It’s morning in the woods outside of Riverdale as the sun hangs overhead and the ground is covered in snow. 2 deer walk around looking for food. Alex is shown in the distance holding daryl’s crossbow as the light from the sun reflects off of his metal arm. He closes one eye as he aims at one of the deer then suddenly a growl is heard. Suddenly Riley drops down from the tree tops and pummels one of the deer to the ground as the other runs off. The deer groans in pain as Riley roars and slashes open its neck with his throat. Alex walks over looking pissed as Riley stands up with blood on his hands

Riley: what? I got him

Alex: he was already in my sights and you let the other one get away. Besides that poor animal didn’t deserve to go out like that

Riley chuckles

Riley: it’s what a wolf would’ve done...besides you’ve murdered how many people in cold blood?

Alex gives him a look

Riley: and don’t worry, the other deer is already taken care of

Suddenly Wally runs past them and grabs alex’s Crossbow. He runs super fast through the forest and catches up with the deer. Wally gets infront of it then shoots it with the crossbow

Wally: sorry Bambi...but we gotta eat somehow





Jughead stands on the porch of the cabin smoking a cigarette as he watches Derek and Stefan chop wood with an axe as they’re both shirtless. Ella walks outside and stands next to Jughead

Ella: thank you

Jughead: for what?

Ella smiles

Ella: helping us...you risked your life getting that blood for us last night. It’s enough to last us several months

Jughead: hopefully this will all be over way before several months.

Ella: how is it in there? Beyond the wall

Jughead sighs

Jughead: a dictatorship. It’s only been a month since they ran you guys out and Hiram Lodge has full control of the city, he’s...he’s slandering you guys everytime he has a chance to...he’s making people hate supernaturals and anyone that supports them. He’s killing people...he’s executing them infront of town hall for all to see them hanging their bodies up on the wall. He’s killing supernatural allies like me and...last night his men were following me

Ella frowns

Ella: then leave...leave Riverdale and come stay with us. Archie too. Everyone in the pack loves you guys you can stay with us for as long as you want

Jughead: I know but...Riverdale is my home and my dad is there. Marcel wasn’t perfect but he was for the people...and yeah he’s different but he is what Riverdale stands for. Hiram Lodge is a villain...a tyrant...he’s the monster not you guys

Ella: then we play this smart and take him down. But we do it one step at a time...that way we all walk out of this alive

Jughead nods as Ella rubs his back. Jughead looks at Derek as Derek looks back at him and smiles





Danny is shown standing in the kitchen in his boxers as he makes some eggs. He glances over as Evan and Archie walk down the stairs from upstairs and they kiss as Archie goes and sits on the couch. Evan walks into the kitchen as Danny smiles

Evan: what’s that face for?

He chuckles

Danny: I’m just happy that you’re happy...and that you found someone. Especially someone that’s extremely hot

Danny laughs and playfully messes up Danny’s hair

Danny: HEY! ASSHOLE!

Evan: I am what I eat...

Danny rolls his eyes as Evan walks back over to the living room and cuddles with Archie on the couch.





Ian is shown banging on the front door of peter’s Cabin which is just a few yards from Derek’s.

Ian: come on uncle peter open up...please

Ian looks around then suddenly Andrew opens the door

Andrew: what?

Ian: where’s my uncle?

Andrew smirks

Andrew: did you schedule an appointment?

Ian growls and grabs Andrew and throws him out into the snow as Ian walks in and licks Andrew out. Ian walks through the cabin as there’s empty bottles of liquor everywhere and Ian steps on a dildo and laughs. He then goes into the living room as Nolan, Peter Pan and Travis are asleep on different couches and Peter Hale stands at the window just looking out at the snowy forest

Peter Hale: did you have to throw him out?

Ian: that kid is a prick

Peter Hale: his anger is what makes him so strong

Ian walks up beside his uncle as he looks worried

Peter Hale: what Can I help you with nephew?

Ian: I should’ve just went to Derek but he’s busy trying to make this place habitable, I could’ve went to Marcel but he’s too busy spying on Riverdale. So I came to you...because no matter what the topic is you seem to know everything about everything

Peter Hale: calling me a nerd like stiles?

Ian sighs as he looks down and closes his eyes

Peter Hale: Ian what is it?

