1 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,960 Speaker 1: Hey, friends, it's mister Jim and welcome back to Kid 2 00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: Short Stories. If this is your first time or you're 3 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:11,720 Speaker 1: still newer to our family, I want to encourage you 4 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 1: to try five. That's our challenge, where for five days 5 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 1: in a row, your kids listen to some awesome stories 6 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:25,600 Speaker 1: to use their imagination and watch their creativity come to life. 7 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: You see, we make stories every single day for you, 8 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 1: and you just never know what kind of story you're 9 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: gonna find on any given day. So hang with me 10 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 1: for five days, whether maybe driving in the car or 11 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:44,160 Speaker 1: maybe during lunchtime, and I think you're gonna find something 12 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:49,599 Speaker 1: pretty amazing happens. Well, friends, are you ready for today's adventure? 13 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: Me two, let's go. One day, William was at home. 14 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: It's a Saturday, a beautiful day outside. It was Sonny 15 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: in seventy five. He was playing outside with all his friends, 16 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: having a great time. One thing you need to know 17 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: about William is that he's a member of our spy team. 18 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 1: The kids on our spy team, and they look like 19 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: normal kids and act like normal kids, but are super 20 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: duper special. One special thing about our kids on the 21 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,479 Speaker 1: spy team is even in the middle of their normal life, 22 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: while they're playing or doing things at home, they could 23 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: get a call any second from Headquarters HQ asking for 24 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: their help, and today was that day. William got a 25 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: call on his walkie talkie from HQ. William, we need 26 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: your help. NASA has a huge problem and we need 27 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: you to go to the Moon. Do you accept, William? 28 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: William very eagerly said Roger that I'll be ready. Over 29 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 1: and out sh William raced over to our spy HQ. 30 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: He flew over using his jetpack, which has an important 31 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: part of being a spy. As William arrived at HQ, 32 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: everybody was waiting for him and said, William, I'm so 33 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: glad you got here fast. It's terrible on the Moon. 34 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 1: There's a snow monster, like a real snow monster, and 35 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: he has a terrible plan of covering our entire planet 36 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: in ice. You're the only one that will know how 37 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: to stop him. We need you to get on a missile, 38 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: this shuttle to space to fly as soon as possible 39 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: to the Moon. Are you ready to go? William couldn't 40 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: believe it. He had always dreamed of going to space, 41 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: but he'd never done it before, and so he was 42 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: a little bit nervous. He said, Oh yeah, I'm definitely ready. 43 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: Let's let's go, And so they spent the next hour 44 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: preparing the spaceship and getting William's spacesuit all ready. Because 45 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: he'd never actually been an astronaut before, they had to 46 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: make all this really cool gear for him that would 47 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: help him both breathe, fly, and make sure that he 48 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: didn't bounce all the way off of the Moon. The 49 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: gravity on the Moon is not as strong as it 50 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: is here on Earth, and didn't want him to accidentally 51 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: just fly away, so they had to put on his 52 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: suits some extra gravity that would help him come back 53 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: down to the Moon in case needed to jump and 54 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: run from the snow Monster. As the time was to 55 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: closer closer to the launch, William was starting to feel 56 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: a little bit nervous. You know, even though he was 57 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: five and he'd been trained very well and knew a 58 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: lot about space, Like he knew the planets like Venus 59 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: and Mercury, Mars, Jupiter. Now tune you urin is a bluetooey. 60 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: He was still a little bit nervous because this was 61 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: the first time that he was going to space. Two 62 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: minutes until takeoff, he strapped on his helmet, buckled all 63 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 1: of his seat belts and only smokes. There were a 64 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: lot of seat belts, but I guess that makes sense. 65 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: If you're blasting off to the Moon, you probably need 66 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: a few more seat belts than a normal car ride. Right, 67 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: good luck, William. We're going to close the door. There's 68 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: one minute left. We'll be tracking your every location. Keep 69 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 1: in touch with us on your walkie talkie and tell 70 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: us everything that happens up on the moon. Good luck. 71 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: As they closed the door, William closed his eyes five 72 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: or three two. The blast off was crazy. There was 73 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: so much smoke and fire and flames. The rocket blasted 74 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: off right to the moon. Down below, he could see 75 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: his family waving that they had come to see him 76 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: blast off to the moon. Oh and everybody else at NASA. 77 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: They couldn't even see the spaceship anymore as they were 78 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: watching it blast off from Earth. It was covered in 79 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: smoke and clouds now William had disappeared into the sky. 80 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: As William was flying through the atmosphere and into space 81 00:05:55,200 --> 00:06:00,040 Speaker 1: towards the Moon, he was It was very bumpy, but 82 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: finally he made it through the atmosphere and it was 83 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 1: a lot smoother of a ride. He was able to 84 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: unbuckle his seat belts and start to gather all of 85 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: his spy gear and supplies for everything you might need 86 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 1: on the moon when you're facing off with a snow monster. 