Sweet Seduction

I am going to be leaving for vacation today and won't be here to update until Friday. My sister is getting her laptop fixed, so I won't be able to bring it. :( So here is my last chapter for the next five days.

Gabriela stood in front of the mirror. She couldn't believe she was actually going to this big party. Her parents were so thrilled that she was getting out more.

"There is our little princess" her mother gushed, when Gabriela came down the stairs.

"It's no big deal! I'm just going because Jessy wants to go!"

"Oh, I'm sure you will love it" her father said.

Gabriela rolled her eyes and went to the door.

"Unlikely" she said, as she walked out the door.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"It's freezing!" Gabriela complained, as she and Jessy walked to the huge factory.

"And how are we going to get in if the gate is shut?" Jessy asked.

Gabriela pulled out the invitation from her purse.

Please enter through the underground

"The underground?" Gabriela asked, confused.

Jessy shrugged. "Maybe we have to go through the back"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You would think The Great Willy Wonka would be more be more organized than this" Gabriela muttered.

Jessy was tapping the walls, trying to find some sort of secret door.

"Hopeless! I don't even know why I came"

"Lighten up will you?" Jessy told her sister.

"Looking for the way in?" a voice asked.

Gabriela turned around to see Charlie standing there. He had one of those James Bond, kind of tuxedos on, and his messy brown hair was slicked back. Charlie was wearing a kind of Phantom of the Opera mask, where only one half of his face was covered.

"I should have never had Mr. Wonka write those invitations" he said.

"Please tell me, you can get us in!" Gabriela pleaded.

Charlie laughed.

"Well, I do work here!"

"Good! I need to get out of of this cold"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Is this your idea of making your Phantom character more realistic?" Gabriela asked, as the three of them walked down a dimly lit, hallway. Charlie had taken them through a trapdoor in front of the gates. Curiously, it was covered in snow, which made Gabriela wonder how other guests found the entrance.

"Huh?" Charlie said.

"Haven't you seen the movie?" Jessy asked. "The Phantom leads Christine down a hallway, just like this"

"Well, I didn't know I was recreating the scene" Charlie said, surprised.

"How did all the other guests get inside?" Jessy asked.

"The gates opened at 6pm. They closed twenty minutes ago!" Charlie explained.

"Then why does the invitation say: Come at 8pm"

"Mr. Wonka's idea of a joke, I suppose. Maybe he didn't want you to come"

"I wouldn't want me to come neither" Gabriela said, holding up her dress, so it wouldn't get dirty.

Charlie smiled. "I know that! But you did come"

Gabriela frowned. "Just who came here anyway?"

"You know, aspiring candy makers, reporters, fashion designers...that kind of thing"

"Mr. Wonka doesn't seem like the kind of person to invite those types of people" Jessy said.

"He didn't. I did" Charlie answered.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

'Here we are" Charlie said. After 20 minutes of walking down the underground hallway, they finally reached a door.

He pulled the door open. The girls were surprised that it wasn't locked.

At first glance, you couldn't see anything. However, a few seconds later, and a long runway illuminated with lights sprang up. Gabriela looked around the room. No people were in sight.

"After you Gabby" Charlie said. Gabriela cast a glance at the boy, who just nodded his head in the direction of the room.

"Alright" Gabriela said, taking a step onto the runway.

"Now what?" she asked. Suddenly, Gabriela heard the closing of a door from behind. She turned around to see that the door she entered through was shut and Charlie and Jessy were nowhere to be seen.

"Open the door!" Gabriela demanded. No response. Gabriela sighed, and looked ahead.

Very nice joke, you two" Gabriela muttered.

"Well let me guess Charlie. The only way to go back is go forwards?" Gabriela asked. No response

"I'm getting out of here" she said, putting on her feathered mask.

"Best not to be noticed by that dumb candy maker" Gabriela said, thinking of Willy Wonka. She looked down the runway, and started walking.

Sorry, if it's still a bit short for the moment. I kinda had to rush through this a bit. When I get back, it's going to be better
