The day began as a normal one but who knew that it would take such a tragic turn from a simple mistake that was made and cravings that were given into
the jones girl was currently walking down the halls by herself until she was called on by sweet pea who was rushing to the classroom where meetings for the serpents were held he jogged up to her and spoke almost dragging her down the hall "hey come on we gotta go jones wants us for something it seemed important" she looked around quickly then nodded and caught up to him until she came to the classroom he had told them to meet at.
when she entered all of the serpents that attended the school and walked in holding sweet peas hand they took their places and apologised for being late and jughead began "War Baby called my father and I from Shankshaw. Her old adversaries, the Ghoulies, had been released.Word on the street is that they want Serpent blood.They're gunning for a re-match.They want war."
he was about to continue but was rudely interrupted by the door bursting open to reveal a bundle of bulldogs entering the room reggie being the ring leader "Which one of you reptiles was screwing Midge Klump?" Celestia eyed fangs anxiously biting her lip because she had known about fangs and midge for a while since their sneaking around had started. fangs told Celestia straight away knowing she could keep a secret and them being best friends.
"What the hell is going on? This is a private meeting." jughead defended as Celestia glared at reggie as he continued "I'm guessing it was you, Sweet Pea" Celestia snarled at the thought and tightened her grip on sweet peas hand he looked at her and released her hand before getting in reggie's face but Archie intervened
"Reggie, that's enough" but it was too late and Celestia had stepped closer "You ass, he didn't even know Midge.But yeah, I get why she wouldn't want fleas from you mangy Bulldogs!" Celestia withheld a laugh but reggie saw and threw himself at her and sweet pea did the same and everyone rushed to the scene until Celestia stood watching and put her fingers between her lips and let out a screeching whistle which caused everyone to stop and gave archie and jughead time to get int between the two fighting so the couldn't collide again
with that Celestia stormed out of the room with sweet pea following out swiftly behind her she ran up to a locker and full on punched one of them and not stopping until sweet pea forcefully pulled her away into his arms she tried to get away but he just held on tighter he held her and she eventually gave up hugging him back
"whats up Celestia this isn't like you whats on your mind?" she had previously had her head buried into sweet peas chest but she looked up and sighed "just everything i have to think about forgiving my mom and all this fighting i can't do it anymore i'm too exhausted from it all" he looked down at her and kissed her head "i know baby i won't fight anymore not unless i have to i pinky swear" she laughed a little before bring her hand from sweet peas back to in front of her face and held out her pinky he laughed and did the same as the entwined their fingers he said "i promise Celestia jones " she smiled as she kissed his hand just as her phone vibrated she looked at it and saw a text from fangs telling her to meet her at her trailer she quickly put her phone back in her pocket and smiled at her boyfriend
"who was that ?" she looked at him anxiously "oh it was my dad he wants me home you can head to the quarry with everyone" he looked at her weirdly "okayyyy?" she smiled and kissed his cheek "i'll see you soon ok" he kissed her back and nodded as she walked back to her car outside of the school she drove back to her trailer and paced it as jughead entered
"what are you doing her jug?" she asked nervously he looked at her and said "same thing you are i'm waiting for fangs" she sighed in relief "oh he messaged you too?" he nodded just as the knock of the door rang though out the trailer she walked to the door and opened it she pulled him in and hugged him "you idiot" he laughed as they all sat down at the table fangs asked the question "have you told him Cele?" she shook her head and he sighed but jughead asked curiously "told me what?" she looked at fangs then her brother "thats why hes here you dumbass" as she looked at fangs indicating for him to begin
"It's bad, Jones. It's really bad." Celestia bit at her nails anxiously as jughead replied "So talk to me, Fangs."fangs looked at him and carried on "On the opening night of Carrie, when you were backstage filming your documentary and you found me in Midge's dressing room" he inhaled before continuing "I wasn't just giving her notes" Celestia looked between the two as jughead put the pieces together" You were hooking up.And you didn't tell Sheriff Keller? Jeez, Fangs, do you know how guilty this makes you look?" Celestia hit her brothers arm "not helping" and fangs replied loudly " I know! I know."
jughead then asked "Did you do it?" Celestia scoffed "jughead!Of course not!" she could see fangs shaking and put her hand on his reassuringly "you've got to believe me, Jones!" the siblings both shouted "I do!" to which he replied " Can you delete the footage off your camera?" jughead sighed" I already gave the footage over to Sheriff Keller as evidence." fangs groane" What do I do, Jones?" " Nothing." Celestia glared at him "what do you mean noth-""Lay low.Serpents got your back.I got your back." Celstia then corrected him "we've got your back" he simply replied with "Okay."
