Anti-Sparky's butterfly disaster

Quanktumspirit: "I wanted to write a one-shot tale about Anti-Sparky. In this, he's been adopted by Timmy. And this is one of their adventures together."


It was a lovely new morning in Dimmsdale. Timmy was sleeping in his bed, with Sparky and Anti-Sparky sleeping next to each other on his bed. Cosmo, Wanda and Poof were in their fish forms, swimming inside the fishbowl and they had nothing to do until Timmy woke up.

Timmy just did, his Crash Nebular alarm clock rang, Timmy, hit the snooze button and opened his eyes. He was beaming as he clapped eyes with his two beloved pets.

"Good morning Timmy," Anti-Sparky beamed as he stretched.

Sparky beamed and asked Timmy. "Did you sleep well?"

"I sure did guys; and you two?" Timmy asked, happy.

"I had a fantastic dream; dancing with Anti-Sparky around Dimmsdale park." Sparky beamed.

"I was enjoying; watching the Titanic sink, again and again, this time no one made it out." Anti-Sparky chuckles darkly.

Timmy blinked, he still had to get used to Anti-Sparky enjoying nightmares beyond anything he could comprehend. They went as far as murder, deaths, executions and destructions that have already happened, Anti-Sparky was just dreaming of the joy to re-watch them all.

The teenager shrugged his shoulders and got dressed for the new day, Cosmo and Wanda left and dropped Poof of at school.

Anti-Sparky and Sparky got washed, and as Timmy was done they headed downstairs for some breakfast. Whiles Timmy was chewing on some bland cereal, Sparky and Anti-Sparky munched on some dog biscuits.

Afterwards, Timmy left for school and Sparky and Anti-Sparky sat in the living room, they relaxed next to each other and talked about various things, mostly about their ex-owners and what happened as to why they were abandoned, or their own theories.


Later that afternoon, Sparky and Anti-Sparky just woke up from a nap as Timmy came back.

"Hi Sparky and Anti-Sparky," Timmy beamed.

Sparky and Anti-Sparky embraced their owner. Timmy smiles and feeds both dogs, before sitting down to do his homework.

Anti-Sparky sat with him and helped Timmy solve the complicated problems he so despises. Anti-Sparky was a whizz-kid at school, he could explain and teach Timmy; mathematics, geometry, history, English language and grammar, and any further questions Timmy has.

That way; Timmy's schooling performances were getting better and he started getting Bs and As rather than Fs.


After Timmy's homework was all done, Cosmo, Wanda and Poof showed up again. Cosmo then had an idea.

"Hey Timmy, seeing as your parents have left you alone again, how about we all head to the park to enjoy this spring day?" Cosmo suggested.

Timmy smiled and nodded his head, Cosmo, Wanda and Poof transformed into humans and attached Sparky and Anti-Sparky to a lead. The family smiled, Wanda packed a big picnic together and the family was all set to go out.


They walked along the sidewalks and Sparky smiled at Anti-Sparky. The 'pack' was set up like this; Cosmo and Wanda next to each other pushing Poof in a pram, Timmy walking beside the pram on Poof's right-hand side, Sparky and Anti-Sparky attached to two dog leads walking ahead of the family, the dog leads being held by Timmy.

After walking for a while, Anti-Sparky suddenly froze in his movements; a small blue butterfly flew and landed on Poof's small baby nose. The Fairy baby chuckled and swat at it. Anti-Sparky shook his head, the family moved on and Anti-Sparky continued following them, his body was shaking a bit for a while.

As they reached their spot Timmy set the blanket up, Wanda got the plates and cups out, Cosmo placed the food down and also fed Sparky and Anti-Sparky. The two dogs smiled and thanked Cosmo for the bone he gave them. Whiles the two munched on the bones the family ate their sandwiches, sausage rolls, jam tarts and other treats they had.

After lunch, Timmy smiled at his two dogs, "Hey Sparky, Anti-Sparky; let's play fetch."

"Oh boy, yes please, Timmy." Anti-Sparky and Sparky beamed.

Timmy got a ball out and threw it, Sparky smiled, jumped and raced after the ball, he caught it and handed it back to Timmy.

"Your turn, Anti-Sparky," Timmy smiled and threw the ball a bit further than before.

Anti-Sparky beamed, "Oh boy."

He shot after the ball, it landed behind a bush. Anti-Sparky sniffed the earth and found the ball, but just as he picked it up; a small white butterfly landed on his nose.

"Oh no... b... b... BUTTERFLY!" Anti-Sparky suddenly screamed.

