"I suppose you know why you're here," the Trunchbull spat at Matilda.
Young Matilda shook her head from side to side, "No Miss Trunchbull..."
"So are you able to tell me who carved 'the trunchbull is a beast!' on a tree and cut the same sentence in all my gym shorts?" the trunchbull shouted. "I think a trip to the Chokey will do you some good! And I will have a word with your father!"
Matilda gasped. How long would she be in there for? And her dad! What will her dad say?
The muscley woman took Matilda by the wrist and pulled her towards a thin cupboard. She pulled the door open, threw the small girl in and slammed the door Trunchbull made a weird noice that seemed like it should be some form of a laugh.
Of course Matilda took use to her height and sat on the bottom of the cupboard. She held her knees tight and sat very still. She felt a small prick on her back which was probably one of the spikes.
What felt like days, the cupboard door finally opened.
"how is it possible that you were able to sit on the floor?" Boomed the Trunchbull, "No normal child is able to do that!"
"See?" Miss Honey said, "I told you the child is not normal!"
"Nah nah nah. you be quiet Miss Honey! Tomorrow Matilda will come back here when the bell goes and i will find another way of punish her. Now leave! Both of you!"
After they had left the office Miss Honey looked sadly at Matilda, "Are you hurt?" she asked concerned.
Matilda spoke softly, "Not badly..."

Miss Honey had walked Matilda home. Matilda gave the teacher a big hug then walked into the house.
"Where have you been?" shouted the father "We just had a call from your headteacher, Miss Trunchback!"
Mrs Wormtail tutted in the background.
"Explain yourself missie!" mr Wormwood shouted on
"I did nothing and got locked in the Chockey anyway. I am also facing another punishment tomorrow!" Matilda said and skipped to her room.
"No food for you tonight!" her mother called after her.
Matilda started coming up with a trick aand before she went to sleep she finnally came up with something...
