Violet is sat on a bar stool in the Rover's on her mobile phone
Violet: Yes mum, I'll pick the keys up in my lunchbreak, come to the Rover's at 7. The Rover's Return, where I work! You can't miss it, its on the corner. No there isn't any work going, I'll see you tonight.
She hung up and turned around Shelley was behind the bar.
Violet: Sorry Shell', it was me mam she's fretting about the new house.
Shelley: Its ok.
-------------------------------------------------------------- That night outside the Rover's a classic mercedes convertible pulls up. Outsteps a long-legged lady with a short red dress with a revealing neck-line. She looks at her watch, the seconds hand is at 10-to-7, she throws her matching red bag under her arm and charges into the pub.
The pub turns to see the tall blonde lady reeking of hair spray, obviously from her hair which has been carefully piled high on her head and soaked in the spray.
Eileen: Goodness me.
Les: Ooh, finally just what this pub needs...
Cilla: What does she think she looks like?
Liz: She looks like a traffic light!
Violet: Oh god! Mam, come here!!
Barbara: Violet, got the keys?
Violet: Why did you have to dress up like a flaming red light? Your only moving into a new house!
Barbera: That's what that slapper said behind the bar!
Violet: Liz.
Barbera: *Raises her voice* Whatever her name is, does she know its not Christmas yet, there's no need to do fancy dress...I mean why's she dressed up like a Christmas tree?
Karen spurts out her drink laughing.
Karen: Hi, have we met? I'm Karen. Liz's daughter-in-law.
Barbera: You going to defend her fasion sense?
Karen: No I can't stand her.
Barbera: Well, call me Babs: everyone does.
Violet: Karen if you don't mind-
Karen: You staying round here long?
Violet: Yes, moving in to one of the terraces on Rosamund Street, next to Roy's Rolls?
Karen: It'll be nice to have an ally around these parts.

Jason is chucking sand bags into the bag of Charlie's lorry off the forecourt. When a stranger walks into the yard:
Harry: Hi, you know where the Rover's Return is?
Jason: Yeah, just down their on the left. Looking for anyone in particular.
Harry: Yea, a girl called Violet, know her?
Jason: Know her?...yeah, why you want to talk to her.
Harry: We have some catching up to do?
Jason: You an ex
Harry: No!
Jason: You've got to admit she's pretty hot, mate.
Harry: What are you trying to say about me?
Jason: What you on a bout?
Harry: She's my cousin, you saying I'm into that?
Jason: No...no
-Harry hits Jason down onto the ground, he rolls over as Harry pulls him up by his shirt, there's blood rolling down Jason's face out of his nose. He throws him against the wall banging him on the head four times then throwing him down, Jason sits up holding his sore head and dabbing at his nose.
Harry leaves the yard wiping his bloody fists on his pants.
------------------------------------------- Babs is laughing at Fred's jokes over the top. Violet: HARRY!
Harry: Hiya Vi.
Babs: Harry, how nice to see you, but you stink. Meet Fred Elliot he owns this pub, and the butcher's shop, and the house across the street, and a butcher's shop at Fresco's. Now here's your key I will be chatting with Fred here for a while yet, so go and let yourself in...and have a shower.
----------------------------------------- Harry is walking upto the door of his house as a women in the street notices Jason stumbling round in the yard.
Women: Do you know him? You need to help
Harry: Sorry love, never seen him before.
He lets himself into the house.

Yes there definately will be very soon maybe later tonight. I've been doing moc-exams last two weeks and revising before that so I've been a bit busy to update this one and my emmerdale fanfiction. I have a lot of exciting ideas for this story. I think the character of Violet has a lot of potential

