The Adventures of Monday Addams and Wednesday Addams

Chapter 74-Not Alone

"Thing gave me your note. I was surprised you wanted to see me again after you ran out the other night. So, uh, is this a date?" Tyler asked as they walked through the woods.

"It's a surprise." Wednesday suddenly gave a wry chuckle "When I came to Nevermore, romance was the last thing on my mind. But when you kissed me, you opened my eyes and suddenly it all made sense."

Suddenly Wednesday turned on him "Xavier warned me about you, but I didn't listen. Ironic now, huh? Ironic would've been framing Xavier for murder while the real Hyde helped me put him away."

"Wait... you don't think..." Tyler began to say.

"I don't think. I know. Kinbott probably discovered your secret during one of your sessions. So she unlocked you. Why'd you kill her? I thought Hydes were typically loyal to their masters."

"Wednesday, this is nuts." Tyler told her.

"On Outreach Day, I told you I was visiting the old meeting house. Did Kinbott send you to spy on me? At the Rave'N, you overheard Eugene and me discussing your cave in the woods and you warned Kinbott. Eugene probably saw her torching it. Then she sent you to clean up her mess. I have to hand it to you, Tyler. Wounding yourself that night at the Gates mansion, that was a masterstroke of misdirection."

"Okay, stop." He said "Do you know how insane you sound right now? I'm not a monster. A... And if you really thought that I was, why would you risk bringing me out to the woods to confront me alone?"

"Who said I was alone?" Suddenly Monday and all of the Nightshades emerged from the shadows.

"Okay, I don't know what kind of sick joke you're playing, but I'm out of here." Tyler said trying to leave.

"Actually... you're coming with us." Monday told him and knocked him out.
