This time Halaaniani called out, "Let us ride."
Then Laieikawai quickly lay down on the board and with Halaaniani's help
rode toward the shore.
Now, when Laieikawai was deep under the wave, the crest broke finely;
Laieikawai glanced about to see how things were; Halaaniani was not with
her. Laieikawai looked again; Halaaniani with great dexterity was
resting on the very tip of the wave. That was when Laieikawai began to
give way to Halaaniani.
Waka saw them returning from surf riding and supposed Laieikawai's
companion was Kekalukaluokewa.
Malio, the sister of Halaaniani, as is seen in the story of her life,
can do many marvelous things, and in Chapters XXII and XXIII you will
see what great deeds she had power to perform.
CHAPTER XXII
While Laieikawai was surfing ashore with Halaaniani, Waka's
supernatural gift was overshadowed by Malio's superior skill, and she
did not see what was being done to her grandchild.
Just as Laieikawai came to land, Waka sent the birds in the mist, and
when the mist passed off only the surf boards remained; Laieikawai was
with Halaaniani in her house up at Paliuli.
