Her Royal Spyness
It was evening in Enchancia. Sofia, Madeline and Amber were in the royal sitting room. Sofia was on a chair, reading a book, while Madeline was lying on a couch, and Amber was looking at the night sky through a telescope.
"There's Dragonicus!" Amber gasped. "Now I'm going to find... Castleopeia!"
"I don't believe it!" Sofia said suddenly.
"Huh?" Madeline sat up.
"Well, it is possible, Sofia." Amber smiled. "My new telescope lets me see things from really far away."
"No, not that." Sofia retorted. "It's these amazing creature I'm reading about called Sealians."
"Sea... what?" Madeline frowned.
"Oh. What's so amazing about them?" Amber asked.
"They're half-seal, so they can swim and flip and do all kinds of seal stuff in the water." Sofia explained. "But Sealians are also half-human, so they can walk on land, too."
"Really?" Madeline gaped. "Let me see!"
"Here, look." Sofia held open the book, showing a picture of a creature with a human-like top half, and seal flippers and tail.
Amber looked at the book.
"Hmm. Sealian expert Professor Zacharias Fleeber says that some people think Sealians sing a magical song that put people under a spell." She read aloud.
"A spell?" Madeline gasped.
"Really?" Sofia asked.
"That's what it says." Amber gave Sofia back the book, then returned to her telescope. "Now, back to stargazing." Her telescope slipped downward. "Oops!"
As Amber looked through it, she saw James giving Rex a bath.
"Huh, what's this?" She asked. Rex shook off the bubbles and leapt out of the tub. "Silly Rex."
As she continued watching, Rex raced past Baileywick, startling him.
"Whoopsies!" She giggled.
Rex then ran past two maids, scaring them.
"He scared the maids!" Amber chuckled. "Watching the stars is fun, but watching people is even more fun!"
There was a knock at the door, and Billy the servant entered.
"Dinner is served, miladies." He announced.
"Come on, Amber." Madeline smiled.
"Let's go!" Sofia added.
"Oh, alright." Amber said reluctantly.
A short while later, Sofia, Madeline, Amber, James and Miranda were sat around a small table, eating dinner.
"And the book also said not much is known about Sealians because they live on an island in the Stormy Triangle, this rainy part of the ocean that's really hard to sail to." Sofia revealed.
"Awesome!" James grinned.
"Yes, indeed." Miranda nodded. "Now, since your father is in Tangu for the Tri-Kingdom summit, it's the perfect time to discuss his birthday tomorrow!"
"I've already planned a fabulous party!" Amber revealed. "Complete with daddy's favorite foods! Spoiler alert: There'll be jiggly-wiggly pudding!"
"I've got a pretty special surprise up my sleeve, too." James declared, rolling up a sleeve. "i'd tell you, but it's a surprise!"
"I haven't gotten dad anything for his birthday yet." Madeline sighed.
"Me neither." Sofia admitted.
"I have a hard time getting your father presents too." Miranda confessed. "After all, he is a King. But I'm sure he'll love anything you give him, girls."
"May I be excused?" James asked. "I need to walk Rex."
"Have you eaten your vegetables?" Miranda asked.
"Yep, every one." James showed his empty plate. "They were de-lish."
"May I be excused, too?" Amber asked. "I can't wait to get back to my new telescope."
"You may be excused." Miranda stood up.
"Thank you, mother." Amber smiled.
The girls returned to the study.
"Do you think I could see all the way to the Stormy Triangle with your telescope?" Sofia asked Amber.
"I don't think so..." Madeline frowned.
"Let's find out." Amber looked through the telescope. "Oh! Well, well, well, what do we have here? James is not walking Rex like he said he was."
"He's not?" Sofia asked.
"Well, what's he doing?" Madeline asked.
James emptied the contents of a bucket onto some grass.
"He's dumping the vegetables he sad he ate into the garden!" Amber declared.
"Why would he do that?" Sofia took a peek.
"Oh, do I understand my brother's silly ways? No." Amber smirked. "Would I make sure they get him in trouble? Yes!"
"Wait, Amber!" Madeline called, as Amber rushed out of the room.
The girls followed Amber outside.
"Amber, it might not be what it looks like." Sofia pointed out.
"But I saw it through my telescope." Amber declared, as they reached James. "Aha!"
"Aha what?" James asked.
