Next few days Callie was helping Archie campaign for their dad. Going from door to door handing out fliers. Ever since her last kidnapping, Callie was not allowed to be out and alone. She had to be escorted home and to any place where she needed to be. Which Sweet Pea was more than happy to escort her places. Her dad approved of the relationship, her brother was a bit mad, but he was warming up to Sweet Pea. The serpents were all happy that Sweet Pea had found someone. At the moment she was walking with Jughead and Betty.

" Any word on Chic?" Callie asked.

" No. He hasn't called since called since I took him to the bus station," Betty answered. " So, who knows? Maybe he's gone for good."

" Hey, the silver lining to all this Chic stuff over the last couple weeks..." Jughead rambled. " That's as bad as it gets, Betty. It can't get worse, how could it?"

" My dad could be the Black Hood," Betty responded. At that moment Callie remembers that day. When Hal Cooper was in Polly's room on the phone, as he stared directly into Callie's room.

" Yeah, okay. Well, that would be worse," Jughead scoffed as he walked ahead of them.

" I was able to listen to the last few calls," Callie whispered. " Why haven't you told anyone that you-know-who has been calling you again?"

"I'm scared Callie," Betty answered.

" Chic didn't take the bus out of town did he?" Callie asked.

" I don't want to talk about it," Betty said.

" Talk to Cheryl," Calloe advised.

When they got to school Callie was immediately greeted by Sweet Pea and a kiss on the cheek. Jughead and Betty looked at each other with a smirk before walking away. 

" How are you feeling today?" Sweet Pea asked as he held her hand.

" A lot better," Callie answered. 

" Are you coming to the Swords and Serpents?" Sweet Pe asked.

" Of course," Callie answered. 

" I can't wait to show off my new girlfriend to the serpents," Sweet Pea smiled.

" They already know who I am," Callie reminded him.

" Doesn't mean I can't show you off," Sweet Pea pointed out. They then sat in a Swords and Serpents meeting.

" War Baby called my father and I from Shankshaw," Jughead announced. " 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." At that moment the door opened, revealing Reggie, the Bulldogs, and Kevin.

" Which one of you reptiles was screwing Midge Klump?" Reggie demanded.

" What the hell is going on?" Jughead demanded. " This is a private meeting."

" I'm guessing it was you, Sweet Pea" Reggie accused, they all started to square off. Sweet Pea got in front of Reggie.

" Reggie, that's enough," Archie warned.

" You ass, I didn't even know Midge," Sweet Pea insulted.  " But yeah, I get why she wouldn't want fleas from you mangy Bulldogs!" They both started to fight each other, it took everyone in the room to separate the two boys. In the end, Archie and Jughead stood on the dividing lines, they both looked at each other.

Callie now sat in Jughead's trailer with Fangs. He had something to spill to them.

" It's bad, Andrews and Jones. It's really bad," Fangs admitted.

" So talk to us, Fangs," Callie advised.

" On the opening night of Carrie, when you were backstage filming your documentary and you found me in Midge's dressing room...I wasn't just giving her notes," Fangs explained.  

" You were hooking up," Jughead stated. " And you didn't tell Sheriff Keller?" 

" Do you know how guilty this makes you look?" Callie asked.

" I know! I know," Fangs answered.

" Did you do it?" Jughead asked Fangs was looking terrified.

" Of course not," Fangs answered. " You've got to believe me, Andrews and Jones!"

" We do!" Callie confirmed. " Somebody that takes a likable interest in someone isn't going to go around crucifying them."

" Can you delete the footage off your camera?" Fangs asked.

" I already gave the footage over to Sheriff Keller as evidence," Jughead answered.

" What do I do, Jones?" Fangs asked.

" Nothing," Jughead answered. " Lay low, Serpents got your back."

" We got your back," Callie added.

***********

The next day at school there was paper taped on every school locker. They were about the dark circle.

" Did your brother do this?" Sweet Pea asked as he took one down.

" Reggie," Callie answered. " He wants to bring down the Serpents."

" What about your brother?" Sweet Pea asked. " As I recall he tagged our turf, pulled a gun out on me, in front of my boys."

" He doesn't care about going after the Southside anymore, he only wants to bring down one person," Callie answered. " And that's the Black Hood, It's who he has been after all this time."

" I hope you are right," Sweet Pea sighed.

*********

Callie now sat at Pop's with Jughead, talking to FP.

" Sheriff Minetta wouldn't give me back my footage," Jughead informed. " Says he wants to go through it frame by frame."

" It's only a matter of time before he puts two and two together and brings Fangs in," Callie stated.

" Damn it," FP swore as he slammed ht fist on the counter. " Of all the girls in Riverdale High..."

" What do we do?" Jughead asked. 

" If Fangs runs, he looks guilty. If he's caught withholding the truth, he'll look like the killer," FP explained. 

" It's a perfect storm," Callie scoffed.

" The Lodges endorsed this new Sheriff," Jughead informed. " They want Midge's killer caught and if it's a Southsider, and so much the better."

" Then we hunker down....Get ready to fight," FP confirmed. " Callie?"

" Yeah," Callie.

" We are going need you to fight with us," FP said.

" I will," Callie said as the door opened. They turned to Archie. " I will see you guys tomorrow." When the Andrew kids got home, they saw there dad standing at the table looking down.

" Dad?" Callie asked as they walked into the kitchen.

" What are you still doing up?" Archie asked.

" I got this note," their dad informed. He showed the piece of paper. It said YOU"RE NEXT SINNER! " Pinned to the front door. I can only assume it's from our old pal, the Black Hood." Soon the LOdges came over with the new Sheriff. 

" It's clear what has to be done. We cancel the debate," Hiram suggested. " Prank or not, it's not a risk we can take."

" I agreed. Until the Black Hood's caught, we have to be careful," Callie agreed.

" Can you beef up security at the Town Hall?" Fred asked Sheriff Minnetta.

" Fred, honestly-" Hiram started.

" Dad, you can't be serious," Archie stated.

" We'll knock Town Hall down tighter than a steel drum," Sheriff Minetta confirmed.

" The town is scared, They need to be shown we can't be cowed," Fred advised.

" Well, if Fred's in, so are we," Hermione confirmed. They Lodges then left, and Archie went up to his room.

" Callie, have you been getting escorted everywhere?" Her dad asked.

" Yes," Callie answered. " Have you been taking precautions?"

" Yes," her dad answered. Callie then went up to her room, when she got there she saw Sweet Pea standing outside her room. She let him in. " Are you insane? There's a serial killer out there."

" I just wanted to see you," Sweet Pea stated as he sat on her bed.

" I don't want you dead," Callie stated. 

" I will be fine, I have my knife," Sweet Pea confirmed. 

 " That knife won't do much defense for a bullet," Callie said.

" Is it true? About Fogarty?" Sweet Pea asked.

" Yeah," Callie nodded. " Things are not looking good for him right now."

" Will he get a lawyer if he gets taken?" Sweet Pea asked. " Can you be his attorney?"

" I'm not old enough or qualified to do so," Callie answered. " But I might know someone who would happily step in."
