Well, the 20 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: beach has endless opportunities for an amazing adventure, and that's 21 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: exactly what is about to happen. To Taryn and Everett. 22 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 1: It was a hot summer day. As the two of 23 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: them were splashing in the waves, they were imagining that 24 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,199 Speaker 1: they were a team of explorers that were the first 25 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 1: ones to ever be on that beach, and they were 26 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: looking for some new creatures never before seen. 27 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 2: Everett, look at this over. 28 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: Here, Tharn said. He was pointing down at the sand, 29 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: and there were these little holes in the sand, and 30 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: as the water would flow over it, bubbles would come 31 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 1: out from it, and Theren imagine what was inside? What 32 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: do you think is down deep in the sand? 33 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 2: Everett? 34 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: Hmm. Everett thought for a minute and said, well, there 35 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: must be creatures down there, maybe creatures that are. 36 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 2: Stuck in the sand. We gotta save them. 37 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: As they started digging in the sand, Everett paused and 38 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: saw something off in the distance. Farren, do you see 39 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: that thing in the water? Where is it a pirate ship? 40 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 1: Said Faryn, laughing, No, no, no, no, I'm serious. I'm 41 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: not I'm not uh, I'm not joking. I see something 42 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: really large floating in the water out there. As soon 43 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: as Everett changed his tone, Farn looked up and put 44 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: his hand over his eyes. It was a very sunny 45 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: day and so he had to oh, wait a second, Yeah, 46 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: I do see that, said farn Off. In the distance, 47 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 1: Everett had discovered something that was floating in the water. 48 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: It looked like a giant wooden box, like a big crate, 49 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: much better, bigger than them, And so they had no 50 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,119 Speaker 1: idea what on earth could be floating in the ocean 51 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: inside of that big wooden crate. 52 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 2: But as the waves. 53 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: Were crashing on the beach, those were the same waves 54 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: that were bringing this wooden box closer and closer to 55 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: Thearin and Everett. Everett go grab something to see if 56 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 1: we can open that thing. I think it's about to 57 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: land on shore. Everett ran over and grabbed one of 58 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: their shovels. As theren grabbed the box and was able 59 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 1: to push it to shore. It was way bigger than him. 60 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: It was a massive box. But as it was floating 61 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: in the water, you know heavy things, when they float 62 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: on water, they're a lot easier to push. But as 63 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: soon as it bumped into the sand on the beach, 64 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: there was no more budging. This ginormous woulden crate. 65 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 2: Here's a shovel. 66 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: Everett was holding it above his head like a victorious 67 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: adventurer who had discovered something. He passed the shovel to Tharon, 68 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: who used the edge of the shovel to wedge into 69 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: this part of the wooden crate. That it looked kind 70 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: of like a door, but it had a lock on it, 71 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: but maybe, just maybe he could pry it open. As 72 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: he started to try and open up that locked door, 73 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: they heard a sound inside hmm there and dropped the 74 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: shovel and jumped back. 75 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: Everett, did you hear that there's some kind of creature 76 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 2: in there? 77 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: And it was then that they realized that there was 78 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: some writing on the side of the box danger wild 79 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 1: animal inside. 80 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 2: There's an animal in there. He's stuck. He's probably almost drowning. 81 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 2: We gotta get him out. 82 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: Of there, said Everett. Okay, but what do you think's 83 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: in there? Guys, hold on a second, what do you 84 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: think is inside of that box? It's like I said, 85 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: it's way bigger than them. It's taller than them, longer 86 00:04:59,279 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: than them. 87 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 2: Why beater than them? 88 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: There must be a very ginormous creature in there. Barren 89 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: picked the shovel back up and wedged it into the 90 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: edge of the door and pushed with all of his might. 91 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: It wasn't enough and so Everett came to and they 92 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,840 Speaker 1: both pushed the shovel and finally popped the lock, cracked 93 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: off and flew into the sand. The door immediately swung open. 94 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: It was very rusty and very squeaky. But as the 95 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 1: door opened, the two brothers looked inside and couldn't believe it. 96 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: It's a ginormous butt and they were not joking. There 97 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 1: was a ginormous cray. I don't know how else to say. 98 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: This bottom a bottom of an animal. What is that thing? 99 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 1: Look at that tiny little tail, said Everett. Thearn and 100 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: Everett backed up, and so did the creature inside of 101 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: the box. As he stepped out, backing up almost like 102 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 1: a truck beep out from the box. They couldn't believe it. 103 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: It was a ginormous rhinoceros. Holy smokes, is that guy big? 104 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 1: Said thearren. Mm Oh, it's okay there, big guy, as 105 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: Everett was patting the side of the rhinoceros. It's gonna 106 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 1: be okay, Darren, What do we do? Asked Everett. I 107 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: don't know, but look at this. Inside there were a 108 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: whole bunch of papers, like maps, and a whole bunch 109 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,479 Speaker 1: of stuff. They didn't understand but they could definitely tell 110 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: where this creature had come from. 111 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 2: Look at this, I think like. 112 00:06:55,760 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: Some poachers stole this rhinoceros from its home. We've got 113 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,799 Speaker 1: to figure out a way to get it back, said Darren. 114 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 2: How in the world are we going to. 115 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: Get this thing back across the ocean to where it 116 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: came from. Everett didn't even take a second to think 117 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: of an awesome idea. Well, look at this. This crate 118 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: that the rhinoceros was in is a giant wooden crate. 119 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: I bet we could change this into some kind of 120 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: raft and then we could cruise across the ocean and 121 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: bring him back. 122 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:29,679 Speaker 2: To his home. 123 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: Everett was full of really good ideas, and this was 124 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: one of those. Wow, I love it, said Darren. Let's 125 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: get to work. The two brothers started modifying the crate 126 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: into more of a raft. So they took the roof 127 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: off and sealed up the sides, and there it was. 128 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 1: It was absolutely perfect. They could all fit in with 129 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: the rhinoceros, and they grabbed some delicious food for the rhinoceros, 130 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: which you really loved to eat, the grass that was 131 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: on the shore of the beach. They grabbed some water 132 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: bottles and off, they began their journey of rafting across 133 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: the ocean with a rhinoceros. Could you do that kind 134 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: of adventure? Would you be brave enough? Oh? I bet 135 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: you are. 136 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 2: Well. 137 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: These two brothers sailed across the ocean with their new friend, 138 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: mister rhino, and mister Rhino was so happy when he 139 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: could see his house, his home, not that far away. 140 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: After several hours of rafting across the ocean, they finally 141 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,599 Speaker 1: made it back to his home. He jumped off the 142 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: raft and huffed and puffed m and made a big 143 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: sound and he was clearly very happy. 144 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 2: Wow. Great job thereon. And Everett, you guys save the day. 145 00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 2: You saved this rhino. 146 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: And we're turning him back to his home. This may 147 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: be the end of the story, but these two brothers 148 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: sure do love a great adventure, and I'm sure there's 149 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: another amazing adventure that lies ahead the end.
