(Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie took them to something they should've thought about earlier. Their Great Glass Elevator. It was a more efficient way to get around the factory. They walked in and Flash commented on the many different buttons. The room was practically full of buttons. He didn't think there were this many floors. (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie asked him how he would know that. But this wasn't your ordinary up-and-down elevator.

This elevator could go sideways, longways, slantways, and any other ways you can think of. You just press any button and, whoosh, you're off. (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie pushed a button and they were off to a new room. They made their way through the factory until they made it to Fudge Mountain. A Mountain made completely of fudge where Oompa Loompas were chipping away at it to use later.

The next room was full of pink sheep that Oompa Loompas were sheering. This was where she made her cotton candy but (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie didn't want to talk about it. The next room was a puppet hospital and burn center which was rather new. The next room was the Administration Offices where (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie said hello to Doris who just waved back. And their next room was a firework room that (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie would never explain.

"Why is everything here completely pointless?" Flash asked

"Candy doesn't have to have a point. That's why it's candy," Peter said

"It's stupid!"

"Candy is a waste of time," Flashes voice changed into (D/N)'s and Odin's voices as (Y/N) and Loki had another flashback, "No daughter or son of our are going to be two chocolatiers."

"Then we'll run away," (Y/N) and Loki told them, "To Switzerland. Bavaria. The candy capitals of the world."

"Go ahead. But we won't be here when you two come back."

True to their words, (Y/N) and Loki did run away. They left the houses and went on their journey. But really it was to the local museum where a guard told them that they were closing for the night. Having nowhere else to go at the time, (Y/N) and Loki went back home only to see that the buildings have disappeared. (D/N) and Odin had stayed true to their words too. (Y/N) and Loki snapped out of their flashbacks and Flash said that he wanted to pick a room. (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie told him to go ahead. So, he pressed a button and they went to another room. This was the Television Room that held one of Maddie's greatest inventions.

They walked into the white and (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie told everyone to put some goggles on otherwise the light would burn their eyeballs right out of their skull. They all put the goggles on. Maddie started to explain what her invention was. Television Chocolate. One day it occurred to Maddie: "Hey, if television can break up a photograph into millions and millions of tiny pieces and send it whizzing through the air and then reassemble it on the other end why can't she do the same with chocolate?"

"Why can't Maddie send a real bar of chocolate through the television, ready to be eaten?" Mr. Tompson said that it sounded impossible. Flash told him that it was and started to explain what would have to happen to do what Maddie said. (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie yelled at him about the mumbling again and calmly told him that she still can't understand what he was saying. (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie then told everyone that they were now going to send a bar of chocolate from one end of the room to the other by television.

A group of Oompa Loompas brought in a giant bar of chocolate. It had to be big so it could become normal size on the TV. The bar was placed on a platform and (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie pushed a button, lifting it into the air. Some more lights turned on and an Oompa Loompa aimed a camera at it. It was sealed in a glass cylinder before a flash happened and the bar was gone. It was now being sent to the TV in the room. They went over to the TV to find it. The channel was on a monkey show and the chocolate bar slowly appeared in the scene.

(Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie told Flash to take it but he just said it was just a picture on a screen. So, (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie told Peter to do it. He reached in and took out the bar of chocolate that had shrunk during the journey. And it still tasted normal. So imagine, you're sitting at home watching television and suddenly a commercial will flash onto the screen, and a voice will say: "Wonka's chocolates are the best in the world. If you don't believe us, try one for yourself." And you simply reach out and take it. (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie loved the idea.

"So can you send other things? Say, like, breakfast cereal?" Mr. Tompson asked (Y/N)

"Do you have any idea what breakfast cereal's made of?" (Y/N) asked him, "It's those little curly wooden shavings you find in pencil sharpeners."

"But could you send it by Television if you wanted to?" Peter asked

"Of course, I could," Loki said

"What about people?" Flash asked

"Well, why would I wanna send a person? They don't taste very good at all."

"Don't you realize what you've invented? It's a teleporter. It's the most important invention in the history of the world. And all you 4 think about is chocolate."

"Calm down, Flash. I think The Wonkas know what they're talking about," Mr. Tompson said

"No, they don't. They have no idea. You think they're four geniuses, but they're four idiots. But I'm not."

Flash ran to the counsel they were at before to try and sent himself through the Television. He pushed the button that sent the chocolate and jumped on the platform. The lights turned on and Flash started floating. The lights flashed and Flash was gone. They looked on the TV but Flash wasn't there. But (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie was more concerned about Flash not coming back in one piece. Sometimes whatever they send through the TV doesn't always arrive in one piece. They told the Oompa Loompa to switch through the channels to find him. They soon found him on a News Station and one last Oompa Loompa song.

'The most important thing that we've ever learned. The most important thing we've learned as far as children are concerned is never, never let them near the television set, or better still just don't install the idiotic thing at all. Never, never let them Never, never let them. Never, never let them.'

They switched to a rock and roll channel.

'Never, never let them.'

'It rots the senses in the head.'

'It keeps imagination dead.'

'It clogs and clutters up the mind.'

'It makes a child so dull and blind.'

'So dull, so dull.'

'He can no longer understand.'

'A fairy tale, a fairyland. A fairyland, a fairyland.'

'His brain becomes as soft as cheese.'

'His thinking powers rust and freeze.'

'He cannot think, he only sees.'

Now a Beetles-like channel

'Regarding little Flash Tompson. We very much regret that we. Regret that we shall simply have to wait and see. Wait and see, wait and see. Wait and see, wait and see, wait and see. We very much regret that we shall simply have to wait and see if we can get him back his height but if we can't it serves him right.'

(Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie told someone to grab him so Mr. Tompson did. Flash was so small now but at least he was unharmed. Flash told (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie to put him back some other way. (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie said that there wasn't any way to put him back. It's television, not telephone. Two different things. Mr. Tompson asked (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie what they intended to do about this. (Y/N), Loki, Selena, and Maddie didn't know but young boys were extremely springy so the Taffy Puller. Mr. Tompson didn't much like the sound of that but it had to be done. They told an Oompa Loompa to take Mr. Tompson and Flash to the Taffy Puller to stretch Flash back to his normal size. Moving on once again.
