In the midst of December, when the air was crisp and a wintry charm in the heart of Disney's Hollywood Studios underwent a breathtaking transformation. T'was the season of winter as the park adorned itself with Christmas decorations. When the golden sun began to dip below the horizon, the skies started to change into hues ranging from soft pinks to hues of tangerine, casting a gentle glow upon the Magical World. The towering Christmas tree, adorned with shining ornaments and glistening garlands, stood proudly at the heart of the park.

Guests and Denizen strolled along the pathways, wrapped in their cozy attire with their scarves and mittens, savoring the scent of cinnamon, gingerbread cookie, and roasted chestnuts that filled the air. Laughter echoed amidst the merriment as everyone explored the park, their faces aglow with the spirit of the season.

However, in this wintry time of year, a special event takes place at the Muppet Vision 3D. The stage is set for the much-anticipated event 'Magical World Winter Talent Show.' This event, revered by guests and denizens alike, marks an occasion of diverse talents, where individuals from all walks of life converge to showcase their extraordinary abilities and talent in the realms of song, dance, comedy, and more. It's a platform where limited creativity is off the table, and imagination takes flight amidst the joyous festivities of the season.

The Winter Talent Show, drew in guests and denizens alike from every corner of the parks and the worlds. Its allure was unparalleled, captivating the attention of all who sought a moment of resplendent joy in the midst of the winter season. The theater had been meticulously transformed for this grand occasion. Special lighting arrangements adorned the entrance, casting a mesmerizing glow upon the awaiting audience as they made their way inside through the doors.

Inside, the stage was bedecked with festive adornments — garlands were draped and hung on the edge of the stage platform, two identical sets of Christmas trees were decorated with Muppet ornaments, and basket planters of poinsettias line up below against the stage platform. But that's not all, the theater is covered by the smell of peppermint to make their audience feel sweet, cozy, and warm.

While the audiences settled on each row of seats, four random judges sat themselves on the front row of the Muppet Vision 3D theater. Among them were none other than: the charismatic and whimsical Genie from Aladdin, the uncompromising standards and unapologetic candor Edna Mode from The Incredible, the ever-wise and insightful Rafiki from The Lion King, and the talented singer and dancer Hannah Monata (Aka Miley Stewart) from Hanna Monata. All were given a clipboard that contained a judging sheet of each contestant's name and points along with a pen to write it down.

The theater hushed as the ceiling lights slowly dimmed down, casting a shadowy veil over the expectant faces in the audience. Conversations dwindled into soft quiet murmurs, and the faint rustle of garments seemed to crescendo in the stillness. The room crackled with an electric anticipation as the curtain at center stage began its gradual sweep aside.

Kermit the Frog, with his signature green hue and amiable demeanor while dressed in this forest green velvet suit jacket, emerged alongside the illustrious Miss Piggy, bedecked in all her dazzling splendor white beaded gown. Applause erupted like a cascade through the theater, a harmonious chorus of appreciation greeting the duo as they glided forward the stage.

"Thank you! Thank you, everyone!" Kermit's voice rang out, carrying a warmth that wrapped around the gathered crowd like a cozy blanket. With an infectious enthusiasm, he addressed the assembly. "Ladies and gentlemen, denizens and guests from every realm of the world, welcome to the most winterness evening in the Magical World Winter calendar — the Winter Talent Show! Hooray!!!!!"

Miss Piggy added in her honeyed tones, "Ahahaha, yes, tonight's about to get magnifique with talents that'll warm your hearts amidst this wintry chill! We're thrilled to have you all here!"

The crowd responded with fervor, a symphony of cheers and claps echoing in the theater, enveloping the space of spirited anticipation. Meanwhile, the judges, seated prominently at the forefront, exchanged knowing glances, their expressions a blend of intrigue and discernment.

"As always," Kermit continued, gesturing grandly towards the adorned stage, "we've got an array of participants lined up, each one primed to dazzle and amaze. From melodious melodies to sidesplitting comedy, and more, tonight's showcase promises to captivate and enchant."

Miss Piggy interjected with a playful grin, "And, of course, it wouldn't be complete without a bit of competition, would it, Kermie?"