Timmy blinked, Anti-Sparky shot back from the bush to Timmy's side and hid behind him.

"Stay away from me." Anti-Sparky repeated again and again, "Stay away from me and my family, stay away from me and my family, stay away from me and my family, stay away from me and my family."

Sparky raised a confused eyebrow, "Anti-Sparky calm down, nothing to worry about."

But Anti-Sparky still hid and shook in his body, Timmy and Sparky looked at each other and then looked back over to Anti-Sparky. Tears were building up and the Anti-Dog was howling and screaming in fear.

"Timmy, I think it's best if we go home," Sparky said, worried.

Anti-Sparky had already summoned his chew toy up and chewed it repeatedly, his heart rate has accelerated itself into orbit and he was sweating and panicking madly.

Timmy nodded his head and wished for them to return home.


Once home, Anti-Sparky hid in the bedroom and shook underneath Timmy's bed.

"No more butterflies, no more butterflies, no more butterflies." Anti-Sparky whispered, "They just bring bad luck to Anti-Fairy family owners, they just bring bad luck to Anti-Fairy family owners. No butterflies, please no more butterflies."

But one such butterfly landed on Timmy's windowsill. Timmy, Cosmo, Wanda, Poof and Sparky awwed at it and smiled.

"AAAAAAAAHHHH!" Anti-Sparky screamed.

He blasted with his tail at Timmy's floor and shot into the living room, into the ground floor.

Timmy blinked, he walked up to the hole and looked through it. "This is getting ridiculous. We need an Anti-Fairy's help. Cosmo, Wanda, Poof; I wish Foop would visit us, right now."

The Fairies blinked but did as Timmy asked.

Foop appeared in his armchair, reading a book about traps and torture.

The Anti-Fairy raised a confused eyebrow as he realised where he was now and sighed. He took his reading glasses off and placed his black monocle back into his eye, to be able to see the people who called him over.

"Can you idiots please explain to me; why I was summoned from my home on my only free day?" Foop snapped and looked around the room, "What's going on?"

Timmy just pointed to the floorboards.

Foop blinked, flew towards it and saw Anti-Sparky; shivering and shaking on the living room couch. Foop rolled his eyes, poofed Anti-Sparky back into Timmy's bedroom, fixed the floor back to normal, before sitting Anti-Sparky down.

He looked at his old friend and saw tears threatening to fall from his face, Anti-Sparky was still shaking and whimpering.

Foop sighed, embraced Anti-Sparky before stroking him.

"Calm down Anti-Sparky, you are safe, nothing will harm you," Foop spoke out calmly.

He could see Anti-Sparky was anything but calm, Foop poofed Anti-Sparky into his dog basket and then everyone into the living room, leaving Anti-Sparky alone in the bedroom.

Foop faced Timmy, Wanda, Cosmo, Poof and Sparky.

"Ok guys, what happened to Anti-Sparky? As far as I have known him he was never scared of anything, when did his fears begin?" Foop asked annoyed.

Sparky blinked, "Well Foop, we six went to the park for a picnic, we had our meal, played catch and fetch with Timmy,... until Anti-Sparky had to run after the ball, he saw a butterfly and suddenly began panicking. He screamed back to our side, we returned home and he just continues begging; no butterflies, no butterflies, no butterflies. They just bring bad luck to Anti-Fairy family owners, they just bring bad luck to Anti-Fairy family owners. No butterflies, please no more butterflies. That's exactly what he said."

Foop stared shocked at Sparky, he quickly flew to Anti-Sparky and embraced him. He stroked calmly over Anti-Sparky's head and sat down, heaving the Anti-Fairy dog onto his lap.

"I see. Anti-Sparky, calm down, the evil b-word won't harm you. Calm down, you won't lose anything, calm down, calm down." Foop repeated in his own trance.

Anti-Sparky's shivering slowly stopped. Foop sat, like in a trance, on the couch and calmed Anti-Sparky so far down, that the dog was almost back to normal. He breaths one more time before facing Foop and the others again.

"I... Foop, thanks for calming me down," Anti-Sparky smiled, "And Timmy, Cosmo, Wanda, Poof and Sparky... I'm sorry that I ruined the picnic."

Timmy blinked, "But why were you so scared of a small butterfly, Anti-Sparky? They don't do anything bad. I think the butterfly should fear you more than you of him."

Anti-Sparky hung his head, tears fell down his face. Foop sighed, seeing as Anti-Sparky still didn't want to speak about it, it will be up to him.

"Timmy, you do know how we Anti-Fairy babies are born, right?" Foop asked, "And what the female Anti-Fairy throws up?"

