Kirsty’s parents have just dropped her and Rachel off at an adventure camp for the week. A counsellor named Lucy shows the girls to the cabin, which they stay in only long enough to choose bunks and set down their bags before going outside to look at a map. The glass over the map begins shining and sparkling, and King Oberon’s voice tells the girls to hurry to Fairyland because there’s trouble. Hiding behind the camp clubhouse to use their lockets, the girls soon arrive in front of The Fairyland Palace, where Oberon and Titania introduce the Magical Animal Fairies and explain that Jack Frost has stolen this year’s baby magical animals, which are supposed to be trained for a year by their respective fairies so they can bring good things to the human and fairy worlds. In the queen’s seeing pool, the girls and fairies see that the magical animals caused havoc in the Ice Castle before escaping to the human world, with Jack Frost sending Goblins after them.
The girls agree to help search for the animals, which should be easier to find with their untrained magic acting up. Ashley the Dragon Fairy returns to the human world with them because she’s worried Sizzle the baby dragon might have a cold. Back at the camp, Ashley hides in Kirsty’s hair when the girls meet their cabinmates Emma, Katie, Natasha, and Catherine. Lucy announces a caving trip, telling all the girls to wear rain gear over warm clothes, and Ashley moves to Rachel’s coat pocket. All the campers are given helmets with lights attached.
At the cave entrance, Lucy counts heads and is perplexed to count more campers than expected. She starts calling names instead and Kirsty notices the “extra” campers, who look suspiciously like goblins, sneaking into the cave. The counselors finish the roll call and lead the campers into the cave, where they soon notice it’s abnormally warm and dry inside. Rachel spies some little clawed footprints, which mean Sizzle must be nearby and warming up the cave. Lucy announces a race to see who can find the center of the cave labyrinth first, and the girls take a side tunnel where they encounter three jumpy goblins.
Rachel gets an idea and warns the goblins that the cave is full of Pogwurzels. Kirsty joins in and Ashley uses her magic to make a roaring sound that frightens the goblins away. She and the girls continue towards the middle of the cave - they’re close enough to hear Sizzle sneezing when his magic hits them - first they seem to have run out of ideas entirely, then comes a wave of inspiration that, from the voices they can hear in the other tunnels, must have reached the other campers too. Ashley turns the girls into fairies so they can fly and reach Sizzle in the middle before anyone else does. After reuniting with the baby dragon, Ashley turns the girls back into humans and vanishes just as Lucy arrives, impressed the girls have found their way so quickly.Trivia[]
