Back to the Chocolate Factory

AND THEN THE NOISE of splintering wood and broken glass and absolute darkness and the most awful crunching sounds as the Elevator rushed on and on, smashing everything before it.

All at once, the crashing noises stopped and the ride became smoother and the Elevator seemed to be traveling on guides or rails, twisting and turning like a roller coaster. And when the lights came on, Charlie suddenly realized that for the last few seconds he hadn’t been floating at all. He had been standing normally on the floor. Mr. Wonka was on the floor, too, and so was Grandpa Joe and Mr. and Mrs. Bucket, and also the big bed. As for Grandma Josephine, Grandma Georgina and Grandpa George, they must have fallen right back onto the bed because they were now all three on top of it and scrabbling to get under the blanket.

“We’re through!” yelled Mr. Wonka. “We’ve done it! We’re in!” Grandpa Joe grabbed him by the hand and said, “Well done, sir! How splendid! What a magnificent job!”

“Where in the world are we now?” said Mrs. Bucket.

“We’re back, Mother!” Charlie cried. “We’re in the Chocolate Factory!”

“I’m very glad to hear it,” said Mrs. Bucket. “But didn’t we come rather a long way round?”

“We had to,” said Mr. Wonka, “to avoid the traffic.”
