Tortoise and the Hare

The town of Rainbow Springs is in crisis. Their gold mines have produced more gold dust than the creatures in the area can handle. Something must be done. A town meeting is called and a decision is made to haul the dust out of the magical land and into the mortal world. Blue is a fairy chosen to make the flight through the mortal portal. Blue gets sidetracked along the way. She comes across a band of lightening bugs who need her help. Making an effort to stick to the fairy code and always help a creature in need, Blue creates a new set of problems of her own.
