chapter 4

We are now going across water to their Aunt Josephine. We crossed the water and I played with Sunny. Mr. Poe was talking but I ignored him playing with the little girl finally happy we are okay. We got to the docks and walked to her house well a cab but. We got there and it didn't look safe the house was hanging off the cliff "this don't look safe" I told Klaus and Violet. Before we could knock Aunt Josephine opened the door then started talking about a hurricane about to come. We where about to walk in but she freaked "what, what's the mater" Violet and Klaus asked. "You could get hurt come in quickly just not to quickly" she said we got in and it was cold I looked at Violet who was holding Sunny and we gave each other a weird look. "Do you want the heat on" Violet asked when Josephine said it was cold "no im afraid the house will catch on fire" she said "oh and don't use the doornods just push" she added "why" Klaus asked confused "because im afraid it'll shadder in my eye" She answered My eyes widen and Sunny gurgled "Someone's been to crazy town" which she is right. "Deldo is not a word i see im gonna have to teach her english" Josephine said. "She's a baby" I muttered but loud enough for her to hear "oh i know but never to early to learn" the she talked about grammer and how she loved it. "Isn't it great" She asked us talking about the grammer we all stuttered a ya or yes. Sunny gurgled again "she is the major of crazy town" but we pretended we didn't hear her but inside i was dying of laughter. We sat at the table for dinner and Josephine made cucumber soup "oh nice hot cumber soup" Violet said "oh actually its cold im afraid the oven will go into flames. Where is Klaus" She asked freaked out I pointed in the kitchen "klaus get out of there what are you doing" She asked "napkins?" Klaus asked confused. Josephine pointed at the napkins on the table. Klaus walked over to us and stood by me as Josephine got out a book She showed us pictures and stuff from the old days and a picture that had Violet, Klaus and Sunny's mum and dad and I swear I sole my mum too then it got dark when she said her boyfriend got aten by leaches and she said I'll show you which freaked me out. She pulled a big curtain and thair was waters outside it was pretty. Then she pointed to where he died and what they looked like and I got scared "i told him ike you must wait 1 hour... But he only wait 45 minutes" she weeped and I jumped away and she grabbed Violet. Klaus wandered away "klaus?" She shouted when she sole him she calmed down. "Do you ever wanna move" I asked kindly "no im afraid" she muttered. People showed up at the door "I'll be back" she muttered afraid. I went over to Klaus and Vi went to Sunny. "Well.. I feel like this place will fall off the clift in seconds" I said Klaus smiled shaking his head. Then he pulled towards him and kissed my head. Then we heard a scream "we really need to get her out of the house" klaus said I just nodded my head "we should try the market" Violet said and after a bit we did to the market.
When we went we had to watch out for everything because Josephine was freaked out. Sunny accidentally dropped stuff so I went over to help her. "Don't worry everything is fine" Violet said to her Aunt then she squealed I looked up and sole she ran into a sailer wait no that's Count olaf in a discise. Oh no. I held sunny's hand as we walked to them. "Oh aloue me to introduce myself" olaf said in a different voice. "No aloue Klaus, Tamara and I to introduce him" violet said in the middle of them "klaus Tamara and Me" Her aunt corrected her "it doesn't matter this is.." Violet tried to say "it doesn't matter" Olaf said in a offended voice "grammer is the most important thing in the world to me" olaf said leaning closer to Josephine oh no I looked at Sunny in discussed and she did the same and gurgled "is she desprite". "it is" she asked in a dreamy voice. Then he talked weirdly to her and it freaked me out "captain sham at your service" Olaf said taking his hat off and bowing "no" I said "he's lying he's count Olaf" Klaus said glaring at the man "that horrible man you warned me about. Where, who" Josephine said startled and looked around "in front of you" me and Violet said as she pointed at him with a are you crazy face but olaf played dumb and looked behind him. When Josephine didn't find him and olaf played dumb Violet looked pretty angry and annoyed same with klaus. "He's lying" klaus said annoyed then walked over to olaf I was gonna grab him but I was too late "klaus" I said "Im not going threw this again" Klaus told me and pushed Olaf over causing the man to fall over then he pulled the pant leg down to see Olaf left ankle for