Timmy blinked, "What has that got to do with butterflies or Anti-Sparky's fear of them?"

"Well, Timmy. Anti-Fairy females throw up butterflies as one sign of their pregnancy. Most couples, who have had a house pet beforehand and can't use the pet as anything more than a 'toy', usually get rid of said pet before the baby is born. So, if I understand Anti-Sparky's fears correctly, he was terrified of the butterflies, thinking he was going to lose his home with you, Sparky, Cosmo, Wanda and Poof." Foop explained and then faced Anti-Sparky.

Anti-Sparky whined and nodded his head, he bowed his head to Timmy and his Fairies down whiles shaking.

"I wanna be a good doggy for you all, I wanna be a good doggy for you all," Anti-Sparky whispered, his body shaking.

Sparky blinked, "I know. Come, Timmy. We have a bit of shopping to do. Foop can you stay here with Anti-Sparky and keep your eye on him?"

Foop raised a confused eyebrow. "Um... ok?"

Sparky grabbed Timmy and the two vanished from the spot. Foop faced Anti-Sparky, but the Anti-dog didn't have a clue over what Sparky was up to.


Timmy found himself and Sparky by the Grim Reaper's pet shop.

Sparky grabbed his lead and made Timmy hold it. He flew into the shop and scanned around the stuff, all available for countless odd-sounding pets. As Sparky found what he was looking for he nodded, got a certificate for it and poofed himself and Timmy back home.


At home, Foop was playing with Anti-Sparky cards for a while, as a poof brought them back to the now time, the teen and Anti-Fairy dog looked up from their game.

Timmy faced them and shook his head, "Ok, please enough poofing everyone, I am starting to see stars."

"Sorry, Timmy. Anyhow; come here, Anti-Sparky sit next to Timmy and Foop sit on the other side." Sparky smiled.

Anti-Sparky raised a confused eyebrow, Foop blinked, but the two did as they were asked. Sparky smiled and pulled Timmy next to Anti-Sparky's other side.

Anti-Sparky faced his beaming counterpart, "Sparky, what are you up to?"

"Timmy, can you please officially adopt Anti-Sparky into our family? And Foop, will you be ok to give Timmy all the responsibilities of Anti-Sparky over to him?" Sparky asked beaming.

Timmy blinked, "Sure, I've grown to love Anti-Sparky as my own pet, anyway."

"If it means I can have my peace and quiet to continue plotting, sure you may Timmy," Foop said, shrugging his shoulders.

Foop and Timmy signed the adoption forms and Anti-Sparky's eyes widened surprised. Foop left again as he was sure Anti-Sparky will stop panicking and Timmy embraced Anti-Sparky hard to his chest.

"You have nothing to fear anymore Anti-Sparky. Our family will never leave you, ever." Timmy beamed.

Anti-Sparky smiled and nodded his head.


Anti-Sparky then left with Sparky outside and the two dogs sat by the kennel. They could fit each other quite comfortably in it. But for now, they just sat down and faced up towards the full moon, shining down on them.

"A happy family Anti-Sparky. And if Timmy says he will never leave, then he means it." Sparky smiled at his friend.

"Thank you, Sparky, my best friend." Anti-Sparky smiled, "And I know now; I have nothing to fear of butterflies, even if we see a lot of them over our lives, I know now Timmy won't give up on me and hand me back to the shop, but still love me through all the years."

Sparky nodded his head and kissed Anti-Sparky on his lips. The two dogs went to bed and fell fast asleep.


The next morning after school; Timmy decided to take Anti-Sparky back to the park. He wanted to try and help Anti-Sparky get over the fear of butterflies.

They had another picnic and then, later on, played on a playground, inside a small forest and by a stream. They had a lot of fun.

As they were packing up, Timmy spotted a red butterfly close to Anti-Sparky's head. He walked carefully up to Anti-Sparky and petted him, to calm him down.

Anti-Sparky spotted the butterfly as well, but he breathed steadier, "Timmy loves me, Sparky loves me. They won't leave me because of a butterfly. Butterflies only come through an Anti-Fairy pregnancy, neither Timmy nor Sparky are pregnant and there aren't any Anti-Fairies near us."

Timmy beamed, Anti-Sparky faced his two best friends and beamed as well. These fears were reducing themselves, his two best friends were still with him. The three friends embraced each other and Timmy wished them back home.

Sure, for Anti-Sparky it was a new and slightly scary experience to complete, not to be scared of butterflies anymore. But he was sure with his two best friends next to him, he will muster the courage and believe in a family that will never turn its back on him. Ever.
