5. Frost Fright

A tall, bony figure, dressed all in white, suddenly appeared out of thin air. Icicles hung from his eyebrows and beard. "You again!" he snarled at Kirsty and Rachel. "How dare you steal those feathers?" Rachel, Kirsty, and Hayley gasped in fear as Jack Frost towered over them. Kirsty looked at Hayley. "Go!" she whispered. "Take the Rain Feather to Doodle before Jack Frost gets his hands on it." Hayley looked unsure, but she nodded and zoomed away, violet fairy dust streaming out behind her like a comet's tail.

突然从稀薄的空气中出现了一个身披白衣、骨瘦如柴的高个儿。 他的眉毛和胡子上挂着冰柱。 “又是你们！”他对柯斯蒂和雷切尔吼道。 “你怎么敢偷那些羽毛？”杰克·弗罗斯特高高耸立在她们面前，瑞秋、科斯蒂和海莉吓得倒吸了一口气。 科斯蒂看着海莉。“走！”她低声说。 “在杰克·弗罗斯特拿到雨羽之前，把它交给嘟嘟。” 海莉看起来不太确定，但她点点头，迅速飞走了，紫罗兰色的仙尘像彗星的尾巴一样在她身后飞舞。

"As for you, you useless goblin!" Jack Frost was saying. "I'll send you on a vacation you won't forget!" He lifted his wand and blasted freezing white light toward the goblin, who was stomping away across the field. With a fizz and a crackle, the goblin became a skinny ice statue!

“至于你，你这个没用的妖精！”杰克·弗罗斯特说。 “我要送你去一个让你永生难忘的假期！”他举起魔杖，向正在穿过场地大步走开的妖精射出冰冷的白光。 随着嘶嘶声和噼啪声，妖精变成了一个瘦瘦的冰雕！

Jack Frost turned back to face the girls. He shrieked with rage when he saw that Hayley had left. He glared at Kirsty, who was reaching for her locket. "No, you don't!" he snapped. He pointed his wand and a narrow beam of light shot out, freezing both lockets tightly shut. "Oh!" cried Rachel and Kirsty. Without their fairy dust, they would be fairy-sized forever! Jack Frost looked down at the two tiny girls. "What's the matter? Are your tongues frozen?" he asked, laughing noisily. His laughter sounded like feet crunching on snail shells.

杰克·弗罗斯特转过身来面对女孩们。 他看到海莉走了，气得尖叫起来。 他怒视着正伸手去拿挂坠盒的科斯蒂。 “不，你不知道！”他厉声说。 他用魔杖一指，一道狭窄的光射了出来，把两个挂坠盒冻得紧紧的。 “哦！”雷切尔和科斯蒂叫道。 如果没有仙尘，他们将永远是仙尘大小！杰克·弗罗斯特低头看着两个小女孩。 “怎么啦？”你们的舌头冻僵了吗？”他大声笑着问道。 他的笑声听起来就像脚在蜗牛壳上嘎吱作响。

Kirsty trembled with fright, but she looked straight into Jack Frost's cold, gray eyes. "Why can't you live in peace with all the other fairies?" she asked. "Fairyland is a wonderful place! Everyone would be your friend if you stopped causing so much trouble," Rachel added. Jack Frost's mouth tightened with surprise. He seemed speechless. For a moment, Rachel and Kirsty wondered if he would listen to them. Then Kirsty's heart sank as Jack Frost frowned. "How dare you give me advice?" he roared, his eyes as cold as a glacier. "You two have interfered too many times. I think it's time I put a stop to that!" He raised his wand. Rachel grabbed Kirsty's arm and pulled her behind a nearby tree, just as a blast of freezing white light poured out of the wand. There was a loud snapping sound, and thick white ice coated the tree.

科斯蒂吓得浑身发抖，但她直视着杰克·弗罗斯特冰冷的灰色眼睛。 “你为什么不能和其他仙女和平相处？”她问。 “仙境是个奇妙的地方！”如果你不再制造这么多麻烦，每个人都会成为你的朋友，”瑞秋补充道。 杰克·弗罗斯特惊讶得抿紧了嘴。 他似乎说不出话来。有那么一会儿，瑞秋和科斯蒂怀疑他是否会听她们的话。 这时杰克·弗罗斯特皱起眉头，柯斯蒂的心一沉。 “你怎么敢给我出主意？”他吼道，他的眼睛像冰川一样冰冷。 “你们俩干涉太多次了。 我想是时候制止这种情况了！”他举起魔杖。 瑞秋抓住科斯蒂的胳膊，把她拉到附近的一棵树后面，就在这时，一束冰冷的白光从魔杖里喷了出来。 啪的一声巨响，厚厚的白冰覆盖了树。

Kirsty and Rachel shivered. Jack Frost stepped around the tree and raised his wand again. Rachel heard a rushing sound and squeezed her eyes shut, expecting to feel an icy blast at any moment.…

科斯蒂和瑞秋打了个寒颤。 杰克·弗罗斯特绕过树，再次举起魔杖。 雷切尔听到一声冲的声音，紧紧地闭上眼睛，期待着在任何时候都能感受到刺骨的寒风....
