3. One down, four to go!
Charlottes P.O.V
We walked down the shrinking hallway and stopped at the teeny tiny door.
"This is one of the most important rooms in the whole factory!" I exclaimed.
"Then whys the door so small?" Mike teavee asked me.
Dad smiled "it's to keep all the great big chocolaty flavor inside."
He pushed the door open and everyone gasped, I smirked looking around at all their faces. You'd swear they never saw a candy forest before.
"Don't lose your heads" I told them "don't get over excited."
"Just remain calm" my father said.
We walked up the grass and over the waterfall "the waterfall is most important. It churns the chocolate, makes it light and frothy."
"No other factory in the world mixes there chocolate by waterfall" I added "how cool is that?"
As dad ushered them across he said "people! Those pipes suck up the chocolate and carry it away all over the factory…yeah."
"Please try some of our grass" I offered.
"You can eat the grass?" asked Charlie.
"Of course" I said looking him in the eyes, wow his eyes were pretty, like chocolate milk.
"Everything in this room is edible" dad said snapping me out of my trance "even I'm edible, but that is called cannibalism my dear children. And is in fact frowned upon in most societies."
"Enjoy!" I said gesturing around the room.
Everyone rushed off and Mr. Salt stared at us like we were crazy. Dad and I stared back as if to say why yes, we're completely off our rockers.
He walked away slowly almost freaked out, I gave a little giggle, and sat on the ground. I picked up a blade of grass and nibbled on it. I also observed what everyone else was doing. Violet was biting into a candy apple, veruca was liking a lollipop, and Augustus was eating pretty much everything. Mike was destroying jelly pumpkins which really ticked me off.
I stormed off in mikes direction, dad told me to be good but this was ridiculous, there was no reason for him to be doing that. I walked up to him and crossed my arms.
"What are you staring at?" he shot at me.
"I grew those jelly pumpkins with my dad" I growled.
"Oh, I'm sorry" he said "let me go crush the rest!"
He shoved me down on the ground and lifted his foot to crush another, but before he could veruca said "daddy, look!" pointing to the oompa loompa's at work.
Mike spared the jelly pumpkin and ran over to see what was going on. Charlie ran over and helped me up.
"Are you alright?" he asked.
"Yeah, thank you" I said getting up.
I smiled at him, he smiled back.
"Charlotte! Come quickly the oompa loompa's are singing!" my dad called from the river bank.
"Oh, that's rare!" I told Charlie "but then again they haven't had an audience in a while."
We all watched as the oompa loompa's sang and danced their hearts out and we also watched as Augustus was sucked up the pipe.
"Aren't they wonderful?" said dad and I as we clapped.
"Where does that pipe go?" asked Mrs. Gloop.
"To the fudge room" I said simply.
"So, he will be made into fudge?!" she screeched.
"Ugh, no it would taste terrible!" I said.
"Also no one would buy it" added dad.
An oompa loompa came by and brought her to the fudge room.
"on with the tour" dad and I said.
