Sioni

“But-but,” Sioni stuttered.
“They did. My father had an eye on them, and since he knew they were there, he decided not to have them hide again. Instead, he put tabs on their whereabouts. We’re making a plan to capture them,” I explained.
“I didn’t know!”
“Of course you didn’t.”
“Twelve Months…What do you mean by that?” Sioni said, puzzled.
“The Twelve Months, of course- January, November, December, February, April, March, May, June, July, August, September and October. They are siblings. They used to live here,” I said.
“They’re people?” Sioni’s face was astounded.
“Yes,” I sighed. “Now let’s get out of here before those creeps change their minds.”
“Agreed,” Sioni said.

I gently put her on the saddle, and swung up after her.
“Go, Snowstar, back to the castle! Hang on to me, Sioni,” I warned.

Snowstar jerked forward. She took a great leap, and broke into a whirlwind gallop.

I had found her!
