  It's a dark cloudy night in London 'I can't wait to see father and Olivia' I thinks as I make my way home, My names Abigail Flaversham and I've been traveling around for the past three years as a photographer. I've meet so many people and done so much, but nothing compares to returning home. As I get closer to the toy store I see the dim glow from the lights inside, smiling I pick  my luggage up higher and run to the door. Once I get their I knock a few times and wait "oh Abby" father says opening the door, he hugs me "oh my darling girl"
"I missed you father"
he pulls back from the hug "we've missed you too, come in" he opens the door for me.
"ABBY!"
I smile and open my arms "oh little one" I say hugging her "how I've missed you" I pull away "I have something for you" I say digging through my bag
she gasps "what is it?"
"happy birthday" I say taking a sliver locket out 

 "ABBY!" I smile and open my arms "oh little one" I say hugging her "how I've missed you" I pull away "I have something for you" I say digging through my bagshe gasps "what is it?""happy birthday" I say taking a sliver locket out

she smiles and hug it to her chest "I love it" 
"open it" I say, she dose and inside is a picture of me, her and father before I left 
"thank you Abby" she hugs me
"your welcome little one" 

we make our way over to where father is working, Olivia starts to play with a rocking horse and I sit next to her smiling "you know daddy, this is my vary best birthday"
"ah but I haven't given you your present yet" he says
"what is it? What is it?" 
father laughs "now, now close your eyes" he says Olivia covers her eyes as father goes over to the cupboard, she try's to peek but I catch her "no peaking" she laughs "wouldn't want to spoil the surprise" Father brings out something that's shaped like tulip petals. Olivia laughs again as father places it on the table and turns the crank on it a few times, when Olivia opens her eyes the petals turn into a ballerina and it dances around the table, both Olivia and I smile as we watch it. "oh daddy, you made this just for me?" I smile at her "but we have one more gift" he says taking a small box out of the same cupboard "welcome home Abigail" 
"what? for me?" I ask he smiles and nods, I open it and see a beautiful locket

"I love it" Olivia gets up and hugs me and father "your the most wonderful family in the whole world"Just then the door starts to rattles as some try's to brake open the door "who's that?" Olivia asks "father were you expecting anyone tonight?""no...

"I love it" 
Olivia gets up and hugs me and father "your the most wonderful family in the whole world"
Just then the door starts to rattles as some try's to brake open the door "who's that?" Olivia asks 
"father were you expecting anyone tonight?"
"no" me shakes his head, "quickly my dears, stay in here and don't come out" he says putting us in the cupboard, its a little tight for me but I manage to fit holding Olivia in my lap. We here the window break, Olivia and I peek through the door and watch as a bat try's to take father, but the table gets pushed and closes the door, all Olivia and I can do is sit and listen. I grab her and hug her to my chest "gotcha toy maker" the voice says and laughs 
"Olivia! Abigail!" father yells, then nothing. I keep hold onto her for a few more minutes to make sure its safe, once I'm sure it is we push the door open and see the store in shambles, paint everywhere. We get out and look around "Abby, what do we do now?" Olivia says snuffing  
I pick her up and hug her "shhh its okay little one, we'll figure something out" I look at her and kiss her nose "I promise" I set her down and notice a news paper clipping "that's it" I yell and run over to where our coats are "come on Olivia, if any one can help us its that detective on baker street" she smiles 
"you really think he will help?" she asks as I put her coat and scarf on her
"I don't see why not" I hand her, her hat and get my clothing on "lets go" I say taking her hand.
