Previously on Sherman and the Chocolate Factory...
After news broke out about the fifth ticket being found, Sherman gets crestfallen, having failed to find the last ticket. He finds a $10 bill and goes to spend his newfound money on a Wonka Bar. Shortly thereafter, the recent news of the final ticket were proven to be false as it was all a hoax to fool the world. But once Sherman opens his Wonka bar, he finds the last Golden Ticket inside, and for real. Despite tempting offers for the ticket, Sherman runs home to show his family the ticket, with Grandpa Hector being the most excited. The five ticket finders read their instructions for the following day, but Sherman refuses as he wants to sell the ticket off to feed his family, saddening his grandfather in the process. But Grandpa George reassures his that this is a once in a lifetime opportunity he cannot let go of. With his mind convinced, he smiles as he awaits the following day.
Chapter 10: Introducing Willy Wonka
The big day has finally arrived as the lucky winners and their families face the gray gates of the Wonka chocolate factory. Not only that but a swarm of TV, Radio, and other media outlets gather behind them snapping pictures and recording video footage.
Augustus, wearing a red and white striped shirt and navy blue shorts, brings his mother along wearing full makeup, and large blouse with a mix of colors for the day. Veruca, wearing a light pink blouse with a cream color fur and leather jacket, brings her father, who wears a full business suit and tie. Violet brings her equally athletic, and ambitious mother, who both wear matching sky blue tracksuits with gold colored jackets. Mike wears a red long sleeved shirt under a black short sleeved shirt with a large design of a skull and pair of black jeans brings his father along wearing a plain blue and white striped polo shirt, and khakis with a tan colored jacket over his upper body.
Finally Sherman wears his raggedy old black pants and a yellow plaid button up shirt hidden by his old patterned sweater. As promised, he brings Grandpa Hector, who wears an old gray wool jacket over his old and worn black plaid suit with a gray hat ti match his outer jacket. He also still has his raggedy old bowtie, but cleaned it the best he can. They both look behind to see Sherman's parents among the crowd. His dad smile and waves at them while Sherman's mom blows them each a kiss for good luck and to have fun.
The other winners look at the other kids and sense competition amongst them. They all face their last minute words.
Veruca: Daddy, I want to go in!
Mr. Salt: It's only 9:59 dear.
Veruca: Well make time go faster!
Sherman: Do you think Mr. Wonka will recognize you?
Grandpa Hector: Hard to believe. It's been ages since the last time we met.
Augustus and Mrs. Gloop do not say a word as the fat Germany boy munches on his Wonka bar.
Ms. Beauregarde: Eyes on the prize Violet. Eyes on the prize.
Violet: Yes mother.
Mike and Mr. Teevee also stay silent as Mike plays a violent game on his PSVita.
Then, it was 10:00am sharp. The gates opens with a large clunk, and creaked open. Everyone watched with anticipation as the doors slowly swung open. The PA system activates to let out a calm yet stern voice.
PA system: Please enter...
All ten visitors make their way inside the now open gates. Once they walks inside the property, they reformed the straight line they had a few seconds earlier.
PA system: Come forward...
They all start to walk to the official factory entrance at the same time without one being faster or slower than another.
PA system: Close the gates...
Once they were far away from the gates, they start to swing back towards their original position. Slowly and slowly, they close, official separating the Golden Ticket finders from the rest of the world.
PA system: Dear visitors, it is with great pleasure that I welcome you to my humble factory.
They all reach the concrete steps leading to three metal doors which have been worn with time.
PA system: And who am I? Well...
The doors suddenly open as a larger door to reveal a velvet red curtain with the iconic Wonka "W" logo. They unfold to reveal a stage decorated with brightly colored candies. Not only that, some animatronic dolls start waving their arms, shaking their heads, and moving their lips as the dolls "sang" a song.

CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY WIKIWONKA'S WELCOME SONG
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Wonka's Welcome Song is the song used byWilly Wonka to greet his guests at hischocolate factory. The song is characterized by its catchy melody and high-pitched, somewhat-annoying singing.
