Chapter 1: Staff Meeting

Not many people knew this, but when kids, babies, adults, or even the elderly weren't around in a room, toys can move and have their own lives, but in the history of toys, there hasn't been one toy that came to life in front of a human being, if that happened, it would be disastrous for not only the toys but for the humans as well.

"Okay, everyone! Coast is clear!" Sherman then said outloud.

Then, more and more toys started to independently move by theirselves, such as the RC toy, a Mr. Krabs squeaky toy, ETC.

Gumball then proceeded to sit up angrily, he then literally lost his parts like a toy part, but he could reattach it with ease. He doesn't like the fact that he gets teethed on.

"Ages 3 and up! Ages 3 and Up! It says so on my box, I can't just be babysitting prince drool!" Gumball ranted as he spoke like a manly middle class New England accent.

It turns out that toys have a secret life of their own, they can move and think independently. Every single toy were going about their daily lives. It was another average day of the life of Trent Cooper's toys. And 2002 seems like a good year so far. The toys were going about their daily lives, with mini firefighters placing theirselves back on the seats of the toy firetruck, Gene was getting his change back inside him.

Gene has tan skin like the rest of the family and is also a little chubby. He wears a yellow shirt, blue shorts, and red All-Star Converse sneakers. He often wears a burger costume.

Gumball rearranged his face a bit.

"Hey, Gene, check it out! I'm Picasso!" Gumball said, referring to his rearranged face.

"I don't get it." Gene replied as he spoke in a voice of a tough muscle man, walking away, leaving behind a slightly annoyed Gumball.

"You uncultured burger boy!" Gumball shouted, then he said to something else, "What are you looking at, you hockey puck?"

Turns out that Gumball was talking to a Hockey Puck with arms and legs, the puck shrugged.

Meanwhile at the bed, Sherman was talking to a Risk board game part, the general.

"So, uh, have you seen Spongebob, General?" Sherman asked.

"Sir, no, sir!" General then said, saluting.

"Okay, alright, at ease." Sherman replied, then he jumped down and looked around. "Hey, uh...Spongebob?"

"Right here, Sherman." Spongebob then said, getting out a SNES controller. "I'm ready for Tecmo Super Bowl! Wanna be Dallas this time?"

The sponge slinky grins as he turns on the SNES. He and Sherman always enjoyed playing Tecmo Super Bowl.

"Not right now, Spongebob." Sherman replied, not interested.

"Oh, you wanna be New York, I understand." Spongebob then said.

"I'm sorry, Spongebob, but there's some bad news I recently got." Sherman said, stressed.

"BAD NEWS?!" Spongebob shouted, then, everyone stopped in their tracks, and then Sherman face palmed himself.

"Listen, get everyone together for a meeting, and be happy about it." Sherman said.

"Alright." Spongebob said.

"Be happy!" Sherman firmly said, 3 toys were eavesdropping. They decided to get the podium ready.

Sherman looked over and saw his clipboard, then, Toothless stopped by and roared at him, hoping to frighten him, Sherman wasn't too surprised to see him.

"Hey, how's it going, Toothless?" Sherman replied.

Toothless then said, worriedly, "Were you scared? Tell me the honest truth."

"I was close to being scared." Sherman then said, grabbing his clipboard, the 2 walked and talked.

"You know, I've been practicing, but I'm still struggling to work on this scare tactic. Maybe I should practice scaring the fruits." Toothless then said.

Then, someone grabbed Sherman and lured him to the indicated spot, Sherman was grabbed by Mabel, who was smiling at him. Sherman wouldn't admit it, but he was in love with Mabel ever since Trent got Sherman as a Christmas gift when Trent was in Kindergarten.

"Oh, uh, hey, Mabel." Sherman then said, nervously.

"Hi, Sherman, thanks for saving Waddles back there. I appreciate it." Mabel then said, speaking like a beautiful secretary at work.

"Well, it was nothing, really." Sherman then said, rubbing his neck.

"Well, how does this idea sound, what do you say I get someone else to watch Waddles tonight so we can be alone together?" Mabel swoonfully said.

"Oh, right." Sherman chuckled, blushingly.

"Well, let me know. I'm only a few blocks away." Mabel then said, walking past a stack of blocks, then, Sherman noticed the podium was ready. He ran up to the podium, and then, the karaoke toy machine lented him a microphone.

Just as Sherman was about to speak into the microphone, feedback was heard.

"Hey, do me a favor, and step a few inches away." Sherman said, then the karaoke toy stepped back.

He then spoke into the microphone, "Hello, can everyone hear me?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Hello, everyone! Now, let's get to business. Does everyone have a moving buddy?" Sherman spoke into the microphone.

