Of Woes and Shadows (Wednesday x reader)

Chapter 8: Never ending spirals

Wednesday POV:

After leaving you in your room to rest, Wednesday went back to her room and wrote down everything she saw in the vision. Goody Addams being harassed by the village, Crackstone throwing her into the old meeting house with the other outcasts, the meeting house getting burnt by the normies, and of course, her very self being confronted by Crackstone himself.

A lot of things were nagging her at the moment. But what got her the most was that Xavier appeared in her path while running after the monster. She didn't believe in coincidence. First the vision, then the attack, losing sight of the monster, and then Xavier appearing. It made her suspect a lot from him, especially now that the monster was confirmed to be human. Wednesday's mind was scattering around everything that had happened with Xavier in the past to see if there were any clues in the past, but a tap at her window drew her back into the present.

It was your crow that was tapping with a piece of paper in their mouth. Quickly striding over she opened the window to allow them in. Thing scampered over to the crow to start a conversation while Wednesday grabbed the letter and began to read it.

With a sigh of relief, she pushed the letter to her chest before turning around and addressing your crow Atredis. "Tell your master that I will be there tonight and to rest for we have a long evening ahead of us."

The red-eyed crow bowed before flying out the window. She stood by the window seeing the demonic bird fly into your tower thanking whatever force helped you heal. Once Atredis was out of sight she gently flattened the letter and placed into her drawer not before treating her companion about staying silent of what he had just witnessed.

The rest of the day felt slow. Wednesday used the remainder of the day writing and studying more on demonology to see what possible demons you had contracts with. And to see what powers they all carried. Eventually, the time tick 6pm.

Walking up to your dorm she was able to take in the beautifully crafted gothic staircase to your room lead. The way the black stairs spiraled and curved the dim lighting of the lamps captured the deadliness and beauty of a black hole. Spinning and spinning its ring of light to hypnotize someone into their dark death for the stairs were quite steep, one misstep could cause someone to fall and crack open their head due to how sharp the edges were. Especially if they weren't grabbing onto the stone railing off to the right. Which Wednesday wasn't for she was holding her cello. Even if she wasn't she still wouldn't used the railing.

With each step she took she got gitty to see how your room was. Was it also full of breathtaking things? Things to take the life of someone with one moment of clumsiness? She couldn't help but wonder as she knocked on your steel door that had carvings of vines full of thorns.

With a creak she soon found her hope to be crumbled and thrown out the window of the tower.

Your room had LED lights that outlined the ceiling in a rose gold color with the dry flowers hanging from the netted lof on the ceiling. On top of said nets were pillows and blankets. On the walls were splattered with posters of rock bands like Bring Me The Horizon and Three Days Grace along with grotesque manga posters like one of a woman's face becoming a spirling tunnel. On the wall that was off on the side of your bed was a dart target.

Lastly, your bed was in a nook of the tower that had a white veil with fairy lights on it. Not far from it was a desk similar to hers but jam-packed with a mountain of papers. The bookshelf and clothing cabinet weren't fairing any better. The center of the room also had a bit of papers lying on a large carpet that celestial symbols on it.

"Hey!" you said with a small smile. You looked tired. Never in her life had Wednesday ever laid eyes on a Vampire that had replicas of black eyebags on their fair frozen lake skin.