Peter turns to his nephew and actually looks concerned

Peter Hale: talk to me

Ian talks with his eyes still shut

Ian: I don’t know...but I woke up this morning and went into the bathroom...I...I stubbed my toe and it hurt like a bitch so I growled and when I looked into the mirror my eyes were different...they...they didn’t glow red anymore

Peter frowns and his eyes go wide and he gasps as Ian opens his eyes and they’re glowing a bright purple

Peter: and the plot fucking thickens

peter is shown staring out his window as he watches Alex Argent dragging a Christmas tree out of the woods as the snow keeps falling. Peter sighs as he looks over at Ian who sits on the couch looking worried

Ian: are you gonna tell me something useful. Like why the hell my eyes are purple now?

Peter sighs

Peter: you’re evolving....normally something has to trigger it but in your case. It happened naturally

Ian: evolving into what?

Peter turns and looks at his nephew

Peter: the next step...there’s Betas then Omegas then Alphas then Deltas and then the rarest of the rare...True Alpha

Ian: like me....what’s after a true Alpha?

Peter: it’s a type of werewolf that hasn’t been documented in modern time...the stuff of legends. The Wolf with the purple eyes...The Gamma wolf

Ian looks confused

Ian: so....I’m...I’m...why me?

Peter: it’s not because you’re a Hale. It’s because you’re also a Targaryen...mid two regal bloodlines like that, something extraordinary is bound to happen.

Ian looks at his uncle

Ian: it’s Christmas Eve....and this is the gift I get

Peter rubs Ian’s shoulder

Peter: it is a gift....you’re now more powerful than all of us. Even me. Speaking of Christmas, what do you want for a gift?

Ian frowns

Ian: peter we’re hiding out in the woods and the only time we get food is when Jughead and Archie get it for us... Christmas is cancelled...for us it’s always been cancelled

Peter sighs

Peter: if you could ask Santa for one thing. What would it be?

Ian rolls his eyes, chuckles then finally gives in an answers

Ian: a baseball bat, mitten and a baseball.

Peter smiles

Peter: Christmas miracles can happen Ian

He rubs his nephews back

Stiles is shown standing in the woods holding a rifle as he looks around. Suddenly jack walks up to him and rubs stiles on the shoulder

Jack: I’ll take over for you

Stiles: I just got out here

Jack: you’re human you get cold...I don’t. Why are you even out here?

Stiles frowns

Stiles: because I can shoot a gun

Jack makes a face and stiles sighs

Stiles: because Eddie was going to but he’s not in a good headspace. He’s got some really bad PTSD over what juice was doing to him

Jack sighs

Jack: then you need to be there for him and let me be out here

Stiles smiles then hands the rifle to jack as jack stands outside. Jack paces around as the snow is falling and everything is eerily quiet. Jack looks around then suddenly he gets hit with a tranquilizer in his shoulder as he blinks several times then passes out. 4 men dressed in all black and wearing ski masks grab jack and pick him up then run off with him into the woods





Travis walks into peter’s Cabin and he chuckles as Peter Pan and Andrew take turns fucking Nolan on the couch

Travis: where’s Peter?

Nolan: OHHHHH NO CLUE!

Travis looks out the window and looks around as everything is quiet and he frowns as he quickly walks out of the cabin and walks over to Derek’s. He walks inside as Stiles stands in the kitchen talking to marcel, Barry and Alex

Travis: hey!

They look at him

Alex: lower your voice my baby is sleeping

Travis: who’s supposed to be patrolling outside?

Stiles: I just switched off with jack

Travis: he’s not out there...no one is.

Marcel frowns as he quickly walks outside and looks around

Marcel: jack...





Peter stands infront of the gap that goes into Riverdale as Stefan appears out of nowhere

Stefan: nope...we’re going home

Peter: it’s christmas

Stefan rolls his eyes

Stefan: and you have a death wish. We can’t be out here if we get spotted...

Peter: don’t you wanna bring Christmas cheer to your son and wife?

Stefan: of course but...keeping them alive comes first

Peter; I have a plan...but I need your powers in order to do so

Stefan raises an eyebrow

Stefan: and if I say no?

Peter’s claws come out as the claws on his right hand glow blue

Stefan: belaskos talons

Peter: then I’ll take your powers from you

Stefan rolls his eyes then nods

Stefan: alright fine fuck it....what do you want me to do?







Jack is shown blinking several times as he’s being dragged through the snow. Before he can react he’s lifted up and thrown into the back of a Jeep. Jack breathes heavily as the Jeep is packed full of armed men and most of them point their guns at his face

?: don’t say a word

Jack gulps as he nods and the Jeep starts driving down a snowy dirt road.

