight into it.

"Betty, what the-"

It's not Betty. Instead I'm face-to-face with the Gargoyle King.

"Who are you!" I scream, scrambling to my feet "Where is my sister?"

I start walking backwards, trying to distance myself from him but he follows.

"Answer me!"

His pace quickens, making me take off once more.

For a thing made of sticks and a mask it was fucking fast. I keep running, I may not know about G&G but I do know whoever it was he was a psychotic murderer and I wasn't taking any chances.

The only place I can think to hide is the janitors closet under the stairs so that's where I head.

Only to see the Black Hood trying to grab my sister as she heads in that direction.

"Hey asshole! Over here!" Ezra yells, stopping Hal and Betty.

Hal turns and starts making his way towards Ezra, making her run as fast as her legs could carry her.

"Hide!" She yells over her shoulder. Betty did as she was told and locked herself in the closet, crying quietly.

She jumped when there was a knock on the door.

"Betty? It's Jug" Jughead speaks, knocking again.

Betty cries in relief, opening the door and falling into her boyfriend.

"Did you see him? Did you see him?" Betty cried.

"Who? The Gargoyle King?" Jughead asks checking her over.

Betty shakes her head "No the Black Hood, he's back"

Jughead helped Betty to the schools office where FP was waiting for them.

"Where's Ezra?" Betty asked sitting down.

FP and Jugheads eyes widen.

"What do you mean? She's with Sweet Pea isn't she?" FP asked.

She shakes her head "No she was there she- she saved my life"
