ToonAngelStar17: It is my greatest of honor to give to you, with all my love (and probable boredom) the sequel of my famous work, Stage Fright, Shm-age Fright! I would just be happy to thank all the people on this site who have supported me into making it!


Our story unfolds as our screen fades into a huge blue sky that was dotted with clouds. As music started to play in the background, a couple of orange leaves whizzed past the golden rays of the sparkling sun in a gentle breeze.

It was the middle of fall and it was only the day right before the eve of a certain holiday of October. The camera switches to a couple of trees that barely had any leaves and they shook in the powerful wind. The music became a bit louder as the title came into the screen and written in orange and black letters.

Happy Tree Friends present:

"Stage Fright, Shm-age Fright 2: Monster Mash"

Starring: Flippy

Featuring: Splendid, Soleil and Azalea

Almost there...

The camera starts to pan down onto our quaint little land of Happy Tree Town, home of all Tree Friends alike and it was only a few miles away from the city of Treeopolis, where fame and fortune is born.

But that town's another story to be told, right now we look at the town as a couple of bats screeched as flew in a V formation across the sky.

(Song #1: This Is Halloween from The Nightmare Before Christmas)

Boys and Girls of every age,

Would you like to see something strange?

Our scene switches to a busy sidewalk where Tree Friends were strolling along with shopping bags shoved in their paws. All the local stores and shopping malls were all decked in streamers and glowing Jack 'o lanterns were placed outside the doorsteps of houses that had lawns decked with scarecrows.

Come with us and you will see

This, our town of Halloween!

It then goes over Toothy and Cuddles, who were laughing as they began to wrap a giant tree with toilet paper. But that's when Pop saw them and he angrily shook his fist at their mischief. The two boys still laughed after they began to away from the tree.

This Is Halloween

This Is Halloween

Pumpkins scream in the dead of night

Meanwhile in a nearby costume shop, Petunia was trying on a sparkly witch costume while Giggles was putting on a fancy princess costume. Disco Bear came over and started to flirt with Giggles, only for her to punch him in the face.

This Is Halloween

This Is Halloween

Trick or treat 'till the neighbors gonna die of fright

Then everything switches to Lumpy as he was hanging a bunch of Christmas lights over his trailer, revealing that the rest of his trailer was covered in Christmas decor.

"Mm-hm." He said in satisfaction.

Sniffles, who was helping him just rolled his eyes.

The screen switches to Lifty and Shifty were escaping out of a store with bags of tasty candy and were being chased by The Mole, who ran the shop. He still ran until he stopped to scold a fire hydrant, since he was blind after all.

This Is Halloween

This Is Halloween

Halloween, Halloween

Halloween, Halloween!

It then shows Giggles, Cuddles, and Toothy as they were carving some pumpkins at a huge gazebo in the park.

Then all three of them got up and they started to sing.

Cuddles, Giggles, and Toothy: In this town we call home

Everyone hail to the pumpkin song

The camera starts to pan out and it shows that their friends, along with a bunch of generic tree friends in the middle of a large crowd in front of the gazebo.

All: La-La-la-la!

(Halloween!)

La-la-la-la-la

(Halloween)

La-la-la-la-la

(Halloween)

La-la-la! Whee!

The whole crowd began to cheer and applaud as they were one was jumping around as the music started to fade out in the process.

It was just a day away from the big day, a perfect time to get ready to celebrate the holiday that represents their immortality traits that are woven into the soil and the bodies of all Tree Friends alike.


"Alright now, do we got the streamers?"

"Check!" Petunia said, holding a bag full of streamers.

"Fog machine?" Handy continued as he pointed his nub towards Toothy.

"Check!" He replied. It turns out that Handy and he brought some of his friends along. Nutty, Flippy, Giggles, and Cuddles were hanging out in the park with Handy that day as they were creating some type of cool plan in store.

"Perfect!" The beaver said with a smile, " This is gonna be this year's best Hallow's Bash ever!"

"What's this "Hallow's Bash" thing about?"