Kermit chuckled warmly, "That's right, Miss Piggy! Our judges are here to uphold the highest standards of talent. They'll be scrutinizing, evaluating, and, most importantly, celebrating the incredible abilities on display." He smiled, "let us express our gratitude and thanks to our panel of judges, who took their time off and discerning eyes and acute insight shall guide us through this evening of magnificent entertainment!"

The audience turned their attention to the judges seated in the front row with cheer and applause. The four judges rose up from their seats and turned to face the audience. All, with a smile, gave waves and bowed at the crowd before they slowly sat back down in their seats.

"In just a moment," Miss Piggy announced, "our first participant will grace this very stage. But before we begin, let's give one more round of applause to all the brave souls who are about to share their exceptional talents with us tonight!"

The theater erupted into an applause once more, a crescendo of support and encouragement for the participants awaiting their moment in the spotlight. Once the applause died down, Kermit and Miss Piggy orchestrated a synchronized welcome in perfect harmony, "So, without further ado, let the Magical World Winter Talent Show commence!"

A thunderous final applause erupted once again, as Kermit and Miss Piggy walked back inside through the curtain, and the spotlight narrowed its focus on the now shimmering stage, setting the scene for an evening filled with enchantment and surprises.

At that precise moment, the mammoth red curtains, adorned with golden accents, began their gradual pilgrimage apart, revealing the center stage adorned with an array of whimsical winter wonderland backdrop featuring painted night sky, snowing mountains, trees, and the sign that read "Magical World Talent Show."

The Talent Show soon progressed later on into the night, each act weaving its unique thread into the grand spectacle of the Magical World Winter Talent Show.

There are few incredible participants that show off their talent on stage to impress the audience as well as the judges. One of the performers, a peahen named Almyra, took the stage. With graceful poise, she began an Arabian routine that swept across the stage like a whisper mixed with some ballet dance movement, leaving the audience entranced by the fluidity of her movements. Alymra executed her pirouettes and grand jetés as well as showcased her belly dancing skills by swinging her hips and rolling her tummy, the crowd fell into a reverent silence, allowing the ethereal music of Coffee (Arabian dance) from Tchaikovsky's "The Nutcracker" to carry them into the world of her artistry dance.

Following Alymra's dance performance, up next is Danny Disco (or Double D as they called him). His group — Ben Ali Gator from Dance of the Hours, B-Dawg of the Air Buddies, Winifred Sanderson — burst onto the stage. They had orchestrated an upbeat 80's-style dance routine, each member clad in neon attire that glowed vibrantly against the backdrop. The pulsating rhythm of synthesizers reverberated through the theater as they synchronized their moves, executing break dance flips and spins, electrifying the theater with their infectious energy.

After Double D, Aira came onto the stage with a lyre instrument in her arms as she's dressed in an ancient Roman style gown. Her fingers danced along the strings, producing an enchanting melody before she started singing to the song of "Ave Maria'' that resonated through the theater, evoking emotions that held in the hearts of those in attendance. The audience erupted into applause, moved by the sheer mastery of her performance.

Each participant or group seized the spotlight, painting the stage with their unique skills. Melodious tunes, jaw-dropping dance routines, sidesplitting comedy, and displays of uncanny abilities brought the theater to life, leaving the audience in raptures after each performance. The judges carefully write down their points on their clipboard as they judge each participant that comes on stage.

Behind the stage backstage, another participants and performers, clad in various costumes or attire, rehearsed their acts and fine-tuned their performances. The moment of their performance loomed closer, the banter within the room gradually morphed into a quiet determination, each member mentally preparing themselves to step onto the stage and leave an indelible mark on the audience and the judging panel as they waited for their name to be called out.

Amid the bustle of pre-performance preparations, the occupied dressing room housed an interesting assembly: Gabriel, Logan, Adam, and Staghart, alongside Rachel and Silver. In this backstage sanctuary, an air of tension intermingled with the anticipation of what was to come.

Silver, adept in the artistry of makeup, was meticulously working on transforming the guys and ensuring their appearance aligned with the forthcoming performance. Brushes danced across cheeks, powders settled upon noses, and subtle touches enhanced features, all under Silver's discerning and practiced hands.

Silver, hovered around Staghart, focused on the transformation at hand. "Hold still, Staghart," Silver instructed with a deft hand, his concentration unwavering as he deftly wielded brushes and palettes. "We want you looking your absolute best for the stage and I don't want to start all over."

