Wyatt and Y/n were walking in the quad hand in had when Bianca approached them.
"Come with me, please." She requests. "I have information about Mayor Walker's murder." She said in a low voice.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bianca and Y/n, Wyatt behind them walked up to the statue of Edgar Allen Poe and snapped their fingers twice revealing the passageway and walked down the stairwell where Lucas was waiting. He approached Wyatt nervously and handed him some papers.
"Printed these off my dad's computer. Seems like he was trying to track down someone...Laurel Gates, maybe? He seems to have done it right after Outreach day." Lucas explains.
"He must have recognized her there..." Y/n mumbles.
"According to the British Police report, Laurel was presumed dead by drowning, but no body was found."
Wyatt looked at the papers in his hand. "The Gates Mansion was purchased a year ago by some 90-year old candy heiress. She 'mysteriously' died and gave the property to her caregiver Teresa L. Glau."
Bianca and Lucas looked at each other confused.
"It's an anagram for Laurel Gates." Y/n explained. "Don't know why you would want to re-arrange letters in your name though...just change the name, makes life easier. You should leave the re-arranging the letters of your name to Voldemort." Y/n mutters.
"Who is Vol...never mind." Bianca sighed, used to Y/n breaking the fourth wall. "Laurel secretly buys her own house and then comes back to Jericho as someone else. Why?"
"Revenge on all the people she blames for her family's misfortunes." Wyatt looked at Lucas, "Your father, the corner, my parents. Most of all...Nevermore."
Bianca looked confused. "Okay...but how does the monster fit into all this?"
"The 'monster' is a Hyde, it's been doing Laurel's bidding." Wyatt told Bianca.
"Wait...what if Laurel is in the school? Secretly sneaking out to control Ty- the Hyde?" Y/n asks, fixing her slip-up.
"That's not possible Y/n. If the Hyde was in Nevermore we would know from the sounds and the patterns." Wyatt told her.
"Yeah...but of the Hyde was a normie with a past of Nevermore ancestors?" Y/n asks carefully biting her lip.
Wyatt looked at Y/n thoughtfully and suspiciously.
Lucas turned to Wyatt. "You know who Laurel is, don't you?" He asked Wyatt. Then turned to Y/n, "and you know who the Hyde is."

Dr. Kinbott paced around her office looking down at her phone when Wyatt suddenly opened the door and walked in.
"Wyatt? We don't have an appointment today." Kinbott said confused.
"I wanted to return something." Wyatt pulled Laurel's music box out, holding it out. "Found it in your child hood home."
Dr. Kinbott took the box from Wyatt and opened it.
"I know you're Laurel Gates, and you've come back to Jericho for your revenge...and so did Mayor Walker which is why you killed him." Wyatt accused.
Kinbott closed the music box and glared at Wyatt incredulously.
"I mean, who better to slide in and out of hospital undetected than a psychiatrist disguised to visit another patient."
"You're not accusing me of killing the Mayor, are you?" She asked in disbelief.
"The roses you left in Eugene's room were your mistake. They're the same variety I found by your childhood bed."
"I honestly have NO idea what you're talking about." Kinbott said scoffing.
"There is only one reason an overqualified psychiatrist like yourself would want to settle in Jericho. It allowed you to crawl through the troubled minds of young outcasts until you found one to plan your revenge." He accuses.
Kinbott shook her head. "You know what? I don't have time to deal with your delusional fantasies. I have a patient emergency."
She handed the box back to Wyatt and walked towards the door.
"Who Xavier? I know all about your secret meetings. I also found the cave where you have been unlocking and controlling the Hyde"
Kinbott's face twisted in anger. "You are so out of line right now!"
"Do you know how unpredictable Hydes can be? Or was it your plan to have Xavier commited before he could turn on you too?"
"Wyatt, you need help. More than I can give you." She said pulling out her phone.
"Who are you calling? xAvIeR?" Wyatt accused.
