Brooke the Photographer Fairy Read online

  A few seconds later, the three fairies zipped out of the stairwell and into the mall. They flew as close to the ceiling as they could, so the crowd of shoppers wouldn’t see them. The mall was busier than ever.

  “I hope we’re going to be able to spot Jack Frost and the goblins among all these people,” said Kirsty.

  “Look down there,” said Rachel, pointing down to the Winter Woolies booth.

  One of the displays had been knocked over, and shoppers were getting tangled up in the long woolen scarves on the floor. Shoppers were stumbling around, bumping into one another.

  “If we look for trouble, I bet Jack Frost won’t be far away,” Rachel continued.

  “Look!” said Kirsty suddenly. “Someone dressed in bright blue just ran into Tippington Toys. Let’s go and see if it was Jack Frost!”

  They all zoomed down to the toy store and swooped over a group of kids. At the far end of the store, another group of kids was standing around a rocking horse. They had all put on funny hats and clothes from the dress-up section, but something about the way they were standing made Brooke want to look closer.

  “They don’t look like ordinary kids,” said the little fairy.

  As they neared the group, they saw long green noses sticking out from under the hats, and bony green fingers reaching out to stroke the rocking horse’s mane.

  “They’re goblins!” cried Rachel.

  It didn’t take long for the girls to realize that it was Jack Frost on the rocking horse.

  “Take those horrible clothes off,” he snapped at the goblins. “They’re not made by Ice Blue, and that means they’re GARBAGE.”

  Grumbling, the goblins pulled off their dress-up clothes. Then one of them grabbed a scooter from a nearby display. The other three did the same, and they all started to scoot around the store at top speed.

  Brooke, Rachel, and Kirsty perched on a red kite that was hanging from the ceiling and looked down at the chaos the goblins were causing below. They rolled their scooters over the feet of other shoppers, knocked over displays, and made a terrible racket.

  “Look at Jack Frost!” shouted Kirsty over all the noise.

  He was sitting in front of a toy makeup table, playing with his hair and taking photographs of himself with Brooke’s magic camera.

  “He’s keeping a tight grip on my camera,” said Brooke with a sigh. “How are we going to get it back?”

  Rachel spotted a playhouse in the corner of the store and gasped.

  “I think I have an idea,” she said. “Hold on to the kite and flap your wings as hard as you can!”

  Kirsty and Brooke started to flap their wings, and they felt the kite start to move beneath them, tugging on the string that tied it to the ceiling.

  “We need to make it fly toward Jack Frost,” said Rachel in a breathless voice. “Flap harder!”

  “I can’t,” groaned Kirsty.

  “Maybe my magic can help,” said Brooke. She tapped her wand on the kite and it started to move.

  “Steer it toward Jack Frost!” Rachel cried. “Try to chase him into the playhouse.”

  The kite picked up speed as the friends steered it toward Jack Frost.

  “What?” Jack Frost exclaimed as he saw the kite coming straight toward him. He ran away and ducked into the playhouse, with Brooke and the girls right behind. He was trapped!

  The three fairies hovered in the doorway.

  “You’re cornered,” said Kirsty. “Just give the camera back and we’ll let you go.”

  “No way,” said Jack Frost, hiding it behind him. “This takes great photos of me, and I’m keeping it. Goblins, get over here now!”

  The girls heard the sound of four scooters being dropped on the floor, followed by four pairs of feet thumping toward the playhouse. The goblins peeked through the window, and then Jack Frost flicked his wand. There was a loud crack and a flash of blue magic.

  “To my Ice Castle!” shouted Jack Frost. A second later, he and his goblins had disappeared.

  “We have to follow them, or I’ll never get my camera back,” said Brooke. “Girls, will you come to the Ice Castle with me?”

  “Of course!” said Rachel. Kirsty nodded in agreement.

  Brooke waved her wand and said a quick spell:

  “To Jack Frost’s home of ice and snow,

  In an instant we must go.

  Let us follow where they flew,

  But keep us safely out of view! ”

  There was a bright golden flash, and then the girls found themselves sitting on a frosty tree branch in the garden of Jack Frost’s castle.

  “Look down there,” said Kirsty quietly.

  She pointed to a clearing among snow-covered trees. Jack Frost and the four goblins were standing around a large pond that had a waterfall pouring into it from a high rocky cliff.

  “This is a much better setting for my photo shoot,” Jack Frost was saying. “All it needs is a little extra frostiness!”

  He raised his wand and zap! The pond froze over. Zap! Ice sculptures appeared around the pond, wearing Ice Blue designs. Zap! The waterfall froze to create a giant sheet of ice, like a mirror.

  “What a wonderful sight,” said Jack Frost, gazing at his reflection.

  He took a few photos of himself with the magic camera, which he didn’t seem willing to return to the goblin photographer. Then he looked around.

  “These trees aren’t icy enough,” he grumbled.

  Zap! Zap! Zap! Tree after tree was suddenly weighed down with thick, sharp icicles.

  “He’s turning this way!” cried Brooke. “Duck!”

  The three fairies zoomed out of the way as the tree they were sitting in was decorated with icicles. When he saw them, Jack Frost gave a yell of fury.

  “What are you pesky fairies doing here?” he bellowed. “You’re trying to ruin my photo shoot! I’ll make you sorry you ever THOUGHT of coming here!”

  The fairies flew left and right, trying to dart out of the way as Jack Frost tried to zap them with his wand. The sculptures cracked and exploded as the ice bolts struck them. Icicles plunged to the ground. The goblins had to dive out of the way to avoid being hit!

