Several criminal gangs were gathered in a grassy field near a large building while looking confused, as one of the gang leaders said, "Okay. Who is the anonymous person that called us all here in the middle of the night?" Suddenly, all the gangs heard a stern female voice say, "That would be me." The gang members turned their heads, and saw the adult gothic woman: Wednesday Addams stepping towards them. Wednesday looked at all the criminals before her as she said, "I have a question for all of you, and a message to share if my question is not answered. The question being... where is my granddaughter?"

All of the gang members stood looking either scared or confused, but all remained silent. Wednesday however began to look more angry as she said, "Don't try to play dumb with me. You all are the most influential and powerful gangs covering this entire region. You have knowledge of all criminal activities that occur within 60 miles from here, even if it's not your own. I am also completely aware of the drug smuggling, counterfeit money operations, and other illegal transactions that occur from your inter-gang headquarters that stands right behind me. I have always been aware of this, but allowed your criminal empire to exist; because any time the authorities spent trying to investigate your illegal activities kept them from having any time to investigate my less than legal activities. However, all that will change if you do not tell me everything you know about my granddaughter's abduction!"

Then one of the gang leaders tried to look brave as he said, "Stop acting all tough. What's one little woman gonna do if we don't say anything?" Then Wednesday took a dirty remote control out of her pocket, and then pressed a button on it while silently looking at the gang leaders with a deadly stare. Suddenly the entire large building that had acted as a criminal headquarters exploded behind Wednesday. A huge ball of fire immediately replaced the entire building, lighting up the area. The explosion even created a major wind that blew in everyone's direction. Wednesday however kept her deadly eyes completely fixed on the gang leaders as she slowly cleaned her hands, and then simply said, "Would you like to see what further messages I have to share if you don't answer my question again?"

"The Culmination"

Written by: "Fun But Shy Girl"

Harmony Addams sat in the back of a dark car, while pointing her phone towards her face. Harmony was in the midst of make a recording of herself on her phone as she said, "Hello. My name is Harmony Addams, the daughter of world famous outcasts: Enid and Wednesday Addams. I'm making this recording because if something is to happen to me... hopefully this recording will help set everything straight on what's happened. My wife Megan and I recently became foster parents to a young werewolf girl named Luna. Less than 24 hours ago she was kidnapped from our home. Someone or some people gassed our room and knocked us out. Now we are in the midst of trying to find Luna. My twin sister Ana meanwhile is on the way with her boyfriend Gerard, who is a ghost. Don't question how that works. It just does. Meanwhile, I'm riding with my wife and one of my moms in a car as we're looking into a lead my other mom recently got."

Suddenly Harmony heard her mom Enid say, "Harmony, lets not record worst case scenario messages, and just focus on the idea that we will get Luna back." Harmony then turned off her phone as she looked at her mom Enid sitting in the front seat driving the car, while Harmony's wife: Megan sat next to Enid. "I know," Harmony said, trying to swallow the fear that had crept into her voice. "But we have to be prepared for anything." Megan meanwhile reached over and took Harmony's hand, giving it a gentle squeeze as she said, "We're going to find Luna, I promise."

The car's engine hummed as they drove through the quiet streets of the city, the neon lights from the occasional open convenience store flickering through the windows. Eventually Enid said, "Look. There's the secret warehouse that Wednesday's informant told us of. I'll park on the outskirts of the property, and then we'll sneak in." Enid quickly parked the car, and soon Enid, Harmony, and Megan found themselves walking towards an old warehouse. Harmony could feel her pulse thumping in her ears as they approached the warehouse. They reached the warehouse doors, and Harmony noticed that they weren't even locked. She whispered to Enid, "Do you think this is a trap?" Enid simply replied by saying, "Probably... but we don't have much choice, do we?"

The three entered the warehouse, their steps echoing through the vast, empty space. Suddenly, a small private army filled with soldiers clad in black swarmed them, guns at the ready. Immediately the three woman were surrounded by dozens of soldiers, as one of the soldiers yelled, "Freeze! You're surrounded! There's nothing you can do." Enid however made a smirk as she said, "You know, you all made quite a major error in judgment when you decided to threaten two werewolves... on the night of a power enhancing full moon!"

The soldiers' expressions shifted from confidence to uncertainty as they looked up at the large, looming moon shining through a nearby skylight. The moon's powerful light cast a silver glow upon the trio, as Harmony and Enid felt an unstoppable force surging within them. With a snarl, Harmony felt her body morph, her bones cracking and reshaping. Her eyesight sharpened, and she could hear the panicked heartbeats of their adversaries. She watched as her mother's transformation was even more dramatic, her body growing even larger in size, fur sprouting from her skin, and teeth elongating into fangs. The air grew thick with the scent of fear and anticipation as the full moon's power reached its peak.

