Part 4
When Charlie and Elizabeth got to Charlie's home, Elizabeth told him her story. She didn't tell him her real name though. Charlie found out that she was from the distant past. She had never seen a carriage before.
"So what's in your pocket?" Asked Charlie.
I've told you it's nothing." Said Elizabeth.
Elizabeth spent the night on Charlie's couch. In the morning before Charlie was up, Elizabeth ran away from the house and was caught by the police. This time the police took her to the police station and questioned her.
"Do you know this girl?" One of them asked.
The girl was in dirt and filthy rags. It was Elizabeth.
"No, I don't," Elizabeth said for she didn't recognize herself.
At that moment a policeman saw something shiny in her jeans for she had ripped them when she was running away.
"What's that shiny thing in your pocket?" The policeman asked.
At that point the diamond necklace fell out of Elizabeth's pocket all together.
Elizabeth picked it up.
"Where did you get that necklace?" Asked one of the policemen.
Elizabeth couldn't explain where she got the necklace. The policemen assumed she stole it and asked her to hand it over. As she was about to give it to them she went back to after she had stolen the diamond necklace.

You keep me waiting for next chapter, Jen. It becomes very interesting!
ReplyDeleteReally interesting Jen. You've got me thinking about carriages and why she had never seen one. I guess because she was from the distant past before there were carriages? And she must have had an out of body experience when asked to recognize herself. Don't quite understand that part. But you've sure got the reader's attention. Can't wait to find out what happens next! Good work, Dad
