Wednesdays pov

"I'm not sure who's twisted idea it was to put a hundred of adolescents in underfunded schools by a bunch of people who's dreams where crushed years ago but I enjoy the sadism"

As I walked walked to my brothers locrker after seeing some basic school jocks laughing to themselves around it they all walked off as the bell had just rung i open the locker to find my poor brother pugsley tied up inside with an apple in his mouth, i watched as he fell to the floor with a rather soft thud

I bent down grabbed the apple out of his mouth and said "I want names."

"I don't know who they were, it happened so fast" Pugsley said with a slight upset tone "pugsley emotion equals weakness pull yourself together, Now." I said annoyed yet again at his upset state,  I began to untie my brother but then i touched his wrist and my head went back, As it did so i saw which jocks were tying up my brother and throwing him in his locker with that i came back to reality

"You okay?" Pugsley asked confused, i simply ignored his question "leave this to me" is all i said before swiftly standing up "what are you gonna do?" Pugsley asked still somewhat confused "what I do best" is all i said before walking off

As i made my way to the schools swimming pool where all the dumb jocks who tortured my soft brother where having swim practice piranhas inhand i walked up the stairs "Yo Doltan look it's pigleys sister" said one of Doltans many friends "Hey freak, it's a closed practice" Doltan said with a smirk as he and his friend chuckled  "the only person who gets to torture my brother is me." I stated giving them all a stone cold glare, I raised both my arms showing them my glorious bags of piranhas they all looked at me with shocked expressions it almost made me smile but as I dropped the piranhas in the pool and just watching them fight to get out quick enough made me smirk though just the smallest amount as fear is my favourite thing to watch as luck would have it Doltan got his sweet sweet karma now that put a smile on my pale face

After that small incident I was fortunately expelled now I'm sitting here watching my parents make a fool out of themselves showing the up most amount of affection one could possibly show much to my disgust but alas I'm giving them the silent treatment

"Darling how long do you Intend of giving up the cold shoulder?" Said my mother "Lurch please remind my parents that I'm no longer speaking to them" As I asked Lurch that he simply grunted in response "I promise my little viper you will love Nevermore, won't she Tish?"  Replied my father "Of course she will it's perfect for her" my mother stated

"Why because it was the perfect school for you? I have no interest in following in your footsteps becoming captain of the fencing team, Queen on the dark prom, President of the secret society." I said "I mean finally you'll be among peers who understand you, You might even make some friends" my mother said a smirk forming and my father smiling "Nevermore is like no other boarding school, It's a magical place, it's where I met your mother and we fell inlove" my father said staring at my mother lovingly as they moved there faces closer

"You guys are making me nauseous, Not in a good way" I said hoping they wouldn't kiss infront of my eyes as I've already seen enough "Darling we aren't the ones who got you expelled, That boys family was going to file attempted murder charges, How would that have looked on your record" my mother said knowing she struck a nerve "Terrible everyone would know I failed to get the job done" I said looking off to the side knowing if I ever get a second chance i won't fail next time

As we pulled into Nevermores school gates I sit awaiting my unimaginable doom "At least it's turning into a beautiful day" my mother said staring out the window looking at the grey clouds and rain pouring down I however staying quite as we pulled into the front yard of the school building

We walked into the school fortunately not seeing a student in sight as classes were being held at this time, We make our way to the principals office and take a seat infront of her desk she stares at us blankly "Wednesday is such a unique name, I'm guessing it's the day of the week you were born?" The principal asked looking rather intrigued "I was born Friday the 13th" I said "Her name comes from my favourite nursery rhyme, Wednesdays child is full of woe" my mother said looking proud of herself "you've always had a unique perspective on the world Morticia" The principal said who I know now as Principal Weems "did your mother tell you we were roommates  back in the day" Weems said with a smile "And you graduated with your sanity intact impressive" i said honestly I genuinely meant it my mother was a hand full as an adult I couldn't image as a teenager and how her actions where "8 schools in five years" Weems said with a questioning tone "they haven't built one strong enough to hold me I bet this place won't be any different" I replied

"What our daughter is trying to say is she greatly appreciates this opportunity" my father tried to explain "Nevermore doesn't usually except students midterm, But with Wednesdays perfect grades and your families long history with the school, I've spoken with the board and we've made an exception

"Larissa what about Wednesdays um therapy sessions? The court ordered them" My mother questions "The school has a relationship with a therapist in Jericho she can meet twice a week" Weems simply replied "Did you hear that my little storm cloud your in excellent hands" my father calmly explains like having a mandated therapist makes this experience any better for me "we'll see if she survives the first session" I replied blunt as always

"I've assigned you to your mothers old doom, Ophelia hall" Weems says calmly but my mother however got excited by this new found news and smiles rather widely and stares at me "refresh my memory Ophelia's the one who kills herself after being driven mad by her family, correct?" I say putting a stop to my mothers disgustingly joyful moment

"Shall we go meet your room mates?"