Handy's ears twitched a little after hearing the strange voice. The others also looked up and they watched as a pair of snowy white wings were fluttering right over their heads. As a couple of feathers fell off, they could see that the wings were attached to the body of a familiar blue cat who landed onto the grassy ground with the greatest of ease. Landing down along with her was a dark pink cat with her dress billowing below her feet.

"Hey, Azalea!" Nutty said.

"Long time, no see for you too!" She replied before giving Nutty a hug. Soleil laughed a little right after she was caught in a girl hug between Petunia and Giggles.

"Now that you're here, maybe you can help us with the plans for Hallow's Bash." Flippy said.

"Hallow's Bash?" Asked a content Soleil.

"Oh, it's a huge party that our town holds every Halloween night to celebrate the bright side of ghouls and goblins and stuff."

"Gee, thanks for the spoiler alert." Giggles muttered, glaring a little at Cuddles.

"I didn't mean it..."

Soleil laughed as she slapped her knee in the process. "That's a good one, man!" She giggled right before snapping her fingers at him.

But a giant thin wave of dark yellow lightning shot out from her paw as she snapped, causing it to launch its way straight for a nearby tree.

Its powerful blast caused the tree to get knocked down and Flippy yelped as he dodged the tree's gigantic fall. It only fell down a few feet away from him.

Flippy was lying down on the ground, whimpering as he covered his head. But that was when the sound of bombs exploding ran through his ears. He remembered everything, every little thing the the horrid days during his time spent at the W.A.R. The poor bear kept whimpering from the terrifying vision of the tiger soldiers penetrating the bodies of his allies full of lead with their bullets to the roar of fighter jets and the blazing fires burning his eyes.

"Oh no..."

Those were the last words he said before..he...became to appear.

Back with Soleil, she was busy talking to Petunia.

"No, I think that a tsundere is very different from a kuudere."

"How so? They're both uptight in the beginning then they get all nice to you the end." Replied the skunk.

"Well, I guess you make a pretty good point. Even if one of them is more famous than the other one." Soleil said, shrugging her shoulders. But their conversation was disrupted by the shrill sound of a loud "splat' coming from far away.

That was when Nutty and Toothy ran over, hiding behind Petunia as they were whimpering in fear.

"What's up with you guys?" Soleil asked.

The two of them just pointed to the right, where she saw a sight that made her jaw drop.

Cuddles's ears were chopped off and they were laying on the ground in a pair of small puddles of blood. His legs were also severed along with his chest being gutted open like a pig. Giggles's head had been snapped off and it was just sitting next to her decapitated body.

Handy was lying face flat on the ground when a figure was tearing his small intestines out between his bottom half and his upper half.

That figure who was causing all the macabre was no other than the most feared of Tree Friends.

It was Flipqy, Flippy's demented alter ego. Ever since the destruction of W.A.R, he has been terrorizing the lives of any one he spotted no matter what the cause.

"Hey! Hey, you!" Soleil shouted, angered from the sight of her friends being mauled.

Flipqy turned around just as he heard her speak. The shimmer of his dark yellow eyes only became brighter as he let out a low growl of hatred.

"Are you out of your mi-"

Soleil was stopped right in the middle of her words when he pounced onto the cat, forcing her to fall on her knees when he coiled his arm around her throat.

He tighten the force of his arm, causing her to choke. She tried to reach up her arms and remove him but it was too strong for her lady-like grip. The bear's fang-like teeth were cluttered into a insane smirk as he raised his bowie knife right above Soleil's skull, ready to slam it down and impale all the way through her skull and ram it in her brain.

"Quit squirming around, whiskers! It's easier for me to hit a sitting target!" Flipqy hissed in his raspy tone, "Don't make me toss you into a Chinese restaurant!"

"Good, cause I'd kill for for some Chinese food right now."

"Wait...what?"

Soleil continued, "I mean, I'm not a sushi person but I think sweet and sour pork is great."

Flipqy was obviously looking at her with a confused look on his face. He blinked a couple fo times right before shaking his head, causing his yellow eyes to turn back to his normal pac-man pupils. He took his arm off her neck and she began to stand back up while dusting off the dirt on her dress.

