It begins with early morning and upon the screen super imposed we see the title:

Thumbelina a magical story

The camera moves slowly to the left until we’re looking at a river.

Once upon a time…

As such we see a quaint little entrance to a small village in England and right on cue we see a toco toucan fly in. As he does some soft but cheery music plays and he hums along to the melody.

Then as if he noticed the audience he greets, "Hello and welcome new friends! My name is Rafael, and welcome Tokyo, home to greatest adventures!"

And he takes flight again this time singing lyrics

Rafael: You sure to do impossible things
If you follow your heart
You sure to fly on magical wings
When you follow your heart!


Soon he flies straight into what seems to be an old tower filled with lots of antiques and he comes to rest on a make-shift nest out of rags as he finishes the final notes.

You sure to do impossible things…
When you follow your heart!
When you follow… your heart!


Finally he nestles down and says, "You know I like good stories. Now these are stories with beings that have impossible problems." And to show what he means the camera pans over the titles of the books. "But the most impossible of all these stories is impossibly small!"

And we finally see the camera land on a brown book with golden letters and Thumbelina says the name, "Thumbelina…"

The screen pauses for a brief second before Rafael continues, "But it’s not the story you know. This is a story… about struggle, strife and friendship. But mostly, it's a story about a little girl in her journey of self-discovery."

This story begins about a few months after the events of the digiworld-

A random voice interrupts: Rafael! Are there gonna be any changelings in the story

“Well yes, lots of them”

“What about mice and bats?” another voice asked

“I believe there are,”

“How about the citizens of Equestria?” another random voice asked.

“Yeah, any chances we might see the mane six?” the other voice asked.

“Guys, please am I gonna tell the story or are you going to try and guess it?” Rafael said sternly

“Sorry…” the voices chorused.

Now as I was saying, this story begins about a few months after the events of the Digiworld adventure. In the town of Odaiba, where the ethereal guardians and their friends continued their training. No one ever forgot the grand adventure the digidestined had endured.  

Now the story of Thumbelina has always been among the most magical of all fairy tales. In this case you might say that it became more than magical.

You see the Ethereal guardians have taken upon themselves to train apprentices. However one of them had a terrible problem. Although they befriended the digidestined and took it upon themselves to teach them everything they needed to know in battling the forces of evil…

One of them, Mimi Tachikawa was spoiled, superficial and refused to fight/battle to defend.

She was fine with most of the girls except for Dana, Theo and Beth, who she is constantly always arguing because of their different taste and view on many matters.  

It shows Toon-town, where many characters lived especially the best place the Ethereal guardians would meet with many toon friends from all over the Etherium.

Right now a stage coach was passing by until a ball came rolling by startling the horse and driver.

Out from the corner, a pretty ten- year old brunette girl, wearing a red dress with brown gloves, with pink socks and white brown-shoes.  She had her hair tied in a ponytail with a yellow scrunchy.

This was Mimi Tachikawa one of the digidestined, partner of Palmon and owner of the crest of sincerity.

“Watch where you’re going! It’s dangerous!” scolded the driver

Mimi picked up the ball and looked at the driver glaring. “It’s a free country, I’m walking here!” she snapped before blowing a raspberry.

Later the two Pantheon siblings were discussing with Sora Takenouchi, another of the Digidestined, in a small glen with a gigantic oak tree in the backyard of their home.

Beth, the middle child had short blood-red hair with a few cowlicks and her eyes were large, blue and intense. And she wore a pink sweater and jean-overalls.

She was feisty, tomboyish and adventure loving, though acts like a brat with unfair and cruel people.  

Accompanying her was the youngest, a rosy- cheeked little girl with long, flaxen hair and dew green eyes that inspired innocence.

She was one those kids, who really loved animals all kinds which is why she preferred stuffed animals, tons of pets than the usual stuff.  (They do not come into story much and you’ll soon see why.)

“Mimi, did that?” inquired Sora

“I’m concerned about her attitude and what future she might have if keeps acting like a baby,” complained Beth.

A scream is heard inside the oak tree startling the three girls. So they rush in by pulling a certain branch, which opened a hole within the tree. They jumped in sliding down a tunnel that lead underground, they landed on a soft cushioned floor made for landing.

Inside was one large room, which was like being inside a cottage cabin and where the girls practiced their magic lessons from Hogwarts and taught the kids everything they needed to know.

