  Rachel looked around and instantly saw a big mountain of ice right nearby that looked like it led right to the goblins.
"How about I slide down that sheet of ice towards the goblins to scare them away from the penguins, and maybe find out if they have Serena's charm in the process?"

"Are you sure?" Kirsty asked.
"I'm sure," Rachel replied, "Don't worry, I won't hurt anyone."  

She started climbing up the mountain and looked down at everyone once she reached the top. She mouthed the words 'here I go' to Kirsty and Serena before sliding off the side of the mountain.
She was enjoying the adrenaline rush so much she didn't watch where she was going and bumped hard against a chunk of ice. She rolled right into the goblins' path and disrupted their fighting.

"Hey what do you think you're doing?" A tall goblin with big ears called out.
"I bet she's a helper of those pesky fairies." Said a short, chubby goblin.

Rachel looked up at them and scowled before collapsing from the pain emitting from her leg.
"We should just leave her," the third goblin answered, "I don't think she'll be able to catch up after us any time soon."

They all laughed joyfully while walking away. Rachel looked up again and could see a sparkly moon shaped charm dangling from the tall goblin's wrist. 'Serena's Sadness Charm!' she thought, 'if only I could catch up to them and get it.'

"Rachel!" Kirsty cried out. She ran over to Rachel and flung her arms around her. "Are you ok? you look like you badly hurt yourself."
"I'm fine," Rachel replied, wincing as she moved her leg.

"I can help you with that," Serena said. She flew up to Rachel and put her hands on her leg. She muttered some magic words and soon a warm glow emitted from Rachel's leg. After a short while it faded away and Rachel was free to move her leg around.

"Oh wow you healed it!" Rachel cried out, "Thanks Serena!"
Serena nodded before collapsing. She lifted her wand and a few tiny, weak sparkles drifted out of the tip.

"Serena!" Kirsty cried.