the tattoo but it was a wooden leg causing Klaus to widen his eyes in surprise I was also surprised. I went over to Klaus and pulled him by the arm over to Violet and Sunny. Olaf pretended to be hurt and Josephine freaked out helping him up. I watched the 2 weirded out a bit. "That's gonna leave a mark in the morning" olaf groaned. Then olaf talked about how his leg was chewed off by leaches what a fake and Josephine felt bad and they got really close. Klaus rolled his eyes and Violet looked away mad I just glared at them annoyed already. They where being mushy ew me and Klaus aren't even like that. Klaus and Violet must of thought the same thing as we all looked at each other freaked out and grossed out. They got really close then Josephine asked as it looked like they where gonna kiss "would you like to come to my house for dinner this evening" she stuttered out "No" me, klaus and violet yelled "oh no i don't know about that one this thing might make scratches" Olaf said pointing to his fake wooden leg but
Josephine said it was okay "the children will make an amazing fruitnasca" Josephine said which is what we made at Olaf's house "Josephine!" I yelled "now don't raise your voice at me young lady" Josephine said still staring at Olaf "that's what i ate before they took my leg" Olaf groaned. "Oh children finish shopping for dinner im gonna take captain sham home" she said "but Josephine it.." I started as they walked away "never start with but Tamara" She said as they walked away. "Hey you haven't paid for that" a seller said we turned around to see a market man then 2 girls turned around oh no Olaf's friends "kids today" the skinny one sighed. I starred at them in shock who is all here. "This is rubbish" I mumbled looking down "lets just hope he doesn't try anything" Violet said as she paid for the food. I bent down to grab Sunny "we haven't even been here for a day let alone 5 hours and he's already here" I said as I picked apples with Sunny. "I don't know I guess lets just pick food out and hopefully she'll be back" Klaus said shrugging. I put sunny down so she could look for Apple's. I went over to Klaus who was looking for lettuce and he was looking at the wrong vegetable "klaus baby the lettuce is over there" I said laughing pointing over to the lettuce. Klaus blushed looking down embarrassed. Me and Klaus walked over to the lettuce and looked for good ones while Violet and Sun Sun went to pick tomatoes. "What about this one?" I asked picking up a piece of lettuce "there is a bit brown on that one" Klaus said I turned it around and there was "oh I didn't see that" I said laughing. Klaus rolled his eyes playfully and grabbed my wrist pulling me towards him to peck my lips.
We walked up to the house with a bit difficulty because of the wind Klaus was carrying Sunny and a bag and me and Violet carried bags. Finally we got back and shut the door. "Aunt Josephine you here?" Violet shouted "Josephine" I yelled setting stuff down "Aunt Josephine!" Klaus yelled as we walked threw the house "aunt joe" Sunny said from the ground. We walked to where we felt wind come from and there was the window broken like Someone jumped out of the window I stopped in my place "not again" I cried "no no no we are too late" Violet said looking down into the water "we didn't make it in time" I muttered. I looked over at Klaus who was holding a note me and Violet went next to him "what is it" Violet asked "its a suicide note" Klaus said "Violet, Klaus, Sunny and Tamara, by the time you read this my life will be at its end my heart is as cold as ike and I find life unbearable" he read then he stopped on a word spelled wrong and confused. "It doesn't matter keep going" Violet said he read more but "acting is spelled with a c" I said stopping him pointing at a word as the house shook a bit "so?" Violet said in a hurry voice "she said her greatest thing in life is grammer why is she making all these mistakes" Klaus said "well if you where about to jump out a window you would make mistakes too" Violet said and took the note. "Please know im happier this way I leave you in charge with Captain cham a good honorable man." Violet read "that's his plan he made her write this them pushed her out the window" I said shaking my head. Klaus looked at me and Violet "wait its not a suicide note" I said in realization "its a message" Klaus finished and took the note. He then got the message figured out or tried to but the house was shaking. "Curdle cave" I read "shes not dead she's hiding" klaus said handing Vi the note then the house started to shake "Sunny" me and Violet yelled we walked towards her but then the door flew towards us and I grabbed Klaus and pushed him aside with