Back on the warm side of Pixie Hollow, Tinker Bell knocked on Clank and Bobble’s door. There were sounds of scuffling inside, followed by the door slowly opening. Tinker Bell peered around the edge.

“Guys?” she asked.

Foomp!

A net suddenly shot out and wrapped around her.

“Aagh!” Tinker Bell cried.

Clank stepped out with his spring-loaded troll-stopping gun in hand. A look of surprise crossed his face when he saw Tinker Bell trapped in the net.

“Tink! You’re back!” Bobble gasped behind him.

“Yes,” Tinker Bell said, slightly annoyed by the unexpected greeting. She wriggled against the net.

“Sorry.” Clank helped her get untangled. “We thought you were a troll.”

“I knew we shouldn’t have used the troll stopper.” Bobble shook his head.

“But what if it was a troll?” Clank asked.

“Guys,” Tinker Bell interrupted. “I need your help. But it’s kind of a secret. I don’t want everybody to know.”

Tinker Bell’s friends exchanged a glance. Then they looked at her with interest. When Tinker Bell had a secret plan in mind, they knew something exciting was about to start.

Tink quickly explained to Clank and Bobble about everything that had happened. Then she told them about her plan to bring Periwinkle to the warm side of Pixie Hollow. Soon, all three tinker fairies were busy at work. Tinker Bell and Bobble hammered away at a mysterious-looking contraption, while Clank went to collect extra Lost Things for them to use.

“Now, where is that Clanky?” Bobble asked after some time had passed.

“I’m right here,” Clank replied, wheeling in a cart of extra supplies. Tinker Bell looked up to see what he had brought…and instead saw Fawn, Rosetta, Silvermist, Iridessa, and Vidia standing next to him.

“Oh,” she sighed, feeling as if she had been caught.

“I didn’t tell everybody,” Clank assured her. “Just Fawn, Ro, Sil, Dess, and Vidia.”

Vidia flew right in Tinker Bell’s face and looked her up and down. She crossed her arms. “So, there’s another you?” she asked matter-of-factly.

“Vidia!” Rosetta scolded.

Tinker Bell nodded. “Yeah, I’ve got a sister.”

“I told you,” Clank said proudly.

Tinker Bell told her fairy friends all about the Winter Woods, and how she and Periwinkle had been born of the same laugh. She explained how Periwinkle’s wings were identical to hers, and how both sisters’ wings sparkled when they were near one another.

“I’m making this machine so she can come here and meet you all,” Tinker Bell said. “And after that, we’ll go straight to Queen Clarion.”

Tink’s friends exchanged worried glances.

“Um, have you thought this through?” Vidia asked.

“When Queen Clarion hears how we found each other, and that we’re sisters, she’ll change Lord Milori’s rule,” Tinker Bell said determinedly.

“Of course she will,” Rosetta said.

“It’s like you found the perfect Lost Thing,” Silvermist said with a smile.

“And I’m never going to lose her,” Tinker Bell replied.

“Well, then let’s get to work!” Iridessa exclaimed.

Tinker Bell clapped her hands and grinned from ear to ear. She was so happy that her friends were going to help her with her plan. With everyone working together, she just knew everything would turn out perfectly. She had the best friends in Pixie Hollow!

And soon her friends would see that she had the best sister in Pixie Hollow, too.