Meanwhile, in a corner, Gabriel stood, arms crossed, "Logan, why did you have to agree to this bet?" Gabriel muttered, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

Logan scratched the back of his head sheepishly. "I thought Rachel wouldn't be able to take us down in a 1vs4 battle in Super Smash Bros Ultimate, but here we are."

Staghart chimed in, "Well, there's no way of turning back now. We've got a stage to conquer."

Adam looked a bit pale, "I'm not sure about this, guys. I mean, I can handle being on stage in front of the audience, but this... this is different."

Gabriel groans as he facepalms, "This whole stage thing is... well, embarrassing. Not only that, my family is out there in crowds because Rachel decided to invite them!" He hissed

Logan, with an impish grin, retorted, "Come on, Gabe, it's all in good fun! Plus, we did agree to the terms fair and square. I'm not the only one who agrees on the bet first too, you, Adam, and then Staghart jump on board," he stated, "So technically we all agree on the bet."

Rachel, observing the scene with amusement, couldn't help but interject, "Oh, come on, boys, it's all part of the experience! Besides, the audience will love seeing you all up there."

Gabriel's thoughts churned like an agitated tempest. "Why on earth did you, Rachel, have to invite my family?" He exasperated.

Rachel couldn't resist teasing Gabriel gently. "Oh, come now, Gabe, where's the fun if I don't invite your dearest sweet loving family to witness your spectacular performance?"

With a sigh, Gabriel retorted, "The 'fun' part, Rachel, would have been knowing what I'm about to perform, on stage! You never told them, did you?" His words disheartened surrender.

Rachel chuckled softly, "Oh, where's the thrill in that, Gabriel? I wanted it to be a surprise! And I must say, your family seemed absolutely thrilled to witness your talents showcased on this grand stage."

Gabriel's countenance betrayed a momentary lapse of dread. "Talents, huh? More like a forced expedition into the depths of humiliation," he muttered under his breath.

Logan, sporting a mischievous grin, chimed in, "Oh, come on, Gabe, think of it this way — your family will remember this for the rest of their life!"

Adam, who had been quietly contemplating his own worries, looked up with a pale face, echoing Gabriel's concerns, "I agree with Gabriel, guys. This is more than just a little nerve-wracking."

Staghart offered them a reassuring smile. "We've got this, you guys. It's a chance to show a side of us that's rarely seen, and who knows, we might surprise ourselves."

Amidst the camaraderie and the quiet resolve building within the group, Silver, focused on his craft, offered his perspective. "Let's channel this nervous energy into something spectacular, shall we? The stage awaits, and I assure you, once you step into that spotlight, you'll shine brighter than you've ever imagined."

Rachel, with a teasing glint in her eyes, added, "Besides, Gabriel, where's the thrill in knowing what you're about to perform? Embrace the unexpected; it's what makes life amazing!"

Gabriel exhaled slowly, trying to muster some semblance of confidence. "Alright, alright," he relented, "I'll try to make the best of it. But if this ends up on the internet..."

Rachel interrupted with a smirk, "Oh, it definitely will!"

Silver meticulously finished applying the last touches to Staghart's makeup, ensuring every line and color accentuated the character he was to embody. "There we go, Staghart," Silver said with a satisfied nod. "You're all set. Now, it's time for you boys to get into your costumes."

Rachel plucked the dress off the rack and made sure on who the dress was whose, a glint of mischief in her eyes as she handed it to Adam. "Here you go, Adam. Time to for you to put it on," she teased with a playful grin.

Adam gulped as he approached the panel folding screen to change into his costume. However, there was a struggle with the zipper as he attempted to fasten the back closure but was unable to get it fully zip up. Furrowing his brow, Adam sighed in mild frustration. "I don't think this dress is quite right, Rachel. It's not zipping up properly."

Rachel, with a chuckle, strolled over to the panel folding screen. "Oh, Adam, it's not the dress that's wrong, it's your approach! Let me show you a little trick."

Before Adam could fully process her words, Rachel swiftly maneuvered, slammed Adam against the wall of the dressing room. "Brace yourself!" she commanded with determination.

Adam, caught off guard, blinked in bewildered ahold. "Wait, what are you...?"

