Chapter 2

CHAPTER TWO The Safari Trail was a huge success. Miki, Violet, Ariana and Matilda chattered all the way back, saying what a brilliant time they'd had. Rosa felt very content as they rode back to the stables. The only thing that bugged her was that Freya hadn't come too. How would Diamond dorm ever get to know each other and become friends if Freya kept refusing to join in? It wasn't fair on Honey, Freya's unicorn, either. She'd clearly wanted to come along. Rosa felt very sorry for Honey as they arrived back in the stable block. She was

狩猎之旅取得了巨大的成功。 米基、维奥莱特、阿利安娜和玛蒂尔达一路上叽叽喳喳地说，他们度过了多么美好的时光。 当他们骑马回到马厩时，罗莎感到非常满足。 唯一让她烦恼的是弗雷娅没有一起来。 如果弗雷娅一直拒绝加入，戴蒙德宿舍怎么能认识彼此并成为朋友呢？ 这对弗雷娅的独角兽哈尼也不公平。 她显然是想一起去的。 当他们回到马厩时，罗莎为霍妮感到非常难过。 她是

standing dejectedly in her stable, all on her own. She whinnied to them as they clattered inside. "Did you have a good time? What did you see? I want to know all about it! Oh, I wish Freya and I had come too!" While Rosa brushed the dirt from Crystal's silky coat, Crystal told Honey all about the Trail ride. Honey hung on Crystal's every word. "You should get Freya to join in more," Rosa told her. "I do try," said Honey sadly. "But she won't listen." When Rosa had settled Crystal with a large bucket of sky berries, she went inside. As she entered the academy buildings she noticed that the door to the Great Hall was open. The hall was one of Rosa's favourite rooms and she couldn't resist peeking inside. A ray of sunlight lit a path on the floor, drawing her in further. The hall had a domed roof that was made of coloured glass, and the rays of light shining

她一个人沮丧地站在马厩里。 他们进来时，她低声对他们说。 “你玩得开心吗?” 你看到了什么？我想知道这一切！哦，我真希望弗雷娅和我也能来！”罗莎一边掸掉克丽丝特尔丝般的外套上的灰尘，克丽丝特尔一边给霍妮讲骑行的事。 霍妮听着克里斯托说的每一句话。 “你应该让弗雷娅多参与进来，”罗莎对她说。 “我尽力了，”霍妮伤心地说。 “但是她不听。”当罗莎拿着一大桶天空莓安顿好克丽丝特尔后，她走了进去。 当她走进学院大楼时，她注意到礼堂的门是开着的。 大厅是罗莎最喜欢的房间之一，她忍不住要往里面偷看。 一缕阳光照亮了地板上的一条小路，把她进一步吸引了进来。 大厅有一个用彩色玻璃做成的圆顶屋顶，灯光闪闪发光

through it made rainbow-coloured swirls on the floor. Rosa's eyes fell on the centre of the room, where the magical map stood. It was an exact replica of Unicorn Island in miniature, with tiny green valleys, golden beaches and secret forests. Rosa went closer. "You've heard the news, then?" "Freya!" Rosa hadn't heard the other girl coming up behind her. "What news?" "Didn't you even notice the force field wasn't working?" Freya said. "Didn't you wonder why you could walk all the way up to the map?" Rosa realised that the humming, glimmering force field that normally protected the map wasn't there any more. "I didn't," she admitted, cross with herself. She hated people being able to find fault with her. "So, what's the news?" "The force field isn't working because the magical map is broken. I just heard Ms Nettles telling Ms Willow, the new school nurse, about

通过它在地板上形成彩虹色的漩涡。 罗莎的目光落在房间中央，那张神奇的地图就在那里。 它完全是独角兽岛的微缩复制品，有绿色的小山谷、金色的海滩和神秘的森林。 罗莎走近了。“那么，你听说了这个消息？”弗雷娅!”罗莎没有听到另一个女孩从她身后走过来。 “什么消息?”“你没注意到力场坏了吗？”弗雷娅说。 “你不奇怪为什么你能一直走到地图那里吗？”罗莎意识到，通常用来保护地图的嗡嗡作响、闪闪发光的力场已经不在了。 “我没有，”她承认，对自己很生气。 她讨厌别人对她吹毛求疵。 “那么，有什么消息吗？”“力场不起作用是因为魔法地图坏了。 我刚听到荨麻女士告诉新来的学校护士威洛女士关于