"I thought I heard voices." Miranda joined them. "What are you kids doing out at night?"
"Unfortunately mother, I'm catching James in a lie." Amber revealed. "He didn't eat his vegetables at dinner like he said, but instead came out here and threw them away."
"I did not!" James insisted, as a group of bunnies emerged from a bush. "I was just feeding these little guys."
"Bunnies!" Madeline smiled.
"Cute, right?" James grinned. "I found them earlier, and wanted to bring them some food."
"Oh. Uh... is that so?" Amber said sheepishly.
"Sure is." James declared. "And just so you know, these are extra veggies the chef gave me from the kitchen."
"You almost got James in trouble for trying to do something nice." Sofia frowned at Amber.
"Amber, your father and I got you that telescope to look at stars, not to watch people without them knowing it." Miranda declared.
"That's called spying." James added.
"I know." Amber sighed.
"And when you spy on something from far away, it can look really different from what's actually going on." Miranda pointed out.
"I guess you're right." Amber nodded. "I won't spy with my telescope anymore. ...Unless I see something really interesting..."
"Amber..." Miranda frowned.
"Okay, I promise not to do it again." Amber pledged, as Miranda led them back indoors.
The next morning, Sofia and Madeline joined Amber in the sitting room.
"Ready for breakfast, Amber?" Madeline asked.
They saw Amber looking through her telescope again.
"You're not spying again, are you?" Sofia frowned.
"I didn't mean to do it." Amber told her. "I was putting away my telescope when something caught my eye outside. and I just had to get a closer look."
"Amber..." Madeline groaned.
"I think you should look too." Amber urged. "I think I see...a Sealian!"
"What?! Where?" Sofia asked.
"Right there." Amber pointed.
Sofia looked through the telescope to see a brown-colored person getting off a boat.
"Whoa..." She gasped.
"Let me look." Madeline saw the same thing. "No way..."
"Doesn't it look just like the Sealian in this picture?" Amber opened the book.
"Same whiskers, and shiny skin, and everything." Sofia agreed.
"But I thought Sealians lived in the Stormy Triangle." Madeline frowned. "Why would one be here in Enchancia?"
A strange noise filled the air.
"That must be the..." Sofia started.
"Sealian song!" Madeline and Amber joined in.
"What does it mean?" Amber asked.
Sofia looked in the book.
"Some people think Sealians use an eerie song to put people under their spell, and lure people to the Stormy Triangle, where they are never heard from again." She read.
"Never heard from again?" Madeline gulped.
As they heard the noise again, Amber looked through her telescope.
"There's someone walking toward the dock!" She gasped.
"Can you see who it is?" Sofia asked.
"It's mom!" Amber declared.
"What?!" Madeline gasped, as she and Sofia looked.
"She's getting on the boat with the Sealian!" Sofia realised.
"The Sealian must be luring her to the Stormy Triangle with its song!" Amber gasped. "We have to tell dad!"
"But he's in Tangu, remember?" Madeline pointed out.
"Oh... then we have to go after her ourselves!" Amber declared.
The three sisters raced to Royal Prep's stables.
"Come on, Minimus!" Sofia said, opening his stable.
"You too, Saffron!" Amber added.
"Okay, yeah." Minimus nodded. "Where are we going? The park? The circus? Dunwitty county fair?"
"I hear the kettle corn there is mighty tasty." Saffron smiled.
"Hyah!" Madeline called, as the horses took off.
"Guess they'll tell us on the way." Minimus remarked.
"Go Saffron, go!" Amber called.
"Let's get to the harbour, Minimus!" Sofia instructed.
"The harbour? Are we gonna spend the day at the beach?" Minimus asked.
"Sweet Jimmies, that sounds fun!" Saffron declared.
They reached the harbour, only to find it empty.
"Oh no, they've already left!" Amber gasped.
"Come on!" Madeline urged. "We've got to save mom from that Sealian!"
"They're probably headed for the Stormy Triangle." Sofia added.
"Stormy Triangle? Sealian?" Minimus frowned. "This doesn't sound like the fun day out I was expecting!"
"Hyah, Minimus!" Madeline called
"Go Saffron, go!" Amber added.
The group flew out to sea, in search of their quarry.
"I don't see their boat anywhere." Sofia frowned.
"What do we do now?" Amber asked.
"We've got to keep looking." Madeline urged.