2005 film
When the five children and their guardians finally arrive to Wonka's chocolate factory, they are not greeted by Mr. Wonka, but by a display of puppets resembling small children, dancing around and singing Wonka's Welcome Song. After the song is over, a chair pops up from the floor in the rear, but it is empty. A huge amount of fireworks is lit off, setting some of the puppets on fire. The show proceeds to melt down, and many close-ups are shown of the melting puppets. Mr. Wonka appears next to the guests, clappig and praising the show for the finale. After they leave the entrance, Oompa Loompas take the damaged puppets and put them in the Puppet Hospital and Burn Centre.
Lyrics
Willy Wonka,
Willy Wonka,
The amazing chocolatier.
Willy Wonka,
Willy Wonka,
Everybody give a cheer!
He's modest, clever, and so smart,
He barely can restrain it.
With so much generosity,
There is no way to contain it!
To contain it!
To contain, to contain, to contain!
The song was too high pitched and annoying to listen to, but they didn't nothing since this is their first time seeing something like this. Although Augustus and Mrs. Gloop do seem to enjoy the show.
Willy Wonka,
Willy Wonka,
He's the one that you're about to meet.
Willy Wonka,
Willy Wonka,
He's a genius who just can't be beat.
The magician and the chocolate wiz,
The best darn guy who ever lived,
in the middle of the stage, a red throne like chair rises, but no one seems to be sitting on it.
Willy Wonka, here he is!
Pyrotechnics then shoot out from the stage. It seems nice and innocent, until fire starts to erupt from the stage and burn the plastic and wax dolls. Every single doll was burned minorly, or severely. One doll had his face melted and his eyeballs pop from their sockets.
Suddenly they all heard clapping and giggling as at the very end of the human line was a man with pale white skin, a bowl hair cut with semi long hair, a red top hat and jacket and buldgy sunglasses.
Man: Yay! Wasn't that fantastic? I was really getting worried because it was getting shaky in the middle, but that finale... wow!
The man walks up the steps and faces the small crowd with a smile.
Violet: Who are you?
Grandpa Hector only smiles wide as he recognizes the man.
Grandpa Hector: He's Willy Wonka!
Sherman: Really?
The smile on Willy Wonka's face starts to shake and twitch as he tries to figure out what to say. Everyone looks at him with a hint of confusion.
Willy Wonka: G-good morning starshine. The Earth says... hello
They all look at him confusingly more than ever. Realizing he had an alternate approach, he reaches into his pocket and pulls out a set of cards in which he reads out loud.
Willy Wonka: Dear guests. Greetings. Welcome to the factory. I shake you warmly by the hand.
He extends his hand towards then expecting a simple handshake, but wasn't offered one so he retracts his hand back.
Willy Wonka: My name is Willy Wonka.
Veruca: Then shouldn't you be up there?
Willy Wonka: Well then I wouldn't watch the show from up here, now would I, little girl?
Wonka puts his cards back, once Grandpa Hector walks up and speaks up.
Grandpa Hector: Mr. Wonka? I don't know if you remember me, but I used to work here in the factory.
Willy Wonka then frowned remembering why he closed the factory in the first place.
Willy Wonka: We're you one of those despicable spies who everyday tried to steal my life's work and Dell it to those parasitic copycat candy making cats?!
Grandpa Hector: No sir.
Willy Wonka then smiles.
Willy Wonka: Then wonderful. Welcome back. Let's get a move on kids.
He then walks towards the firey remains of the stage into another door.
Augustus: Don't you vant to know our names?
Willy Wonka: Can't imagine how it would matter. Come quickly, there's far too much to see.
Once the walked in, the outer doors start to slide back into their original spots, recreating the illusion that the one big door has three normal doors, as it closes.
To be Continued...
A/N: Well it took ten chapters and almost a year, but Willy Wonka finally makes his appearance. But that welcome was far too creepy. I mean it looks like a horror movie for crying out loud. I guess that's what you should expect when Tim Burton directed this adaptation.
Anywas, the Golden Ticket hint is officially over. No more craze, no more sales, but still five possible winners of Wonka's ultimate prize. Who will take it? The answer will be revealed in due time.
Fun fact: The author of the 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" Roald Dahl, was heavily disappointed in the original 1971 film as he believed it wasn't the same story he made, and that it had too much focus on Willy Wonka rather than Charlie. I wonder what he would think of this adaptation if he was alive to see it?
I would like to apologize to all the readers about the one-day update delay. I recently started working so I will be busier than normal, but I will try to keep updating this and other stories in a scheduled pace the best I can.