Everyone was confused, why would anyone need a buddy during the big move? Sherman and Gumball have kind of like a stereotypical co-worker relationship, Sherman is like the employee that gets more praise and Gumball is like the co-worker that's unappreciated at work.

"I didn't even know if we needed one." Toothless then replied, confused.

"Why do we need a moving buddy?" Gene asked in disbelief from a window sill. "Surely you can't be serious!"

"Do we have to hold hands?" Gumball jokingly said, holding one of his own arms up, prompting the other toys to laugh as well.

"Hey, this is not funny, Gumball. You think it's a big joke," Sherman then said, "Well, It won't be funny once you get left behind. I don't wanna leave anyone behind for the big move, so if you don't have one, get one! Anyway, last Tuesday night's Movie night was perhaps the biggest success, and I'd like to thank Spelling Bee for that, thank you, Spelling Bee."

Sherman was talking to a toy bumblebee, the insect toy replied in a robotic voice, "You're welcome."

Then Sherman took a look at his clipboard and then said, "Oh, and one minor note here, Trent's birthday party has been moved to today. Next thing..."

Then, much to Sherman's surprise, all of the toys panicked.

"What do you mean the party's today?! His birthday's not until next week!" Toothless panicked.

"What's goin' on down there, has Trent's mom lost her mind?" Gene ranted.

"Well, obviously, Trent's mom and dad want the party to happen before the big move!" Sherman said, rolling his eyes. "I'm not worried, you shouldn't be either!"

"Easy for you to say! Yeah, you've been Trent's favorite since Kindergarten." Gumball complained.

"C'mon, guys. Sherman said it's all right and that's good enough for me." As Spongebob continues, Gumball rolls his eyes then he takes his mouth up and holds it to his own butt. Some of the toys snicker at this, especially the Spelling Bee who said his words in the display screen quietly.

Spongebob didn't notice as he continued, "Sherman is always right and there is no reason he should be wrong now!"

"Guys, I honestly don't believe this. Every single birthday and Christmas, you always behave like this!" Sherman said in annoyance and disbelief.

"What if Trent gets another Dragon, an alpha? I don't think I can take that type of rejection!" Toothless then said.

"Woah, this is Trent we're talking about, no one's getting replaced. It doesn't matter how much he plays with us," Sherman assuredly said, as he stepped down from the podium, only to see the Microphone isn't going anywhere. The karaoke toy then stepped closer to Sherman. Sherman then said, "What matters is that we're here for Trent when he needs us, that's what toys were made for, right?"

The toys knew that Sherman had a point. Being a toy means being there for your kid no matter what.

"Sorry to be a Benedict Burger, but..." Gene then said, he then shouted, "THEY'RE HERE! BIRTHDAY GUESTS AT 3 O'CLOCK!"

Soon, everyone became alarmed, and so did Sherman, but Sherman was concerned about the toys panicking, which they did.

"Stay calm everyone!" Sherman then said, too late, all the toys ran up to the window sill. Sherman looked at a toy. He wears a light brown cap, has light peach fair skin, and buck teeth, similar to those of a beaver. He's stocky and wears dark brown shoes, beige shorts and a jade green-ish gray shirt with a big red shirt with a dinosaur on the front. He also has a double chin. He has short light brown hair. His neck is wider than his head, or so it appears. It seems to be obscured by his double chin

"Man, oh man. Look at those presents." said Gene, shaking his head in concern.

"Move it! I can't see!" said Gmball in annoyance. When no one moved to let him see, the cat sighs and have to pulls his eyes out so he could hold them out to look over the toys. As the toys continued to watch, kids arrived bringing presents for the birthday boy. Trent was a popular kid at his school, however, despite his popularity, he did have a teacher he hated, Chris McLean.

"Yes sir, we're next year's yard sale for next year." A concerned Gene said.

"Does anyone see any Medieval time themed gifts?" Toothless whimpered, not wanting to look

"They are all in boxes, Toothless, you moron!"

Toothless continues looking out the window. He begins to get scared, as is the other toys, as more boxes keep coming, more bigger than the last.

"Oh no! The boxes, they are getting bigger!" Toothless yelped.

"Wait just a second, there's a small one!" SpongeBob pointed to a box held by a child.

Of course, the box only looks small at first. As the kid turns, the toys scream in terror. The thing is four feet long! This could be a bad sign for everyone.

"We're doomed!" Toothless panicked.

"Alright, already!" Sherman yelled in anger. "What if I told you that I'm going to get the Risk army down there? Would it make a significant difference?"

"Not significant, but it would calm us down." Toothless replied, relieved.

"Great, just keep yourself together." Sherman said, walking towards the Risk game pieces.

"One step ahead of you!" Gumball then said.