Megan, ever the prepared one, pulled out her crossbow, loading a silver tipped electrified arrow, showing that she wasn't going to stand by helplessly. She aimed it at the closest soldier, her eyes narrowing with determination. The soldiers, realizing they were facing powerful enemies, began to back away. But it was too late. Harmony and Enid had fully transformed, their snarls resonating through the warehouse. The clank of the crossbow echoed through the space, and the first bolt shot through the air, finding its mark.

The battle immediately became fierce and chaotic. Harmony, with her werewolf strength, threw herself into the fray, her teeth and claws tearing through their enemies. Enid, towering over them, swiped at the soldiers with a force that sent them flying into the air like ragdolls. Meanwhile, Megan's electrified arrows flew true, with every electrified arrow she shot stunning each soldier she aimed at. The sound of bones cracking and bullets flying filled the air, along with the howls of the enraged werewolves. The warehouse floor grew slick with blood and fur, and the smell of fear was palpable.

Suddenly, one soldier broke free from the panic, pulling out a stun gun. He took aim at the three powerful women, and fired the stun gun at Harmony, the electric prongs finding their way into her thick fur. Harmony let out a pained yelp as her body spasmed uncontrollably, dropping to the ground. The sight of her in pain spurred Megan and Enid into a new frenzy of anger, as they tried to fight back harder.

But before they could react, the soldier turned the stun gun on Enid. The electricity surged through her body, causing her to convulse and drop to the floor. Megan, now the only one still standing, took aim with her crossbow, her hand steady despite her fear. But before she could shoot, she felt the cold steel of a gun pressed to the back of her head. "Drop it," another solider behind her said, firm and unyielding. Megan slowly lowered her crossbow, her heart racing. "Good girl," the solider sneered, reaching out to grab her arm as he said, "You ladies are ours. No one can save you now."

But before anything else could happen, the air was pierced by the sound of a thunderous roar. Then suddenly, crashing in through a nearby window was a huge African lion being ridden by Wednesday Addams. As the lion landed on the ground, it roared at all of the soldiers. Wednesday meanwhile sat atop the lion with the stance of a warrior as she held out a dagger in her right hand.

Quickly, all of the soldiers began to point their weapons towards her. But before they could shoot, Wednesday moved her hands in and out of her pocket fast as she threw several daggers at her opponents. Every dagger Wednesday threw immediately hit the soldiers in their chests, causing them to fall to the ground while screaming in pain. For the remaining soldiers, Wednesday's lion dashed forward and immediately used his claws to rip through its' enemies.

As the lion pounced and swiped, the remaining soldiers stumbled over each other, trying to flee the carnage. Wednesday meanwhile remained a silent specter of death as she took out a long silver sword. Her blade was a silver streak as she moved it quickly, knocking out any nearby target that her lion couldn't get to in that very moment. She was surgical with her strikes, aiming for non-fatal points, but ones that would incapacitate and cause intense pain.

However, one remaining soldier stood far away, getting a large gun out, and pointed it at Wednesday as he said, "Say good night." Then suddenly without any warning, Wednesday's other daughter: Ana Addams burst in through the nearby broken window, and immediately kicked the soldier to the ground. Ana, who was wearing a purple ninja outfit, also wore special gloves with metal claws attached to them.

Ana immediately made an angry face as she yelled, "I was in the middle of enjoying a 90's Disney movie marathon, when suddenly I get a call telling me someone kidnapped my niece! So for the serious crime of kidnapping an innocent girl, and the additional crime of interrupting my viewing of A Goofy Movie, also known as the greatest Disney movie ever made, it's time for you all to face the werewolf martial arts champion!" Ana then immediately ran at any remaining soldiers she saw, and quickly used the metal claws attached to her gloves to hit the soldiers hard. As the soldiers lay on the ground extremely injured, a proud Ana yelled, "Also, no one screws with the Addams Family!"

Nearly every soldier was knocked out now, as Ana rushed over to make sure Enid, Harmony, and Megan were okay. As Ana looked a bit exhausted, she helped Harmony up while saying, "You all okay?" Harmony nodded as she said, "Yeah. Glad you and mother showed up just in time. I also see Grandma Morticia let you borrow her pet for the night. Although, are you okay Ana? You look pretty tired." Ana nodded her head as she said, "Yeah. I just need to eat something. I am really craving strawberry ice cream all of a sudden."