"Suck it in!" Rachel commanded with a chuckle, pressing gently against Adam's back as she assisted him with the dress by zipping the dress up.

"Ah, okay!" Adam gasped, feeling the fabric constrict slightly around him.

"Take a deep breath!" Rachel encouraged, her tone light but firm, guiding him through the motions.

Adam inhaled deeply, his chest expanding as he attempted to comply with Rachel's instructions.

"And hold it in!" Rachel exclaimed, her voice containing a blend of encouragement and amusement.

Adam followed Rachel's directive, attempting to hold his breath while Rachel worked on securing the stubborn zipper. Gabriel, Logan, and Staghart stood all frozen in a combination of horror and panic, their eyes wide in disbelief at the unfolding scene that happened behind the panel folding screen.

Using all of her mighty power and strength to pull this zipper up, Rachel deftly manipulated the dress and expertly guided the zipper upward. The fabric embraced Adam's form snugly, the zipper gliding into place with an audible click.

"There we go!" Rachel exclaimed triumphantly, stepping back to admire her handiwork. "See, Adam? It fits perfectly! All it needed was a little finesse."

Adam, still slightly catching his breath, looked both relieved and stunned by the entire shocking experience, but undeniably pleased that the dress finally fit. Rachel walks out of the paneling folding screen and turns towards the trio after her successful endeavor with Adam and an sweet smile on her before posing the question, "Who's next?"


Gabriel, Logan, Adam, and Staghart now stood poised in front of the closed curtain, each striking their poses in their assigned spot that Rachel has made them do during rehearsals, and each of them ready to make their entrance onto the stage.

Gabriel, sporting a grumpy expression, shot a reproachful glance at Logan. "I am so not going to forgive you for this, Logan," he muttered through gritted teeth, casting a criminal offense eyeside glance at his friend beside him. "If it weren't for you agreeing to Rachel's bet and making us jump off on board, we wouldn't be here making fools of ourselves in front of everyone on stage!"

Logan, on the other hand, tries to lighten the mood as he nervously chuckles and responds back to him. "Come on, Gabriel, it's not so bad. Think of it as a…. fun experience!"

"A 'fun experience' in my-"

A sudden command from Rachel offstage interrupted their momentary argument. "Logan, switch places with Adam," Rachel's directive echoed through the backstage area, causing a brief moment of shock among the boys.

Logan's eyes widened in disbelief, confusion etched on his face. His initial position was meant to be beside Gabriel, a decision Rachel had enforced during their rehearsals. "But… you assigned me to stand here next to Gabriel," he protested, caught off guard by the sudden change of plan.

Rachel, undeterred, calmly explained, "Trust me, it'll look better if you two switch places."

Adam chimed in, a tinge of concern in his tone, "But, if we switch now, the whole choreography will be backward."

Growing visibly frustrated, Rachel asserted, "Right now, y'all getting on my last nerve. Switch!"

Reluctantly, the boys complied to Rachel's request. Logan and Adam exchanged places, a quick shuffle that disrupted their carefully rehearsed positioning. The two swiftly adjusted their poses to accommodate the switch: Gabriel maintained his composure with his left hand on his hip and his right hand extended outward, while Logan leaned to the right, placing his right elbow on Gabriel's left shoulder and his left hand on his hip.

Meanwhile, Adam and Staghart, also adapting to the sudden change, leaned their upper bodies forward, clasping their hands together as they adjusted to this new arrangement.

Rachel, satisfied with the adjustment, called out with an encouraging tone, "And smile boys~!" She then left and quickly hurried back to her seat.

Despite their inner turmoil and confusion, they managed to conjure up strained smiles, attempting to adhere to Rachel's directive amidst the whirlwind of unexpected changes.

Rachel swiftly made her way back to her seat on the fift back row, deftly navigating through the backstage hustle and bustle. Once she settled into her spot beside her husband Poe de Spell, a glint of mischief danced in her eyes.

Poe, noticing her arrival just in time for the next performances, flashed her a warm smile. "Ah, there you are, my dear Rachel. Ready for the next show?"

Rachel nodded eagerly, a mischievous smirk curling on her lips. "Heck yes. And did you bring my phone?" she inquired as she looked at him.

Poe nodded, handing her the device from his pocket inside. "Yes, I've got it right here."

