After the story and marvelous adventure of Jeremy Hudder, entering the world’s famous chocolate factory run by a reclusive, and rather eccentric confectioner. I decided to write a little story snippet, which isn’t considered a part of the story, but its own separate thing, shows Miles Fox walking around, singing about the magic of imagination. This is by no means connected—in any way to the story Jeremy and the Chocolate Factory—or as seen as a “remake” to the Gene Wilder film. Gene Wilder was a good actor, no doubt, but the original Willy Wonka film didn’t get the Roald Dahl style right, and went a completely different direction which damaged the character of who Willy Wonka truly was.

But I believe that the lyrics to the song “Pure Imagination” suits incredibly well for my character Miles Fox! Again, this isn’t connected in any way to my story, the original book by Roald Dahl, or the Tim Burton film that I based it on. But seen as its own separate little thing I decided to write for fun. Rest in Peace Roald Dahl, and Gene Wilder. Gone but not forgotten. Rights to the lyrics of Pure Imagination, belong to writers Anthony Newley, and Leslie Bricusse.

THE MAGIC OF PURE IMAGINATION

Miles Fox knelt down to the tiny metal door, pulled out a ring of keys from his plum-colored velvet tailcoat, and slipped one of them into the lock. The lock made a heavy sound, as the key thumped heavily as the key turned the lock in the door.

All around him in the corridor, the ageway had shrunken down incredibly small, the fitter he got when he entered the chocolate factory after the whole tour with the five children and golden tickets filled the world with complete chaos.

He put the keys back into the pocket of his coat, and reached a pearly gray gloved hand onto the silver door handle, pushed it down, and pushed the door open and stepped into the chocolate room.

It was a stunning, beautiful sight that met his eyes! As if he'd stepped into his own dreams—or even better, his own world of imagination, where he was free to daydream as long as he would like. And nobody would be there to criticize him for his odd, quirky, and energetic eccentricities of his personality.

Gripping onto the brim of his black top hat, the reddish-orange two-tailed fox knelt down (as if like some sort of twisted version of limbo), and walked through the tiny door and into the chocolate room—which as Mr. Willy Wonka, in his story, had stated that it was one of the important rooms.

He stood and watched as a hot, melted brown chocolate waterfall poured out, graciously, and became a flowing, bubbly, frothy river at the bottom. He recalled a moment at the Mega PizzaPlex with Montgomery Gator, when the two of them were golfing. Monty glitched out and used his own golf clubs and sent him hurtling into the brown, murky waters in Gator Golf. Which had incidentally caused him to get the idea for a gluttonous, overly-fat boy to stumble around in the luscious mint candy meadows.

Ripping up handfuls of mint-sugary grass, stuffing his face full with it, and shortly after accidentally falling into the chocolate river, and got sent up one of the several glass pipes that sucked him up.

His big, chocolate-colored bow tie seemed to glimmer with the multicolored spots. His golden waistcoat glimmered in the light of the room…but in the background…there was an ever lingering, dark presence in the background as a magical place like this. Something wicked, and ominous was in the background. Along the buttoned waistcoat, there was a silver waistcoat chain that shook whenever he moved; and it made strange noises.

In his hand was a beautiful glass walking cane. Inside it there were thousands of little colorful pieces of candy, with a white-and-black swirled ball top. And a tinge of gold! His tails twisted and twined in the beauty of the whole place.

He simply based in the beauty and magic of such a marvelous place that was all opened to him.

The whole entire room was like the size of two football fields put together, with an entire luscious field stretched far across as eyes could see.

Suddenly, as he was caught in the moment with another one of his daydreams, he felt like some sort of song brewing deep down inside him.

He itted on many occasions that while he wasn’t as good of a singer compared to the others—like Glamrock Freddy, Glamrock Bonnie, or anybody else—he had to it his voice; whenever he did sing, on those occasions was almost captivating. It was the kind of voice you could listen to. Allowing you to be taken onto a whirl of whimsical magic, excitement, and adventure!

A type of magic that insisted anything impossible; become possible!

In that moment of beauty, and luscious/relaxing sounds of the waterfall and simple beauty, Miles Fox began to sing….

“Come with me and you’ll be in a world of Pure Imagination! Take a look and you’ll see…into your imagination,” Miles Fox walked down along the luscious meadows, lowered a gloved hand down into the meadows, and, graciously, stroked the blades of minty sugary grass with his gloved hand. “We’ll begin, with a spin, traveling; in the World of My Creation! What we’ll see—will defy…Explanation!”

The eccentric fox walked further down the meadows, taking everything in with those bright, energetic, twinkling—dancing blue—eyes. As he got closer towards the waterfall: chocolate could be seen splashing down in a loud, churning froth. The beautiful browny river of chocolate flowed softly alongside the edge of the river bank, and Miles carefully scooped up a dipping-ladle full of chocolate and had a sip. A smile grew across his lips as the creamy chocolate ran down his throat.

