Blueberries
Disclaimer: I only own Thayet's horse. The rest…you know.
Author's note: I was delayed by two days by the fact that the computer was already occupied all the time. Thanks to everyone who's reviewed. If you haven't, do. I'd really appreciate it. Also, did you know that Microsoft word does not like Thayet, but it like the word "Thayer"?
Queen Thayet ran up to her husband. "Jon, have you seen Kally or Roald? I haven't heard from them since they asked to go play three hours ago."
"Which way did they go?" he asked, knowing what trouble children, his especially, could get into in three hours.
"North, I think." They both became silent. The Royal Forest was the only thing in the north. Jonathan and Thayet took off at a sprint. Who knew how many dangers there were in the forest for a prince and a princess?
Reaching the stables, they quickly saddled Darkmoon and Mistfoot, Thayet's horse, and rode out into the Royal Forest.
They found their children's tracks track in the spring mud and cantered into the forest, following the long and winding trail.
An hour later, Jonathan and Thayet reached a glade in the wood with blueberry bushes in it. They couldn't ride the horses through. Dismounting, the royal couple heard a shout.
"C'mon Kally! Eat ten more blueberries, and I'll give you a copper noble!"
"No way, Roald! I've already eaten seventy-billion! How about you?"
Jonathan and Thayet shared a look. Grabbing their swords, they snuck up on the shouting blueberry bush, then attacked.
Jonathan had his sword to Kally's throat and Thayet had her's to Roald's. Their children shrieked. "What have you been doing for the last four hours?" asked Thayet, smiling slightly.
"Eating blueberries," replied Roald instantly. I was true, their fronts were covered in purple stains.
"So, Kally," said her father, "ten more blueberries for a gold noble?"