An evil chuckle escaped Rachel's lips as she received the phone. "I simply cannot wait to capture this unforgettable moment," she teased, preparing to record the upcoming performances.

Gilda, Gabriel's mom, sat behind Poe, was eagerly excited for her son's performance. Turning to face Rachel, a warm smile graced her features as she expressed her gratitude, "Rachel, thank you so much for inviting us to watch Gabriel's performance with his friends. We're thrilled to be here."

Rachel beamed back at Gilda with her sweet innocent smile, "Oh, Gilda, it's our pleasure to have you, Gavin, and Gray here tonight. I couldn't be more excited for you all to see what they've prepared. It's going to be quite the show!"

Gilda chuckled before speaking, "We wouldn't miss it for the world!" You've been so secretive about this performance for two weeks, but I can tell he's been practicing tirelessly for it," she remarked.

Rachel chuckled back softly, "Oh, you're in for a surprise! It's going to be quite the spectacle. I'm glad you're here to witness it all."

Moments later, Kermit's voice reverberated through the intercoms, signaling their impending appearance. "Everyone, up next, pease welcome to the stage, Santa's helpers doing Jingle Bell Rock!"

The crowd erupted into anticipatory applause as the intercom announced the next act. The curtain slowly began its movement to the side, unveiling the stage for the next talent. Spotlights danced across the stage, casting a light on stage, leaving the audience and judges in a state of pleasant shock and gasp.

Gabriel, Logan, Adam, and Staghart, dressed as Santa's merry helpers. The guys were dressed in this shimmery red fabric designed with elbow-length puff sleeves and a gathered full babydoll knee-length skirt that's perfect for dancing and twirling with white soft petticoat underneath and an thin black leather belt that loop around their waist with an golden square buckle. Luxe white faux fur trim around the straight neckline and the skirt hem. On the bottom, they wore a pair of knee-high leather boots as well as matching wrist-length gloves on their hands. This attire isn't complete without a Santa that perfectly sat upon their head. Finally, they all have darker red shades on the inner and lighter red shades on the outer corners of the lid, and then shimmery shades all over the lid and shimmery natural blush on their cheek with glitter highlights.

Gabriel's heart pounded in his chest, his eyes darting across the audience, landing squarely on his family among the attendees. He swallowed hard, "Oh no, this is happening," he muttered in his head, panic and resignation settling in.

Logan stood frozen for a brief moment, exchanging incredulous glances with his friends. "Well, this just took an interesting turn," he remarked with a nervous chuckle, trying to mask his surprise with humor.

Meanwhile, Adam and Staghart exchanged nervous looks, their expressions mirroring confusion and a dash of amusement at the sheer unpredictability of the moment.

The sudden reveal drew gasps and then turned into a chorus of surprised laughter and snickering from the audience, who found themselves delightfully astonished by this unexpected event. Rachel, with a gleeful smirk, aimed her recording phone toward the stage, eagerly capturing every moment of their surprise act.

Adam went to push the button on the radio that was placed by Rachel for the song to play and quickly headed back to his spot.

[Song: Jingle Bell Rock]

Jingle-bell

With the music starting, they initiated the routine with four confident walks forward, leading with their left foot. As they moved, their arms swayed gracefully, wrapping their bodies in a fluid motion. Rachel then got up from her seat and stood onto the aisle as she guided them with the exact same dance move she taught them.

Jingle-bell

First, their left arm crossed in front of their bodies with the right arm positioned at the back. Then, they smoothly transitioned, switching their arms, with the right arm crossing in front and the left arm at the back.

Jingle-bell rock

Following the walks, they extended their right arm over their head, reaching towards the upper right-hand corner.

Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring

Simultaneously, they shifted their hips to the left and elegantly flopped their wrist over to the left side. As they brought their hips back to the center, their wrist gracefully ascended to the right.

Snowin' an blowin'

They repeated this movement again by creating a small circular motion with their hips and placing both hands on their hips. With their knees bent, they executed a larger circular hip motion.

"Oh I am sooo gonna reference this in my future best man speech!" Gray chuckled as he recorded it.

Gavin leans to his son as he whispers to him, "send it to the family group chat will you?"

"Oh I will," Gray responded.

