User blog:Plant Protecter/Fanfiction: A Very Un-Merry Feastivus!

My 19th fanfiction. As always, feedback is appreciated and I accept requests. Merry Feastivus everyone.

Synopsis
A chain reaction, started by Sweet Potato, manages to topple the large fir tree the town uses for Feastivus celebrations.

A Very Un-Merry Feastivus!

 * [The scene starts in the town square, where a gigantic fir tree decorated with festive lights is seen. Many plants and zombies (who are wearing winter clothing) are seen celebrating Feastivus and generally having fun with the snow. Most of the main characters are seen walking towards the town square.]

Glitter Zombie: (elated) "Isn't Feastivus just the best holidays of the year? The festivities, the snow, and most importantly, spending time with your friends and family."

Fishy Imp: "Says you and your Feastivus outfit. The presents are the best part!"

Ghost Pepper: "Didn't you get coal last Feastivus due to your behaviour?"

Fishy Imp: "I have no idea what you're talking about."


 * [The camera zooms out to reveal that she is pelting her siblings with snowballs.]

Imp Mermaid Zombie: (annoyed) "Fishy Imp! Stop or I'll tell mom!"

Blooming Heart: (curiously) "Where IS she, anyway?"

Imp: "She's probably hiding, due to the prank Fishy Imp pulled yesterday."

Fishy Imp: "It was a good prank until mom showed up!"

Sweet Potato: "It's not nice to do that people, especially around holidays like this one. It ruins the spirit."

Fishy Imp: "It does not. Here." (hands Sweet Potato a snowball) "I want you to throw this snowball at anyone except me. It won't hurt anyone, and it will definitely NOT ruin the Feastivus spirit."

Sweet Potato: "I'm not sure if I can throw this at someone. What if it has dire consequences?"

Weasel Hoarder: "Dire consequences? By throwing a snowball? Me throwing one of my weasels would have more dire consequences."

Glitter Zombie: "In my opinion, snow is relatively harmless. I can think of more horrible things like-"

???: "Glitter Zombie!"


 * [Glitter Zombie turns around, and groans in annoyance as MC Zom-B walks up to her, arms behind his back.]

Glitter Zombie: (sourly) "Hello, MC Zom-B."

MC Zom-B: "Aren't you glad to see me?"

Glitter Zombie: "Am I glad to see the guy who tries to date me even though I'm married? Let me think. NO!"

MC Zom-B: "Come on, it's Feastivus! Remember the gift I gave you last year?"

Glitter Zombie: "I thought I told you to never bring that up!"


 * [While the two talk, the other characters silently watch.]

Weasel Hoarder (whispering to Ghost Pepper) "Should we help her?"

Ghost Pepper: "No, I like seeing her single-handedly crush his dreams of romance."

MC Zom-B: "OK OK, last year‘s gift was bad, but I have a better idea for Feastivus!"


 * [He reveals the fishing rod he was hiding behind his back, and Missile Toe is tied to the end of the rod's line.]

Missile Toe: "I'm still being paid by the hour for this, right?"

Glitter Zombie (livid) "How many times have I told you?! I. Will. Not. Kiss. You. EVER!"

MC Zom-B: "Not even once?"


 * [As Glitter Zombie looks at him with a scowl on her face, trying to calm down, Fishy Imp nudges Sweet Potato.]

Fishy Imp: "Sweet Potato, this is the perfect chance to throw the snowball at someone."

Imp: "Yeah, hit MC Zom-B in the face."

Fishy Imp: "Or Glitter Zombie. Mostly her."

Imp Mermaid Zombie: "Fishy Imp!"


 * [Panicking, Sweet Potato throws the snowball, and it hits Glitter Zombie's head.]

Glitter Zombie: (enraged) "That's it! I've been pushed over the edge!"


 * [She violently shoves MC Zom-B, who slides around, due to the icy pavement. Near him, Zombie Commander is happily watching Arcade Zombie ice skate on a frozen puddle. MC Zom-B bumps into the latter, who falls facedown into the ice. Zombie Commander grabs MC Zom-B by his jumper's collar and angrily looks at him.]

