"I'll tell you what I know" Wednesday states with her iconic glare on her face as I stare at her patiently waiting to know what she had seen as I sit in the dorm that her and Enid share, although Enid was nowhere to be seen.

"You were drinking a smoothie of some sort on your ninth birthday, or what I assume to be your ninth birthday. There was a cake with a 9 on it and a blood red smoothie." She says "My best bet is you're a vampire, born one or made one is two different stories."

"A vampire? Because of a smoothie?" I question

"No, because you had sharp canines for a child" she pauses "tell me, how much have you eaten since you left home? What do you eat that your mother doesn't make?"

I think about it for a second. "Nothing now that you mention it..." I begin to ponder hoping to think of at least one thing I've eaten without it being made by her. "What does that have to do with anything though?"

She stares at me as if I'm stupid, or maybe that's just her normal glare. "Since you can't put two and two together. Your food and/or drinks probably had blood in them to keep your thirst down."

"You might be right" I say simply "thank you Wednesday, tremendously"

She just nods and sits in front of her typewriter, most likely as a sign for me to leave her alone. To which I accept and walk to her door to leave.

"Oh, and one last thing Grimm. I watched you die" Wednesday says, setting me on edge. How often is she wrong?

"You probably just misread the situation, thank you again" I hurry and leave her room and head back to my own. Maybe she had mistaken me for someone else. There's no way I can die if I just got here..

"Why do you have that look on your face?" a voice says from beside me.

I quickly turn and look to my side to see the Greek- Xavier.

"What kind of look is it? If it's the 'you just got told you're going to die' kind of look, I can explain" I chuckle

"Hm it's more of a 'what the hell is happening' kind of look" he smiles

"I was thinking that in a way. Anyways, where are you heading?" I ask him

"To my art shed, I need a break for a second. Where are you coming from? You were in the girls dormitories" he asks curiously

"I was talking to Wednesday Addams about something. She's a bit scary honestly"

Xavier had an odd look on his face, it could be jealousy that another guy was with her, or maybe curiosity, he was hard to read so I couldn't tell.

"Why were you talking to her?" He asks flatly

"I ran into her earlier, she had a vision or something. So I talked to her, about what she saw" I shrugged my shoulders

"What did she see?" Xavier asks staring at me as I continue to look straight ahead as we walk to the quad.

"That's for me to know and for you to find out" I glance around the quad looking for the fangs, hoping to ask them some questions.

"I'm gonna go socialize, have fun at your art shed Greek God"

"Yeah yeah, have fun socializing" he saluted and smiled before walking away.

I shook my head with a stupid grin on my face, before heading over to the fangs.

A chorus of "who are you?" and "what do you want?" Leaked out of their mouths.

"My apologies, I'm Grimm Elwin. I'm a new student. Is it alright if I ask a few questions?"

They all glance at each other, as if speaking with their eyes before they looked at me and made room at their table for me to sit.

"Thank you. I'm curious about your upbringing. When did you become changed into a vampire or realize you are one?" I question nervously as I get stared at with dead eyes, literally.

It was a moment of silence before someone finally spoke, a girl. "I changed around the age of 8 on my birthday"

"Do you only drink blood? Like is it in your food and drinks?" I ask

"Actually yeah, why do you ask?" A random guy questions

"Because I'm trying to figure out if I'm one of you or not" I sigh "thank you for helping me" I state before sitting up

" We can help you right now" said the same girl again "drink this" she hands me a cup that looks like a slushie.

I take a sip, it's pretty good "what is this?"

"Pigs blood slushie" she smiles at me

"Pigs blood?" And I drank it just fine?

All of a sudden we hear someone scream a loud high pitch yell.

"What the-?" I begin

"Raphael is dead!" The same girl shouts "they found his body in the woods!"

Who is Raphael? Why's he dead? What's going on? I thought this murder stuff ended after Tyler was taken away?

What the hell is going on?