"Let's go this way!" Sofia pointed.
They continued flying, even going into a rain storm.
"I'm soaked!" Amber complained. "There wasn't a cloud in the sky a minute ago!"
"We must be in the Stormy Triangle." Madeline noted.
"So how long do these storms last?" Amber asked.
"The book said they can be over quickly, or last for hours." Sofia noted.
"Keep going, Minimus!" Madeline urged.
The storm finally subsided.
"Oh, the storm's over!" Amber smiled.
"Good flying, Minimus." Sofia declared.
"Thanks." Minimus grinned. "Can we go home now?"
"Girls, look!" Amber pointed. "An island!"
"And there's someone on the beach!" Madeline added.
There was a man with glasses and an exploring hat looking through a spyglass. The horses landed near him.
"Excuse me?" Amber said, as they rushed over to the man. "Hello? Hello? excuse me, sir?"
"Whoa!" The man slipped on some seaweed. "Oh, wait..." He adjusted his glasses. "That's better."
"Hello. What brings you three to this remote island?"
"We're looking for a boat with our mother on it." Sofia explained.
"Have you seen any go by?" Amber added.
"Boats, boats, boats. Let me check.." The man looked through his spyglass. "Great galoshes, I see one! ...Oh. That's my boat, so that's not what you're looking for, is it?"
"No." Madeline frowned. "A Sealian took our mom on a much bigger boat than that."
"A Sealian?!" The man gasped. "Did you say Sealian? She said Sealian, right?"
"Yeah, that's what she said." Madeline nodded.
"Why?" Amber asked.
"Because I, Professor Zacharias Fleeber, braved the journey to this island in the heart of the Stormy Triangle to study Sealians, up close and personal!" The man declared.
"Wait, the Professor Zacharias Fleeber?" Sofia gasped.
"At your service." Zacharias bowed.
"I read about you in my book, 'Mysterious Creatures'." Sofia smiled. "You're an expert on Sealians!"
"Indeed I do." Zacharias nodded. "I mean, I am."
"Then maybe you can tell us where they might be taking our mom?" Amber asked.
"Maybe I could... if I were really an expert on Sealians." Zacharias sighed.
"But we thought..." Madeline frowned.
"The truth is that no-one is really an expert on Sealians." Zacharias declared. "They're so rare and hard to find that no-one knows very much about them, including me. Why, I've never even seen a Sealian up close. In fact, no-one has Not me, nor you, nor you, nor you, nor me... Oh, wait. I already counted myself."
"So everything you saId in tha article was just-" Sofia started.
"Guesses, hunches, big number crunches." Zacharias nodded. "That's why I'm here, to finally find out what Sealians are really like. What do they eat, how long do they sleep? Do they do jigsaw puzzles? No, probably not. It's not easy being an expert on something you know nothing about."
Zacharias: People think that
I'm the sealian mastermind
Because I wrote so many books on them
But since they live out here
Where the weather's so unkind
I have never laid eyes upon them
I wanna be a pro
learn all there is to know
I wanna be an expert expert
I wanna be top whiz
I wanna ace the quiz
I wanna be an expert expert
I have made a list
That's gotten pretty long
Of questions I am hoping they'll answer
Like what is going on
When they sing their special song
Is it some kind of magic entrancer
Don't wanna be the guy
Pretending to know why
I wanna be an expert expert
I will seek and seek
If it takes 1,000 weeks
I wanna be an expert expert
"Uh, we'd like to help you out, but our mother's gone missing." Amber reminded him.
"What if we join forces, and Look together?" Madeline suggested.
"Yeah." Sofia nodded. "Good thinking, Maddie."
"Golly gads, that's a great idea." Zacharias smiled "You've got flying horses, I got a telescope. Together, we're sure to find your mother and the sealians. Then I'll finally be an expert expert!"
I'm gonna be a pro
learn all there is to know
I'm gonna be an expert expert
I'm gonna be top whiz
I'm gonna ace the quiz
I'm gonna be an expert Sealian expert
An expert
Sealian expert
"Let's go." Madeline smiled
They rushed over to their horses.
"You can ride with me, Professor." Amber offered.
"Actually-factually, it might be a bit squished on those steeds." Zacharias noted. "I'll take my boat. You girls can fly alongside."
As Zacharias walked over to his boat, he tripped on some shells.