Zombie Commander: (angrily) "How DARE you do that to him?!"


 * [She lifts MC Zom-B off the ground and throws him into the air. Nearby, a large snow ramp is seen, and Energy Drink Zombie (with skiing equipment) is seen at the top. Ski Zombie and Walrus Zombie are at the ramp's base, angrily looking at him.]

Ski Zombie: "Get down. You up there all morning."

Energy Drink Zombie: (quickly) "Sorry dude! I'm having a major energy drink sugar rush, and I have to get rid of the energy somehow!"


 * [Suddenly, MC Zom-B knocks Energy Drink Zombie down the ramp. Unprepared, he falls and starts snowballing. He is then launched off the ramp. Nearby, a group of carollers (featuring Jolly Holly, Holly Barrier, Cherry Bomb, Grapeshot, and Bombegranate) sing Feastivus carols.]

Jolly Holly and Holly Barrier: "Deck the halls with boughs of us!"

Carollers: "Fa la la la la, la la la-"


 * [Energy Drink Zombie crashes into the carollers, covering them in snow. Cherry Bomb, Grapeshot, and Bombegranate angrily stare at him, before expanding and finally exploding. Nearby, a couple of plants and zombies are building snowpeople. Sloth Gargantuar builds a snowsloth, while Giga Torchwood tries to build a snowtree. The snowtree keeps melting.]

Giga Torchwood: (mad) "This is stupid!"


 * [His flames turn while he shouts in rage. One of Grapeshot's grapes flies into Sloth Gargantuar's snowsloth, destroying it. He angrily roars and swings his giant icicle, hitting Giga Torchwood and knocking him into the giant fir tree, which is set on fire. The force of Giga Torchwood hitting the tree also breaks the tree's trunk, making it fall towards the town hall, where Crazy Dave and Dr. Zomboss are talking.]

Dr. Zomboss: "You know David, it's actually a bit... nice just talking to you. Even though throughout the year I was trying to destroy you."

Crazy Dave: "Garglefragle shnoopadoop fleeple bloob." (You're not so bad yourself, Zomboss.)


 * [The giant fir tree quickly falls towards them, and Crazy Dave pushes Dr. Zomboss out of the way, before moving away himself. The tree finishes falling, and the leaves and branches of the tree settle. The camera cuts to the tree base, where plants and zombies are panicking. The main characters look at the scene in shock/horror, except for Ghost Pepper (who looks in wonder) and Shrinking Violet (who has fainted).]

Ghost Pepper: "Look at this destruction and mayhem! Tell me someone filmed this!"

Sunflower: "Oh my pod."

Fishy Imp: "You destroyed the giant fir tree. Even I wouldn't do that, and I once gave my mom a tarantula for a birthday present. You're a monster."

Imp: "Fishy Imp!"


 * [Tears start to fill Sweet Potato's eyes, and she bursts out crying. Blooming Heart goes to comfort her.]

Blooming Heart: "Hey hey hey. There's no need to cry. It was just an accident."

Fishy Imp: "An accident that cut down the largest tree in the area during Feastivus. Doesn't look good for y-"


 * [Imp covers Fishy Imp's mouth while Sweet Potato continues crying.]

Sweet Potato: "She's right! I'm a m-monster! A horrible, Feastivus destroying, s-starch-filled monster!"

Sunflower: "Ignore her. Now look at me, I want to try and calm you down."

Sweet Potato: "I can't! The cold has made my tear-covered eyes freeze shut!"


 * [She hops away from them, still crying. She continues hopping until she enters the forest at the end of the street. Glitter Zombie starts crying too.]

Ghost Pepper: "What's YOUR problem?"

Glitter Zombie: "This is my fault. I-If I didn't push MC Zom-B, none of this would of happened. I helped ruined Feastivus." (looks at her outfit) "I don't deserve to w-wear this!"


