1
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 1: Hey, friends, it's mister Jim and welcome back to kid

2
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,960
Speaker 1: Short Stories. I have had so much fun hanging out

3
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 1: with you on Instagram Live, so make sure you don't

4
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: miss out on any of those lives on the Kids

5
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:21,599
Speaker 1: Short Stories Instagram. Well, today's story is part two of

6
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 1: Weston's Crazy Skateboard Monster Adventure. Have you guys made any

7
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: thoughts or clues of do why that monster didn't eat

8
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: Western skateboard? Maybe he's afraid of something. Well, let's go

9
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: all right, everybody, calm down. Calm down, said Weston. You see,

10
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 1: all of his friends were in a complete panic realizing

11
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: that there is a real skateboard monster living in their neighborhood.

12
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: That's easy for you to say, Weston, said one of

13
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: his friends. Your skateboard didn't get eaten mine? Did? I know?

14
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: And I'm so sorry that happened to you, said Weston.

15
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 1: But I think we can use this video and if

16
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,960
Speaker 1: we work together, I think we can maybe get all

17
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: your skateboards back. Thanks Western. Well, yeah, I guess we

18
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 1: do gotta work together, said one of his friends. All right,

19
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: let's open that video back up. All of them huddled

20
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 1: around the screen as they looked at the video of

21
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: this real skateboard monster that had entered into Weston's open garage.

22
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: Can we zoom man on it? Yeah, let me try,

23
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,199
Speaker 1: said Weston. He pinched the screen to make it zoom

24
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: in and moved it closer to the skateboard monster. All right, wait,

25
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: look at that right there when it came in. It

26
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: looks like it saw something and got really scared. What

27
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: was it looking at? All of his friends ran over

28
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: to the garage. They looked around to see what that

29
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: monster might have seen to get scared off. The only

30
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 1: thing I see or over there is the screwdriver. Wait,

31
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: you don't think it's afraid of the screwdriver, do you? Oh? Yeah?

32
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: Remember Weston had left his screwdriver right on the floor

33
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 1: because he had to go in to eat dinner. Right, yeah,

34
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: I bet that monster is afraid of screwdrivers. That makes

35
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: a lot of sense. If a skateboard monster is real,

36
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 1: he's totally gonna be afraid of screwdrivers. Weston picked up

37
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 1: the screwdriver and bravely said, guys, we need more screwdrivers.

38
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: Everybody go home and get a screwdriver. I don't know

39
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: what we're gonna use it for or how, but it's

40
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: definitely a piece of solving this mystery. All of Weston's

41
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: friends took off, running back for their homes. They had

42
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: to get more screwdrivers. Weston did some more studying of

43
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: the film and realized that that giant skateboard monster was

44
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: actually like a whole bunch of skateboards, like tied on

45
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: together somehow. I don't think he's eating them. I think

46
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: he's like building himself into a bigger and bigger skateboard

47
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: using all of our boards. Weston was starting to come

48
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: up with a plan in his mind, and he knew

49
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: that he was gonna need to use his board because

50
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 1: it was the last board in the neighborhood. But he

51
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: was going to have to use his board as monster bait.

52
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 1: The rain had finally stopped, but it was getting darker.

53
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 1: As his friends arrived back with all the screwdrivers, Weston

54
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,119
Speaker 1: told them the plan. All right, guys, I'm gonna put

55
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 1: my skateboard in the middle of my front yard. We

56
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: have to hide behind all the bushes and trees, and

57
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: we have to take cover because whenever that monster comes

58
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 1: out and tries to steal my skateboard, we have to

59
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: try and catch that monster with our screwdrivers, because I

60
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: think all of your skateboards are somehow attached to that

61
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: one monster, and if we can catch him, then maybe,

62
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: just maybe you can get your boards back. Weston and

63
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 1: his friends all made a circle together and putting their

64
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 1: arms around each other's shoulders. They all realize how big

65
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 1: of a moment this was going to be. They were

66
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: gonna take on the skateboard monster. All right, positions, everyone,

67
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: get in your spots, go, said Weston as he laid

68
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 1: his skateboard, his sacrificial skateboard monster bait, in the middle

69
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: of his front yard. He took a deep sigh of

70
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 1: a mix of many emotions, some excited and some scared

71
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 1: if that monster really does come and get away with

72
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: his skateboard. Have you ever felt like a mix of

73
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: emotions where you feel like a lot of different things

74
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: at one time. Yeah, me too, And that's exactly what

75
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,280
Speaker 1: Weston is feeling right now. But he's gonna choose to

76
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 1: be brave. One, two, three, All right. He put his

77
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: skateboard down and got into his position. All of the

78
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 1: friends were completely surrounding his front yard as it was

79
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: growing darker and darker. The sun was setting, and it

80
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: was a perfect time to catch a skateboard monster. One

81
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 1: of the most important parts of Weston's plan was his

82
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 1: net shooter in his back pocket. He had to be

83
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: ready to catch that crazy skateboard monster. Him and his

84
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: friends were waiting for what seemed like an eternity, but

85
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: finally something happened. Did you guys hear that, said Johnny,

86
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 1: whispering to one of the other friends. Shhh, be quiet,

87
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 1: m That was the sound of the skateboard monster getting

88
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: closer and closer. Everyone caeready, don't move, whispered Weston as

89
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: he was waving hand signals to everyone in the different

90
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: positions around the front yard. And just then they saw it.

91
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 1: The skateboard monster had grown to an unbelievable size, almost

92
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:30,600
Speaker 1: as big as them. It had accumulated so many skateboards

93
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: from so many places and was now a ginormous creature.

94
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: As Weston waited for the right moment, the skateboard monster

95
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: was approaching his skateboard bait. Right, three, two, one, go,

96
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,919
Speaker 1: shouted Weston. All of the friends came charging out, holding

97
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:56,159
Speaker 1: their screwdrivers out in front of them, almost like a sword.

98
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 1: The skateboard monster started to spin in tear as he

99
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 1: looked for a way to escape, but he was completely surrounded.

100
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: Weston pulled his net shooter out of his back pocket

101
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 1: aimed it directly at the monster. Shoh, we got it,

102
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 1: shouted Weston, and everybody, using their screwdrivers, were able to

103
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: pry off their skateboard from the monster. One by one,

104
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: their skateboards popped off, and the monster got smaller and

105
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: smaller and smaller, until pretty soon he vanished. Yes, we

106
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: got all our boards back, Weston. You're amazing, shouted one

107
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: of his friends. I couldn't have done it without you, guys.

108
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: I'm so glad that you all got your skateboards back,

109
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: said Weston. Wow, what an unbelievable adventure. I've never heard

110
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 1: of a skateboard monster before, but now I know exactly

111
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: what we need to do in case he starts stealing

112
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: our skateboards. Well, my friends, that may be the end

113
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: of the story, but I am sure it's just the

114
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: beginning of Weston and his friends great skateboard adventures. The end.

115
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: Great job. You listened all the way to the end,

116
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: and you know what time it is. It's time for
