24. My Theory | 26. Prove It

Before heading back to school, I sneak go to see Xavier since I wanted to tell him everything. It wasn't hard to distract the guards and mess with the cameras not to see me. When I get to Xavier, I see him walking around chained to the ground.

"I'm so sorry I couldn't stop Wednesday." I speed walk over to the cell.

"Val, you're going to get caught. What are you doing here?" He walks as close as he can get to me.

"I doubt it. I wanted to see you and tell you everything. I know who the Hyde is. You were kinda right about Tyler being trouble. But at the same time wrong since he has a split personality I saw." I mess with my hands as I talk to him.

"How do you know it's him all of a sudden?"

"Our recent kiss I got a vision when I went to go see him after you got arrested. Kinda wish I got something a long time ago from him so you wouldn't be in here right now. I wish I tried harder to get things..." I start to tear leaning against the cell bars, "I feel stupid deep down."

Xavier reaches out and takes my hand, "Don't feel stupid. You said he has a split personality and if that's 100% true like you saw... you fell for his good side not his Hyde side. Love can make you blind at times."

"I just want you out of here. I told Sheriff Galpin that my friend is an innocent accused of being the killer." Xavier takes my other hand and I get a vision of him back at school giving Wednesday's cell phone before we all leave to go home.

"What did you see?" He asks squeezing my hands.

"Everything is going to be okay soon. I should go before they realize something." I squeeze his hand before getting ready to leave but he stops me.

"Thanks for being a good friend, Valentine. You've come a long way since you got here." I give him a smile shocking my head heading out.

While I was sitting on my bed trying to figure out who Tyler's master is, Wednesday comes into my room. "I'm expelled of course but Xavier made a point when I went to go see him. The thing Rowan told me about me ruining the school... if I'm not here it will never happen. It's possible for you to ruin it too so maybe you should leave with me." She stands at the end of my bed.

She had a point, if I'm a possible reason as well I should leave too, "You're right." I get up to go tell Weems I was going to go home with Wednesday. "Principal Weems..." I walk into her office.

"Valentine, how can I help you?"

"I'm going leave with Wednesday tomorrow. If Rowan's mother was right about us being the reason for Nevermore's demise... It won't happen if we're both gone. Tyler told Wednesday it was coming so I don't want that to happen. I learned to love this school and I do t want to see the end of it." I stand in front of her.

"If that's what you want then you may leave tomorrow with your sister. You are still welcome to join us next year. Nevermore gained an excellent student."

"Xavier was framed Principle Weems. When I kissed Tyler I did see him kill Dr. Kinbott. I wish we had something to prove it other than just my visions." I watch her watch me.

"Sadly we have no proof to say you're right. All the evidence is on Xavier. If you're right about the school then it's good to leave. Hopefully, when it all goes away you can come back." Weems says so I leave her office to pack up to go home tomorrow.

-

The next day I say my goodbyes to everyone sadly because I didn't want to leave. Enid didn't want to let go of me when we were hugging. I even told Bianca I was going to miss our tiffs with each other. I waited with Weems for Wednesday as she says her goodbyes as well.

"I have one final favor. I'd like to visit Eugene before we go to the train station. Enid mentioned he was awake now." Wednesday holds Thornhill's parting gift.

"I can do that." Weems tells us so she takes up to the hospital.

When we get to the hospital Weems talks to Eugene's moms while we go into the room to see him awake playing with a stuffed bee.

"I told you he would be all right." I walk into the room to go give hin a hug.

"Glad to see you finally awake." Wednesday walks closer to his bed.

"I heard you visited all the time."

"Ding ever mention it again." She tells him, "I've been meaning to tell you. I shouldn't have gone to the dance. I should have been with you.

"When the dance floor calls, you gotta answer. Plus you went to keep an eye on Val. It's not your fault. It's the monster's."

"It's actually called a Hyde. It's still out there. Eugene, you can't go back to Nevermore. Not even to check on your bees. You have to listen this time to an Addams. Us hummers stick together, remember." I tell him.

"That night in the woods, someone set fire to that cave."

"Yes, Dr. Kinbott." Wednesday says quickly.

"It's not her." I huff.

"I don't really remember any of it. I just saw someone wearing black and those boots." He says making me think while Wednesday asks what about them. "There was an explosion of light and just for a moment, I saw that they weren't black." He says and the light goes off in my head.

"Red... They were red weren't they?"

"Yeah. How did you know?" He looks at me confused.

"Because Tyler said Red when I asked about his master. Principal Weems!" I rush out of the room to her in the hall.

"Valentine?"

"I know who the Hyde's master is... It's Ms. Thornhill. Eugene said when someone set the cave on fire there was a flash of light and he saw red boots. I only know one person who wears red boots all the time. Plus when I asked Tyler about his master he just said the color red. She's really Laurel Gates." I explain to her pulling her way from Eugene's moms.

"To get her to confess to it we need you to shape-shift into Tyler and pretend he told us everything. Have faith in me for once." Wednesday walks over to us.

Weems looks at us before agreeing to do so, "This better work Addams."

-

Back at school, we go to Thornhill to call her out on the truth. We startle her while she was working, "Wednesday, Valentine. I thought you'd be halfway to New Jersey by now." She turns to us.

"You can drink the act, Laurel. I should have known it was you. Faking your death, securing your job at Nevermore, unlocking a Hyde. Technically, I have great admiration for well-executed revenge plots. But you're was a bit extreme, even for my high standards." Wednesday tells her.

"Oh, dear. Weems was right. You do need psychiatric help. Can't throw out wild accusations without consequences." Thornhill walks to another table.

"You're right because of her past actions... but this time they're true. Tyler told me everything." I make eye contact with her before turning to Weems coming in as Tyler.

"Initially I incorrectly accused Kinbott of using hypnosis to unlock him but Val never seemed to agree. But you used a plant-derived chemical, didn't you?" Wednesday tells her.

"Your father kept tabs on all the outcasts in town. So I assume he told you about the Galpin family secret when you were just a girl. That's why you targeted Tyler. You manipulated him by showing him what his mother truly was. What Tyler didn't realize is that truth wouldn't free him. It would enslave him to you. You used the cave and the shackles to force him until he willingly became your servant. When Kinbott came close to discovering the truth, you had Tyler kill her and pin it in Xavier. I should have known it was you on Outreach Day... the looks you were giving him while he was working and you sat in your booth. He's a victim because of you." I walk closer to her pissed off.

"Ugh. That's enough. Tyler, honey, make Mama happy and shut these girls up. Permanently." Thornhill takes her glasses off.

"He's not on your side." Wednesday tells her.

