A/N. This is just so I don't get accused of being a mary-sue


Within days, the conversation of choice switched from trolls in dungeons to first quidditch match. Personally, Marie hated sports, but she figured it would be a good a time as any to prank random people. That was the case until she heard that her partners in crime, the twins, were beaters and couldn't sit in the stands and prank people. Marie came up with a better plan anyway, which she dubbed "Operation: take a nap". And on Nov. 10th, Marie put her well conceived- which means it's rather brilliant if I do say so myself. Stupid narrating genes...- plan into action.

For about 30 minutes, she thought she could pull it off. Unfortunately, the cheers and roars from the sidelines made her keep rolling in her seat, meaning she couldn't catch any really good Z's. She shouted "Shut up!! I'm trying to sleep!!" but no one could hear her over their own shouts. When a rogue bludger zoomed past her face, she knew that "Operation: take a nap" was a hideous failure- meaning that I couldn't sleep in those stands if I wanted. Ah! I hate my narrating genes.

As Marie sat there bored, staring ahead in a daze, she pulled out her notebook and started to jot some things down. Hermione, who was sitting next to her, groaned and rolled her eyes. "More anagrams? But they're worthless!"

Marie replied in a very hostile tone "First off, never argue with my uncle's/family's logic. If they say that it's important, then it is and you just accept it! Secondly, I never said it was anagrams! For your information, I'm taking notes on the match with this 'Quick-jot-pen'. And thirdly, I think your missing something very...what..." Marie trailed off. She was staring at something in the air...the Gryffindor seeker...Harry! His broom was out of control. This is why first years shouldn't be seekers.

She looked around randomly with her binoculars for something else to focus on. She focused on this random hufflepuff kid. She then zoomed into the teacher stands...and looked at the people arousing her suspicions, Snape and Quirrel. They were both staring at Potter. Then again, who wasn't? They were both muttering random gibberish, but then again, it could have been swears. Then a flash of light, a stomping noise and Snape fell down, knocking Quirrel and five other teachers down.

Apparently, some student lit Snapes' long dirty black robes on fire, causing a chain reaction. All Marie wished was that she had been the one to set the fire, but anyhow, Harry's broom was back under control. After a few more boring seconds, Harry Caught the snitch and Gryffindor won the game.

Marie Snicket walked over to the twins after the game. She said in a slight mocking tone "Did you two have anything to do with that Harry-broom thingy?" The twins shook their heads.

"Oh, heaven's no! If we were gonna sabotage some one, it'd be slytherin, not our own seeker!" Fred said in a very interested tone.

"Yeah, Like we'd ruin our own house!" George said in disgust. An awkward silence followed. Then George said, "so what's today's anagram?"

Marie rolled her eyes as she said, "Well, today, I turned Hermione Granger into 'I hang more Green'. It doesn't use every letter, but like I care. I'll send her the note tomorrow."

Time flies when you're having fun, but that can happen to when you're bored out of your mind. Before anyone could count, it was Christmas. Good ole Christmas. And the thought that crossed everyone's mind was 'PRESENTS!!!!' Marie flew down the stairs, awaiting piles and piles of presents. And she was not disappointed, for it seemed as though even if everyone hated you, you got 50 bazillion presents anyway. Without thinking, Marie ripped open all the wrapping paper.

In the first three boxes, one from Fred, one from George, and one from Ron, she found all sorts of candy. Ron got her some every flavor beans, Fred got her some pumpkin pasties, and George got her some chocolate frogs. All the stuff I need to become the Goodyear blimp.

When Harry got his invisibility cloak, which everyone within the whole house knew within five minutes, it instantly sparked conversations about their families. After three minutes of random chatter, Harry announced, "Let's hear from Snicket, the anagram queen!" almost sarcastically. The idea was met with cheers from everyone up at the time, and Marie was pushed into a sloppy circle of Gryffindors on new present highs. People all around her were silent as she began.

"Well, My dad's name is Jacques. My mom's name is Sandra. I have an uncle named Lemony." she started. A few people started to giggle. "What? His name really is Lemony. He's an author. We used to live in a big mansion, but it was destroyed in a huge fire. My dad, and everyone in my family, are really cool, very funny, slightly sarcastic, and super secretive. Lemony's...well, the details get kinda sketchy, if you wanted the whole story I'd ask him, fiancée Beatrice died in that fire...he hasn't quite gotten over it. An evil guy named Count Olaf set the fire. He's a known arsonist, meaning he likes to set things on fire. Houses and even people sometimes. He's gone after many houses and places, but the more money you have, then the more chance you have of him showing up."

"Sounds like this guy is a total bastard!" said Pravati. She was rewarded with some hard stares from at least three people.

"Nothing gets by you, Captain Obvious. Now, attention back to me!" she said. As if on cue, everyone's heads turned back to Marie's general direction. "Alright. Now three families are marked by the guy, meaning he ruins our lives more than usual. Those are, The Baudelaires are the latest addition. Olaf hasn't gotten to the 'burn our house down' phase yet, but we can expect it sometime soon. I know he will, I read it somewhere. The Quagmires, Good people with sapphires and sorta new, and the Snickets, which are the oldest. Anyway, that's about it! Now let me out of this circle before I start calling you all girl names!" Marie shouted as she shoved her way out of the circle. She stood next to the twins and Ron. "That went better than expected." she whispered. Then the Weasleys laughed.

She noticed Percy approaching from across the common room. She motioned to Ron for a water balloon. All of a sudden, Percy was soaked from four different balloons. He screamed, then ran back up to his dorm and cried. Everyone still standing there laughed and a few managed to fall to the ground.