Meanwhile, one lone enemy was slowly starting to get up. However, before the lone soldier could do anything, Wednesday leaped off her lion, grabbed the soldier, pushed him into a wall, and then held her sword near his throat as she said, "Tell me... where is my granddaughter!?" The soldier looked at Wednesday with anger as he said, "I'll never give in to your demands outcast scum."

Wednesday began to look more angry as she moved her sword closer to the soldier's throat. However, a smiling Ana said, "Don't worry mother. There's quicker ways to make him talk. Hey babe, get in here!" Suddenly, Ana's ghostly boyfriend Gerard flew into the room as he said, "Hey. How did you know I just got here?" Ana smirked at Gerard as she said, "Oh, I always know when you're close sexy thing. But now that you're here, can you please make this douche bag tell us where Luna is."

Gerard smirked as he hovered near the lone solider, and held out his ghostly hands. The solider, now looking like a possessed zombie, simply said, "We were supposed to be a diversion, but were instructed to eliminate you if we could. The little werewolf girl you're looking for is not here." Then an angry Wednesday yelled, "Then where can we find her!?" The soldier then looked directly at Wednesday as he said, "At a secret laboratory hidden behind the governor's office."

In a large laboratory, Luna was sitting in a large chair, with metal restraints attached to her. Terror was in Luna's eyes, as a tall scientist stood in front of her with a maniacal smile on his face. As Luna trembled in her chair, she asked, "Who are you?" The lead scientist proudly looked down as he said, "Why little one, don't you remember me? I am Doctor Franks, and also, in a way... I am your father. I created you in a laboratory similar to this one. Come now. Don't you remember?"

As Luna looked around, she said, "I... I don't remember anything from when I was a baby." Doctor Franks then looked a bit disappointed as he said, "Really? You don't remember all those tests we did, and all those needles we stuck in you all those years ago? Quite a shame. At least you don't remember my assistant who became too attached to you, and didn't see the importance of my vision. She dared to think you deserved to live in a normal home, and sneaked you out of here, thrusting you into the foster care system. But now, we shall continue our experiments where we left off. Now sit there, while I prepare my tools."

As Doctor Franks walked over to a nearby table, he saw a shadowy figure walking towards him. As Doctor Franks looked at the figure, he said, "Isn't this so exciting Governor Dalton!? We are on the cusp of making history today!" From the shadows, Governor Dalton Davis stepped out as he said, "I am very much looking forward to using any means to put Wednesday Addams and all outcasts in their place. But... using a child to do it... this feels like too much."

Suddenly, Dalton heard a loud female voice inside his head yell, "Do not defy my plan!" Dalton suddenly fell to the ground as he yelled in pain. As Dalton began to curl into a ball, he heard the voice inside his head yell, "I am Lilith Morningstar, daughter of Satan. You gave your soul to me years ago for your political power. Now the time has come to fulfill your end of the deal. Understood?" Dalton then slowly stood up, looking calmer as he said, "Yes Lilith. Of course."

Outside of a large government building: Enid and Megan were hiding behind a set of bushes. Megan looked a bit anxious as she said, "When are we gonna bust into there?" Enid glanced at Megan as she said, "Wednesday and Harmony went in first, and they'll give us the signal for when we'll follow." Then from nearby, Ana and Gerard rushed over to the group as Gerard said, "Okay. We're here." Ana meanwhile looked a bit guilty as she said, "Sorry guys. I was just... feeling a bit sick, and had to use the bathroom longer than I thought I would."

Enid then looked at Ana with concern as she said, "Ana, are you okay? You've been eating a lot more food than usual the last few days, and then keep running to the bathroom saying you're sick. Are you getting stressed over something and binge eating?" Ana then looked very nervous as she said, "No. It's not that. It's... something else. You see..." Then Gerard suddenly interrupted Ana as he said, "Tell them later Ana. We have an important mission we gotta finish first." Then suddenly Enid heard a beeping noise on her phone. Enid then had a determined look on her face as she said, "That's the signal. Lets go!"

Inside the large laboratory, Dalton was reluctantly pushing Luna down onto an operating table, as Doctor Franks was injecting a glowing liquid into her via a needle. As Doctor Franks injected all of the contents from the needle, he glanced at Dalton while yelling, "Hold her down Governor Davis. If this doesn't succeed, our shared master can take away all your power if she so deems." Dalton looked troubled as he kept Luna pinned down. Then a moment later, Luna suddenly looked asleep, while Doctor Franks smiled and said, "Excellent. Finally, my creation is about to come to life!"

