Chapter 2
I tried talking to Duncan but, well...it went something like this...
"Hi, Duncan. Is everything OK?"
"OK?! Are you kidding? Violet is missing! Oh but, yes my dear sister, everything is just dandy!"
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to upset you."
"Too late..."
And then he just walked away! It looks as if he isn't going to move on or even cheer up any time soon. He isn't acting like Duncan. He's starting to act like Quigley used to. Quigley could blow up at any second and he never worried about looking nice. He refused to cut his hair. He used to have wavy layered chin length hair. And yet he was always mother's favorite. Something about him having great potential. For what, I shall never know.
You know I hope that one day others can read this and know the tale of the Quagmires. If someone were to read this I'm sure they would want to know about the journals and what me and Duncan discovered. So, I suppose I will tell you. VFD, the big question, stands for...(drum roll)...Volunteer Fire Department. Doesn't sound extravagant does it? Well, let's just say they put out more than fires. There are the people who start the fires and the ones who put them out. Count Olaf started the fire with the Baudelaire's, Monty, and even us. VFD has many members like Josephine, Monty, Mr. and Mrs. Baudelaire, and our parents. There are also 3 more people of importance. Some people named Snicket. Jacques, Kit, and, um, oh I can't remember the last one. But get this! They are triplets, like us! 2 boys and a girl. Must run in the family. I assume we are family since Josephine and Monty are related to the Baudelaire's. Did you know that Count Olaf is even apart of VFD! Well, he was before him and someone named Esme turned on the organization and began starting fires.
We didn't collect a lot. Well, we did but, we only memorized a few things. The Baudelaire's have our notebook pages now. Maybe they will figure
something out. They could even find us once we land.
Do not be hast
The Baudelaire's are on the case!