Jack: please

?: I SAID SHUT UP!

the man shoots Jack in the shoulder as jack cries out in pain.





Marcel stands in the middle of the woods as he hears jack’s Cries and hears the engine of the engine of the Jeep

Marcel: BARRY THAT WAY!

Barry sprints off through the woods and runs up beside the Jeep. The driver gasps as Barry punches through the window and grabs the steering wheel making the Jeep swerve all over the road. Jack growls as he bites down on the neck of the soldier next to him. The door swings open and both jack and about 3 of the soldier’s that were crammed into the back seat fall out as the Jeep keeps speeding. Jack gets up and runs into the woods as the soldiers shoot at him then suddenly an infected woman leaps at jack from out of the snow and pins him to the ground. Jack screams as she’s half frozen and has iceicles hanging from her arms. Suddenly a roar is heard as marcel appears and snaps her neck then he lifts jack up as the three soldiers approach. They open fire on them right as Marcel uses his own body to protect jack. Marcel screams as the bullets Riddle his back then suddenly Barry runs back and knocks down all of the soldiers. They scramble to grab their guns but that’s when Derek appears out of nowhere and pounces ontop of one and slashes his throat open then the second tries to run but Derek grabs him by his legs and repeatedly swings his body into the side of a tree snapping his back. The third runs off screaming as marcel teleports and appears infront of him then bites down on his neck with his fangs as the man screams. Derek breathes heavily as he looks at Barry

Derek: the others got away didn’t they...they’re gonna tell Hiram our location

Barry smiles as he shakes his head

Barry: don’t worry....they didn’t get away






The Jeep full of hiram’s Men is shown speeding down the dirt road as the Riverdale wall can be seen in the far distance. Suddenly Alex appears just standing in the road infront of them

?: HIT HIM!

The driver slams on the gas and speeds at alex head on. Alex let’s out a loud berserker roar as the Jeep goes right into him but alex punches the front of the Jeep with his metal fist. The Jeep crunches in on itself from the impact of the metal fist and everyone inside of it goes flying out the windshield. The Jeep lays in a crunched up ball of metal as Alex chuckles as there’s just one soldier that survived and he tried to crawl away leaving a blood trail. Alec chuckles as he walks over and steps on the man’s back

Alex: you’re gonna give Hiram a message for me....but you won’t be alive long enough to see it

The man screams loudly








Hiram’s guards are shown pacing back and forth ontop of the Riverdale wall then suddenly one of them notices something in the snow outside the wall that wasn’t there a few moments ago. The guard blows a whistle and suddenly the entrance to the wall opens and a group of guards and police officers run out of the city limits and approach the object. They all gasp as it’s the severed head of the soldier that Alex killed and on the head is a sign that reads HIRAM LODGE SYMPATHIZER

Jughead is shown walking down a sidewalk in downtown Riverdale. He stops as there’s a wall with signs that say FUCK MARCEL. DEREK HALE IS THE DEVIL. and DEATH TO THE HALE PACK

Jughead frowns but keeps walking as he approaches a large skyscraper. There’s 2 security guards standing outside as Jughead goes to speak but they cut him off

Guard: Mister Lodge is expecting you

Jughead frowns as he walks into the huge lobby and goes to an elevator. He walks inside of it and nervously stands as the elevator ascends.






Hermione Lodge is shown sipping wine as she stands in hiram’s Office and looks at the security tapes, one shows Jughead standing in the elevator as Hermione smirks then walks out the office and to the dining room as Hiram sits at the head of the table sipping wine as Veronica is also sitting down

Hiram: he’s late

Veronica sighs

Hermione: the Wolf sympathizer is arriving now

She sits down and Veronica glares at her mother

Veronica: don’t call him that! He’s not true!

Hiram: relax Veronica...now go let your friend in

Veronica stands up and walks to the front door and opens it as Jughead stands there. She hugs him and whispers

Veronica: you’re like 15 minutes late

Jughead: sorry my dad wanted to have a talk with me. Hows your dad?

She gives him a look and he gulps as he walks into the house and looks at Hermione and Hiram

Jughead: hi...I’m...

Hiram: Jughead Jones...FP’s son.