"Tyler will do anything for me." She walks over to him, "Remember what I told you? I should you who you really are. What they did to your mother... The outcast made you a monster." She cups Weems face and I get sick thinking about how she groomed Tyler.

"If you only hate outcasts, why is he killing normies as well?"

"They're just pawns in a bigger game. Just like you, Wednesday. Hell, even you Valentine because if Wednesday wasn't her and you stayed... Once again, you've underestimated the situation. Just to make sure this would work, you were never getting on that train. I sent Tyler to intercept you." Thornhill smiles at us.

"We never made it to the station. Heard enough?" I look over at Weems so she goes back to herself.

"Your slave is probably still at the station."

"Don't make this more difficult than it already is, Marilyn." Weems says pissing her off.

"My name is Laurel!" She injects Nightshade Poisoning into Weems neck causing us to rush over to her but there was nothing we could do to help her.

Betrayal, part 2 of "Deadly Sins" {Marilyn Thornhill}

Huge spoilers of episode 8! So pls dont read if you havent finished Wednesday!

(I apologize if the beginning sounds rushed, Im just explaining what they already had done so far!)

TW: blood, wounds, death

Third PoV: Things that had already happened

Wednesday had been shocked when Sky told her, that Tyler was the monster, the Hyde. She had explained to her, why Tyler could only be it, and Wednesday believed her. She noticed his odd behavior as well.

So, after the Rave'N, they had made a plan. A plan, where nothing could go wrong.

Wednesday had met with Tyler in the Weathervane to talk. His aura was weird, he was acting completely strange. Enid and Sky had sat in Ophelia Hall, waiting for Wednesday to return. Once the girl came back, she told them everything. Tyler had kissed Wednesday, and she had a vision. A vision about Tyler being the Hyde, as they already knew, and killing Dr. Kinbott. She left the Weathervane immediately, getting back to the Academy as soon as possible.

They decided, together with the Nightshades, that Wednesday should meet with Tyler in the forest, to talk about what happened after the kiss.

And thats what they did. The Nightshades, including Sky, and Wednesday got Tyler and brought him to Xaviers shed. They interrogated him about being the Hyde, of course he denied all those accusations. Wednesday had gotten out her torturing tools, to make the Hyde come out. The Nightshades felt a little weird, and reported all that to Weems. After all, shes the principal. She should know about it.

The police came into the shed shortly after, preventing Wednesday from truly hurting Tyler. The sheriff, Tylers dad, was shocked to see Wednesday and his tied up son. Wednesday got taken to the police station, and they talked to her about all that. Tyler had also quickly talked to her before she left, asking her how it felt to loose. Obviously, she had been in a fucked up mood all the time, an dthen the worst happened. Weems threw her out of Nevermore.

Sky and Enid sat with Wednesday while she packed her things. Wednesday got informed, that Eugene was awake, and that they could perhaps stop by the hospital to visit him. Wednesday seemed happy about the fact, that her friend was awake and she looked forward to seeing him before she had to leave.

Present

Sky was in her dorm, talking to Bianca about this and that. Normally, Sky would be with Marilyn at those times, because she was really sad that Wednesday had to leave Nevermore. But Marilyn had told her, that tonight she had a lot of important things to prepare her lesson tomorrow. She said shed make her lesson very exciting, with a few new and deadly plants. Sky understood that, and so she stayed with Bianca. Her and I were playing a game, when suddenly Enid barged in, seemingly panicked.

Small Enid PoV

I was in my room with Ajax. He was my best friend, and I talked to him so much about Wednesday, especially now because she was gone. (Yes, i love ajax, but yes, i love wenclair more so you get this) Ophelia Hall felt so empty without Wednesdays type writer noises, or my "talks" with Thing.

"I miss her, you know? I didnt think id feel like this towards Nes when I first met her. Everyone is scared by her, but why not me? She makes me feel all tingly and bubbly inside and argh oh my god" I was frustrated by my own feelings and screamed into my pillow. I just heard Ajax laugh behind me and turned around, asking why he is laughing. "Enid, my dear Enid. Everyone at Nevermore knows, that you are in love with Wednesday Addams. Hell, even Weems noticed! The way you look at each other, its so obvious. Also, youre the only one she lets get close to herself. You made her smile and that is something nobody is capable of doing!" Ajax laughs, making me blush. "Whaaat ? Me?? You think she likes me back? Maybe I should talk to her, maybe I shou-" I got interrupted by the door opening. It was Thing.

"Thing, what are you doing here???" I asked, shocked.

Thing jumped on my bed, making wild movements with his fingers, explaining something to me. "Wait wait, slow down, i cant understand you" I said, making Thing explain it slower. "Principal Weems??" I asked in shock. "What about Wednesday??" Thing started moving again, telling me what happened. "Tyler and Thornhill took her? Where?" Thing showed me something. "Crackstones Crypt? What the heck? And who are the Nightshades?" I asked and Thing pointed to Ajax.

Ajax explained a bit on the way, we had to get my sister, Sky, and of course Bianca. (small info: By now Enid knows that Thornhill and Sky are together)

Third PoV

Skys and Biancas Dorm door burst open, revealing a panicked Enid and a confused Ajax. "You both need to come with us, right now!" Enid said. Sky didnt question it, and grabbed Biancas hand. They rushed to the secret library, having Enid explain the situation. Knowing about Sky and Thornhill, she left out the fact until Sky went outside. Sky went out because she needed fresh air. In that time, Enid quickly told the Nightshades. Bianca looked somehow hurt and disappointed. Could you blame her? Her best friends girlfriend was betraying her.

The students agreed on using their siren spells on the other students so neither Tyler nor Thornhill would notice.

Enid was scared for Wednesday, because she didnt know what Thornhills plan was and what she would do to Nes. "Everything will be alright, Enid, we will save Wednesday and you will be with her sooner than you can think of. Now come on, we need to search for her." Sky told her sister, grabbing her arm. Thing, who was on Enids shoulder, grabbed the fabric of her coat so he wouldnt fall off.

It got darker by time, slowly but surely. It wasnt night, but it was dark enough now. Enid and Sky reached the forest and kept going, until Enid fell a bit behind. Sky heard a small whimper from her sister, making her turn around. "Sky, Thing, I think im.. arghh.. wolfing out.. omg.. urghh" Enid groaned, her body slowly turning into the familiar form of a werewolf. "Im so proud of you, Enid!" Sky said, before approaching her sister, also wolfing out. In case thered be danger, they would be able to defend themselves.

