John turned from his laptop to glare at his best friend. "Sherlock! Did you change my password again?" He was about to answer when the phone rang. "I'll get it. Hello? OH, Okay,I'll try. Yes, I will meet them there in ten minutes." he hung up. "Sherlock, I have to meet some family members. I will be back as quickly as I could. Kay?" He got a non-committal grunt in response. "Be right back." He headed out.
When he got to the air port, three kids were waiting for him. "Cousin John?" John smiled at the girl. She was pretty with kind intelligent eyes and raven-wing black hair. With her was a smart-looking boy with the same colored hair, glasses perched dangerously on his nose. At his side was a little girl. "Violet, Klaus, Sunny." he greeted. His young cousins walked up to him. "You really don't have to do this." Violet said, giving him a worried look.
John laughed and shook his head. "Do you really think I will not? I don't care how much danger you're in, you are my family. Besides, I'm pretty used to it by now. Come on, there is someone I want you three to meet. Oh Violet, do you still like performing those experiments?"
"Yes, why?"
"Oh, no reason." he replied. To himself, he thought Sherlock will adore her. Violet, the eldest, was a very smart and kind girl. Being an inventor, she was always experimenting with something. John always wondered how she could make a gadget out of everyday items so quickly. He thought that was why he put up with Sherlock, his experimenting nature reminded him of Violet. "Now when we get home, I want you to tell us about this Count Olaf person. Sherlock might find it interesting."
"Sherlock?" Klaus asked. The second eldest was just as smart and sweet as his sister. As a habit, he read every chance he could get. John made a mental note to buy as many books as he could. They were almost to 221B baker street when danger struck. John heard the car first. He turned to see it heading directly for them. "Get down, guys!" he cried, pushing his three cousins out-of-the-way. He managed to get out-of-the-way himself.
"John, are you ok?" Klaus asked, his voice worried as he helped his older cousin. "Yes, who was that? Not that Olaf person?"
"Glagh." Sunny answered which ment something like "If so, it did not take him long to find us."
"Come on, Sherlock will not be happy to hear about this."
