All the children are sitting peacefully in their room, doing whatever they wish. The harsh voice of Olaf and the slamming of the door snaps them out of their quiet bliss.

"All of you are to come clean up this mess of a house," Olaf demands.

Violet and Y/N look at each other and roll their eyes. Klaus, on the other hand, is not so subtle on his feelings towards cleaning.

"Maybe if you cleaned up after yourself, it wouldn't be so messy," Klaus says, pushing past Olaf and heading down the stairs.

Y/N's eyes widen, and watches Olaf carefully for his reaction.

"You ungrateful brat!" he scowls. Olaf follows Klaus down the stairs, with Y/N, Violet, and Sunny quickly behind. Olaf takes a few deep breaths with his eyes closed, then puts on a fake smile.

"Just clean...please," he forces out, then gags as he stomps away.

Y/N looks at him strangely. "That was a close one Klaus, you could have gotten hurt," Y/N says to the boy.

"Someone has to stand up to him," Klaus shrugs. "I would rather him take it out on me than you."

Y/N smiles a little, grateful Klaus is being so kind. She then hands him a broom and grabs one for herself.

After quite some time of cleaning, Olaf reappears, grinning like the Cheshire cat. "Good news orphans, you all are going to take part in my next play!" he says enthusiastically.

"Why?" Klaus says with his eyes narrowed, already skeptical.

"Because I want to share my love of theater! Oh it is going to be wonderful. Violet and I are going to be married. Klaus, you will be my best man, and Y/N you will be Violet's maid of honor. Oh, Klaus and Y/N will also be getting married," Olaf explains.

"I don't know," Klaus blushes and glances at Y/N, "What's the real reason for this?"

"That is the real reason! Come on Klaus, you'll be great," Olaf shoves Y/N and Klaus close to each other, side by side.

"I'm having a hard time believing in you..." Klaus shakes his head a little.

Olaf waves his hand, dismissing Klaus's comment. "Don't worry. It will be perfect." Without a word more, he saunters off, leaving the children to question their next move.

Days go by with the orphans pondering about Olaf's play and why they must be a part of it. Y/N had spent each of those days in Justice Strauss's library, searching for any information she could find on weddings.

"I've figured it out!" Y/N bursts in their bedroom door.

"What?" Violet and Klaus ask simultaneously.

"I figured out what Olaf is doing with this whole play thing. While I was in the library, Justice Strauss told me she is going to be the priest of the wedding. In rehearsals, Olaf told us that in the scene when we get married, we must sign our names on this paper at the end of the ceremony. If we sign this document...the marriages will be official. Which means Olaf will get ahold of both of our fortune's," Y/N explains breathlessly.

Silence fills the room, Violet and Klaus process all that she has told them.

"This isn't good," Klaus says with wide eyes.

"I think I have a way to prevent it, without Olaf knowing until after it's been done," Y/N says, rather proud of herself.

"How?" Violet asks.
