1 00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:07,640 Speaker 1: Hello friends, it's mister Jim and welcome back to kid 2 00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:11,719 Speaker 1: Short Stories. Today's story comes to us from THEO. Hey THEO, 3 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,200 Speaker 1: he sent me an awesome idea for a story, and 4 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 1: you can't too. Just head over to kidshortstories dot com. 5 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 1: Send me your idea and maybe you'll turn it into 6 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 1: an awesome adventure. Are you guys ready for an incredible 7 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: Minecraft adventure where the server crasses and he has to 8 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: save the day? Me too, Let's go. THEO had just 9 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: gotten home from school. It was time to do his 10 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,519 Speaker 1: chores and his homework, and then once he had all 11 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: of those things done, then he got to play a 12 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: little bit of Minecraft. Do you know what Minecraft is? 13 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: It's a really fun game where you can build a 14 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: world or build houses and caves and tree houses, and 15 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: it's very fun and THEO loved it so much. But 16 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: he had to make sure that all of his schoolwork 17 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:14,320 Speaker 1: and his chores were done before he could play. All right, 18 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: just a few more things and then I'm almost done, 19 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: said THEO. He was working on his math homework. Math 20 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: is really fun and THEO was really good at it. 21 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: All right. Two plus five is seven ten minus four? 22 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,919 Speaker 1: What's ten minus four? Two? O? Six, and then what's 23 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 1: six plus eight? Well, that's hard six plus eight fourteen yeah, fourteen, Yes, 24 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: I'm all done. THEO, before his homework, had already taken 25 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: out the garbage and cleaned up his room and made 26 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: his bed. And now that his homework has done meant 27 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: he got to play thirty minutes of Minecraft. Wooo. He 28 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: raced over and grabbed his controller and turned it on 29 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: and nothing happened. What it's not working today? Oh, come on, 30 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,639 Speaker 1: I guess I gotta reboot it. I hope I don't 31 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: lose my world. He had been building a world for 32 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 1: a very long time. It was amazing, all the different 33 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: houses and buildings and caves, and he pretty much built 34 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: a whole city. It's amazing. Well, he had to reboot 35 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: a system and hopefully that would help it work. As 36 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: he flipped it off, he unplugged it and plugged it 37 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: back in and then turned it on and ow, something 38 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: crazy happened. When he rebooted the system. There was some 39 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: kind of little bit of spark and it sent him 40 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: inside of the game. He's now inside of Minecraft. Done 41 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:06,239 Speaker 1: done down whah. As THEO was sailing through the air, 42 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: he was flying through the clouds and then all of 43 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: a sudden, he crashed into the dirt. Ohhh ow where 44 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: in the what the wait a second, he knew exactly 45 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,119 Speaker 1: where he was. As he looked around, he brushed off 46 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: the dirt. And is this Minecraft? He smokes, This is amazing? 47 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: THEO is that you? Oh? Oh my, who's there? My 48 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: name is Edgar and I am one of the rangers 49 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: here and you must come with me. A ranger. I've 50 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: never heard of those, said THEO. Yes, we only come 51 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: out in emergencies. Our job is to guard the surfers. 52 00:03:55,320 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: Something terrible has happened that might end Minecraft forever. You 53 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 1: must hurry. THEO followed Edgar as they ran through Minecraft. 54 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: This is my world, as THEO was looking around. As 55 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 1: they were running, he built all of this. Oh it 56 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: looks even better in person, said THEO. Look there's there's 57 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 1: my castle, and oh there's the mansion, and there's the 58 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: store and oh wow, this is so cool. THEO couldn't 59 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: believe it. He had spent a really long time building 60 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: this amazing city, and to see it in person it 61 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: was pretty amazing. Edgar, so, like, what's going on with 62 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: the server? Like, what are you talking about? It's gonna crash. Well, 63 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: you see, somehow the zombies have broken through and they 64 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: are trying to attack the server. We must stop them 65 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: or else the game will be done forever. What how 66 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 1: is that even possible? I didn't I think zombies could 67 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 1: do that. Oh there was a special new breed of zombies. 68 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: And I know it all sounds confusing, but it will 69 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: make sense once we get there. Edgar arrived at a 70 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: cave and opened this locked door that THEO had never 71 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: seen before. As they walked in the cave, there it 72 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: was a giant room full of servers. These servers were 73 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: like big computers, and they were the brains behind all 74 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: of Minecraft. The room was full of rangers who were 75 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: looking for special instructions. Attention everyone, I have found THEO 76 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: and he is here to rescue all of Minecraft. We went, all, 77 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: what are you talking about? I'm just a kid. What 78 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: do you mean? I can't I don't know what to do, 79 00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: said THEO. Don't worry, THEO. You built this world and 80 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 1: you know all of its secrets. We are waiting for 81 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: your plan. THEO started to realize that he was serious. 82 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: These rangers were looking up to THEO to save the day. 83 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: How is he gonna do it? How is he going 84 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: to stop these weird zombies from breaking in and crashing 85 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 1: the server? But the one really amazing thing about THEO 86 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 1: is he's incredibly creative and amazing at solving problems. In Minecraft, 87 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: when you're building things, you have to think about a plan. 88 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: You have to to know what you're going to do 89 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: before you do it. That's something that THEO had a 90 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: lot of practice in. All right, well, we could set 91 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: some traps, like I always love setting up the traps 92 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: to catch the zombies and and and then they're not 93 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,479 Speaker 1: able to get into my bases and stuff, said THEO. 94 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: That is a great idea. But how should we set 95 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: the traps around the servers? THEO grabbed some paper and 96 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: some pens and started to draw out all the strategy 97 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: he needed to make traps and secret entrances and doors 98 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: that locked and everything that would stop them from breaking in. 99 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: All right, guys, this is the plan. This is how 100 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: we're going to do it, and I need your help, 101 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: said THEO. He gave instructions to all of the rangers, 102 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: and immediately the rangers got to work. Wouldn't that be 103 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: so cool if you went inside a game like Minecraft 104 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: and had to save the day for real? Wow, THEO 105 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: is so lucky. I wonder what's gonna happen. Pretty soon, 106 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: the rangers had executed all of Theo's plan. They had 107 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: traps set and motes and secret entrances with doors and 108 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: it was amazing. And now they had to lure all 109 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: the zombies and creatures into the traps. This is something 110 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: that THEO was really good at. That was the sound 111 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: of the zombies and creatures. They're getting closer. I hope 112 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: the trap works. THEO was a little nervous inside of 113 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: his mind, but he had to choose to be brave 114 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: for all of the rangers because they they were counting 115 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: on him. And one by one, bloop bloop bloop, each 116 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: of the zombies and creatures and walkers they all dropped 117 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: into the traps. Yes, look, the traps were filling up 118 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: with all the bad guys and THEO had saved the day. 119 00:08:52,400 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: All the rangers were shouting THEO, THEO woo. Minecraft has 120 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: been saved in all of its servers. And just like that, 121 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 1: as THEO blinked, blink, oh wait a second, I'm back 122 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: in my house. Was that for real? As THEO opened 123 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: his eyes and wait, the game was playing, and all 124 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: of his traps that he had built, he was looking 125 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: at them at the screen. THEO had not only built 126 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: some amazing new pieces to his world and Minecraft, but 127 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: he had also saved the game forever. Great job, Theo, 128 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: you save the day and I know this is just 129 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: the beginning of his amazing adventure the end. Great job 130 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: you listened all the way to the end, and you 131 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 1: know what time it is.
