09 A New Portal

CHAPTER 9 A NEW PORTAL The friends quickly found Claw and returned to the tunnel with Talia. They turned right down the closed path to enter the maze. "Be careful," Blaze warned. "The maze is magical. The walls move, so we must stick together." Talia lit up her feathers, and Blaze did the same. "I'm ready," Talia said.

朋友们很快找到了克劳，并带着塔利亚回到了隧道。 他们沿着封闭的小路右转进入迷宫。 “小心，”布雷兹警告道。 “迷宫很神奇。墙在移动，所以我们必须团结在一起。” 塔利亚点亮了羽毛，布雷兹也照做了。 “我准备好了，”塔利亚说。

But as they walked along the twisty, winding paths, the walls stayed still. As they neared the cavern, they saw that the blue light was shining stronger than ever. "I don't think we need our light anymore," Blaze said. Her feathers went dull. They entered the cavern. Talia gasped as she saw the egg. "It's more wonderful than I ever imagined," she said. "Now see if you can open a portal, Blaze," Skyla said. Blaze looked at her friends and paused. "You can do it," Tag told her. "I know you can. You're stronger than ever." He looked to her new magical silver tail feather.

但当他们沿着弯弯曲曲的小路行走时，墙壁却静止不动。 当他们接近洞穴时，他们看到蓝光比以往任何时候都强。 “我认为我们不再需要光了，”布雷兹说。 她的羽毛变钝了。他们进入了洞穴。 塔利亚看到蛋时倒吸了一口气。 “这比我想象的还要美妙，”她说。 “现在看看你能不能打开传送门，火焰。”斯凯拉说。 布雷兹看着她的朋友们，停了下来。 “你能做到的，”泰格告诉她。 “我知道你可以。你比以前更坚强了。” 他看了看她新的银色魔法尾羽。

Blaze smiled and held out her wing. Very slowly, she picked up the Ember Stone and then touched the egg. A burst of blue light surrounded Blaze. It turned her feathers sparkly blue. They looked like ocean waves. The magic rippled through Blaze's feathers. Her eyes went wide. "It's amazing!" she said. "I can feel the magic flowing through me." "Concentrate," Talia told Blaze. "Try to control the magic. See if you can open a portal."

Blaze笑了笑，伸出了翅膀。 她慢慢地捡起烬石，然后摸了摸金蛋。 一道蓝光包围了Blaze。 它把她的羽毛变成了闪闪发光的蓝色。 它们看起来像海浪。 魔法在火焰的羽毛里荡起涟漪。 她睁大了眼睛。“太神奇了！”她说。 “我能感觉到魔法在我身上流淌。” “集中精神，”塔利亚告诉Blaze。 “试着控制魔法。 看看你能不能打开一个传送门。”

Tag watched Blaze. His friend's eyes narrowed as she focused on the egg. "Do you think this will work?" Skyla whispered to Tag. Tag squeezed Skyla's paw. "If anyone can do it, Blaze can," he said. Claw squawked beside them. "It's working! Look!" The wall began shimmering. Tag could see the outline of a door appearing. As the magic began to die down, the door turned solid and golden. This portal was different from the others they had opened. Those portals weren't solid.

泰格看着火焰。他的朋友眯起眼睛盯着那只蛋。 “你觉得这能行吗？”斯凯拉小声对泰格说。 泰格捏了捏斯凯拉的爪子。“如果有人能做到，那就是Blaze，”他说。 爪子在他们旁边吱吱叫着。 “这是工作!看!”墙壁开始闪烁。 泰格看见一扇门的轮廓出现了。 随着魔法逐渐消失，门变成了坚实的金色。 这扇门与他们打开的其他门不同。 那些传送门不是坚固的。

Then Blaze's feathers turned back to their normal color, and the egg's blue light dimmed. "You did it, Blaze!" Talia said. She hugged her daughter. "You have opened a permanent portal to Perodia." Skyla whooped and joined in the hug. "Come on!" she said to Tag. Tag joined in too, then grabbed Claw's wing and pulled him into the giant hug. Tag grinned at Claw, and the vulture smiled back. "We can go home," Claw said. "And we can all visit Blaze and Talia whenever we want," Skyla added.

然后布雷兹的羽毛又变回了原来的颜色，蛋的蓝光也变暗了。 “你做到了，Blaze!”塔里亚说。 她拥抱了女儿。“你打开了通往珀罗迪亚的永久之门” 斯凯拉尖叫着加入了拥抱。 “来吧！”她对泰格说。 泰格也加入了进来，然后抓住爪子的翅膀，把他拉进了一个巨大的拥抱中。 泰格朝爪子咧嘴一笑，秃鹫也对他微笑。 “我们可以回家了。”克劳说。 “我们随时都可以去看Blaze和Talia，”Skyla补充道。

"Maybe I will come to Valor Wood sometime," Talia said. "It's been a long time since I've seen my old friend Grey." "I'm going to come with you to Perodia," Blaze told them. "I'd like to see Grey and the Owls of Valor." Blaze gave Talia a hug. "I'll be back soon," she said. She turned to her friends. "Ready?" "Let's go home," Tag said. He waved goodbye to Talia, then held his breath. The friends held on to each other's wings and paws and stepped through the portal.

“也许有一天我会去英勇森林。”塔利亚说。 “我很久没见到老朋友格雷了。” “我要和你们一起去佩罗迪亚，”布雷兹告诉他们。 “我想看看格蕾和英勇猫头鹰。” Blaze给了塔利亚一个拥抱。“我很快就回来，”她说。 她转向她的朋友们。 “准备好了吗?”“我们回家吧，”泰格说。 他向塔利亚挥手告别，然后屏住了呼吸。 朋友们抓住彼此的翅膀和爪子，跨进了大门。
