The Six Golden Tickets

Chapter 3: The Second Winner

Morning came fast. It was 11:00 AM and Willy's alarm clock had gone off. This alarm clock played the Willy Wonka song.

Willy reached over to the alarm clock on the night stand and shut it off. He slowly opened his eye's and slowly sat him self up. He yawned and stretched then got out of bed. He slowly walked over to his walk in closet and picked out some clothes. All of Willy's outfits looked the same. He walked to his bathroom with the clothes folded in his arm. Willy's eye's were half shut, he was still waking up. He walked into the bathroom, closed the door, took a quick shower and got dressed.

Willy still half asleep and a bit groggy was now finally dressed. He slowly walked out of his room, down the hallway to the elevator door. He pushed the button for the elevator. When the elevator arrived it made a Ding sound. He then pushed the button for the doors to open, walked in and headed for the Candy Room.

Once he reached the room, he pushed the button for the doors to open on the elevator. His eye's quickly lit up. He put his head up to sniff the air in delight. He could smell Mrs. Bucket's cooking from where he was standing and it smelt good. A small tiny growl could be heard. He looked down at his stomach with one eye brow up and one eye brow down then said to his stomach "Oh stop."

He then walked over to Charlie's house and knocked on the door. Charlie answered the door and had a good idea who it was. Once Charlie opened the door Charlie looked up with a smile on his face and said "Good morning, Willy."

Willy who was still half asleep but standing there sniffing the air said "Huh?" Then he looked down at Charlie with a big smile and said "Oh Yeah! Good morning."

Charlie had opened the door more to let Willy in. Willy started sniffing the air again walked in and pretty much followed his nose. He stopped walking because he had walked into the table. He didn't seem to care that he did and said "Oh boy, that sure does smell good."

Charlie's dad who was sitting at the end of the rectangle table smiled and said "Would you like to join us for breakfast, Willy?"

Willy's eye's lit up with a big smile, he shook his head up and down then said "Yes. Please."

Willy took off his hat and hung it up on the hat rack next to the door. He had also set his cane against the wall. While he did so Charlie's mom who was at the stove cooking glanced at him and said "Willy dear, you know you don't have to wait to be asked to eat here. You should know you are always welcome here."

Willy warmly smiled while walking to the table to pull out a chair to sit down and said "Thanks! I'll keep that in mind. "

Charlie's dad got up to get plates to set the table for Mrs. Bucket. He smiled and said "You know very well we always make extra food for you ,Willy. "

Willy smiled at him and said "Oh!" He then nodded his head . He was about to say something but grandpa Joe who was sitting at the table interrupted Willy and said "So, what abomination are you two cooking up this time?"

Willy's big smile went to a half smile type of look. He did not like getting interrupted. So he changed his expression on his face over this. He looked at him with a confused look wondering what he meant by that and asked " Our what?"

Grandpa Joe smiled at Willy and answered "The new candy, what is it?"

Willy thought for a moment then smiled, he raised his eye brows up and said in a high tone of voice "Oh!"

Charlie had now cut Willy off before he could answer grandpa Joe. Charlie answered "It's really great grandpa."

While Charlie said that, Willy had his arms folded and was looking at Charlie with his lip slightly shifted and with a disappointed look on his face for being cut off again.

Charlie didn't notice this and continued to talk and smiled "It's a new mint candy."

Willy smirked and now said "It's just not any kind of candy mint. It's the greatest mint candies of all mint candies that could ever be! Know why! Know why!"

Grandpa Joe looked at Willy with amazement and said "Sounds big."

Willy took a deep breath in excitement and in a high voice "Yeah! It is very big! Heh."

Grandpa Joe was waiting in anticipation to find out and asked "Well, why? Why is it so big? What is it?"

Willy raised his eye brows and smiled at grandpa Joe eagerly answered "Whoa! Easy there turbo. Heh…Well, it's the most fantabulous, mint you can dream of!" Willy shook his head up and down then continued "It can last for a very long time. I'm not just talking hours, I'm talking week's, maybe even months!" Willy got a little giggly out of excitement "eh-heh-heh-heh" He then took a deep breath to try to calm him self down a little bit. Realizing he was working him self up. He was still smiling, still a little excited and said in a rush "Guess what the best part of it is! Guess! Guess! To late! Anywho, they pop big bursts of minty flavor in your mouth. Then after the pop it fizzes, leaving a tingle on your tongue. The best part is, heh, it never looses it's pop or fizz for months! Eh-heh-heh-heh"

Grandpa Joe was impressed and looked at Willy a little bit like he was crazy but said "It's brilliant!"