Stepping onto their right foot, they directed their hips to the right side, while their right hand moved down towards the left corner and then up towards the right corner. They maintained their right hand elevated as they mirrored the movement with their left hand, simultaneously bending their knees.

up bushels of fun

Concluding the hip circle, they interlocked their hands above their heads. With a forward knee bend, they swiftly slapped their front upper thighs with their hands.

"Oh dear!" Glinda looks stunned by this dance movement.

Now the jingle hop has begun

The guys smoothly turned their bodies to the right, extending their left hand while bending their right arm at the elbow, resting it near their sternum. With a playful demeanor, they accentuated their routine by sticking their booties out four times, gradually shimmering down.

Jingle-bell

Stepping forward with their right foot, they extended their hands over their heads, forming a circular motion to the right, then forward to the left, and finally back.

Jingle-bell

While twirling their bodies three times, they synchronized the movement with their hips.

Jingle-bell rock

Concluding the twirls, they firmly stepped onto their right foot, shifting their hips to the right side.

Jingle bells chime

Their hands followed suit, moving to the right while keeping their elbows bent. They then embarked on a series of walks to the left, leading with their left foot. As they stepped in front of their right foot, they accentuated the movement by sticking their hips to the left.

"You're doing amazing sweetie!" Melanie called out to her husband while Jasiri let out a wolf whistle.

In jingle-bell time

Simultaneously, their hands rose above their heads, linking together. Maintaining their hands elevated, they swayed their hips to the right, paused momentarily, and then repeated the sequence to the left.

"Well… there's something you don't see everyday," Toren softly commented while Barcus slowly nodded his head.

Dancin' and prancin'

At an angle, they turned to the left, extending their right foot forward while lowering their arms. They extended their arms forward, twisting their wrists inward, and returned them to their sides.

In Jingle Bell Square

However, Adam suddenly forgets which side to turn into, and she bumps into Gabriel. He walks backwards, kicking the radio and it messes the song up that began glitching Inc repeats.

In the fro-fro-fro-fro-fro-fro-fro

Adam, panicking, doesn't know what to do or how to fix it in this situation. So his only solution to fixing the issue was by kicking the radio, which, however, flew off the stage and it hit Beaker's face which made everyone gasp.

"Oh my gosh, are you ok?" Adam asked in concern, deeply apologetic, but uncertain about what else to do, he hurriedly retreated to his spot onstage.

The four guys, unsure of how to proceed by the unforeseen mishap, stood frozen in an awkward pause like the Deer animal caught in the headlight. Gabriel knows that the performance must go on and they can't just walk off stage. His solution was to sing the entire rest of the song and keep on dancing as they had all practice.

"What a bright time, it's the right time." Gabriel sings as he slowly shimmering back up and subtly moving his hips side by side. "To rock the night away!" Then, he took four steps forward to the right, his elbows bent as Gabriel circled his wrists outward four times.

Adam, Logan, and Staghart follow Gabriel's silence plan and they all gracefully turn to the left, stepping forward with their right foot, then bringing their left foot inward and backward before repeating the sequence once more.

Gabriel, Adam, Logan, and Staghart:

Jingle bell time, it's a swell time!

To go riding in a one horse sleigh.

Next, they turned their bodies back to the right, slightly angled forward, and extended their arms in front of them.

Gabriel, Adam, Logan, and Staghart:

Giddy-yap jingle horse; pick up your feet;

With a playful spirit, they shook their buttocks to the right twice. Then, they brought their hands behind their backs and repeated the butt-shaking motion to the right eight times

Gabriel, Adam, Logan, and Staghart:

Jingle around the clock

Returning their bodies to face the front, they proceeded with a box step.

Gabriel, Adam, Logan, and Staghart:

Mix and mingle in a jinglin' beat

Stepping over with their right foot, they followed by stepping back with their left foot, then to the right with their right foot, and finally to the front. As they executed the box step, they let their arms flow freely.

Gabriel, Adam, Logan, and Staghart:

That's the jingle bell

Stepping forward again with their right foot, they turned their bodies over their left shoulders, showcasing their backs to the audience.

Gabriel, Adam, Logan, and Staghart:

That's the jingle bell

Once more, they stepped forward with their right foot, turned to the left, returned to the front, and stepped out to the right and left.