"Whoa!" He yelped. "Hmm, every shell has a strange hole. Curious, very curious..."
"Are you ready?" Amber asked.
"Oh, yes!" Zacharias nodded. "Just let me pack a few supplies..." He started taking things from a nearby table. "Oh, let's see. I may need this, always good to have this, probably won't need this, but you never know... Oh, this will be most handy. Okay, I'm ready!"
"Let's go!" Amber smiled.
The continued their search across the water.
"Nothing!" Amber groaned. "We've looked everywhere, and nothing!"
"We haven't looked everywhere yet." Zacharias said, as he looked through his spyglass.
"Really?" Amber asked. "Where haven't we looked?"
"Wherever they are, of course." Zacharias replied.
"My brain hurts." Minimus groaned.
"Great globs, I see something!" Zacharias pointed.
"Do you see our mom?" Sofia asked.
"No, but I think I see real, live Sealians!" Zacharias smiled. "Oh, let's not get too excited now. They could be dolphins, or a pod of whales... or they could be Sealians! We must get closer!"
As the creatures rode a wave, Zacharias got a closer look.
"Shiny coat, flipped tail, watery whiskers..." Zacharias noted. "Sealian humanis! They are Sealians!"
"Wow!" Sofia gasped.
Amazing!" Madeline added.
"Have you ever seen such fascinating creatures?" Zacharias asked. "Where's my notebook, my sketchpad?"
"Professor!" Amber called, as Zacharias stumbled.
"Steady there, fella!" Saffron joked.
"Look at that!" Sofia pointed, as a Sealian played in the water.
"Even more fascinating than I thought they were two seconds ago!" Zacharias tried to draw with a fork, but switched it for a quill, drawing a Sealian's face.
The Sealians realised they were being watched, and swam away.
"We have to follow them!" Madeline urged. "They might lead us to mom!"
"Yes, please!" Zacharias nodded.
"No, thank you!" Minimus frowned.
"But they also might put us under that same spell!" Amber pointed out.
"We have to be willing to take that chance if we want to save mom!" Sofia declared.
Another storm rolled in.
"Oh no, the Stormy Triangle!" Madeline gasped.
"Aw, not again!" Minimus groaned.
"Aw, crumbs!" Saffron remarked.
"Ohh, this rain is too much!" Amber groaned.
"Just hang on tight!" Sofia urged.
"The rain's ruining my Sealian sketch!" Zacharias yelped. "Or, is it making them look even more fascinating?
"Maybe if we go in the same direction as the wind, we can fly out of the storm!" Madeline suggested.
"Okay!" Amber nodded.
As they tried to navigate the storm, another, familiar-looking ship moved toward them, the sail in their way.
"Whoa, Minimus!" Sofia urged.
Both Minimus and Saffron crashed into the sail, which tore, causing them to fall onto the deck below.
"Is everyone alright?" Zacharias asked, as he boarded the other ship.
"Yes." Amber groaned.
"Uh-huh." Madeline nodded.
"I guess so." Sofia declared.
"Just peachy." Saffron smiled.
"Not at all." Minimus frowned.
As they got to their feet, the girls saw a figure approach. It was Miranda.
She frowned. "What on Earth..."Girls?!" what are you doing here?"
"Mom!" Sofia and Madeline cheered, as they rushed over.
"Mother!" Amber cried, as they hugged her. "We're so glad we found you. We thought that Sealian was going to take you away forever!"
"Sealian?" Miranda chuckled. "What are you talking about?"
"I saw it with my telescope!" Amber declared. "A Sealian lured you onto this boat!"
"Sofia and I saw it too." Madeline added.
"And then we heard this strange sound." Sofia continued. "So we know it put you under a spell!"
"Are you okay?" Amber snapped her fingers in front of Miranda's face. "Do you know where you are?"
"Amber, I am not under a spell." Miranda told her.
"That's probably the spell making her say that." Amber frowned.
"Who are you?" Miranda asked Zacharias.
"Professor Zacharias Fleeber at your service, milady." Zacharias bowed. "Is it true? Have you recently had a close encounter with a Sealian?"
"I don't know what you're talking about!" Miranda laughed.
"There it is!" Madeline pointed, as the figure they saw at the harbour approached.
"The Sealian!" Sofia gasped.
"Stay back!" Amber yelled.
Zacharias looked through his spyglass at the figure. seeing a moustache.
