Outgoth the Goth

Chapter 11 – Family Reunion.

No One's POV.

After a few moments of stunned silence, Jade managed to speak. "You told me your entire family died tragically in a fire some 20 years ago and that's why you never speak of them."

Morticia let out an eerie laugh. "Fire! Not for lack of trying."

"Huh?"

Morticia Addams answered again. "You see, the last time I saw my dear sister, was the night of my engagement party to Gomez. Your mother was so angry about it, that she set fire to the house. Not before locking all the doors and windows, with us inside. My dear sister, you forgot the lock in the window in the study was broken. You did get cousin Hogatha and her husband Clifford, but everyone hated them anyway. They ate everyone out of house and home and never could shut up about that rotten prized poodle of theirs."

Jade's mind began to spin. "Wha? Fire? Angry Twins?"

Caroline stepped towards her sister, holding the sword out, as if ready to strike at any moment.

Only then did Carolyn talk to Jade, her words full of venom. "You see Jade. Gomez, her current husband, I was in love with him first. I asked him out and he said yes. I then set up the perfect first date. A picnic in the abandoned and supposedly haunted mental hospital. The one where those teens were murdered the previous summer. I could barely wait and finally the day came. All day at work on the killing floor of the slaughter house where I worked, I was beyond excited. Finally, my shift ended, and I eagerly drove home to get ready for my big date. On my way home I discovered that my sister had cut the brakes in my car. Had I not jumped out of the car, I would have gone over suicide cliff. She wanted me out of the way so she could date him. She took him on the date I planned and kept dating him, while I SPENT 7 WEEKS IN A BODY CAST!"

Morticia shrugged. "All's fair in love and war. I did sign the cast dear sister."

"Yes you did, it said in big red letters. DIE!"

Morticia and Carolyn, both holding longswords began to circle each other, menacingly.

Morticia then took a step closer to her sister, also sword in hand. "My sister was still quite upset when Gomez and I announced our engagement 6 months later. The rest of the family was quite pleased by our engagement, that's why your mother tried to kill us all by setting the house on fire."

That said, Carolyn swung her sword and Morticia's head, but was blocked. The fight had begun.

Wednesday poked Jade in the arm. "You may want to stand back; those blades are razor sharp."

Jade put out her hands. "Wait...Wait..you two look nothing like each other."

Carolyn briefly looked to Jade. "Were fraternal twins, so were not identical. Still, I looked too much like her, so after I left home. I dyed my hair blonde, tanned my skin and had plastic surgery on my nose, cheeks and chin."

Morticia chuckled. "Your new face is by no means an improvement, dear sister. You'll never be as pretty as me."

Carolyn visibly fumed, then swung her sword, lopping off the head of what appeared to be a monstrous Venus fly trap, some 5 feet tall.

Morticia visibly grew angry. "I grew and nurtured that from when it was a seedling, over 10 years ago. It would always get so excited when a door-to-door salesmen would come. That meant treat time."