They reached further into the forest, seeing two people stand in front of each other. Wednesday and Tyler. Thats when they noticed Tyler slowly turning himself into the Hyde. Yet, before he could hurt Wednesday, Enid sprinted forward, pushing Tyler away from Wednesday. Sky ran to Wednesday, sniffing on her cautiously. "Is it.. Enid?" the girl asked, Enid looking at her. Wednesday had to smile and then turned to Sky "Thank you, Sky. Go help your sister, Tyler is strong. Ill go to Nevermore" Sky nodded, before she turned around, attacking Tyler as well.

It seemed he had gotten stronger over the time, and although it was two against one, he still managed to hurt both of them. Sky threw herself n front of Enid a couple of times, not wanting her sister to get hurt. They fought against Tyler, hurting him pretty badly as well with their teeth and claws.

Meanwhile Wednesday was at Nevermore, fighting against Crackstone. Thornhill had brought him back, and now it was Wednesdays destiny to save the academy and the Outcasts. Wednesday had gotten a sword, ready to fight and kill him for ever. Thats when Xavier appeared, ready to shoot Crackstone. The evil one made the arrow turn around in the air tho, shooting it back. Before it could reach Xavier, Wednesday jumped in front of it, the arrow ending up in her shoulder.

While Wednesday continued fighting against Crackstone, Enid and Sky were still not finished with Tyler. Enid landed good hits, making the Hyde screech in pain. Sky felt so proud of her sister, for a moment too long, looking at her. Tyler sensed that she was distracted, scratching her back roughly with his claws, sending her flying into the next trees. Sky howled in pain, even hearing some cracks. She was sure, she broke a few ribs and she felt the blood literally flodding her fur. Her body shuddered with pain. Enid, seeing what Tyler did to her big sister for a second time, got more angry than before, attacking him with all the rage she had in herself. She didnt like it when people hurt the ones she loved and she would make Tyler regret his actions.

Sky gathered her strength, seeing that Enid was able to handle the already bruised Hyde, an dgot back to Nevermore as fast as she could with her wounds. She heard screams and the clanging of a.. sword? Sky slowly transformed back into her human form, getting some clothes she had hidden behind a bush in case shed need them. Her whole body hurt, the bleeding still not stopping. She lost a lot of blood and breathing wasnt easy due to her injured ribs.

She went to the schoolyard, seeing a zombie like man who fought against the Addams girl. Sky sneaked to the closest pillar, sinking down onto the floor. She watched the fight, how the man, apparently Crackstone, destroyed the sword, coming closer to Wednesday with his.. staff(rod, idk man). Sky got up, immediately falling to the ground, groaning in pain. Sky kept looking at the scene, knowing this man would kill her friend.

But then, someone pierced a piece of the sword through Crackstones back. It was Bianca. She helped Wednesday, and Nes got another piece of the sword, piercing it right through Crackstones heart. He screamed in pain before he exploded into black dust.

They defeated the enemy. Or so they thought.

Skys gaze glued onto Bianca and Wednesday, she didnt hear this one person coming in.

"Oh Wednesday.. you have ruined my plans from the very start.." Thornhill said with a pout. Skys eyes welled up with tears, seeing her lover like this. A gun in the hand, pointing it towards Wednesday Addams. Bianca spotted Sky, her eyes widening as she saw her best friends state. Sky clutched onto her chest, bleeding everywhere. She muffled her sobs as Marilyn spoke to Wednesday, getting ready to shoot her.

"I might not get to kill all the Outcasts, but at least I get to kill you" Marilyn says, before Sky lunged forward with the last of her strength left, pushing her Lover to the side and making the gun go off and releasing the shot.

Sky yelps in pain, falling onto the ground, right next to Marilyn.

"No!" Marilyn screamed as she saw her girlfriend. Time seemed to go in slow motion, blood was pouring from the shot wound in Skys chest, making her weaker and weaker.

Marilyn pulled Sky into her lap, crying. Normally Sky wouldve scooted away. Marilyn was the villain in this story. She betrayed her. She broke her heart, ripped it out and stepped on it. "My love, stay with me, we can fix this. Honey i never wanted to hurt you. I never wouldve dared to let Crackstone hurt you. Never would I have let anyone touch you. When Tyler hurt you like that, I swore I would kill him if he did it again. Please, you have to stay with me Baby, keep your eyes open. Look at me my love, please" Marilyn begged. And Sky did. Her skin cold, face pale, she turned her head, looking right into those hazel eyes. "You.. betr..ayed me" Sky coughed out, blood leaving her blue lips. "Sky please, we can fix you, help is on the way, stay with me baby, please" Mari sobbed. She never wanted to hurt Sky. She never wouldve let anyone close to Sky, she should have protected Sky. But Skys heart was too big, sacrificing her life for the life of her friends. "Please, im begging you.." Thornhill kept crying, holding Skys cold face in her hands. "I love you, Sky, so much" Mari whispered, before placing a kiss on Skys ice cold lips.

"I love you too, Mari" Sky whispered out, before the life faded from her eyes.

It was as if it was just Sky and Marilyn in this moment. Wednesday and Bianca stood by the side, holding Eugene back. He had come with his bees to defeat Marilyn, or rather, Laurel Gates. But this right now? It caused Thornhill more pain than any bee sting could ever. So they let her be. Not forever, of course. But due to this, you see that she truly loved Sky, although she was an outcast.

"I will miss her.." Eugene whispered. Bianca wiped her tears away. Her best friend died in the arms of the love of her life. Even Wednesday had glassy eyes. Shed been good friends with Sky, and Sky was also Enids sister.

Marilyn held Skys body close to herself, hugging the lifeless shell of her girlfriend. Yes, she had hated the Outcasts, but Sky showed her, that they could be so much more. She was forced to fullfill what her family had started, she felt forced, as if shed be haunted by the ghosts of her family forever if she didnt. And it was the biggest mistake of her life.

A while later

Marilyn was still sitting like this with Sky.

Wednesday, Bianca, Eugene and Xavier, who joined them, made their way into the forest, where the other students were.

"Wheres Wednesday??" Enid asked everyone, they just shrugged because they hadnt seen her so far. Enid became more scared, afraid something happened to Nes. She made her way through the people. revealing a small group of.. 4? It should be 5.. shouldnt it?

Enid yelled "Wednesday!" and freed herself from the helping grip of Ajax, running to the girl she loved, hugging her. At first, Wednesday rejected the hug, and looked at Enid. Then she wrapped her arms around the werewolf girl, hugging her tightly.

"I thought Id loose you" Enid cried, looking at Wednesday. "You didnt, im still here" Wednesday smiled very slightly.

"You saved Nevermore! But.. wheres, wheres Sky?" Enid said, looking around for her sister.

"Sky??" Eid said, concerned. Then she looked at Wednesday and Bianca, whose gazes said everything. "No.. that.. Nes please dont tell me.." Enid teared up once again.

