Dear Diary
Finally, I am here. Back in the dark, cold streets of London to retrieve my long awaited revenge. Oh, when i find him... when I find that old rat, Judge Turpin, he won't even see it coming. I have changed so much in the past twenty six years. prison has changed me. He will not recognise me. Young Benjamin Barker has come back to his hometown a new, bloodthirsty man craving the lost feeling of mans neck under my razor. For I am a new, reborn barber come to reopen my Salon in the hope that he will walk in for a shave. That day is when I can rest, the closest shave I will ever give.
He robbed me, not literally, but of my life.
It was just me, Lucy and our beautiful baby girl, Johanna. We were out in the community market picking out a soft toy for our new girl, when I got the feeling something was wrong. Like someone was watching. Without warning, Judge Turpin, the man who had liked Lucy for as long as I knew had sent his guards to get me and take me to a court case. I had done nothing wrong and I knew I had done nothing wrong. Yet Turpin, being the crafty villain he was found a way to have me locked away for twenty six years.
I still ponder and remember that day at the market. While I was snatched, Lucy's face instantly turned sad and distressed while Johanna cried loudly in Lucy's arms. The last thing I saw before I lost sight of her was Judge Turpin leading her off by himself, saying things I couldn't hear because I was screaming 'LUCY!' So loud.

Once I was in London I had no idea where to go from the dock. Luckily, a young boy around nineteen with long brown hair gave me to directions to Town centre and walked with me for a while as he was going the same way. At town centre, I knew where to go so thanked him.
"Thank you, Anthony."
"Yes, of course- Ah, I never got your name."
I thought for a couple of seconds and was about to introduce myself as Benjamin Barker, my birth name, but thought better of it, as I couldn't let the word get around to the wrong people that I had returned.
"Ah, Sweeney Todd. Sweeney Todd of Fleet Street. Proud owner of 7 Fleet Street Barber. Come for a shave some time."
With a handshake, we parted our seperate ways.

I walked down the dead silent street looking left and right, waiting to find my old, abandoned shop. It was cold and wet, with puddles filling the roads small imperfections. Water trickled down gutters and signs creaked in the slight breeze.
1, 3, 5,
And there she was. 7 Fleet Street, Mrs Lovetts pie shop, and up the steps outside was my old barber.
I entered the small pie shop, no customers
