Almost a season had passed since the four of them arrived on Waffle Island. They used this time to gather information from the townsfolk and help Kevin with his recipes however they could. They discovered that Kevin is the only one who stood out, without any obvious reason, as the rest look like the villagers back on Castanet. They were unsure why this was the case, or since it was, why there was not a Witch Princess or Wizard, but they continued with their mission as they needed. They would receive information through disguises they would put on Molly and have her talk to him while the other two followed since they were invisible.
One of their favorite disguises to have Molly take on was Dr. Jin, as he usually did not come into the Inn after work, which is where Kevin worked part-time. Of course, it was an initial shock for the town when the people saw the Doctor started coming more often, but slowly, they got used to it. Of course, to avoid suspicion, it was not very often, and they made sure it seemed like he kept mostly to himself. It was usually once a week, sometimes twice, sometimes zero. One time, Molly tried talking to him about the rainbow, which at the time, there was only one that he completed through the sprite, who according to Finn, was named Darren.
"Say, Kevin, what would you think if I told you rainbows are just a refraction and reflection of light off of water that disperse our color spectrum?" Kevin raised his eyebrows and replied, "I can't say for sure. Are you talking about that one rainbow at the town hall?" Molly answered, "Yes. It's a phenomenon. Some myths say that the Harvest Sprites of the Goddess that only children see can climb the mountains. Of course, it is just a myth." Kevin sweated a little and said, "That's… interesting."
"How do you think you would feel, being able to climb up light?"
"It… has to be interesting…," Kevin answered with a slight chuckle. Molly sighed, and said, "Don't lie. I saw you climbing the rainbow." Kevin went bug-eyed, and Wizard and Witch Princess' jaws were dropped. "Can we talk about this… upstairs?"
Molly and the other two followed Kevin upward into a hotel room. "Please don't tell anyone, Jin. The Harvest Goddess sent me on this journey to restore the rainbows. It'll improve the islands soil, winds, and seas, and overall, it'll be a happier place." Molly held up his right hand and said, "You have my word, this will be kept in complete secrecy." Kevin sighed with relief and Molly continued, "How did you restore that rainbow? I can only presume it was you. Am I correct?" asked fake Jin. "Yes. It requires a specific recipe that the Sprites you mentioned mix together and it forms a rainbow. They give me a badge that allows me to walk on these rainbows." Molly nodded and said, "I see. I would suggest that you not mention this to me in public, but if you think that I can be of any assistance, please let me know when I'm in the bar where we can have privacy." Kevin nodded and said, "As a matter of fact, you might be. I know it's not your profession, but do you have an eggplant?" Molly raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why?"
"I have to make grilled eggplant for this recipe. I would grow it, but my eggplants aren't of good quality because of the soil quality."
"I see. I might be able to help. If I can make it, I can come to your home tomorrow with it. Hopefully, this sprite you mention can be of some assistance."
Kevin beamed and thanked this Jin profusely. "I'm quite exhausted, so I'll return home. If I can make it, I'll come by tomorrow."
Fake Jin went back downstairs and left the Inn. When they got far enough into the farmland that they would not be seen by anyone, the three of them teleported back to their campsite. "Are you crazy?! Now we have to make a dumb grilled eggplant! Isn't he supposed to think he did this anyway?!" Witch Princess yelled. "Wait a minute, Witch Princess. Finn, I want you to find out which sprite wants the grilled eggplant." He flew off in search, and Wizard continued, "Now, we don't have to make it. But… we can help the soil quality… we just have to find one of his eggplant stalks… and add more nitrogen and other nutrients to make it of good quality." Witch Princess nodded, and said, "Let me get that ridiculous disguise off you," in which she snapped her fingers returned Molly to her original self, "but now, we have to keep surveillance on Jin so we can overtake his mind. We don't want him suspicious." Wizard sighed and said, "I don't like doing it… but it is our only option to save the island. I'm going to find an eggplant stalk on his farm…"
He teleported to Kevin's farm. He saw that Kevin was walking back to his home and since he was invisible to him, continued with his work. He walked over to his crops, however, and started talking to himself. "Maybe Jin won't have to… these babies should be regrown in a few days… so maybe if I'm lucky, I can get a good quality eggplant. I hope I can save this place… I wonder if anyone else has ever been in my shoes…" Kevin walked back to his house and closed the door. He reminded him of Molly, in a both sentimental and eerie way. He wondered about how eerily similar this island was to Castanet. Before he could let his mind wander, he finished giving the eggplants more nutrition and returned to the campsite.
A few days passed since that moment. They knew that the eggplants should have been grown, so Wizard and Molly agreed to camp out at the location Finn told them about: Maple Lake, not far from his farm. Witch Princess played seer and watched over Jin, ready to overtake him at any moment, should Kevin try talking to him. Wizard and Molly sat outside where the flower was growing, with Finn sitting on Molly's lap happily. "Do you think he got his eggplant?" Molly asked. "I hope so. I used the proper method to induce the nutrition… maybe he did." Molly shrugged and continued to watch out with her cloak on her. She didn't need to watch for long, because at around 10:00 AM, they saw Kevin running towards the flower.
He watered it and awoke the sprite, Ben. He took out the required items for the recipe. Once Ben saw that he had them, he got to work. Mixing together his fish, his dishes, his herbs and crops, they watched as a giant, beautiful rainbow soared into the sky. Kevin was hopping for joy, and Wizard and Molly sat there mesmerized by the phenomenon. Ben was happy too, but all of their hopes were quashed when something else happened. "No badge?!" Kevin yelled. Ben cried back into his plant form, and Kevin placed his palm to his forehead, moaned and ran away. "Well, now what?" Before Wizard could answer her, they heard a voice in their heads. "Uh, guys, we have a problem. There's a rainbow in our campsite." Wizard responded, "Don't worry. That rainbow is as good as useless to him. We have another problem… the badge he needs is missing.
"What?! Who lost it?!"
"The sprite who was responsible for making the rainbow."
Witch Princess groaned. "Incompetence. Sheer incompetence!"