"Judge Reynolds." She replied. "I'm going to recommend you stay in a juvenile psychiatric facility for observation."
"oh pLeAsE. You and I both know that I'd be running that place in a week." Wyatt said and placed the box down. "Time is running out Laurel."

After Wyatt's little show, Kinbott phone Weems in a panic.
"Principal Weems, it's Valerie Kinbott. Wyatt Addams just barged into my office."
"I wasn't aware Wyatt had a session today."
"He didn't and his behavior was completely irrational."
Suddenly the sound of breaking glass sounded through Kinbott's office. She slowly removed the phone from her ear and stalked towards the door cautiously. She placed her hand on the door handle and twisted the handle opening the door, where she was met face to face with the Hyde.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the hospital, Wyatt and Principal Weems sat in the waiting room, waiting to hear about Valerie Kinbott's condition.
A few moments later, the Sheriff walked into the room and approached the two. Weems and Wyatt stood up to hear his news.
The Sheriff sighed and took off his hat. "She's gone, Dr. Kinbott is dead." The Sheriff said gravely.
Wyatt looked between the adults, his face hardening. "This ends now." He announced.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Xavier walked in the dark to his private studio. He opened the door and walked in, taking off his coat and hanging it up.
Suddenly, the light turned on and Xavier turned around to see Wyatt sitting holding the knife which had stabbed Thing.
Xavier scoffed at seeing him there. "You know what? You need to stay out of space."
"You need to take your own advice." Wyatt retorts.
He stabbed the knife into the stool next to him, and stood up. "You left that in my room, actually no, you left that inside Thing. How long have you been seeing Kinbott?" Wyatt interrogates.
"Have you...?" Xavier starts but stops himself with a scoff. "What am I saying? Of course you have. You've been spying on me, right?" Xavier asked taking the knife from the stool. "Cause I'm the villain in you fantasy, who is trying to steal your fair maiden." He said sarcastically.
Xavier placed the knife in his hands examining every detail. "You know, my father thinks my mental health is a PR problem that he needs to manage. He wanted to keep his troubled son out of the Tabloids. I wasn't in your room, believe me or don't believe me. I don't CARE."
Wyatt looked over Xavier's shoulder at the easel covered by a sheet. He walked past Xavier and stood right by it.
He turned to face Xavier. "Your painting's been improving. At least you're not painting me and my girlfriend. I enjoy this one in particular."
Wyatt pulled off the sheet revealing Dr. Kinbott's face in her final moments.
"Feels like you really lived it."
Xavier sighed, annoyed. "What do you want?"
"I'm asking the questions." Wyatt told him and walked to his desk. "What is Rowan's inhaler doing in your shed?"
Xavier frowned in confusion as Wyatt picked up more items he didn't even know was there.
"Or Eugene's glasses?"
"Woah, woah, woah."
"Or these stalker pictures you took of me. Some of them with Y/n?"
"N-n-no, I-!"
"Don't forget your latest addition. Dr. Kinbott's necklace." Wyatt smirked and held up the moon-shaped necklace.
"No, no, no. You've got it all wrong! Someone planted that stuff." Xavier insists.
Suddenly, the doors of the studio burst open as the Sheriff, and other police officers barged in pointing their guns at Xavier.
(I felt so bad for Xavier in this scene :()
"Freeze! Drop the knife. Down on your knees and hands behind your head." The Sheriff orders.
Xavier did as he was told.
"Cuff him." The Sheriff orders tilting his head at the officer.
"What?" Xavier gasps.
"You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law. You have the right to an attorney, if you cannot afford one, one will be provided to you." The Sheriff recites for probably the millionth time in his life.
He looked at Wyatt. "Appreciate the help, Addams."
Xavier glared at Wyatt in fury. "You! You framed me! I'm being set up, I should have let Rowan kill you. Y/n shouldn't even be around you!"
The officer led Xavier out of the studio and Wyatt watched with satisfaction as they dragged him to the police car.
