Wednesday Addams calmly opened her eyes, just like every other morning.
'It's today,'
That was her first thought as she robotically got out of bed and checked the time—six in the morning. There was still an hour and a half before the first-class period started.
She had woken up earlier than usual. Normally, she woke up at 6:30 AM. The reason for this change was a thought that had been lingering in her mind for almost two days.
A thought about Luke and the decision he...

Luke arrived at a bar that was far from the center of Jericho. The building had a worn-out wooden facade, with two swinging doors, the classic kind from old western saloons, barely hanging from their rusty hinges—a faint light filtered through the dirty windows, signaling that the place was open.
'Am I in the Wild West?' Luke thought as he walked toward the entrance.
He pushed the doors, which creaked loudly. Upon entering, he could see the inside of the bar. It wasn’t huge. T...

"Hey, strange time for you to be having breakfast," Luke said, sitting across from Wednesday, who looked up from her food.
"Why strange? You're also in the cafeteria at this hour," replied Wednesday, her voice as impassive as her expression.
Luke smirked a gesture that made him always seem on the verge of mockery. "It's different for me. On weekends, I usually stay up late playing video games, and wake up late. So it's normal for me to have breakfast at this time," he explained.

Luke abruptly opened his eyes and jumped out of bed. His forehead was covered in sweat, and a bit of drool lingered at the corner of his mouth.
'The same dream again,' Luke thought, watching the daylight filter through his bedroom window. He wiped the drool from his mouth and began to change as he noticed it was nearly two in the afternoon.
His dream was simple and repetitive. It was about Enid looking at him with fear and distrust—an event that happened a week ago when Luke kil...

Wednesday, with a slight wave of her hand, unraveled the cocoon of darkness that had imprisoned Sabrina. Either way, it would be impossible for her to escape now that Luke and she were here. Besides, she was in no condition to move after the torture Wednesday had inflicted on her.
Luke looked at Sabrina’s state in surprise. Her entire body was covered in severe wounds, as if from tentacles. Even she had peed herself, making her condition all the more pathetic.
“Do you like my ...

Atlas stood motionless before Luke, his eyes seeming to be in a trance, and a faint, cold smile appeared on his face.
Luke closed his eyes for a moment, focusing all his concentration on the open palm of his hand. There, he began to gather telekinetic waves, condensing them more and more, until the very air around him began to distort, trembling under the intense pressure.
A vibration, even perceptible to the naked eye, spreads through the surroundings as if space itself twisted i...

Luke acted before Atlas. With his telekinesis, he controlled two uprooted trees and hovered above Atlas, aiming at him. These trees were fifteen meters tall and had a diameter of 50 cm. Each tree weighed approximately one ton. They were twice as large as the ones Luke had controlled in the past during his fights.
'Double aura, and he can lift two trees of that size. A terrifying talent,' Atlas thought, watching the trees floating about ten meters away.
Atlas was the servant, the r...

“This is a real zombie attack!” exclaimed Xavier, decapitating three zombies at once with a katana he held in his right hand. The katana was black and white, but aside from that, it looked like a high-quality Japanese blade.
“We were right to come back!” said Ajax with a grin, crushing the head of a disgusting, ugly zombie under his foot.
Both were zombie game fanatics and being in a sort of zombie apocalypse was one of their dreams.

“A zombie attack!” exclaimed Xavier in astonishment from behind his bush. In front of his eyes, he saw hundreds of creepy zombies running toward Nevermore.
“Not even the zombies from Black Ops 3 are this ugly,” commented Ajax, who, like his friend, had a surprised expression.
“Gross... Their skin and muscles are falling off as they run,” said Divina with a disgusted expression.
“How are we going to get to Nevermore without drawing the attention o...

Nevermore was bathed in the red light of the blood moon. The gothic school looked much more terrifying with the red rays of the strange lunar eclipse that was happening that night.
The school grounds were completely silent. Even in the four dormitories, no fly was buzzing, and they were in darkness. This abandonment in a school that houses hundreds of students was due to one reason: the lunar eclipse.
Over a month ago, the botany teacher died, and few know the trut...

Anthony arrived at the gas station before the Jericho police patrols. A corpse was lying near the gas pump.
The terrifying part was that the corpse had its head facing the opposite direction it should, and there was a hole near the chest—on the side of the heart.
Another gruesome detail was that near the body, there were two arms, two legs, and a bloodied head on the ground, scattered as if they were pieces of a Lego set.
'Those bastards. A torso and a heart...

Martha, an older woman with greasy hair and skin weathered by the years, was driving her old truck toward the gas station in Jericho. The vehicle, full of dents and rust, squealed as it stopped next to one of the fuel pumps.
As she got out, Martha shook her skirt and noticed the police patrol car parked nearby. Next to the vehicle, Officer Ritchie Santiago, a large-built woman with short black hair, watched the scene with attentive eyes. She was waiting for her partner to...

