The Missing Pages of Time

Chapter 7

Flash! Bang! «and a bright light streaked into the exhausted librarian¶s eyes.

³Oh no, where are we now?´.

Hans the chauffeur gave her a look ushering her out of the machine. She anxiously observed the ginormous palace in front of her.

³Surely there are no surprises here«´ she told herself.

Picking up the creased and torn pages, Mitch and Miss Bubbly jumped out of the confined space of the time machine. The rough, shining edges of the palace was touched with gleaming chunks of gold lighting up the hallway. A small, elderly-looking lady shuffled along the hall ahead of them, her head held high and proud.

µ¶She must be the Queen¶¶ Miss Bubbly quietly whispered to herself. She

was in Buckingham Palace!

She sneakily makes her way through the back entrance of the palace with Mitch. These weird people with big bearskin hats and fully uniformed with red all over them and a scaring weapon in his right hand were guarding the back door. How was she going to get in and find the second last piece of paper? This place was nearly as big as one country. Well in her opinion it was. She had to do something to get in! Miss Bubbly searched her pockets for any materials in which would help her in order to enter the palace. She found a mechanical spider in her left pocked and its remote in her right pocket. She turned it on and navigated it to the guard which was blocking her way. The guard completely had a panic attack and ran away! In a fast walking motion she quickly enters the palace and sneaks her way to the nearest room. Accidentally the room she had walked into was the conference room. There were 20 odd people staring at her rudely. One spoke in French to her but she quickly replied with µoui¶ though she wasn¶t quiet sure what she was asked. Just as quickly as they asked, they returned back to the conference and she ran out of the room as quickly as she could. The librarian made her way up the stairs and tried to search every room for the a small A4 piece of ripped paper with black printed words. Mitch followed her after checking the second floor. Suddenly shouting occurred from the first level. It sounded like they were looking for an intruder.
