Firefly jumped on the wind and, soaring higher and higher, thought she might look for the rainbow.  She knew it loved to play hide and seek.  "I wonder where it's hiding today?" she thought.  The wind whispered the answer in her ear.  "Thanks for the ride!" Firefly said as she jumped off.  She danced across the sky, sailing from cloud to cloud.  Finally she saw the snow-crested mountain peaks.  Nestled in the deep mountain valley was the rainbow.  Firefly laughed because under the rainbow was [[Blossom]], sound asleep!

Year 2 Firefly - US Backcard Story

G1 Firefly's US Backcard

Firefly jumped on the wind and, soaring higher and higher, thought she might look for the rainbow. She knew it loved to play hide and seek. "I wonder where it's hiding today?" she thought. The wind whispered the answer in her ear. "Thanks for the ride!" Firefly said as she jumped off. She danced across the sky, sailing from cloud to cloud. Finally she saw the snow-crested mountain peaks. Nestled in the deep mountain valley was the rainbow. Firefly laughed because under the rainbow was Blossom, sound asleep!