Jughead shakes hiram’s Hand then walks around the table and kisses Hermione on the cheek before sitting across from Veronica

Hiram: now that our guest is here...let’s bow our heads and say grace before we eat

Jughead looks nervous as they all hold hands then bow their heads





The warehouse district of Riverdale is shown as a large sign reads LODGE ENTERPRISES. Archie is shown crouched down next to the building as he looks at a map. He then has a flashback from being in the basement of the cabin with Jughead and the leaders of the pack. Jughead points to the warehouse district


Jughead: if we want to cripple Hiram this is where we strike first...it’s where he keeps half of his guns, his oil, his drugs and a shit ton of his money...we destroy this place we weaken the serpent. And we let him know that we mean business

Derek nods





Archie takes a deep breath as he sees several armed men patrolling outside of the building. He opens up the backpack Evan gave him and pulls out multiple C-4 charges. Archie crawls around the building as he plants the c4 around every corner






Jughead cuts away at a steak on his plate as Hermione and Veronica also eat. Hiram sips his wine then looks at Jughead

Hiram: so Jughead...I’m sure your father has told you that I’m worried about you

Jughead raises an eyebrow

Jughead: he told me about your accusations

Veronica’s eyes go wide

Hiram: Riverdale is a special place...a special place for working class humans that just want to survive and be safe from the horrors of the outside world. People like Marcel and like the hale pack...they’re not people. They’re worse than the infected that roam the wild...they’re a disease. You see how much pain they’ve caused this town, Marcel waged a war against the witches that caused countless human lives, then he let the Hales in and you see what they did. It took someone to stand up for Riverdale and that someone is me. I’ll be damned if someone else gets killed because of the animalistic behavior of these supernatural beasts

Jughead: I....I thought they were ok. I thought they were okay until the rave until I saw what they did

Hermione clears her throat

Hermione: some people have said that you’re still close with them

Jughead: no one knows where they are...how could they see me with them but not know where they’re hiding out? Like I said they tricked me into believing they were good then at the rave I saw the monsters that they are...I’m lucky to be alive

He takes a deep breath and looks sad but Hermione rubs his hand

Hermione: it’s gonna be okay

Hiram smirks as he rubs jughead’s shoulder

Hiram: we should go out shooting sometime...without the women

Veronica frowns as Jughead nervously agrees







Archie nervously crawls into the warehouse as multiple guards walk around the area. He places a C4 charge on the barrels of oil. Archie sweats as he activates the charge then suddenly he hears a guard scream HEY!

Archie nervously stops what he’s doing as he puts his hands up and all the guards run over and point their guns at him.

Guard: PUT YOUR HANDS ON YOUR FUCKING HEAD! DONT MOVE

Archie: how Can I put my hands on my head and not move?


One of the guards hits Archie across the back of his head with his gun and Archie falls to the ground and cries out as they kick him. He grabs one by the leg and does a wrestling move causing the guard to fall as Archie gets ontop of him then stops as the other guards point their guns at his head. Suddenly a loud growl is heard and the men scream as Evan drops down from the ceiling as he roars and slashes open the throats of 2 guards with his huge black claws. The others 2 run away but Evan shoots two fireballs out the palms of his hands and they strike the guards as they fall and roll around as they’re on fire. The guard Archie is sitting ontop of points his gun at Evan so Archie yells and pulls a knife out and stabs the guard multiple times in the chest. Archie screams like a madman as he keeps stabbing the guard as blood goes everywhere. Evan runs over and pulls Archie off

Evan: ARCHIE!

Archie drops the knife and cries as Evan holds him

Evan: shhhh...I’m here baby...I’m here

Archie holds on tightly to Evan then they here more voices and footsteps approaching in the distance

Evan: we have to go!

Archie grabs his bag and pulls out the detonator

Archie: I got a job to do first






Stefan Is shown standing in the food court of the empty mall as there’s 2 shopping carts infront of him with piles of toys and electronics. Suddenly peter walks over carrying a baseball bat, baseball mitten and a baseball

Stefan: these material things won’t change what people think about you

Peter: I don’t care...all that matters is that they’re happy...even if just for a moment. Now get us home

Suddenly a loud explosion is heard as the entire building shakes and all the windows shatter. Peter grabs onto one shopping cart and stefan’s Hand

Peter: get us home! Now!

Stefan grabs the other shopping cart as they disappear






Jughead is shown standing at the windows of the penthouse looking out at the entire city of Riverdale as Hiram stands next to him

Hiram: all of this is ours Jughead...the new world...a safe world. The new Riverdale

Veronica and Hermione sit on the couch when suddenly a bright flash lights up the whole city followed by a loud explosion as the windows shatter and a fireball rises from the warehouse in the distance. Veronica screams as Jughead and Hiram are knocked to the ground and the windows in the penthouse shatter from the shockwave

Jughead: HOLY SHIT!

