Too Much Chocolate, Part one, 0:00:41.080 --> 0:00:43.320 The story you're about to enjoy was inspired by Eliza. 0:00:43.560 --> 0:00:47.279 Thank you so much for your amazing idea. If there 0:00:47.320 --> 0:00:49.959 was one thing that Ivy loved to eat, it was chocolate, 0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:53.680 and not just one type of chocolate, all types of chocolate, 0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:57.600 chocolate bars, chocolate lollipops, chocolate covered gummy bears, and even 0:00:57.680 --> 0:01:02.400 chocolate shaped like animals, cars, and even buzz As long 0:01:02.440 --> 0:01:04.920 as it was chocolate, it was for her. But it 0:01:04.959 --> 0:01:07.839 was getting to be a bit of a problem. Ivy 0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:10.120 had always liked chocolate, but she had never craved it 0:01:10.160 --> 0:01:13.840 before until last Halloween, when an epic candy hall had 0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:16.600 her looking for the sweet treat all day every day. 0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:20.320 So on one particular day, after her second visit to 0:01:20.360 --> 0:01:22.440 the dentist in two weeks to have a cavity filled, 0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:24.479 her parents decided it was time to put a stop 0:01:24.520 --> 0:01:27.560 to Ivy's chocolate chaos. They also needed to keep a 0:01:27.560 --> 0:01:29.319 better eye on her tooth brushing, but that was a 0:01:29.319 --> 0:01:33.119 different story. Ivy, your mom and I need to talk 0:01:33.160 --> 0:01:34.960 to you, said Ivy's dad when they got home from 0:01:34.959 --> 0:01:38.720 the dentist. YEP, hold on one minute, I'm just looking 0:01:38.760 --> 0:01:41.119 for a snack, called Ivy. She rummaged through the cupboards 0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:44.280 in the kitchen. Getting that cavity filled made me hungry. 0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:47.200 As Ivy searched through the shelf after shelf, her parents 0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:49.760 decided to meet her in the kitchen. Do you know 0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:53.600 where my chocolate bucket is? Asked Ivy? And if you 0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:55.600 don't have a chocolate bucket at home, it's exactly what 0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:58.240 it sounds like, a bucket filled with every different type 0:01:58.280 --> 0:02:00.760 of chocolate you can think of. Her parents, trying to 0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:02.960 be nice after Halloween, let Ivy have a little piece 0:02:02.960 --> 0:02:05.360 of chocolate each day. They didn't think much of it 0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:07.440 because Ivy had never been that big of a fan 0:02:07.520 --> 0:02:10.919 of chocolate. But as days turned into weeks, Ivy started 0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:14.280 sneaking chocolate all throughout the day. It became her favorite 0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:16.520 food and no one could stop her from devouring the 0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:19.880 sweet treat. Then, before her parents knew it, they had 0:02:19.880 --> 0:02:23.640 created a chocolate monster, which was pretty fitting since it 0:02:23.680 --> 0:02:27.720 all started with Halloween candy. Ivy, you can stop looking 0:02:27.760 --> 0:02:30.560 for your chocolate basket, said Ivy's mom, knowing very well 0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:32.680 what Ivy's reaction would be when she told her where 0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:36.800 her tasty chocolate snacks went. Yes, Ivy, you can stop 0:02:36.840 --> 0:02:39.639 looking because your chocolate isn't in there, began her dad, 0:02:39.680 --> 0:02:44.160 looking a bit nervous. We threw it out. Ivy stopped 0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:46.320 her search and slowly turned around to face her parents. 0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:51.040 I'm sorry, I don't think I heard you correctly, Ivy said, 0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:54.360 with the four S giggle. It sounded like you threw 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:56.840 out my chocolate. And since you know how much I 0:02:56.880 --> 0:03:00.200 love chocolate, you wouldn't do that. You wouldn't do that 0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:04.320 because it would make me so so so sad, and 0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:07.080 I know you don't want me to be sad, right, 0:03:09.280 --> 0:03:11.400 The look on Ivy's face turned into a worried frown 0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:13.639 as she realized that her parents were telling her the truth. 0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:18.760 Oh no, oh no, why would you throw out my chocolate? 