[stormofstarlight]

Ok I just finished watching Wednesday so I'm gonna put my rambling thoughts under the cut

MAJOR SPOILERS for the show

First I've gotta put my thoughts on Tyler. Ngl I wasn't the biggest fan of the love triangle for aroace reasons and also it was just kinda cliché and boring, but Tyler seemed like a nice enough and he seemed to genuinely care about Wednesday. Needless to say, the reveal took me by surprise, although as soon as Wednesday had the vision it all started to add up because Tyler had very much been there for every one of the murders. Honestly, I thought that twist was pretty well done.

I actually did!!! Figure out about Miss Thornhill!!! Not for any particular reason, but I know that in murder mysteries, the murderer is usually a side character (who has a good relationship with the protagonist to throw the viewer off) and she was one of the characters who seemed to fit the role best. And then the thing about Laurel was revealed, which also fit perfectly. By that logic, my suspect list pretty much consisted of her and Dr Kinbott.

Xavier was an obvious red herring. I did think it was a little funny that Wednesday accused him because he knew what the monster looked like and had been at the scenes of all the murders. My girl, those things are all true about you as well.

On the subject of Xavier, I didn't actually mind him as a character. He was mostly decent, but he was a dick to Bianca and I liked her. He also seemed had a more genuine connection to Wednesday than Tyler did from the start because they'd already met that one time at that funeral. Not sure how I feel abt him as a love interest, but he's always been on Wednesday's side so he could be a good friend to her at least.

I absolutely adore Enid, she's v fun and a great friend to Wednesday. And they even hugged in the end!! And I just! Love how much they love each other, even platonically. Obviously I'd prefer it if they ended up together, but I do adore them as a friendship as well XD

I also loved Enid's wolf form!! I'm always a bit apprehensive when characters shapeshift at all, especially if it's cgi etc. But I thought the design suited her really well!!

Actually going back to Wednesday and Enid bc I lov them, I think Enid is the character who Wednesday's relationship has had the most development with throughout the series. Does that mean she should be the love interest? Who's to say....

That's all for tonight bc I'm gonna go to sleep, I just wanted to write this out.

[graveyard0fhopes]

In defense of Wyler.

1. Shipping Wyler makes sense because Wednesday is emotionally invested in Tyler. Now, before you all come at me for pointing canon moments, i want you to at least acknowledge that the canon is how the writer intended Wednesday series to go and dismissing canon means you're just trying to take a ship down for your own purpose. Shipping wednesday with others is fine, but when you post an argument how other ship won't work? You're actively poking/attacking a ship at that point.

Canon reasons why I personally ship Wyler

She could have refused when Tyler came for the dance, but her first reaction was panicking and going to the wardrobe, looking for a dress. It was Wednesday. I thought she would dismiss Tyler for her plans but she didn't. It was interesting.

"So who is it?" (Hesitates) "Xavier." "Got it." "I don't see why you're upset" .... "I thought we liked each other. Am i in the more-than-friend zone or just a pawn in a game you're playing?" "I'm just dealing with a lot right now. I need to prioritize." She didn't outright deny him. She paid attention that he was upset, and she initiated a question about it. She cares, is what i mean.

"You keep giving me these signals." I know, he was pushing it. But let's remember she gave him a number to call. Isn't it like the flirting culture in the US to give someone a number? He of course knew it was just so Wednesday could use him, but it works either way. Wednesday also came to Weathervane multiple times to ask for info. Let's not kid ourself, teenage boys are flattered when girls seek their company and ask them things. It could be seen as a signal.

Dark bonding moments. "Did you think i was going to judge you? I would've taken it further." "Like pitting piranhas in a swimming pool?" "I'd do it again." "I know there was a reason i like you." *proceded to dance with him, which, she didn't need to, but she did.*

She doesn't want a birthday party, guys. She wants to investigate a creepy old house with Tyler and Enid. She could have find a way by her own, like before, but she didn't she manipulated them both so they couldn't say no.

She came back for Tyler when the hyde showed up at the old house. I know it's basic decency after putting their life in danger, but sunshine Enid didn't even remember about Tyler. Wednesday remembered, and she really was willing to face the hyde to save Tyler and that was proven.

Visiting Weathervane with uncle fester. No one made her do it, it was purely her own will to keep coming back to where Tyler works.

The date, or how Wednesday put it, "Quid pro quo." (Which is the episode's title ;) ) "That was torture. Thank you."

She leaned in for the kiss guys. Come on, if she's not interested she wouldn't.

She came to Tyler after putting Xavier in the prison. I mean, she didn't have to, but she did. Why came to tyler? The mystery was over for her, Kinbott was dead, and the monster was captured, she didn't need Tyler's help anymore. But she came back. With the mystery closed, Tyler went up to her number 1 priority. That was saying something.

She was obsessed with the mystery, she had it in mind that Xavier was the killer. Across the episodes, you could see her rationally built up evidence for xavier. But one vision after a kiss and boom, she went straight for torture. You can't say she's not emotionally invested with Tyler. His betrayal sparked a wrath.

At the first confrontation with thornhill, we saw Wednesday's thought on Tyler's situation. It was not us who decides that Tyler was originally manipulated. It was Wednesday. "That's why you targeted Tyler. You manipulated him by showing him what his mother truly was. What Tyler didn't realize is that truth wouldn't free him. It would enslave him to you. That was scary at first, so you used the cave and the shackles. ( chains rattling ) But eventually he willingly became your servant. And when Kinbott came close to discovering the truth, you had Tyler kill her and pin it on Xavier." Even then, Wednesday put the blame on Thornhill above all else.

Tyler was integral in Wednesday's character development. First, she opens up to him. Second, she realizes that even someone as emotionally distant as her can get blinded by her emotions. That's right, emotions. Because Wednesday liked Tyler, and that blinded her from seeing the truth all along. I myself didn't expect Tyler as the monster in the beginning, but after the date and the journal got missing, it was a red sign from me and i was prepared for a heartbreak after that. Wednesday could have seen that Tyler was always there as well when the monster appeared, but no, she didn't see Tyler as a potential murderer because Tyler was by her side, and Xavier was the only one who was hovering at the background so she finger pointed at the poor guy.

This reason, of how Wednesday was emotionally invested with Tyler, is my main reason for shipping Wyler because Wednesday doesn't feel much, but when she does, she feels it deeply. Exhibit a, Nero the scorpion. Even after years, she still hasn't get over its death. And that opens up to a possibility: even after getting betrayed, her feelings for Tyler won't be easily over. In fact, it will only get deeper, with more colors.

2. Now, moving on to my second reason, Tyler's potentials.

He is a monster. Not squeamish with blood and gore. That's addams family material, right there.