"Man..what the heck just happened?.." Flippy muttered, rubbing the side of his forehead.

But that was when Soleil gave him an ticked off glare.

"Hey, Soleil. You feeling alright?"

Those words made her eye twitch from the fact he had attacked her just a few seconds ago.

She swiftly turned around and launched her left fist into his stomach within a powerful punch. The way Flippy crumpled to the ground on his knees was a scene that made Azalea, who was hiding along with the remaining residents, cringe a little.

Toothy also cringed in shock but Nutty and Petunia were trying really hard not to laugh however.

"What was that for!?" Whimpered Flippy as he clutched his aching middle.

Soleil just put her paws in her hips and looked down at him like it was nothing at all.

"Don't say that like you know what's going on!"

Flippy turned around, only to find the corpses of his three friends sprawled from nearby, feeling his ears droop from realizing what Soleil had said.

"Oh, no...not again!" The bear groaned slightly.

The bear looked back at Soleil, who still looked ready to rip his face off or something else very gruesome she would do to him.

"Look, I can explain everything!" Flippy said.

But judging by Soleil's fury, she was not taking his apology quite well. Her snowy wings sprouted from her back as they spread out firmly in a threatening stance.

"No need to explain! You just tried to kill me, you insensitive jerk!"

Suddenly, Flippy yelped when her eyes transformed into a pair of empty pools of blazing dark green light, making her eyes look like tiny lanterns that blasted a powerful ray.

"For such commitment to the sin of wrath, a curse must be placed upon you for your cruel impurity!" Soleil continued. She raised her paws high up to the heavens, her gloves shooting a ray of light that morphed into a large gray cloud that grew bigger and bigger until it was large enough to shroud and cover nobody but herself and Flippy. A massive gust of wind began to blow, making the skirt of Soleil's dress to flap gently in its strong breeze.

"It's a shame, really. I am the daughter of the gods and this is the welcome I get from you? You're a freaking soldier! A soldier for grandfather Zeus's sake!"

"Um, aren't you taking this a little too far?" Flippy asked.

"SILENCE, FELLOW IMMORTAL! I'VE NEVER BEEN SO FURIOUS WITH THOSE LIKE YOU!" The dark cat screamed at the top of her lungs, the glow of her eyes becoming even brighter than ever in a way that could rival the sun.

Soleil only continued to lay her icy stare upon Flippy while soft thunder was starting to rumble around the two of them.

She raised her left arm up right before pointing it down towards the cowering military bear and she began to speak in the most fearsome of voices that carried an elaborate yet frightening echo that continued to warble in the background.

"From this day forth," Soleil bellowed furiously, "You and everybody from the peers who crave to lend you their guidance to the very last of the peasants that live in this wealthy suburbia where I, Soleil of The Powerful Loki, doth reside, shall be thrust and sealed for all eternity inside the gates of a infinite plethora of song and dance!"

"So...you mean like a musical?"

"No kidding, Sherlock!"

That was when she quickly snapped her fingers, only for the dark cloud to vanish and the thunder to cease along with the glow in her eyes.

Everything...well..looked pretty much back to normal.

"Hey, nothing's happening!" Nutty said, walking out after hiding behind Petunia along with Toothy doing the same.

"Of course nothing has happened." Soleil replied with a wild smirk on her face, "That's because the curse...has just begun..."

Flippy carefully got back up, due to his stomach being healed already. "Hang on a second, why would you curse me with a musical in the first place?" The bear asked as Azalea, who flew over to him with her wings, her paws on her hips.

"Well, what did you expect from a curse?" She said "Man-eating monster trucks? Giant zombie attacks? Chicken wings and hot fudge covered in lava raining down from the sky?"

"Azalea's got a point with that one.." Toothy added.

"I was kinda hoping for that last part..." Nutty said, both the twin sisters looking at him in confusion.

Flippy just rolled his eyes from his remark and he looked back to Soleil, who gave him a quirky look that read "You mad, bro?" all over it.

"Don't see anything weird or freaky voodoo junk going on now. I'm really terrified, Soleil..."

"Still wouldn't believe me yet, do you? Perhaps you can tell it to that giant spotlight above your head."

