Pizza kills 4:
They now stood inside the room. It was amazing. All around her the colors were so…vivid. It was like turning up the color full blast.
"This is my chocolate room. Everything is eatable Even me…" he said.
"But that's cannibalism and is frowned upon in most societies," she finished.
He smiled at Cheryl and went on to talk about the chocolate fall. She tasted a few things careful of her braces. She wished he had got her after she had gotten them off. No one fell in the chocolate river. They were all sampling things when she saw Candy. She tried to get her attention. She so did not want to do the call. She took a deep breath and called her.
Every oompa loompa stopped working and looked at her as Candy came over to her. She smiled and turned her back missing the glazed over look in Wonkas eyes. She squatted down and looked warily at Candy.
"I can't do this. I shouldn't be here." She said.
Candy…spoke. "You can."
Cheryl sighed, "Can I at least take off the hat?"
Candy sighed and held out her hand taking it. She bopped Cheryl on the head with it and walked off. She was going to say something but she thought better of it. She didn't want to wake up one day bald. Just as she turned back she saw a large…candy boat. He helped all the ladies onto the boat except Donna.
She listened as he talked about the boat. Soon they were in a dark tunnel and he was talking. It was entrancing almost. She shook her head when she hears a splash. Naomi was in the chocolate.
"You're contaminating my chocolate!" he screamed. He calmed and looked at them, "A fat kid fell in last time."
He soon turned back and she heard from Donna that Naomi grabbed Mr. Wonkas stick…hint hint…and he freaked. She laughed and looked around at the different doors as they passed. They were amazing. They passed a room full of caramel candy. Cheryl frowned sadly.
"Candy," she said sadly.
He turned and spoke to her, " Turn that frown upside down."
She laughed and then stopped remembering the braces. He winked and they got out. They were in a room with…lickable wallpaper. She could tell that Anne was flirting with Mr. Wonka. He looked ready to hurl. She walked over to listen.
"You look even better in person Mr. Wonka," she said in what Cheryl assumed was a fake Marilyn Monroe voice.
"Um…. thank you?" he said and laughed nervously.
"Do you think we could talk…alone?" she asked touching his jacket lapels.
He looked like he was going to hurl. I knew why. Her perfume was making my eyes burn. He stepped back.
"Why don't you try the wallpaper," I said. "It's incredible."
She fell for it. We both watched as she sexily licked the wallpapers slowly. It was the most pornographic thing I'd seen since…I'd like to not remember.
"Delicious, but I'm sure you taste better." She said.
Then we watched with amusement as she…broke out. It was horrible. She had to be taken out by a group of oompa loompas. I tried not to laugh really. I was snorting up a storm. When I saw him looking I stopped and started whistling. We were headed to the next room when I felt someone looking at me. It was Donna. She motioned me over, as Mr. Wonka seemed to be looking for something.
"Hey," she said.
"Hey," I said and shifted my eyes.
"I like your dress…it's groovy." She smiled.
"Um…sure." I said eyeing her warily.
"What do you say we leave this weirdo and you and I go have a drink…at my place?" she asked leaning close and putting an arm around me.
I removed her arm and moved to the side.
"I'm sure you're nice and all but my boat doesn't float that way," I hurried away and we were soon in a glass elevator. Donna fell.
We entered a room where they were shelling nuts. We went down to the floor to get a closer look. He mentioned the trash shoot and I went over to get a look. I squeaked. She pinched my butt. To bad for her is scared me…and the squirrels. She was soon down the shoot. They pushed her…not me.
And there was one. I looked at him and then away blinking. It was just me left. I won. I tilted my head to the side having a moment. I didn't notice him watching me. When I did I startled.
"Just you and me," I said.
"You're really weird," he said.
"Weird is good," I said.
"Yeah…." He said.
We both took a deep breath.
"So…now what?" I asked.
"You won!" he said.
I blinked, "I got that part." I said.
"We should talk…after lunch." He said and walked past me.
I hurried to catch him. We went into the glass elevator. Soon we were back in the chocolate room. We got out and walked towards a house I had seen. I knew it to be the buckets house. He knocked and they told him to come in.
"Hello Mrs. Bucket," he said.
"Hello Willy," she said.
"Hey yah weirdo," said grandpa George.
"Hello old coot," said Willy laughing.
"Whose the young lady?" asked grandpa Joe.
"This young lady is…um," he laughed nervously.
"Cheryl," I said and laughed then stopped.
"Great…another nut," said grandpa George.
"I like nuts," said grandma Georgina.
"I don't. They get in my braces." I said.
We sat down and had a hearty lunch. Lucky for me nothing to chewy. It was soon time for me to go. Candy and I were shown to the gate and we left in the car. That was the end to the day…I thought. We pulled up to what looked like a house. Candy told me to go ring the doorbell. I thought I was going home. As soon as the door opened I about crapped my pants. Standing there…was Dr. Wonka.
"You must be Cheryl," he said evenly.
"No," I said and went to leave.
I soon found myself lying back in the chair from hell as I call them. He went about checking my teeth ignoring my protests.
"They're ready to come out. How long have you had them?" he asked.
"Four years," I said. "My dentist wanted them straight…straight."
He quietly went to work. Soon my braces were off. He cleaned my teeth and soon handed me a mirror. My own teeth mesmerized me. They were white. I mean professor Lockhart white. They were so straight to. He gave me some kit I'm sure he usually gave to little kids and sent me on my way.
The ride back to the factory was quiet. It was weird smiling without my braces. I ran my tongue over my teeth. When we got back to where the factory was…it was gone. I stood there in shock. What the heck was going on? Candy and I got back in the car and headed back to the only place we knew.
