Wednesday's POV:

I watch Tyler crouch down to be at eye level with me.

"Why?" I grunt. He raises an eyebrow, confused. I roll my eyes. "Why'd you take me? What are you planning?"

There's always a plan in these types of situations. I want to know what. I need to get back to Nevermore. Enid is probably worried sick.

How long has it been? "Because... you're the master, Wednesday." He says with a grin.

My eyes widen. My mind becomes foggy. The word Hyde is the only thing I can see. He's using me for evil, and he knows it.

"Why not someone else?" I finally ask once I focus on what's in front of me.

He stands up and snaps his finger. "Come here!" Tyler yells, looking down at his feet.

Is he talking to me?

No, he isn't. I hear shuffling all the way over by the entrance and another figure appears. The figure walks closer and my focus finally catches him.

Ajax. "What are you doing here?" I ask, angrily.

Ajax stands behind Tyler and smiles at me. "Getting my revenge, Wednesday." He says, walking around Tyler and squatting down in front of me.

Ajax pulls out a light blue syringe from his pocket.

"Enid's mine."

Enid's POV:

It's been days since I've last seen Wednesday. I miss her so much. I don't know where she has gone to. I toss the remaining tissue on the floor along with all the other ones.

We've got no report of anyone seeing her. It's like she's dead, but no one knows. I hope she isn't dead.

I locked myself in the dorm, sitting on Wednesday's bed, constantly wishing she'd just appear right in front of me. I've been crying continuously, and I finally stopped.

This pain is not a pain I can deal with. I'm coping badly when I should be out there searching for Wednesday until I can't anymore.

Yoko checks in on me once or twice a day, giving me fresh food and water, and helping me to the bath. But the rest of the time, I'm curled up on Wednesday's bed, wishing some sort of miracle to happen.

I wish you were here. Where are you, Wens? I hear a knock on the door and someone walks in.

"Enid?" It's Yoko. She walks around to me and sits down on the bed, placing her hands on top of mine. "Are you okay?" She asks. I look down at her hands and quickly pull mine away, burying them in my chest.

I curl myself up even tighter, trying to stop the tears from falling out. I feel an arm around my arms. I haven't even noticed Yoko moved. She lays next to me, holding me close.

I start to relax into the touch, but then stop quickly, now uncomfortable. This reminds me too much of Wednesday. I sit up and let my legs hang off the bed.

Yoko perks up, confused. "I'm sorry," I mutter before putting my head in my hands.

I can't bear the thought that Wednesday isn't here. She's my everything. Now she's gone.

"We'll find her, don't worry, Enid." I hear Yoko say. She sits next to me now.

Damn, how am I not noticing when she moves. I need to get out of my thoughts. "Doesn't seem like it," I mumble.

She has been gone for days, no idea how much longer. She could just never come back.
That thought finally breaks me and I begin to sob into my hands.

Yoko moves closer and holds me in her arms. I cry into her shirt, knowing she doesn't care.

"I miss Wednesday," I say between sobs into her shirt.

"I know you do." She says softly, rubbing my back.

Thoughts come back through my mind. What happens if she wasn't happy with me and left me? Then why was the window broken? What about since Ajax came back, she left me all on my own?

More tears fall as unwanted thoughts fill my mind. I want to get them out.

I miss you, Wednesday. Please come back. I need you.

Tyler's POV:

"It'll take a couple of days for it to take effect," I say as I walk up the stairs. Ajax walks behind me.

"And she won't remember anything?" He asks as we walk into my kitchen.

"She will, just not everything. She won't even remember dating Enid, we won't tell her that. The only thing she will remember is what happened last year before the fight. Then we tell her whatever we want now." I explain. Ajax is dumb sometimes.

"So I can tell her I'm dating Enid?" Ajax's face brightens up.

"No. She'll still think that, remember?" I say.

"Ohh." He nods. I open the door to the fridge and pull out leftover chicken. I walk over and I toss it onto the table before sitting down.

"Here's some food," I say as I open the container and stick a piece of chicken in my mouth.

Ajax walks over and sits next to me, also eating the food. "Thanks for helping me out, though," I mumble through chewing.

He hums before speaking. "When should we go and tell her the... stuff?" He moves his hands around, not finding the right word.

"When she gains consciousness," I reply, continuing to eat.

Soon, the whole container is empty. I pick it up and place it in the sink before motioning Ajax to come with me. I walk down the stairs, Ajax on my tail.

We approach the sleeping girl, standing before her. I stand tall over the unconscious girl that sits in front of me.

"She should be waking up soon," I say, turning my head around to Ajax who has a smirk on his face. I turn back to Wednesday, a sinister smirk on my own face.

"Nevermore will be ours."