  “Kirsty! Brooke!” Rachel shouted over the yelps and squeals of the goblins. “Meet me at the waterfall!”

  The three fairies zoomed toward the frozen waterfall and zipped behind it, hidden from Jack Frost for a moment.

  “Do you have a plan?” Kirsty panted.

  Rachel nodded and hurriedly started to whisper to the others.

  “Come out from behind my waterfall!” Jack Frost screeched. “I’ll turn you all into ice sculptures!”

  Rachel peeked around the side of the waterfall.

  “He’s pretty close,” she whispered. “Now!”

  Brooke waved her wand, and the frozen waterfall melted. Brooke’s magic sent a shower of icy water gushing down on top of Jack Frost!

  “YOWWEEEEEE!” he screamed.

  In shock, he dropped the camera, and Kirsty swooped down, catching it just before it hit the ground. Rachel followed her, and together they managed to lift the camera up to where Brooke was hovering. As soon as Brooke touched it, the camera shrank back to its normal fairy size.

  Dripping wet and furious, Jack Frost shook his fist at the three fairies, who were fluttering just out of his reach.

  “You haven’t won!” he raged. “I still have one of your precious magical objects, and as long as I have that, I can ruin things in the fashion world!”

  “We’re not going to let you do that!” said Rachel.

  Before Jack Frost could think of a reply, Brooke waved her wand and a stream of fairy dust swirled around the three fairies. When it disappeared, they found themselves in the roof garden of the shopping mall once again.
r />   The rain had stopped and the sun was coming out from behind the clouds. Kirsty and Rachel followed Brooke behind some tall, leafy plants, where they were out of sight.

  “I’d better change you back to normal,” said Brooke. “Now that the sun has come out, your photo shoot can go ahead. Besides, I have to return to Fairyland and tell the other Fashion Fairies about our adventure!”

  She waved her wand and turned Rachel and Kirsty back to their usual size. Their Ice Blue suits had disappeared, and they were wearing their own colorful designs again.

  “Good-bye,” said Brooke, fluttering in front of them. “And thank you both — I’m so happy to have my magic camera back at last.”

  “We loved helping you,” Kirsty replied. “Good-bye, Brooke!”

  Brooke waved and twirled upward, faster and faster, until she was just a golden blur. She vanished in a flutter of wings, leaving behind a dazzling spray of fairy dust that shimmered like a fireworks display.

  “Rachel! Kirsty!” called Jessica, making them jump.

  The girls stepped out from behind the plants and saw Jessica, Cam, Ella, and the other winners standing outside the café. Dean had fixed his spaceship, and Layla had her soccer ball back.

  “Ready to give the photo shoot another try?” asked Cam.

  Everyone nodded, and Cam asked Dean and Layla to pose first. This time, the camera worked perfectly, and nothing else went wrong.

  “Fantastic!” exclaimed Cam, snapping shot after shot. “Wonderful! These look great!”

  When it was Rachel and Kirsty’s turn, they posed in front of the potted palms with their arms around each other. Just as Cam was about to take the picture, something wonderful happened — a rainbow appeared in the sky behind the girls!

  “What an amazing natural backdrop for the shot!” exclaimed Cam. “These photos are going to be perfect for the special issue of The Fountains Fashion News.”

  “I can’t wait for the fashion show!” said Ella. “Looking at all of you, I can tell that it’s going to be absolutely fantastic.”

  Kirsty, Rachel, Dean, and Layla smiled at one another.

  “It’ll be awesome,” said Dean.

  “Tomorrow is going to be so much fun,” added Layla.

  Rachel and Kirsty hoped that they were right. But there was still one more magical object to get back from Jack Frost! A worried frown appeared on Kirsty’s face as she thought about it. Rachel grinned at her best friend and squeezed her hand.

  “We won’t let Jack Frost ruin the fashion show,” she whispered. “Don’t worry, Kirsty. The Fashion Fairies can count on us!”

  Kirsty and Rachel helped Brooke find her magic camera. Now it’s time for the girls to help

  Lola

  the Fashion Show Fairy!

  Read on for a sneak peek. . . .

  Kirsty Tate was very excited. Today, she and her best friend, Rachel Walker, were going to be in a fashion show! Not only that, but they would be wearing outfits they had designed and made themselves, after entering a special competition held at Tippington Fountains Shopping Center earlier that week.

  “I hope I don’t trip on the catwalk.” Rachel giggled as she, Kirsty, and her parents walked to their meeting place in the mall. “Knowing me, I’ll fall flat on my face and totally embarrass myself.”

  “No, you won’t,” Kirsty reassured her, squeezing her hand. “You’ll be fabulous. And everyone will love your rainbow jeans, I just know it.”

  Rachel smiled at her. “I’m so glad we’re doing this together,” she said.

  “Me, too.” Kirsty grinned. “All of our best adventures happen when we’re together, don’t they?”

  The two girls exchanged a look, their eyes sparkling. No one else knew that they shared an amazing secret. They were friends with the fairies, and they had enjoyed lots of wonderful, magical fairy adventures. Sometimes, the girls had even been turned into fairies themselves, and had been able to fly!

  This week, Kirsty was staying with Rachel’s family for fall break. Once again, the two friends had found themselves magically whisked away to Fairyland when a brand-new fairy adventure began! They’d been invited to see a fairy fashion show, but it had unfortunately been hijacked by Jack Frost. He and his goblins had barged in, all wearing outfits from Jack Frost’s new designer label, Ice Blue. Jack Frost had declared that everyone should wear his line of clothes, so they’d all look like him! Then, with a crackling bolt of icy magic, he had stolen the Fashion Fairies’ seven magical objects and vanished into the human world.