"Relax everyone." He smiled. "this is no Sealian."
"Yes, girls." Miranda nodded. "The professor is right. Take a good look."
"Wait, you don't have shiny seal skin." Madeline noted.
"Or flippers." Sofia noted.
"Or whiskers." Amber mused.
"Nope." The man nodded. "Just a regular old moustache and rain slicker, I'm afraid."
"Captain Macintosh has been giving me sailing lessons, so I can surprise your father, and take him sailing for his birthday." Miranda explained.
"Sailing lessons?" Amber gaped.
"So... nothing we saw through the telescope turned out to be what we thought it was?" Madeline asked.
"It's like I was telling you before." Miranda declared. "When you spy on things from afar, they can look different from what they really are."
"Your majesty, I thought we'd wait until the storm passed to sail home, but with our sail torn, I'm afraid we're not going anywhere." Captain Macintosh announced.
"Maybe our horses can pull us?" Sofia suggested.
"The ship's too heavy for that." Captain Macintosh shook his head.
"Oh, if I had just listened to you mom, we wouldn't be stuck out here!" Amber groaned.
"I let my imagination run wild too." Sofia sighed.
"Me too." Madeline nodded.
"If we ever get home, I promise I will never spy again." Amber pledged.
"I won't either." Sofia smiled.
"Never ever." Madeline nodded.
They suddenly heard a strange noise.
"What was that?" Sofia asked.
"Do we have to find out?" Minimus cringed.
They looked over the ship's edge, and saw Sealians approaching.
"Sealians!" Zacharias gasped.
The Sealians suddenly leapt onboard. One had a large, whiskery moustache.
"Oh, my!" Miranda yelped. "Stay back, girls!"
"I don't think they'll harm us." Zacharias smiled.
"We can't be sure..." Captain Macintosh frowned.
"What do you want from us?" Madeline asked.
"Hi, everyone!" The moustache Sealian declared. "How are you all doing?"
"How are we all doing?" Amber frowned.
"Don't be scared of us." The smaller Sealian smiled. "We're very friendly."
"Sorry for jumping on your ship uninvited, but we were hoping you could help us get home?" The moustache Sealian asked.
"Help you?" Sofia frowned. "How?"
"Okay, so this is the situation: We were out surfing this morning, and this big wave crashed on us!" The moustache Sealian declared, as they mimed falling.
"Knocked our cokohorns right out of our hands." The smaller Sealian added.
"Cocohorns?" Madeline asked.
"We Sealians use these special coconut shells, with holes in the top, as horns." The moustache Sealian noted. "Toot!"
"And without your horns, you couldn't put people under a spell!" Amber declared.
"Nah!" The moustache Sealian smirked. "That's just a rumor. We don't put people under spells!"
"We use the horns to help each other find our way out of the storms in the Stormy Triangle." The smaller Sealian revealed.
"Like 'Hello, we're lost in the storm! Toot-toot-toot'!" The moustache Sealian acted.
"And then I'd be like 'swim this way. Toot-toot-toot'!" The smaller Sealian added.
"But with no horns, no way home." The moustache Sealian sighed. "We've been swimming around for a while now. We're getting a bit worried."
Sofia glanced at Zacharias' bag.
"Wait a minute." She realised. "Did you say your cocohorns have holes?"
"Mm-hmm." The smaller Sealian nodded. "Like a regular horn."
"I get it." Madeline nodded. "Professor, on the beach. You put some cocount shells in your bag, remember?"
"I did?" Zacharias mused. "Oh, yes! So I did!" He took out two shells and gave them to the Sealians. "There you are."
"We found these on that island earlier." Sofia declared. "Are these cocohorns?"
"Yes, they are!" The smaller Sealian smiled.
The two Sealians went to the ship's edge, and prepared to leave.
"Wait!" Madeline urged. "Maybe you could help us get home too?"
"How?" The smaller Sealian asked.
"You use your horns to get out of the rain, and we'll follow you." Sofia declared.
"Yeah, we'd love to help." The smaller Sealian smiled.
"Good idea, girls." Amber beamed.
"But first, we're going to need to repair that sail." Captain Macintosh declared.
"Well, you're looking at a former shoemaker." Miranda grinned. "I think I can patch up a sail..." She picked up a white sheet. "With this!"
Before long, the new sail was in place.
"Looks good, your majesty!" Captain Macintosh announced.
