So wait, Layla, you're telling me the moon is gonna change colors?

Not actually.

It's just going to look like it because of the glow from the fairies.

The fate fairies are at their most magical under the Fairy Moon.

There are even rare types of them that only appear tonight.

So when the sun sets,

all those glowing fairies are gonna light up the sky!

Wow. When Ms. Primrose said Fairy Moon,

I thought it was just an expression, like, "Once in a blue moon."

Actually, Ava, blue moons are real too.

-What? -

Isabel, you know it's a holiday, right? You can take the day off.

Hi, have we met?

Evil doesn't take days off, and neither do I.

You've gotta be strong if you wanna be an ace unicorn rider.

Ah, well, if you're so strong,

how come I'm gonna beat you to the stables?

What? No way! Get back here, Sophia!

- -Morning, River.

- -Hey, Valentina.

-Busy. -

How much are we loving having a day with no classes?

It's not a day off, Rory.

The Fairy Moon is a big deal.

Today's about honoring the fate fairies' magic.

Ooh, good. I'd do anything to thank them for matching me with Leaf.

Me too.

They led me and my dad to Wildstar.

And I'm grateful to the fairies for getting us the day off school.

Yeah, yeah, the fairies are great,

but I think we all know what today is really about.

The Flower Foraging.

-And we're gonna win it, aren't we, boy? -

It's not actually a competition.

Not with that attitude.

This girl gets it, right?

Val? Valentina?

Hey, Sparky!

Ugh, what?

Ready to lose?

Lose what? We're just picking flowers.

Aw, come on, dude!

What happened to my old nemesis?

I know you like to win. Pew, pew, pew, pow, pow!

I am focused on things that actually matter.

Honoring the fate fairies?

What? No.

I'm obviously talking about the Fairy Moon masquerade ball tonight.

Cinder and I are so gonna be best dressed at the party.

There she is.

Please, Valentina.

No one's gonna be looking at you two

once Storm and I rock onto the scene with these moves.

-Ooh! Hoo! Ta! Hey! -

Storm, nice.

- Go, Rory! - All right!

Ooh, time for the foraging. Eat my unicorn dust!

Ha! Hi-yah!

Yeah, that's on-brand.

Welcome, unicorn riders, to the Flower Foraging.

- Yay! -Yeah!

-All right! -Woo-hoo!

-Woo-hoo! Yeah! -

Today is about honoring the fate fairies,

who matched us with our beloved unicorns.

But to add to these festivities,

we'll need these.

Starburst flowers.

This rare flower only blooms under the Fairy Moon,

and you and your unicorns

will be collecting all the flowers you can find.

They make lovely decorations,

but when the moon rises,

the flowers will open for a real surprise.

Everyone ready?

-Never readier. -

-Come on, giddyap, giddyap! Let's go! - Whoa!

- - Yeah!

Aha! Spotted.

Whoa! Hey!

Ha! Me, one. Everyone else, zilch.

That's Isabel for ya.

Oh, hello.

Do you smell as good as you look?

Even better.

- -

Heads up.

Check it.

The forecast calls for a storm.

Boom!

Huh?

Now who's bringing the thunder?

It can never just be simple flower picking with you, huh?

Well, I'd say I earned a nap.

- -

Race you to it.

Uh-uh. I did not spend all morning combing your mane to get thorns in it.

Ah, you're no fun!

Gotcha!

Ha! Who's better than us, buddy?

No way I'm losing to them.

Jackpot!

Come on, dude. If we get all those, we'll win for sure.

Check it. We can take that path.

Don't be scared. We've got this.

- -

Whoa, that does not look like a good idea.

Isabel, what are you doing?

- Winning! -It's not actually a contest.

Says you. I'm gonna honor the fate fairies

by reminding them why they picked me to be a unicorn rider.

Come on, buddy. Don't chicken out now.

- -River, quit it.

Just hold still and let me handle this.

- -

Uh, Isabel, please be careful!

Seriously, let it go!

Sorry, Mendoza, that's not my style.

Just chill, River.

I'm not a quitter. That's why I'm here. I can do this.

- -Oh, I can't look.

I almost have it!

- Look out! -

There you go.

Would you stop looking at me like that?

I'm fine. Ugh. Ow.

Fine like a bull in a bounce house.

'Fraid there won't be any riding for you for a while.

But, uh, I'm a unicorn rider. Th… that's what I do.

Not until you heal up.

Dude, I didn't even know you could get hurt. What happened?

It was an accident.

But you're one of the best riders here. And you were picking flowers.

I mean, this is like a pro-baller breaking their leg on a layup.

That's because it wasn't my fault!

I told you I had it. If you'd just listened to me and not freaked out,

this wouldn't have happened.

Now I have to sit around falling behind while the rest of you lap me.

Isabel, I know you're upset, but it was an accident.

Why don't we just try and have some fun?

Yeah. Fun would be fun.

I mean, it's a beautiful day, and there's fairies everywhere,

and we still have a masquerade ball to get ready for.

-I'm not in the mood for a party. -"Not in the mood for a party"?

I do not understand these words.

You can go if you want, River.

At least you can still walk.

Um, is it okay if I'm still excited about the ball?

Of course.

Today's about celebrating the fairies.

Speaking of, we better go get ready.

She didn't mean it, River. She'll be okay soon.