Willy shook his head with a big smile while still excited "I know!"

"What flavor's will you be making them in then Willy?" Charlie's dad asked who was listing in.

Willy smiled at him and in a rush he quickly said "All kinds! Arctic Chill, Wintergreen, Spearmint, Spicy hot-hot cinnamon, Cool Snoz Berry Mint, Very Berry Mint and many other wonderful minty flavor's you could think of!" Then he raised his hand and pointed in the air closing his eye's half way looking around at everyone saying "Oh, by the way, I had an incredible idea to make one with all of the flavors mixed in to one. So when you suck on it, it will pop with a new burst of flavor each time it pops."

Charlie smiled at Willy and said "I think that's a great idea."

Willy had now calmed down a little bit. He smiled at Charlie and nodded "Of course it is, all of my idea's are great."

Charlie nodded with a giggle and said "Right, of course."

Mrs. Bucket had said "Boy's, no business at the table." She had just finished cooking breakfast. She made everyone waffles, bacon, sausage and eggs. She set the platter's of food on the center of the table and Mr. Bucket helped her. She went to the fridge and got Wonka's very own maple syrup. This syrup was called Honey Maple Delight. This syrup was lightly sweet with a mellow touch of honey to it. She set it on the table. Then went to the fridge to get the gallon of Wonka's stay cold chocolate milk for drinks. She had also made coffee for who ever wanted coffee instead of the chocolate milk.

Charlie looked at Willy who was sitting across the table from him and asked "So Willy, what's on the schedule for today?"

Willy was watching Charlie's mom and dad setting up the table. He turned his attention to Charlie, smiled and answered "Well…"

Charlie's mom had cut Willy off looked at them both and said "Willy, no business at the table."

Willy slanted his lip to the side a little and said in a low tone of voice while looking at Charlie "He started it." Then he sighed and said "Besides, it's not business at all. He asked what I had planned for today, not what we were going to work on, silly." Then he stuck his tongue out at her like a child because he got told a second time about no business at the table.

Mrs. Bucket just rolled her eye's and shook her head saying "Willy, your older, you should know better then that."

Willy thought nothing of it but to make her happy. He faintly smirked at her and said "Eh-heh. It must have slipped my mind. I do remind you that it is still early yet, I'm sorry."

She finally sat down and they all ate. They finished every bit of food that were on those plates. Willy leaned back with a content look on his face. He placed his hand on his stomach and said "That sure was so gosh darn good!" A thought came across his mind after he had said this. He closes his eye's half way looked at Mrs. Bucket and asked "Hey, You wouldn't happen to be trying to make me as big as that kid that fell into my chocolate river on the first tour now would you?"

Mrs. Bucket looked at Mr. Bucket as if she were thinking what in the world is he talking about. Then she looked at Willy and asked "Who dear?"

Willy raised his hand and pointed up into the air to answer her "Well!" Then he had a look of pain on his face he looked at Charlie and shouted "Ow!"

Charlie knew where this was going, so he kicked him in the leg lightly. Willy of course over reacted and acted like it hurt when it really didn't. Charlie did this because he felt where Willy was going with this was not very nice. So Charlie just ignored the look on Willy's face. He turned to his mother and said "Don't pay any attention to him mom, it's still early."

Willy looked at Charlie confused , he was wondering why Charlie had kicked.

Mrs. Bucket nodded her head at Charlie and said "Oh, Okay dear."

Willy was still looking at Charlie with a confused look on his face. Charlie got up, walked over to the door, turned around and said "Come on Willy, we should get to work."

Willy shook his head still confused, he got up and said "Right." He turned to get his hat and cane. Charlie opened the door and then they walked out.

While walking over to the elevator. Willy lightly grabbed a hold of Charlie's arm and said childishly "Hey! What was that for?"

Charlie looked at Willy confused and asked "What was what for?"