0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:20.959 Exclaimed Ivy as you plopped down in one of the 0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:26.320 kitchen chairs. Am I being punished for something? No, Ivy, 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:29.600 you didn't do anything wrong. Well, not exactly, said her mom, 0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:32.399 sitting down next to her at the kitchen table. We did, 0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:36.320 She's right, Ivy. We let you have chocolate every day, 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:39.360 and that started a bad habit, her dad explained. You 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:41.960 started out having one little piece a day, then it 0:03:42.000 --> 0:03:45.120 was two pieces, then more and more and more. We 0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.120 should have stopped you a while ago. I mean, you 0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:49.200 just got home from getting a cavity fils because of 0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:51.760 all the chocolate you're eating, and the first thing you 0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:55.240 did was look for more chocolate. Eating too much chocolate 0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:58.200 isn't good for you, added Ivy's mom. It can make 0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:00.520 you cranky, give you cavities, and make it hard for 0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.200 you to sleep because of all the sugar. We're sorry, 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:04.960 but right now we think it's best for you to 0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:07.600 lay off the chocolate for a bit. A piece here 0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:10.520 and there is totally fine. I mean, I love chocolate too, 0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:13.160 but eating it every day just isn't great for you, 0:04:13.520 --> 0:04:17.560 said Ivy's dad. Ivy was so shocked that she couldn't 0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:19.599 even think of what to say. She just sat there 0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:21.600 thinking of her favorite chocolates and how much she was 0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:24.919 going to miss them. Ivy, we need you to say something, 0:04:25.120 --> 0:04:27.440 said her mom. You're not being punished. You can have 0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:30.520 chocolate again, just not right now. There has to be 0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:33.039 something else you can eat, suggested her dad as he 0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:36.080 got up and opened the fridge. How about some grape 0:04:36.240 --> 0:04:39.640 or string cheese. You used to love those snacks, or 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:44.279 some gram crackers or pretzels, added Ivey's mom. No, thank you, 0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:46.880 said Ivy in a sad voice as she stood up. 0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:50.560 I'm not hungry all of the sudden. I know I 0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:52.320 was eating too much chocolate, and I know you're just 0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:54.080 trying to do what's best for me, but I'm going 0:04:54.160 --> 0:04:57.240 to need a minute to think all this over. Ivy's 0:04:57.279 --> 0:04:59.040 parents were happy with the way their daughter was handling 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:01.359 the new chocolate shortage, and they decided it would be 0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:02.719 best to let her try and work through it on 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.320 her own. To start out, we're here if you need 0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:10.080 any snack suggestions, said Ivy's mom with a little smile. Okay, 0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:13.080 thank you, said Ivy in a soft voice as she 0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:15.279 walked into the living room where Levi had been listening 0:05:15.279 --> 0:05:21.320 to her conversation with her parents. I heard the whole thing, 0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:23.440 he said, as Ivy sat down next to him on 0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:26.600 the couch. Sorry about that, but maybe I can make 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:29.120 you something tasty to eat. Do you want to try 0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:34.320 my latest combination pickles and raisins. Sounds strange, but oddly enough, 0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:38.040 it works, Levi. I definitely had what Ivy would politely 0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:41.400 call a unique diet. When she wasn't being polite, she 0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:45.280 would say, he eats some really weird food. No thanks, 0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:47.599 I think I'm going to go for a walk, said Ivy. 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:49.680 So she told her parents she'd be back in a 0:05:49.680 --> 0:05:52.080 bit and headed out to think about her world without chocolate. 0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:54.760 As Ivy walked, she kind of lost track of where 0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:57.280 she was. The only thing swirling around in her were 0:05:57.279 --> 0:05:59.640 thoughts of chocolate, and before she knew it, she was 0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:02.320 standing in front of a store, a store she had 0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:08.159 been many times before. It was Charlotte's Chocolate Shop. Ivy 0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:11.000 have never been happier or sadder to see the little 0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:13.680 shop Before she pressed her nose up against the window 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:16.320 and stared inside at every kind of chocolate you could imagine. 