Story Time!
One who is being dishonest is one who is not telling the truth. Never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever EVER, lie to some one or anybody because it will eventually come back to haunt you and that that would be extremely unfortunate for you. Voldemort, however, was about to tell his biggest lie yet, a lie so fake, and so unbelievable one could say that it was almost true, even though it is not.
"I am going to tell you the story about that boy you see in the picture." said Voldemort
The Baudelaires gathered around Voldemort so that they could here his story
"He was one of my students not to long ago, and boy was he a trouble maker. It all started when I had accidentally over heard him talking about pulling his biggest prank ever on one of the teachers. So being that I am a teacher I decided to listen in and discovered that he was going to pull a prank on me! And when I was teaching! I didn't know what to do so I decided to fight fire with fire, which is a very complicated expression that means…"
"We know what it means." said Klaus interrupting Voldemort
"Ah yes well, I decided to pull a prank on him and I thought it was a pretty cleaver prank if you ask me. So the next day during school, when he was going to pull his prank on me, I called him up to the class. Why? Cause I glued his butt to the seat of his desk! Yes I thought it was so funny to see him squirm around trying to break free of the glue but, his parents where so furious with me that they called the police on me and I was arrested for no reason! But the worst part was, is that no matter how many times I try to pull a prank on him, he always gets me in trouble." said Voldemort pretending to have a sad soft voice
"Uncle Voldy, what is his name." asked Violet
"His name is Harry Potter." answered Voldemort
"And why is this Harry Potter always pulling pranks on you?" asked Klaus
"Well, he thinks im not grading his papers fairly enough. And I grade everyones work equally and give them the grade that they deserve for the work they turn in." answered Voldemort
"Have you ever tried disguising your self?" asked Violet thinking of someone very evil that has gotten away with loads of evil schemes and wrong doings.
"Yes I have tried a certain disguise once but, he could see right through me and instantly got me in trouble. And worst of all, I over heard him saying that he was going to pull a really big prank on me to the point where I could loose my job as a teacher!" said Voldemort just making that up in his head
"Oh, my that is very terrible!" said Violet
"Is there anything we could do to help? Maybe we could save your job at Hogwarts!" exclaimed Klaus
"Yes, Klaus good idea, I could invent something for you that can help you save your job and pull a prank on that no for good nothing student." said Violet
"And maybe I could read up on how to pull a prank and do it successfully." added Klaus
"Wolick!" exclaimed Sunny which probably meant, "And maybe I could help by pretending to be an innocent baby and when he least expects it I can bit off his leg with my four sharp teeth!"
"That's all very kind of you but I just don't think its possible." said Voldemort trying to act dramatic
"Sure it is!" exclaimed Klaus "Anything is possible if you just put your mind to it!"
"Well." sighed Voldemort "Alright! But, you must not tell anyone of this, not to anyone, and not to Gigi."
"Well, we are going to have to tell her anyways, she is going to be our nanny by tomorrow and she probably going to wonder why we spend so much time in our rooms working instead of playing." said Violet
"Yes, you are right, but not yet, not until she is really suspicious of what you three are up to." said Voldemort
"Ok, we will start tomorrow!" said Klaus with much enthusiasm
"Perfect." said Voldemort in his head "Everything is going as planed."
Just then a black owl came swooping in with a letter for Voldemort. He gave the owl a treat and it flew off into the darkness of the house. The children stared at Voldemort in wonder and confusion.
"Did that owl just bring you a letter from the post?" asked Violet in confusion
"Yes, I trained him to bring me my mail from my…" Voldemort stop to think of the muggle name for a box that the postman puts your mail in.
"…from my mailbox." said Voldemort finally thinking of the name
"Well that is very impressive I must say." said Klaus
"Yes it is, and will you look at the time! It is getting very late, you three should be in bed by now." said Voldemort trying to change the subject
"Yes it is late, well ill see you in the morning Uncle Voldy!" said Violet
"Goodnight Uncle Voldy." added Klaus
"Night Voldy." said Sunny
"Goodnight children." said Voldemort
And with there final words, the Bauldelaires hurried up to there rooms for a goodnights sleep. But Voldemort remained in the room. He picked up the letter and read the first few lines on the envelope and stared at it in great confusion. For the letter was from Gigi.
