Wednesday's POV:

It has been around 20 minutes since Enid left the house, I slowly stood up, I know I shouldn't, but who cares. I walk over to the window and stare out into the driveway, I don't see any of them anywhere, I guess they're gonna arrive a bit later, I make my way towards my desk, sitting down in my chair, as I put a fresh piece of paper into my typewriter, thinking for a moment what to write, I start tapping away at the keys, when Thing suddenly crawls up to my desk, starting to move his fingers "You should go look for Enid, she might be in trouble" He signed out, I stared at him with confusion and annoyance In trouble? Why would Enid be in trouble? I lightly push him off the desk, as he lands back on my bed, I continue writing my novel, he crawls up to my desk not long after, signing the same thing, I roll my eyes and stand up "Fine, I'll go look for her, will you stop bothering me then?" He gives me a thumbs up, as I start walking down the stairs "Wednesday, dear, where are you going? You should be on bed rest!" My father says, as I pass him in the living room "I'm gonna be back soon, I'm okay" I say, quickly putting my jacket on and heading out the front door without another word

I first walk around the back and front yards, checking every place Enid, Yoko or Bianca could be at, nothing. I frown a bit and start walking towards the gate, exiting my family's property, it was quite cold outside, so I put my hands in my pockets, starting to walk towards the lake where Pugsley and I used to 'fish', we would usually just throw grenades into the water and watch the fish explode into the air, I look right and left everywhere I go, just in case I notice one of them, I had reached the woods, it was unlikely for them to be there, but I had to check, I start walking through the thick and tall trees, my shoes hitting against the gravel, making a loud 'tss' sound, I knew these woods better than anyone else, as I had grown up here, so finding the way back home would be easy enough, I feel something sharp brush against my ankle, I let out a grunt, as I look down, my ankle now bleeding. The hell? There was nothing you could accidentally cut on, I quickly wipe the blood off, ignoring the slight pain, it was definitely bearable, so it's okay. I touch a tree, when my head suddenly swings back, a vision.

-------------------
I wake up in the woods, I sit up and look around, everything's covered in thick fog and I can barely see anything. I slowly raise my body and stand up, squinting my eyes to try and see anything, I could hear soft grunts and whimpers, like someone's in pain, but it sounded like there was more than one person, I follow the sound, making my way towards it, as I start to walk, I step into something wet, I look down and notice a small pool of blood, there was a trail coming from it and I followed it, I could see a girl laying on the ground, bleeding. She looked like... Enid? There was a figure standing next to her, it didn't look like a person, nor did it look like an animal, it was just a figure. "You're gonna be next, Addams"
-------------------

What the hell was that? It most certainly didn't mean anything good, I have to find Enid! I quickly get up from the ground, my clothes now covered in mud, it seems like it had started raining while I was unconscious (Having a vision), I run through the forest, desperately trying to find Enid, I didn't even notice the cliff, I felt myself fall and hit the ground hard, the snow underneath made the fall a bit lighter, but it still hurt. I managed to sit up, my whole body was aching, especially my back, I had already hit it earlier this morning, this fall made the pain worse, but I knew I had to find Enid, I forced myself to stand up, although I couldn't run, I walked forward. I suddenly heard the same whimpers and grunts from my vision, I immediately started walking towards the sound, I pushed my way through the leaves, as I noticed Enid, she was on the ground, bleeding, just like the girl I saw in my vision. I quickly walked over to her and got on my knees to check her pulse, it was there, I sighed in relief, as I looked at her face, she seemed unconscious, just as I was about to pick her up, I heard a stick snap, I immediately grabbed my pocket knife and turned around, I saw the figure from my vision "Who are you?" I asked in a rather calm tone

"My, my, the one and only Wednesday Addams standing right before my eyes.." Their voice sounded deep, but also like they were trying to hide that they're in pain "Who are you?!" This time, I yell out "No need to get so worked up" The figure stepped out into the sun, I couldn't see their face, but judging by their voice, it was a man, they were wearing an all black, long robe "What do you want from me?!" I was starting to get frustrated, as the figure laughed "Her." They point to Enid, who was laying unconscious on the ground, I pointed my knife at them, as they laughed, slapping it out of my hand "You really think you can kill me with that? My dear Wednesday, are you stupid?" They asked in a serious tone, like they were questioning my intelligence, I frowned "I won't let you touch her." I reply, as they burst out laughing "My, my, does Wednesday Addams care for someone? In that case.." They trail off, when they kick me right in the face, I let out a pained yelp, as my nose started bleeding. I glared at them with pure hatred in my eyes, as I tried my best to fight back, they managed to hit me a couple of times, the hits were strong, stronger than I could bear, they had a lot of strength. I suddenly feel a burning sensation in my abdomen, I look down to see a knife stuck in my stomach, my shirt was already starting to soak in my blood, the knife was stabbed right where I got stabbed last semester. I stumble backwards, holding onto a tree nearby, I could feel myself start to lose consciousness, in the corner of my eye, I could see them trying to pick Enid up

I gathered all of my strength to push them away "I'll be back later, Addams" My vision goes white for a second and when I finally get it back, the figure was gone, I rush to Enid, she was starting to regain her consciousness, while I was losing mine

Enid's POV:

I slowly open my eyes, as I feel a presence next to me, I don't remember well what happened, but I do remember someone standing with a knife in front of me, I don't know what happened after. I turn my head to the left and see... Wednesday?! Her face was all beat up, bruises and cuts everywhere, I noticed I was laying in a pool of blood, it wasn't mine, my eyes widened, as I noticed a knife stuck in Wednesday's stomach "OH MY GOD!" I yell out, quickly straddling her, her face was paler than usual, she was losing a lot of blood, I had to do something! "WEDNESDAY! WEDNESDAY, CAN YOU HEAR ME?!" I yell frantically, slapping her in hopes of maybe waking her up "SHIT, WEDNESDAY, WAKE UP!"
