My Story of the Matariki Stars

One day on a dark stormy night there were 7 sisters in one family. The 7 sisters walked along a path. Mete was the guard of the path. He saw the ladies walking on the path. He pulled the eyes out of all the 7 sisters. So they became the stars of Matariki. There were two other stars that people could not see. Their names are Waiti and Waita. They were the Mum and Dad. A little star appeared in the sky, it was a wishing star. So if they see the wishing star, they would make a wish. So that is how the Matariki stars got up in the sky.