“The magic of pure imagination, allows one to make your own childish fantasies, become one’s reality! Reach out touch—what was once—just in your imagination!”

The two-tailed fox traveled farther along the riverbank. Gracefully touching the beautiful meadows that were growing alongside him.

The chocolate room was like a secret garden—which could only be found from some otherworldly planet. It was simply breathtaking for one to have the ability to enter one’s imagination! Then, suddenly, Miles Fox spun around on his heels (quite gracefully as if he was some sort of magician), turned around, and—looking into the distance at some sort of invisible audience, he bowed down; with his black top hat in his hand.

Placing his magnificent black top hat back on, he spun around, jumped up into the air…and suddenly…something magical happened!

Miles Fox began to fly! His two tails spun around, rotating in a full circle, which caused Miles to fly into the air like a helicopter! He began to lower back down, gracefully, onto the grass on his shoes.

“If you want to view paradise: simply look around and view it! Anything you want to—Do it! Want to change the world? There’s nothing to it!” Suddenly as if filled with some terrific—sizzling—energy, Miles Ash Fox dashed around the meadows, placing a hand into his pocket, like some sort of terrific romp around in the chocolate room! “There is no life I know, to compare with pure imagination! Living there, you'll be free…If you truly wish to be!”

Around the chocolate room, other animatronics were in separate parts of the luscious fields. Some of those animatronic friends were Glam-rock BonBon; a blue-colored rabbit with magenta checks and long ears with magenta-colored tips, and wore a dinner-styled outfit. Her eyes were a lovely green color, and she was seen down by the riverbank.

Miles Fox walked over towards her, knelt down, grabbed a handful of blades of minty grass, and handed it to her—while singing. She ate them with tenderness and love. Savoring every last bite.

“Mmmh…this grass tastes like minty sugar! How’d you manage to come up with something like this, Miles?” Glam-rock BonBon asked, enthusiastically. “It’s all in the magic of pure imagination!” Miles Fox answered, smiling brightly at her.

He got up and continued exploring around, meanwhile, as all the other animatronics enjoyed themselves with some of the tasty candies, sweets, and chocolates that the room had to offer.

Another one of the animatronics was a black cat with attached bat wings, named Jazzy Kat.

Her fur was dark black, with light gray scales, and light-and-dark gray-colored feathers along her body.

The cat’s eyes were purple and red in both of her eyes! Unfortunately, due to being completely colorblind, she could only see in a color of monochrome (that’s black and white colors) vision. So she unfortunately couldn’t see all the wonderful, beautiful colors that the room was covered in.

But despite this she was munching on one of the nice red-candied apples that were seen growing on several huge, candied trees!

Along her tail was a blade-like weapon, which popped out; which could be used as a weapon!

“If you want to view paradise,” Miles Fox sang to his heart’s content, “simply look around and view it! Want to change the world…there’s nothing to it.”

Another one of the animatronics was a beautiful animatronic dog, named Loony! She was a walking animatronic; with a gumball machine situated around her stomach, with a glass window which allowed people to see inside!

Her eyes were brilliant red-and-purple colors. She was eating some of the tasty candies that were growing on one of the few bushes along the riverbanks near the chocolate river.

The tufts of her fur on her head were splashed with vibrant pink and blue colors, and blue and pink sprinkle patterns covering her legs. Along her neck was a purple collar; with an added golden tag that hung below it with her name written into it. Her tail was wagging joyfully in the sight of this magical, candy wonderland she now found herself in.

One of the few humans in the group was Gregory, who wore a blue-colored collared shirt, with black stripes, tan shorts, brown messy hair, red-colored sneakers, and brown eyes. He could hardly contain himself, as he was dashing around a section of the candied wonderland and scooping up as many candies or chocolates he could find.

Safe to say, there was not a single chocolate or candy that didn’t go untouched in his fingers.

A tall orange deer sat along the riverbank, drinking what appeared to be a lemon-colored buttercup (which looked like a teacup and saucer) placed in his hands as he was sipping whatever was in it.

He was a slimmer spring lock animatronic, with a rubber face. His accents—in fact his whole entire body, even, was made of light orange-colored rubber! His eyes were glowing purple, with two long ears and tall antlers, and a purple-colored top hat. His color scheme consisted of tan, orange, and purple. His eyes were rich, vibrant purple!

Unnaturally, his jaw, when opened, became unhinged, and inside his mouth was a row of sharp, inner teeth! He wore a beautiful plum-colored coat.

Glamrock Bonnie and Glamrock Freddy were both accompanying Gregory, as he and their other friends explored the vast chocolate room!

Miles Fox walked alongside the riverbank, and watched the chocolate river flow graciously beneath. His reflection looked back up at him from the hot, brown river that flowed smoothly.

