Info
A Series of Unfortunate Events, By Lemony Snicket, had a mild ending. I have decided to write down the future of the story, with 10 year old Beatrice Snicket venturing the world with evil around every corner. The Never Ending Beginning, Book 15, is where the story begins. Please enjoy the story and use constructive critiscm.

Chapter One
"Time Repeats Itself"
A wise saying told by many. It is believed to be true. Most people believe it is just a stupid saying. But, here with the case of Beatrice Snicket, it is a fact to be told. It is my duty to tell you all about the 'Repeated' story of Beatrice Snicket. She repeated the time of a few other people. People she knew alright. And they are another case that were taken on by my dear friend, Lemony Snicket. The Baudelaires.

Some say the Baudelaires and the newly born Beatrice Snicket would live happily ever after. Why some say the unfortunate events continued. To the ones who say it continued, you are correct. The misery began again when the Baudelaires and Beatrice took off, sailing back to the world.
"Where shall we go to?" asked Klaus.
"Anywhere, I suppose" replied Violet. "Our misfortune must be to an end..."
"Really?" asked Sunny, biting down on some apples.
"Well, now that we know the mysteries to our past, and our enemies are gone, I suppose we're fortunate now..." said Violet.
"Budagh" said Beatrice cheerfully.
Beatrice Snicket was much like Sunny. She had strong teeth and talked like Sunny did years past. 'Budagh' meant something along the lines, "What about my misfortune?" Beatrice was right, of course. The three Baudelaires had been having many unfortunate events. From the fire that destroyed their house and their parents, to the death of Count Olaf and Kit Snicket. They thought it was all over. But for Beatrice, it was just the beginning. The only misfortune of Beatrice Snicket was the death of her mother, Kit.
The three Baudelaires looked at eachother and were silent for a while. They sat and sat, thinking about what Beatrice said. Occasionally, Violet would tie up her hair, Klaus would look at his commonpalce book, or Sunny would bite down on a wooden spoon she had found.
It was all silent until Beatrice pointed at the sky and said, "Bad".
"What is it, Beatrice?" asked Violet, running over to Beatrice.
Beatrice kept pointing up towards a long row of dark, grey clouds getting closer and closer to the small boat. The Baudelaires were hoping not to encounter another storm at sea. But as they say, "Time Repeats Itself..."
"Hurry, put the sail down!" said Violet picking up Beatrice.
"But why?!" asked Klaus, running towards the sail.
"The sail will blow us around until we meet our fate!" replied Violet taking down the sail.
This storm was much bigger than the earlier one they faced. The waves were taller than my Aunt Kendra's prize-winning Maple Tree. (Three times the size to get close)
"We'll never make it!" yelled Klaus, ducking giant waves splashing the boat.
"Yes we will!" yelled Violet, setting Beatrice in a wooden basket they found before they took off.
"You'll be safe in here" said Violet, rubbing Beatrices head.
Beatrice looked up at Violet and smiled a little. Suddenly, a big 'Thump!' tilted the boat and soon there was silence. Beatrice opened her eyes and saw she was soaked with water. She jumped up and tried opening the basket. Once she did, she was shocked. The storm was over and long gone. But the boat was missing. And so were its passengers. Beatrice looked down and saw a hair ribbon like Violet's floating in the water. Beatrice grabbed the ribbon and closed the basket. She held the hair ribbon close to her and cried. Beatrice Snicket, in a wooden basket, was now alone at sea...

OK. It IS a good idea to kind of continue an *awesome* series that left about forty questions, but who can really capture the essence of Snicket/Handler? I mean, sure, it's easy to "continue" Harry Potter, etc., but Lemony Snicket is so unpredictable (and so knowledgable about aphorisms) that it's even funner to add on to the series for fun, but basically, he's in his own class.
Oh, and: You should try reading The Unathorized Autobiography or The Beatrice Letters. (Maybe even Horseradish, but I haven't bought it yet, so I dunno.)
