Wednesday's POV:

We all gathered in the downstairs office area.
Enid sits on the black velvet couch and Yoko sits next to her. The girl's fingers tap rapidly on the tiny screen of hers. I wonder what she's doing.

I pace back and forth quickly in the room, Yoko's eyes glued onto me the whole time. I can't stop thinking about this note. What does it mean? Who was it from?

It's eating me up inside.

"Girl, you're making me dizzy with the pacing. Spit it out already!" Yoko says harshly.

I shoot a glare at her that shuts her up immediately. I return to my pacing. Should I tell them? I mean, I am. It's just... how do I phrase this?

It's not hard. Why am I stressing about it? You know what? Fuck it.

My fingers scramble around in my pocket before I chuck the paper ball at them. Yoko looks at me in shock and confusion before slowly grabbing the paper.

I have now drawn Enid's attention as she reads the paper with Yoko. I watch as their eyes widen. I continue pacing, nails in between my teeth.

"What the fuck happened?" I hear from the side of the room. I stop, back facing toward them.

My hand is pulled away from my mouth as I look at my nails. They're chipped and are very short. I've been doing it a lot lately, not really surprised. But I need to fix it.

"Hello?" Someone pulls me from my thoughts.

I whip around to the girls who stare at me. "Eugene's gravestone was destroyed and I saw the note and read it and now someone is after us again," I say in one breath.

The girl's jaws are hung open. I take a shaky breath as I look at them. My pacing starts again. God, why can't I stop? My breaths are quick and jittery.

I feel hands on my shoulders as I'm spun around. "Wednesday." Enid stands in front of me.

How long has she been calling my name for? I stare into her eyes as I slowly start to get lost in them. They're just so... gorgeous.

Fingers snap in front of me as I'm pulled, once again, back to reality. "You need to calm down." The girl in front of me speaks.

I wish. I don't stop though, it only continues. I feel myself being lifted up off of the ground and placed on the couch. I curl up into a ball.

Why would someone do this? Who on Earth would do this? Why bee boy? I feel the rage and anger build up inside of me. I can't act out right now, though. Yoko and Enid are here. I need to hold it until I have time to myself.

I'm going to kill whoever did this. I'm promising everyone that. Even to Eugene.

My breathing hitches as the thoughts keep rushing through my mind. Goddamnit.

Enid's POV:

My eyes are stuck on the girl who curls up into a ball on the couch. God, I feel so bad for her. After Eugene dying, and his grave being destroyed, it all sucks. Really, really sucks.

"We need to figure out who did this," Yoko speaks up, pulling my focus away from Wednesday.

I nod my head quickly, my eyes wandering back over to the raven. She's shaking lightly, eyes squeezed shut, knuckles turning white due to how hard she is gripping onto the couch.