Suddenly, an explosion was heard, and then a nearby wall came down. Dalton and Doctor Franks turned their heads, and saw standing on the other side of the demolished wall was Wednesday, Enid, Harmony, Ana, Megan, and Gerard. A furious and angry Harmony immediately yelled, "Get away from my little girl!" Doctor Franks however made a devious smile as he said, "Excellent. Perfect timing. My pet... the time has come for you to wolf out into your ultimate form!"

Immediately Luna sat up, her face looking like that of a zombie, and her body began to turn into that of a werewolf. However, rather than transform into a child like werewolf, Luna grew into a very large werewolf that stood at thirty feel tall, with her large body immediately breaking through the roof of the building. Luna's eyes soon turned red, and then her wolf claws became very large and sharp, and she quickly roared at everyone. Harmony and Megan both looked horrified, while a furious Wednesday yelled, "What the hell have you done to my grandchild!?"

Suddenly, Dalton stepped towards Wednesday while holding a gun out. As Dalton kept his eyes fixed on Wednesday, he said, "My day of revenge has finally come Wednesday Addams! You ruined my life all those years ago when you unleashed those piranhas on me in that high school swimming pool! Now I shall..." Suddenly, without Dalton realizing it (due to his complete focus on Wednesday), Enid sneaked up behind Dalton, and quickly hit him in the back of the head with a frying pan. Dalton immediately fell to the ground knocked out, as an angry Enid yelled, "Don't you ever threaten my wife!"

Meanwhile Doctor Franks was looking at Luna as he yelled, "Go my creature! Destroy the city!" The giant werewolf monster that was Luna nodded her head, and than marched out of the building and towards the city. Meanwhile, Harmony had her hands turn into werewolf like claws as she grabbed Doctor Franks and shoved him into a wall. Megan meanwhile pointed a crossbow at Doctor Frank's head as she said, "Tell us what you did to our little girl, or you're gonna experience a world of pain!" Doctor Franks put on a brave face as he said, "You freaks and freak sympathizers don't scare me!"

At the same moment, Ana and Gerard were chasing after Luna, while Ana yelled, "Come on Luna! I love re-enacting famous movie scenes more than anyone, but now is not the right time to be re-creating that insane city attack scene from Godzilla: Minus One!" Meanwhile Gerard floated right behind Luna as he said, "Let me see if I can use my ghostly abilities to possess Luna, and then calm her down." Gerard then closed his eyes as he held his hands behind Luna. However, Gerard suddenly heard the voice of Lilith Morningstar say, "Nice try ghostly boy. But you can't possess a creature if the daughter of Satan is already possessing it herself!"

Gerard, trying to focus his mind on Luna's mind, said, "You! How are you doing this!?" Gerard could hear Lilith laugh, and then say, "Doctor Franks didn't just use science to manipulate this girl! He also used a special form of mystic alchemy, which I taught him. Now, after over a century and a half, I finally get to control a member of the Addams lineage, and shall use them to wreak havoc on this world!"

Gerard then turned to look at everyone else as he yelled, "Guys! Luna isn't just under weird mind control. She's being possessed by Lilith Morningstar, daughter of Satan! I can't use my powers to stop her." Then Enid ran towards Luna as she yelled, "Well maybe I can!" Enid immediately turned into a werewolf, and she tried to use her werewolf strength to fight against Luna. Ana meanwhile tried to throw some strong rope at Luna to trip her up. However, both Enid and Ana were barely able to get Luna to stop moving.

Meanwhile, Harmony still had Doctor Franks pinned to a wall as she yelled, "Talk you mad scientist!" Then Megan moved her crossbow closer to Doctor Franks' face as she yelled, "How do we fix our little girl!?" Doctor Franks however, made an evil grin as he said, "You can't force me to say anything. I serve the mighty Lilith Morningstar. Nothing can scare me!"

Suddenly, Wednesday moved towards Doctor Franks, and without a single word, grabbed Doctor Franks by the collar, and then slammed him down onto the floor. Wednesday then literally stood on top of Doctor Franks with one foot on his chest, and then pointed a sword at his face. "You have no idea who you are dealing with," Wednesday hissed, her voice filled with a venom that sent a shiver down his spine. Doctor Franks now began to look slightly nervous as he said, "What are you talking about?"

