"How's Wednesday?" Jackson asked as Bianca walked into his dorm

"How's Wednesday?" Jackson asked as Bianca walked into his dorm. He didn't feel like going to classes again.

"She told us the Nightshades should be ready for what's coming," Bianca told him.

"Sounds like her." Jackson laughed slightly.
Bianca nodded when a text notification went off on her phone. She checked it and looked up, a dull look on her face.

"We gotta go. Now." Bianca urged him, "It's very important. Apparently, Thornhill is a bit of a psycho. Go to the nightshade spot."

"Am I in the group?" Jackson questioned as they rushed to the spot. "I didn't know what the vote was."

"It was 50-50!" She responded, "It was going to be decided by break." They went down the steps as Enid watched in awe.

"Bianca, Davina... And Jackson and Kent? Seriously even Kent is here, I get Jackson. How exclusive is this club?" Enid turned to Ajax.

"So, what's the deal with Thornhill being a psycho?" Bianca ignored Enid's questions.

"Yeah, seriously. What's going on?" Jackson questioned as well.

"She murdered Weems and took Wednesday to Crackstone's crypt," Ajax answered. Jackson's face fell when he said it.

"We have to get everyone in the school to safety before it's too late," Enid added.

Ajax pulled out a drawing, "Cause this is what's coming."

"So do we pull the fire alarms?" Kent asked as he looked around.

"No, we don't." Jackson shook his head.

"We don't want to cause a panic and alert Tyler or Thornhill," Davina reasoned with the idea. "So how do we get everyone out?"

"Well use our siren song to convince them." Bianca faced them. Jackson went to her back and took it off for her. He gently put it in his pocket as Bianca grinned at him.

"I can use my psychic ability to scare them into leaving." Jackson nodded.

A hand went to Enid, getting picked up, "Thing and I will look for Wednesday."

"Okay. Nightshades forever." Bianca nodded to the plan. The group, except Enid and Jackson, snapped twice.

"Seriously, a secret snap too?" Enid turned to Ajax in disbelief. Jackson grabbed Bianca and ran up the stairs.

"Get everyone out of their rooms," Bianca ordered Jackson. He nodded and squeezed her hand as he let go.

He knocked on the door and then went to the next one, letting Bianca do her thing as Kent and Davina did the same on the other side. As the commotion got slightly louder, Jackson shushed them to be cautious.

"Jackson, Bianca, what the hell's going on?" Coach walked up to the two in his robe. Jackson nodded to Bianca and plugged his ears and crouched down.

"Danger is on its way. No time to delay." She used her siren voice. Coach started to call the students and waved them down the steps. He stood up as Ajax ran up to them.

"That's the last of them," Ajax declared. The other two nodded as they ran down the hall to where they saw Joseph Crackstone. He threw fire out as Bianca pulled Jackson down, Ajax falling as well.

Jackson lifted his head after the attack, "Screw you, Pilgrim!"

Bianca pulled him back down, knowing she was going to be scolding him later. They stayed down as a few students tried to see them.

"What do we do?" Ajax yelled.

Jackson noticed them grabbing his shoulder and pointing to them, "Get them to safety!"

"I will, stay safe!" Ajax nodded, cautiously getting to his feet, and rushing over to them. Jackson turned back to Bianca, nodding his head to the stairs. She nodded as they both crept to the stairs, carefully so they weren't seen by Crackstone.

When they got there, Crackstone had broken the sword Wednesday had in her hand. Jackson gasped as Bianca ran away. He noticed her running towards a sword, so he did what he did best.

Making something up to distract someone.
He picked up a pebble from the ground and threw it at the alive corpse. It hit his head. Wednesday gapped as he lowered the amount of force on her to look for the pebble thrower.

"Who dares to throw thy pebble at thy face?" Joseph looked around. Before he knew it, a metal pipe was thrown at him from a different place. The corpse saw a hand and used his staff to lift him into the air.

"I will send you both back to hell." He threatened with a grin.

"You mean... Where you came from?" Jackson managed to get out. Joseph used his magic to squeeze Jackson harder, the boy crying out.

A pain struck him as Bianca stabbed him in the heart. He let them go, Jackson falling to the ground. The boy groaned as he got back up. Bianca was thrown back by Crackstone as Wednesday stood up.

"Bianca!" Jackson yelled out for her. As Wednesday stabbed the corpse, Jackson ran toward her, crouching down to see if she was alright. She gave him a nod, letting him know she was alright as he took a breath of relief.

He helped her up, the two turning to see Joseph Crackstone dying again. Jackson covered Bianca as he exploded. Bianca nodded to Wednesday, she nodded back as Jackson pointed to Laurel Gates. He walked closer as her eyes were set on Wednesday.

"You brought a gun to a sword fight." The goth girl spoke up. "It's probably the first smart decision you've made today."

"I might now get to kill all the outcasts, but at least I get to kill you, Wednesday." She smiled evilly.

Jackson quickly did something that society would deem horrible. He punched her in the face. She slowly straightened up her posture, looking at Jackson.

"That's for Weems." He fixed his jacket as bees started to attack her. He walked next to Wednesday, who gave him a nod of approval. The buzzing of the bees intensified as more and more attacked her.

She tried shooting at them, but it was no use. She cried out as they started to pierce through her skin. Eugene walked in, his hands raised as he controlled the bees, "Yeah, that's what you get for messing with Nevermore... Bitch."

"Yeah, Eugene!" Jackson encouraged him. He smiled back at him. The two started to talk as Bianca wrapped an arm around Jackson's waist.

"Let's go meet up with the others." Jackson nodded as he wrapped an arm around her.
The four walked back as Enid hugged Wednesday tightly. Jackson let go of Bianca as Kent practically jumped into his arms.

"Really?" Jackson groaned as he held him up.

"Don't you 'really?' me. I haven't seen you in a while and you just almost fell to your death." He looked at him again. Jackson put him down and they hugged tightly.