0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:19.320 As Ivy looked inside the little shop, she thought about 0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:23.160 one thing. I'm sure mom and Dad wouldn't be upset 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:26.719 if I had just one little, teeny teeny tiny nibble 0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:31.080 of chocolate, right, Ivy thought to herself. After all, they 0:06:31.080 --> 0:06:33.839 did take all my chocolate, which means I'm going to 0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:36.760 be having way less than I normally would, So surely 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:40.120 having one little taste right now would be fine. The 0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:42.239 more Ivy stared at the chocolate inside the little shop, 0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:45.360 the more she'd believed what she was saying. Then before 0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:47.080 she knew it, she was reaching for the door handle 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:51.200 and walking inside. However, Charlotte, who owned the chocolate shop, 0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:53.640 was nowhere to be found. Ivy even called out to 0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:55.120 her to see if she was in the back, but 0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:58.080 no one answered. Knowing that she couldn't just take a 0:06:58.080 --> 0:07:00.159 piece of chocolate without paying for it, she frowned and 0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:03.359 turned to walk out. That's when she saw a small 0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:06.479 silver tray sitting on a table by the door. The 0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:08.919 tray was piled high with pieces of chocolate and a 0:07:08.960 --> 0:07:12.880 tiny sign that said free samples. Take one Ivy didn't 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:14.800 even give it a second thought as she grabbed a 0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:17.760 piece of chocolate. As she nibbled the sweet treat, enjoying 0:07:17.840 --> 0:07:19.920 every little bit of it, Charlotte walked out from the 0:07:19.920 --> 0:07:24.440 back room. Hi, Ivy, how long have you been here? Sorry? 0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:26.360 I didn't come out before. I was working on a 0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:28.960 new chocolate creation in the back. I guess I was 0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:30.960 so focused on it. I didn't hear you come in, 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:34.040 said Charlotte, standing in front of Ivy and an apron 0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:37.440 covered in melted chocolate. No problem, I haven't been here 0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:40.080 long and I can't stay, said Ivy, finishing the last 0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:42.720 little bit of her free sample. I just came in 0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:48.000 to say goodbye to me. Are you moving or something? 0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:52.360 Asked Charlotte, standing a bit surprised. No, I'm here to 0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:56.200 say goodbye to chocolate, answered Ivy. My mom and dad 0:07:56.240 --> 0:07:58.080 said I've been eating too much of it, and they 0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:01.920 took all the chocolate I had in the house. Wow, 0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:05.360 that's really sad news, not just for you, but for 0:08:05.440 --> 0:08:08.760 me too. Lately, you've been one of my best customers, 0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:11.440 said Charlotte with a giggle. But seriously, if you're gonna 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:14.200 stop being chocolate, at least make your last chocolate. He 0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:17.920 treat something really special, and before Ivy could say that 0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:19.920 she had already had a free sample and that was 0:08:19.920 --> 0:08:21.520 going to be here last bite of chocolate for a 0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:24.200 long while, Charlotte disappeared into the back room. In a 0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:26.480 few seconds, she rushed back out holding a napkin with 0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:30.000 a small square of chocolate resting on it. This is 0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:32.800 the new chocolate I've been working on, and there's no 0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:35.000 one I can think of that will appreciate it as 0:08:35.080 --> 0:08:37.520 much as you, said Charlotte, handing a square of chocolate 0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:40.560 