He's not 'a boring white boy', like many people accused him first. I saw many people hating him because of that, but then they also hate him for having depth and being the monster at the end. I mean, doesn't being the monster and being smart enough to play wednesday's emotion make him so much interesting?

So many potential with him actually liking Wednesday in the process of manipulating her. Because his first meeting was not, in any way, manipulated by his master. And he called her "grim reaper barbie." That's a bit cute, in my opinion. He thinks she's a pretty, morbid girl. There are many canon moments that i think has a bit genuineness from his part, but as we are not cannonically shown his point of view, i won't put it here.

Refering to the coffee machine as 'temperamental beast' and 'monster', and Wednesday ended up taming it. (I saw a post pointing this out, so credit to them!)

He is shown transforming at the end, so there is hope that he got away from the police. There is hope that he will return in the second season, so it's not 'illogical' for some people to hope that he will have some character development in the second season.

I'm all for having tom and jerry dynamic between wyler.

He didn't kill Eugene. HE DIDN'T KILL EUGENE. For a monster that can tear apart limbs, he will have to be very careful in not killing him. It's a redemption opportunity, i suppose. We are not shown his point of view at this moment, so the writer can easily write it in the next season. It's a hope for wyler, but then people doesn't need canon for theorizing his reasons, so wyler shippers are not 'sick in the mind' for delving deep into it. You can do your own ship, but please don't judge others if they are interested in something you don't like.

3. I ship wyler because i don't care what others think. I know what i like. It's just a fiction that i watched. For me, there's no point in bringing activism in a fandom, as i'm not a US citizen and sexuality is not a topic i like to bring up over and over all the time. So what if Wyler is straight? You see a girl liking rainbow colors and decided that she's gay, and her new bestfriend is her repressed lover. Okay. You do you. But don't judge others because they like straight ships. I like tododeku-bakudeku just fine, but i like wyler as well. It's okay.

And toxicity is a term so over-used and i'm quite tired of hearing it in a fandom for a fiction work. Xavier called her toxic (at the prison scene) but it was he who keep coming back to wednesday. She is, from the very beginning, maintaining distance with the guy except for when she tries to milk some info. She never ask him for help otherwise. Yes, people get hurt when they involve themselves with Wednesday but that's because she is trying to solve a literal murder cases, so of course it won't be full of rainbows. The only one who has sense in their action of keep coming back to wednesday is Tyler, because he has his own reasons. Now, you can say Tyler is toxic, but really, he's doing what was told by his master and we haven't seem his pov yet, so the level of toxicity is undecided. Who knows? Maybe there is a genuine like, so his manipulation isn't just intended for bad things. With that said, i don't mind if it have some toxicity in it. It's just fiction. And if you're saying he's toxic because he's a murderer, let me remind you that this is the Addams family. Her uncle ate a girlscout. She unleashed piranhas to avenge her brother. The only reason why Wednesday was upset of his father being accused of murder is because she didn't believe that he did it, and for the addams to be imprisoned for a murder they didn't commit is an insult, at least do the deed if you went to prison for it. Wednesday said it herself, it was terrible for having an 'attempted murder' record. People would know she failed.

And those who says 'wednesday doesn't need boys to be independent and strong', i agree with you. But are you saying that women can't be strong and independent with a lover by their side? Because if you are, Morticia addams will gut you. Don't mistake your opinion for activisim if you don't see the whole picture.

Do not discount Wednesday's feelings, or thoughts, or decision. Discounting Wednesday's autonomy and her feelings are just bad feminism. So what if Wednesday wants to feel a bit of romance? So what if she wants to celebrate finally solving a case with kissing the boy she likes? So what if she dances with him, asks him to drive her, or asking him about the town she is completely new in? Are you saying poor Wednesday doesn't know what her doing, that she was manipulated all along by the big bad tyler? Is she not also using him for her own purposes?

I agree that it will be hard for Wednesday to forgive him after Thing, Eugene, and Enid. But they all are safe at the end, and as I pointed out, Wednesday is emotionally invested in Tyler. Plus, Wednesday said so herself, Tyler is her type. There is hope for more confrontation, more for dynamic development between the two of them. This is why i ship wyler.

(And fear is a roleplay for Morticia and Gomez, so who's to say Wednesday was not into that shit as well?)

That said, I hope that Tyler will return, and that we will see more of his story, but it's really up to the writers. I will stick with my ship and hopes that whatever they decided is for the best of Wednesday.

I personally try to get every ship, even If I ship Wenclair. For instance I get the Wednesday and Xavier ship, but I just can't understand the Wednesday/Tyler shippers. Like the guy tried to kill her friends and lead her away so Thing can be attacked. I don't see Wednesday forgiving that even if he has a tragic backstory.

"Don't you usually come in here after the session?" Tyler asks as I walk in. 

"I want a drink for the session." I walk up to him so he makes my hot chocolate then takes my money this time. 

"My dad said a bear apparently killed a woman last night. I over heard it was bad."

"I've been in those woods many of times and never seen anything that shows bears around. And I've hibernated with Grizzly's. I know signs of bears." I take my cup from him. 

"You keep surprising me with new bazar facts about yourself every time we talk." He tilts his head smiling. 

"Gotta keep you on your toes."

"Just be careful out there." He tells me so I time to face him at the door, 

"Where's the fun in that?" I give him a little smile leaving.

-

"Miss Addams." Kinbott smiles as I come in taking a seat. 

"What shall we discuss today?" I ask taking a sip of my drink. 

"How about your relationships at school. Staff and students." She takes her seat as I yawn tired. I barely got sleep having a nightmare about some ugly monster. 

"Fine by me." I yawn again. 

"Didn't sleep well?" She asks me. 

"Nightmare. Well, nightmares aren't really nightmares to me like to others. Just had this monster in it. Now my relationships?" I motion for her to go on. 

"How many friends do you have?" She crosses her legs. 

"Six; Yoko, Enid, Xavier, Tyler, Ajax, and Eugene. I don't count Rowan, Divina or Kent as friends but I talk to them at times. Then Bianca is a frenemy. We're very competitive against each other." I explain to her.

"And the faculty?" She asks. 

"Principal Weems cares about the school very much. She's nice but you can tell sometimes it's an act. I've noticed she compares me to my mother a lot in a sweet sour tone. Which lets me know she has something against my mother. I'm not close to any of the teachers. Ms. Thornhill is a good teacher. Tries to connect with the students. I like her but sometimes she seems too nice. I feel like she hides something behind that smile." I put my cup on the table next to me.

"How's your friendship with Tyler? Since you only see him when you come into town? Is it the least connection compared to who you see everyday at school?" She sits up more. 