 * [She rips her clothes off, revealing a nightgown. She then starts shivering while still crying.]

Glitter Zombie: "N-Now If you'll e-excuse me, I'm g-gonna drown my sorrows in chocolate milkshakes."


 * [She enters the cafe next to her and skates up to the counter, which is manned by Brain Vendor. She then lets her head fall face first onto the counter.]

Glitter Zombie: "Give me five large chocolate milkshakes with everything, 10 tokens for the jukebox, a box of tissues, and an entire can of whipped cream. I feel horrible today and just want to forget everything."

Brain Vendor: (concerned) "Ma'am, isn't it a bit early to try and drown your sorrows in drinks? We just opened."

Glitter Zombie: "I'll give you 50 Zombucks for everything."

Brain Vendor: (concerned) "If you insist."


 * [Outside, the other main characters are watching Glitter Zombie take a seat, before crying. Parasol Zombie and Bikini Zombie arrive, and see the carnage.]

Parasol Zombie: "We leave for 10 minutes and someone destroys the Feastivus tree?!" (sighs) "OK, which one of us messed up now? Sunflower? Imp? Zombie Commander? I'm picking Zombie Commander."

Bikini Zombie: "What actually happened? I just want to know what."

Ghost Pepper: "Long story short, Fishy Imp made Sweet Potato throw a snowball which messed everything up, Sweet Potato is grieving somewhere in the woods, and Glitter Zombie is in the cafe next to us crying her eyes out. In sort, a pretty good situation."


 * [Bikini Zombie looks inside the cafe, where Glitter Zombie is crying while drinking a milkshake. She gasps in shock, and rushes in to comfort her.]

Shrinking Violet: "At least she's getting consoled."

Parasol Zombie: (angrily) "Fishy Imp, you've really outdone yourself. You managed to indirectly wreck the giant fir tree AND made two of our friends cry?"

Imp: "She’s also pelted me and Imp Mermaid Zombie with snowballs."

Parasol Zombie: "Fishy Imp, you're grounded until the end of the year. The NEXT year."

Fishy Imp: "Still worth it."

Parasol Zombie: "I feel like a horrible mother right now. Can things get any worse?!"


 * [Just then, Zombie Commander walks up to the group, and spots Parasol Zombie, who starts backing away.]

Zombie Commander: "Parasol Zombie, there you are! We still have unfinished business from yesterday."

Parasol Zombie: "Get away from me!"


 * [She runs away from Zombie Commander, causing the latter to bolt after her while the others watch.]

Dusk Lobber: "Anyone know what's going on between them?"

Imp: "It's the result of Fishy Imp's prank from yesterday. Let me explain what happened."


 * [A flashback starts, and the three Imps are hiding behind a building at a street's corner. The Imps are stacked one on the other (Imp at the bottom, Imp Mermaid Zombie in the middle, and Fishy Imp at the top), and Fishy Imp is holding a fishing rod in her hands.]

Imp: "Fishy Imp, are you sure we should do this?"

???: "I agree."


 * [The camera zooms out to reveal Missile Toe tied to the fishing line's end.]

Missile Toe: "This doesn't seem like a nice thing to do during Feastivus."

Imp Mermaid Zombie: (curiously) "What are we even doing?"

Fishy Imp: (sighs) "Imp, you look around the corner for pairs of people. Imp Mermaid Zombie gives me the signal, and then I move Missile Toe above their heads. And we all know what to do under mistletoe. It'll be so awkward for them!" (giggles evilly) "I can't wait."

Imp Mermaid Zombie: "What if this goes horrible wrong? These people could be in love with other people."


 * [Imp looks around the corner, and a look of worry appears on his face.]

Imp: (nervously) "Uh, there are two people coming this way. But I don't think we should do this to them."

Fishy Imp: "Imp up, will you? Mermaid, look around the corner and tell me when to move Missile Toe."


