I have had so much fun hanging out 3 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:14,080 Speaker 1: with you on Instagram Live, so make sure you don't 4 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:16,960 Speaker 1: miss out on any of those lives on the Kid's 5 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: Short Stories Instagram. Well, today's story is part two of 6 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: Weston's Crazy Skateboard Monster Adventure. Have you guys made any 7 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,320 Speaker 1: thoughts or clues of do why that monster didn't eat 8 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:35,320 Speaker 1: Western skateboard? Maybe he's afraid of something. Well, let's go 9 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: all right, everybody, calm down. Calm down, said Weston. You see, 10 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: all of his friends were in a complete panic realizing 11 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: that there is a real skateboard monster living in their neighborhood. 12 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: That's easy for you to say, Weston, said one of 13 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: his friends. Your skateboard didn't get eaten mine? Did? I know? 14 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: And I'm so sorry that happened to you, said Weston. 15 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: But I think we can use this video and if 16 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,040 Speaker 1: we work together, I think we can maybe get all 17 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: your skateboards back. Thanks Western. Well, yeah, I guess we 18 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: do gotta work together, said one of his friends. All right, 19 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 1: let's open that video back up. All of them huddled 20 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: around the screen as they looked at the video of 21 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 1: this real skateboard monster that had entered into Weston's open garage. 22 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 1: Can we zoom man on it? Yeah, let me try, 23 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: said Weston. He pinched the screen to make it zoom 24 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: in and moved it closer to the skateboard monster. All right, wait, 25 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: look at that right there when it came in. It 26 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: looks like it saw something and got really scared. What 27 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: was it looking at? All of his friends ran over 28 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: to the garage. They looked around to see what that 29 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: monster might have seen to get scared off. The only 30 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 1: thing I see or over there is the screwdriver. Wait, 31 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:16,399 Speaker 1: you don't think it's afraid of the screwdriver, do you? Oh? Yeah? 32 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 1: Remember Weston had left his screwdriver right on the floor 33 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: because he had to go in to eat dinner. Right, yeah, 34 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: I bet that monster is afraid of screwdrivers. That makes 35 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: a lot of sense. If a skateboard monster is real, 36 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: he's totally gonna be afraid of screwdrivers. Weston picked up 37 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: the screwdriver and bravely said, guys, we need more screwdrivers. 38 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: Everybody go home and get a screwdriver. I don't know 39 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: what we're gonna use it for or how, but it's 40 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: definitely a piece of solving this mystery. All of Weston's 41 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: friends took off, running back for their homes. They had 42 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 1: to get more screwdrivers. Weston did some more studying of 43 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 1: the film and realized that that giant skateboard monster was 44 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: actually like a whole bunch of skateboards, like tied on 45 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: together somehow. I don't think he's eating them. I think 46 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: he's like building himself into a bigger and bigger skateboard 47 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: using all of our boards. Weston was starting to come 48 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: up with a plan in his mind, and he knew 49 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: that he was going to need to use his board 50 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: because it was the last board in the neighborhood. But 51 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: he was going to have to use his board as 52 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: monster bait. The rain had finally stopped, but it was 53 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: getting darker. As his friends arrived back with all the screwdrivers, 54 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: Weston told them the plan. All right, guys, I'm gonna 55 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: put my skateboard in the middle of my front yard. 56 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: We have to hide behind all the bushes and trees, 57 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: and we have to take cover because whenever that monster 58 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: comes out and tries to steal my skateboard, we have 59 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: to try and catch that monster with our screwdrivers, because 60 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: I think all of your skateboards are somehow attached to 61 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: that one monster, and if we can catch him, then maybe, 62 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: just maybe you can get your boards back. Weston and 63 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: his friends all made a circle together and putting their 64 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: arms around each other's shoulders. They all realize how big 65 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: of a moment this was going to be. They were 66 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 1: gonna take on the skateboard monster. All right, positions, everyone, 67 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: get in your spots, go, said Weston as he laid 68 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,799 Speaker 1: his skateboard, his sacrificial skateboard monster bait, in the middle 69 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 1: of his front yard. He took a deep sigh of 70 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: a mix of many emotions, some excited and some scared 71 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: if that monster really does come and get away with 72 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 1: his skateboard. Have you ever felt like a mix of 73 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: emotions where you feel like a lot of different things 74 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 1: at one time. Yeah, me too, And that's exactly what 75 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: Weston is feeling right now. But he's gonna choose to 76 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: be brave. One, two, three, All right. He put his 77 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 1: skateboard down and got into his position. All of the 78 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: friends were completely surrounding his front yard as it was 79 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: growing darker and darker. The sun was setting, and it 80 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: was a perfect time to catch a skateboard monster. One 81 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 1: of the most important parts of Weston's plan was his 82 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: net shooter in his back pocket. He had to be 83 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: ready to catch that crazy skateboard monster. Him and his 84 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: friends were waiting for what seemed like an eternity, but 85 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 1: finally something happened. Did you guys hear that, said Johnny, 86 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: whispering to one of the other friends. Shhh, be quiet. 87 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 1: M m. That was the sound of the skateboard monster 88 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: getting closer and closer. Everyone gear ready, don't move, whispered 89 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: Weston as he was waving hand signals to everyone in 90 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: the different positions around the front yard. And just then 91 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: they saw it. The skateboard monster had grown to an 92 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: unbelievable size, almost as big as them. It had accumulated 93 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,239 Speaker 1: so many skateboards from so many places and was now 94 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: a ginormous creature. As Weston waited for the right moment, 95 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: the skateboard monster was approaching his skateboard bait. Right, three, two, one, go, 96 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: shouted Weston. All of the friends came charging out, holding 97 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: their screwdivers out in front of them, almost like a sword. 98 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: The skateboard monster started to spin in tear as he 99 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 1: looked for a way to escape, but he was completely surrounded. 100 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,799 Speaker 1: Weston pulled his net shooter out of his back pocket 101 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: aimed it directly at the monster. Shoosh, we got it, 102 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: shouted Weston, and everybody, using their screwdrivers, were able to 103 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: pry off their skateboard from the monster. One by one, 104 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: their skateboards popped off, and the monster got smaller and 105 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: smaller and smaller, until pretty soon he vanished. Yes, we 106 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: got all our boards back, Weston. You're amazing, shouted one 107 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: of his friends. I couldn't have done it without you, guys. 108 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: I'm so glad that you all got your skateboards back, 109 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: said Weston. Wow, what an unbelievable adventure. I've never heard 110 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: of a skateboard monster before, but now I know exactly 111 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: what we need to do in case he starts stealing 112 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: our skateboards. Well, my friends, that may be the end 113 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: of the story, but I am sure it's just the 114 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: beginning of Weston and his friends great skateboard adventures.
