"The Bubble Race" is the first story of the first episode of Butterfly Valley: Friends on Adventures.
==Synopsis==
Terry wants to compete at the annual Butterfly Valley Professional Bubble Race, but someone came and thinks that he was too young for the race. It's up to his friends to help him win the race, or he will hit rock bottom…
==Plot==
The 50th annual Butterfly Valley Professional Bubble Race is taking place in Lake Sparkle and Terry is excited about racing with the pros, then his friend Chantelle, who is checking on her trusty magic notepad, came and asked Terry what is he looking at, then he replied that it's a poster of the upcoming bubble race in Lake Sparkle.
Terry told her that he longed about winning the professional bubble race, then he imagines himself racing across the lake inside a big bubble, crossing the finish line first and holding up his trophy afterwards.
Jen soon came into the scene and smacked Terry's shoulder, telling him not to mess around, but she also notice the poster. Wondering whatever it promotes, she leaves the scene.
A huge heavy-weight racer named Lightning, who is the defending champion of the Butterfly Valley Bubble Race last year, came and told Terry that he's too little to enter the bubble race, which makes him upset as he and Lightning argue about who's the better racer. Chantelle calms then down and claims that Terry can and will always be the best bubble racer in Butterfly Valley.
Lightning reluctantly agreed with her and left the scene in disappointment. Terry thanks Chantelle for showing her support for him and they went to the race track for practicing Terry's bubble racing skill.
Terry gets into his big bubble and tries to maneuver around the race track, but the bubble keeps popping, causing him to fall on his back, while Chantelle checks on terry's attempts on her magic notepad. The sky turns dark and the two leave the race track.
The next day, the butterfly fairies gather up at the Butterfly Valley Bubble Race in Lake Sparkle as the racers, including Terry, get into their huge bubbles. A butterfly fairy official starts the race by using his spell to ring the bell. the racers began to overlap each other as they block off Terry's way.
Terry's friends cheer for him loudly as he tries to go head-to-head with Lightning, but he pushes him off track, causing him to fly out of the venue, almost popping his bubble. Terry heads back to the race track and speeds towards Lightning.
Lightning, not giving up, tries to go against Terry, but he finds out that he will crash into a tree and he did, popping his bubble in the process. The butterfly fairies, including the racers and the officials, witness this, as Terry stops and helps him out. Both Terry and Lightning then team up to cross the finish line together, to the surprise of the butterfly fairies.
At the awarding ceremony, Terry and Lightning climb up the podium and another butterfly fairy official gives the trophy to them, but Terry rejects the offer, claiming that he only wanted to race just to beat his best time. Everybody are shocked about this, since they thought Terry wanted to be in first place.
Chantelle checks on her magic notepad and writes down Terry's best time this year. Bobby notices this to be Terry's best time since the last junior bubble race he participated and tells Terry about this. Terry was shocked about his latest record and thanked his friends for their support.
The butterfly fairies congratulate Lightning, who lifts the trophy over his head, for defending his title this year as the story ends.
