As day turned to night and the sky darkened, Tink relied on her sextant to get her bearings. “I just need to angle the moon with the horizon,” she muttered, mainly to reassure herself that she was perfectly capable of making this trip on her own.

What difference does it make if it is pitch-black dark? she thought. What difference does it make if I am by myself ? What diff—Oh, no! What is that?

A glowing mass in the distance was heading straight for her. It was a swarm of fireflies. A swarm of fireflies being pursued by a bat!

ZOOM! ZIP! WHIZ!

The swarm swept past Tink like a tiny hurricane of shooting stars. She ducked this way and that. BUMP! A baby firefly smacked right into the rope. Tink moved to help him.

“Yeow!” She quickly ducked when the bat came swooping over the top of the gourd basket, narrowly missing her.

Tink slowly lifted her head. The bat was gone. So was the baby firefly. Tink swallowed hard, hoping the firefly had avoided becoming the bat’s dinner. She checked the ropes on her balloon and adjusted her course, dropping a few pots and pans to get a little more lift.

Once her nerves began to calm, she realized that the flutter in her stomach wasn’t just fear. “I’m starving!” she said in surprise. She leaned over and opened one of her supply bags. It was empty. “My boysenberry rolls! What happened to them?” She reached into another supply bag and heard a growl from inside.

Alarmed, Tink withdrew her hand. What in the world? She leaned down to see what was in her bag. Suddenly, a light shone in her face, blinding her. “Ahh!” Tink stumbled back as the bag jiggled.

She grabbed a large stick. Very carefully, she poked the bag and lifted the top. She peered inside and her mouth fell open.

Inside the bag was the baby firefly. His stomach bulged and he let out a contented burp. Tink picked up the bag and dumped him out, along with a batch of crumbs. “My cheese! My pumpernickel muffin!”

She glared at the fat little firefly. She’d been worried that he had been eaten by the bat. Judging by this guy’s appetite, though, it was probably the bat who should have been worried!

Tink picked the firefly up and set him outside her now-empty food bag. “Out! Shoo! Go find your friends.” She gave him a little push, but the firefly fluttered at the edge of the basket.

“Stop following me. I’m on a very important mission. I have two days to find the magic mirror and wish the moonstone back.”

The firefly saluted, as if to offer his services.

“No,” Tinker Bell said. “I don’t need any help.” She turned her back and studied the map.

The firefly refused to be ignored. He hovered beside her, inching closer and closer until his glowing behind was right between her face and the map. Tink sighed. Now what?

Her eye rested on a stick. Aha! She grabbed the stick and shook it teasingly.
