11 Time for a Spell

11 Time for a Spell Violet pecked around the wall of the pet store. Her mom and Aunt Anne were almost inside the hardware store next door. "Let's hurry," Violet said. She grabbed Leon. "Can I have fish food now?" Leon asked. Sprite sprinkled pixie dust over them. "To the lizard tank!"

维奥莱特在宠物店的墙上啄来啄去。 她妈妈和安妮阿姨都快进到隔壁的五金店了。 “我们快点，”维奥莱特说。 她抓住利昂。“我现在可以吃鱼食了吗？”利昂问道。 雪碧把仙尘撒在他们身上。 “敬蜥蜴坦克！”

In a flash, they were back inside Miller's Pet Shop. They huddled behind the lizard tank. Aquamarina was swimming peacefully in the fish tank with Brittany and the other fish. "Cast your time spell now," Violet told Sprite. "I'm on it!" Sprite said. Violet turned to Leon. "Leon, count out sixty seconds so we'll know when time's up." "I'm thirsty," Leon said. "Just start counting, please," Violet said. Sprite closed his eyes. He sprinkled more pixie dust over them.

转眼间，他们又回到了米勒宠物店。 他们挤在蜥蜴箱后面。 Aquamarina和Brittany还有其他的鱼在鱼缸里平静地游着。 “现在施你的时间咒语。”维奥莱特对雪碧说。 “我这就去！”精灵说。维奥莱特转向李昂。 “里昂，数60秒，这样我们就知道时间到了。” “我渴了，”利昂说。“请开始数吧，”维奥莱特说。 雪碧闭上了眼睛。他在他们身上撒了更多的仙尘。

Violet didn't feel much different. But there was a little buzzing sound in her head. "My time spell is working," Sprite said. "Now hurry!" "Okay," said Violet. "One fish food, two fish food, three fish food..." Leon counted. Violet ran up to the counter. "Mr. Miller, may I please borrow a wrench?" Violet asked. The dazed store owner reached under the counter. He handed the tool to Violet. "Have a nice day," he said.

维奥莱特也没觉得有什么不同。 但是她的脑子里有一个小小的嗡嗡声。 “我的时间咒语起作用了，”雪碧说。 “现在快!”“好吧，”维奥莱特说。 “一份鱼食，两份鱼食，三份鱼食……” 利昂。维奥莱特跑到柜台前。 “米勒先生，我可以借用一把扳手吗？”紫问道。 茫然的店主伸手到柜台下面。 他把工具递给维奥莱特。 “祝你今天愉快，”他说。

"Thank you," Violet replied. She rushed behind the counter to the sink with the leaky faucet. "Ten fish food, eleven fish food..." Leon counted. Violet began to fix the leaky faucet. She wasn't sure how to do it exactly. But for her plan to work, all she had to do was try. Aquamarina saw Violet at the sink. She stopped swimming. Violet pretended to ignore her and kept turning the wrench. She watched Aquamarina from the corner of her eye.

“谢谢你，”维奥莱特回答。 她冲到柜台后面水龙头漏水的水池边。 “十份鱼食，十一份鱼食……” 利昂。维奥莱特开始修理漏水的水龙头。 她不知道该怎么做。 但为了让她的计划奏效，她所要做的就是尝试。 水族公主在水池边看到了维奥莱特。 她停止了游泳。维奥莱特假装没理她，继续转动扳手。 她用眼角的余光看着水族公主。

Aquamarina swam up to the top of the water. She stuck out her head. "What are you doing?" "I'm fixing the faucet," Violet said. "It's leaking." "I know it's leaking!" said the water sprite. "I did that myself. I love the drip, drip, drip it makes." Violet tried not to smile. This was just what she had planned. Aquamarina would try to stop her. And in order to do that, she'd have to come on dry land. "Twenty-eight fish food, twenty-nine fish food..." Leon counted. "Well, I don't like the drip, drip, drip," Violet said. "I'm going to make it stop."

阿卡玛琳娜游到了水面上。 她伸出头来。“你在干什么？”“我在修水龙头，”维奥莱特说。 “这是泄漏。”“我知道它在漏水！”水精灵说。 “这是我自己做的。我喜欢它滴、滴、滴的声音。” 维奥莱特强忍着不笑。 这正是她所计划的。 水族公主会试图阻止她。 为了做到这一点，她必须来到陆地上。 “二十八份鱼食，二十九份鱼食……” 利昂。“嗯，我不喜欢滴水，滴水，滴水，”维奥莱特说。 “我要让它停止。”

"Don't you dare!" Aquamarina cried. She climbed onto the edge of the fish tank. Her eyes began to glow. She aimed two beams of blue-green light at Violet. Violet dropped the wrench and closed her eyes. Uh-oh, she thought. If Sprite's time spell doesn't work, I'll be turned into a fish!

“你敢！”Aquamarina哭了。 她爬上了鱼缸的边缘。 她的眼睛开始发光。她把两束蓝绿色的光对准维奥莱特。 维奥莱特放下扳手，闭上了眼睛。 哦哦，她想。如果雪碧的时间咒语不起作用，我就会变成一条鱼！