 * [Imp Mermaid Zombie looks around the corner, and a look of worry appears on her face.]

Imp Mermaid Zombie: "Imp's right, we shouldn't do this."

Fishy Imp: (annoyed) "Just tell me when!"

Imp and Imp Mermaid Zombie: "No!"

Fishy Imp: "Too bad!"


 * [She moves Missile Toe just as the pair of people move into sight. The camera zooms out to reveal... Parasol Zombie and Zombie Commander as the pair. Missile Toe and the Imps look in worry (except for Fishy Imp, who is trying not to laugh). Parasol Zombie looks at Zombie Commander in embarrassment, while Zombie Commander just looks between her and Missile Toe.]

Parasol Zombie: (embarrassed) "Zombie Commander, I apologise about this situation. My kids are definitely going to be grounded!" (she glares at them) "And I'm sure we don't want to... well...."

Zombie Commander: "I'm up for it."


 * [Everyone stares at Zombie Commander, who just blinks silently. Fishy Imp now has a look of confusion on her face.]

Fishy Imp: "You're not not doing it right! It's supposed to be a socially awkward situation."

Parasol Zombie: (slightly panicking) "And besides, I'm married. With kids. Those kids."

Zombie Commander: "So? If a plant can marry a zombie, then surely anything can happen. And besides, the mistletoe rule is law."

Missile Toe: "No it's not!"

Zombie Commander: (rolls eyes) "What do you know about mistletoe, Missile Toe?"


 * [She starts approaching Parasol Zombie, who runs away screaming.]

Parasol Zombie: "Don't come near me!"

Zombie Commander: "But I have to. It's tradition!"


 * [She bolts after her while the Imps and Missile Toe watch.]

Imp: (sarcastically) "Good job Fishy Imp. This must be hilarious for you."

Fishy Imp: "Fine! I messed up! Again! We'll fix it later."


 * [The flashback ends, and it shows the others staring at the Imps.]

Sunflower: "You did what?"

Blooming Heart: "I extremely dislike people that do that."

Imp Mermaid Zombie: "And now mom is avoiding her like she has the plague."

Ghost Pepper: "I personally like the plague."


 * [Parasol Zombie is shown running in front of the others while Zombie Commander chases her. Both are sliding around due to the ice-covered roads and pavement.]

Shrinking Violet: "Where do you think Sweet Potato is?"

Fishy Imp: "Probably still moping in the forest somewhere. I honestly don't care."


 * [The scene cuts to the forest, where Sweet Potato is sadly hopping aimlessly. She spots a cave, and enters it. After hopping deep into the cave, she sits on a rock and continues crying. Above her, Vampire Flower falls from the ceiling and lands behind her. She approaches Sweet Potato.]

Vampire Flower: "You OK?"


 * [Sweet Potato turns to her, and shrieks in fright before falling of the rock and backing into a wall.]

Sweet Potato: (scared) "W-What are you going t-to do to me?! Please d-don't suck my chlorophyll, I taste like starch!"

Vampire Flower: (laughs) "I'm not going to do that. Besides, I prefer zombies more. I just vant to know vhy you sadly hopped into my home and started crying."

Sweet Potato: "I did something horrible, something terrible, something absolutely disgusting."

Vampire Flower: "It can't be vorse than the time me and my friends turned a couple of people in vampires."

Sweet Potato: "Well, the story goes like this..."


 * [As she begins to tell her story, the scene cuts to the cafe, where Bikini Zombie is sitting next to Glitter Zombie, who is drinking a chocolate milkshake whilst having glum expression on her face. Brain Vendor and Coffee Zombie approach them.]

Brain Vendor: "Ma'am, other patrons-" (looks at Coffee Zombie) "-would like to hear non-1980s' styled music playing from the jukebox."

Coffee Zombie: "Yeah, some of us have had enough of this stupid music."


 * [Glitter Zombie turns towards them and angrily glares at them.]

Glitter Zombie: (angrily) "Stupid?!"


