I do not own Fairly Odd Parents. Tina is mine.
Court Agreement
Tina woke up the following morning to the sun shining through her window. She rolled over and grunted in pain, as the movement aggravated her injuries. "Ow…" She gingerly climbed out of bed. Her burned arms were wrapped in bandages and tender bruises dotted her face and legs. "I will kill Anit the next time she comes after me. Or at least severely injure her."
She snapped her fingers and glowered at the sparks that emitted from her fingertips. The Fairy Council still hadn't turned off her magic monitors, even after everything that happened.
Okay. Now I'm mad.
Taking a deep breath, she fisted her hands at her sides and hollered, "You can either get these flipping cuffs off right now or I will come down there and make your lives torture! Don't test me!"
Almost instantly the golden cuffs popped off her wrists and Tina smiled in satisfaction. Ha. Don't mess with the blonde! "Thank ya!" she called cheerfully.
She poofed her purple pajamas off and replaced them with a pink halter top, purple bellbottom jeans and white flip-flops. She twisted her blonde hair up into a ponytail and fastened it with her favourite golden band. "Ow!" she yipped when one of her golden bracelets got stuck in her long blonde hair. "Dang it! Not again!"
A nuclear explosion suddenly filled her room with smoke and Tina let out a curse as she was knocked back against her purple chair. "Ouch!"
Jorgen glared at her. "Watch your mouth or I'll wash it out with soap, understood?"
Tina gritted her teeth, biting back a retort. "Understood." She poofed her bracelet free. She rubbed her sore head and arched an eyebrow questioningly at Jorgen. "Would it kill you to knock?"
Jorgen ignored her. "We are late for a court meeting."
So much for joint-custody, Tina thought wearily. Oh well. At least she was willing to makethe effort. Talks probably broke down or something. "Man. Alright. But can we make this quick? I'm sore all over."
Jorgen frowned. "You're half genie. Why don't you just poof the soreness aw-?"
"I forgot, okay?" Tina snapped, flushing red. "It doesn't help that I couldn't use my magic for about a day." She hastily poofed the soreness away. She crossed her arms and scowled. "Can we get this over with?"
Jorgen rolled his eyes and slammed his wand to the floor. They appeared in the courtroom and Tina lazily collapsed in the gold seats. "I hope I don't get my head blown off this time," she muttered.
Monica, Nina, Nicole and Norm hovered beside their lawyer, Jackie. Blonda, Wanda, Jorgen and Fairy Mason hovered on the other side of the table. Tina noted that her grandfather had not shown up. "I guess they gave up too," she mused.
Judge Flickers poofed into the room and he did not look happy. "Unless you people have struck an agreement, then we have reason to be here," he snapped.
"No need to worry," Fairy Mason assured the judge.
Tina arched an eyebrow and propped her feet on the golden seat in front of her. This should be interesting.
"We propose joint-custody. We have the papers right here. All we have to do is sign and get them approved. By you, of course," Fairy Mason said confidently.
Tina actually fell out of her seat in shock. No way. I'm dreaming. This isn't actually happening right now.
Blonda picked up the pen that rested in the middle of the table and scribbled her name in fancy letters on the document. Norm then signed on the next line and Blonda scoffed at his messy scrawl.
Tina hauled herself back up into her seat. She watched in disbelief as both lawyers finished their signatures and finally presented it to Judge Flickers. When he signed it, the document glowed brightly before disappearing.
Oh my gosh. It's actually happening. They finally agreed on something. No more fighting! Or, at least, a whole lot less fighting.
"The living arrangements of Tina have been decided," Judge Flickers declared. "She will spend every other week with Blonda Fairywinkle, and then the other every other week will be spent with Norm Glimmers."
The gravel banged down and the document was sealed and active.
"Well Tina, what do you think?" Judge Flickers asked. "Are you happy with this arrangement?"
Tina stared at him with wide purple eyes for a moment before poofing out of the room in a cloud of purple smoke. Flickers stared at the now-empty spot in surprise. "What'd I say?"
Wanda smiled and propped her chin in her hands. "Nothing at all. She just left to let out her happiness."
"What do you me-?"
An ear-splitting scream pierced the air and shattered the court room windows. Blonda grinned as her daughter's gleeful scream stretched far across Fairy World. She glanced at Norm with a small smirk. "That wasn't so bad. I guess we should have done that a long time ago."
Norm rolled his eyes. "If you weren't so stubborn, then maybe we could have reached this agreement sooner."
"I'm stubborn?" Blonda cried.
Jorgen sighed as Blonda and Norm started bickering. "I suppose that will never change, will it?"
Wanda chuckled. "No. But they are a step closer to treating each other like magical beings. Baby steps, Jorgen. Baby steps."
...
Timmy glanced up from his videogame and grinned as he heard a familiar scream come faintly from the sky above. "Looks like Norm and Blonda signed the document," he said, having been briefed on the whole thing by Wanda.
"Tina sure sounds happy," Cosmo commented, bringing his head out from a large bowl of pudding.
"Yeah," Timmy said softly. "She deserves to be happy."
And Timmy would do whatever he could to make sure she stayed happy.
