The girls ran to the edge of the pool. They fell on their knees and splashed the cool water on their faces.

Kate scooped up some to drink. She stopped with her hand halfway to her mouth. “Hold on. Is this safe?”

“Let me check,” Silvermist said.

The water fairy plucked up a droplet of water. Holding it between her hands, she peered into it as if it were a crystal ball. She sniffed it. She stuck out her tongue and tasted it.

“Perfectly safe!” Silvermist declared.

The girls gulped handfuls of water. The fairies drank, too, dipping down like hummingbirds to skim water from the surface.

Dewdrop didn’t want the water. He headed straight for the mist. He climbed into the pool and splashed across it to reach the cloud rising from the waterfall.

“Good idea, Dewdrop!” Kate said. She took off her shoes and jumped into the pool.

A minute later, all the girls had jumped in. They laughed and splashed one another.

Dewdrop whinnied and came toward them, lifting his knees high. He wanted to play, too!

Lainey splashed water on him. He darted away, then came back for more. As the mist and water collected on his coat, it began to shine. He looked like he had when Lainey first saw him in the meadow.

“Look, a rainbow!” Gabby said. The sunlight shining down on them made a faint, shimmering band of color in the mist.

“You call that a rainbow?” Iridessa scoffed.

Silvermist stood up. She and Iridessa exchanged a grin. “We’ll show you a rainbow.”

The light and water fairies began to dart through the air above the pool. Their hands moved quickly, as if they were plucking invisible threads and weaving them together. As they moved back and forth, bands of color appeared in the air behind them—red, orange, yellow, green, blue. A brilliant streak of violet came last.

The fairies came to a stop. A beautiful rainbow arced over the pool. “Now, that’s a rainbow!” Iridessa declared, dusting off her hands.

The girls clapped. “Fairies make the best rainbows,” said Lainey.

“They’re one of our specialties,” Silvermist replied with a wink.

“Did fairies invent rainbows?” Gabby asked.

“Oh no,” Silvermist told her. “One day, at the beginning of time, the sun looked down on Pixie Hollow. When she saw how beautiful it was, she cried tears of joy. That was how the first rainbow was made. Fairies have been copying them ever since.”

Iridessa smiled and shook her head. “There you go with your myths again, Silvermist.”

“Look at Dewdrop!” Mia exclaimed.

The foal had crossed the pool to reach the end of the rainbow. He raised one hoof and pawed the air, as if he was trying to climb onto it.

Gabby laughed. “He thinks it’s a bridge!”