Willy let go of his arm and folded his arms like a big kid who was disappointed. He forced a smirk on his face and said "Don't be silly. You know exactly what I am talking about."

Charlie shook his head in all honesty and said "Sorry, I don't."

Willy rolled his eye's like he was expecting Charlie to read his mind. He sighed and asked "Well, I want to know, what did you kick me for? You know at the table?" Then in a lower tone of voice he said "That was uncalled for."

Charlie gave Willy a serious look and said "Oh, because that wasn't very nice. You know. What you were going to say."

"Oh!" Willy said in a high tone of voice. Then in a snooty tone of voice he said "Well I will look like that kid if I keep getting fed like that."

Charlie shook his head and said "No. You wont. That's not very nice."

Willy rolled his eye's and sighed with a slight smirk on his face. In a low tone of voice he said "What-Ever."

Charlie just ignored him, they both continued to walk over to the elevator parked over by the river. Willy pressed the button on the outside of the elevator that read Main Lobby. The elevator's doors closed on its own, then lifted up in the air, hovered a few seconds above them and whoosh took off.

Charlie turned to look at Willy confused and asked "Why did you send it there? Why didn't we get on?"

Willy smirked. He shifted his eye's to look at Charlie and said "All in good time."

Willy then looked around and called for an oompa loompa by making that sound "Lulah-lulah-lulah!"

Charlie put his hand up to his mouth giggling when Willy made that sound.

The oompa loompa came to Willy and stood in front of him. Willy leaned down holding on to his cane and said "I want you to bring the boat around, Kay? I feel like taking that today, Kay? We'll be going to the Inventing Room, Kay?"

Charlie smiled and said "Oh I see. You wanted to take the boat."

Willy looked at Charlie with a smile and said "Yeah."

While the boat was on its way. Charlie looked up at Willy and asked "So, what do you have planned for us today?"

Willy smiled at Charlie and said "Uh. Well. We need to get to work on our new candy. Then we have to go to the coco bean room, because today is pay day and we need to pay the oompa loompa's those gosh darn coco beans they crave so much. Then we got to test out some new candies and make some improvements on them. To perfect them. Kay?"

Charlie smiled and was sorry he asked because now his head was swimming. Then he realized Willy had left out one little thing and asked "Um. Willy?"

Willy looked down at Charlie and asked "Uh, Yeah?"

"Shouldn't we, you know, check the TV first. To see if anyone else has won?" Charlie asked.

Willy gasped. He had nearly forgot about that. In fact he was happy that he did forget, until now. He wanted to say no but he did not want to hurt Charlie's feeling and forces a smirk on his face then said "Oh, eh-heh…Right."

The boat had now arrived and it had come to a complete stop. They got on the boat and Willy looked at the oompa loompa , waved his hand in the air saying "Onward!" The oompa loompa nodded and started beating the drum in front of him. They had arrived to the Inventing Room. They got off the boat, into the room and got right to work.

After a while it was about time for the news to come on. Charlie looked at the clock and then said "Willy, the news will be on shortly, we should find a TV to see if anyone else won."

Willy made a disgusted look on his face and under his breath he said "Uh-Ew!" Then Willy looked over at Charlie with a big smile and asked "Do we have to?"

Charlie giggled and nodded then asked "Come on Willy, don't you want to find out if anyone else won?"

Willy smiled at Charlie, he shook his head no like a child and said "MmnNo. Not Really, ha-hah."

Charlie laughed. He thought Willy was just kidding around like he usually does. But, he really wasn't. He really did not want to check the news. Charlie grabbed Willy's arm lightly and pulled Willy along saying while giggling "Come on, cut it out."

Willy went along with Charlie and with a confused look on his face asked wining like a kid "But, why? I don't want to."

Charlie, still thinking Willy was just playing around, he let go of Willy's arm and said "Yes you do, now stop."

Willy folded his arms and said "Fine. But we have to take the great glass elevator."

Charlie shrugged his shoulder's and said "Alright."

Willy walked over to the door for the elevator and pushed the button. The elevator arrived and then he had pushed the button for the doors to open. Once they did, the two of them stepped in and took off to Willy's office.

