It wasn't like Isolabella tried to get herself in trouble, especially not at a school full of normies while she wasn't one of them. If she was in charge of the plan to extract revenge on the school's bullies, she might have gotten away with it, but it wasn't like her to not help defend the only other outcasts at the lousy place they called school. Either way, the bullies deserved it, not only had they picked on the helpless kid who posed no great threat (none that was noticed), but also the little brother of Wednesday Addams herself. The plan was easily crafted by Wednesday, not caring about the consequences of it, but got the justice she required nonetheless. That is where Isolabella and Wednesday differ. While the dark haired girl had moved from school to school, Isolabella tried her best to stay out of the spotlight, at least enough so that she had no trouble in the school. She had learned enough from the accident back her freshman year to know how important it was not to cause much of a scene. She wouldn't even call it an accident, rather an event that required her to push a boy into the deep end of the pool during closed hours. How was she supposed to know that the kid couldn't swim? And besides, the pool's janitor was only in the locker rooms cleaning and he heard the boy's muffled screams a few minutes afterwards. Her parents told her she was lucky that they boy even lived, the janitor was not much help with trying to get the boy out of the pool in time. 

If it were anywhere else, her parents might have found the situation humorous and rightly deserved since the boy had an addiction to pick on the young girl, the school however did not. That left Isolabella with no choice but to transfer over to the next district and promise her parents that there will not be another incident. Their mistake was transferring her to the school that just accepted Wednesday Addams. Everything after that is what led them both to be sitting in the chairs of the principal office together with both of their parents quietly talking to the principal in a separate room. To Isolabella, it seemed ironic that both incidents that led to being expelled involved a large pool.

When the two sets of parents quickly exited the room, Isolabella registered the stern look her parents held and knew that whatever came afterwards would be no good. Looking away from those disappointed stares, she met the eyes of her counterpart, and all Wednesday did was stare back at the adults with an accomplished smirk.

"You were doing so well there darling." Her father drawled from the drivers side of the car. His gaze piercing her from the other end of the mirror, "It hasn't even been a year since the last incident. You never where this violent in the past."

"It's easy to not have to fall back on violence when you weren't getting picked on every day." Isolabella grumpled, watching the landscape flash by.

"You haven't mentioned any sort of that behavior from any of these classmates, so what is your excuse for this time Bels?" Her mother turned towards the young girl. 

"Would you have rather me stand by while my kind gets picked on and locked up in a locker like some kind of animal? I think not mother. I was helping the one person who hasn't ran from me in the halls to teach those insufferable fools not to mess with an innocent boy" She looked at her mother and then to her hands, which were nervously picking at her own nails, "They were lucky I didn't use my magic and turn their brains into goo."

"Because that would have been better. I understand the need to help your friend, I really do Isolabella. Your mother and I have large respects when it comes to the Addams family, but you shouldn't place yourself in those situations." Her father spoke again, "The family of the boy who Wednesday harmed were going  to press charges. I don't know how they didn't and while you didn't have a direct role in this little revenge plot, you had enough to get expelled. You should be grateful that you aren't in Wednesday's place, I hear that the court is making her go to weekly therapy sessions."
