"Fourth Sister, only if I use Spiritual Power can I activate it!" Seventh-Child said.
Then Third Child and Fifth Child also scrambled onto Yi Tian, fighting to play with the gourd.
"Childish!"
Second Child looked up at her unruly younger sisters and snorted with pride.
"Second Child, keep an eye on the territory this afternoon. The beasts are coming. Kill the monsters, and we won't have to worry about the heat." Yi Tian freed a hand to pat Second Child's little pigtails.
"Alrighty, beat the beasts and no more hot days." Fifth Child, who hated heat the most, clapped her hands.
The other Kiddos were all excited too.
These days have been so boring.
It was so hot that they couldn't even help Dad with the chores!
Thank goodness for the Ice Storage, otherwise who knows how we'd survive this summer.
Yi Tian looked again at the gourd vine on the rack.
The Calabash Sisters have been born, will the vine still bear gourds?
