Ignoring the noise of the zombie  thing, Polly frantically searched for the door. In its place stood a small pool. There  were many reeds next to and it looked like there was a door at the bottom of the pool and on either side of this crimson door 2 palm trees were placed.

Immediately, Polly realised what to do. She could complete the task in only 1 dive. She ran back, faced the pool and sprinted towards it. As soon as her toes touched the edge, she dived. Leaping into the water, Polly went as deep as possible and touched the door…

Tugging at the handle, she tried and tried. Polly needed to breathe but she knew she couldn’t. Her eyes started to close. She had to keep going. Polly forced them open and it opened at last.She tumbled through. Water drained into the Emporium, yet the corridor was as dry as a bone, and so was she.

Silently, she walked back, wandering through passageways and went back towards the shop front. Mr Mine stared at her ”you’re back. Find what you wanted?” Polly shook her head sadly.

”what happens is, even if you write it in my book, you can’t undo the past.” He put his goblet down on the nearby table and smiled at her.

”come again anytime,you’re always welcome! Oh and The Sacrificed Emporium is named that because when people enter, they sacrifice their imagination. Everyone except you.”

Polly stepped out of the vintage shop, walked halfway down the street and then realised that she didn’t buy her Grandmother a birthday present so she turned around but it was gone. The Sacrificed Emporium was gone.

As she walked home to Seaside Road,m she didn’t that a diamond encrusted pen had sprouted legs and was following her. When she arrived, Polly opened the red gate and saw the pen. She put it in her pocket and entered her home.
