What About Rosetta? - Chapter 5 - The Lost Seed Plan

Rosetta stood behind a table on the stadium floor, waiting for Fern. On the table were stacked baskets and containers full of seeds, small flower blossoms, twines and other knick-knacks used by the garden-talents to decorate the stadium for the Pixie Hollow Games. Rosetta estimated Fern would arrive any minute, with The Basket.

Fern soon glided over the top of the seating stands, and down toward the field floor. Rosetta quickly snatched up arm-loads of baskets - much more than a fairy would normally carry, and jumped into the air. Her forward vision was completely blocked, except for a small gap between the baskets. Rosetta headed straight for Fern.

Fern didn't see Rosetta charging in from the side, and the 2 collided in mid-air. Baskets, contents, and the 2 fairies fell the short distance to the stadium turf floor with shouts of surprise. Rosetta jumped up quickly and began gathering debris, while Fern was just sitting up.

"Oh Fern, I am so sorry!" Rosetta picked up small flower petals with written names, returning them to Fern's basket. "I'm such a klutz today! Let me help you with those." Fern, still stunned, began slowly doing the same.

As Rosetta picked up petal after petal, she quickly checked the name written on each. Her plan was to find her own name, and make it disappear. She noticed a few of the petals were a bit sticky. "Those messy tinkers!" she thought, "Leaving spots of their tree sap behind!" She had one with a sticky back in her right hand, which she was about to wipe on the turf, when she read the petal in her left hand: Rosetta.

Rosetta froze momentarily as a new idea popped into her head. "Hey, it's me!" smiled Rosetta, showing Fern the petal in her left hand. She then slapped her name to the sticky back of the other petal, and tossed them both into Fern's basket.

After they had returned all the names to Fern's basket, Fern called "Gather 'round, garden-fairies!". Rosetta took her place in the crowd of nervous garden-talents, smug with the thought that her own name was securely stuck behind another name, and would never be read.