it. Ms Nettles thinks that Ms Primrose may have something to do with it. You've heard of Ms Primrose, right? The head teacher who was here last year." "Everyone's heard of Ms Primrose!" said Rosa. Ms Primrose and an unknown friend had tried to take control of the island by harming Sparkle Lake and Unicorn Academy. "It can't be her, though. She was caught and she's been locked up. My dad says that she's so well guarded that she'll never be able to harm Unicorn Academy or the island ever again." "Yes, but my mum told me that before Ms Primrose was captured she stole the model of Unicorn Academy from the map." Freya pointed to a gap next to Sparkle Lake, where a tiny replica of Unicorn Academy should have been. "And, just now, Ms Nettles told Ms Willow she thinks that's why the map is broken. The map can take you anywhere on the island, but you need the model of the school to get

它。奈特尔斯女士认为樱草花女士可能与此事有关。 你听说过樱草花女士，对吧？ 去年来过这里的班主任。” “每个人都听说过樱草花女士！”罗莎说。 樱草花女士和一位不知名的朋友试图通过破坏火花湖和独角兽学院来控制这座岛。 “不过不可能是她。她被抓了，被关了起来。 我爸爸说她被保护得很好，她再也不能伤害独角兽学院和这个岛了。” “是的，但是我妈妈告诉我，在樱草花女士被捕之前，她从地图上偷走了独角兽学院的模型。” 弗雷娅指了指闪闪湖旁边的一个缺口，那里应该有一个小小的独角兽学院的复制品。 就在刚才，荨麻女士告诉威洛女士，她认为这就是地图坏掉的原因。 地图可以带你到岛上的任何地方，但你需要学校的模型才能得到

back. The map is clever. It wouldn't take you on an adventure unless it was certain that it could get you back safely. Watch this." Freya leaned in and, touching a stretch of beach on the West Coast, she said, "I want to go to the beach." "Freya!" Rosa gasped in alarm. What if the map suddenly whisked Freya away? The teachers would be furious. No one was allowed to use the magical map without Ms Nettles' permission, not unless it was a dire emergency!

回来。这张地图很聪明。它不会带你去冒险，除非它确定它能把你安全带回。 看这个。”弗雷娅靠过去，摸着西海岸的一片海滩说：“我想去海滩。” 弗雷娅!”罗莎惊恐地倒吸了一口冷气。 如果地图突然把弗雷娅带走了呢？ 老师们会大发雷霆的。 没有内特尔斯女士的允许，任何人都不能使用魔法地图，除非是非常紧急的情况！

"See?" said Freya, her hand still touching the sand. "The map really is broken. I wish I could fix it." "If all the staff can't fix it, what makes you think you could?" said Rosa. Freya shrugged. "I'm good at fixing things." "But it's a magical map," Rosa pointed out. "It will need magic to fix it." She heard a ringing. "There goes the dinner bell. We'd better hurry." Freya was still staring intently at the map. Rosa tugged on her sleeve. "Come on, Freya. It makes all of Diamond dorm look bad if one person's late." Freya shook her off. "When have I ever been late? You really are bossy, you know." Rosa stared after Freya as she stalked off. She didn't know what it was about her and Freya, but the two of them always seemed to end up irritating each other. Dinner was eaten in the dining room.

“看到了吗？”弗雷娅说，她的手还在摸着沙子。 “地图真的坏了。 我希望我能修好它。”“如果所有的员工都不能修好它，你凭什么认为你能？”罗莎说。 弗雷娅耸耸肩。“我擅长修理东西。” “但这是一张神奇的地图，”罗莎指出。 “需要魔法来修复它。” 她听到铃声。“晚饭铃响了。 我们最好快点。”弗雷娅仍然目不转睛地盯着地图。 罗莎拉了拉她的袖子。 “来吧，弗雷娅。如果有一个人迟到，整个戴蒙德宿舍都会显得很糟糕。” 弗雷娅甩掉了她。“我什么时候迟到过？” 你知道吗，你真是太专横了。” 罗莎盯着弗雷娅大步走开。 她不知道她和弗雷娅是怎么回事，但她们两个似乎总是以激怒对方而告终。 晚餐是在餐厅里吃的。