But now this wasn’t was the case, for the scream had belonged to Mimi. One would think she was being attacked, yet in this case something must’ve startled her.

She was in one of the rooms, looking at something in the corner of the area.

“There’s a mouse in the room!” She screamed.

“Hey! What’s with all the racket?” Beth asked.

A book a thrown into Beth’s face, much to her chagrin though it was meant for the rodent which had scurried by.

“I don’t like mice - get it out!” Mimi shrieked.

“So you don’t like mice, Mimada?” smirked Dana, picking up the little mouse.

She brings the little animal closer to Mimi’s face, who grows more scared.

“Promise you’ll stop complaining about everything.”

“Quit it!” She wailed then gets up and rushes out the door, “You’re all SO mean!”

“What a crybaby!” Dana said

Beth along with Sora sighed how long will this behavior go on? It was bad enough they didn’t see eye to eye. And frankly the keeper of the Heart was tired of fighting and arguing over petty matters all the time.

Now when you have a serious problem you’d see a shrink, but in this case if you’re a magical guardian trying to teach your young students the ropes, you’d have to see your supernatural superiors.

As Rafael narrates these, the red haired tomboy approaches a cottage in the woods, she knocks on the door.

“Yes.”

“Carolinus, it’s me Beth one of your students.”

The door opened to reveal a fair skinned ancient man with a long white beard, with vibrant green eyes. His robes were an olive green with a matching cap and a collar flecked with green stars and crescent moons joined together. His name is Carolinus, the green wizard of nature's realm.

“Come in,” He gestures to Beth to enter the cottage, “What can I do for you child?”

“Um Hi, I came to talk about one of my apprentices…one of the girls.”

“Do you wish for her to stop being wild and behave?”

“No, it’s not that she’s wild. She’s a coward, shallow, prissy and complains a lot.”  

“I believe being this active is a sign of being a lady.”

“Physically yes, but not mentally. But the thing is, she’s chosen as one of the digidestined but she refuses to battle the forces of evil and always talks material stuff like shopping and fashion. Me, Theo and Dana are always fighting with her and we can’t to see anything in common to agree on.”

“What is her name?”

“Mimi Tachikawa.”

“How old is she?”

“She’s ten years old.”

“Hmmm...Let’s see what we can see…” he looks into his crystal ball,

Spirits I hereby call,
look into this crystal ball,
And seek one who is free yet not wild,
Let us see this problem child.”


In the crystal ball. visions of the past appear showing the brunette girl, complaining, acting spoiled when she was a princess and her arguing with Beth.

“You were right to come here, she is worse than you have described. But I also see her being is full of good feelings and with many love. Yet stern measures must be taken. This means we’ll have to use the strongest magic.”

He pulls out a book which was titled Thumbelina, “You must get her to read this book.”

“A fairytale? Do you think she’ll go for it?” Beth asked hesitantly

“Just get her interested in this book and when you come around, she’ll become more responsible and wise.”  He then says sternly to Beth, “But remember don’t force her to read, because that would have a very contrary defect.”

“Alright,” Beth said.
Summary

Unable to control her spoiled whining student Mimi Tachikawa, who always fights with Dana, an exhausted Beth seeks the guidance of her ancient in the realm of Magic.

He gives her a magical copy of the fairy tale Thumbelina and tells her to read this to Mimi. Later, when everyone falls asleep (Like in sleeping beauty), Mimi shrinks and pulled inside the world of the book.

Princess Celestia appears and tells her that she is in her friends’ dream world and that in order to return to normal, she must find a way to wake them up. To do this, she must travel to a faraway southern land to talk to the Lion King, who will help her reach home. During the journey she faces many trials and hardships; along the way she befriends members of the dream world, who band together to help reach the land of the South.

All characters belong to their respective creators save for my ocs.

Here's the first part of this parody with lots of cartoon crossovers.

Author's notes:

- The toucan Rafael is from the movie "Rio"

-Beth and Dana Pantheon are two of my OC's for the DBZ, W.I.T.C.H. and Winxclub fandom.

- "Mimada" is a Spanish word for spoiled – Beth uses it as an insult to Mimi’s name.

- The wizard Carolinus is one of the magical brothers from the movie Flight of Dragons.
