Once upon a time, there was a group of emotions named Angry, Confuse, Happy, Sad, Excited, and Shocked. One day, they decided to play a game of hide and seek. Happy was "it" and had to find all the others.

First, Happy found Angry hiding behind a tree, but Angry was so mad that he didn't want to play anymore and stomped away. Next, Happy found Confuse who was lost and wandering in circles. Happy helped Confuse find the others, and Confuse was grateful and joined the game.

Excited was hiding under a bush, and when Happy found him, he jumped up with joy and ran around in circles, making everyone laugh. Sad was hiding in a cave, feeling blue, but Happy cheered her up by tickling her until she smiled.

Finally, Happy found Shocked hiding in a closet. Shocked was so surprised that he couldn't speak for a moment, but then he burst out laughing and everyone joined in, including Angry who came back to see what the commotion was about.

In the end, they all hugged each other and promised to play together again soon, no matter what mood they were in. And they all lived happily ever after!