Wednesday then gave a deadly glare into Doctor Franks' eyes as she said, "I can see you are a man with no redeeming qualities. Due to this, I assume you believe you are indeed headed to hell one day, and simply wished to make nice with your future eternal master. However... Lilith Morningstar is not the ruler of hell, or even an assistant ruler of hell. You see, I've been to hell... literally... and Lilith Morningstar was nowhere to be seen when I was there. This is because she is a washed up wanna be ruler that's just trying to cause chaos on Earth, because it's the only power she has left. But I had a recent seance with some people I know in the underworld, and do you want know who recently did a hostile takeover of hell, and is now ruler of it? The answer is... my grandmother! So unless you try to redeem yourself now, you are about to spend an eternity being tortured by the woman who has always called me her favorite grandchild!"

Doctor Franks suddenly began to look very nervous as Wednesday's sword moved very close to his throat. A panicked Doctor Franks then yelled, "I don't know for sure how to undo what I did to that little werewolf girl, honest! But maybe you all can somehow break her free of my chemicals and Lilith's possession if you try hard to connect with her soul. I mean... you are connected to her by blood."

Harmony looked very confused as she said, "What are you talking about? We're not connected to Luna by blood. Me and Megan are her foster moms. We're not her actual biological parents." A still nervous Doctor Franks then said, "No. You see Lilith was obsessed with creating some sort of clone of Wednesday Addams, because she had a hyper fixation on controlling a member of the Addams lineage, even if it was an artificial being. However, when I was first trying to create a clone of Wednesday, I couldn't get any of her DNA. So instead, I obtained some DNA from the next best person I could... one of her daughters."

As Harmony saw Doctor Franks looking right at her, a startled Harmony said, "Me? Hold on. You're saying you created Luna from my DNA!?" Doctor Franks sighed, and then said, "Well, it was my first time trying to create a clone of an outcast. The procedure was unstable. So I had to mix in DNA from a normal person as well, to fill in a few blanks in my process. So out of convenience, I also stole DNA from the first normal person I could find that was near you."

As Megan saw Doctor Franks looking at her now, a startled Megan said, "Wait. Me? You mean Luna is a mixed clone that was created from both Harmony's DNA and my DNA!?" Harmony's eyes widened as she said, "My God Megan. Then that means all this time... Luna truly was our daughter!" Then, without any hesitation, Harmony and Megan immediately ran towards Luna with desperation in their faces.

Meanwhile, Luna (in her large monster like werewolf form) was thrusting her claws at buildings across the city, causing great damage. However, Enid was trying to fight back against Luna in her werewolf form, while Gerard tried to distract Luna (by flying all around her), and Ana kept trying to use rope to trip Luna up. Megan and Harmony meanwhile ran up to the towering werewolf creature with determination in their eyes. Harmony immediately called out, "Luna! Can you hear us!?" The creature that was Luna paused, tilting her head slightly. The chaos around her didn't cease, but she looked at the two women with a flicker of something almost human in her red-lit eyes.

"Luna, it's us! It's your moms!" Megan yelled, her voice shaking with hope and fear. "You don't have to be this monster! You don't have to listen to Lilith! You're our daughter! We love you with all our hearts!" The giant werewolf took a step back, looking down at them with confusion. Her massive claws hovered in the air, unsure of what to do next. Harmony took another step forward, her voice calm and soothing as she said, "You've never been alone. Not since the moment we laid eyes on you. We've always been your family. We love you. We need you."

For a brief moment, the red in Luna's eyes dimmed, and the chaotic energy surrounding her grew still. However, in Luna's mind, Lilith's voice yelled, "You have no mothers. These are just your glorified babysitters. You are a monster without a home, and always will be!" Upon hearing Lilith's words, Luna roared in frustration, her claws swiping at the air, trying to fight the possession that controlled her. Her movements grew erratic, and she stumbled, her massive paws slamming into the concrete below.

Ana watched from the sidelines, her eyes wide. "Guys, I think you both are doing something to her!" she called out, but her voice was lost in the cacophony of the city in distress. "Keep talking to her!" Enid instructed, her teeth bared as she continued to hold off the creature. Megan meanwhile reached out a tentative hand, and to everyone's shock, Luna didn't attack. Instead, she took a step closer, her monstrous visage seeming to soften just a bit. "We're here for you," Megan said, her voice steady despite her trembling hand. "We're not going anywhere."

Luna's snarling face grew sad, and she whimpered, a sound that broke through the battle like a shard of glass. The ground beneath her paws cracked with the force of her emotions. Harmony took the opportunity to step closer, her hand reaching up to touch Luna's fur. "You're not a monster sweetie," she murmured. "You're just lost. And we're going to help you find your way back."

The creature looked at her with a mix of anger and sadness, and for a second, it seemed like the battle might end peacefully. But then, with a final, earth-shaking roar, Luna's eyes flashed back to a fiery red, and she lunged at Megan and Harmony with a ferocity that sent chills down everyone's spines. Wednesday however suddenly appeared, and walked towards Luna as she yelled, "I know how you feel Luna!"

