Episode one: Carn-evil
Two cups in a kettle house, one named Cuphead and the other Mugman, they both start off to have breakfast, but Cuphead was greedy and took the entire stack of pancakes. Being the good brother for once, he cut the entire plate in half and shared it to his brother, passing the syrup which was a empty bottle of nothing. Cuphead devoured the first half in one bite.
"Cuphead, Mugman!"
"Yes Elder Kettle?"
"Today, you two are in for a real treat!"
The old kettle announced as he stared at the two boys, both Cuphead and Mugman, leaned in with huge grins in their faces. "Really!?"
"You get too paint the fence!" Elder kettle held up two paint cans from behind his back showing them to the boys, their grins turned into a frowns quickly, I would be upset too if I had to paint a fence, they both went outside lazily painting the fence.
"Bleh.."
"Geez, I guess we know what we're doing the rest of the day..huh?" Mugman spoke up with lazy eyes staring over at his brother,
"Ah, banana oil! Paint the fence, milk the goat, patch the roof! It's the same old stuff everyday. What we need is a little fun and adventure." Cuphead waved around his paint brush getting paint everywhere including his brother who is painting the same spot.
"If we could only speed things up, maybe we'd still have time to squeeze in a little fun and adventure at the end." Mugman said, his eyebrows shot up seeing his brother pouring paint into a cannon, "way ahead of ya, pal." Cuphead threw the paint can as he tipped the cannon at the fence, turning around covering his ears, just then Elder Kettle came outside.
"Hey boys, how's that--"
BOOOOM!
Paint everywhere in one spot, uh-oh..Elder Kettle was covered in paint too, Cuphead and Mugman were soon walking around the woods, Cuphead's gloved hands in his pockets.
"Boy..was he steamed.." Mugman sighed, pointing back towards the house.
"Eh, I ain't to worried About it. You know, that should've worked, if only I could have used a little less gunpowder..hmm.." Cuphead tapped his chin. "Oh well." Cuphead shrugged it off like it was nothing, "Let's just focus on getting more paint, and try not to get distracted."
Cuphead pulled Mugman by his handle showing him the Carnival from town, it's bright flashing lights could blind someone, a Ferris wheel going, and a rollercoaster, "Mugman! Look!" The fair music was loud enough they could hear it from the forest.
"Um, Cuphead, I'm not so sure--"
"You know what I do when I'm not sure? I double down!"
"What does that even mean?"
"It means we're going to that Carnival!"
Cuphead said with enthusiasm, he threw his hands up in pizazz, his excitement clear on his face as if candy and a goat ride wasn't enough.
"Absolutely not! There's no way we're go-- AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Some time later..
"I gotta hand it to ya Cuphead, that was great! And we still have time to get supplies and fix the fence.." Mugman paused looking for his brother, "Cuphead?" he found him over at the Soul ball machine.
Cuphead's eyes blinked at the bright glowing words, 'WIN BIG!' Cuphead picked up a ball, putting on his game face throwing the ball in one go, immediately winning. The voice yelled WINNER! The whole time he won every round.
"Eh? Eh?" Cuphead grinned at his brother in the back, Mugman thumbs up. Cuphead bounced the ball still winning, he pulled up his pants tight, throwing the ball under his leg winning again, in a mirror backwards, he kicked the ball back and forth, landing on his nose and around his head throwing it towards the goal.
A crowd began to circle him, Mugman looked over at someone else playing soul ball as they lost, the machine shook violently sucking out the person's soul into the machine, Mugman looked around, "Soul..Ball." He took a look at everyone around the fair finding them looking gray and depressed.
A Pig kept shoving the hotdog in his nose not even trying to eat it, Mugman looked up at the Carnival's sign, "Carnival..Carn-evil..EVIL!?"
Mugman gasped audibly, looking over at his brother in fear who was still winning the game, "Uh..Cuphead..?" "Not now Mugsy! I'm on a hot streak.." Cuphead continued to throw the ball and win.

I was walking along the forest trying to stay away from the town, people would scream everytime they seen me, because I'm human, not a cup, mug, phone, fork, screwdriver or whatever, I looked weird, but I was on a mission to help people who would accept me.
I overheard the word winner going off over and over again, I look over hearing some fair music as well, a Carnival? I run towards it reading the sign, it's the same thing that happened years ago, people started screaming because of the devil showing up, I was just a kid, my older brother was playing soul ball and kept winning but died because of me..I caused him to lose. As of now people were screaming and running again, I look around finding a weapon to protect myself with, I seen two guys running away from the devil, they looked like twins?
"THIS IS ALL MY FAULTTT!"
"WE SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAVE COME HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE! IT'S ALL MY FAULT!"
"YOUR RIGHT! IT IS YOUR FAULT!"
They both whined from afar, I seen the devil gaining on them, shooting fire at them, they screamed, I watched them get on the rollercoaster, as the Devil blew it up. Now they were on the horse ride, the devil turned the horses into skeletons.
"What the.."
They both ran towards the picture frame, as they took a quick photo and started running again. They ran into the scary house, which made it more scarier since the devil turned it into him. "What the hell is happening.."
I ran towards the fair to try and find them to save them, I found them running away again. "Hey you two! Follow me!" I yell towards them, I grab them by their handles. "Pretend like we're cornered!" "We are cornered!" As the Devil shot fire, I put them out the way as the fire aims towards the soul machine, it released every single soul the devil collected.
"NOOOOOO!"
I ran out of the fair with them, "hey you guys ok!" I asked, we continue to run "yeah thank you! What's your name?" "Me? I'm Y/n, just call me n/n."
"Wow..your so cool!"
"Aww thanks."
We started to slow down, as I catch my breath, I follow them home making sure no one would mess with us, "Ok this is you guys." I said, I look up at them, they were tall but still a bit short. (REMEMBER THEY ARE AGED UP!)

"What an amazing day. We rode rides."
"You owe the devil your soul."
"We played games."
"And you owe the Devil your soul."
"We're almost finished with this dumb fence."
"And you owe the Devil your soul!"
"Eh. I ain't to worried about it." I pour paint inside the cannon again, aiming it towards the fence.
"Hey, boys, how--"
BOOOM!
"Still too much gunpowder.."
"And you still owe the Devil your soul."
