13 The Healing Pool

CHAPTER 13 THE HEALING POOL Tag didn't trust Claw, but Skyla was getting sicker and sicker by the minute. He didn't have a choice. "Okay, let's go," Tag said. Skyla opened her eyes and groaned. Blaze held her paw. "Try to rest," she told her. "We're going to make you better." Tag helped Skyla onto Blaze's back. "Hold on," Tag told her.

泰格不相信克劳，但斯凯拉的病情一分一秒地加重。 他没有选择。“好吧，我们走吧，”泰格说。 斯凯拉睁开眼睛呻吟着。 Blaze握住了她的爪子。“尽量休息，”她告诉她。 “我们会让你变得更好。” 泰格把斯凯拉扶到火焰背上。 “等一下，”泰格告诉她。

They took off, following Claw over the forest. The trees below shimmered, reminding Tag of the nixies' sparkly magic. "Down there!" Claw called. Tag soared to the ground. Blaze landed next to him, carefully holding Skyla. They were in another small clearing surrounded by tall, shiny grass. "This grass isn't poisonous, is it?" Tag asked, being careful not to touch it. "No," Claw said. "Hurry! Bring Skyla this way." Claw moved the tall grass aside to reveal a hidden pool. It was surrounded by rocks that sparkled like diamonds.

他们离开了，跟着克劳穿过森林。 下面的树闪闪发光，让塔格想起了小精灵的闪光魔法。 “那里!”爪。 泰格飞向地面。火焰降落在他身边，小心翼翼地抱着斯凯拉。 他们来到了另一片空地上，周围是又高又亮的草地。 “这种草不会有毒吧？”泰格问道，小心翼翼地不去碰它。 “没有。”克劳说。“快点!把斯凯拉带过来。” 爪子把高高的草移到一边，露出了一个隐藏的水池。 周围环绕着像钻石一样闪闪发光的岩石。

"What is that?" Blaze asked, staring at the pool. Tag put the tip of his wing into the pool. His wing glowed with a bright light. The water in the pool didn't feel like water. It felt like soft, warm feathers. It felt like home. "Put Skyla into the pool," Claw ordered. "Are you sure this will help her?" Tag asked. The pool didn't seem dangerous, but every time he looked at Claw he saw Thorn's evil eyes looking back at him.

“那是什么？”布雷兹盯着泳池问。 泰格把他的翅膀尖放进水池里。 他的翅膀闪烁着明亮的光芒。 池里的水感觉不像水。 摸起来就像柔软温暖的羽毛。 这里有家的感觉。“把斯凯拉放进水池里。”克劳命令道。 “你确定这对她有帮助吗？”标签要求。 池塘似乎并不危险，但每次他看着克劳，就会看到索恩那双邪恶的眼睛回望着他。

Skyla groaned. "We have to try," Blaze said. Together, Tag and Blaze gently put Skyla into the pool. "She's not going to like this," said Blaze. "Skyla hates water." "I don't think this pool is filled with water," Tag said. "You're right," Claw said. "This is a magic pool, full of healing magic."

Skyla呻吟着。“我们必须尝试，”布雷兹说。 泰格和布雷兹一起轻轻地把斯凯拉放进水池里。 “她不会喜欢这样的，”Blaze说。 “斯凯拉讨厌水。”“我不认为这个池子里装满了水，”泰格说。 “你说得对。”克劳说。 “这是一个魔法池，充满了治愈魔法。”

The three of them watched Skyla float in the pool. Skyla lay very still. They waited. Then suddenly— Her fur rippled. Slowly, Skyla's soft gray fur turned red, then green, then orange, then purple. She looked like a giant blueberry! Clouds of glitter shot out of Skyla's mouth as she coughed. "She's getting worse, not better!" Tag shouted at Claw. "You tricked us!"

他们三个看着斯凯拉漂浮在游泳池里。 斯凯拉静静地躺着。他们等待着。 突然，她的皮毛起了涟漪。 慢慢地，斯凯拉柔软的灰色皮毛变成了红色，然后是绿色，然后是橙色，然后是紫色。 她看起来像一个巨大的蓝莓！斯凯拉咳嗽的时候，一团闪光从她嘴里喷了出来。 “她每况愈下，没有好转！”泰格对克劳喊道。 “你骗了我们！”
