The next day they didn't find Rowan in the woods dead confusing Wednesday and I. "What were you both doing out in the woods with him?" The sheriff asks as we all enter Weems office.
"We heard a noise in the forest and went to go investigate." Wednesday tells him.
"That's when we stumbled upon the attack." I add.
"Then what happened?" He asks us.
"We ran to get help but I fainted as soon as we got back to the festival. I was shocked by what we saw." I slightly lie.
"I ran into Bianca Barclay, and told her to go for help. Next thing I remember, I was awaking in the infirmary next to my sister."
"Just to be clear, this monster wasn't a bear or some other wild animal?" He asks us.
"We've hibernated with grizzlies. We know the difference." We tell him at the same time.
"Thank you, Sheriff. I think the Addams are done now." Principal Weems stands up from her seat.
"Actually, I would like to speak to Sheriff Galpin. Alone." Wednesday says but Weems says no before agreeing so we won't go down to the station. "Someone is trying to cover up Rowan's murder. That's the only reason to scrub the crime scene." Wednesday tells him as the three of us were alone.
"Is that your professional opinion as the daughter of a murderer?" He asks making me mad.
"Our father's twice the man you are, the only thing he murders is the occasional opera in the shower. Sheriff, we know what we saw. We wouldn't lie about this. You have to believe us. I know you want to reject our claims but you can't because you know just like us there's a monster out there. What else would explain those three bodies?" I stare him down till the door opens and the deputy shows us Rowan making us shocked.
After some time we were told for today's therapy sessions, Wednesday and I both had to go together. "Help me understand why you two claim you witnessed a murder. Was it to gain attention?" Dr. Kinbott asks.
"Why should I bother telling you anything? You've already decided we're lying. We know what we saw." Wednesday tells her.
"I've never lied in any session so why would I start now? It makes no sense to lie about something like this." I speak up so she looks at me then focuses on Wednesday,
"Your life's had a lot of upheaval recently. It's okay to be confused about things. And maybe you are confused as well with the feelings of having your sister around." She then looks at me so I roll my eyes.
"Don't try to lure me into one of your psychological traps." Wednesday tells her.
"No one is trying to trap you. I'm here to help you process your emotions." Dr. Kinbott tells her.