Gabriel, Adam, Logan, and Staghart:

That's the jingle bell rock!

They finished the entire routine by Logan and Gabriel turning to their body to the left and Adam and Staghart facing the opposite, bending their right knee, and extending their arms outward and upward while jazz handing in the air.

The audience erupted in thunderous applause as they completed their dance routine, flawlessly executing every move that they had choreographed.

Gabriel, Adam, Logan, and Staghart, their spirits lifted by the enthusiastic reception, turned to face the crowd, clasping hands, and executed a graceful stage bow. With a synchronized movement, they bent at their waists, offering their gratitude to the cheering crowd and the judges.

In the midst of the applause, Rachel ended her recording, her mischievous grin hinting at the joy she found in capturing the unforgettable moment. Despite the chaos that had happened on stage, couldn't help but beam with pride as she was impressed by their determination to carry on and finish the routine flawlessly.

Once the curtain gracefully drew to a close, concealing the stage from view, Gabriel, Adam, Logan, and Staghart exchanged relieved yet exhilarated glances and heavy sighs of relief. They remove each other's hand and immediately walk offstage to their right, glad that they managed to salvage the performance and end it on a high note.

They exchanged a few silent nods of acknowledgment, their faces expressing a weary exhilaration, but the thrill of successfully finishing the routine prevailed.

"That was... woosh…. intense," Gabriel finally managed to say, wiping the beads of sweat forming on his forehead. "I thought we were going down in flames when the music glitched."

Adam, gulping down water from the small cup, nodded in agreement. "Yeah, when I accidentally kicked the radio, I nearly lost it. And then when it hit Beaker... that was terrifying."

Logan chimed in, stretching his arms behind his head. "I mean, I think we handled it pretty well, considering the unexpected chaos. At least we didn't completely freeze up."

Staghart, taking deep breaths to catch his breath, added with a chuckle, "I think we pulled it off, you three. It wasn't what we planned, but hey, we survived. And the audience seemed to love it."

Rachel, who had rushed to join them backstage, wore a proud smile. "You guys were incredible! I mean, sure, there were a few unexpected moments, but you owned it. It was amazing!"

Silver, Toren, Melanie, and Barcus approached the group, smiling proudly as they joined backstage. They were mighty impressed by the resilience and adaptability the four had shown during the unforeseen mishaps on stage.

Silver chimed in, "That was quite the performance, boys! You handled those unexpected twists with such grace and composure."

Toren has a grin on his face. "yeah! The way you improvised and carried on, it was like… so cool. You turned what could have been a disaster into an amazing act!"

Barcus nodded as he agreed with Toren.

Gabriel, Adam, Logan, and Staghart looked at each other, relief in their faces. Despite the initial shock and chaos, they couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment at having completed the performance, albeit not as planned.

"Thanks, Silver, Toren," Gabriel said, managing a smile. "It was….. definitely a moment we won't forget anytime soon."

Adam nodded in agreement, still catching his breath while Melanie rubbing his back. "Yeah, we didn't expect it to go down that way, but hey, we did it."

"I will say," Melanie chuckled. "You four have done an outstanding job dancing on stage!"

"Gabriel, you were amazing out there!" Jasiri kissed Gabriel on his right cheek.

Logan, ever the optimist, chuckled lightly. "Well, it was certainly a performance to remember, that's for sure!"

Staghart, still trying to regain his breath, grinned broadly. "I'll say! We'll have quite the story to tell."

Rachel, with an encouraging smile, stepped closer to the boys. "You know, despite the unexpected hiccups, you managed to keep the energy high and entertain everyone out there. That's what really matters."

Silver and Toren shook their head in agreement with Rachel.

"Yeah," Toren added with a supportive nod. "You guys did brilliantly. And the audience's reaction was proof of that!"

The four couldn't help but smile at each other, while they might not have expected the unexpected, but they faced it head-on and came out victorious.

Despite the initial shock and the unforeseen mishaps, the guys found themselves laughing, reliving the craziness of the performance. They stretched and chatted amongst themselves, their camaraderie remained unshaken, bolstered by the shared experience of navigating through the unexpected twists and turns of their stage debut.


After every participant and group had showcased their talents, Kermit and Miss Piggy took center stage. Kermit held the envelope containing the names of the winner or winners of the night.