Luna then suddenly stopped herself mid-lunge, and turned to look at Wednesday. Wednesday meanwhile looked up at Luna with both humbleness and strength in her eyes as she said, "My granddaughter, you may feel stronger being alone and having no attachments! I felt that way once too. But then I met your Grandma Enid, and slowly I learned... the greatest strength I ever gained came from allowing those worthy into my heart... just as you must do now with your mothers!"

"We love you!" Harmony shouted at Luna. "We're family!" Megan yelled as she lovingly looked into Luna's eyes. The creature paused again, as the words seemed to resonate within her. The red in her eyes flickered, and for a brief moment, a glimmer of the sweet little girl they knew shone through. "Luna," Megan said, her voice trembling. "You're not lost anymore." The creature stumbled back, her massive form shaking. She then looked down at everyone with a mix of fear and confusion.

Meanwhile, Lilith's voice could be heard inside Luna's head saying, "Don't listen to them! You are my creature of chaos. You belong to me!" Then suddenly, Luna's voice could be heard saying, "No. I belong... to my family! Leave me... and leave this world... FOREVER!" Suddenly, there was a flash of light, and Luna stumbled back. Everyone could suddenly hear Lilith's voice scream, as her spirit could be seen coming out of Luna and then exploding in a bright light. The red glow in Luna's eyes immediately faded away, and she quickly transformed back into the little girl they knew, her eyes wide with shock and fear.

Harmony and Megan quickly wrapped up Luna in a blanket, and then immediately hugged her with all the love and affection they had. Gerard then hovered down near Ana, smiling as he said, "I can sense it... Lilith is gone from this plain of existence, and has no influence over anyone now. Luna just defeated the daughter of Satan!" Ana then smiled as she looked at Harmony and Megan while saying, "No... it was the love of a family that did it."

Meanwhile Luna looked at Harmony and Megan with both confusion, happiness, and tears as she said, "Moms?" A happy Harmony immediately said, "Yes Luna. We're your moms, and we always have been." Then a very loving Megan said, "And we are always gonna be here for you forever."

Suddenly, everyone heard Dalton's voice say, "Forever may be shorter than you think." Everyone then turned their heads and saw a bruised Dalton standing up, and pointing a gun right at the back of Wednesday's head. Everyone looked scared, as an angry Dalton yelled, "Nobody move! I've got you all in my view this time! None of this ends until I finally get my revenge."

As Wednesday turned to look at Dalton with a calm deadpan fan, an upset Enid yelled, "What the hell are you doing? Lilith is gone now, and Luna is back to normal! Your plan failed!" An angry Dalton then yelled, "Doctor Franks' plan failed, and Lilith's plan failed! However, I was just along for their ride so I could reach this moment! The moment I finally rid the world of this outcast scum!"

With the gun pointed to her face, Wednesday remained completely calm as she said, "This may surprise you Dalton... but before you potentially end my life, I just want you to know... I'm sorry." Dalton immediately looked very surprised as he said, "What?" Wednesday then looked right into Dalton's eyes as she said, "You tied my brother up and stuffed him into a locker. That was indeed wrong, and deserved some form of retaliation. However, that retaliation should've been some form of equally painful punishment, such as spending a night trapped in the school boiler room. Instead, I wished to crush you, the same way my pet scorpion was crushed so long ago. In doing so, I escalated the tensions between you and my family by enacting a vengeance that took things too far. So for that... I apologize."

Dalton now began to look much more angry as he said, "No! You don't get to play redeemed saint now! You're still a menace to society. All outcasts are! It's my mission to set the world right! It's my mission to make the world perfect!"

Wednesday now began to show some anger in her face, as she boldly took one step towards Dalton while saying, "Then tell me Dalton. What happens when you finally get everything you want? Tell me: what happens when you finally kill me, kill any other outcasts in your way, or remove anyone that opposes you? Will the world be a perfect utopia then? Well, I'll tell you this. It can't be if you're still in it... because a utopia has no place for criminals, thieves, and attempted murderers... which you are. I mean for Christ's sake, you allowed the daughter of Satan to get a foothold into your brand new society you were trying to make, just because you were so desperate to reach your own ends. Once you got rid of me and all outcasts, did you think Satan's daughter was going to give the keys of the world back to you!? I mean... look around. Look at what your perfect utopia was about to be built on!"