Hiram sits up looking furious as the smoke rises up into the sky and sirens can be heard coming from all over the city







Ian is shown opening his eyes as he lays in bed. He sits up as he hears a bunch of voices and cheering coming from downstairs. Ian sits up and sees Theo looking out the window

Ian: hey babe...you ok?

Theo: there’s smoke coming from Riverdale

Ian walks over to Theo and looks out the window as a huge pound of black smoke can be seen rising in the distance

Ian: holy shit

Ian and Theo walk downstairs as everyone is in the living room tearing up presents. Peter Hale stands in the corner smiling

Ian: what the hell?

Derek: merry Christmas

Ian looks confused as stiles unwraps a PlayStation 4. Ella and Lydia try on the different kinds of makeup they got and Jackson and Danny unwrap a bunch of clothes

Ian: how did all of this get here?

Derek: Santa obviously

Ian looks towards the tree as there’s a baseball bat leaning against it with a baseball kitten and a baseball. The bat has a tag on it that says For Ian. Ian walks over to it and grabs the bat as he gasps. He glances over at peter as Ian’s eyes are filled with tears and peter half smiles then walks out as Ian sniffles






It’s morning as Jughead walks into his bedroom as Archie sits on the bed

Jughead: what the fuck was that?!

Archie frowns as Jughead yells

Jughead: it was you wasn’t it? The plan was to break Hiram down from the inside not be terrorist

Archie stands up

Archie: only ones killed were his men. Nobody innocent got hurt THIS is how you topple a dictator

Jughead: you did nothing but make him even more angry.

Archie: anger reveals weakness

Jughead: what’re you gonna do when he sends an army of gunmen into those woods searching for the pack huh? Are you gonna right for them? You’re not a fucking soldier you’re just a kid

?: he’s done more than you have

Jughead looks as Evan walks out the bathroom naked and Jughead gulps

Archie: did you get any intel on Hiram? Or did you just enjoy fancy steak while Veronica gawked all over you?

Jughead frowns

Jughead: my dad told me to make things right

Archie: and Derek said to find something to pin all of those crimes on Hiram! Who’s side are you on?!

Evan starts putting his clothes on as Archie grabs a huge bag from the floor

Jughead: where are you going Archie?

Archie: to stay at the cabin...when you’re ready to actually help them come see us. Until then try to stay out of the crossfire

Archie looks at Jughead then walks out with Evan as Jughead looks down then punches the wall








Veronica walks out of her bedroom and sighs as she sees the broken glass on the ground and can see the smoke rising in the distance. Suddenly someone puts a bag over her head as she screams


Everything goes black until the bag is pulled off of Veronica and she’s tied to a chair in a dark basement as Hiram stands infront of her and Hermione stands to the side

Veronica: what the hell is this?

Hiram: you were just taken against your will...by someone more powerful than you

Hermione: the clock is ticking...no one is coming to save you...your survival depends on you and only you

She paces around her as Veronica breathes heavily

Veronica: THIS ISNT FUNNY! FUCKING PSYCHOS!!!

suddenly Hiram puts a gun up to veronica’s Forehead as she quivers and cries in fear

Hiram: you have 10 seconds to break out of the chair before I pull the trigger and splatter your brains everywhere. 10.....9....

Hermione: he’ll do it Veronica...even to his own daughter

Hiram: 8....7....

Veronica tugs and pulls on the ropes of the chair as she breathes heavily

Hiram: 4...3....

Hermione: better start thinking about all of those moments you’ll never experience my beautiful daughter...never get to get married..never have kids...never even get to graduate

Veronica cries

Hiram: 2.....1....

Veronica kicks her legs on the ground so the chair tips backwards and hits the ground. The wooden chair breaks as she rolls out the way right as Hiram shoots multiple times at her but misses. Veronica screams as she crawls back into the corner and shakes

Hermione: that was good Veronica

Hiram walks over to his daughter and extends his hand. Veronica shakes but grabs his hand and he pulls her up then embraces her in a hug and kisses her on the head

Hiram:shhhhhhh.....I think...I think it’s time to start your training

Ominous music plays as Veronica looks worried but Hiram looks at Hermione and she smirks


To be continued...
