00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 1: Welcome to Kids Short Stories. Today's story is the Adventure

2
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:26,600
Speaker 1: of Leppie Part two. Benny was anxiously awaiting the arrival

3
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 1: of his new spy partner. You see, Benny had been

4
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:33,480
Speaker 1: a spy kid for two years and been a part

5
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 1: of many exciting missions. But his agency said it was

6
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: time for him to move on to bigger and better,

7
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: more important spy adventures. But in order to do that,

8
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 1: he needed a spy partner. And so they said that

9
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: they were sending a super secret get go from across

10
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: the world whose name was Leppie. Benny had never worked

11
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:06,040
Speaker 1: with the gecko before. He's a little nervous of of

12
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,320
Speaker 1: working with the new spy partner, but he knew it

13
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: was very important. That Tuesday morning, as he was waiting

14
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: for let Me to arrive, he had to keep a

15
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: close eye out the window to make sure there weren't

16
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: any bad guys around. As the minutes ticked by, he

17
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: saw a black fan drive up up and down his street.

18
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, Benny said, those look like bad guys.

19
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: And so Benny ran upstairs and got all his spike gear,

20
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: his binoculars, his black bag, and spy goggles. And so

21
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: when he came downstairs and looked out the window very

22
00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: carefully with his binoculars. He could see those are bad guys.

23
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: Oh boy, what do we do? Benny had to remember

24
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,839
Speaker 1: all this spy training which said to make sure all

25
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: the doors and windows were locked. What he locked everything up?

26
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: All right? Check what's the next? As he remembered, the

27
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:28,359
Speaker 1: next thing was to make sure that all the important

28
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: things were safe, and so he got everything locked up.

29
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:39,639
Speaker 1: That was important. Next he needed to keep an eye

30
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: on the bad guys, and so as he made a

31
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: pillow fort on his couch with pillows and blankets, he

32
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: peered out with using his binoculars to keep an eye

33
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: on the bad guys. You see, Benny knew that Leppie

34
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: was going to be arriving that morning, and so he

35
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 1: had to make sure that he kept Leppie safe because

36
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 1: being a gecko, Leppie was not as fast as a person,

37
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: so it was Benny's job to keep him safe. Ten

38
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: minutes passed and still no Leppie. Benny was starting to

39
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: get a little worried. I hope he's okay. Remember, Leppie

40
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,119
Speaker 1: had to go all the way across the world from

41
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia Benny didn't know exactly where Saudi Arabia was,

42
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: but he knew it was far away. We know from

43
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: part one that Leppie had to go all the way

44
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: across the desert, get on a boat all the way

45
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: across the ocean, and to get all the way to

46
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: Benny's neighborhood. And it was a very long trip. But

47
00:03:54,160 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: Leppie was just down the street. And remember, Leppie had

48
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 1: to get inside the box on Benny's front porch. And

49
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 1: so as Benny waited inside his house keeping it a

50
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 1: sharp eye on the bad guys, little did he know

51
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: that Leppie was just about to crawl into the box

52
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: on Benny's front porch. Benny had a special device that

53
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 1: would let him know when Leppie was there. It would

54
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: start to beep bee bee bee bee bee if Leppie

55
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: was there, And so he anxiously held that device waiting

56
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: for it to sound the alarm. When all of a

57
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: sudden he heard it b b b bee bee bee

58
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: bee bee bee bee beep. That means Leppie is there.

59
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: All right, what do we do? What do we do?

60
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 1: He looked out the window and the bad guys were

61
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: still sitting there in the black van. All right, So

62
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,359
Speaker 1: he looked out the front window. He didn't see Leppie anywhere.

63
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 1: He didn't see him on the front yard or on

64
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 1: the porch. Where in the world could he be. Oh wait,

65
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: there's a box on the front porch. Oh that looks

66
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 1: like a package from Amazon or somewhere. I wonder, Oh,

67
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: I wonder if Leppie is hiding in that box. Do

68
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 1: you think he is? Okay? All right? So Benny carefully

69
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: opened up the front door and quick grabbed the box

70
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: and brought it inside to the bag. I see, I

71
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: don't know, And so many carefully closed the door and

72
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: locked it behind him. Then Benny took the box and

73
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 1: opened it up, and sure enough, inside was his brand

74
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: new spy partner, Leppi, the Lepper Gecko. The end
