- The Firestone: makes sure all fairies and humans have heat and keeps fires alight.
Job: Gabriella's job is to make winter fun for everybody.
Jack Frost's Poem[]
It's icy cold and freezing now that winter's here
Snowstorms and icy sleet - my favourite time of the year
But what's this - smiling faces? People having fun?
I think I'll spoil the snow for everyone!
The Magic Snowflake I shall steal
The Silver Chest and Firestone too
How they'll shiver, how they'll sigh
When my work is through!

Gabriella's Magic Snowflake[]
Kirsty and Rachel step out of their holiday chalet to test the snow. They attempt skiing and snowboarding but the snow is hard, and they see a little girl struggling to build a snowman. They try having a snowball fight, when a fairy suddenly bursts from within a snowball. She introduces herself as Gabriella and explains that Jack Frost has stolen her magic snowflake which keeps the snow soft. Then Kirsty notices a nearby pine forest with falling snow, and Gabriella declares they're proper snowflakes. The trio enter the forest and find goblins playing in a clearing. Rachel asks Gabriella to disguise her and Kirsty as snowmen so they can get closer.
They overhear the goblins talking about Jack Frost holding a party in his Ice Castle, and he wants the snow to be perfect, hence why he took the magic snowflake. The goblins throw the snowflake to each other and it lands near the girls. They're about to pounce, when their disguises vanish. The goblins hurriedly dig the snowflake out of the snow, and escape down the mountain on sledges and snowboards. The girls ski and snowboard after them, and one goblin passes the snowflake to another. Rachel manages to grab it but loses her grip, and another goblin grabs it. Kirsty asks Gabriella to magic a snowdrift at the bottom of the mountain, and all the goblins crash into it. They see a green hand holding the snowflake and Gabriella shrinks it to fairy size, before she thanks the girls and vanishes. The girls watch the goblins climb out of the snowdrift, and Kirsty comments the holiday has just begun.
Happy Holidays[]
The girls are walking through the snow when they notice other people looking glum. They then see a sparkly snowflake with Gabriella behind. She explains Jack Frost has stolen her chest of festive spirit, and without it, no one will be happy. She further explains Jack Frost sneaked into the Fairyland palace disguised as a carol singer to take the chest back to his Ice Castle. The trio are whisked there, and Rachel suggests disguising themselves as delivery people so they can get past the goblin guards. Gabriella magics up a cake to take with them and they manage to get the guards to let them inside. They drop the cake off in the kitchen, and Kirsty suggests letting her and Rachel get arrested so they can get taken to Jack Frost. Gabriella shrinks herself to hide in Kirsty's pocket, and the girls let themselves get caught by the guards and taken to Jack Frost.
In the throne room, the girls try and convince Jack that Gabriella has taken the Festive Spirit; he decides to check by completing a sliding puzzle in the floor and lifts the chest out, gloating that she has failed. Rachel then persuades him that the chest is fake, and he opens the chest, taking out a decanter. A vapour swirls around his head and he becomes happy, putting the decanter back inside the chest. Kirsty asks for the chest, and he gives it to her. Outside, Gabriella thanks the girls and reassures them the Festive Spirit will replenish itself for the winter festival, before sending them back to the resort. The girls hear laughter from the slopes, pleased that the Festive Spirit is working.
Quest for Fire[]
Rachel and Kirsty return to their holiday chalet after spending time outdoors, but they're disappointed when there is no fire. The girls parents suggest going to the winter festival early; as the girls are getting ready, Gabriella appears from one of Rachel's gloves, and explains that Jack Frost was angry over the Festive Spirit being given back, so he sent the goblins to steal her magic Firestone. The girls and their parents leave for the festival, where they find people struggling to light the huge bonfire. Mrs Tate gives the girls some money and the chance to look around. They find a toasted bogmallows stall run by goblins dressed as elves, with the Firestone heating the bogmallows. The girls decide to buy a bogmallow each and try and grab the Firestone, but a goblin takes it. As they eat, they overhear the goblins discussing presents for Jack Frost's party, and Rachel asks Gabriella to magic up an ice statue of Jack Frost.
The girls carry the ice statue and offer to swap it for the Firestone, but the goblins won't accept unless it is gift wrapped. Gabriella does do, and before the Firestone is handed over, Jack Frost appears demanding his present. The goblins present him with the parcel and he opens it. He praises the statue and promises the goblins they'll have a great time at the party, before disappearing. The goblins hand over the Firestone and Gabriella thanks the girls before leaving for Fairyland. The girls run back to join their parents in time for the bonfire and fireworks.Trivia[]