me and Violet went by a wall. Sunny winned a bit and looked at something so we looked at what she was looking at to see printed pictures. It was pictured of fires Klaus and Violet went over to look and I ran to Sunny picking her up then a whole wall was ripped off I screamed and covered Sunny's head "Violet, Klaus" I yelled on the other side of the room then the refrigerator started to unhook where Violet and Klaus where "if the refrigerator falls it will crush you flat" violet yelled remembering what Josephine had said then the refrigerator slid towards them and I started to slip to I slide down a bit because the house was sliding "Tamara, sunny" Klaus yelled and grabbed my hand so I didn't slide anymore. As we tried to stand up and walk everything was falling then the stove fell making a whole in the ground then the doorknob was being lighted by gas and started to crack "no way" Violet said in disbelieve and it exploded so we all ducked our heads I covered sunny so she wasn't exposed and Klaus had a hand around my shoulder as he also covered his face with the other and we stayed that way then it was quiet "is it over" Violet asked Klaus and im guessing he peeked and said "Violet you may wanna tie your hair up" he mumbled and we looked to see we are on a tiny part of the house a big gap separating us from the land "Violet ideas" klaus asked as we all stood "no way" I mumbled still holding Sunny. "Violet anker" I mumbled looking at it she nodded getting my idea and pulled her hair up "give me that fire enstanciger" Violet said to Klaus "why" Klaus asked clueless "because Klaus we need to get that anker over to the other side" I explained "what are you sure" Klaus asked us both "just help me" Violet said so Klaus and Violet made the invention "on 3 we are gonna slide this and its gonna smash into that" Violet told him pointing to a plank of wood "but that's the only thing keeping us up" Klaus said freaked out "we know that Klaus" I said he looked back at me with fear then at Violet "you sure you got your hair tight enough?" Klaus asked they counted to 3 and let it go then we started to go backwards I held onto sunny then it went forward and we jumped to safely. I wobbled a bit because I had Sunny but Klaus grabbed me by my arms and pulled me towards him so I was steady I panted and nodded a thanks. "shes alive we have to go to the authority's" Klaus said out of breath "we cant they don't listen" i said to him "Tamara" Klaus said about to argue back "they never listen Klaus and its olaf there is no way they would believe us they never do we need to do this are selfs" I said back. He knew I was right so he just then we heard a weird noise "this is captain sham childrens stay where you are ill come get you" he said. I sighed and looked at Violet and Klaus "ever read anything about sailing" Violet asked I chucked "15" i answered looking at the smart boy i knew. "You counted how many books I've read about sailing" Klaus asked smiling "well not exacley when we had sleepovers in your or my room you had a book every night about sailing and I remember you telling me you had read 15 sailing books" I said shrugging. Violet laughed "come on then" Vi said I handed her Sunny as we started to walk. Klaus grabbed my hand as we where walking down the hill.
We sailed across the water to the cave when we got there it took us a bit to find her we got out of the boat and heard crying Klaus helped me out of the boat and Violet grabbed Sunny. Then Josephine cried out in happiness "you did it" Josephine cheered "so where is the food" she asked on a serious note my mouth widen in shock "food, groceries we just came from a big storm" I said in shock "so how are we supposed to live in here with no food" Josephine said "live here" me and Klaus said at the same time "why of course" she said "no you have to come back with us" I pleaded "no sorry to dangerous" Josephine said "dangerous? Your our guardian and you don't know what dangerous even is we've been threw more dangerous situations then you have" I argued back "you know Josephine the cave is for sale" Klaus said I looked at him confused "so?" Josephine asked her back towards us "so before long people are gonna look at it reliters" klaus said glancing at me with a smirk I smiled and nodded. She instantly wanted to leave. Josephine walked to the boat and we followed but Klaus grabbed my hand stopping me and turning me towards him. I laughed surprised "what are you doing" I asked confused. Then he put a hand on my cheek and kissed me I giggled in the kiss. It lasted 5 secs but i felt like forever. Then he pulled away. "Klaus, Tamara come on lovebirds" Violet yelled. Me and Klaus blushed but nodded and went onto the boat.