OK...you asked for it Eithne...I just need to remember some of the stories I had planned lol.
************************************************** Babs is sat at the table in the dining room, with a cup of tea, a slice of toast and a f*g in her hand. She's got her blonde locks in curlers and has big bags beneath her eyes like coal sacks. -Violet walks in
Violet: Morning mother!
Babs: Vi...SHUT UP!
Violet: If you will try to drink Karen McDonald under the table your going to have a sore head in the morning
Babs: Thats not why I am feeling so rough
Violet: Oh yeah, what happened got run over by a tram?
Babs: no...I just had a bad nights sleep.
Violet: Whatever?
Babs: Is Harry up yet?
Violet: That stinking pig...no! Tell him to behave himself will ya! He beat Jason to a pulp.
Babs: Well your boyfriend should learn how to stick up for himself.
Violet: You really want a smack?
Babs: Calm down Violet?
Violet walked out slamming the door behind her
-------------------------------------------------------------------- Karen is walking down the street in floods of tears after recieving the news that she has lost her beloved baby.
She walks into Streetcars.
Les: Eh! Whats up with you?
Karen: Nothing.
Eileen: Steve not bought you the designer pram?
Karen: Go to hell Eileen. Steve wants a cab.
Eileen: Which one?
Karen: Any one just give me the key
Eileen: Ok the maroon one on the forecourt
Les: Thats mine.
Eileen: What the boss wants the boss gets
Les: Well I'm not happy about it.
Karen: Thanks Les...you'll be rewarded in heaven
Karen left
Les: Whats up with her?
Eileen: Who knows?
---------------------------------------------------------------------- IN the Rover's.
Babs and Steve are chatting at the bar
Babs: How's Karen taking it?
Steve: Not to good.
Babs: Neither did I when I lost Violet #1.
Violet: So I'm Violet #2?
Babs: Shut up Vi.
Tracy: STEVE! YOUR MAD NUTTER OF A WIFE'S PULLING ONE HELL OF AN STUNT THIS TIME
Steve: Tracy, what are you on about?
Tracy: She's got one of your cabs and has just parked on the train track on the viaduct.
Steve: WHAT?
--Out side
Steve calls Karen's mobile
Steve: Karen what the hell are you doing?
Karen: Steve...I want to be with Leo
Steve: I want you here!
Karen: Why? Come up here Steve, die with me- our life is horrible, we live in a tiny flat, work in the most horrible conditions and live in the most wet place in england. We smoke, drink and swear. We never go to church and dont care about charities. We're never going to change however much we try. And thats why we weren't given Leo, because we would have turned him into us!
Steve: Karen-
Babs: There's a train coming
Steve: Karen, if you come down we'll move *Tracy's face drops* we'll live a better life..it is possible. Karen please...a train is coming...
Karen drives the car to the side of the tracks and Steve takes a deep sigh. As the train is a few seconds away Karen accelerates back onto the track.
Steve shouts "KAREN" as he runs down the street towards the scene of the iminent collision.
The train smashes into the car and hi-jacks the carriage causing it to swing round down onto the street. It smashes through the Kabin, into the Platt's, Harris' , and Peackthingys, debris flies off damagind the terraces, the hairdressers and underworld.
The car is crumpled and thrown off the tracks down onto coronation street on top of the rubble that was the Kabin.
Hope you enjoyed it...that finale came faster than I thought it would but don't worry there's still a lot more to come.

At the Rosamund Street end Coronation Street is taped off with Police tape, dust and smoke clouds are still emerging, there's crouds of people in tears , looking on at the emergency services trying to rescue, in vain, the innocent people who were crushed to death by debris and rubble from the houses.
Tyrone walks out into the street out of the garage calling out Maria's name.
The factory girls are being warned to stay inside by Danny.
Angela: But its lunchtime! Craig and Tommy, they'll be in the house!
Janice: Come on Ange- they'll be ok I mean we're ok and we're in the centre of the crash.
Angela: You think?
Janice: I know.
----------------------------- In the Rover's Violet is perched at the window watching the drama unfold
Shelley: Has the dust settled yet?
Violet: I can see....the salon its not damaged the windows have shattered but other than that it seems ok.
Fred: What about my house? - Violet, what about my house?
Violet: There's too much smoke coming from there I can't see a thing- WAIT, there's a breeze its blowing the dust.
The dust is blown back into the street and the wreckage that is the three maisonettes is surrounding the ruined train carriages.
Fred: Violet? Violet love...what is it?
Violet: There all gone: all the houses at that side of the street are gone.
Fred: Oh dear lord....
--------------------------------- Out in the street Katy Harris has run under the police tape upto her family's home, where she saw a body bag being taken out of the house.
PC: You there! You need to stay out of the street.
Katy: This is my family's house.
PC: You live here?
Katy: no, but...
PC: Is this a relative of yours
The police officer said as Craig was pulled out in a stretcher covered in cuts and blood; unconscious.
Katy: Its my brother...s-s-s-ssss-o thats my dad; he's dead?
PC: Its a man about mid 40's thats all we could make out, he's in a bad way dental records should confirm that he is your father.
Katy: DAD!!!!!!!!
---------- In the factory Angela recognises her daughters scream and makes a dash for the door as she breaks free she's surrouned my dust and smoke, she keeps running until she see's her daughter kneeling over the black body bag as its loaded into a mortuary van.
Angela: Tommy?
Katy: Oh mum
Angela collapses onto the dusty cobbles, Katy walks over and then too collapses.
Charlie comes running into the street wearing a face mask and a bag full of more of the things in his hand.
Charlie: There's something you should know- The Platt's garage repair I did
PC: The Platt's?
Charlie: The on the end...I used aspestos as a temporary support in one of the walls.
PC: You muppet!
The PC radio's everyone in the area of the news and gets everyone of the premices. -------------------------------------- IN the end there were 9 deaths: 4 residents: Tommy Harris, Angela Harris, David Platt, and Katy Harris
and 5 deaths of people on the train

Was this inspired by a recent news article about a possible Corrie storyline?
Anyway, it was very good I though. Not really about Violet, but anyway. I thought a few more people would be killed from the street, but they weren't.
