Hecate Addams had never been more nervous than what she was in that moment. As her blue eyes stared Bianca down, she couldn't help but feel a little like her sister. Hecate had made her facial expression cold and that gave her a dangerous look.

She kept her eyes from showing any emotion and she rarely blinked, which in truth had Bianca a little on edge. In front of the siren was a version of the Addams girl no one had seen before. Was she really as much of a freak as the rest of her family are rumoured to be?

"Threaten me once more, Bianca, and there'll be a war you don't want to wage on your hands." Even her soft and warm tone had turned vicious and monotoned.

"I'm not afraid of you, Hecate." Bianca said as she stood tall. She couldn't have been further from the truth. Bianca was terrified of the Addams girl. The golden haired girl had managed to take her man from her, but was he ever really hers?

As Bianca sat upright she couldn't help but notice the beads of sweat rolling down her forehead and the shortness of her breath. Had it been a dream? Or, she supposed, a nightmare?

But that was who Bianca wished Hecate was. A cold and dark girl with nothing sweet to her name. Perhaps then Xavier would see Hecate wasn't right for him. Perhaps then he would see she wasn't the warm and sweet as honey girl he believed her to be.

Perhaps then Xavier would take her back.

"Is this the right thing to do, Enid?" Hecate whispered as she held a balloon filled with red dyed water. The girl glanced at her friend, who held a balloon with blue dyed water inside and when she saw the cheeky grin on her face, she was convinced Enid had gone slightly mad.  

"It's the best thing to do." Enid replied with a little laugh before looking around to make sure no one saw them.

"But-" Hecate cut herself off as she realised Enid began walking forwards quickly. With a little yelp and a power-walk, Hecate caught up to Enid and got ready to pop the balloon.

"On the count of three." Enid mumbled, holding her balloon over Xavier's head whilst he bent down to pick up the five arrows that were littered on the floor. "One..two...three!" As fast as they could, Enid and Hecate popped their balloons over Xavier's head and shoulders, which made him yell out in surprise as his shoulders tensed. He turned around on the spot to face the culprits, but only saw one there.

"Catie...." he trailed off with a stern tone and he saw the girl practically shrink into herself, wishing for the ground to swallow her whole.

"It was Enid's idea!" Hecate quickly said as she saw Xavier slowly outstretch his arms.

"Snitch!" Enid screamed before laughing with glee as she watched the scene that happened in front of her.

Xavier had run at Hecate and enveloped her with his arms, the coloured dye dripped off and onto her white uniform, making her scream and try to push the boy away.