"No, I would say it's the strongest actually. We have similar things we can relate to and talk about. You seeing him as a court order as well, you know what I mean. There's just something about him that draws me to him. There's more to him than he shows which makes me interested. I want to get to know the whole Tyler...both sides of him."

"You've had a boyfriend so you know what's it like to like someone in a romantic way. Do you feel that for him as well?" She asks making me blink at her, 

"No." I feel my heart kinda skip a beat which I hated. "As I told Xavier yesterday, You have to prove you're worth my time. And it takes a lot to melt my semi ice cold heart." I tell her as she watches me closely. 

"Why did you have to tell him that? Does he like you more than just a friend?" She makes me laugh, 

"He was telling me his ex things there was something between us. I told him I see him as a friend and I don't date."

"You think perhaps he might developed feelings for you? Or maybe Tyler as well with you? They're the two boys you're closest to." She makes me laugh, 

"I don't know why they would. I'm not exactly people's type." I take another sip. 

"They might see something in you that you don't see in yourself." She sits back some. 

"That would be odd since I know myself very well." I look away from her. 

"Can you see yourself falling for one of them? Or both?" 

She makes me close my eyes to imagine me with both. I reopen my eyes to see her waiting for a response, "No." I lie to her. 

"Remember everything we say stays in here. There's no need to lie. Today is about relationships."

"I never imagine with Xavier but closing my eyes and actually picturing... did. Tyler lately has been making me melt inside some when he smiles. Hell, Xavier's smile too." I rub my face annoyed with these feelings, "Why can't I be more like my sister in the department of feelings?" I groan. 

"Your sister doesn't do feelings for people?" Kinbott asks. 

"Hell, no. Not even 100% with family. She's very true to her words. Won't fall in love, won't get married and have a family. She refuses to be like our mother." I lean back in my seat. 

"Do you want all that? Love, Marriage, Family?"

"Unlike my sister yes but it's hard to find someone can put up with me, that can handle me, that can match my energy, or at least add to it. Won't judge me for things either." I explain to her feelings a bit defeated. 

"Valentine, I'm sure there is someone out there that will be perfect for you. Look, you finally found a school that understands you and you've made friends easily. You even have a therapist that has cracked yet." She smiles, "So believe me when I say there's someone out there for you. Maybe you already met them and don't fully realize it yet." She tells me and we end our session early.

-

I walk to the Weathervane thinking about what Dr. Kinbott told me about finding someone. I mean she was right about the school, friends, even herself. Was I turning even more softer being here? Nevermore was really changing me as a person. I was so in my head I just take a seat at a booth and pull out the sketch book Xavier gave me. While being in my own little world I didn't notice Tyler brought me a drink and snack. I guess he realized so he didn't try talking to me.

"You know if you wait any longer that hot chocolate will be room temperature chocolate." Tyler finally snaps me back to this world. 

"Sorry." I put my sketchbook down. 

"Your session ended early today." He takes a seat across from me. 

"Yeah." I drink my drink. 

"What was today about?"

"Relationships at school. Students and faculty. My friendship with you. Is it considered one of the weakest since I only see you when I come to town compared to people at school." I add. 

"And you said?" He waits. 

"I would say it's the strongest actually. We have similar things we can relate to and talk about. There's just something about you that draws me to you. There's more to you than you shows which makes me interested. I want to get to know the whole you...both sides of you."

"There's something about you too, Valentine. You're a very interesting person and when I say that I mean it. I'd like to know the tad unique psychotic side and the unique soft side of you." He gives me a smile. 

"That's the nicest thing someone has ever said to me." I smile back. 

"I gotta get back to work. How long are you staying today?" He gets out of the booth. 

"When I feel like walking back. I walked here today because Weems was busy." I tell him going back to my drawing. 

"I could give you a ride when I get off? I don't work long today." He suggested. 

  "Sure." I answer making him smile as he goes back to work.

The entire time till Tyler got off I just drew him working putting in a lot of detail in the background and him. "Okay, and I'm done for the day." He sits across from me. 

"Me too." I show him what I drew. 

"Wow. That's amazing, Valentine. You never mentioned you're an artists." He looks at it closer. 

"Half of my work is really gruesome so I normally don't go around showing it because people don't see the art like I do." I close up my book. 

"I'd like to see it sometime. I think I can handle it with my dad being the sheriff. I saw the crime scene photos from the bear attack this morning. You probably would've liked it." He chuckles. 

"Maybe." I agree.

"Okay, you ready to go?" He asks so I get out and we head to the door. 

"I want you headed home." His dad shows up. 

"I will after I give Valentine a ride back to Nevermore." He says so the sheriff eyes me. 

I've never had a conversation with the sheriff but I knew he was Tyler's father. "Sheriff." I give him a head nod. 

"She's a friend?" He asks his son ignoring me. 

"Yes, I am." I answer for Tyler. 

"Dad, I'll go straight home after dropping her off. I don't want her walking back alone after someone was killed by a bear, that hasn't been caught." Tyler says as his dad looks at me. 

"Unless you want another body in the morgue, I'm fine walking back to school. It would be a good way to go out. I can imagine how it would feel and the horrific screams I would be letting out as it's claws rip into my flesh and it's tear pulling apart my body." The sheriff just stares at me while Tyler tries not to laugh.

"Home right after." He points at his son. 

"Got it." Tyler nods his head. 

"Nice meeting you, sheriff." I wave following Tyler out.

"The look on his face when you started describing your death to him." Tyler laughs as we walk to his car. 

"I could have gone dark." I say as he opens the passenger door for me. 

"Oh, I bet." He says as I get in then goes around to his side. 

"I appreciate this even though you don't have to." I look over at him as he drives. 

"We get to spend a little more time together." He glances over at me. 

"Since I started at Nevermore and we first met, have you seen a change in me?" I ask him wanting to know his view on me. 

"I've seen you have some character development. You're not as cold as you first were but you still can be. Why are you asking?" He tells me.

"In my session today... Dr. Kinbott asked me do I ever see myself in love, marriage, having a family. I said unlike my sister yes but it's hard to find someone can put up with me, that can handle me, that can match my energy, or at least add to it. Won't judge me for things either. And she said she's sure there's someone out there that will be perfect for me. Since I finally found a school that understands me and I've made friends easily. I have a therapist that has cracked yet. So that got me thinking since she was right about everything she said... Am I turning even more softer being here? Is Nevermore really changing me as a person."

"Maybe going to Nevermore has changed you a little or just helped you become a better you without realizing it. You finally find where you belong and feel comfortable being yourself without being judged. Like you found a second home and family... I wish something like that can happen to me. I hate being stuck here. My relationship with my father has been distant since my mother passed. He never wants to talk about her which makes me think he never loved her. I have no other friends. I dropped the only friends I had because that reminds me of the me I don't want to be and they wouldn't be any help to change. Sorry, I made this all about me." Tyler stops his rambling.

