Chapter 3
//gonna do a little time skip cause nothing interesting happens until the Baudelaires arrive
Cyanna's POV
I had read a little chunk of the book. I had to give it back to Larry though I don't know why but he asked me too. So I did.
Duncan, Isadora and I got a message from Carmelita to go to vice principal nero's office.
We knocked on his door and he opened it. "You guys will no longer live in the orphan shack you will live in the broom closet there was some new orphans that arrived"
We all shrugged "Uhm alright" I said "Thank you?"
He shooed is off and we went to eat. We sat down together.
"Baudelaires theres some open seats at my table" Carmelita said loudly. My head turned I saw Violet, Sunny and Klaus. "But I'm afraid it's a cakesniffer free zone"
"Here we go again" Isadora rolled her eyes.
"Cakesniffing orphans in the orphan shack!" Carmelita shouted and repeated as the whole cafeteria joined in. Isadora Duncan and I got up and walked over.
"Leave them alone Carmelita" Duncan said "Your the cakesniffer and nobody in the right mind would wanna eat with you anyways"
"Come sit with us" Isadora offered. They looked at her and followed us back to our table.
"You have to forgive Carmelita" Duncan said "Shes so awful Miss Bass is considering a life of crime"
"She does it to all the orphans in the school" I said.
"My sister wrote a poem about her" Duncan smiled looking over at Isadora.
"I would rather eat a bowl of vampire bats then spend a hour with Carmelita Spats" she said I looked over and smiled.
"That's a couplet" Klaus said. I smiled proudly but no one noticed I was proud Klaus was still smart and noticed the little things
"I'm Isadora Quagmire and this is my brother Duncan and this is our friend Cassidy Jones" I smiled softly.
"I'm Violet Baudelaire this is my brother Klaus and my sister sunny" she smiled wide.
"It's nice to meet you" Duncan said gazing in her eyes. Violet smiles shyly. And Sunny mumbled.
"We should warn you about the apples they taste like horseradish" Isadora said
"The food here is alright" I said.
"Everything seems distasteful in this place"
Isadora smiles awkwardly "I hope your surviving the orphan shack"
"It's pretty awful we where living there until yesterday" Duncan said.
Klaus looked at the three of us "You're orphans too"
"My parents got ill... and now I'm here" I lied. I felt horrible.
"We lost our parents in a terrible fire... and our brother Quigley" Isadora smiles sadly.
"We where triplets" Duncan said.
"Where very sorry to here that" Violet said comforting.
"We lost our parents in a fire as well" Klaus said "And my twin sister Cyanna"
"I'm so sorry" Isadora said we all nodded in agreement.
"Its not fair one minute your safe and happy and home" Klaus said sadly "And the next-"
"You're in a shack full of crabs" Isadora finished.
"At least we can do something about the crabs what did you guys do about them?" Violet asked.
Isadora and Duncan looked down at me.
"I was examining them one night and I realized they didn't like sound so we taped pieces of metal to the bottom of our shoes to be noisy" I Explained. Klaus looked at me when I said examining.
"It worked but it's exhausting to have to tap dance all the time" Duncan sighed.
"Nobody likes tap dancing" Violet said. Then Carmelita walked over tap dancing. Doing her little "Cakesniffing orphans in the orphan shack" And walked away.
"She's been even worse since Vice principal Nero got her those tap shoes"
"I bet I can make something that's not exhausting like tap dancing can everyone empty there pockets. I emptied mine I had pins, pieces of metal, and a paper clip.
Isadora pulled out the half of the spyglass, and Klaus pulled out the other half. They connected them we all stared.
"Where did you get that" they both said.
"In the ruins of our parents home" Violet said.
"I think we need to talk" Klaus suggested.
"We found its in the ashes we'd never seen in before" Duncan said.
"Can't be a coincidence, two fires, two halves of a spy glass" violet said I stayed silent not wanting to blow my cover but I was examining the room.
"I think it's more than a spyglass" Klaus said, playing with the pieces. I had stopped listening cause I was examining. I don't know how much longer but Klaus said "Cassidy you alright!" I snapped out.
"Yes I'm fine" I looked up.
"She does that a lot" Duncan said looking at me. "We would of never came up with a way to keep the crabs away without her"
"She reminds me on cyanna... she used to do the same thing" Klaus said and shrugged.
We got up and walked to the library to find a book... the one I read. The librarian was arguing with Carmelita.
Carmelita sniffed "I smell cakesniffers who lost there parents from a fire and a illness" she smiled and walked off.
"Quagmires, Baudelaires and who might you be?" She asked.
"I'm cassidy Jones" I smiled slightly.
"Are you still open" Isadora asked
"I'm afraid I was just locking up" the librarian said.
There was a whole bunch of talking as I was examining again. "I-I gotta go" i said.
"What why?" Duncan asked.
"Don't feel great cya" I rushed to the cafeteria to talk to Larry.
"Larry!" I shouted he looked over.
"Miss Baudelaire" He said smiling.
"Not here please my siblings are here but that book they're looking for it don't you have it?"
"I lost it... I was supposed to give it to them" he sighed heavily.
"I'm sorry I'll keep a eye out for it" I smiled and walked to the broom closet to pretend I didn't feel well I layed there.
Later I was walking with the quagmires and we where stopped. "Well hello, hello, hello" a older man said. "What are helpless orphans like yourself doing at a place like this"
"Who are you?" Isadora asked. I looked up.
"Pretend this handsome face doesn't haunt your every waking and sleeping hours you will never get rid of me you'll never be safe so much to learn orphans and I'm here to school you" he chuckled as we backed a Away.
"Uhm do we know you?" I asked.
"The three of you better-" he stopped "wait you three-? Where's the midget and who are you" he looked at me.
"Cassidy...." I mumbled.
"1, 2, 3 no midget?" He said confused we all looked confused "You're not the Baudelaires! Who are you?" He said.
"Who are you miscreant?" Duncan sneered.
"Miscreant" he said "Ohhhh I know who you are now you sound just like your mother" he walked towards them. I tried to get in between.
"Stop it you creep!" He shoved me to the ground.
"Quigley..." he smirked.
"Duncan" he corrected
"You miscreant you never again will darken the doors of this airplane hanger such a tired some women" he mocked. "Always reading Italian and poetry and activating doors"
"How do you know our mother?" Isadora asked.
"Oh I know everything orphans I know the number of hairs on each of your heads the number of sapphires in your secret vaults the number of tombstones in your families plots" he smirked "Well well it seems this trip to Prufrock twice the fortune and there is nobody who can stop me"
"Give me back you burrito you miscreant!" Larry shouted and the man turned around. The quagmires ran to me and helped me up we ran off.
"You alright Cassie?" Duncan asked.
"I'm fine just a bloody nose" I said and we ran off.
"One eyebrow" Isadora said
"And I bet he has a tattoo of a eye on his ankle"'Duncan suggested.
"We have to warm the Baudelaires" Isadora suggested. We ran to my siblings.
We went to the pep rally where my siblings where and sat by them.
Everyone was chanting we tried telling them what was going on.
"Thank you!" Nero said "welcome to the mandatory pep rally"
Everyone started shouting and I gazed off again I do it a lot when stuff is going wrong.
Olaf ran through out to all of us "I'm coach genghis"
