Narantha stood there. She knew what she saw, but she didn't want to believe it. Fire was rapidly spreading amongst the trees. She watched as deer, rabbit, wolves, birds, all of the animals ran from it. It was no natural fire, which was for sure. Narantha had seen natural fires. NO, this one had been started by something other than nature.

Count Olaf, thought Violet, He's here, he followed us in. Narantha looked at Violet, then to Sunny. "We need to get out of here. If the fire doesn't kill us, the stampede of animals will. Violet nodded and picked up Sunny. "Leausre!" cried Sunny pointing to Klaus's body, not knowing what had happened, meaning, "We can't leave our brother here to burn!" but Violet kept running next to Narantha.

Once again, Violet's lungs felt like they would burst, but Narantha seemed to have unlimited stamina, and Violet didn't want to be left behind. Ahead she saw lights. Where they walking into another fire? No, they were lights from a lantern. Ahead someone was standing in the clearing- THE CLEARING! They were home free, Violet thought, but her high hopes sunk as she saw who was holding the lantern.

"You!" Violet yelled seeing Fiona's face in the lantern light. "Me?" replied Fiona without any emotion what so ever. Violet bubbled with anger. She knew who had been in Narantha's living room, why Klaus was unable to say who it was, and that this proved Olaf was in the forest. "You tried to kill him!" Violet screamed. "He loved you and you tried to kill him!" Narantha had to grab onto the back of Violet's dress to keep her from tackling Fiona, who just looked at her, a nasty smirk on her face. "Yes, I tried to kill him. Yes, I tried and succeeded." Violet looked at her. "No, he died because of a wolf…" "And who do you think the wolf belonged to?" she said, a twinge of Count Olaf in her voice. "Why!?!" Violet yelled tears running down her face, as she tried to yank herself from Narantha's grasp. Fiona just stood there, smirking. "Why? Because, you stupid orphan, you landed Fernald in jail! That's why!"

Violet had no idea what Fiona was talking about, and she told her so. "Don't be an idiot! You, your stupid buck-toothed sister, and book-worm brother showed up at the hotel and accused Count Olaf, even if it was true. Unfortunately for us, some idiot believed you and told the authorities. Count Olaf, Esme, Carmelita, and I escaped… but you… YOU are the reason they caught Fernald!" Violet stood there, fist clenched. "He got what he deserved!" She cried. "Your brother was evil and don't start up with that 'we're like a chef's salad' talk again! He's evil Count Olaf's evil, Esme's evil, YOU'RE EVIL!"

Fiona nodded. "Yes, I suppose I am… but remember Violet, I owe it all to you… if you hadn't gotten Fernald arrested, I'd never see what an imbecile my step-father was, I wouldn't have broken, and I wouldn't have killed the rat, and I'm not talking about your stupid brother, I'm talking about Quigley Quagmire." Violet's eyes opened wide. Her heart skipped a few beets, and she felt the little wire of patience Fiona was pulling snap in two. She lashed at Narantha, trying to break out of her grasp, but living on her own for all those years, Narantha was strong.

"Yes, I'm afraid Quigley had been in the crowd when you made your little announcement, and he had told the authorities it was true. Your name was cleared… not that it will do you any good. Count Olaf hunted Quigley down then gave me his knife. He said as his newest recruit, I had to kill him, and you know what… I did, and I liked it, and then I started the fire…

Narantha immediately lost her grip on Violet, but Violet didn't get a chance to pound Fiona to the ground, because Narantha had already taken care of it. Fiona screamed as Narantha punched her hard in the mouth, and then kicked her in the stomach. Fiona leaned over in pain, and Narantha took advantage by putting her foot on her back and shoving her to the ground. She rolled onto her side, but Narantha didn't take any sympathy. She kicked Fiona causing her to roll onto her stomach. She groaned trying to stand up but Narantha punched her right back down. "YOU DESTROYED MY HOME! YOU KILLED MY FRIENDS…" but cut off remembering her parents lying in the snow bleeding, bullet holes in their backs. "Olaf killed my parents…" she said losing interest in Fiona. To Violets surprise, Fiona wasn't laying on the ground in pain… she was laying on the ground- LAUGHING? "Olaf told me about you. You're the Choson girl, the one who's been living in the woods for over ten years. Narantha didn't move she just stood there blankly. She seemed to be petrified, staring at Fiona like she was sent from the fires of Hell. "Oh do you want to know about your sister Narantha? She was poisoned. You were too stupid to see she wasn't sick, her internal organs were being chewed aw-"

But the word chewed signaled something Violet hadn't seen coming. Sunny leapt off Violets shoulders and at Fiona, biting her hard on the leg. Fiona yelped and tried to kick Sunny off, but Sunny held tight. Violet glanced around and saw the fire, and mass of animals not far away. "Narantha we have to go." Narantha seemed to be yanked out of her trance and nodded. Narantha ran passed Fiona, and Violet tried to get Sunny off her leg, but Fiona was kicking and flailing so much it was imposable. The fire was feet away, but Fiona didn't seem to notice, she was to busy kicking at Sunny, who still held tight. "Sunny, get off, we have to go!" but Sunny looked at her sister with eyes saying, 'run, you have to get out of here… If I go… at least Fiona goes too.' Violet looked at her baby sister tearfully. "Sunny…" she said, hoping, praying, she would let go, but she didn't, and by the time Fiona felt the flames it was too late. She was soon engorged in flame, and so was the baby on her leg. Violet watched as Sunny went flying through the flames as Fiona finally kicked her off.

Narantha practically had to carry Violet out of the burning forest because she refused to go. She repeatedly screamed for Sunny, even though, she knew, Sunny was gone. Once Narantha had Violet out of the forest and at the edge of the city she let her go and hugged her. "You're going to be okay." But Violet pulled away. "Maybe, if we hurry we can-…" but once again Narantha grabbed her. "It's too late Violet! It's too late…" They both hit their knees, Narantha releasing Violet. "It's too late…" she whispered, now sounding more liked she was talking to herself. Violet just sat there, watching the smoke curl out of the trees in the distance.

Too late…
