Hello hello it's that time of the week again! Here's the next chapter as promised! I was fearing I wouldn't be able to get the final bit done last evening due to the stormy weather knocking out the wifi for a good 4-6 hours but all is good! Hope you all enjoy this chapter!
While the babies explored down in the dead letter office, Stu, who was pretty fed up at this point, had finally made it to the front of the line at the front desk.
"Finally! I'm here to pick up a package for Stu Pickles." Stu said handing his order ticket to the receptionist
Luckily the receptionist working this time around wasn't the same older man, but instead a lady who seemed to be in her early 30s.
"Yes, give me one moment and I'll get the package right to you as soon as possible." The receptionist said, taking the ticket from Stu as she turned to the nearby bin full of letters and packages.
Rummaging through the bin for a few moments she pulled out the package addressed to Stu as she made her way back to the desk handing the large box over to Stu.
"Here you go Sir! Is that all you needed today?" The receptionist asked
"Nope that should be it, thank you." Stu said, grabbing the box as he turned to leave. "Come on kids, let's get out of here."
Carrying the large box over to the exit, Stu hadn't noticed that the kids were not following, or even actually there for that matter. As he was walking out the security guard that watched over the building in the evening had locked the door behind him upon his exit as Stu was the last customer served for the evening. The security guard whistled as he went off to the break room to get something to drink from the vending machine while the last of the employees shut off the equipment and some of the lights before leaving for the evening themselves. Meanwhile, Stu had loaded the large box into the trunk of the car as he dusted off his hands.
"There we go, now let's get you kids into your car seats and then we ca- Kids? Kids, where are you?!" Stu had turned to notice the kids were not around him or in the parking lot as he frantically looked around the now empty lot. "Oh no..."
Stu groaned as he ran back over to the front doors of the post office banging on the door and looking in the now empty lobby of the front desk.
"Hey! Anybody in there? Hellooo!" Stu called out trying to see if anyone was still around.
Unfortunately for Stu the security guard hadn't returned to his security post at a desk near the front door. Stu let out another groan, Didi was going to kill him if he didn't come back with the kids.
Around the same time, back down with the kids, the babies, minus Phil and Lil of course, continued observing their surroundings as they walked through what seemed to be a partially abandoned part of the facility.
"Look at all the neat toys that got lefteded down here!" Kimi exclaimed, rushing over to a pile of letters and packages and grabbing a paddle ball toy and playing with it
"Be careful Kimi, you don't knows what kinds of monsters could be down here." Chuckie warned
Suddenly the lights cut out, with the exception of a few emergency overhead lights, resulting in Chuckie screaming.
"AAAH! What happened to the lights? Now I really can't see!" Chuckie screamed
"It's okay Chuckie, there's still some light. We just have to stays together so we don't get losteded in here." Tommy reassured his friend, giving him a pat on the shoulder.
Meanwhile, deeper in the facility but not too far from where the other babies were, Phil and Lil were still in search of any sign of Chuckie. Phil, currently having Chuckie's glasses on his face, wobbly walks ahead of his sibling as wearing the glasses warped his vision the same way it did to Tommy and Angelica when they wore them once long ago.
"Wooah Chuckie's glasses is making the world all spiny and scary." Phil said, trying to keep his balance
"Can you see Chuckie anywhere with his glasses Phillip?" Lil asked following close behind, now munching on some of the remaining chocolates in the candy box.
"Not yet." Phil answered when the lights cut on their end of the dead letter office as well causing them both to yelp in surprise
"Oops I guess it's night night time heres now." Lil muttered
Both twins then heard Chuckie's scream echo through the halls of the office as they both let out a gasp.
"That sounded like Chuckie!" Lil exclaimed
"He must be back this ways, come on." Phil said, urging his sister back the way the came from, stumbling in the direction they just came from.
Both groups of babies made their way towards each other as they carefully tread through the many scattered piles of letters across the floor. Chuckie had Kimi guide him along the path they were going, mostly due to not being able to see, but at the same time Chuckie was keeping his eyes closed not wanting to see the scary things he may see with his warped, blurry, vision.
"Come on Chuckie there's nothing scary down here." Kimi said, trying to get her brother to open his eyes
"You don't know that, there could be clowns or shadow mans or or-AAAH what's that?!" Chuckie said, slowly opening his eyes as he saw a red feather duster on an extension handle, though to him it looked like a monster.
"Chuckie, that's just a feathery duster." Kimi said
"It is?" Chuckie asked, moving cautiously closer and blinking as his vision cleared a little "Oh I guess it is." Chuckie giggled
"See, Kimi was right, there's nothing scary down heres." Savannah said
At the same time of Savannah mentioning about nothing being scary a rustling of some letters could be heard as they all gasped and turned towards the source of the sound.
"Monster! Run away!" Chuckie screamed ducking near the feather duster to hide in a pile of letters
"Chuckie is that yous?" Phil asked running up to the feather duster mistaking it for Chuckie as to him it looked like Chuckie
"Uh that's a feathery dusty thingy, Phil." Dil said
"Oh." Phil said blinking and seeing that it was indeed a feather duster as he turned towards the other babies as Lil walked up next to him
Tommy, spotting Chuckie's glasses on Phil's face, gave a smile as he ran up to the twins "You founded them!"
Lil, thinking Tommy was referring to the now empty box of chocolates as the box they were supposedly looking for, let out a small gasp hiding the box behind her. Luckily for her Tommy paid no mind to the chocolates as Tommy reached to take Chuckie's glasses from Phil's face and handing them back to the red head.
"Here ya go Chuckie." Tommy said
"Finally." Chuckie huffed as he took his glasses from the two year old and put them back on as he turned to Phil and Lil. "Thanks for finding my glasses you guys."
"No problem Chuckie." Lil said
"So are we still looking for your daddy's box, Tommy?" Phil asked
"Hmm nah he probably gotteded by nows asides I never got to splore this place when I was here the firstest time." Tommy answered, now wanting to explore what was left of the dead letter office
"I don't think that's such a good idea Tommy! I mean someone turneded off the lights and it's really dark and their could be monsters in here. We should just go back and finds your daddy." Chuckie suggested
"Aw come on Chuckie stop being a baby, we can just do a little sploring and then we can go back to my daddy." Tommy said placing his hand on Chuckie's shoulder
Chuckie let out a long sigh as he knew there was no way to talk his friend out of this once he started on about something like this.
"Okay...but only for a little bit." Chuckie agreed
The now reunited group then headed back down the hallway hoping to find more interesting things to discover.
What other interesting things will the babies discover down in the dead letter office? Will Stu ever be able to get the kids out and back home? Find out next time!