Dalton's hand holding the gun began to shake, as he looked around. For the first time, he took a strong look at the damage that Luna has caused in her monstrous werewolf form earlier. Tons of damage was all over the streets and nearby buildings. Debris lay all over, as emergency responders were helping many injured normal people out of their damaged buildings. As shock began to enter Dalton's eyes, Wednesday said, "You helped make this destruction happen Dalton. Look at all the people whose lives have been damaged. How many normal people, that you apparently want to protect, have to be hurt before your ends can no longer justify your means?"

Dalton's body then began to shake as his grip on the gun loosened. He looked directly at Wednesday, her eyes unflinching. Suddenly, several police officers arrived on the scene, and saw Dalton still pointing his gun at Wednesday. One of the police officers looked confused as they said, "Governor Dalton. What are you doing?" Dalton then reluctantly put his gun down as he said, "I'm no longer governor... because as of this moment... I resign from my position... just as I must also resign from the belief that I was ever a decent human being." Wednesday then looked directly into Dalton's eyes as she said, "Dalton... you've just taken the first step to becoming one."

Several days later, many members of Harmony and Megan's extended families were together at a large outdoor party in the park. As many people were sitting close together at various picnic tables while talking and eating, Wednesday and Enid sat at one picnic table that was some distance away from everyone else. Enid smiled as she said, "Wow. Everything just came together perfectly today. Originally this was going to be Luna's adoption party, but now it gets to be a special event where we get to reveal to our families that she was Harmony and Megan's unconventionally created biological daughter this whole time."

Wednesday then raised her eyebrows as she said, "That was certainly difficult to explain to the judge at the adoption hearing this morning. However, thanks to our family's track record with unconventionally created offspring, it wasn't too difficult for the court to accept."

Enid then leaned her head on Wednesday's shoulder as she said, "Wednesday... thank you for this beautiful family you've given me. I am forever grateful that all those years ago, you chose to open your heart to me... and then gave me so much in return." Wednesday then turned to look at Enid as she said, "I know... and thank you... for giving me so much more." Then Wednesday and Enid closed their eyes as they began to kiss one another.

Meanwhile, Luna was sitting between Harmony and Megan at a picnic table. Luna looked a bit nervous as she said, "So... am I gonna turn into a big scary monster again?" Megan then put an arm around Luna as she said, "No. Part of Doctor Franks' plea deal with the court was him giving you that medicine yesterday that'll make sure he can no longer control you or turn you into a giant monster." Then a smiling Harmony put her own arm around Luna while saying, "Although, you're the first successful werewolf clone ever made, so we may learn in time that you have some cool powers that no other werewolf has."

Luna then tilted her head down as she sadly said, "So if I was made in a lab with your DNA without you both knowing... does that make me some kind of accident? Was I never supposed to be created?" Harmony and Megan immediately both hugged Luna together, as Megan lovingly said, "No Luna. Never ever think that." Then, with a warm voice, Harmony said, "Learning that we suddenly had a daughter manufactured from our DNA was a surprise to us... but you are no accident. Every life is important, and every person is so precious. We don't care how you came into our lives. The point is, you are in our lives now. You're our daughter, we're your moms, and we're gonna love you forever. That's all that matters now."

Then suddenly everyone heard Ana's voice yell, "What's happening party peoples!?" Everyone then turned their heads, and saw Ana standing on a nearby stage while holding a microphone. Ana had a big smile on her face as she said, "I just wanted to be the first person with a microphone to say... Luna... we're so glad to finally have you officially and legally be a permanent member of our family now. We all love you so much girl!" Everyone then immediately applauded, as Luna began to make a big happy smile.

As the applause died down, Ana continued her speech as she said, "Now Luna, as you start to grow up, you are inevitably going to start having some disagreements with your two moms. But that's okay. Everyone in the world disagrees with their family, friends, and neighbors at some point. However, whenever those conflicts and disagreements crop up, you and everyone here, just have to remember the importance of working things out; not with hatred, but with love. I mean, I always have to remind myself that if a wall should ever come between any of us... too high to climb, too hard to break through; I know that love will lead us, and find a way to bring me to you. So don't be in a hurry. Think before you count us out. You don't have to worry. I won't ever let you down."

Then a confused looking Harmony whispered, "Hold on. Is Ana just quoting that final song from A Goofy Movie?" Suddenly, Gerard floated over next to Harmony as he whispered, "Shh. We watched the movie three times this past week. She just needs to get this out of her system." Then suddenly, Ana's cat jumped on top of a nearby sound system, and began pressing buttons with his little paws. Then loud music began to play, as an excited Ana sang, "If we listen to each other's heart, we'll find we're never too far apart; and maybe love is the reason why, for the first time ever we're seeing it eye to eye!"