"Giant spotlight?" Flippy scoffed, "What spotlight?"

Soleil began to point up at the sky while her other arm rested on her hip. Flippy also looked up and suddenly, the brightness of the daytime had dimmed down like a giant shadow was hovering over the town. Everything seemed pitch black but not all the way dark. He, Soleil, and everyone were the only visible sight until a bright beam of light began to shine all over nothing but Flippy and the small area around him.

That beam of light was actually a spotlight. Flippy could tell as his eyes slowly looked around to noticed what Soleil meant to imply.

"..Oh, right..."

"I'm afraid that I have to go now.." Soleil continued to the bear, giggling as so mischievously.

"You have to go? But why? The Hallow's Bash is tomorrow!"

"Just remember this, only I know when the curse shall have ended."

The cat then snapped her fingers once again and she was suddenly engulfed inside a cloud of neon purple smoke.

"What?! Wait, Soleil! " Flippy yelped. He made a mad dash to the spot where she stood, the hidden spotlight still hovering steadily above him. But Soleil had already vanished as his arm reached out to her and it only sliced through the smoke's thick haze until it had finally faded.

He turned around and he saw that Petunia, Toothy and Nutty were standing close by while sharing another huge spotlight big enough to fit them all and Azalea was also standing in a spotlight of her own.

"Forgive my sister, Flippy. She's a bit of a diva.." Azalea said with a nervous laugh.

"Well, this is a musical..er..musical curse that is." Petunia added, "So let's just enjoy it while we can."

"Yeah, that's gonna be a problem.." Flippy replied.

"Why's that?"

"That's a funny thing you should ask me, Azalea."

Flippy then looked up at the darkened sky while the blue cat was looking at him like he had gone crazy

"~Song Cue!" He called.

Suddenly, a blast of soft jazz-like music was starting to play in the was strange is that their were no instruments anywhere to be seen.

"Where the heck is that coming from?" Azalea asked to Nutty, who only shrugged.

Just like that, Flippy had started to sing.

(Song #2: I Got No Rhyme from My Gym Partner's A Monkey*)

Flippy: I got no rhyme

And no sense of rhythm

I'm out of step and I don't belong!

He began to tuck his arms in the pockets of his cameo jacket as he kept on singing.

Cause when I try to stick my head in,

I just ruin every...wallet

Flippy took one of his arms out and held up a wallet to show proof.

"I think you mean to say song." Azalea said with a concerned look, "Song rhymes with belong, Flippy."

"Oh, it does?" He asked, tossing the wallet off-screen, "I wouldn't know because.."

He paused right before he went back to singing. The bear even managed to walk a couple steps across the dim scenery.

Flippy: I got no rhyme

And not sense of rhythm

I'm out of step and I really can't tell!

I don't know why I'm discombobulated

It should be easy as ringing a...tape dispenser

When he sung "tape", the image of a tape dispenser was displayed in the back ground.

Azalea was now standing right next to him, feeling rather annoyed by now.

"Ringing a bell! Bell rhymes with tell!" She said as the the image now changed into a giant church bell right before it vanished off of the screen. Flippy just crossed his arms at her in a bothered type of way.

"Well, why don't you show a little more, Azalea? Because you know.."

That's when Petunia, Toothy, and Nutty were standing near Flippy, dressed up as a classic 50's styled doo-wop chorus as they were standing together in individual spotlights.

Nutty, Petunia and Toothy: He's got no rhyme

And no sense of rhythm

That's why the guy just won't sing along!

Azalea just groaned as she just rolled her eyes.

His every attempt is a major disaster

that just ruins every..planet

On "planet" Toothy even held up a drawing of a planet on a sheet of paper.

"Song! Song rhymes with along, not planet!" Azalea added, "Planet? Where are you coming up with this stuff?!"

All three of them groaned while Flippy was staring to walk across the background.

Flippy: It's really quite a pickle that I'm in

He stopped when she saw that Azalea was blocking his way, making him look at her with a nervous smile.

This is a race I'm bound to lose, because I can't seem to..potato

"Win!" She shouted.

