Of Woes and Shadows (Wednesday x reader)

Chapter 46: It all fell down

Alexa play Adele- "Rolling in the deep"!

Y/N's pov:

After "saving" Tyler all of you minus your men who were alerted by Atredis not to show themselves for it would alert Tyler to warn his master about your guys investigation.

In Tyler's house you couldn't help but continue to glare at the Hyde across the table who kept the fragile act going as Wednesday stitched him up. Once in a while he would glance your way, silently telling you to stay quiet or else everyone in the room would die.

That was the only thing you took note of in his house for your mind was still imagining ways to kill him. Smash his head on the table till it broke. Then using the broken pieces to stab him. Or flood the bathroom sink and submerged his head till he suffocated! Rip his throat apart or his body. Or simply let the shadows swallow him whole and let the shadow realm have their fun with him.

Soon the Sheriff arrived and the next thing you know you were back in your room with a simple scolding. Wednesday on the other handed didn't get just a scolding. She was about to kiss Nevermore goodbye.

"We took photos of what we found." says Y/B/N, dropping her phone on your desk. Scanning through the images you saw the car that hit the mayor, a Crackstone shrine, the missing body parts, and Laura Gate's bedroom being untouched. Or should you say Thornhill.

Louche was able to find Thornhill's true identity. But since it was a demon that got the information you couldn't use it to arrest her. Now with what was found in the manor, you now had a fuck ton of DNA evidence. During class you stole the pen she let you borrow to do DNA test. In a plastic bag on your desk was a box of matches and a freshly used one.

"Should we share this with the authorities?"

You shake your head 'no'. More people could be involved like the Sheriff. Just because he was worried about the mayor doesn't mean he was innocent. Plus the fact that everything magically disappeared when he went to check it out was a bit alarming. "We're burning that place to the ground. I need Thornhill to react. Any reaction will do."

She nods and asks you if you guys should catch another plan. "No. Evelynn will take us home."

Your best friend quivers and says right before leaving to get her stuff. Opening the door a shriek came from her mouth. "H-hey Wednesday-"

"Where's-"

"Now you want to acknowledge me?" you shout as you shove the latest evidence into your backpack. Y/B/F scurries past the human girl, the tense atmosphere was choking her.

"Why did you attack Tyler?" She demands, marching to you with eyes drunk on rage. You scoff and pull out the old evidence pointing at him. Slamming it on the desk.

She slowly picks up the evidence as if scared to find the truth. Boiling your skin even more to the point your skin could begin to peel off. Her eyes scan the document casually, taking in each word as if she was tasting an old wine. The way her eyes slightly widen and her breathing got deeper it was clear that the words were swirling in her mind, sinking deep into her body. And that was just the first document which was the schedule comparison and how drastic Tyler's attitude had changed since the attack began during the late summer.

"This proves nothing." she says handing back the folder. She only saw the first half of the evidence! She hadn't seen the photos of the scar and the recipes of his therapy sections! Some therapy sections he seems like he was retramatized which showed when Thornhill probably forced him to waken his Hyde form! Hell, Wednesday didn't even read the document stating the type of monster Tyler was!!

"NOTHING?!" Your chair is knocked over as you tower over the small girl. "You didn't even look at everything-"

"If this is the evidence you chose to start with that is built with assumptions then I assume the rest is equally as weak or weaker-"

"Just read it-" 

"It's weak-"

"For fuck sakes just read the rest! It will all make sense!" She shoves the folder into you chest and demands to know why you tried to kill Tyler. You tell her that he is the monster. She scoffs and repeats the questions again and again for the next 2 minutes and you gave the same answer. She kept going, hoping for you to give her another answer- hoping you would give her whatever answer she sought. An answer that would probably show jealousy or hatred towards normies. Anything that wouldn't be the fact that Tyler is the killer!

With a frustrated sigh you kick the wall, creating a deep creator on it. She didn't flinch, she just scoffed again. You try to tell her the evidence in the folder but she counters quickly like her blade attacks with the same bloody question that was making the deadly thoughts more noticeable like before.

"I COULD BE EXECUTED FOR SHOWING YOU THESE ADDAMS- YOU HAVE TO TRUST ME!"

"Trust you? How can I after today?! You tried to kill someone in front of me with loose evidence and now you just confirmed that you were withholding information from me when we clearly stated we wouldn't-"

"AH, that's rich coming from you!"

She scoffs and tells you she doesn't know what your talking about. You mock her scoff a few times as your vision became a bit blurry. Your back felt like it was on fire. Seconds away from engulfing your body and everything around you. But what hurt the most was your heart. Wednesday's words was tearing it into shreds as if it was in a paper shredder or cheese grinder. Over and over.

"Is that all you can do- scoff!? How mature! So fucking mature!"

"And swearing like a sailor is mature? You sound like a child trying to appear older. Then again would fit your current attitude. Why did you try to kill Tyler and withhold information from me!?" Her dark eyes that pulled you in like a Black hole were now tearing, burning, and stretching you like one. 

"Why should I tell you? You haven't been telling me things."

Wednesday crosses her arms and glares your body nonchalantly. It felt like you were looking at the Evelynn from back then. "STOP ACTING LIKE A CHILD! NO WONDER YOUR PARENTS DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO YOU!"

You punch the wall next to you. Cracks appear on it immediately as if it was made of ice. Your eyes flash red. Wednesday's face drops from being stoic to one full of concern and terror. she lifts her arm to touch you but she never got further than her own chest. Her mouth was now a small gap that no air or words came through.

Your heart was now no more.

"Y/L/N I-"

"Get out."

"No, I-"

"I SAID GET OUT!!!" you turn around activating your shadow magic to grab her. Your eyes whipped out tears as your back made you stumble towards her thanks to the pain it clawed you with.

Before the shadows or you could grab her. Evelynn appeared before you and hugged you, pushing you back. Your friends stormed through the door to stop you as well. Y/B/F's glare was now on your girlfriend. Repeating what you said to her.

Wednesday snapped out of her freeze and quickly ran towards you but the shadows bloomed from the corners and swallowed you and your friends for a few seconds.

Soon you found yourself in the private courtyard of the Royal family of the Vampiric court in Transylvania.

Your tears felt like they were acid against your eyes. The cool mountain air set your lungs on fire and froze your heart and veins. All your thoughts were now nothing but scribbles, making your ears bend and bleed at the sound of people breathing and a leaf falling. Evelynn held you close to her chest and covered your left ear, trying to quiet the loudness around you while shushing you.

Suddenly your back bent forward as something tore out of your back. The sound of flesh plopping on the ground and skin being torn like paper echoed through the courtyard. The shadow of batwings behind you was the last thing you saw as blood rained down before the shadows embraced you again.
