Note: Hello, all, it's July, the hottest month of the year and a time where some fans do Christmas projects when they don't feel like waiting until December to get them done. This is a project I've still been wanting to do this for so long. This is a short parody fic of the every Seuss fan's beloved holiday classic, The Grinch, taking place in the Winnie the Pooh franchise. I've been inspired by the Nicktoons commercial spoofing the Grinch (with Angelica from Rugrats in the title role), as well as the opening of the Doug Christmas special, "Doug's Secret Christmas", where it spoofed the Grinch (having Roger Klotz in the role), to do this. I was thinking, "what if Disney decided to have Pooh characters spoof the Grinch story?" So, I thought I could do one myself.

Stan and Heff will be sharing the role of the Grinch, and most of the good animal characters from the Pooh franchise will be in the role of the whos, with Kessie in the role of Cindy Lou-Who, and Francisco the Cat, an OC belonging to a friend of mine who is not on this website, is in the role of Max.

So, I own nothing. The story belongs to Dr. Seuss and the Pooh characters belong to Disney and A.A. Milne, with one belonging to my friend, who will remain nameless.

Now, to save time and pressure on the brain, I will be excluding a spoof of the famous "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch" song. My apologies to all fans of the song, I myself am one as well, but I thought it'd save time if I just spoofed the story. Hope you all understand. Maybe I could remake the story when there's more time, and add a song in there.

Well, we might as well sit down and read, shall we?

"How Stan and Heff Stole Christmas"

Our story begins in the Hundred Acre Wood. It was Christmas time, and every animal inhabitant of the Hundred Acre Wood was getting ready for the big day. You see, it was Christmas Eve, and they were all getting some last-minute details finished before the big day: Christmas Day. In one particular house...tree, whichever you prefer, a bear named Winnie the Pooh was having a tree-trimming party, with guests to arrive soon.

During this time, Pooh, who was yellowish and had a red t-shirt and a green scarf, was assisted by a young bluebird named Kessie, a white puppy named Buster, and a tiger named Tigger, who wore a teal scarf.

A song started, with Kessie taking two candy cane decorations out of the decoration box and placing them on the mantle, as she began to sing.

Kessie: Christmas comes tomorrow
And we can hardly wait

Tigger then shook a present he had with joy.

Tigger: For Santy bringing presents

Pooh came, carrying a tray full of gingerbread men, fresh from the oven.

Pooh: Christmas dinner on my plate
Yum!

Kessie hanged a golden round ornament on the curtain rod, before swinging the ornament a bit.

Kessie: The jingle bells

As Pooh sang the next line, he placed the tray down on a counter.

Pooh: And Christmas smells

Tigger grabbed one of the gingerbread men, taking a bite as he sang next.

Tigger: And cookies tasting great

Tigger then hung up a wreath on the door, as all three sang next.

Trio: Christmas comes tomorrow
And we can hardly wait

At the house of a small pig named Piglet, he was getting ready for Christmas as well, as he swept around the house with his broom.

Piglet: I'm cleaning every corner
And dusting every chair

Then, a yellow-green rabbit named Rabbit came holding out two plates of vegetables, setting them down.

Rabbit: I've got artichokes for Santa
And, oh yes, carrots for his deer

A bit later, the two came out of Piglet's house, each carrying a small load of presents, as they headed to Pooh's house.

Rabbit: With decorations,
Celebrations

Piglet: All for Sainty Nick

Both: Christmas comes tomorrow

Piglet: Oh, I

Both: Hope it gets here quick

With a gloomy grayish-blue donkey named Eeyore, he was trying to decorate his house of sticks, with a star made of sticks.

Eeyore: Don't need to be a bother
I won't ask Santa twice
But if he happens to be coming
A present would be nice

Of course, a wind came and blew Eeyore's house and star down, much to his disappointment, but his house always gets knocked down, so that's no surprise. He sighed as he saw Piglet and Rabbit walking by, before following them. At another tree, a small brown joey named Roo, who wore a blue t-shirt, played with a car ornament as he sang.

Roo: I'm wishing for a race car

How he was able to touch the car ornament hanging on the door, was thanks to his friend, a young lavender elephant-like creature (or heffalump) named Heffridge Trumpler Brompet "Lumpy" Heffalump IV, lifting him with his trunk.

Lumpy: A new kite would be neat

They then saw Roo's mother, a kangaroo named Kanga get out a tray of Christmas cookies, fresh from the oven, on a table.