Flippy: I got no rhyme

And no sense of rhythm

It's catastrophic I'm sure that you've heard!

I don't know why I don't have a reason

I never can come up with a...motorcycle

The scene pans out to show that Azalea was suddenly sitting on top of a motorcycle that came out of nowhere.

"Word!" She shouted.

"If you say so." Flippy said right before the motorcycle suddenly began drive across the scree. Azalea yelped as she held on to the handlebars and the screen switches back to Petunia, Nutty, and Toothy.

Nutty, Petunia and Toothy: There's no explanation for his crime

~Doo wop, Doo wop~

He wished us in this musical

And has no sense of..firetruck

It shows that Azalea was now standing on top of a giant firetruck as she was giving all of them another annoyed look.

"Time...or is it rhyme.." She said.

"See? It's hard!" Flippy added.

Flippy: I got no rhyme

And no sense of rhythm

I hear the music and I don't stand a chance!

'Cause I can't sing and I'm not a hoofer

Just see what happens when I try to...spasm

Suddenly, Flippy broke out into doing the robot dance as the tune of Steve Aoki's "Boneless" played briefly in the background.

"Um..I think you mean dance.." Said Azalea, who had just got off the truck.

"No, actually spasm's the right word for what I'm doing." Flippy said, "Because.."

Flippy: I got no rhyme

And no sense of rhythm

I guess it's time I take my words back

Azalea, along with Nutty, Toothy, and Petunia were just looking at him like he was lying about what he was saying.

We'll all be fine and right back to normal

Soon as I find that magical...mouse

That was when all the spotlights suddenly vanished and the sky was back to a bright and sunny hue that returned the whole town back to how it looked from before.

Not only that, but Soleil had also come back but she was looking really furious.

"I'm a cat, you idiot!" She shouted, "Why kind of person would think of such a thought?"

"Actually," Flippy replied, "I kinda thought you really were a mouse at first.."

"You did WHAT?!"

Flppy thought real quick right before he took a dime out of his pocket and he handed it in front of Soleil, who was looking at it in confusion.

"Here, buy yourself something..um..magical.."

But she just snatched the dime out of his paw, only to toss it and it even hit Flippy in the eye. "Hey! What the heck?!" He said with a slight whine as he rubbed his sore eyeball. All that Soleil did was simply glare at him in disgust right before she started to sing.

Soleil: Sorry, but I can't accept your dime!

The spell remains in full effect until your wrongs are right!

Everybody else just groaned in annoyance from what Soleil said before she snapped her fingers, causing the entire screen to be covered in dozens of white sparkles. When all the sparkles vanished, the entire scene was now taking place on an elaborate stage where all of them except Soleil were dancing about in a huge can-can line while they were all dressed up in glittery golden tuxedos and matching top hats like in a broadway show.

All: He's got no rhyme

And no sense of rhythm

And now it looks like the song never ends!

Then Flippy began to stand in front of the stage while wearing a tux and hat similar to the others but it was light green.

Flippy: If I can't learn to rewrite the pages

It seems I'll be losing my...couches

"FRIENDS!" The other screamed.

"Sorry, my bad. force of habit..." Flippy laughed nervously as the music began to end.

"This is gonna be interesting.." Petunia groaned.

"I'm just worried about what happens in act two.." Nutty added, tossing his hat to the side. "This ain't gonna end well..." Azalea groaned. Then a giant pair of red curtains, like you see in a show, fell across and covered up the whole screen.

"Well, it's show business for you." Flippy's voice said from behind the curtain.

That was just one of the crazy events that were soon to happen. It was only not long before things take a scary turn of events this year with more adventure, more drama and even more singing..well...mostly the singing part.


ToonAngelStar17: Happy early Halloween, everyone! I also want to tell you that's there's gonna be more songs, more of everything!

Also there's fact from the Stage Fright, Shm-age Fright: The gag where the tree friends shout "Song Cue" right before the song is a joke from the album, 'White Knuckle Soarin'"

I also want to give a thank-you to HTFfan, Carmelita01, and Dtksgirl for helping me build up enough insperation to make this.