Clearing his throat, Kermit addressed the buzzing audience, "Everyone, can we please get a round of applause for all our incredible performers tonight? They've truly wowed us with their talents!" The crowd responded with loud cheers and applause, acknowledging the hard work and dedication of each participant.

"Now, it is time for the moment we've all been waiting for," Kermit continued, "But before I reveal the winner, I'd like to take a moment to thank our judges for their time and expertise. Your contributions and insights have been invaluable in making this evening such a success. And with that, The Muppets and I thank you fourth for being our tonight judges for today."

Turning to the panel of judges, he nodded in thanks as the audience applauded in recognition of their efforts.

"With that said," Kermit announced, drawing the attention back to the envelope in his hand. "The winner of tonight's spectacular showcase is..."

As the tension built, Miss Piggy added with flair, "Drumroll, please!"

"The winners are..." Opening the envelope, Kermit paused for effect before announcing the name of the victors. "Clarabelle and her reindeers, for their electrifying and resilient performance of "All I want for Christmas is you!"!"

The audience erupted into cheers and applause, recognizing the group that had pulled off on stage ago. Clarabelle walked on stage dressed in an elegant silvery gown as she blew kisses at the crowd and followed by the reindeers who acted as her backup dancers.

Kermit and Miss Piggy stepped forward to congratulate the winners, presenting them with the trophy amid the resounding applause and cheers from the audience.

"Congratulations to all our participants tonight, and a special round of applause to our winners! Great job, everyone!" Kermit exclaimed, closing the event on a note of celebration and recognition for the talents displayed on stage.

As the crowd began to disperse and the buzz of the talent show slowly faded, Gabriel, Adam, Logan, Staghart, Silver, Toren, Barcus, Jasiri, Melanie, Gilda, Gavin, and Gray found themselves gathered at the theater's entrance. Dressed in their cozy winter attire, they exchanged laughs and shared impressions of the performances they'd witnessed.

"That was quite the show, huh?" Gabriel remarked with a grin, "I mean, kinda sad that we didn't win, but hey, good job, everyone! We made it through!"

Adam chuckled in agreement, adjusting his scarf to shield himself from the chilly evening air. "Yeah! I didn't think we could perform on stage like that!"

Logan nodded, shivering slightly. "For sure! I mean, who would've thought we'd end up nail it on stage? But it actually kind of fun!"

Staghart, his breath forming little clouds in the cold air, chuckled, "Yeah, definitely wasn't how we planned it, but at least we kept it entertaining!"

Toren grinned, rubbing his mittens covered paws together for warmth. "That dance was a riot! I've never seen anything like it. And Adam, the way you kick the radio, that was so shocking to think about!"

Silver, Barcus, Jasiri, Melanie, Gilda, Gavin, and Gray muttered in agreement, laughter still lingering from the entertaining performance and the unexpected turn of events.

"Listen, as much as we could keep chatting, it's hella freezing out here," Gray remarked, pulling his coat tighter around him. "How about we head somewhere warm and grab something to eat? Let's say….. The Hollywood Brown Ducky restaurant everyone?"

The idea immediately received unanimous approval, and the group began to disperse, making their way to a restaurant to warm up, relive the night's events, and share a meal together. Even though that the guys did not end up winning the Talent Show, the experience and laughter they shared, however, made the evening a memorable one.

"Oh, and Logan, you're going paying the bill."

"I will happily take that as my punishment for agreeing on an bet with Rachel and I see no argument here. Not going to lie."


Hey there, everyone! This chapter was a wild ride, wasn't it? Inspired by the iconic "Jingle Bell Rock" scene from Mean Girls, we saw our talented group navigate through unexpected mishaps and pull off an unforgettable performance. Sometimes, the best moments happen when things don't go as planned. From the hilarious mix-ups to the resilience and determination displayed on stage, it's a tale to remember. Sure, Mean Girls is not a Christmas movie, but that scene surely became one of the most iconic and culturally moments in the memories of all who watch it.

And now, as the holiday season is upon us, I want to take a moment to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! May this season be filled with warmth, joy, and cherished moments spent with loved ones just as memorable as our gang's unexpected stage performance. Here's to a fantastic New Year of 2024 ahead, Cheers to making more unforgettable memories in the days to come!
