Act II: The Ghost of Christmas Past
Dobby: Scrooge was trying to fall asleep, but could not. Dobby is thinking this is because Scrooge is drinking 12-ounces of Muggle drink called Mountain Dew. Suddenly, there is loud pop, and lady is falling on top of Scrooge.
*Woman picks self up, looks at bed in disgust, and dusts herself off. *
Hermione: WAKE UP, YOU FOP!!!
*Scrooge wakes up with a start. *
Scrooge: What the.
Hermione: I'm the Ghost of Christmas Past, and I'm supposed to help you. I think it's rather pointless, but oh well. GET UP!
* Scrooge gets up and is seen wearing bunny pajamas. *
Hermione: *snicker * Nice pajamas. Take my hand as soon as I put my gloves on.
* She puts a pair of dragonhide gloves on and Scrooge takes her hand with a puzzled look. *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Dobby: Scrooge and the Ghost of Christmas Past is now in little room. There is a little fire going and a little boy is sitting reading a book. * snicker *
Hermione: Here we go. Scrooge, for your viewing displeasure, I present the younger you. * snicker * Do you remember what you were reading?
Scrooge: I, I used to read sappy Muggle romance novels. * sniffles * I would pretend I was in them and that somebody loved me. * starts bawling * Only my sister ever loved me. * starts crying again *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Winky: Now it's another Christmas more little Scrooge.
* Author appears suddenly *
Author: Good job, Winky! * hugs Winky and leaves *
Dobby: Little Scrooge is now not so little and reading another sappy Muggle romance novel. * snickers * Suddenly, a young woman runs in and hugs Scrooge.
Scrooge: That's my, my little sister, Fan. She was so kind, and hyper.
Fan: Brother, you are to come home! Father says you don't have to stay here any longer. You are to come home! * starts jumping up and down *
* Young Scrooge hugs fan and she drags him outside with her. *
Hermione: Your sister had children, did she not?
Scrooge: * wipes tear from eye * Yes, twin boys. She died young, and left them as my only relatives. I shouldn't have been so mean to them earlier.
Hermione: Good, you are learning from what I have shown you. Now, we must continue on.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Dobby: Scrooge and Ghost of Christmas Past is now inside a castle. Younger Scrooge is writing in book and is drinking eggnog. Another boy is working also when an old man comes in.
Mr. Fezziwig: No more work tonight. It's Christmas! Get everything ready!
* Scrooge and Dick Wilkins pull out their wands and fly around the room putting up decorations. They then move tables and Mrs. Fezziwig comes in. *
Mrs. Fezziwig: Boys, come with me. We have to get the food.
* Everything is finally ready and guests start coming in. Scrooge watches his younger self, remembering how much fun he had before he had turned into an icy-hearted miser. *
Hermione: Small thing, that party. Must've only cost a few galleons. Such a small thing to make people so happy and full of gratitude.
Scrooge: Small?!! He could make us happy or sad, make our work heavy or light. That is more valuable than all the riches in the world.
Hermione: come, we must continue on. My time grows short, and I don't want to be late for the Christmas party one of the other spirits is throwing.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Winky: Scrooge and the Ghost of Christmas Past is now outside in the snow, by a bridge. Younger Scrooge is talking to unrespectable looking young woman.
Author: * suddenly appearing * You did really good that time, Winky! Congratulations! * she vanishes again *
Young Scrooge: What are you talking about?!!
Belle: I have been replaced by gold, silver, and bronze idols. That makes three! You care more about money than me! You find yourself a new girl. There are plenty of stupid, unrespectable young women in London. I'm sure you'll find one you like.
Young Scrooge: Don't go Belle!
* Belle stomps off, wrapping a trashy, faux fur coat around herself. *
Scrooge: I should've paid more attention to her. Actually, now that I think about it, why was I going out with her in the first place?
Hermione: Temporary insanity, maybe? Hmm, I think I'll skip showing you her husband and kids. You would like it too much. Goodbye, Scroogie!
* She vanishes, and Scrooge ends up back in bed. *
