Happy Tree Friends presents:

"Million Dollar Morons"

Starring: Lifty and Shifty

Featuring: Lumpy and Disco Bear

(Introducing: Virgo, Kayla, and Milo)

Our episode begins on a cool day in the middle of June, many clouds hovered over the pink and yellow skies above. Cars were passing each other on the streets as the warm summertime breeze was soaring across the trees.

Many townsfolk were passing their time by walking along the streets and chatting with one another. The green street lamps that stood nice and tall were shining a soft over every head that passed underneath.

These days were very rare in Happy Tree Town, due to the massive immortality rates that go around. Every little thing was still as majestic as it can be.

Apart from it's beauty, there were some sights that aren't as beautiful. It's mostly signs of some of the unexpected events you could never suspect.

Meanwhile, in the wide cavern of a dark alley on 23rd Cherry Blossom St, a pair of rusty trash cans were standing next to each other. One of the cans had a banana peel on the lid while the other one had plenty of mud stains painted all around it.

The trash cans began to shake back and forth until a green figure popped out from one of the cans.

That green figure was no more than Shifty, one of the famous "Raccoon Brothers", a famous duo known for their malicious robberies and thefts.

Shifty threw the dirty lid of the trash can far away until it his a corner in the alley. The raccoon shuddered in disgust before dusting off some of the debris stuck to his fur. As he adjusted the fedora on his head, his brother, Lifty, poked out of the other trash can. He was also covered in trash bits as he began to crawl out.

Both of the raccoons found themselves standing by the cans while picking off the rest of the paper bits off their tails.

"How many times have I told you, Lifty?" Shifty hissed to his younger sibling,"Rich people would never throw thier gold in the trash to avoid paying taxes!"

Lifty only shrugged his shoulders slightly. "Well, what if they did?" He replied.

Shifty smacked his paw on his forehead while his other paw was positioned on his hip. Then he placed his paws on each of his brother's shoulders with a rather annoyed look plastered on his face.

"...You're an idiot.." He said calmly.

"I know..." Lifty said as his ears drooped a little.

That's when Shifty started to pace back and forth in front of Lifty with his arms behind his back. He was pacing in a small circle while began to speak.

"Look, we both wanna be rich, right?" He asked. His brother nodded his head as if to say yes. Shifty continued, "My latest plan is that we have to get rich first!

"But isn't that the same thing?" Lifty asked, tiling his head to the side.

"Yes, except there'll be no dimwits or anybody to stop us! Especially that goody-two shoes Splendid guy!" Shifty muttered, curling a fist under his paw.

All of a sudden, Shifty's ears flickered a little bit when the two heard some type of music playing from a long distance.

It was some type of 90's swing melody mixed with electric/ hip hop mixed into it. For the raccoons, it seemed quite catchy.

Lifty and Shifty quietly peeked from the shadows of the alley, only to find that the source of the music was coming from a golf cart driving up their way. This made the two raise their eyebrow in confusion.

However, the reason they raised their eyebrows is because it was no ordinary golf cart in the least.

The entire cart was painted in nothing but sparkly gold paint. On the hood was the logo of a old CD player with some musical notes scattered around. The tires of the cart had silver rims with little diamond squares trimmed all over each one.

"Ehehehehehehe!" The raccoons snickered as they exchanged their cheeky grins and a quick high five. It seemed like that cart was worth a thousand dollars or something.

The golf cart stopped in front of a TV shop, giving the two the signal to sneak quietly from the alley and prepare to steal the cart.

Inside the cart was the driver, Lumpy, who was reading a map (that was upside down). He put the map down when he noticed the raccoons standing on the the hood of the cart.

"Uh, hey man!' Shifty grinned slyly as Lifty snickered.

"Hello there!" The moose replied, being the idiot that he was.

"Can we "borrow" that cart? We'll handle this old hunk of metal for ya!" Lifty asked as he spoke with an innocent tone to hide the greed of his words.

Lumpy scratched his head for a bit. "Oh, I don't know. But maybe you can ask her." he said, pointing towards the back seat of the twins shrugged at each other and walked over the back as Lumpy told.

