To Beatrice- You shall fly high above me, as you did before.
Chapter One. If you have ever been to the beach, or to a lagoon, you would enjoy, jumping around on your rubber ring or feel the breeze go by on your face in a speed boat, so you could enjoy your day out. But you wouldn't like to be carried along by a current-a word which here means "water that pulls you along very quickly and is very strong" as appose to the food, the current, in which you may enjoy to eat. If you have read the previous 10 books in A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS then you should know Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaires luck and if you were asked, weather they would be relaxing on an inflatable, or on a speed baot, or weather they would be pulled along the Stricken Stream by a current, the answer would obviolsy be being pulled by a current, because that is unfortuantely the three childrens luck, so if you would like to read about rubber rings, or speed boats, I suggest you put this book down and find something else. The Baudelaire children were being pulled down the Stricken Stream and they certinly wiched they had a rubber ring, or a speed boat becsue this current was very rough and very strong and they could barley scream, becuse they'd dip into the water and have to push up again. "Klaus," Violet manadged to scream," Come to the toboggen!" Klaus began to swim toward Violet and Sunny who had clambered onto the tobbogan, that, like them, had dipped down and up, and so wasn't particualy safe. "I'm trying!" Klaus screamed back and he atreched his arm out as he arose form the water. Violet stretched hers out as well and they clutched their hands together and Violet pulled Klaus onto the wooden toboggan, that becuse it was wooden and had three passengers and the power of the water on top of it, gave way and slipped down into the water and the children stayed up, fighting with the water, excpet for Violet, whose ankle had been strapped to the sterring device on the taboggon. "Violet!" Sunny screamed as Klaud held her becuse as a baby, c0uldn't swim. But there was no reply. "Sunny," Klaus said," I'm going to have to go under and get Violet." "K!" Sunny shriecked," Whcih meant, "Okay, but what about me?" "Try t0 stay up!" Klaus said, and ducked his head in the water. He could see the toboggon, freeing itslf from the sand and moving along slightly, but Violet Baudelaire was not tied to it anymore and Klaus would have searched but he needed to breath and pushed himslef back through the water to see Sunny and tell her, but when he came to the surface of the water, he could see that no such person was there. Klaus frantically looked around, but neither of his sisters were in sight. All three Baudelaires were alone, but little did they know that they would end up in the same place. Most rivers or streams, end up in an ocean and thats where all three Baudelaires were heading.

(Picture of a seagull) Chapter Two, "Crying over spilt milk" is of course nothing to do with anyone crying because their drink has been knocked over. It simply means, "don't make a big deal over silly little things that don't make a difference." For instance, Violet wasn't crying over split milk, when her and Klaus were in the Freaks Caravan and was franitcally screaming. I wasn't crying over split milk when I sobbed and sobbed over my loved ones death and Klaus wasn't crying over spilt milk, as he was yanked down the Stricken stream and crying about his sisters. Sunny had only recently been rescued from being kidnapped by Count Olaf and hoped that wasn't the case here. "Violet!" he yelled again," Sunny!" But the reply was the wind and the waves and Klaus realized that he could save his sisters, once he was safe himself. "Maybe I can invent something," he said to himself," But I haven't got inventing skills, and the only thing I could use is the taboggan." He could feel the toboggan with his feet, as it moved down the stream with him. "Maybe I could bite something," he said," But I don't have sharp teeth like Sunny." Then another loud of wind and water rushed past and Klaus knew what he was going to do. He was going to invent something and take a page out of Violets book as he grabbed the taboggen from the rushing waters and held it as the current pushed him along. "I could use the steering device," he said to himself," And attach them together to make a long rope and---a lassoo!" He looked down at the two leather steering device. "I could bite them!" he said and although he had normal teeth, they did in a pinch, and the two leather ropes were seperated from the wood soon enough. "Perfect!" Klaus said," And began attching the ropes together. Then tied a knot in one to make a large hoop in it and he swung it around his head, hoping that thsi time, his inventing skills were just as good as his sisters. He kept, the wood of the tobbogen in one hand, in case the lassoo failed and he needed it. There was another big wave of water and he flung forward. He could only see mist ahead of him, and he was sure he needed touse his invention now, before it was too late. He swung the lassoo over his head one more time and then clutched onto the non-hooped end, and let the hoop hopefully loop onto something. It did, something over the rocks, that Klaus couldn't see, but he pulled himself towrds it although the current pulled the oposite way. Strands of the leather rope flicked off, and it began to snap, but Klaus had stumbled up onto the big rocks just in time, and as the rope snapped and was rushed away by the Stricken Stream, Klaus looked around to see what it was that the lassoo had hooked onto, and the answer was a hook. The hook led to an arm and the arm led to a chest and a full body and Klaus stumbeled up onto the rock he saw the hook handed man, Count Olaf, Esme, Hugo, Collete, Kevin and some snow scouts that had joined Count Olaf, including Carmelita Spats, who was holding Esme's hand at the front. "Well, well, well," the hook handed man sneered," Look what we have here!" They all laughed and that laughed made Klaus know his invention failed. It had worked, of course, getting him out of the Stircken Stream, but the point of thew invention was to keep him safe, and he was sure that it had not done that.
Chapter three soon!

Cool! Mines fairly Similar to ASoUE but they're quite cool. I'm on the seventh one. Also, the shortest is 97 pgs and the longest is 163, which is longer than The Bad Beginning. If I sounf like I'm showing off, sorry.

Chapter 3. "Well, well, well," Count Olaf said," Looks like a Baudebrat!" "A cakesniffer!" Carmelita sneered, sticking out he tounge. Klaus looked back. He could jump back into the water, but where would that leave him? He only had the taboggon in his hands, that was dripping with water from the Stricken Stream and he couldn't see anywhere to go. "Okay," Count Olaf said," Who thinks we should cspture the bookworm and then Kill the other two. Then, we can burn down the last safe place, and get the Baudelaire fortune!" "Me!" Esme said. "Me!" Carmelita sneered. "Me!" the hook handed man spat. "Me!" Hugo laughed. "Me!" Collete trumphantly giggled. "Me!" Kevin yelled. "Me?" said the Snow Scouts, nervously. "Okay then," Count Olaf said," We shall-" "Darling," Esme interrupted," The bokkworms running away!" They all turned to see Klaus clambering over the high rocks ahead of them. "Get him then!" Count Olaf said. "Not in this dress!" Esme screamed," I want the fortunae, but my "in" dress will get ruined. "I'll go," ssi Collete and she quickly contortion her slf up the rocks. Klaus looked back and saw his previous co-worker and sighed, as he continues to climb rocks, that were eading back to the MortMain Mountians. He wondered why she was chasing him now. It began to snwo and Klaus began to climb up Mount Fraught again. Collete as right behind him and he got quite high. Collete caught Klaus and he screamed. But he had more to scream about when he shived Collet off and she bagn to fall, pulling him with him. They both screamed, as Count Olaf jumped up to see. "That bookworm is dead!" he cried. "What about Collete?" Hugo asked," She's dead as well." "We have to make sacrisfices, Hugo," Count Olaf explained. But Collete and Klaus hadn't hit the floor yet......................
