Violet, Klaus, and Sunny sat silently in their bedroom. It was very late at night, so they should have been asleep a while ago. Instead, they were up late wracking their brains to think of an idea that could destroy Myra for good.
"If Jack said she probably won't try that light spell again, then we've got nowhere to start from." Klaus said.
"Again, like I always say, there's always something." Violet said impatiently.
"Yes I know that, Violet. But where are we gonna start if we've got no idea what this witch has in store for the town?" Klaus asked.
Violet sat there and thought hard about where she and her siblings could start to think of an idea that they could tell to Jack, Sally, and the rest of the town at the town meeting tomorrow. After a while, she smiled as she pulled her black ribbon out of her dress pocket and tied her hair up as she finally thought of something.
"What is it, Vi? What should we do?" Klaus asked.
"Juhmas?" Sunny asked, which meant something like "How are we gonna get rid of the witch?"
"If it was a light spell Myra used the first time, then she must only use dark powers." Violet said.
"Gee, I could've figured it out myself." Klaus said sarcastically.
Violet just rolled her eyes as she said "Well, isn't the contrary for a dark spell a light spell?"
"Yes, and what are you getting at?" Klaus asked.
"Well, Jack told us that Myra only comes out at night because she can't stand good light like sunlight. In fact, she won't even use an umbrella during the day like the vampires do because she hates it that much. If we can find a way to use sunlight or some other form of good light against her, then she should be easy to defeat." Violet said.
Klaus and Sunny stared at Violet in awe, completely amazed that she was able to think up of a plan so incredible and so genius like this one. Then again, she had always been the one to think of the jumping off point for their plans to get away from Olaf.
"Wow, Vi. That's one of your best plans yet." Klaus said.
"Thank you, Klaus. Now all we have to do is tell the citizens about it tomorrow and if they like it, then we can begin to put it in motion." Violet said.
The next day
Town Hall was once again filled to the brim with the citizens of Halloweentown, all yelling amongst themselves about the evil that was lurking within their city at that very moment. Jack had attempted to calm everyone down, but he had no luck so far.
"Citizens, please relax. I'm sure you have some good ideas to get rid of Myra." Jack said from the podium on the stage.
"How can we relax when that vile woman is out there?" one of the vampires shouted.
"Enough! Now if you have an idea on how to get rid of this witch, please speak up." Jack demanded of the group.
The citizens immediately quieted down at Jack's demand. However, they were also silent in the fact that no one had been able to think of a good way to get rid of Myra yet. This amazed Jack and Sally greatly as the citizens were normally able to band together and think of great ideas. This was especially true when they attempted to take over Christmas, although it didn't turn out successful in the long run.
"Come on, anyone have any ideas?" Sally asked.
"Well we can't use our original idea that we had the last time, 'cause we know she won't use that light spell this time." the small witch said.
"Ok, we all know that's out of the question. But does anyone have an idea that we could use this time around?" Sally asked.
It was silent for a moment as the citizens thought about what Sally just said. The silence was broken by Violet shooting her hand up in the air and exclaiming "We have an idea!"
"Allright, Violet. Come up here and tell us about it." Sally said.
Violet, Klaus and Sunny walked up to the stage and took their spots in front of the podium. All three had huge smiles since they were so proud of the plan they had figured out the previous night.
"What should we do?" the corpse father asked them.
"My sister here figured this logic out last night: Since Myra is an evil witch that uses dark powers, she obviously cannot stand good light like sunlight." Klaus said.
"We know that, she won't even use an umbrella during the day like we do." one of the vampires said.
"Yes, we know that too. But think of it, if she can't stand good light then wouldn't that be a good way to defeat her?" Klaus said.
It took the citizens a while, but they slowly began to get the idea of where the Baudelaires were going with their plan to help get rid of Myra.
"Allright, I like that idea. But how will we use sunlight to get rid of her?" the small witch asked.
"Klaus here will read up on ways that we can capture sunlight, while I will think of an invention that we can use to do it. Sunny will use her biting skills as a distraction to Myra so we can attack her." Violet said.
The small witch grinned as she slowly started clapping, which was soon followed by clapping from her sister, the tall witch. Slowly, everyone started clapping which turned into a huge round of applause for the children. As they walked off the stage back to their seats, they felt quite proud that they were able to come up with such a wonderful, amazing plan to help the citizens of Halloweentown. Their only hope was that they would be able to finish it in time to get rid of Myra.
