3. The Seventh Fairy

Mr. Goodfellow was still helping the other riders off the horses. Quickly, Rachel and Kirsty squeezed past the other horses to look more closely at the pillar. "Heather must be trapped in the painting!" Rachel said. "We have to get her out!" Kirsty said. "Yes," Rachel agreed. "But what can we do with all these people around?" Just then, almost as if he had heard them, Mr. Goodfellow clapped his

古德费罗先生还在帮助其他骑手下马。 雷切尔和科斯蒂迅速挤过其他马匹，更仔细地看了看柱子。 “希瑟一定被困在画里了！”瑞秋说。 “我们得把她救出来！”基说。 “是的，”瑞秋同意了。“但周围这么多人，我们能做什么呢？”就在这时，古德费罗先生拍了拍手，仿佛听到了他们的声音

hands. "Follow me, everyone. The clowns are here!" A cheer went up as everyone ran across the lawn toward the clowns. Rachel and Kirsty were left alone. "Now's our chance!" Kirsty said. Rachel had an idea. "I know! Let's use our magic bags," she said. Titania, the Fairy Queen, had given Kirsty and Rachel bags of special gifts to help them rescue the Rainbow Fairies. "Of course! I have mine here." Kirsty put her hand in her pocket and took out her magic bag. It was glowing with a soft, golden light. When she opened it, a cloud of glitter fizzed up into the air. Kirsty slipped her hand into the bag. She felt something inside, long and skinny like a pencil. It was a tiny golden paintbrush.

的手。“大家跟我来。 小丑来了！”当每个人都穿过草坪向小丑跑去时，响起了欢呼声。 只剩下瑞秋和科斯蒂。 “我们的机会来了！”基说。 瑞秋有个主意。“我知道!让我们用我们的魔法袋吧，”她说。 仙女女王泰坦尼亚给了科斯蒂和瑞秋一袋特别的礼物，帮助他们拯救彩虹仙女。 “当然!我的就在这里。” 科斯蒂把手伸进口袋，拿出了她的魔法包。 它发出柔和的金色光芒。 当她打开它时，一团闪闪发光的云嘶嘶作响地升到空中。 科斯蒂把手伸进包里。 她感到里面有什么东西，又长又细，像一支铅笔。 那是一支小小的金色画笔。

Kirsty was confused. "What good is that? We don't want to paint any more pictures." "Maybe Heather knows what we can use it for," Rachel suggested. "Amber told us how to help her when she was trapped in the shell, remember?" "Good idea," Kirsty said. As she bent closer to the pillar, the tip of the brush touched the painted fairy's hand. Suddenly, the whole picture glowed, and the fairy's tiny fingers moved!

柯斯蒂很困惑。“那有什么用？” 我们不想再画了。” “也许希瑟知道我们可以用它做什么，”瑞秋建议道。 “安布尔告诉我们，当她被困在贝壳里时，该如何帮助她，记得吗？”“好主意，”科斯蒂说。 当她弯下腰靠近柱子时，画笔的尖端碰到了彩绘仙女的手。 突然，整个画面都亮了起来，仙女的小手指动了起来！

A single violet-scented petal floated down from the picture. "Look!" Rachel gasped. "The brush is working some magic on the painting!" Kirsty whispered. She began to stroke the brush all around the outline of the fairy. At first, nothing seemed to happen. Then, the picture glowed even brighter. The fairy shivered. "That tickles!" she said with a tiny laugh. The magic brush was lifting Heather out of the painting! Rachel checked to make sure that no one was watching them. Then, with Kirsty's last stroke, the fairy sprang out of the painting, her wings flashing like jewels. Purple fairy dust shot everywhere, turning into violet-scented flowers that floated around her.

一朵紫罗兰香味的花瓣从画上飘落下来。 “看!”瑞秋深吸一口气。“画笔在这幅画上起了神奇的作用！”斯蒂低声说。 她开始用画笔在仙女的轮廓周围画。 起初，似乎什么也没发生。 然后，画面更加明亮了。 仙女颤抖着。“好痒啊！”她轻声笑着说。 神笔把希瑟从画里提了出来！瑞秋检查了一下，确保没有人在监视他们。 然后，随着柯斯蒂的最后一笔，仙女从画中跳了出来，她的翅膀像珠宝一样闪闪发光。 紫色的仙尘四处飞扬，变成了紫罗兰香味的花朵，在她周围漂浮。

"Thank you so much for rescuing me!" said Heather, floating in front of them. She held a purple wand, tipped with silver. "I'm Heather the Violet Fairy! Who are you? Do you know where my Rainbow sisters are?" "I'm Rachel, and this is Kirsty," said Rachel. "Your sisters are all safe in the pot at the end of the rainbow." "Hooray!" Heather did a twirl of excitement, scattering violet sparks around the girls. "I can't wait to see them again."

“非常感谢你救了我！”希瑟漂浮在他们面前说。 她手里拿着一根紫色的镀银魔杖。 “我是紫罗兰精灵希瑟！”你是谁？ 你知道我的彩虹姐妹们在哪里吗？”“我是雷切尔，这是科斯蒂，”雷切尔说。 “你的姐妹们在彩虹尽头的罐子里都很安全。” “万岁!”希瑟兴奋地旋转了一下，把紫罗兰色的火花撒在女孩们周围。 “我迫不及待地想再见到他们。”

Kirsty held out her hand and Heather landed gently on it. Kirsty hid her from view until the girls had run through the garden, past all the people watching the clowns. They ran out of the gate and down the path that led to the woods.

科斯蒂伸出手，希瑟轻轻地落在她的手上。 科斯蒂把她藏起来，直到女孩们跑过花园，经过所有观看小丑的人。 他们跑出大门，沿着通往树林的小路跑去。
