Pix and Sili were going over their Flower Power homework together. Up above, Twink could hear Soozeâs voice, arguing good-naturedly with Mariella. âNow, look here, Mosquito-Nose . . .â
Propping her chin on her hands, Twink breathed in the smells of the damp spring night. How lucky she was, to be a fourth-year student at Glitterwings Academy â and the school Games Fairy too!
The poles on the Fledge field rose up in the moonlight as Twink thought of all the games her team would play there over the next few years. And whether they won or lost, she would be there, doing her best to lead them.
âYou know what, Bimi?â said Twink after a pause.
âWhat?â asked her best friend with a friendly nudge.
Twink smiled. âIâm sort of proud of me, too.â
