Chapter 4

4 Going to jewelry class with Mei and Quinn was the best. But since discovering she was a Dragon Girl, Aisha had to admit that flying with her friends was even better! She loved the way her huge blue, silver, and gold wings cruised the air currents. Using her wings had taken a bit of

和Mei和Quinn一起上珠宝课是最棒的。 但自从发现自己是龙女后，艾莎不得不承认，和朋友们一起飞行甚至更好!她喜欢她那蓝色、银色和金色的巨大翅膀在气流中飞翔的样子。 用她的翅膀有点

getting used to, but now she felt strong and sure when she flew high above the forest. She would never grow tired of feeling the breeze on her face and the drop in her stomach when she swooped low and then surged higher into the sky. Flying was better than any roller coaster in the world! And she loved being up so high that the forest stretched out like a lush carpet down below. But today the forest didn't look like a lush carpet at all. The forest colors were all gone. Everything was covered in thick white snow. There were no birds hopping from branch to branch, no butterflies flitting around bright flowers. The only movement Aisha could see were gray shadows gliding silently across the snow. She frowned. She wasn't crazy about snow, and she definitely didn't like Shadow Sprites!

习惯了，但现在当她飞到森林上空时，她感到强壮和自信。 她永远不会厌倦微风吹在脸上的感觉，也不会厌倦她在低空俯冲时肚子里的起伏。 飞行比世界上任何过山车都好!她喜欢站在这么高的地方，下面的森林像一张茂密的地毯一样伸展开来。 但今天的森林看起来一点也不像一片茂密的地毯。 森林的颜色都消失了。 一切都被厚厚的白雪覆盖着。 没有鸟儿在树枝间跳来跳去，也没有蝴蝶在鲜艳的花朵间飞舞。 艾莎唯一能看到的是灰色的影子在雪地上无声地滑动。 她皱起了眉头。她不喜欢雪，也绝对不喜欢暗影精灵!

So let's get that Magic Mirror back into the vault, as fast as we can! Aisha told herself. She looked across at Mei and Quinn and saw that the determination on her friends' faces matched hers. As they flew over a clearing, Aisha saw a huge pink fluffy… thing. What was it? The object looked like a cloud at sunset, except the sun

所以我们把魔镜拿回金库，越快越好!艾莎对自己说。 她看着对面的梅和奎因，发现朋友们脸上的决心和她的一样。 当他们飞过一片空地时，艾莎看到了一个巨大的粉红色毛茸茸的东西。 是什么?这个物体在日落时看起来像一片云，除了太阳

wasn't setting, and the cloudlike thing was on the ground. Mei and Quinn had spotted the pink thing, too. "Is it a swarm of Shadow Sprites in disguise?" Quinn suggested. Mei looked doubtful. "I don't think so. It's too puffy. It looks more like a giant blob of cotton candy. Should we check it out?" "Okay," said Aisha. "But let's get ready to roar if it turns out to be a pack of Shadow Sprites."

还没有落下，那个像云一样的东西就在地上。 梅和奎恩也发现了那个粉红色的东西。 “是一群乔装打扮的暗影精灵吗?”奎因。 梅满脸疑惑。“我不这么认为。 太浮肿了。它看起来更像一个巨大的棉花糖团。 我们应该去看看吗?”“好吧，”艾莎说。 “不过，如果那是一群暗影精灵，我们就准备好大吼一声吧。”

In a triangle formation, the Treasure Dragons flew lower and lower. As they landed softly on the snow, Aisha saw that the pink cloud thing was actually a herd of pink sheep, all pressed together. Up close, their fleeces looked more like spun sugar than ever. They even smelled sweet! The pink sheep were all pushing and shoving at one another, bleating mournfully. "I've always wanted lovely fleece. But mine is just all wrong!"

宝龙排成三角形，飞得越来越低。 当他们轻轻地降落在雪地上时，艾莎发现那朵粉红色的云实际上是一群粉红色的羊，它们全都挤在一起。 近距离观察，它们的羊毛看起来更像棉花糖。 它们甚至闻起来很甜!粉红色的羊都在互相推搡，哀怨地咩咩叫着。 “我一直想要漂亮的羊毛。 可我的全错了!”

"Mine is far too thick and woolly. I want to shave it all off right now," baaed another sheep. "What about me? I can't believe how pink I am. It clashes horribly with my eyes. I wonder if I should dye my fleece?" "At least you can fix your problems," cried another sheep. "I can't seem to remember anything. Do you know what we're all even doing here?" "What's going on?" whispered Quinn. "I'll see if I can find out," said Aisha. She flew into the air and hovered over the fluffy pink sheep. The sheep were so distracted, they didn't even notice a Dragon Girl hovering above them. It was hard to see exactly, but there seemed to be something in the middle of the field. Whatever it was, the sheep kept jostling to get closer, bleating grumpily at one another. Aisha caught a quick glimpse of the thing—was that a frozen puddle?

“我的太厚太软了。 我现在就想把它剃光。”另一只羊叫道。 “那我呢?”我真不敢相信我的肤色这么粉红。 它和我的眼睛很不协调。 我不知道该不该染羊毛?”“至少你可以解决你的问题，”另一只羊叫道。 “我好像什么都不记得了。 你知道我们在这里干什么吗?”“怎么回事?”奎因小声问。 “我看看能不能找到。”艾莎说。 她飞到空中，在毛茸茸的粉色绵羊上方盘旋。 羊们太分心了，他们甚至没有注意到一个龙女在他们上方盘旋。 虽然看不清楚，但在田野中央似乎有什么东西。 不管它是什么，羊群们不停地挤来挤去，想靠得更近一些，还互相恶气冲冲地咩咩叫着。 艾莎瞥了一眼——那是一个冰冻的水坑吗?
