Ollie, Eddie and Zippy were role swapped, instead being friends, now becoming villains and becoming side characters. Christopher Demi made concepts for 2 new main characters called "Abbie" and "Lana". Grace rejected these concepts as she preferred concepts by Jenny. besides, Demi was the music leader, not an Artist, that's his *only* role.

1940's

1940 - Gabriella was blueprinting a new and improved studio, with different studio blocks, multiple floors, a pharmacy, and built in cartoon hotel. Harold wasn't aware of this, busy focused on the war going off over seas.

Jenny Sasha then began to create 8 more cartoon characters, who were also brought to life. bringing the shows cast to 17. who were also brought to life. The studio was full of staff and toons, producing the cartoons, Whilst Alice was silently left in the dust, patrolling the studio behind the scenes. The show was renamed to "The Clarabel Shorts!".

1943 - Ollie, Eddie and Zippy were the last toons to be brought to life, along with Zippy's little brother called "Chippy Chip". Their memories involving Alice were erased, Ollie lost his feelings for Alice. Gabriella had to do something with Alice, as she was at this point useless. She brought her to an abandoned room, and locked her up in there, leaving her to be abandoned in there, who knows what happened to her.

1944 - Engel discovered what the outside world is, and was in love with it, wanting to just get out there and see the world! Clarabel however wanted to stay indoors, too in love of the studio to leave it. Later, Clarabel discovered the basement, and found the rituals in the basement, Grace's satanic rituals and candles, she was curious, but she liked it. Later that year, Jenny and Christopher fell in love and began dating!

1945, the year before disaster

1945 - WW2 ended, Harold returned to see his passion project, completely different, He was heartbroken. Confronting Gabriella. She was completely different than when he first met her, a heartless corporate leader. She divorced him and kicked him out. He did keep the house however, and left to live there for the rest of his days in shambles. Laster that year, the Studio began public tours for civilians! letting them tour the studio, with the help of The Tourist Trio (Circle, Bloomie and Thavel!). Engel gets self-aware, Him and Grace have a verbal fight in her office about him being stuck in the studio and how he's best to stay in the studio for good. During all this, Alice was still in the abandoned room. Envious of her replacement's accomplishments, getting angrier and violent, her room was in ruin, holes in the walls and busted ink pipes. not long enough before she plots something.

1946, the year of reckoning

July 5th 1946, 1:56PM - Alice was a changed woman now. She was a mass of boiling hot ink, somewhat in the physique of a woman, though horribly disfigured and with a long snake like tail, dripping blots of ink all over her body, she controlled the studios ink, and moved it around to form writings on the wall, saying things like "Follow my Trail", Clarabel saw these and followed the signs to the room, she opened the door and was met with a monster. She then took her and ripped into her body, she was tall, chunky and bloated, oozing ink and her eye was busted. She was tall and gross. She was, "The Glissade Demon".  Alice took over Clarabel's body and went on a rampage. She tattered the walls with ink and cracks, ruining the building and busting ink pipes. Hundreds of innocents were murdered, including toons, who were mutilated, drowned, and killed. She killed the staff, Dismembering The Tourist Trio, Decapitating Sasha, Crushing Demi under a piano and boiling Emily to death. The only survivors were Bubble, Lana and Engel. Bubble was heavily injured but survived her attacks and hid to the basement, Lana hid away in the ventilation and fled the scene. Engel however was fortunate to escape the building in time, as the door was unlocked during opening times.  Grace was the last to be killed, She was pinned to an upside down cross and was ripped to shreds, limb by limb by her own creation.

July 6th - The studio was shut down to the public, and was blocked off permanently, yet was never demolished. Engel was left out in the real world to roam freely, he ran to Harold Grace's Home. Harold was a much older man now, and decided to take Engel in.

30 years passed, Engel and Harold lived together and the studio was an underground cult, toons and reanimated corpses being nothing but cultists, praising the Glissade Demon like a god.

1976, The Year of rebellion

1976 - Engel was given a letter from Paper Productions, to come back and pay them a visit. Engel decided to come back, 30 years must've done something to make the studio return to normal.. right?

Engel went to the entrance, and nervously opened the door. He came across many monsters, iterations of all his old friends, He ran face to face with The Glissade Demon after turning on the Ink Machine one more time, He got kidnapped by Skell, who was the cult leader. He met up with a failed duplicate of Abbie, he stayed with the Abbie clone. He was chased by The Twisted Bully Trio", he fought off "The Electritionist" (Twisted Ruby). Engel met "The Twisted Sudd-Bubble", nearly dying to her, Bubble kidnapped the Abbie clone. Engel tried to save the clone, but he THEN faced off "The Martyr Trio" who was an amalgamation of Circle, Bloomie and Thavel. He was too late to save Abbie, he was turned into a Frankenstein monster. "Rotten Abbie". He killed Abbie until running into Lana, who was a survivor brute. She took him in, she was living with yet ANOTHER Abbie clone. (Turns out some toons have multiple clones of themselves)  The three toons decided to strike the source of the studios problem, and faced off the Glissade Demon. Alice had enough and completley ditched Clarabels body. Clarabel was dropped to the floor and Fainted, Alice's black mass loomed over the three. A long fight broke out. Until Engel found a hidden away reel labeled "Finale." Engel grabbed the reel and latched it into a projector, Alice couldn't look away. She was fixated on the screen, seeing her old show's ending. She screamed and yelled. She began to melt, her body horrifically turning into a pile of ink sludge. Clarabel woke up, fucking pissed. She went to Alice and crushed her head to death under her shoe, this action ultimately ending the rebellion of Paper Productions.

at the end of the year, Harold Grace sadly passed away in his sleep, warm in his bed living a whole 107 years.
