Work Text:
Hester Frump awoke in a dungeon cell, tied to a chair. She recognized this place as being one of the many cells below the Addams Manor.
"Hello, Hester," said an all-too familiar voice.
Enid walked into the cell with a scowl on her face.
"Enid," Hester regarded. "I see you've broken the spell."
Enid smirked as she said, "Well, Wednesday helped me realize that I don't need to change to get her to love me. I'm perfect exactly the way I am. And you don't get to tell me how to be anymore."
Enid's scowl returned as she took out a paintball gun. "You tried to take the color out of my life, Hester," she said. "Now we're gonna put color into yours."
"We?" Hester asked, confused.
"Yes, we," said Wednesday as she stepped into the cell with her own paintball gun.
And then more people came in: Yoko, Divina, Agnes, Pugsley, Eugene, Bianca, Ajax, Gomez, Morticia, Fester, Lurch, and Thing. All with their paintball guns aimed at Hester.
Hester's eyes widened as she took in the scene. "I suppose I should've seen this coming," she said.
"OPEN FIRE!" Enid yelled out, and everyone started shooting.
Within moments, Hester was covered in paint, of all the colors of the rainbow. There was some green on her left arm, blue and orange on her torso, some yellow and pink on her legs, and Wednesday shot some red paint square in her face.
After a full minute, the shooting stopped. A now colorful Hester remarked, "Alright, you've made your point. Are you satisfied now?"
Just then, Wednesday jammed the barrel of her gun right into Hester's mouth, declaring, "Not quite."
Morticia went to stop Wednesday, but Enid blocked her, saying, "No. Let her do this."
Wednesday gave Hester the darkest scowl she could muster as she said, "You almost took everything from me."
She shot paint right into Hester's mouth as she continued, "Enid almost lost herself because of you," punctuating her statement with another shot. "I'm going to make sure you pay for what you've done."
Wednesday shot three more times, feeling a twisted sense of vindication at listening to Hester choke and gag as her cheeks puffed out and some tears leaked out of her eyes.
Wednesday yanked the gun out of Hester's mouth as the latter started vomiting red paint all over herself.
"Okay, Wednesday, I think she gets it now," Enid said as she stepped forward, putting a hand on Wednesday's shoulder to calm her down.
Hester looked up at the two girls as Enid said, "We're gonna head up and have some fun now. Without you. You stay here and think about what you've done. And remember this..."
Enid's eyes turned yellow as her multicolored claws came out, pointing one at Hester's throat as she stated, "Next time, I won't use paint."
Everyone left the cell after that, leaving Hester to wallow in color.