We are now back on the boat rowing back "Josephine what does this mean" Klaus asked pulling a paper out with an eye on it I looked at it confused "where did you get that" Josephine asked "in Ike's room" klaus answeres then we found out our parents investigated fires including my mum. Then talked adout stuff but I blocked them out buckling Sunny life jacket "what did are parents say" Klaus said sternly I looked up at him and I sole his face relax a bit when he looked at me "were all gonna die. Its the leeches" Josephine screached. We all looked in the water and there we sole them there was alote "well its a good thing none of us has ate in awhile" I said looking in the water Sunny gurgled "guess again" And Violet and Klaus turned around to look at Sunny I looked down at her to see her moving the cloth that was by us to see a banana peel "aunt Josephine!" Us 3 yelled "oh oh" Sunny said and Josephine picked Sunny up and right then where Sunny was Leaches attacked the side of the boat causing the boat to tip a Bit I screamed in shock and the leaches started to go threw the boat so I stood up and Klaus moved me and just as he did where I was leeches popped threw "we're sinking sinking" Josephine whined. Klaus tried to paddle but leeches didnt want that so they destroyed the paddle then we sole a boat "over here!" Violet yelled waving her arms, me and Klaus doing the same. "Help!" I yelled to them then "hello hello hello" Oh no I grabbed Klaus arm in fear and pulled him closer to me "it seems as you could use an assistance" Olaf said in his normal clothes and voice "it dont matter because when we get back into town aunt Josephine gonna tell everyone what happen' Klaus said to Olaf. "Ya ya then you'll live happily ever after and ill be put into jail" olaf said and mocked other happy stuff boardly "she's gonna tell everyone" I said "oh no I wont you can take the forturn, take the children you dont have to hurt me" Josephine said and handed Sunny to Olaf "Josephine!" Me and Violet yelled in disbelieve and Violet went on Olaf's boat for Sunny I let go of Klaus and he went on board too. Then he turned to me but I turned to Josephine "Josephine please don't do this he will kill you" I muttered "just go ill be fine" Josephine smiled the boat shook a bit and I noticed the boat me and Josephine where on started to move away from Olaf's "Tamara!" Klaus and Violet yelled then leeches attacked the boat and I almost fell in but Klaus grabbed me and pulled me onto Olaf's boat and hugged me "dont do that" klaus whispered I just stared at Josephine sadly. Josephine said she would change everything then all of a sudden are boat went away from aunt Josephine boat and she fell in "Josephine!" I yelled sadly as held onto me tighter as I cried. Then we heard a honking from another boat "children is that you" Mr. Poe shouted "everyone be cool" then Olaf grabbed Klaus from me and dumped his head in the water "klaus! let him go" I shouted and went to them "I saved him I saved him you will not devower this boys head today" Olaf said dramatically as I grabbed Klaus from Olaf and got him away from him and I put my hands on the sides of Klaus head and looked at his face to make sure he was okay as he coughed a bit. "Olaf what are you doing here" Mr. Poe and decrive said "i know but i heard they where in trouble and I just had to come save them" Olaf said pretending to have a heart. I still had both hands on Klaus cheeks to look at his face and I moved hair from his face. "Are you okay" I whispered moving my thumb on his cheek "I'm fine" Klaus nodded "It appears I was wrong adout you" Mr. Poe said. My eyes widen as I slowly let go of Klaus face. "No" we yelled not again please no. "It appears you can be a gardian and I will place the children with you as fast as i can" Mr. Poe added. I shook my head "no Mr. Poe please" I pleaded but got cut off by olaf. Olaf went to us hugging us and happily thinking he got our money "well not intentionally it has to be threw marriage or blood" Mr. Poe said. I looked up at Olaf to see him thinking hard "have I told you about our new play" Olaf sneered. I looked at Vi and Klaus confused as Olaf went to talk to Mr. Poe "play?" I asked.
