One
"Welcome" Charles Swan let's my family and myself into his home, apparently this is my punishment for not making sure a group of teenage boys are dead. Living with the Chief of Police of a small town named after a utensil "Hello Gomez, Morticia-you must be Wednesday and Pugsley. Who is this?" Seeing Lurch.
"That is Lurch" Morticia says "which one is the room Wednesday shall be staying in?"
"She'll be with Bella in-is that a coffin?" Charles asks seeing Lurch come in with my bed, a black wooden coffin.
"Yes" mother sighs smiling "Wednesday's bed" this has this Charles speechless "Lurch is part of the family, now we must be off soon-but Wednesday needs to go to court mandated therapy"
"Yes" nodding his head as he warily looks at me "I was informed of the situation"
"Splendid!" Father exclaims "now, we must be off" looking at me he pulls me into a hug which he knows I hate "create chaos my dark raven" he leaves and next is Puglsey.
"You are soft and weak" I say "you won't last a day without me, I give you two months. Tops"
He sighs nodding his head "I going to miss you too, sis" they leave me and mother.
"Wednesday, I have informed all relatives to call us immediately when they sense you darken their doorstep" mother says "if you try to leave"
"You are a cold and heartless woman" I say "mother"
She smiles "finally, a kind word from you" she hands me a necklace "W, M" she shows me the initials "our initials, obsidian. Aztec priests used it to conjure visions" I take it as she has her hand hover over my arm, she leaves then along with Lurch.
When they are gone. I look at Charles who just stares at me "Um, why don't I show you where you will be staying?" We go upstairs to a room with blue and purple bedding "this is the room you and Bella shall be sharing and are you okay? You seem...pale"
"I am allergic to color" I look around feeling nauseous at the color.
"Oh" he rubs the back of his neck "that's Bella, Bella meet Wednesday your cousin" this Bella that stands before me is a skinny human with bags under her eyes and wears tight clothing.
We stare at one another, she gets uncomfortable under my gaze that she quickly leaves. I look at Charles before going to unpack. He leaves after a moment.
~School~
"This is Forks" Isabella says as she parks her old orange truck near the school, she and I have been silent and I like it that way "High" we get out and everyone stares at us as we go into the school, going to the officer there is an officer there as the secretary looks our way.
"You must be Wednesday" the secretary speaks, I am silent "one of the things we Ned to do is have you bag be constantly tracked everyday" I hand my case to the officer who takes it and opens it. He looks through it, he is unnerved under my gaze. When he closes it, I take it and look at the secretary.
"Well?" Demanding, she looks at me "are you incompetent or do I have to come over there and grab my timetable myself?"
She hands me my sheets with shaky hands "I need you to get your teachers to sign this" she shows me the sheet "bring it back by the end of the day" taking it I leave with Bella who was apparently waiting for me.
We are silent until she asks "Is this your locker?" We appear before my locker and I open the locker and get my things before going to my first class leaving Bella alone.
Time flies by fast, in each class I've had to introduce myself and I can sense fear from everyone which I love. It is lunch now, I eat at a table by myself until Bella joins only to stare out of the window. My mother told me about her and I do not care what she does.
"Hi" I see a teenager with golden brown hair, hazel eyes, fair skin and bright colors before us "your Wednesday right?" I stare at her which makes her uncomfortable by my silent gaze "I'm Jessica, nice to meet you" holding her hand out, I do not take it. So she pulls her hand back "so is it true you tried to kill a bunch of kids at your last school?"
"Yes" she gulps "because my one target was a gossip queen much like yourself" blood drains from her face before she nervously laughs "boo" she jumps back before running away.
I simply pull out a book and eat this sad excuse for food, terrible. Institutions such as this one feeding terrible food and are underpaid, but why should I care? I won't be here long. Now, when should I leave today?
