Speaker 1: they sent me an awesome story. Are you guys ready

10
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: for today's adventure? Me too, Let's go. It was a

11
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 1: beautiful day and Weston and his friends were at the

12
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: skate park. He loved to go skateboarding or scootering or

13
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: rollerblading with his friends all the time, but today the

14
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: skateboard day. Have you ever been on a skateboard before?

15
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: Holy smokes, there can be kind of hard to stand on.

16
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: I'm I'm not very good at it. I don't have

17
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: the right balance. But oh, you're pretty good at it?

18
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 1: Oh wow? Well, Weston was really good at it, and

19
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 1: so we're all of his friends. Hey, Weston, check this out.

20
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 1: One of his friends launched off of a jump and

21
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: did an awesome move. Dude, that was so cool. Shouted Weston.

22
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 1: All right, mind turn, guys, look out. Weston dropped in

23
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: on the halfpipe and soared through the air with a

24
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: sick move. Weston, that was insane, shouted his friends. Drip, drip, drip.

25
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: Oh no, it's starting the rain, all right, guys, Well, uh,

26
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: maybe we can hang out tomorrow. I'll see you bye,

27
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: west In, shouted his friends. It was starting to rain

28
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: and it was time to go home. It's not fun

29
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 1: to skateboard in the rain, and it can be extra

30
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: super slippery, so that's also not a good part. As

31
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: he was riding home, he noticed that his front trucks

32
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:16,119
Speaker 1: were just way too loose. The trucks. That's the part

33
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: where the wheels fit on. The trucks are the middle

34
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: part that attached to the bottom of the skateboard, and

35
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: the wheels attach to the trucks. It's kind of like

36
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 1: the axle. Holy smokes, I got a tight knees when

37
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: I get home, said Weston as he pulled in on

38
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: his driveway and zoomed into his garage. He parked his

39
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 1: skateboard in a nice open spot. He made it just

40
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: in time because the rain was now pouring. Sh can

41
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: you make the sound of rain. Yeah, well it was

42
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 1: pouring rain and he just made it back in time

43
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: to his garage. Who that was a close one, said Weston.

44
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: He grabbed some screwdrivers and started working on those trucks

45
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: on the bottom of a skateboard. Weston, is that you,

46
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: Weston shouted his mom. Yeah, I'm in the garage. Oh. Perfect, Well,

47
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: just come inside and wash up because it's time to eat.

48
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: Can I finish making the adjustments on my trucks on

49
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 1: the skateboard? No, Weston, I need you to come in

50
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: right now, so just leave that there, lead the screwdriver

51
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: right there, and you can finish it after we eat.

52
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: Come on, said his mom. Weston stood up and dropped

53
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 1: his screwdriver right next to the skateboard. As he came inside.

54
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: Oh he smelled a very delicious What is that is

55
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: that lasagna? Mom? Yes it is. Come on, Weston loved lasagna.

56
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: Have you ever had lasagna before? Oh? It's so good.

57
00:03:55,440 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: It's got like pasta sauce and cheese and the pasta

58
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: noodle part, and oh it's so good. Weston washed his

59
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: hands and sat at the table and his family ate

60
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: dinner together. Dinner was so good he almost forgot about

61
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 1: a skateboard still sitting in the garage, and then he

62
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 1: heard his walkie s Weston, are you there? Can I

63
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: please be excused? I ate all my dinner and I

64
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: think my friends are needing my help or something. Yes, Weston,

65
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: just put your dishes in the sink and then clean

66
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: up and then you can go. Okay, thank you so much.

67
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: Weston dropped all of his dishes in the sink and

68
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: washed them off, and then raced over to where his

69
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: walkie talkie was in the other room. Hey, guys, yeah,

70
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 1: I'm here. What's up, dude? You won't believe this. I

71
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: think there's some kind of skateboard monster, like all over

72
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: the neighborhood. All of our skateboards are missing there or what.

73
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,359
Speaker 1: He jumped off the couch and raced over to the garage.

74
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: He had to check and make sure that his skateboard

75
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: was there. And yeah, west and yours has probably gone too,

76
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: sh as Weston burst into the garage. Wait, no, my

77
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: skateboard is right there. Guys. Wait what are you talking about?

78
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: Sh what that's not fair, Weston. All of our skateboards,

79
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 1: every single one of ours, has disappeared, and Johnny is

80
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: convinced that there's some kind of skateboard monster eating them all.

81
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: Sh Yeah, Weston, I totally I swear I saw a creature.

82
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: It looked like a skateboard and it was alive, and

83
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: it ate my skateboard, said Johnny. Sh Well, you have

84
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: to understand that Johnny was He was known to tell

85
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 1: some crazy, wild stories, and so what kind of makes

86
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 1: sense that some of the friends might not believe him.

87
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 1: But Weston Weston really did like Johnny, So maybe, just

88
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: maybe Johnny was telling the truth. Okay, Johnny, that is

89
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 1: a pretty crazy story. But I do have a camera

90
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: out in front of my garage. Maybe it picked up something.

91
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 1: I'll let you guys know what I find over sh

92
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: Weston asked his parents to look at the video feed

93
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 1: for the camera in front of the garage. They grabbed

94
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 1: the monitor and he started scanning through the video. All right, uh,

95
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 1: this probably happened in the last thirty minutes since we

96
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: were eating dinner. All right, so I'll start there. He

97
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 1: started watching the video and quickly looking through it, and

98
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, holy smokes, Johnny was right.

99
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: Weston ran back over to his walkie talkie. Guys, come in,

100
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 1: this is Weston. I have something you need to see

101
00:06:54,200 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: for yourself. Come to my house right away, over sh

102
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: It only took a few minutes before all of his

103
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 1: friends showed up on Weston's front yard. Weston couldn't wait

104
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: to show them what he had found. Guys, look at this.

105
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: Weston opened up the video and pressed play. Holy smokes, guys,

106
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: I wish you could see the video that Weston and

107
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: his friends are looking at right now. But there is

108
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: some kind of real skateboard monster that rode up Weston's driveway.

109
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: It looked inside at the skateboard. It's like it was

110
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 1: coming to eat Western's skateboard. It saw something and got

111
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 1: scared and ran away. But then I think it went

112
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: over to Johnny's house and then it ate Johnny's skateboard.

113
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: All of Weston's friends couldn't believe their eyes. What in

114
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: the world was that, they all said, and turned to Weston,

115
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 1: And why didn't it eat yours? I don't know, guys,

116
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: but I'm pretty sure we just stumbled into some kind

117
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 1: of crazy mystery. We need to work together to solve

118
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: this one. Holy smokes. Weston and his friends have just

119
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: started some kind of crazy skateboarding monster adventure. We'll have

120
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,400
