"You wanna try some of the candy?" Matt said to his girlfriend. Jenna smiled at the suggestion,her previous talk with the man faded away in her mind. The couple paced over to candy section of the land ignoring the fruits all around them. They gaped at the selection of confectioneries all around them.
"Hey what's that overthere?" Matt questioned. Jenna followed the man as he led them farther into the candy flora.
"What did you see?" Jenna asked.
"It looked like something glowed behind all this stuff. It was like it was metal or something." Matt walked farther inwards and Jenna soon noticed how every plant seemed to grow larger the farther they traveled. The candy though got more exotic in appearance, though not to the point of being alien.White chocolate bars and mint chocolate candy canes were just some of the new sweets that were revealed.
"Matt, I don't think we should be here."
"Why would they not cut this area off if they didn't want anyone to see it?" Matt answered. Soon though the duo came to a large clearing, a brief shadow passed by the pairs eyes, but their view was quickly filled by the area in front of them. A large house, which seemed to be made of gingerbread, was built with a small pavilion in front of it. A decorated fountain was the epicenter of this clearing. Tables, though untended,were scattered around randomly. One chair and table was filled however, with a young woman drinking from a teacup.
"Hello?" Jenna hesitantly introduced herself. The woman looked up from her cup and smiled, she placed it onto the table to greet the pair.
"Ah you must be some of the contestants, I'm Alana, pleased to meet you." Alana dusted herself off to give the pair an open handshake. She was dressed in a modest pair of workshorts and a sun-flower shirt;Matt noted her seemingly curveless body compared to Elena,though didn't choose to vocalize that point.
"What's this place?" Jenna said. She sat down onto a chair, while Matt stood looking at the working woman.
"This is The Cabinet,though management has some gobbley-gook name for it. Its where we display our really sweet stuff, things that are not planted in the candy forest." Alana explained.
"So is that where the candy for the factory is made?" Matt asked.
"Oh no, that's down the chocolate river, hopefully you'll see it during the tour. No, here is the place where our perfected goods are displayed." Alana took a sip of her tea. "You can knock on the door if you'd like, Denise will gladly show you what we have in stock at the moment."
"Noted." Jenna spoke. "But why change it out though? Who eats the candy or whatever else you have in there?"
"Us workers and the little gals. Ahh you don't need to worry about the little gals though, they won't bother you on the tour." Alana said nonchalantly. "Oh if you'd like, we can have a small lunch together, I can phone in Elena to tell her where you two are at."
Jenna and Matt shared a look, both pondered on what to do next.