 * [The outburst shocks Brain Vendor and Coffee Zombie, who back away, scared.]

Brain Vendor: (scared) "N-Nevermind! You can continue playing the music!"

Glitter Zombie: "Thanks." (sighs and turns to Bikini Zombie) "Sorry for the outburst, I've had a horrible day."

Bikini Zombie: "It's OK, I heard you've had a rough day."


 * [Ghost Pepper suddenly floats through the wall near the two zombies, scaring them.]

Ghost Pepper: "Guys, you should see this."


 * [Outside, a mob (wielding picket signs, pitchforks, and torches) are marching down the street. Bikini Zombie walks up to one of the mob members.]

Bikini Zombie: (curiously) "What's going on?"

Lava Guava: "We're going to find the person who messed with the tree and teach them a lesson!"

Zombie Nurse: "Yeah, the tree was a staple of our Feastivus celebrations. We have to retaliate!"

Popcorn: "Do you or your friends know where the person is, by chance?"


 * [Most of the main characters walk up to the mob.]

Sunflower: "We shall never reveal her location! We're her friends!"

Fishy Imp: "She's in the forest, moping."


 * [Imp tries to cover her mouth.]

Imp: "No she isn't."

Fishy Imp: "Yes she is! She's probably hiding in a cave! You should really-"


 * [Imp Mermaid Zombie stuffs a snowball into her mouth, shutting her up.]

Rotobaga: "Thanks for the tip-off. Onwards everyone!"


 * [The mob march towards the forest while the main characters watch. Parasol Zombie runs by them and stils when she spots the mob. Zombie Commander slides past her and crashes into a snowdune.]

Parasol Zombie: "Why is there an angry mob?"

Dusk Lobber: "They're after Sweet Potato."

Sunflower: "This is getting crazy! We have to do something."

???: "Agreed."


 * [The camera zooms out to reveal Zombie Commander holding a torch and a picket sign decorated with a crossed-out picture of Sweet Potato.]

Zombie Commander: "Sweet Potato must pay for her horrible crimes!"

Ghost Pepper: "No, something to help Sweet Potato."


 * [Zombie Commander flips the sign around, revealing a crossed-out picture of a mob.]

Zombie Commander: "The mob must pay for their horrible crimes!"

Parasol Zombie: (annoyed) "Stop that."

Shrinking Violet: (worried) "I hope Sweet Potato escapes the mob."


 * [The scene cuts to the cave, where Sweet Potato is talking to Vampire Flower, who has a shocked expression on her face.]

Sweet Potato: "And that basically sums up what happened."

Vampire Flower: (shocked) "You indirectly cut down the giant fir tree?!"

Sweet Potato: "By complete accident."

Vampire Flower: "Yeah, but still..."


 * [Faint yelling can suddenly be heard, and the two plants look out of the cave's entrance. They see the mob approaching the cave, and the two plants move away from the entrance.]

Vampire Flower: "People organised a mob?! They really take Feastivus seriously."

Sweet Potato: (panicked) "They've found me! I have to get out of here! Please tell me there's another way out!"

Vampire Flower: "I'm sorry, but this is the only room of the cave, and there's only one exit. There's no way to escape. Unless..." (turns towards Sweet Potato) "Have you every vanted to be a vampire before?"


 * [Her teeth glint, and Sweet Potato looks around nervously. The scene cuts to the cave's outside, and the mob enter the cave. Two small bats then fly out of the cave.]

Repeater: "Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Where is she?! Where is she?!"


 * [The two bats fly into town, and transform back into Sweet Potato and Vampire Flower, who land in the soft snow.]

Sweet Potato: "Thanks. You've really helped."

Vampire Flower: "You're velcome. But I'm going to leave. Garlic is just over there and he scares me."


 * [She motions to Garlic (who is looking around in a panic) before she transforms into a bat and flies away. Sweet Potato hops towards him, and he sees her.]

Garlic: "Sweet Potato, I’ve finally found you! I've heard about the mob looking for you."

