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.
