THE STORY OF GINNI AND THREE ON A QUEST: PART ONE, Continued:

That day Ginni and Shadow had searched diligently for a pet bed for Shadow, one with a rim to keep any draft from making him cold. At last they found one, and the pet supply company would deliver the bed the next day. And they had caught their bus back from the stores. The afternoon winter sky was turning darker, evening was approaching. Ginni and Shadow's bus reached the stop near the Doll Museum.

Ginni thought someone was watching her. Then she heard, "Ma'am! Ma'am!"

From among bus ridership along the street a person appeared. "May I have a moment of your time?"

Ginni was quite startled to be called "Ma'am" by anyone.

"Dog, blond hair. We - Porter, and Rudyard and Sylvia - have pilgrimaged far on this continent. Our recent lead directs us to you."

Ginni had no idea what - Porter, had he said? - could mean.

Another of their group stepped forward. "I am Sylvia. Our source said, you were seen - with a sled."