Roo: I hope Santa got our letters

The two prepared to grab some cookies, but Kanga chuckled a bit.

Kanga: They're still too hot to eat

Outside, Rabbit, Piglet and Eeyore were passing by, when Kanga, Roo and Lumpy, now donned with hats and scarfs, joined them. Kanga carried a basket of treats along with her.

Kanga: With stockings hung,

Eeyore: And carols sung,

Lumpy: And tons and tons of snow

Roo: Christmas comes tomorrow

Group: And there's just one night to go

Back at Pooh's house, Tigger peeked out the window, waiting for the others to arrive.

Tigger: Rein-y-deer are flyin'
Santa won't be here 'til dark

Kessie: But we'll be ready waiting
She then turned to Buster, asking, "Right, Buster?"

Buster replied with a "Bark bark bark!" Of course, he means 'yes' when he says that. Then, they heard a small bell ringing, as Pooh came to his door and opened it up, to let the others, who have just arrived, in.

Pooh: It's Christmas time

Lumpy: The bestest time

Piglet: A joyous time

Tigger: (as he shakes a present) A toy-ous time

He placed the present onto the pile of presents, as they all came to the finish of their song.

All: It's Christmas time and we can't wait

As the song ended, the narrator, who had the voice of Sir Michael Caine spoke.

"Every animal in the Hundred Acre Wood liked Christmas a lot
But Stan Woozle and Heff Heffalump, the two nuisances of the hundred acres, did not"

Far on the other edges of the Hundred Acre Wood, somewhere in Heffalump Hollow, the places where all heffalumps roam, there was one cave where two figures lived. This place was the one place everyone did their best to steer clear of, for two reasons. One is because the two are nuisances of the Hundred Acre Wood who always come up with schemes to steal the others of their honey for themselves, though each scheme ends up ultimately failing, and the other was because they've been known to hate Christmas, the one holiday everyone else loves.

We see the two animals glaring at us readers, as they stood out of their cave. The first was a gray-furred weasel (or "woozle") with yellow eyes, light gray fur on his muzzle and chest area, black nose, and with one fang sticking out. He wore a red-brown cap, a red bowtie with white polka dots, a yellow vest, blue pants and black shoes. He was known as Stan Woozle.

The second was a big fat orange heffalump with yellow in the inside of his ears, and on his tummy. He had one bucktooth sticking out, and wore only a black vest. He was known as Heff Heffalump, Stan's right-hand heffalump.

"Yes, they've always hated it, will in the future, and do so now.
But don't ask me for the answer, no one quite knows just how.
Could be perhaps their clothes were on too tight"

The two gave their clothes a bit of a tug, trying to loosen them a bit, but they were still too tight, as our storyteller suggested.

(Flashback)

We go back to a day when the two fought each-other, though in a comical manner, of course.

"It could be perhaps that they always got in a fight"

(End of Flashback)

In the present time, Stan and Heff frowned at us once more, not happy.

"But I think..."

Then Stan interrupted the narrator, snapping, "Hey, ya mook! The likely reason's obvious! We've never ever managed to steal any honey just for us!" He continued to rant on, saying (in rhyme), "And I would not dare betray the woozle code and share with those goodie-goodies...and not even that bear! Oooohhh, on him I'd love to get my hands, for constantly butting in and foiling all our honey-nabbing plans!"

Yes, no matter how many plans Stan and Heff have come up with to steal all the honey, Pooh and his friends have always managed to foil them, and it made the hatred of the two towards the good guys, mostly Stan's hatred, grow more. Also, they would never share, because it's in the nature of Woozles and Heffalumps (except for Lumpy's family and friends) to steal honey and Stan refuses to break his belief.

Stan continued, "And the fact that it is Christmas just emphasizes the fact that we will not, around this time of the year, get that golden gooey snack!"

Then Heff said, "Duh, but Stan, I think there's one little detail that you missed: we can't even have honey this time of year, because we're on Santa's naughty list!"

Stan replied in annoyance, "You think I don't know that, bubble-brain?! That is the #1 reason why I say "humbug" to this appalling season! It's in our nature to steal honey, but does HE understand?"

Heff scratched his head, saying, trying to think of a good answer, "Duh..."

But Stan answered for him, saying, "No he does not! No comprendo, my dim-witted friend!"

Then the woozle pulled out a picture of all the good animals from the Hundred Acre Wood together, but with facial hair and devil horns drawn on them by the foes, showing their hate for them. The narrator spoke, "So as the two glared at a picture of the animals they despised and scorned, Stan declared."

