In a Quagmire

The misfortune begins

The Quagmires were your pretty average family or so you thought, first the father of the family Quinten Quagmire he had Jett black and charming brown eyes, He was an loyal husband and a great father to his children second is Karen Quagmire a very well-organized woman her chocolate brown hair was always tied into a tight bun but her friendly green eyes made her beauty shine, then there's the triplets Duncan, Quigley and Isadora Quagmire they were extremely bright children, Duncan the oldest had a passion for journalism and loved to write every single detail down , he had jett black hair and Gorgeous green eyes. He and Quigley were identical but, Quigley did not have the same passion for journalism like his dear brother did instead the middle triplet was interested with cartography. He would spend long summer afternoons studying the most fascinating maps, The youngest triplet Isadora looked like her brothers, but she had her mother's chocolate brown hair and honey hazel eyes, The youngest triplet loved poetry and especially adored couplets, she spends her days reading poetry such as Ogden Nash, Isadora wanted to write poetry books and publish her couplets when she got older it was her dream job.

The Quagmires were in the main living room, Karen and Quinten were discussing a secret topic about fires, Quigley was studying a globe Isadora reading a poetry book and Duncan was trying to eavesdrop on his parents' conversation "why do they keep talking about fires?" Duncan whispered a bit too loudly to Isadora "I know right!".

"We can hear you both" Karen laughed

"you'd both flunk eavesdropping in you were in my school" Quinten added

"What type of school teaches eavesdropping?" Quigley asked as he looked curiously to his parents

"Oh, never mind that child we have a surprise tomorrow, go get ready for ready for bed" Karen said and like that the quagmires hurried up to their bedrooms, Isadora went to bed and said goodnight to Duncan, she and Quigley got in a fight, and went to her room. "She is still ignoring me" Quigley whined "I have already told her I'm sorry I didn't mean to embarrass her Infront of Henry Lockwood"

"I'm sure she'd forgive you at breakfast" Duncan assured Quigley and while putting his arm on his shoulder. Quigley smiled to Duncan's kind gesture, Duncan and Quigley has always had a special bond they do still have one with Isadora, but their bond was a brother's bond. after that Duncan and Quigley went to their room and got ready for bed as the night creeped in. That night Quigley kept tossing and turning so he decided to get a drink, creeping out of his comfy bed, trying carefully not to wake up Duncan, he hurried to the kitchen and to his surprise found his mother "Quigley?" Mrs. Quagmire spoke "mum I can't go to sleep, I've been up all night"

"Oh, I know just the trick" Mrs. Quagmire said and went to heat apple cider for Quigley, Quigley went and grabbed a map of the finite forest and sat in the dinning room. A couple of minutes later Mrs. Quagmire came in with two apple ciders. Quigley drank the cider, the warm drink filled his stomach with the feeling of warmth, he felt comfortable. "Thank you, mother," Quigley said before continued drinking his drink. The next hour Quigley and his mother bonded. To Quigley's dismay, this was the last time he had a conversation with Mrs. Quagmire. Suddenly they heard glass break and smoke quickly filled the room. Karen's eyes filled with worry. "Quigley quick follow me" Quigley followed this mother to the library room she lifted a secret hatch and it led to a tunnel "get in Quigley ill get the others" Quigley nodded tears filled his eyes as he climbed down. "Mom! Dad!" Quigley heard Duncan and Isadora Scream. He decided that he didn't want to wait he started climbing up the ladder but apparently something has fell on the hatch. About an hour went by and all the screaming stopped he was alone. Quigley got up; he knew crying wouldn't help him he ascended into the darkness of the tunnel.

Duncan and Isadora were huddled together crying. A fireman came up to them "so sorry children we couldn't find your parents and your brother" he said sadly. Isadora put her head on Duncan's shoulder "I... I should of forgave Quigley." She sobbed, Duncan put his arm around her, he started to cry, he missed the comfort of his parents, Quigley's stubborn attitude and horrible jokes. He smiled remembering them. A man came up to them he coughed a lot "Excuse me Quagmire twins I have been told to send you two to Prufrock prep, you both will inherit the Quagmire Sapphires when you come of age. I am Mr. Poe banker" Mr. Poe said. "We are triplets" Isadora said. She could feel her anger rise "but didn't your other triplet brother die?" "Yes but" "so that would make you twins." The two Quagmire triplets sighed. Mr. Poe, Duncan, and Isadora headed to the car. Duncan leaned his head on Isadora's lap and slept, Isadora played with his hair, she wanted her parents and Quigley back, her heart ached she was mad at herself for not forgiving Quigley now that she thought of it, she didn't care about Henry Lockwood anymore.
