Disclaimer: I do not own ASOUE, but I do own my imagination... muwahahaha... oh look a penny!!
A/N: I would like to thank everyone for reviewing. I didn't know many people will like this. Also If you are a Violaf fan do now worry this story will have plenty of violaf goodness. But first i am tring to set the characters and slowly make my way torwards it. One person was thinking of a kiss i can assure you do not worry later on there will be that magnificant kiss well however you look at it. If you are not violaf fan also do not wrry it won't be like that, It will be oLaf just thinks she is pretty and Violet hates him. Nothing more.
PART 2
Chapter 4
"Are we there yet?" The hook-handed man whined.
"We'll get there when we get there!" Olaf growled. He was driving past the 60 mph speed limit.
"I'm hungry!" One white faced woman complained.
"You should have eaten something bigger, it's not my fault you are starving yourself." Olaf said irritated.
"But the food was over 800 calories I'm trying to lose weight and I'm on a strict diet!" She whined.
"You should have joined another weight loss program" The other white faced woman suggested.
"Goldfish!" The bald man cried.
"It's dark outside, I can barely even see the cards, and I hear if you play cards at night you can get blind and I already have a disability problem." The hook-handed man said.
"If you don't shut up you will have even more problems!" Olaf snarled at his crew "We would have already been there if we didn't have to go find someplace to eat!" This was towards Esmé.
"It's not my fault fast-food is just out and they didn't have any in restaurants either." She explained exasperated.
"And In-N-Out is not fast-food?" Olaf cried
"I wouldn't call it fast-food, and its In-N-Out there are more in's then out which makes it an in place!"
"You know boss; I think we are lost, we have been driving in the same scenery for hours" the bald man said looking out the window.
"I have been going to Lulu's since I first got my license and we are not lost, I have a good sense of direction I know where we are!" He explained wrinkling his eyebrows in frustration. He wishes his crew would all just shut up!
Violet, on the other half, is in another world of her own. She's thinking of Klaus and Sunny and how she failed them. She made a promise she couldn't keep.
She hasn't cried because she knows crying doesn't solve anything when you are in danger. Usually what helps is an invention or intelligence but that seemed to fail her too.
Violet has decided to just give up. Oaf has won, he has killed her siblings and now she is in his clutches. Violet knew this catastrophe would all end, but she didn't know it would end like this, a bigger catastrophe. She imagined Olaf was put to prison and never to escape. "What luck dreams are!" She thought angrily.
"Rarely Ridden Road, 5 more miles." Olaf says.
The crew looks out the window to see a rundown carnival in front of them. A couple of guests are there, but none look as happy as if they were at Disneyland instead. A couple of rides were running, almost all are rusty and beaten down. They were driving past different shaped caravans. Olaf parked along side the biggest one, the 'fortune telling' caravan.
The crew all got out and Violet was the last gathering her thoughts and as she pulled the handle, a hand grabbed her forearm.
"I don't want to hear a peep out of you, and any funny business you will regret being the last orphan alive!" Olaf threatened. "You should be grateful; I saved your life at the hospital."
"You didn't save my life you tried to cut my head off!" Violet cried outraged.
His grip tightened hurting her, "I could of let you burned with your ungrateful siblings, but I didn't I chose you to keep living till I get my fortune, you should be bowing at my feet thanking me and asking for forgiveness. Any minute I could hurt that pretty little face of yours but I' am not going to because I am a generous man, and you are just an orphan, I should not waste my time."
Violet keeps her head down avoiding his eyes; she hasn't really looked at him, at all through the whole ride to the carnival. His grip is still firm and she slowly averts her eyes towards his. She nods in defeat and he lets go and gets out of the car, she follows suit.
"Lulu and I, go way back..." He says and gets quiet. He knocks and Esmé stiffens. Footsteps get louder then the door opens and a woman's head peeks out; she was wearing a turban, like the one Olaf was wearing when he was the orphans coach at Prufrock Prep.
"Lulu!" Olaf opens his arm like he is visiting an old friend he hasn't seen in a long time.
"You haven't visited me in a long time my Olaf!" she strikes back, Olaf stops in mid-air and frowns "You know I have been busy chasing this brat and her stupid siblings around. Thanks to you I never would have guessed they were at the Village of freaky dorks!"
"Village of Fowl Devotees." Lulu corrects. She opens the door to let his crew and him in. Inside there was a huge table, a small kitchen, and on the far side is a small bed. The crew sits around the table, Olaf in the middle Esmé beside him, and the white faced woman on the other side staring at Esmé in jealousy, and Violet sat farthest from him as she could, she pushed herself away from the table into a corner to be with herself.