87 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: They did know that this snow monster had only one weakness. 88 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: It was salt, Yes, salt, well, so they made a 89 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:38,840 Speaker 1: special blaster that shot salt pellets right out of it. 90 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: Hopefully that would defeat the snow monster before it was 91 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: too late. If William wasn't careful enough, that snow monster 92 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: would blast ice lasers at him and freeze William forever. 93 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 1: As the spaceship landed on the Moon, William was so 94 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,919 Speaker 1: excited to get off and start exploring and looking for 95 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: this snow monster. He knew that he had landed the 96 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: spaceship very close, but where was it? What do you 97 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: think would be a good clue to find a snow monster? 98 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: Can you imagine what his footprints might look like? Hmm? 99 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: Or does he even have footprints? Would they be made 100 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: of cotton, candy or barbecue sauce? No? No, no, no, 101 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: he'd probably have footprints made of like snow or ice, right, yes, yeah, 102 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: totally agree. So William began hunting around looking for footprints 103 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: with snow or ice, and immediately there they were. Wow, 104 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: that's disgusting, said William. He was looking at footprints that 105 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: didn't look exactly like what I was imagining. They looked 106 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: almost like a slug or a worm. The slime that 107 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: they leave on the ground kind of look like an 108 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: icy slime trail. Oh. Gross. William had to follow this 109 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: trail very quietly, and it led all the way to 110 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: an icy cave. William reached down for his walkie talkie. 111 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:29,239 Speaker 1: Sh HQ, HQ, come in, sh we read you loud 112 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: and clear. Have you found anything? William sh yes, I'm 113 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: pretty sure I found it. I found some footprint looking 114 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: slimy things, and then I found this icy cave. I 115 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: haven't been inside, but I'm pretty sure it's in there. 116 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: Sh William, just be careful and be prepared to use 117 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: your salt blaster, because if he gets any chance to 118 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: blast you with ice, he will freeze you forever. Sh 119 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh yeah, freeze me forever. Yeah, don't let 120 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:09,319 Speaker 1: that happen. Got it, Okay, over and out. Sh William 121 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: put his walkie talkie back and grabbed onto his salt plaster. 122 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: He slowly walked into the cave. It was pitch black, 123 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: but you could see all kinds of sparkles around, and oh, 124 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: those sparkles were coming from these very sharp icicles. Oh wow, 125 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 1: those are very sharp. Do you know what an icicle is? Yes, 126 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: they're hanging pointy pieces of ice. They're all over this cave, 127 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: super sharp. I bet if you touched it it would 128 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: cut right through his finger. So he probably shouldn't go 129 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: by those. And then all of a sudden he heard 130 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: a sound. That's gotta be the snow monster, whispered William. 131 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: He got his sault blaster ready, and then oooh wooh 132 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: he slipped on a big slab of ice, and the 133 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 1: snow monster heard him. Here he comes, here he comes, 134 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,199 Speaker 1: Look out, William. It was at that moment that William 135 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: had to choose to be brave. He didn't even have 136 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: time to think, but he had to turn on his 137 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: brave muscle. Did you know that everyone has a brave 138 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 1: muscle that you have to turn on. Yeah. Sometimes, if 139 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: you're in all, you know, on the moon, about to 140 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: get frozen solid by a snow monster, it's still scary 141 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: even for me. But we just have to choose to 142 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,559 Speaker 1: be brave. Well, William had a muscle, just like all 143 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: of us, and he knew how to turn it on. 144 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 1: And when he turned it on, he turned into a 145 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: brave machine. Dundundun, look out, snow monster, here comes William. 146 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: Just in the nick of time, William was able to 147 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:01,959 Speaker 1: reach for a salt blaster and blast all the salt pebbles. Ooh, 148 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: the snow monster. He melted right into a big pile 149 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: of ooeye gooey slime. Shure, it's about time that I 150 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 1: head home. I think I'm gonna grab a moon rock 151 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 1: though on the way, said William as he loaded back 152 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: into the spaceship and headed back towards home. Wow, what 153 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: a crazy adventure that he saved Earth from getting iced 154 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: over from the moon snow monster. The end. Make sure 155 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: you stick around to the end to hear kids shout outs. 156 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: We'll be right back after a brief word from our sponsor. 157 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: Great job, you listened all the way to the end. 158 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 1: All right.
