"What exactly do you mean 'Not the proudest.'?" Violet gasped. "You don't mean..the..Olaf.." Violet trailed off. "We've been trying to get away. They keep following us. Count Olaf is after you. You need to get out of here. He's coming." warned Samuel. "Wait.. You said you have a fortune too. This could be bad." said Violet. "He wanted us for OUR fortune, and the Quagmires. Wait! The new orphans! We have to run down to the orphan shack!" exclaimed Klaus.
It was a very sorry sight to see so many children running to the orphan shack on the grounds. Victoria and Samuel running ahead, then followed Violet and Klaus with Sunny crawling behind. They were determined to figure out a hint of truth in all this. If the Rubaley's were on Olaf's side, how did the Baudelaire's know they were even telling the truth?
They reached the door of the orphan shack. White paint peeling off and a broken handle. Samuel pounded on the door. "Yes?" squeaked a voice. "Hello. We are the other orphans at Prufrock. May we come in?" asked Violet. The door opened and they peeked inside. There were two girls. You would think they were younger, yet they were about the same age as them. "I'm Maria." said the girl who had opened the door. Another girl was on the pile of hay swatting off crabs. Swatting here means 'trying to keep the crabs from attacking the young girl.' "And I'm Elizabeth." the other girl said looking down at them from the haystack. "We need to ask you a question." said Victoria urgently. "Do you have a fortune?" they all asked at once, except for Sunny who had asked "Wegdiof?" The two girls looked at each other then back at the Rubaley's and Baudelaires. "Yes.. Why does that matter? Are you only going to be our friend now?" asked Elizabeth. "We won't give you any of it!" said Maria who seemed somewhat upset about it.
Everybody at least once in their life is friends or is nice to somebody only because of their money. Poor, poor Beatrice thought this and ran away.. for not too long though. Such a tragedy. Money is nothing compared to true love. True love of thy Beatrice. Oh what woe the Baudelaire's will encounter because of this.
"That's not the reason." said Violet. "We're being chased by Count Olaf who is after not only our fortune, but the Quagmire's, and now the Rubaley's. If he finds out, you'll be next." explained Klaus quickly. The two girls looked at each other. "Okay.. We believe you. But could you explain a little more? We're confused." said Elizabeth. They went on explaining Count Olaf, VFD, the fires, and everything they knew.
What a horrid little story they had to listen to. As I look through the Orphan Shack, I can imagine them standing here with a horrid look on their faces listening to it all. The paint is still peeling, the hay is dry, and the crabs weren't too happy with me intruding on their home. Intruding here means 'to barg into their home while looking for any clues of the Baudelaires that could possibly be in there.'
They were just about to explain about the good and bad side of VFD when the bell rang. "Oh no.." said Klaus. "I forgot about the man from the school board. He's coming today. He's probably just arrived!" The Baudelaires, Quagmires, and Maria and Elizabeth ran up to the school only to hear a twenty minute violin introduction. Soon enough though, Victoria was hitting Samuel to wake up. "I would like to present to you, a very good friend of mine, the head of the school board, Mr. Flout!" announced Nero. The audience clapped, though not very enthusiastically.
As the school returned to their dorms, the Baudelaires couldn't help but realize Mr. Flout looked very familiar.