Once they reached the office. Charlie pressed the button for the doors to open. When the doors opened he ran over to the couch in the center of the room. He grabbed the remote and turned the TV on. Willy on the other hand was still standing in the door way, looking at the TV with a disgusted look on his face. He really did not want to see who else won and he just did not care.

Charlie looked over at him from the couch and waved him over. Willy glanced at Charlie, he forced a smirk on his face and nodded. He walked over to the couch and sat down next to Charlie like a stiff board.

Charlie was fixated on the TV listening to the news. Willy folded his arms like a child. He finally looked at the TV glairing at it and watch.

The News….

("Good afternoon, This is Anchor man Paul Watts with today's news." The anchor man said smiling at the camera and said " Today's topic's are the second lucky winner of the six golden tickets, A robbery at a local store and the question everyone is wanting to know, is alcohol really that good for you?" The Anchor man then looked up, as if he were looking to a box on his right with a News reporter standing in it and said "Let me now hand it over to Jean Krause, Who is standing with Mrs. Scarlett Tina Beauregarde In Atlanta, Georgia.")

Willy's eye's lit up very quick when he heard this name being announced and saw who it was on the TV. His jaw dropped in shock that she would be coming to the factory again. He had a look on his face as if he seen a ghost. In a shocked tone of voice he said "Oh…No…"

He quickly got up, went to the chair behind his desk to get as far away from the TV as possible and ducked down and he looked up over the chair a little bit peaking up at Charlie shouting "Ew! Change it! That women scares me."

Charlie was looking at Willy laughing. He thought he was again playing around. Then he told him "Shhh, knock it off. I'm trying to watch this."

Willy was still peaking his head up behind the chair to look at Charlie. When Charlie turned his head to look at the TV, Willy stuck his tongue out at him for telling him to shush. Then Willy glared at the TV in disgust. He felt sick to his stomach when he saw who won, he then ducked his head down behind the chair again. He did not want to watch.

See Willy did not like this women. The last time that he had sent out golden ticket's to children. Her daughter had gotten one. Violet Beauregarde, the gum chewer. He was a bit worried that she may come there to cause a problem over her child still being very flexible and the color of a blueberry. She had also tried to make a pass at Willy while in the Candy Room at his factory, which he did not like one bit. This is why he had a problem with who had found the second ticket.

Mrs. Beauregarde was a very proud women and very proud of her daughters achievements. She was about 45 years old. She had blonde short hair and blue eye's. She had pale skin and was very athletic. She was a single mom. She was very out going, a little snooty and a bit trashy. She had a one tracked mind and was very stubborn. When it came to competition she set her eye's on the prize and would try to eliminate the competition. Well little did Willy know, her infatuation for Willy had grown stronger. She was absolutely crazy about him now. This craziness became a bad obsession . She was a smart women but not for the right reasons, she had an idea why the tickets were sent out to women. She was also a little air headed and gullible. She was crazy for him, now she had the idea in her head alright and I mean literally crazy. She planned to stop at nothing until she got what she thought was the grand prize and yes I do mean Willy.

Willy had peaked his head up again from behind the chair at his desk to watch some more in horror.

Back to the news…

TV reporter Jean Krause asked Mrs. Beauregard " How did you find the second golden ticket? How does it feel to be so lucky to find one?"

Mrs. Beauregarde smiled with a warm creepy smile and said " Oh it feels very good… I don't know how on earth I got a ticket, I guess it is because I am a winner.. I guess. " Then she winked at the camera.

Jean then asked another question "Mrs. Beauregarde, I understand that this would be considered your second time getting to go to the factory? Also, is Willy Wonka to blame for your daughter's freak accident?"

Mrs. Beauregarde nodded her head "Yes, my little Violet was a lucky winner the first round…Oh yes, It would be my second time in that handsome man's factory. I call it destiny. I feel I am destine to be with that fine man. I do believe destiny lead me to find that second ticket." She then shook her head no saying "Oh No…I do not blame silly Willy for what had happened to my daughter Violet. It is her own fault because she would not listen to that fine man, when he had told the children not to touch anything."

Charlie had a disgusted look on his face by how she was talking about Willy in a crazy lovey dovey way and said to him self in a low tone of voice "gross."

Willy stuck his finger in his mouth to make it look like he was gagging. He then looked at the TV disgusted, stood up and said "Right. Destiny will lead you right out of the factory too. Oh it will, you are the first one to go."

