Fan Fiction

The Spring Sprite is a character from Disney's 38th full-length animated feature film Fantasia 2000. She appears in the Firebird Suite sequence (also known as L'oiseau de feu), inspired by the 1980 eruption of Mt. Saint Helens, as the main protagonist.

As her name implies, she is a nature spirit who has the ability to handle the environment in order to manage its inhabitants' lives. If ever a disastrous event affects them, like with the Firebird incident, it's up to her to solve that problem by using her ecological powers. She is also a member of the Justice Society Incarnate.

Background[]

Personality[]

Cquote1
You have brought me to eternal life... from my peaceful rest.. my savior. I am ever so much thankful of you.
—A grateful Spring Sprite, in her water form, to the Elk.
Cquote2

The Spring Sprite is a benevolent force of life and creation. She loves the forest and its creatures, and is happy to bring spring every year. When she was awakened by her friend, the Elk, she felt very grateful of him as he gave him a embracing hug. As a force of creation, she has a creative and artistic side, seen when she forms a flower, has a second thought, and then turns it into a dazzling sight, and revitalizes a barren tree with gorgeous blossoms.

The Sprite displayed a distinct sense of curiosity, as she was puzzled as to why she could not make flora grow on a mountainside, and studied, only to unintentionally unleash her polar opposite, the Firebird, a living primal force of destruction, and horrified by the destruction that followed.

Once the disaster ceased, she was crippled with grief at the loss of so much life, and guilt-ridden for causing it by awakening the Firebird. The Elk, however was able to cheer her up and give her hope when she saw her tears began to heal the land, and rejoiced when she was able to restore the forest.

All in all, the Spring Sprite is truly a loving being of creation and life, and found strength and hope in realizing that no matter how much is lost to Destruction, Creation is limitless, as is the constant renewal of Life.

Her eyes have the color that stands between yellow and light orange, and above them are thick black eyebrows. She is slender. Sometimes, between her hips and arms is a kind of curtain made of leather, that she uses to make flight easier, but she can remove it if she want.

History[]

Early Life[]

Before the ballet of Igor Stravinsky, the Firebird Suite segment of Fantasia 2000 began, her backstory took place since the big bang. Over eight thousand years ago, the Spring Sprite was one of the very first nature spirits, out of five (alongside her three twin sisters of the other three seasons, and her future fiance the Autumn Sprite) to exist, and be sealed in a grave inside a dead hollowed tree standing on a massive lagoon, and to arrive on Earth. The sprite slept in her graveyard tree for over 8000 years, until an Elk found the hiding place, before waking her up and unleashing her upon the world.

Role in the Firebird suite segment of Fantasia 2000[]

EaS gliWAAA-Haj

The Sprite first appears in the sequence where snowmelt drips down in a hidden pool. In the form of a Water Sprite, she merges from the pool to meet the Elk and he leads her out of the hidden alcove and she grants his wish, to bring the time of spring to life, her body turning green and melting the snow away for the coming of the Spring season, covering the forest in fresh foliage. Going up a nearby mountain though, her abilities aren't following her up the slope. Curious as to what's going on, she looks inside the massive crater of the mountain at a small volcanic stone. Touching the stone, it awakens the Firebird, who rises from the ash, smoke and magma to attack the Sprite and destroy the forest. Running for dear life from the flames and lava flows, the Firebird eventually chases her up a tree where the monster rises up for one final attack. Cutting to the aftermath where the landscape has turned grey and ash-covered, the Elk finds a burnt out and grey Sprite, in Ash form. The Elk helps her up and gives her a ride on his antlers as the Sprite cries from the destruction she unleashed. Soon she realizes her tears are healing the land and takes back to the sky in a Rain form, bringing a healing shower down upon the valley. Continuing her work, she bring the plant life back to the forest, restoring the trees and finally covering the volcano in a fresh layer of grass, her confidence fully restored. She then later, magically disappeared in a flash, after bursting out a joyous laughter.

Role after the segment[]

A year later, the Spring Sprite met up with her sisters, of fall, winter, and summer from seperate contacts, and told them what happened last year. Later, she was engadged to the Autumn Sprite, for years, because of how much they loved each other, before they awoke from their sleep, until they were married. A month later, the Spring Sprite became pregnant with a big belly, and after nine months, she gave birth to a cute and beautiful pink colored-nature spirit girl, and named her "Blossom". That night, after Blossom's birth, the Spring Sprite told her a story about what happened during her existance last year when she first started bringing the new life of spring to her home forest, and escaping from the Firebird's wrath of destruction. All day, Every day, all night, and every night, the spring sprite would carry infant Blossom, clutched between her breasts and her belly, while she continues her work of bringing the time of spring to life.

