The Last Rainbow Fairy

The very last page of the very last Rainbow Fairy book I'll ever read. Helena the Horse Fairy. The youngest Darling Daughter is five today and is therefore too old for such infantile nonsense. Last night it ended thus:
"That was exciting", Rachel said, as she mounted Shadow, noticing how much easier it was this time, Kirsty nodded. "Yes" she said, "Now we just have to find the other six Magic Sporty Objects in time for the Fairyland Olympics.". She grinned. "I think this is going to be a fairy busy week!".
I grinned back at Kirsty. And in a silvery voice, reminiscent perhaps of Jack Frost himself, I cackled "Not for me it isn't, not for me ... HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA...".