Then Ana's cat jumped onto the stage, as an excited Ana yelled, "Hey Stormageddon the Conqueror, do the perfect cast!" Then Ana's cat jumped up, and began to shake two of his paws around, as he happily yelled, "Rowr!" Meanwhile, Harmony and Megan happily brought Luna onto the stage with them. Megan and Luna began to dance next to Ana's cat, while Harmony grabbed a nearby microphone. Then a gleeful Harmony and Ana stood beside one another as they both happily sang, "If you're ever lonely, stop. You don't have to be. After all it's only a beat away from you to me. Take a look inside and see!"

Then Harmony and Megan both lovingly lifted an excited Luna up, as the two young moms (with Ana) all began to happily dance together while they sang, "If we listen to each other's heart, we'll find we're never too far apart; and maybe love is the reason why, for the first time ever we're seeing it eye to eye!" Then everyone watching began to clap their hands. Ana meanwhile excitedly waved, while a very happy Harmony and Megan simply took a moment to give another loving hug to their beautiful daughter.

A half hour later, Ana was sitting at a picnic table while Gerard floated near her. As Ana was in the midst of eating an entire gallon of strawberry ice cream, she watched Harmony and Megan from afar dancing with Luna. Tears appeared in Ana's eyes, and her voice became over emotional as she said, "Look at them Gerard. Having a child is just so beautiful. It just brings so many wild happy emotions to the surface!" Gerard smirked as he said, "That it does."

Suddenly, Wednesday and Enid walked over to Ana, and sat in front of her. Enid then looked at Ana with concern as she said, "Ana... we're a bit worried about you. You've been a bit... extra unusual recently." Wednesday then crossed her arms as she said, "To make it clear, this past week you've consumed nearly all food in our kitchen pantry, and have been consistently making a mess in the family bathroom. Not to mention you have been showing an extra degree of... uncomfortable positive emotion. As your mothers, we believe an explanation is necessary."

Ana now began to have a slightly guilty look on her face as she glanced at Gerard. Gerard sighed, and then said, "Just tell them." Ana turned to look back at her two mothers, and then reluctantly said, "Do you remember how you both told me when I was a little kid to never consume any of the plants in Grandma Morticia's garden?" Enid nodded her head, and then said, "Yeah. I mean, I know they smell like very nice spices at times, but Grandma Morticia's plants are filled with unknown mystical properties. We should know, because your mother once consumed those plants, and wound up creating you and your sister all those years ago."

Ana now began to look more nervous as she said, "Well... I was looking for something to make my tacos taste better the last time I was visiting Grandpa Gomez and Grandma Morticia, so I... just sprinkled in a few grinded up pieces of some nice smelling plants I found in Grandma Morticia's garden." Wednesday and Enid both immediately looked worried, as Wednesday said, "Ana, my mother's plants contain rare elements known only to the descendants of ancient witches. If you consumed them, any sort of unpredictable outcome could occur to your body." Then Gerard spoke up as he said, "Trust me, you don't know the half of it."

Ana's face now began to look very nervous, as a concerned Enid said, "Ana... tell us... what's going on?" Ana then looked directly at Wednesday and Enid as she said, "Mom... mother... I'm pregnant."

TO BE CONTINUED!!!

*Note from Author - How about that for a cliffhanger!? Although, I sadly have to say you'll have to wait awhile for the next chapter, as I'll be taking a month off from posting new chapters in this series (give or take a week). This is not because I've run out of ideas, but rather because I need more time to make the next batch of chapters. The truth is: earlier this year, I had several chapters ready to go several weeks before I started publishing new chapters weekly. This gave me plenty of leeway, in case life got busy and I needed to take a week or two off from writing. However, life caught up to me the last few weeks, and I had to write these last few chapters close to the last minute.

I know no one has demanded or begged me to write new chapters of this series on a weekly basis. However, in a day and age where so many streaming shows have short seasons with multi year breaks in between, I enjoy being one of the few bringers of entertainment out there that you can depend on to provide consistent weekly fun. Also, I am so proud of the fact that in a series of mostly episodic adventures, I was able to create a 20 chapter story arc that I planned completely in advance, and was able to space out over the course of half a year. It was difficult but so much fun! However, in order to keep quality up, and keep myself a little less stressed, I need to month off. However, I hope that insane cliffhanger I left you on will work as an extra reminder to come check back in around a month from now. See you all then!

*Also, for people out there that are fans of "A Goofy Movie"... I leave you this...