to Ivy. Ivy quickly thought about her parents and what 0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:42.520 they would say, but she also thought it would be 0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:46.080 rude to refuse the tasty treat, after all, Charlotte had 0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:48.560 worked so hard on it, so not wanting to make 0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:51.000 Charlotte sad, Ivy took the chocolate and popped it in 0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:54.040 her mouth. She let it melt on her tongue, enjoying 0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:57.440 every little flavor, and it was the best chocolate she 0:08:57.440 --> 0:09:01.079 had ever had in her whole life. She told Charlotte 0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:03.320 how great it was and said some days she'd be 0:09:03.360 --> 0:09:05.640 back to have another piece, but for now she had 0:09:05.679 --> 0:09:08.920 to be heading home. Charlotte told her The secret to 0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:11.960 the chocolate was a very old, possibly magical recipe that 0:09:12.000 --> 0:09:15.720 she used. Just my luck, the day I stop eating 0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:17.840 chocolate is the day you figure out how to make 0:09:17.880 --> 0:09:20.640 it magic, giggled Ivy as she waved goodbye to Charlotte 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:23.480 and walked out of the shop. Charlotte giggle too, but 0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:26.360 in the back of her mind she thought, what if, 0:09:27.400 --> 0:09:30.280 just what if that chocolate is a little magic. I 0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:33.360 guess we'll have to wait and see. As Ivy walked home, 0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:36.160 Charlotte went back to making chocolate. Little did she know 0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:38.520 that Ivy would be back a lot sooner than she thought, 0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:41.480 and she'd have something pretty amazing to tell her. It 0:09:41.559 --> 0:09:43.520 didn't take Ivy long to get home, and when she arrived, 0:09:43.559 --> 0:09:45.440 her mom opened the door for her, holding a big 0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:51.000 plate of oatmeal cookies. Hungry now, she asked, holding up 0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:52.640 the plate of cookies, which just so happened to be 0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:56.280 one of Ivy's favorites. I'm all set, mom, but thank you, 0:09:56.640 --> 0:09:59.520 answered Ivy. Her mom asked her about her walk, trying 0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:01.160 to get a little smile out of her daughter, but 0:10:01.200 --> 0:10:03.600 Ivy just said she was fine and walked upstairs to 0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:07.200 her room. Once inside, Ivy pushed her door shut with 0:10:07.240 --> 0:10:09.680 her foot and flopped on her bed, and that's when 0:10:09.720 --> 0:10:12.800 it happened. She was still thinking about chocolate, so she 0:10:12.880 --> 0:10:15.640 decided to distract herself with some drawing. But when she 0:10:15.679 --> 0:10:19.319 picked up her favorite marker, something unusual and delicious happened. 0:10:19.840 --> 0:10:23.680 The marker turned to chocolate, completely chocolate, right before her eyes. 0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:27.360 Ivy couldn't believe what she was seeing. She assumed that 0:10:27.400 --> 0:10:29.320 she was just so focused on chocolate at the moment 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:32.000 that her eyes were playing tricks on her. She picked 0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:35.080 up another marker, and another, and one after the other. 0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:38.120 They all turned to chocolate. She touched her notebook, a 0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:40.960 cept anam on her bed, and her soccer ball chocolate. 0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:44.760 Chocolate chocolate. Now what would you do if everything you 0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:47.439 touched her into chocolate? You maybe tended to take a 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:50.920 little nibble to see what a chocolate notebook tasted like. Well, 0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:56.000 that's exactly what Ivy did, and it tasted amazing. Not 0:10:56.160 --> 0:10:58.760 knowing how long this newfound magic power would last, Ivy 0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:02.520 began grabbing everything she could. Shirts, necklaces, building blocks, and 0:11:02.559 --> 0:11:05.920 even her alarm clock were all now one hundred percent chocolate. 