Wednesday clears the room of any sharp objects and figures out how to put on a show for Enid. before break the blonde had taught her about Netflix, and Wednesday knows that Enid has an account. she grabs Enid's laptop and opens it, she presses the things Enid taught her how to press and soon enough she's on Netflix.

the goth presses on the account with Enid's name on it and scrolls down through her continue watching.

"what are these brainwashing shows you're watching?" Wednesday questions

she shakes it off and clicks on one that she knows will keep Enid entertained while she's in this state. she presses play and puts the laptop on Enid's stomach, the pup's eyes instantly glow at the sight of the unicorns and pegasi on her screen.

Wednesday walk toward the door and she puts her hand on the door knob, she looks around and checks for any final things that she needs to get out of Enid's way and leaves.

she makes her way down to the Juliet dorms. all of the dorms at Nevermore have some sort of dark meaning to them, but the Juliet dorms are named after the girl who kills herself for love. the Juliet dorms are also private dorms that your parents have to pay extra for, they pay out of love. hence, Juliet dorms.

the Hadeons love their daughter enough to pay extra money for her to have her own dorm. more privacy, more space. Wednesday has always envied those who have Juliet dorms, but rooming with Enid isn't as terrible as she had expected.

it didn't take long for Wednesday to find Daeva's room. her door has her name on it, narcissism at its best. Wednesday looks around the halls to see if anyone is around and then she pulls her phone out to look at the time. 5:34 pm, Daeva should be at fencing practice.

Wednesday picks the door lock and it opens, the smell of Daeva's floral air fresheners that her mother most likely placed before leaving yesterday, hit Wednesday square in the nostrils.
she shakes it off and enters into the room, posters of half naked women, signs with Daeva's name on them and a few other things such as medals and trophies from swimming and fencing.

another thing in the room is Daeva's personal computer setup, which she left opened. Wednesday turns the light off and pulls out the UV light from her satchel. she glares it around the room and Daeva's finger prints shine brightly, she looks under the bed to find no secret compartments unlike Rowan's room.

with finishing her search of the premises, Wednesday sits down on Daeva's chair at her desk. she starts to look through the files on Daeva's computer but it's all nothing. at this point Wednesday has concluded one thing, Daeva is way smarter than Rowan.

Wednesday spins around the chair and Daeva is standing over her. Wednesday blinks as she's caught off guard by the girl and Daeva puts her hand on the goth's mouth and drags her outside.

"we can't talk here." Daeva whispers as she lets the girl go "follow me."

Wednesday follows Daeva all the way back to the nightshades secret library. once they were all the way down, Daeva turns around to face Wednesday.

"why were you in my room?" Daeva asks

"how did you know i was in your room to begin with?" Wednesday counters

"i have an alarm system set up. you stepped past the laser causing it to silently trigger, i got the notification that someone was in there and i went back." Daeva explains "your turn."

"i have reason to believe that you want me dead."

Daeva's eyes go wide and her eyebrows raise in disbelief of what Wednesday just confessed.

"you- you what?" Daeva questions if she heard it right

"do you want me dead?"

Daeva scoffs "why the hell would i want you dead Wednesday?"

Wednesday pulls her phone out and shows Daeva the photo that she was sent earlier in the day and Daeva shakes her head.

"what am i supposed to be seeing here?"

"this was taken by your desk during Psychology of Macabre. did you take this?"

"Wednesday i don't carry my phone around. it makes it easier for my father to track me" Daeva tells her

"track you? why would he want to be tracking you?" Wednesday questions

"i can't tell you that."

"well then, maybe i can force it out of you."

Wednesday reaches into her satchel and pulls out her taser, Daeva's eyes dart to it and she starts to back up. the electric current would rush into her head and mess with the telekinetic brain waves. Wednesday knows what effect it'll have on her.

"Wednesday, stop. i don't want to hurt you."

"then tell me what is going on it i will make sure to hurt you."

just then the Bianca comes down the stairs.

"what the hell is going on here?!"

the siren rushes down and sees the taser in Wednesday's hand and then she looks at Daeva who has a scared expression on her face.

"siren song her out." Wednesday tells Bianca

"i'm not siren song-ing anyone. Wednesday, put that away" Bianca says to her

Wednesday ignores her, keeping her eyes on Daeva who continues to back up as Wednesday continues to corner her. they backed up so much to the point where Daeva was now sitting down in one of the chairs that was against the wall.

"Bianca! tell her to stop!" Daeva calls out

"Wednesday, put the taser down"

Wednesday gets impatient and presses the taser against Daeva's neck, the electric current instantly rushing to her head. the telekinetic screams out in pain, Bianca pushes Wednesday off of Daeva, cutting the connection off.

Daeva drops to the floor with her hand on her neck, gasping for air. Bianca looks at Daeva and then angrily back at Wednesday.

"what the hell? what has Daeva done to you?"

"she's the stalker Bianca." Wednesday tells the siren

"bullshit! my father is a powerful man at the ministry of monsters and outcasts. he gave me a mission to keep the school at bay and an eye on you! that's why the cameras are set up this semester." Daeva explains as she gets up from the floor 

"i'm not your stalker, i'm your goddamn guardian angel. ever since last semester, Nevermore has been high on the ministry's radar. my father offered to help by putting me as intel. i work for the ministry, i could care less about you if you weren't my mission."

Bianca and Wednesday look at the girl as she inhales sharply, still in pain.

"who is your father Daeva?" Bianca questions

"Seymour Godwin."

"Seymour Godwin? as in General Godwin?" Bianca's eyes widen

Daeva nods. Wednesday gets up from the floor and Bianca slaps her shoulder.

"do you know what you just did? you just tasered the daughter of one of the most powerful men on the planet!" Bianca scolds

"the ministry has eyes on the school at all times. i've managed to loop the video on the cameras around and in Juliet hall," Daeva tells the two "he won't know you were there."

Daeva walks closer to Wednesday "i'm sorry to disappoint, but i'm not your stalker. i really am just an extra eye for the ministry. honest!"