Willy then looked at Charlie with a sickened look on his face. Charlie on the other hand was laughing at what Willy had said. Willy was not happy he really did feel sick to the stomach and asked "What's so funny?" Then one of his evil smiles came on his face. Like he had a plan brewing on how he was going to eliminate her. "If that trashy wangdoodle. Thinks she is going to come to my factory calling me by that awful name she called me on TV, then she has another thing coming!" He then had a thought come to mind and had a crazy look on his face and laughed "Eh-heh-heh-heh. I can send her down the garbage chute along with the other trash. Maybe, just maybe. We could turn on the incinerator! Boy wouldn't that be fun?"

Charlie looked at Willy like he was crazy and said "Willy!"

Willy smiled at Charlie and said "Heh. Just Kidding….Oh, but she is the first one to go. Yeah, she's first." Then he shook his head up and down after he had said that.

Charlie giggled and said "Relax Willy, It'll be fine. You may not have to get rid of her first."

Willy gasped while shaking his head up and down again and said "Oh, but I do!" He smiled at Charlie and said "That Women is Crazy. I can tell just by looking at her. So she defiantly will have to go."

Charlie just shook his head while giggling. He knew he just could not reason with Willy. Charlie sighed with a smile on his face and said "Oh, Okay. Do what you want, Willy."

Willy was standing by the side of his desk. He walked around and over to the doors to the elevator. He smiled at Charlie and said " Come on Charlie. We must go to the coco bean room so we can pay those delightful oompa loompa's." Charlie nodded, when Willy turned he stopped. He was inches from the elevator door. He smiled and laughed at it, "Ha-hah-hah-hah…You didn't get me this time now, did you!"

Willy then pressed the button for the elevator the doors opened, they got in and took off.

In the elevator, Willy had that crazy smirk on his face again and was unusually quiet. He was thinking about how he was going to eliminate Mrs. Beauregarde and had a few good idea's come to mind already.

Charlie on the other hand, looked at Willy. He was a bit concerned. Willy had that crazy smirk on his face but looked as if he were in a daze. Charlie then tugged on Willy's sleeve on his jacket and asked "Willy, are you alright?"

Willy shook his head, looked at Charlie with that crazy smirk on his face and said slowly "y-e-a-h."

Charlie looked at him funny and asked "Were you having another flash back?"

Willy shook his head no and said "MmnNo! I was having a day-mare." Willy said this to Charlie because he did not want to let Charlie know that he was actually plotting on how to get rid of Mrs. Beauregarde. So he had told him that he was having a day-mare.

Charlie laughed and asked "What's a day-mare?"

Willy smiled at Charlie and said "Well, It's kind of like a daydream and a nightmare combined. But, the nightmare happens while you are daydreaming . So I call it a day-mare."

Charlie understood this and asked " What was it about?"

Willy then puffed up his cheeks. Faking a gag again and said "I was dreaming I was being attacked by that horrible scary women that we had just seen on the TV."

Charlie shook his head and just rolled his eyes thinking here we go again.

Willy was still smiling at Charlie and said "Guess what?"

Charlie looked at Willy and asked "What is it, Willy?"

Willy was still smiling at Charlie and said "It seems like I will be having day-mares increasingly. This week."

Charlie shook his head and said " Oh stop Willy, that's ridiculous."

Willy shook his head up and down saying "MmnNo! It's true."

Charlie rolled his eye's again shaking his head, he thought that Willy was implying that it was his fault and said "Well, I didn't mean for her to get one. It wasn't my fault."

Willy nodded his head with a silly smile on his face and said "Is too! Is too! Know why? Know Why? You're the one who sent out those tickets. I didn't. No-Way!" Then he smiled at Charlie and said "But don't worry your silly little head about it, you didn't mean it. She may be the worst of the worstest things that could ever possibly find a ticket. I sure do fear her arrival. But! I'll take care of her. I sure will." He then giggled in a high tone of voice but slowly "heh-heh-heh-heh"

Charlie sighed and just ignored him. They had finally reached the Coco Bean Room. They got off the elevator and got right to work. The oompa loompa's lined up to receive their coco beans. Unfortunately this was going to take a while.