"No, it's fine. Remember I said I wanted to know the whole you and that means you thoughts and feelings. But you're right about me finding a second home and family at Nevermore... And having not friends isn't that bad, I never had any before coming here. Like Kinbott told me about people, things, and places for you... I'm sure you'll find whatever that makes you feel better and at home. I can't help you with the whole relationship with your father but I am a hell of a loyal friend." I say as we pull up to Nevermore. 

"You're the only person besides a therapist that listens to me. Thank you."

"Welcome, and never tell anyone I was this caring and open to you or you'll regret it." I give him a glare.

"Cross my heart." He laughs.

Betrayal, part 2 of "Deadly Sins" {Marilyn Thornhill}

Huge spoilers of episode 8! So pls dont read if you havent finished Wednesday!

(I apologize if the beginning sounds rushed, Im just explaining what they already had done so far!)

TW: blood, wounds, death

Third PoV: Things that had already happened

Wednesday had been shocked when Sky told her, that Tyler was the monster, the Hyde. She had explained to her, why Tyler could only be it, and Wednesday believed her. She noticed his odd behavior as well.

So, after the Rave'N, they had made a plan. A plan, where nothing could go wrong.

Wednesday had met with Tyler in the Weathervane to talk. His aura was weird, he was acting completely strange. Enid and Sky had sat in Ophelia Hall, waiting for Wednesday to return. Once the girl came back, she told them everything. Tyler had kissed Wednesday, and she had a vision. A vision about Tyler being the Hyde, as they already knew, and killing Dr. Kinbott. She left the Weathervane immediately, getting back to the Academy as soon as possible.

They decided, together with the Nightshades, that Wednesday should meet with Tyler in the forest, to talk about what happened after the kiss.

And thats what they did. The Nightshades, including Sky, and Wednesday got Tyler and brought him to Xaviers shed. They interrogated him about being the Hyde, of course he denied all those accusations. Wednesday had gotten out her torturing tools, to make the Hyde come out. The Nightshades felt a little weird, and reported all that to Weems. After all, shes the principal. She should know about it.

The police came into the shed shortly after, preventing Wednesday from truly hurting Tyler. The sheriff, Tylers dad, was shocked to see Wednesday and his tied up son. Wednesday got taken to the police station, and they talked to her about all that. Tyler had also quickly talked to her before she left, asking her how it felt to loose. Obviously, she had been in a fucked up mood all the time, an dthen the worst happened. Weems threw her out of Nevermore.

Sky and Enid sat with Wednesday while she packed her things. Wednesday got informed, that Eugene was awake, and that they could perhaps stop by the hospital to visit him. Wednesday seemed happy about the fact, that her friend was awake and she looked forward to seeing him before she had to leave.

Present

Sky was in her dorm, talking to Bianca about this and that. Normally, Sky would be with Marilyn at those times, because she was really sad that Wednesday had to leave Nevermore. But Marilyn had told her, that tonight she had a lot of important things to prepare her lesson tomorrow. She said shed make her lesson very exciting, with a few new and deadly plants. Sky understood that, and so she stayed with Bianca. Her and I were playing a game, when suddenly Enid barged in, seemingly panicked.

Small Enid PoV

I was in my room with Ajax. He was my best friend, and I talked to him so much about Wednesday, especially now because she was gone. (Yes, i love ajax, but yes, i love wenclair more so you get this) Ophelia Hall felt so empty without Wednesdays type writer noises, or my "talks" with Thing.

"I miss her, you know? I didnt think id feel like this towards Nes when I first met her. Everyone is scared by her, but why not me? She makes me feel all tingly and bubbly inside and argh oh my god" I was frustrated by my own feelings and screamed into my pillow. I just heard Ajax laugh behind me and turned around, asking why he is laughing. "Enid, my dear Enid. Everyone at Nevermore knows, that you are in love with Wednesday Addams. Hell, even Weems noticed! The way you look at each other, its so obvious. Also, youre the only one she lets get close to herself. You made her smile and that is something nobody is capable of doing!" Ajax laughs, making me blush. "Whaaat ? Me?? You think she likes me back? Maybe I should talk to her, maybe I shou-" I got interrupted by the door opening. It was Thing.

"Thing, what are you doing here???" I asked, shocked.

Thing jumped on my bed, making wild movements with his fingers, explaining something to me. "Wait wait, slow down, i cant understand you" I said, making Thing explain it slower. "Principal Weems??" I asked in shock. "What about Wednesday??" Thing started moving again, telling me what happened. "Tyler and Thornhill took her? Where?" Thing showed me something. "Crackstones Crypt? What the heck? And who are the Nightshades?" I asked and Thing pointed to Ajax.

Ajax explained a bit on the way, we had to get my sister, Sky, and of course Bianca. (small info: By now Enid knows that Thornhill and Sky are together)

Third PoV

Skys and Biancas Dorm door burst open, revealing a panicked Enid and a confused Ajax. "You both need to come with us, right now!" Enid said. Sky didnt question it, and grabbed Biancas hand. They rushed to the secret library, having Enid explain the situation. Knowing about Sky and Thornhill, she left out the fact until Sky went outside. Sky went out because she needed fresh air. In that time, Enid quickly told the Nightshades. Bianca looked somehow hurt and disappointed. Could you blame her? Her best friends girlfriend was betraying her.

The students agreed on using their siren spells on the other students so neither Tyler nor Thornhill would notice.

Enid was scared for Wednesday, because she didnt know what Thornhills plan was and what she would do to Nes. "Everything will be alright, Enid, we will save Wednesday and you will be with her sooner than you can think of. Now come on, we need to search for her." Sky told her sister, grabbing her arm. Thing, who was on Enids shoulder, grabbed the fabric of her coat so he wouldnt fall off.

It got darker by time, slowly but surely. It wasnt night, but it was dark enough now. Enid and Sky reached the forest and kept going, until Enid fell a bit behind. Sky heard a small whimper from her sister, making her turn around. "Sky, Thing, I think im.. arghh.. wolfing out.. omg.. urghh" Enid groaned, her body slowly turning into the familiar form of a werewolf. "Im so proud of you, Enid!" Sky said, before approaching her sister, also wolfing out. In case thered be danger, they would be able to defend themselves.

