Chapter 10

CHAPTER TEN Scarlett clung to Blaze's mane as they plummeted downwards. A heap of soft snow cushioned their fall. Scarlett jumped to her feet, shaking the snow crystals from her blonde hair. Blaze leapt up too and they both looked around. They were at the foot of the steep glacier. Scarlett's heart sank. The diamonds were at the top of the glacier at the crown. They were going to have to climb! There was a whizzing sound, reminding Scarlett of the whine of a fly, and something

第十章他们往下坠落时，思嘉紧紧抓住布雷兹的鬃毛。 一堆软雪缓冲了他们的跌落。 思嘉跳了起来，抖了抖金发上的雪晶。 火焰也跳了起来，他们俩都环顾四周。 他们在陡峭的冰川脚下。 思嘉的心一沉。钻石在冰川顶部的王冠上。 他们得爬上去了！有一种嗖嗖的声音，使思嘉想起了苍蝇的哀鸣之类的东西

plopped into the snow at her feet. Instinctively, she snatched it up but before she could look to see what it was, Dancer came thudding down through the air, skidding into Blaze and sending her flying. "Sorry!" Layla's eyes were huge as she hung on tight to Dancer until he finally stopped rocketing around. "What's that you've got, Scarlett?" "I don't know." Scarlett held out her palm, revealing a toy building, like a tiny model. It looked familiar but it took several seconds to work out why. "It's Unicorn Academy," she said in surprise. "Is it yours, Layla? It's definitely not mine."

扑通一声落在她脚边的雪地里。 她本能地把它抓了起来，但她还没来得及看那是什么，小舞就从空中扑通一声落了下来，滑到火焰身上，把她轰飞了。 “对不起!”蕾拉的眼睛睁得大大的，她紧紧地抱着丹瑟，直到他终于停止了飞来飞去。 “你拿的是什么，思嘉？"“我不知道。” 思嘉伸出手掌，露出一个玩具建筑，像个小模型。 它看起来很眼熟，但我花了几秒钟才弄明白为什么。 “这是独角兽学院。”她惊讶地说。 “是你的吗，蕾拉？”这绝对不是我的。”

Layla shook her head. "It's not mine either. Where did you find it?" "It found me!" Scarlett studied the toy closely. She was impressed with how life-like it was. But why had it just appeared? "What's that noise?" Layla said suddenly. Scarlett could hear it, too; a fearful growl that made the hairs on the back of her neck stand up. It sounded like… "A sabre-toothed polar bear!" she cried as she turned and saw a giant bear behind them. She shoved the little model of the school into her pocket. The white monster bear was ten

蕾拉摇了摇头。“也不是我的。 你在哪儿找到的？”“它找到我了！”思嘉仔细研究着那玩具。 它是如此逼真，给她留下了深刻印象。 但它为什么刚刚出现呢？ “那是什么声音？”莱拉突然说。 思嘉也听得见；一声可怕的咆哮使她脖子后面的汗毛都竖起来了。 “一只长着剑齿虎的北极熊！”她转过身来，看到身后有一只大熊。 她把学校的小模型塞进口袋里。 白熊怪兽十岁了

times bigger than Blaze. Its tiny eyes burned with fury as it reared up, standing on its hind legs. Its long claws were sharper than knives. Opening its cave-like mouth, it roared, showing yellowing razor-sharp teeth. Layla screamed. "Gallop!" cried Scarlett, vaulting on to Blaze's back. Her legs were like jelly as Blaze took off. All she could think of was being impaled on the polar bear's teeth or slashed by its deadly claws. Blaze stormed up the side of the glacier with Dancer right beside her. Scarlett's heartbeat matched the thud of Blaze's hooves as she galloped away. The ground behind them shook as the polar bear gave chase. "Faster!" urged Scarlett. Her hands gripped Blaze's mane as she leaned forward, willing her on. The polar bear was close behind them. Every time it roared it gave off a blast of hot breath

比火焰大一倍。当它用后腿站立起来时，它的小眼睛里充满了愤怒。 它的长爪子比刀子还锋利。 它张开洞穴般的嘴巴，咆哮着，露出了黄色的锋利的牙齿。 蕾拉尖叫。“快跑！"思嘉叫着，跳上布雷兹的背。 火焰起飞时，她的腿像果冻一样。 她所能想到的就是被北极熊的牙齿刺穿，或者被它致命的爪子割伤。 布雷丝冲到冰川的一侧，丹瑟就在她旁边。 思嘉的心跳随着布雷兹的蹄声飞奔而去。 北极熊追赶时，他们身后的地面震动了。 “快点！"思嘉催促道。她向前倾身，双手紧紧抓住布雷兹的鬃毛，想让它上。 北极熊紧跟在他们后面。 每当它咆哮时，就会喷出一股热气

that stank like rotting fish. Blaze and Dancer galloped bravely, but their hooves were slipping and sliding as they climbed up the glacier. The sabre-toothed bear was gaining on them. There was no way they could outrun it and there was nowhere to hide. Scarlett glanced across at Layla. Pale with terror and looking like she was about to faint, she was clinging to Dancer's neck.

像腐烂的鱼一样臭。 烈焰和舞蹈家勇敢地疾驰，但当他们爬上冰川时，他们的蹄子却在打滑。 那只剑齿熊正在向他们逼近。 他们逃不掉，也无处可藏。 思嘉瞥了一眼莱拉。 她吓得脸色苍白，似乎要晕过去了，紧紧抓住丹瑟的脖子。

"I need something to fight with!" Scarlett

“我需要一些东西来战斗！”思嘉