"Nice work, mother." Amber hugged Miranda.
Zacharias unhooked his boat from Miranda's.
"Alrighty everyone, just follow the sounds of our horns." The moustache Sealian declared. "We'll get you out of here."
The Sealians dived back into the water, and blew their horns.
"Nothing's happening." Amber frowned. "I don't hear anything."
Another horn blared out.
"The other Sealians are answering!" Sofia smiled.
"Thank goodness." Madeline grinned.
"Fascinating." Zacharias started writing. "Outrageously fascinating!"
"That way!" The moustache Sealian called, as they leapt out of the ocean.
They blew their horns again, and were answered once more.
"Hang on!" The smaller Sealian declared. "We're almost out of the storm!"
"Best news I've heard all day!" Minimus smiled.
The two boats followed the Sealians out of the storm. The Sealians led them to a small island, with more Sealians. They blew their horns to announce themselves.
"Oh, there they are!" Zacharias peered through his spyglass. "Should I take notes, or should I observe? Or should I observe, then take notes?"
"Dad!" The moustache Sealian called, as they reached the beach.
"Boys!" A bearded Sealian adult rushed to meet them.
"Are we glad to see you!" The smaller Sealian smiled.
"I was so worried." The father declared. "We were looking for you all day!"
The others walked over.
"Who are they?" The father asked.
"They helped us get home." The moustache Sealian smiled.
"Yes, they did!" Zacharias nodded. "I mean, we did! And if it's alright sir, I'd like to study your ways, so I can tell the world what you're really like!"
"These guys had some funny ideas about us, dad." The smaller Sealian smirked.
"Yeah, like we put people under spells with our cocohorns!" The moustache Sealian grinned.
"Where did they ever get that idea?" The father asked.
"They were just guessing." Sofia admitted.
"Since no-one ever came to the Stormy Triangle to see you Sealians with their own eyes." Amber added.
"Well, we don't want people thinking strange things about us." The father noted. "Perhaps you should stay with us for a while, and tell our story."
"Thank you!" Zacharias beamed. "My dream has come true! Now don't worry, I won't get in your way at all... Whoa!" He slipped on some cocohorns, and was caught by the father. "Good catch." He started writing. "Quick reflexes. Fascinating!"
"Dad will be home soon." Amber realised. "And we still have to sail through the Stormy Triangle. We'd better get going."
The Sealian boys blew their horns.
"Wait a minute... dad!" Madeline gasped. "Sofia and I still need presents for his birthday!" She rushed over to them. "Um, would it be okay if we took a couple of cocohorns? I know he'd love them!"
"Good thinking, Maddie." Sofia smiled.
The moustache Sealian picked two cocohorns up.
"Here." He gave them to Sofia and Madeline. "Something to remember us by."
"Thanks!" Sofia and Madeline grinned.
Shortly after, the royals were boarding Miranda's ship.
"Goodbye, girls!" Zacharias waved.
"Thanks for your help!" The moustache Sealian smiled.
"Safe travels!" The father called.
"Goodbye!" Amber waved.
"Good luck with your research, Professor!" Madeline called.
"We'll be sure to read your book!" Sofia added.
The Sealians pushed the boat back out to sea.
"Coming about!" Miranda called, as they turned in Enchancia's direction.
"Just so you know girls, you owe me a nice, relaxing day at the beach." Minimus declared.
"And a little kettle corn wouldn't hurt neither." Saffron added.
Later, back in Enchancia, friend and family alike were celebrating Roland's birthday.
"Well, I've got my pudding, I'm going on a sailing trip with my Queen... what more could a man want on his birthday?" Roland asked.
"We're hoping something like these." Madeline smiled, as she and Sofia held up the cocohorns.
"They're Sealian horns." Sofia declared.
"Are they now?" Roland held them. "Fantastic! I don't have anything like them!" He blew them both in succession.
"You know what? That'll go real well with my gift." James entered, carrying a set of bagpipes. "I was going to give you a private bagpipe concert, but we can make it a duet."
James started playing. The noise was very familiar to the girls.
"Do you know what that sounds like?" Amber gasped.
"Sure do." Madeline nodded.
"What we thought was the Sealian's song this morning." Sofia noted.
"Boy, were we wrong." Amber sighed.
James and Roland marched around the room, playing their instruments. The girls watched with glee.