Sweet Potato: "Thanks for caring, but could I quickly eat one of your cloves? I got turned into a vampire during this mess of a day."

Garlic: "Of course you can! Curing vampirism makes me feel like I have a purpose."


 * [Sweet Potato bites him, and collapses onto the ground. She then gets up off the ground, now riddem of vampirism.]

Sweet Potato: "Thanks for that."


 * [They start hopping across the street, before Sweet Potato's friends arrive in panic.]

Sweet Potato: "Hey guys."

Shrinking Violet: (panicked) "Sweet Potato! You have to hide, the mob have figured out you're not in the forest anymore they'll be here any-"

???: "There she is!"


 * [The mob appears and surrounds Sweet Potato, who hides behind a Snowman.]

Sweet Potato: (scared) "Look, it was an accident. AN ACCIDENT."

Foot Soldier: "You can't just indirectly destroy a giant fir tree by accident."

Defensive End: "Yeah!"

Grimrose: "Give up, there is no one left to help you."

Parsnip: "Especially not that Snowman you're hiding behind."


 * [The mob closes in, and Sweet Potato whimpers.]

???: "I beg to differ."


 * [The Snowman suddenly hops forward, shocking the others.]

Parsnip: (shocked) "I-It's actually alive?! But how?!"

Sweet Potato: "The power of Feastivus magic!"

Snowman: "Actually, those two."


 * [He points to Rose and Witch Hazel, and everyone looks at them.]

Rose: "We created a Snowman using magic. We didn't know he'd be alive!"

Snowman: "Now everybody, I know that you are angry, but this isn't how we should be acting during Feastivus. We all know what Feastivus is about, and it DEFINITELY doesn't involve hunting people."

Marine Biologist: "What you say may be true, but that's not going to fix the tree, is it?"

Snowman: "Why fix the tree, when you can rewind time so that the tree was never destroyed?"

Nightshade: "And how, exactly, do we do that?"


 * [The Snowman motions to Thyme Warp, who is in the mob looking at the Snowman.]

Sweet Potato: "Of course! Thyme Warp, do you think you could rewind time and fix the tree?"

Thyme Warp: "To try I'll." (I'll try to.)


 * [She hops to the tree, and starts dancing. As soon as she starts, the tree turns bright white and soon rightens itself. Thyme Warp finishes dancing, and the tree is now back to normal.]

Thyme Warp: "It did I, yay!" (Yay, I did it!)


 * [The mob cheers and instantly disperses to go back to their Feastivus activities. Sweet Potato cheers, and her friends approach her.]

Sunflower: "The Snowman is alive? Never saw that coming."

Ghost Pepper: "We live in a world with talking plants and reanimated corpses, at this point I'm not surprised."

Imp: "Now, let's go play in the snow!"


 * [Most of the main characters run towards the giant fir tree and play the surrounding snow. Parasol Zombie starts to walk over to them, but Zombie Commander stops her.]

Zombie Commander: "Parasol Zombie, we still have unfinished business."


 * [Parasol Zombie thinks for a moment, before having an idea.]

Parasol Zombie: "Haven't you heard? The... uh... Worldwide Mistletoe Association has passed a new rule saying that you hug people when under mistletoe. Just hug, nothing else."


 * [Zombie Commander looks at her sceptically, before smiling.]

Zombie Commander: "I can live with that."


 * [She hugs Parasol Zombie, before Parasol Zombie pushes her away.]

Parasol Zombie: "OK, that's enough. Now how about we-"


 * [She gets hit in the head by a snowball, and Zombie Commander is seen smiling whilst holding a snowball.]

Parasol Zombie: "You're gonna pay for that!"


 * [She smiles as she makes a snowball and walks towards Zombie Commander, who runs away. The two start throwing snowballs at each other while laughing and generally having fun.]

Trivia

 * This isn't really trivia, but Merry Christmas, everyone.
 * I feel like this is shorter than my other fanfictions. Just so you know.

Changed content