"Geez! I thought he was really stupid but now he's talking to himself!" Lifty said, rolling his eyes.

When they reached the back seat, they noticed another tree friend sitting there as she held a boombox that was playing the music from earlier to her ears.

She was a dark green squirrel, who had light brown hair that brushed over her shoulders. On top of her head was a light green bow that looked like Giggles's bow but it was smaller. She was wearing nothing more than a light yellow skirt. Her neck was accented by a white collar that had a little black bow in the middle and a white cuff was wrapped around both of her wrists.

"Well, imagine that.." Lifty said before Shifty began to approach the girl. Her eyes were closed as she was bobbing her head to the music.

"Hey, lady-"

Shifty was cut off when the squirrel swung her left foot in the air, forcing him to duck down on the ground. he could hear a whacking sound along with Lifty yelping in pain. He got back up on his feet to find Lifty rubbing his eye while the squirrel smiled nervously as she put down the boombox and turning it off.

"Sorry about that! I thought you guys were the chauffeur." the squirrel chuckled nervously.

"What the heck's a cho..chop...chaffer...well, whatever that is?" Shifty asked.

"Ugh...I think my eye's starting to bleed." Lifty groaned as he pulled his paw away from his eye, revealing a light gray around it.

"You're eye's not "bleeding", Lifty." Shifty said. "Not if it's internal bleeding! That's probably it!" Lifty snapped, making Shifty smack his forehead once more.

The squirrel suddenly spoke up, "Now that you two are here, i'm looking for some new employees for my mansion."

"Mansion?" the twins said in unison.

"Yeah. It turns out, some of my last employees quit after I wouldn't give them a raise." The squirrel said once more,"Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Virgo, the most famous Electro-Swing DJ."

But that's when Shifty turned his head and crossed his arms.

"You can save that for later, missy! Me and my bro are looking for a easy way to earn some dough!" he barked.

Shifty began to open his mouth as if to say something else, but that's when he closed it with wide eyes that matched Lifty's.

"Did you say...famous?" He muttered.

"Well, yes." Virgo replied as she hopped out of the seat. She felt like giggling as she watched their jaws drop open like drawbridge. Their mouths were not nearly as wide as their eyes were.

"Plus, they pay while working for me's pretty fair too. Nothing like $100 per week never hurt anyone." Virgo rambled on. The moment she said that very sentence, Lifty and Shifty's eye's twitch a little. Virgo noticed their open jaws and propped them back in the mouths, returning them to normal.

"A hu..hundred bucks...per w-week?" Shifty stuttered with his twitching eyeballs.

"...One hundred big ones?" Lifty added. "...All that cash..." Shifty repeated.

"All that fortune...piles and piles of dough.." Lifty said again.

"...working for you...a DJ..." Shifty said, pointing his trembling paw to Virgo.

"Exactly!" Virgo chirped with a cheery expression,"So, what do you two say?" The raccoons quickly snapped out if their trance and look at Virgo with a confused look.

"Well, we got nothing to say...but..." Shifty's voice trailed off for a moment as he looked at Lifty and Lifty looked back at him.

"What?" Virgo asked the silent kleptomaniacs.

All they could do was remain silent and blink at the squirrel.

However, they were only silent for no more than five seconds before they crumbled down to their knees in front of Virgo with pleading faces. The raccoons both began bowing down to the squirrel as if she were some type of great empress.

"We're not worthy! We're not worthy!" Lifty and Shifty yelled as they kept bowing to her.

"My brother and I are nothing compared to your power!" Shifty sobbed with joyful tears flooding out of his eyes.

"We're useless! We're scum! We stink...like moldy cheese!" Lifty commented, choking up a bit.

All Virgo could do was giggle helplessly.

The only thing that was going on in all three of their heads was that nothing could ever go wrong!

~Yeah...right...like that was ever proven in history itself!~

ToonAngelStar17: That's chapter one! I know this looks a bit sloppy, but it'll get better in future chapters!

*Fun Fact* Electro Swing is a real genre of music!