0:11:06.559 --> 0:11:09.640 Ivy continued turning her world and everything in it into chocolate, 0:11:10.080 --> 0:11:12.439 thinking the whole time that this was the most amazing 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:14.880 thing that had ever happened to her, And of course, 0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:17.400 as she turned things into chocolate, she just had to 0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:20.040 take a little nibble from each. Really enjoying her new 0:11:20.120 --> 0:11:27.839 found magical powers, Ivy spent quite a bit of time 0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:29.880 in her room, eating more chocolate than she had ever 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:32.760 eaten before. But after an hour or so had passed, 0:11:32.800 --> 0:11:34.800 Ivy's mom knocked on the door, wanting to check in 0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:38.400 and see how Ivy was doing. Ivy, Honey, open up. 0:11:38.520 --> 0:11:40.720 I have some carrots and ranch dressing for you, said 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:43.319 her mom. I know it's not chocolate, but you do 0:11:43.400 --> 0:11:46.360 need to eat a little something. Ivey called out to 0:11:46.400 --> 0:11:48.240 her mom to give her one second as she tried 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:49.959 to figure out a way to open her bedroom door 0:11:50.000 --> 0:11:53.200 without touching it and turn it into chocolate. Ivey felt 0:11:53.200 --> 0:11:55.240 like she wanted to keep her magical powers to herself 0:11:55.240 --> 0:11:58.520 for just a little bit longer. She told her mom 0:11:58.520 --> 0:12:00.680 she wasn't hungry for carrots right then, and she'd go 0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:04.040 downstairs soon and make herself something to eat. Ivy's mom 0:12:04.080 --> 0:12:06.040 told her she was leaving the carrots outside her door 0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:08.800 and hoped she would eat them. At that point, after 0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:10.880 thinking about it for a second, Ivy had been eating 0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:13.319 so much chocolate that the thought of carrots dipped in 0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:17.040 ranch did actually sound pretty good. When she knew her 0:12:17.080 --> 0:12:19.280 mom had gone downstairs, Ivy grabbed a shirt to wrap 0:12:19.320 --> 0:12:21.480 around her hand so she didn't touch her doorknob directly 0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:23.800 and turn it into chocolate. But of course the shirt 0:12:23.840 --> 0:12:27.800 she touched turned to chocolate. So now with the solid 0:12:27.880 --> 0:12:30.000 chocolate shirt, she tried her best to open the door. 0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:33.480 It took a while, but she did it. After making 0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:35.319 sure no one was in the hallway, Ivy dragged the 0:12:35.360 --> 0:12:37.559 plate of carrots and ranch into her room with the shirt. 0:12:38.760 --> 0:12:41.040 I know I can't pick up the carrots, thought Ivy, 0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:44.120 so I'll just grab them with my teeth. But as 0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:46.000 Ivy leaned down, she put her hands on the floor 0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:50.600 to steady herself and bam, chocolate floor. Oh no, called 0:12:50.600 --> 0:12:53.199 out Ivy, loud enough for Levi to hear, and before 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:55.120 she could tell him to not come in, Levi opened 0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:57.480 her bedroom door, took one step on the chocolate floor, 0:12:57.520 --> 0:13:01.120 and slid into Ivy's room. I Wanting Levi to get hurt, 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:03.240 Ivy quickly put her hands to stop him. And can 0:13:03.280 --> 0:13:09.360 you guess what happened next? Levi no, whispered Ivy, not 0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:12.200 wanting her parents to hear. She held out her hands 0:13:12.240 --> 0:13:14.560 to stop her brother from falling, but thankfully pulled them 0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:18.160 away just in time to stop herself from touching Levi, however, 0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:20.920 not fast enough to stop herself from touching his shirt, 0:13:21.920 --> 0:13:23.840 which she now had to explain to her brother why 0:13:23.880 --> 0:13:26.680 almost everything in her room, including his shirt, was made 0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:30.440 of chocolate. What's going on? What did you do to 0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:33.800 my shirt? And most importantly, can I eat a little 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:36.319 bit of it? Asked Levi I, trying to make sense 0:13:36.360 --> 0:13:39.320 of everything that was going on in Ivy's room. Levi, 0:13:39.480 --> 0:13:42.199 We don't have time for chocolate snacks right now, Ivy said, 0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:44.360 as she went on to explain. When I went for 0:13:44.440 --> 0:13:46.520 my walk, I ended up at the chocolate shop, Charlotte 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:48.280 gave me some new chocolate she had just made, and 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:50.000 after I ate it, she said it was a special 0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:55.680 recipe and the chocolate maybe magic. Maybe magic. I think 0:13:55.800 --> 0:13:59.200 you can safely say it's magic for sure, said Levi 0:13:59.280 --> 0:14:02.000 with a giggle, trying nibble of sleeve on his shirt. 0:14:02.520 --> 0:14:03.880 You have to help me get out of the house 0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:06.800 and back to the chocolate shop, said Ivy. I have 0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:09.160 to get to Charlotte to help me. Hopefully she can. 