she hugged him as she walked him to the door "godammit fangs why couldn't you keep it in your pants" she said jokingly trying to lighten the mood he smiled back "i'm sorry" she laughed and hugged him again "dont't worry everything will be fine bro"

it was the next day and everyone was at school the jones girl had not yet met with sweet pea but was walking with fangs to her next class scrolling through her phone when she saw a video "oh my god fangs your gonna wanna see this" he looked over at her phone to see the video jughead had recorded making him look guilty "how did it get out?" she asked and he shrugged now panicked "i don't know" they began rushing down the hall until they heard the PD of mr weatherbee speak " Attention, students.This is Principal Weatherbee.i need Fangs Fogarty to come to my office immediately." they both looked at each other and began running down the hall until they bumped into jughead and toni
" What the hell? That video's everywhere! How did it get out? We have to get you out of here, all right? " reggie then came bounding down the stairs "You're dead, Vixen killer!" fangs began to turn the other way where he was met with the new sheriff and the principle " This way - Mr.Fogarty! We need you to come with us." Celestia spoke at the same time as fangs "I didn't do anything." "he didn't do anything"
he went to run past them but was pushed against the lockers and his pocket knife fell out and they forcefully pushed him to the ground Celestia shouted to him "we'll sort this fangs" he just nodded as they cuffed his wrists and escorted him out
-
the day went by as normal but Celestia couldn't help but worry as to whether her friend was alright or not as soon as the final bell rang she raced to the station to find fangs sitting there on his own "wheres jughead?" he looked up to see her standing at the doorway "he went with attorney McCoy to answer some questions or something" she laughed as she walked up to the bars "attorney McCoy?" he nodded "yep she sat against the bars and messed with her rings "what mess have you got yourself into now fangs forgarty ?" he rubbed the back of his neck "i don't know Celestia but i want you to have my rings" her head snapped to his direction "what the fuck why ?" he handed them to her "because i trust you the most and i love my sister" she smiled as she took them "your goin soft on my ass" they both laughed as the two people came back
the jones girl stood up and walked to them sliding the rings on her fingers adding to her collection "what did they say?" to which jughead replied "their letting him out in around ten minutes so be prepared because there's protests goin on out there " Celestia sighed "where's sweet pea and everyone else?" he shrugged "their all out front " she nodded as the sheriff unlocked the cell "your free to go" he walked out of the cell as he held his best friends hand she looked at him "your gonna be fine trust me" he looked at her and kissed her head she smiled and they carried on walking until they got to the front and saw the crowd
she let go of fangs hand and went to sweet pea "you ok?" he nodded and kissed the top of her head and hugged her "i am now but we'll talk about you and fangs at home ok?" she arched a brow "okay?" but went back to fangs
"ok we could go out the side or back" she suggested to jughead he nodded and went to walk back to the other exit but was stopped by the new sheriff "You can't take Fangs out the front." toni said Celestia then said again to the whole group this time " We have to take the side entrance." but the sheriff said "Crowd's out there, too.So pick your poison, Serpent." Celestia hissed at him and sweet pea spoke" What do we do, man?" fangs then blurted out" I don't wanna die" Celestia ran to him and held his face in her hands and said "Fangs, you're not going to.Look at me, okay? We stand together so none of us falls." they all crowded around each other and Celestia spoke "In unity, there is strength." then all of the young serpents shouted "In unity, there is strength! "
they all then protected fangs by crowding around him and walking to the cars and bikes but when reggie approached but was pushed to the ground by archie they all stopped and looked around only to hear a gunshot they all turned to see reggie had a gun and when they looked at fangs blood began to slowly seep through his shirt and his body became limp they all surrounded him applying pressure to stop the bleeding Celestia screamed as tears tracked doen her face she held her hand on one side of his face and held his hand "come one fangs stay with me " she couldn't continue talking because sobs over took her body and she sat on her knees looking from his face to his gunshot wound she looked at reggie and screamed before looking back at fangs the colour beginning to drain from his face he began to close his eyes she said between sobs "fangs stay awake don't go to sleep please we need you here with us your part of the squad we can go down to the quarry and get high do whatever the fuck you want just stay with me"
she continued to cry as she stayed in her same position while everything seemed to be moving in slow motion she briefly looked at sweet pea to see him still trying to apply pressure but looking at reggie as if he was going to kill him she then looked back to her hurt best friend and said "that's why you gave me your rings?" he nodded and groaned out in pain "you knew something was going to happen" she just continued to cry and let out an ear piercing scream not knowing whether her best friend was going to survive....