Stan said, "Ah yes, I can just imagine all that will occur with them the very next morn."

(Daydream)

We see a daydream, predicting what will happen in the next morning, as we saw all the good animals of the Hundred Acre Wood unwrapping presents and opening their stockings and cheering for all the stuff they got, showing everyone.

As all this happened, Stan's voice explained, "Once again, they'll wake up and find many presents and treats that Fat Boy has left them, while we get just coal, misery, and back-aches from slipping on sleet."

We saw the two walking out of the cave angrily and miserably, each holding lumps of coal, before slipping on the icy ground, covered in sleet that had fallen, before they fell on their backs very heard. The two groaned in pain.

Back with the other animals, they were somewhere having a big Christmas party, celebrating with all their presents and treats received from Santa, while Stan's voice continued, "Then, they'll have a big Christmas get-together, in the Hundred Acre Woods, and they'll boast about the rewards for their big hearts: their received Christmas goods!"

The narrator then spoke, "They would celebrate their good deeds each year, to the villains' worry. And as annually, this activity increases the woozle's fury."

(End of Daydream)

Stan explained, "Then, there's something else that will come tomorrow. They'll sit down for a Christmas feast and join for a big Yuletide carol to tomorrow."

Heff then spoke, "Duh, you know, Stan. I bet if we were Santa Claus, we would mistreat those goodie-goodies."

The narrator said, "As Stan heard Heff, he paused." Stan did pause, wondering if his sidekick was, for once, onto something brilliant. "Could it be? In Stan's very own prime, has his lackey actually given a smart possibility this time? A Christmas miracle, it must be. Then the woozle began to smile. A smile came from he." Stan started to smile, which was very rare.

"That's it!" Stan said eagerly.

"Stan exclaimed."

"Heff, my for-once inspiration, my muse, you've just fed my head with a new honey-stealing scheme in which we cannot lose!"

Then, Stan grinned wickedly, with Heff grinning evilly as well, though not knowing why, since he's not very intelligent. The narrator said, "It was then the two got an idea, a fiendish idea. Stan, and eventually Heff, got a magnificently despicable idea."

A while later, Stan and Heff were working on something, as the narrator continued, "It took a while for Heff to memorize the plan, due to his miniscule IQ, and after discussing the plan over and over, he finally got it through. Tonight, while our Hundred Acre Wood friends are all snug in their beds, with visions of Christmas goodies dancing in their heads, the two will sneak into each and everyone's houses and steal all their honey. Steal honey from every animal, from the bear to the Tigger to the bunny."

Stan said, as it looked he was sewing some clothing with a sewing machine, "First thing is first of the plan."

The narrator said, "Said the woozle brute."

"We'll make this fast Santa Claus hat and suit."

As Stan snickered, the narrator continued, "He snickered so sinisterly, for this plan made him all a-tingle."

"With this coat and this hat, I'll look just like Kris Kringle."

"I thought you were dressing up as Santa." Heff said stupidly.

Stan groaned with irritation, "Same person, cucumber-brain!" Why must his dumb partner keep forgetting that Santa has more than one name?!

"Oh yeah, I keep forgetting."

The woozle said sarcastically, "Oh, ya don't say!"

The narrator said, "But then Heff objected."

Heff said, "Duh, say, why can't I be Santa? I'd fit the role great, on account of my immense and enormous weight."

The woozle replied, "That's true."

The narrator said, "Said Stan."

"But I totally refuse to wear antlers, fake ears or curly, uncomfortable elf shoes! Plus, they're not actually expecting to see us. They're just expecting gifts and treats left in their house, without a single fuss. But don't worry, you can be Santa's assistant elf." Heff then looked unsure.

"Heff was unsure about it; he didn't like THAT role himself! Nevertheless, the job must be done to set forth that very night, and ruin the animals' festive yuletide fun."

(End of Chapter 1)

The parody of this Seuss-y Christmas classic has begun. Will Stan and Heff succeed in ruining Pooh and friends' Christmas and taking all their honey? Let's read on!

The next chapter is when they find a cat named Francisco, force him to be their reindeer, and they set out to the Hundred Acre Wood on their little spree.

The song the Pooh characters sang is "Christmas Comes Tomorrow" from My Friends Tigger & Pooh: Super Sleuth Christmas Movie, with Kessie singing Darby's parts, since all the human characters are absent in this story.
