I created a bool value in player but now how would i change it with other scripts?

local weapona = Instance.new("BoolValue", player.Character)
weapona.Name = "WeaponActive"
weapona.Value = false           
--^^^^first script
--vvvv second script 
if Character:FindFirstChild("WeaponActive") == false then --Put .Value after ("WeaponActive")
    print("1")
elseif Character:WaitForChild("WeaponActive") == true then --Put .Value after ("WeaponActive")             
    print("0")
end

When using bool values and checking if there false or true you gotta do .Value after the boolvalue thats why it aint working