“Anything you want to. Do it. Want to change the world? There’s nothing to it!” He looked over at one of the unoccupied bushes with lovely buttercups, and gracefully walked over—but not before having a taste from one of the delectable mint leaves that were growing on one of the trees nearby.

Settling down into the luscious patch of bushes, he took one of the bright yellowish-colored ones and had a sip. “Woah! Now that’s scrumdiddlyumptious!” His eyes widened brightly, as the taste of lemon custard touched his younger, but with a rich, creamy chocolate aftertaste.

He took another sip from the little cup, and then another. Until the whole thing was empty. And took a big bite out of it.

“There is no life I know…,” Miles Fox said, taking a careful sip from his cup, “to compare with Pure Imagination. Living there, you’ll be free…if you truly wish to be….!”

Then afterwards when Miles finished with his tasty little treat, he stood back up, and walked over near the corner of the room where the chocolate river and waterfall was visible in sight. “Come with me, and you’ll be, in a world of pure imagination!” Miles Fox sang joyfully, looking amongst everyone that was in the chocolate room, wondering if everyone else was going to in on and sing.

He took a breath, slowly, lowering his head down—feeling a bit of shame that nobody else saw the exact same vision as he did, when suddenly Glam-rock BonBon finally said, “Take a look…and you’ll see…into your imagination!” A smile was on her face and she smiled up at Miles, warmly.

In that instant Ajax, a yellow-colored rabbit with brown coloring around his ears, arms, and stomach. His eyes were glistening green as he sang along with Glam-rock BonBon!

Amongst all the animatronics, there was a humanoid one named Lorene Hope Jackson “Lolo” who was busy scavenging around the minty fields looking for something tasty to eat, when she heard singing coming from one area of the room. She was at least four-foot six tall, with lovely yellow-faded black hair, with a pink bow on the top, green eyes. She wore a light-blue dress with a pink bow tied around her waist, black shoes, and a light blue bandana which completed the outfit. Following the noise of singing, she eventually stumbled upon a huge group of animatronics who seemed to be singing a rather imaginative, joyful song about believing in pure imagination? Lolo thought. A little bit nervous, she began to sing along.

“We'll begin with a spin,” Glamrock Bonnie sang, “traveling in the world of my creation! What we'll see will defy—Explanation!”

“If you want to view paradise: simply look around and view it,” Miles Fox cried, continuing in the song, “want to change the world? There’s nothing to it. There is no life I KNOW to COMPARE with PURE IMAGINATION! Living there, you’ll be free if you truly wish to be…!”

Then, as if by some miracle had taken place, everyone began to in singing—in complete unison. It was simply an awe-inspiring moment. Miles Fox leapt down from the little grassy clump of hill, and began to calmly walk up near the chocolate waterfall, then began to do a peaceful three-hundred-and-sixty-degree spin, with his arms held out wide beside him. Then he stopped, turned, and stared straight ahead at the beautiful view of the whole entire chocolate room.

Everyone crowded around in one whole group, and they began to sing in complete unison.

“Come with me, and you’ll be in a world of pure imagination! Living there, you’ll be free, if you truly wish to be. If you want to view paradise: simply look around and view it. Anything you want to…Do it! Want to change the world,” Miles Fox turned around to look at everyone that was standing beside him, with a twinkling of his eyes and smile. “There’s nothing to it…!”

“THERE IS NO LIFE I KNOW, TO COMPARE WITH PURE IMAGINATION…!”

Suddenly, a chocolate-colored Glam-rock rabbit with two long ears, mint-green eyes, a black-colored nose (which smelled like licorice!) stepped out from the group.

He wore a burgundy-colored velvet tailcoat, with purple-colored gloves, a black top hat, black shoes, and an Easter-themed matching waistcoat!

Centered on his chest was a touch screen, and below that, was a dispenser.

Along his body were Easter egg pattern designs along his arms, legs—his whole body in fact was covered in a stylish, Easter-themed design!

His voice was soft as silk, “Living there, you’ll be free. If you truly…wish…to be…!”

“That…,” Miles Fox said calmly, “that is the magic of what makes pure imagination so special! Always believe in your dreams, no matter how silly, childish, or whimsical as they may seem. And they will come true!”

In that moment, everything was silent, then, the whole room burst into cheering, applauding, and clapping for Miles Fox! The two-tailed eccentric Fox inventor and genius, who was capable of turning his dreams into a reality!

Miles Fox stood in the middle of the crowd, while Gregory stood next beside Miles on his left, Glam-rock BonBon stood on his right, and Glamrock Freddy and Bonnie stood on their left and right. Miles Fox smiled brightly, as they watched the luscious chocolate waterfall pour down into the river down below. Miles Fox dashed over towards the river, dipped a ladle into the river, filled it with chocolate, and handed it to Gregory; who took it kindly and drank some of it with astonishment.