"What can I do for you my Olaf?" lulu asks Esmé stares in disbelief, Olaf is not her Olaf, he's Her Olaf he isn't dating anyone else!
"I need your great fortune telling skills again Lulu!" Olaf complimented her.
"You have a way with words my Olaf please." She blushed
"You have no idea!" Esmé crows, but no one paid her any attention.
"Are you hungry please?" Lulu asks
"Starving!" The Bald man cries "wait one minute please." She walks over to the back door, "Leo! Olaf and his crew are hungry please!" She closes the door and walks back to the table. "What can I get you to drink please?"
"Wine." Olaf answers
"Oh my Olaf you still drink too much wine, you all want wine then please?" Lulu looks from Olaf to his crew.
"Not me I would like parsley soda extra ice, and hold the ice, cold things are in." Esmé explains and scoots closer to Olaf. Lulu gets the beverages ready, not caring to ask Violet for anything to drink.
Lulu hands the cup with ice to Esmé and a can of parsley soda, then a bottle of wine and five wine glasses on the table and pours the alcoholic drink in the glasses and hands each glass to each crew.
"This is too cold for me to drink." Esmé complains. "There are too many ice cubes in the cup."
Lulu didn't say anything or do anything, she never has liked Esmé.
A knock came from the back door and stopped the sudden move and Lulu opens the door, to see a very short man holding a plate of chicken and corn on the cob enough for everybody to be full, and he puts the plate on the table for everyone to see.
Without even hesitation the crew except Violet, digs in, a phrase meaning everyone takes a piece and starts eating.
"Do you have anything else to eat?" Esmé says not very happy with the greasy food.
"Don't worry Esmé you can have all the food you like thanks to this magnificent fortune teller and the orphan sitting in the corner." Olaf says with chicken in between his teeth.
"We will be set for life also by your intelligent plans!" Esmé sweetly said emphasizing on the 'we' and she kisses Olaf on the cheek.
"You did not tell me Esmé was your girlfriend Olaf, maybe I will not help you."
"Lulu...we are a team and I really need your help"
"What for please? You now I demand payment for this." She says crossly
"You will get payment, I have the orphan who holds a huge sum of money, she is the eldest and when she turns eighteen she will be the inheritor and I will have that money; you will have five percent, that's enough to tidy up this place." Olaf gets up and walks over to Lulu.
"You said that about the quagmires and the Snicket's and the Dutch's and the Denouement's and I have not a penny!" lulu reminds
Olaf puts his arm around lulu "This is different, I have the orphan in my grasps and she is the only Baudelaire living, her family are extinct and I can threaten for the money with that idiotic banker of hers. To make sure you get the money, you can come with us!"
Esmé spits out her drink, "What!"
"I believe you are joking my Olaf I cannot come with you, who can run my carnival when I am gone please?" Lulu says
"Come on ladies, it will be fun, Lulu can for see my troubles and nothing can happen. I need to recruit more troupes anyway." Olaf says "And that midget of yours can take over for a while, while you are gone with me."
"Okay please, but only because I want the money and I help you." Lulu agrees.
"Perfect we can stay for the night in the guest rooms and tomorrow first thing in the morning we will take off" Olaf says leaning back on his chair smiling. Esmé besides him is angry and she crosses her arms.
"Where will we sleep?" The hook-handed man asks "I'm tired"
"Guest rooms five and six please, but there is not enough room for all of you." Lulu answers.
"That's fine the orphan can sleep with Esmé and I in one room." Olaf suggests. He wants to keep a close eye on her anyways.
"Absolutely not! I am not going to sleep in the same room as an orphan, it's not in, she is not in, and I won't have it!" Esmé snarls impatiently.
"That's fine please; orphan can sleep in the freaks caravan." Lulu says
"That's where she belongs anyways." Olaf says and everyone laughs. Violet ignores the comments and looks down avoiding eye contact and everyone.
"Won't she run away?" Esmé wondered.
"The carnival is in the middle of nowhere she doesn't have anywhere to go; and she will starve to death if she leaves and can't find her way." Olaf said not worrying one bit.
Violet is oblivious to the rest of the conversation as Olaf changes the subject to himself. She is looking at the ground fiddling with her fingers and her mind is reminiscing, a word which here means remembering the past.
A/N: Hey everybody sorry if it is OOC or not really good. i have been rushing i am busy. I have no life whatsoever!! i am at school for half a day, and homework. Anyways please review. I thought it will be a good idea to bring tension and have Lulu join Olaf rather than stay at the carnival, also i like the jealousy circle, you know white-faced women are jealous of Lulu, lulu is jealous of Esme, and esme's jealous of Violet, and Violet just wants out. Please review or not... Just like to know how you guys or gals think. Have a nice day/night/life.