They reached further into the forest, seeing two people stand in front of each other. Wednesday and Tyler. Thats when they noticed Tyler slowly turning himself into the Hyde. Yet, before he could hurt Wednesday, Enid sprinted forward, pushing Tyler away from Wednesday. Sky ran to Wednesday, sniffing on her cautiously. "Is it.. Enid?" the girl asked, Enid looking at her. Wednesday had to smile and then turned to Sky "Thank you, Sky. Go help your sister, Tyler is strong. Ill go to Nevermore" Sky nodded, before she turned around, attacking Tyler as well.

It seemed he had gotten stronger over the time, and although it was two against one, he still managed to hurt both of them. Sky threw herself n front of Enid a couple of times, not wanting her sister to get hurt. They fought against Tyler, hurting him pretty badly as well with their teeth and claws.

Meanwhile Wednesday was at Nevermore, fighting against Crackstone. Thornhill had brought him back, and now it was Wednesdays destiny to save the academy and the Outcasts. Wednesday had gotten a sword, ready to fight and kill him for ever. Thats when Xavier appeared, ready to shoot Crackstone. The evil one made the arrow turn around in the air tho, shooting it back. Before it could reach Xavier, Wednesday jumped in front of it, the arrow ending up in her shoulder.

While Wednesday continued fighting against Crackstone, Enid and Sky were still not finished with Tyler. Enid landed good hits, making the Hyde screech in pain. Sky felt so proud of her sister, for a moment too long, looking at her. Tyler sensed that she was distracted, scratching her back roughly with his claws, sending her flying into the next trees. Sky howled in pain, even hearing some cracks. She was sure, she broke a few ribs and she felt the blood literally flodding her fur. Her body shuddered with pain. Enid, seeing what Tyler did to her big sister for a second time, got more angry than before, attacking him with all the rage she had in herself. She didnt like it when people hurt the ones she loved and she would make Tyler regret his actions.

Sky gathered her strength, seeing that Enid was able to handle the already bruised Hyde, an dgot back to Nevermore as fast as she could with her wounds. She heard screams and the clanging of a.. sword? Sky slowly transformed back into her human form, getting some clothes she had hidden behind a bush in case shed need them. Her whole body hurt, the bleeding still not stopping. She lost a lot of blood and breathing wasnt easy due to her injured ribs.

She went to the schoolyard, seeing a zombie like man who fought against the Addams girl. Sky sneaked to the closest pillar, sinking down onto the floor. She watched the fight, how the man, apparently Crackstone, destroyed the sword, coming closer to Wednesday with his.. staff(rod, idk man). Sky got up, immediately falling to the ground, groaning in pain. Sky kept looking at the scene, knowing this man would kill her friend.

But then, someone pierced a piece of the sword through Crackstones back. It was Bianca. She helped Wednesday, and Nes got another piece of the sword, piercing it right through Crackstones heart. He screamed in pain before he exploded into black dust.

They defeated the enemy. Or so they thought.

Skys gaze glued onto Bianca and Wednesday, she didnt hear this one person coming in.

"Oh Wednesday.. you have ruined my plans from the very start.." Thornhill said with a pout. Skys eyes welled up with tears, seeing her lover like this. A gun in the hand, pointing it towards Wednesday Addams. Bianca spotted Sky, her eyes widening as she saw her best friends state. Sky clutched onto her chest, bleeding everywhere. She muffled her sobs as Marilyn spoke to Wednesday, getting ready to shoot her.

"I might not get to kill all the Outcasts, but at least I get to kill you" Marilyn says, before Sky lunged forward with the last of her strength left, pushing her Lover to the side and making the gun go off and releasing the shot.

Sky yelps in pain, falling onto the ground, right next to Marilyn.

"No!" Marilyn screamed as she saw her girlfriend. Time seemed to go in slow motion, blood was pouring from the shot wound in Skys chest, making her weaker and weaker.

Marilyn pulled Sky into her lap, crying. Normally Sky wouldve scooted away. Marilyn was the villain in this story. She betrayed her. She broke her heart, ripped it out and stepped on it. "My love, stay with me, we can fix this. Honey i never wanted to hurt you. I never wouldve dared to let Crackstone hurt you. Never would I have let anyone touch you. When Tyler hurt you like that, I swore I would kill him if he did it again. Please, you have to stay with me Baby, keep your eyes open. Look at me my love, please" Marilyn begged. And Sky did. Her skin cold, face pale, she turned her head, looking right into those hazel eyes. "You.. betr..ayed me" Sky coughed out, blood leaving her blue lips. "Sky please, we can fix you, help is on the way, stay with me baby, please" Mari sobbed. She never wanted to hurt Sky. She never wouldve let anyone close to Sky, she should have protected Sky. But Skys heart was too big, sacrificing her life for the life of her friends. "Please, im begging you.." Thornhill kept crying, holding Skys cold face in her hands. "I love you, Sky, so much" Mari whispered, before placing a kiss on Skys ice cold lips.

"I love you too, Mari" Sky whispered out, before the life faded from her eyes.

It was as if it was just Sky and Marilyn in this moment. Wednesday and Bianca stood by the side, holding Eugene back. He had come with his bees to defeat Marilyn, or rather, Laurel Gates. But this right now? It caused Thornhill more pain than any bee sting could ever. So they let her be. Not forever, of course. But due to this, you see that she truly loved Sky, although she was an outcast.

"I will miss her.." Eugene whispered. Bianca wiped her tears away. Her best friend died in the arms of the love of her life. Even Wednesday had glassy eyes. Shed been good friends with Sky, and Sky was also Enids sister.

Marilyn held Skys body close to herself, hugging the lifeless shell of her girlfriend. Yes, she had hated the Outcasts, but Sky showed her, that they could be so much more. She was forced to fullfill what her family had started, she felt forced, as if shed be haunted by the ghosts of her family forever if she didnt. And it was the biggest mistake of her life.

A while later

Marilyn was still sitting like this with Sky.

Wednesday, Bianca, Eugene and Xavier, who joined them, made their way into the forest, where the other students were.

"Wheres Wednesday??" Enid asked everyone, they just shrugged because they hadnt seen her so far. Enid became more scared, afraid something happened to Nes. She made her way through the people. revealing a small group of.. 4? It should be 5.. shouldnt it?

Enid yelled "Wednesday!" and freed herself from the helping grip of Ajax, running to the girl she loved, hugging her. At first, Wednesday rejected the hug, and looked at Enid. Then she wrapped her arms around the werewolf girl, hugging her tightly.

"I thought Id loose you" Enid cried, looking at Wednesday. "You didnt, im still here" Wednesday smiled very slightly.

"You saved Nevermore! But.. wheres, wheres Sky?" Enid said, looking around for her sister.

"Sky??" Eid said, concerned. Then she looked at Wednesday and Bianca, whose gazes said everything. "No.. that.. Nes please dont tell me.." Enid teared up once again.