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:13.000 It makes my magic power and all this chocolate go away. Maeve. 0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:16.839 I could have not been more surprised. Wow, Ivy, I 0:14:16.880 --> 0:14:18.800 never thought i'd hear you say you wanted to get 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:21.760 rid of chocolate, said Levi. But I get it. It 0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:24.040 would be impossible to keep your magic power a secret 0:14:24.080 --> 0:14:26.360 for much longer with everything you touched turning into rich, 0:14:26.400 --> 0:14:30.400 sweet chocolate chocolate. Levi' stopped thinking about chocolate and let's go, 0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:34.760 said Ivy. Okay, but you have to cover your hands, 0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:37.840 said Levi. We can't have you randomly touching things. As 0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:40.640 we leave the house, Mom and dad may see. Then 0:14:40.640 --> 0:14:44.000 they'll find out that you've been sneaking chocolate, magical chocolate, 0:14:44.080 --> 0:14:47.760 no less all morning. But anything that touches my hands 0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:51.240 will turn to chocolate, Levi. I've you reminded her brother. Okay, 0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:54.720 then just be extra careful, said Levi, who ran to 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:58.560 his room to change his shirt. Once you got back, 0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:00.560 Levi and Ivy made their way down in the hallway, 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:03.120 down the stairs, and through the living room, with Ivy 0:15:03.120 --> 0:15:05.080 trying as hard as she could to not touch anything, 0:15:05.520 --> 0:15:07.080 and just when they thought they were in the clear, 0:15:07.160 --> 0:15:08.920 Levi opened the front door for them to leave and 0:15:08.920 --> 0:15:12.360 found his dad standing right there on the porch. Hi 0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:16.200 you too, he said. Oh Hi, Dad, said Ivy, putting 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:18.320 her hands behind her back, careful not to touch her shirt. 0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:21.960 I'm proud of you, Ivy said her dad. You've been 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:24.480 doing a great job not eating chocolate today. I've at 0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:26.360 once you start doing some other things to take your 0:15:26.400 --> 0:15:28.920 mind off it, that you won't even think about chocolate 0:15:29.040 --> 0:15:35.320 one time. Uh sure, dad, definitely, said Ivy, trying to 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:39.080 end the conversation as quickly as possible. Here, how about 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:40.960 trying one of these I just bought them at the 0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:43.440 orchard down the road, asked IV's dad as he tossed 0:15:43.440 --> 0:15:46.800 his daughter a red, shiny apple. Ivy watched as the 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:48.880 apple spun through the air to her in slow motion, 0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:51.600 but before it fell into her hand, her dad turned 0:15:51.600 --> 0:15:54.000 away to walk into the garage. Ivy caught the apple 0:15:54.080 --> 0:15:57.880 and instantly it turned into solid chocolate. She then tossed 0:15:57.880 --> 0:15:59.960 the chocolate apple to Levi, who quickly hit it back 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:02.080 inside the house on the table by the front door. 0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:04.880 Once that apple was out of sight, Levi and Ivy 0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:06.960 ran to the chocolate shop as fast as they could. 0:16:08.120 --> 0:16:10.880 Once they got there, Ivy, forgetting her magic power, grabbed 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:13.920 the door handle, turning the whole door into chocolate. This 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:16.560 happened right in front of Charlotte, who was restocking chocolate 0:16:16.600 --> 0:16:20.720 lollipops in the back of the stoor. Oh no, said 0:16:20.800 --> 0:16:23.480 Charlotte as she waved Levine Ivy into the shop. Oh no, 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:27.680 oh no, I know, said Ivy, and I need your help. 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:30.120 Your magic chocolate was fun at first, but now I 0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:31.560 just want to be able to pick up an apple 0:16:31.680 --> 0:16:34.080 or hug my teddy bear without turning them into chocolate. 0:16:35.960 --> 0:16:38.800 Like I told you, I had a feeling this would happen, 0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:41.920 fortunately for you and your teddy Bear. I know how 0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:46.080 to reverse it, Charlotte said, But I don't know that 0:16:46.120 --> 0:16:49.240 you're gonna like it. Whatever it is, I am ready. 