Chapter 1: Meeting the new guardian; Hello Vincent Valentine! As you know, in most stories, they have happy beginnings. Ones such as "Once upon a time on a beautiful, sunny day..." But this story is different. As you already know, the Baudelaires have been through tragic events, most where someone is being killed. Oh poor Uncle Monty. Oh poor Aunt Josephine. I wish I was back there to save them, but I was not. Now, time to start the story with this introduction:

The Baudelaire orphans looked out dreadfully outside of the buggy they were riding across the long plains, wondering who there new guardian might be. The Baudelaires were a family who used to live in a Mansion and were rich, until there was a fire that killed their parents. Now the Baudelaires had to go from guardian to guardian that they were related to in order to live somewhere. But the heartless and greedy Count Olaf kills their guardian and tries to take care of the Baudelaires once again. But he has failed and escaped many times. As they were riding in the buggy, Mr. Poe, a banker and a good friend of the Baudelaires, coughed into his handkerchief then explained about their new guardian to them.

"His name is Vincent Valentine," said Mr. Poe after coughing a bit. "He's very sensitive and lives in a mansion." He coughed once more into his handkerchief before continuing. "He's had a very hard lifetime and is really silent all the time, so please do not be too vociferous and disconcerted." He coughed once more.

"Vociferous and disconcerted mean-"

"We know what vociferous and disconcerted mean," interrupted Klaus Baudelaire. He was the second youngest Baudelaire child and had round glasses. He also loved to read books and wore a suit. "It means loud and excited."

Violet Baudelaire nodded. "Don't worry Mr. Poe, we won't be too loud or excited." Violet Baudelaire was the oldest Baudelaire child. She wore a dress and had a purple ribbon in her hair. She also loved to invent and when she was ever thinking of an invention, she had her hair up in her ribbon. Right now, that's what she did to her hair right now. She was trying to think of a way to make the Buggy less bumpy.

"Twa!" said Sunny Baudelaire. Sunny was the youngest Baudelaire child. She was a baby and, like all babies do, spoke gibberish. She also loved to bite things with her four very sharp teeth. She also had a bow on her few little baby hairs and wore a pink little dress. Violet was holding her. I think that Sunny was trying to say, "I'll be calm and quiet if there are hard things to bite!"

Soon, the buggy stopped in front of a small town. The houses of the town looked like regular, every day houses, except they looked like ones people of the older days lived in. The Baudelaires stepped out of the buggy then looked at Mr. Poe. "Aren't you coming with us?" Mr. Poe shook his head and coughed into his handkerchief. He soon replied. "I have to get back to the bank as soon as possible. If I go with you, I'll arrive at the bank tomorrow morning. I have a lot of work to do at the bank." He coughed again then pointed forward to an old mansion with a gate in front of it.

"The mansion is over there.If you need me, contact me from your guardian's phone. I'll see you later." The buggy then left, leaving the Baudelaires alone in this city.

"So where are we anyway?" asked Violet. Klaus looked at a sign and replied, quoting the sign, "'Welcome to Nibelhiem'" He blinked then shrugged. "I guess.we're in the town of Nibelhiem." They walked over to where the Mansion was and pushed the rusty gate open with ease. They looked up at the Mansion and shuddered. It looked very old and creepy, like a mansion some vampire would live in. They shook the fear off a bit and dragged their feet to the door. They knocked slightly, but very loudly, on the door. It slightly, showing a red, emotionless eye looking at them from the small crack. "Are you the Baudelaire children?" He asked very calmly with a voice that sent a chill down the Baudelaires' spines, but, somehow, also left them comfortable.
