Chapter One
The Baudelaires darted down the alleyway. Olaf was not far behind, so they had to work really quickly. They watched his car drive by, then dove into a stack of hay nearby. They expected nothing to happen, butt...
They fell.
Klaus was the first to look up. He saw that they were in a secret tunnel. They looked at each other, then looked down, and saw a trap door.
"Do you think this is safe?" Violet asked.
"Gack!" Sunny shouted. Which might have meant something like "Well, unless we want Olaf to get us, it's the only choice."
"well, that just about seals it for me." Violet responded.
But they saw something else that sealed it even more than that. They saw the symbol engraved into the trap door.
It looked just like the Symbol for VFD, as well as the tatoo that was always on Olaf's ankle.
They turned to each other for the third time in a row in this story, and Violet asked another question
"Do you think this is safe?"
"We've done a lot of things so far that weren't the least bit safe, and we still survived, so we'll have to take a chance." Klaus remarked.
Upon this, they opened the trapdoor, and plunged down into the passageway below, closing the door behind them.
Okay, after at least three responses

suddenly, there was an extremely bright flash of white, and the baudelaires didn't remember much more that happened after that.
What they do remember is all of the sudden falling out of the sky, and dropping really fast towards the ground, and when they hit it, if felt like...sand.
they felt it, and then they were sure it was sand.
"What was that?" Violet asked, turning to Klaus.
"I think it was a time machine. They've been developing one, I read about it one time, but never really gave it a second thought." Klaus answered.
"Dooku?" Sunny asked, which meant something along the lines of, "What makes you so sure?".
Klaus caught his breath, then answered.
"Pirate Ship." and in the distance that is indeed what they saw. A humongous Pirate ship headed towards them.
"Things are getting worse for us all of the time." Violet said.
"Well, we'll need a plan." Klaus answered. "I've read a great deal about Pirates, we could join the crew." Klaus continued.
"Well, it seems like the only plan we've got." Violet answered, then looked at the ominous ship heaaded towards the island.

Not bad, but a little too far-fetched. It just isn't Lemony Snicket style, which is why some people may not like it. It's just relative.

I like it, but a time machine is a bit un-Lemony Snicket, just not real.
I guess the same with hypnotism, but this is more far-fetched.

Uh...a simpler way would be to not keep reading it, but if you want the reviewers, then don't say stuff like that. I don't know if you're open to constructive criticism or not, but I am, so I gave some. It was light, but if it offended you, tell me and I will reword it.