The small town of Jericho was surrounded by dense forests and rolling hills. On one of these hills was the cemetery: Harmony Hill.
The cemetery was located at the top of the hill on the western edge of the town, far from the center.
An iron gate welcomed visitors to the cemetery. If you ventured along the gravel paths, you would see the usual sights in a cemetery: granite tombstones, some covered in moss and others etched with names tha...

The days passed slowly. Classes and activities at Nevermore continued unchanged. The death of the botany teacher had been concealed, and everyone thought she had left the job due to personal reasons.
With each passing day, the lunar eclipse drew nearer. There were no signs of the hooded figures or the murderous Hyde. The regular people of Jericho breathed a little easier as the days passed without any murders, though the fear lingered within them, knowing the killer was still at large.<...

Luke dodged a dark blast at the last moment. His eyes were covered by a black blindfold. He was in the secondary gym, training with Wednesday, who was helping him improve his observation haki.
“You used telekinesis to dodge that hit. We said you couldn’t help yourself dodge with your yellow aura,” said Wednesday, annoyed that her attack had been evaded.
Although Luke’s movement was minimal, he was aided by a telekinetic wave that shifted him at the last second to dodge Wed...

"Incredible. Extracting memories from individuals is extremely difficult. For a fifteen-year-old to achieve it," said Larissa, who had watched the entire memory extraction process.
She was familiar with this advanced blue aura technique. It was rarely seen in action, as its primary use was to present evidence against an individual or a group of individuals.
She was also astonished when she learned that Luke possessed a blue aura. The boy had hidden it very well. For some reason, s...

Marilyn Thornhill walked through the hallways of Nevermore. She wore a colorful sweater, and black glasses, and had a kind smile on her face, even though no one saw her.
The students were already in their dormitories. Principal Weems had asked her to come to the office for a meeting about an important upcoming club competition that would be held at Nevermore in the next few days.
Marilyn used a friendly façade with her false identity, which she hated, as she despised outcasts to ...

"Well done," Edgar praised, looking at Luke, breathing erratically and sweating as drops fell from his forehead. He felt a strong migraine pounding in his head.
'His talent in all three auras is monstrous,' Edgar thought. Luke had managed to extract three memories on his first attempt, a challenging feat. Although it was true that Edgar had helped him.
'I feel like my head's going to explode,' Luke thought, bringing a hand to his temple. With his telekinesis, he controlled the via...

Larissa agreed. Ever since she read Luke’s mother's letter last year, she had been willing to help him with anything he asked for.
“If you could convince the principal to let us go, you would have done it before,” Wednesday remarked as they ...

Luke didn’t know that he had just escaped detection by Amaranth’s blood sense. His idea of coming with Wednesday and her stealth ability had been the right decision.
As for why Amaranth never detected him in Jericho when Luke was watching her and Deacon (the faceless one), it was because Luke had been observing them from kilometers away with his abilities. Amaranth’s range couldn’t detect him from such a distance.
From a distance of over 100 meters, Luke and Wednesday hid ...

During the last week of winter, the Outreach Day arrived. Two weeks had passed since Luke and Wednesday had decided on this course of action, and another murder had taken place.
In total, there had been four murders—well, actually five, but the Hyde failed to collect Jonah's mutilated part thanks to Luke and Wednesday, who stopped him.
Marilyn already had four parts collected for the ritual. If Luke went by the show, the teacher would need two more murders, since Tyler in the se...

Enid woke up and told Luke that she was fine. It was just fatigue and overtraining. Luke didn’t inquire much further and let her rest peacefully. It’s hard to look her in the face when just minutes ago, you kissed another girl. He went back to his room and collapsed onto his bed.
‘Why did I kiss her again?’ Luke thought, burying his face in his pillow.
The first kiss came from Wednesday. That was explainable, he couldn’t do anything to dodge it, although he actually coul...

The next day, Luke arrived at the secondary gym five minutes early. A few minutes later, Daphne and Veronica showed up, and when Veronica saw her friend leading her to Luke, she looked at her as if she had betrayed her.
"Why is he here?" Veronica asked, crossing her arms and looking at Daphne with a judgmental glare.
Daphne was her best friend and she knew she was distraught with Luke, so it felt like a betrayal to bring her here without her knowing.

‘Why did she block me on all social media?’ Luke thought angrily. It would have been much easier to send her a message. He had already beaten up Veronica's friends/sycophants and didn't want to approach to talk.
Besides, he noticed that Veronica looked at him and still ignored him. She kept talking as if nothing had happened.

Coincident or not, one of the officers was the same one who had interrogated Luke last year after the Raven Island incident. This officer had given Luke his contact information.

Hi everyone, I hope you are well.
Since I finished the Harry Potter story, I have been thinking about the next story, and I have several ideas in mind. As I can't make up my mind, you guys will do it.
I should clarify that the main focus will still be the WD story. I don't know when I'll be able to publish the new ff with enough advanced chapters.
