    Summary

    Sole survivor of the bloody massacre known as The Riverdale Nine, Betty Cooper has tried her hardest to run away from her past. Unable to confront the truths and betrayals that reside in her past, she throws herself into her detective work now more than ever, as the tenth anniversary of the massacre comes up. She plans to stay to herself and just get through life one day at a time, no distractions, and helping as many people as she can. Until she meets Jay.

    There's something about Jay. He's not a good person, that much is obvious. But he doesn't seem as evil as everyone says he is. After a little run in with him, Betty can't seem to get him out of her mind.

    When Archie invites Betty over to meet his new girlfriend, Veronica Lodge, Betty is stunned to learn that Veronica and Jay are half-siblings and even worse, Jay is the heir to a dynasty that has power over everything Betty has been fighting against in her career.

    Summary

    “Mom?” Betty calls into the house, peering around the corner.

    No response.

    As she makes her way into the kitchen and dining room area, Betty sees the door to the backyard has been haphazardly left wide open. The curtain attached to the inward side blows in the evening breeze.

    Before doing much else, Betty secures that door, shutting it and locking it. When she’s finished she faces the kitchen.

    It’s vacant… except for something unfamiliar left on the kitchen island.

    Betty walks over, her head tilting in concern. There’s a piece of paper taped to a rock and… blood pooled under it. She rips the note off of the stone, still confused.

    "Your mother says hi."

    OR: When Alice gets kidnapped, Betty's taken into protection by the Southside Serpents. She meets Jughead Jones. They do not get along.

    Summary

    “Jughead?” she called him again when he didn’t answer. “We’re lost, right?”

    He sighed defeated, and she moaned, but this time he couldn’t tell if it was from the pain or frustration. She always got frustrated when she didn’t get an answer.

    “Kind of, I think,” he said, embarrassed. Betty let out a little laugh.