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:51.800 I can't look at chocolate for one more minute, said Ivy. 0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:55.600 Just tell me what to do. You have to eat something, 0:16:56.040 --> 0:17:00.040 said Charlotte as she walked into the back room. Oh no, 0:17:00.160 --> 0:17:05.720 not more chocolate side, Ivy. I don't think I can. Nope, 0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:10.200 not chocolate, answered Charlotte, but rather the most unlike chocolate 0:17:10.200 --> 0:17:13.000 food you can think of you have to eat broccoli, 0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:16.600 and not just a little piece, but a whole head 0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:22.520 of broccoli. Sorry, Ivy ouch, no fun, Ivy said Lee 0:17:22.560 --> 0:17:24.360 by making a face at the thought of eating all 0:17:24.440 --> 0:17:28.439 that broccoli. Charlotte went back into the room and quickly 0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:32.920 returned holding a huge plate of cut up broccoli. You 0:17:32.960 --> 0:17:35.520 just happen to have a whole head of broccoli cut 0:17:35.560 --> 0:17:39.800 up in the back already, I've asked, Like I said, 0:17:40.000 --> 0:17:43.480 I had a feeling this would happen, answered Charlotte. Ivy 0:17:43.480 --> 0:17:45.240 stared at the big pile of green on her plate 0:17:45.240 --> 0:17:47.000 in front of her. She had never seen so much 0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:50.359 broccoli in her whole life. And you're sure if I 0:17:50.440 --> 0:17:54.199 eat this, the magic power will go away, Ivy asked Charlotte. 0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:56.040 And I won't all of a sudden start turning things 0:17:56.080 --> 0:18:03.560 into broccoli, right. I guess we'll see, said Charlotte. But 0:18:03.720 --> 0:18:06.720 this is just regular old broccoli from the store down 0:18:06.720 --> 0:18:09.040 the street, so I'm thinking the chances of you getting 0:18:09.040 --> 0:18:12.960 broccoli magic powers is pretty low. Ivy looked over at Levi, 0:18:13.000 --> 0:18:15.879 who stood right behind her, to cheer her on. Then, 0:18:15.920 --> 0:18:17.800 on the count of three, Ivy started to eat piece 0:18:17.880 --> 0:18:21.679 after piece of broccoli, until everyone was gone. It was 0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:24.439 actually pretty good, said Ivy, finishing her last piece of 0:18:24.440 --> 0:18:27.480 broccoli after eating all that chocolate. It's nice to eat 0:18:27.520 --> 0:18:30.600 something that's fresh and green, but I definitely think I've 0:18:30.640 --> 0:18:34.040 had my Phillip broccoli for the year. Charlotte and Levi 0:18:34.160 --> 0:18:36.199 both laughed, but they also knew that they had to 0:18:36.200 --> 0:18:40.200 see if the broccoli worked. I still feel the same, 0:18:40.440 --> 0:18:43.720 said Ivy. Do you think the magic chocolate power went away? 0:18:44.960 --> 0:18:47.760 Charlotte shrugged her shoulders and said, there's only one way 0:18:47.800 --> 0:18:50.840 to find out, since most everything my shop is chocolate. Anyway, 0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:52.800 let me get you a bowl or something from the 0:18:52.840 --> 0:18:55.920 back room and you can try touching. That sounds good, 0:18:56.359 --> 0:18:58.399 said Ivy. She stared at her hands, wondering if they 0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:02.040 were still filled with magic. Levi, on the other hand, 0:19:02.040 --> 0:19:04.000 had been staring at all the chocolate in the store 0:19:04.040 --> 0:19:06.920 the whole time Ivy was eating her broccoli. Since he 0:19:06.960 --> 0:19:09.280 had only taken a nibble of his chocolate shirt at home, 0:19:09.560 --> 0:19:14.359 he still had quite a big appetite for the sweet stuff. Levi, 0:19:14.520 --> 0:19:17.800 you look like you're starving, gild Ivy. Why don't you 0:19:17.840 --> 0:19:20.680 take one of the free samples by the door. Good 0:19:20.720 --> 0:19:23.040 idea Levi said as he walked over to grab a 0:19:23.040 --> 0:19:27.480 piece of chocolate. But if you remember, Ivy had accidentally 0:19:27.520 --> 0:19:30.560 turned the front door into chocolate, and with everything else 0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:32.680 going on, Levi and Ivy didn't notice that the door 0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:36.360 was melting all over the chocolate shop floor. As Levi 0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:38.960 was walking by, he slipped on the oohiguey chocolate and 0:19:39.000 --> 0:19:43.800 fell forward, right toward his sister, just like before. Ivy's 0:19:43.800 --> 0:19:45.640 first instinct was to put up her hands and stop 0:19:45.720 --> 0:19:48.479 Levi from falling. But would this mean Levi was going 0:19:48.520 --> 0:19:52.400 to turn into chocolate. There was no time to stop 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:54.280 it from happening, and before Ivy knew it, she was 0:19:54.280 --> 0:19:57.639 holding Levi by his shoulders. He twisted away from her quickly, 0:19:57.680 --> 0:19:59.600 not knowing if he was seconds away from becoming a 0:19:59.680 --> 0:20:03.520 chocolate Levi's statue. As he turned away from Ivy, Levi 0:20:03.640 --> 0:20:05.960 slipped again on the candy covered floor, falling into a 0:20:05.960 --> 0:20:10.320 big puddle of chocolate. Levi called that Ivy, Levi, are 0:20:10.320 --> 0:20:14.040 you okay? Hearing all the commotions, Charlotte ran out from 0:20:14.040 --> 0:20:15.960 the back room in time to see Ivy standing in 0:20:15.960 --> 0:20:18.360 the middle of the melted chocolate with a very nervous 0:20:18.400 --> 0:20:21.479