Cquote2

Like the Disney princesses with animal kindness, the Sprite always cares for her insect and animal friends who can help her through tough times, since she created them, while she brings the life of spring to the forest. She communicates with butterflies, dragonflies, mantises, honey bees, bumblebees, ladybugs, beetles, and every other forest creature she likes. She also helps newborn insects transform faster, like from caterpillars to beautiful butterflies, ladybirds to pretty ladybugs, naiads to dragonflies, and dozens of other insects. Eventually, all the insects worshiped, and once thanked her for giving them birth upon her unleashment and awakening upon Earth, and told her that they've been honored to worship her, and they loved her so much, and to this she replied, "I love all of you, too, my little friends." and she shook her head off, with a short giggle, like a beautiful beauty with long and big wavy hair.

Enemies[]

The Firebird[]

E31d1c849176d26c6fbc66ef60dfa8fa

While an enemy of the sprite, she is fearful of coming near him again after what happened. Knowing very well that he's able to destroy her home in a heartbeat. Closer than the outer wall of the mountain she won't go because of that. Afraid she would disturb him again and events will repeat themselves.

Water Sprite: ...yes. This could definitely work.
Elk: Anyway... Do you think you could.. proceed thru the forest and show me your magic as you bring it here for me?
Water Sprite: (short giggle) Yes... I will do so... as long as you wish. It's my only job and career, of course. It has been such a long and beautifully cold winter. And since winter is about to come to an end... the moment I have awakened from my sealed fate... from quite an extremely long... long time... has finally arrived... and brought me joy to my magical heart and soul. Springtime is only about to be the beginning. You have meant so much of everything to me... and now it is my time to grant your wish. I care not what happens to my home... But I can always solve any problem. So I shall be happy for you to support me. So... if you would move aside... please. You shall witness me... and my magic... as I leave the lagoon... and bring the beautiful life of spring... to my forest, so you can live happily. [after a brief second, she closes her eyes] Here it goes... I shall leap out of the water from the lagoon... cover the ground with huge floras of fresh layers green grass... melt all the snow away... by bursting all into beautiful growth... and make my season of such beautiful love and springtime... come to life... and make the forest itself... enchanted... for the first time... in forever... once more.

Cquote2
Cquote1
Blossom: How do you know much about your existance?
Spring Sprite: Well, it's quite a story, which I'm about to tell you. I came here alongside four other spirits; My three sisters: Summer, Fall, and Winter, and your father: Autumn over 8000 years ago from the nature spirit realm, before you were around, recently. I was eventually the very first and oldest spirit to arrive on Earth.
Blossom: Wow. Even sprits, angels and ghosts are capable of appearing from heaven and the spirit realm.
Spring Sprite: It's true, but me, my sisters, and my boyfriend were asleep all this time for that long. The only creature who found my hiding place in a dead hallowed tree on the other side of a massive lake-lagoon, was a mammal: an Elk. He's the most precious being in existance to me. He's the first living thing I saw when I woke up, and he's just so pure and kindhearted. He's become my constant companion ever since, and never fails to make me smile. We've grown so close!
Blossom: He woke you up from your sleep and unleashed you upon the world, because he has his duty to protect you, too?
Spring Sprite: Yes. He cared for me a lot, just like how much I cared for him. All the insects I create cared for me, too like they worship me when I woke up after a long winter.
Blossom: All the insects of the forests in springtime love you too, just like how much you love them, as well?
Spring Sprite: Exactly. I eventually communicate with them by translating their insect language.
Blossom: Wow.
Spring Sprite: However, the grass growth wouldn't follow me up the bare mountain, that day, and suddenly, a monstrous firebird awoke, destorying the forest with fire, and lava.
Blossom: You were scared of death and destruction, because the firebird tried to burn you to ashes to death??
Spring Sprite: Yes. the aftermath, when it tried to kill me, left the entire forest as gray as it is as a deserted land. It was all my fault; All I wanted is life. Luckily, some tears I shedded began to heal the remains, and I knew the Elk has faith in me this whole time. I restored the remains with rainshowers and thunderstorms, recreated all the insects, and finally spreaded fresh layers of grass across the entire outside of the mountain, putting an end to the firebird's tyranny.
Blossom: It was too bad the forest was ruined, but you were lucky you fixed that problem.
—Spring Sprite telling Blossom her story about the events of Fantasia 2000's "The Firebird suite".
