Sweet Pea and I were making out behind a shack. His hands were up my shirt and I hands cupped his face.

"Eww."

I turned to see Cheryl and Toni. "Hey."

"Get used to it." Sweet Pea continued to kiss me.

"Babe." I pushed him back a bit. "Let's go hangout with everyone for a bit, we'll do something tonight ok?" I stepped away from him.

Sweet Pea smacked my ass and grabbed my hand. "Let's go, Fangs is got to be here somewhere."

We walked around until we found Fangs talking with Jughead

"How are you man?" I asked.

"Healing, I should be resting but F.P. has an announcement." Fangs smiled brightly.

Just then F.P. whistled. "Listen up now! Hey listen up!"

The music stopped and all of us turned to see what F.P. was going to say, my mom was next to him.

"Some 60 years ago, the very first Serpent meeting to place on these same riverbanks and it only makes sense that this is where we gather now, where I... "F.P. paused for a moment. "Where I say my goodbye. Jughead would you step up here son?"

F.P. waited for Jughead to get up and join him.

"Go." I hit Jughead in the arm.

Jug got up and stood next to F.P.

"Hyeon, get up here too." My mom spoke.

I looked around, shocked, before actually getting up and joining her.

"I and Myeong are retiring from the Serpents. Me for real this time." F.P. announced.

"Mom? You just came back." I whispered to her.

"You never truly leave the Serpents." She smiled.

"But my boy, my boy has never stopped fighting for this crew, hell he almost died for it. Along with Hyeon who kept the Serpents together in a time of crisis, though she didn't fight with us alongside the Ghoulies she's stopped our gang from doing some pretty dumb things. That's why I'm giving Jughead the mantle and Hyeon full right to kick his ass if he get's out of line and plans to do something reckless, to keep the Serpents together and sane." F.P. explained.

Everyone cheered.

"So this is pretty much me making sure he doesn't try to sacrifice himself again and a co leader to keep things in check?" I questioned.

"That's what your mother did when we were younger." F.P. smiled. "Who else would step to the big guys like your boyfriend over there?"

I shrugged. "True."

"Now as your first act as Serpent King..." F.P. gestured toward Cheryl and Toni.

Toni pulled a red Serpent jacket from a duffel bag she was holding and handed it to F.P.

"... I think you know what to do with this." F.P. put the jacket in Judhead's hands.

Everyone cheered once more.

"All right, all right. All I can say is, I love you dad. And the Serpents will not die out, not on my watch." Jughead assured everyone.

I elbowed him and glared.

He laughed a bit. "On our watch." Jug held his hand out to Cheryl.

Cheryl took off her jacket and handed it to Toni before advancing towards us. She turned and Jug helped her put her jacket on. I smiled brightly and hugged her.
