Hey, here's the whack-a-mole game! Ladies first." Percy said, "Thanks." Replied Wednesday. She saw Rowan walking toward the forest. "Crap!" Rowan exclaimed as he ran away. "Wait-" Wednesday's head tilted back with force. She had a vision. She saw Rowan running into the force, a loud roar, Rowan on the ground, him being scratched by some sort of monster. She came back to reality with a gasp. "Hey! Are you alright?" Asked Percy sympathetically, "I'm fine. But I need to go into the woods." She said with ease, "Why? It says ''Do Not Enter for a reason." Replied Percy, "Maybe so, but Rowan is in danger. Do not follow me, and if you hear me screaming bloody murder it's probably me enjoying myself." Wednesday said, smirking a little. "Alright. But please be careful. I can't lose another friend here." Percy said, his eyes filling with darkness\. "Rowan, you need to leave these woods now. You're in danger." Wednesday warned, "No, I think you're mistaken. YOU'RE the one in danger." Rowan replied, as he used telekinesis to slam Wednesday against the tree. "Here's this. My mother gave it to me as a final warning before she died." Rowan explained, "T-That's me." Wednesday gasped, "Yes, my mom said you would come to Nevermore, and that you would destroy the school. She said I needed to stop you." Rowan yelled. Wednesday's eyes widened as she tried to speak. It was too late. "What is it-AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Rowan screamed, as the hyde scratched him. The hyde stared directly into Wednesday's eyes, and then ran away. "Just like my vision. Why did it not attack me though?" Wednesday wondered, "Oh my god..Wednesday is he-" "Yes. He's dead." Replied Wednesday. "H-How did this happen?" Asked Percy, trying to stop trembling after seeing this horrendous sight. "The hyde monster you were speaking of at breakfast. He killed Rowan right in front of me. But the only question is-''''Why didn't it kill you." Percy interrupted, "Yes. Precisely." Agreed Wednesday. "Children, where are you?" Asked Principal Weems, "Darn it. She'll see us coming out of the woods. But shouldn't we tell her about Rowan? Asked Percy, "No. She'll accuse us of killing him, maybe assume we're lying about the monster." Wednesday said, "Yea, that's true." Percy quickly agreed, "Let's go out. I'm not afraid of anything except emotions." Wednesday announced, "Okay, lets go no-" Percy faltered, "Wednesday Addams and Percy Velasquez, did you not read the sign? Why are you guys in the woods?" Asked Principal Weems accusingly, "I heard a noise and went to investigate." Wednesday lied, "We both did. I followed after her in hopes for some action." Percy lied, "Why is he lying for me?" Wednesday wondered, "Both of you. We are going to my office to talk about this." Principal Weems said sternly, "Okay. Whatever gets me out of this deathtrap of a festival." Wednesday admitted, "Mhm." Percy agreed. Xavier was walking out of his private art studio with scratch marks on his neck.
