1
00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: Hello friends, it's mister Jim and welcome back to kid

2
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:12,640
Speaker 1: Short Stories. Today's story comes to us from Nella and Lena. Hey, guys,

3
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: they sent me an awesome idea for a story, and

4
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 1: you can't too. Just head over to kidshortstories dot com.

5
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 1: Send me your idea and maybe you we'll turn it

6
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:24,319
Speaker 1: into an awesome adventure. Are you guys ready for a

7
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: story about her mean ogre pushing over all the trees

8
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 1: in the forest? Me too, Let's go. Nella and Lena

9
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: lived in a castle, far far away, in the middle

10
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: of a beautiful forest. Do you know who lives in castles?

11
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: These two brave princesses who they were on the animal

12
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 1: rescue team and a part of the guardians of the forest.

13
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: They had very important jobs. Not only were they princesses,

14
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 1: but they also had to be brave and make sure

15
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: that everyone in the forest was safe. Well, this morning,

16
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: something crazy happened, something that they never saw coming. Hey, Nela,

17
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 1: when we're done with our chores, do you want to

18
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 1: go outside and play? Said Lena. Oh? Absolutely, I can't

19
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: wait to go outside. What do you want to play?

20
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 1: Maybe we could play like hide and seek that's pretty fun,

21
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: or we could play kick the can Ooh, those are

22
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: both really good choices. Uh, let's do hide and seek,

23
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: said Nella. Yes, even princesses have chores to do around

24
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: the castle. They were in charge of making sure all

25
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: the dishes were clean, and their rooms were picked up,

26
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: and any mail in the mailbox was brought inside. These

27
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: were really important jobs that they were responsible over. So

28
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: that means when the job gets done well, they get

29
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: a reward, and if the job does not get done well,

30
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: well they still have to do it, but no reward.

31
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: All right, Lena, I'm almost done, are you. How's the

32
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: dishes going? They're going pretty well. Just one more minute, yes.

33
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: Nella and Lena had just about finished their chores, which

34
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: means that it was time to go outside and play

35
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: whatever they wanted, and today was a game of hide

36
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: and seek. Hide and seek is a really great game.

37
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: And as they were putting on their shoes, all of

38
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 1: a sudden they heard a SOUNDPS. Lina, did you hear that?

39
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:54,239
Speaker 1: Said Nella. Of course I did. Let's go check. Nella

40
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: and Lena race to their bedroom, which is where their

41
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 1: spy beeper was. As they pushed the button, it said,

42
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: Ella and.

43
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 2: Lena, this is HQ. We need your help. You see,

44
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: there seems to be some kind of very angry creature

45
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 2: in the forest near you who is knocking down all

46
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 2: the trees. We're not sure why this creature is doing that,

47
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 2: but we need you to save the day and rescue

48
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 2: the forest from whatever creature this is. Oh no, who

49
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 2: would do such a thing? Shouted Lena. I know, Ah,

50
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 2: it makes me.

51
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: So angry when people knock down all the trees in

52
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: a forest, said Nella. You see, as guardians of the

53
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: forest and a part of the animal rescue team, like

54
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: I said earlier, it's their job to make sure that

55
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: all the creatures in the forest stay safe. And sometimes

56
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: some creatures don't understand the importance of trees or the

57
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: importance of the forest, and they need to stop knocking

58
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: trees over all, Right, Nella, looks like we're not gonna

59
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: play hide and seek. It looks like we're off to

60
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: save the forest. Dona d du Nella and Lena thankfully

61
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: already had their shoes on. They were all ready to

62
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 1: go outside. Now instead of playing, they were gonna save

63
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,799
Speaker 1: the day. Nella and Lena raced over to a hill

64
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: near their castle. They had to climb up on the

65
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: hill to get a better vantage point of the forest

66
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 1: to see where this giant creature is knocking down all

67
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 1: the trees, and did not take long. Oh my goodness,

68
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: shouted Lena. Look over there. Nella turned her face and

69
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: there it was. Off in the distance to the east.

70
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: There were a whole bunch of trees falling over, not

71
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: by accident. All right, let's go. Nella and Lena ran

72
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 1: as fast as they could. It wasn't that far away,

73
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: so it only took them a few minutes to get there.

74
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: By the time they arrived there, it was holy smokes,

75
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: looks like a really mean ogre over there, said Nella.

76
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: Ye I don't like ogres. They're usually not very nice

77
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: and they have a lot of stinky toots. Said Lena.

78
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: All right, well, maybe if we need a plugger noses,

79
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 1: we can plug our noses. But let's go see if

80
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: we can talk to him, said Nella. Hello, mister ogre

81
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: over there. Could we talk for a second, or do

82
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: you go what are you doing over here? Don't you

83
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: princesses stay in the castle. Yes, we normally do, but

84
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 1: you see, we're also on the guardians of the forest,

85
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 1: and we see that you're knocking down all the trees,

86
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 1: and we you know, why are you doing that? Oh well,

87
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: because one I can, and two I had a bad

88
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: day and I need to take out some of my frustrations,

89
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: and knocking over trees feels pretty good. Oh well, wow,

90
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 1: I'm very sorry that you had such a bad day,

91
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: and I maybe you don't understand why or like the

92
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: impact that you're doing on the forest when you knock

93
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 1: over these trees. Oh I don't care, They're just trees,

94
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: said the ogre. The two girls spent some time explaining

95
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: to the Ogre how important these trees are. Do you

96
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: see these trees? They're absolutely beautiful and magnificent, not only

97
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: to look at, but they're also homes for all these creatures. Look.

98
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: Nella pointed back over to some of the trees that

99
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 1: the Ogre had knocked over, and there were bunnies and

100
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 1: squirrels and raccoons all running away from the trees that

101
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 1: had fallen over. That was their homes that he had

102
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: pushed over. The Ogre did not know that was the case.

103
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm so sorry. I didn't know that I

104
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: was doing all that damage. I thought a tree was

105
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: just a tree. I didn't know that it meant so

106
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: much to the forest. Yeah, well, I'm so glad that

107
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 1: you have had a change of heart, and we actually

108
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 1: have a really cool idea for you, said Lena. She

109
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: looked at Nella and nudged her to talk. All right, Yeah,

110
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: we wanted to invite you onto our Guardians of the

111
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: Forest team because you're so big and strong and brave.

112
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: We could use someone like you on our team. Wait

113
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: a second, you mean that you princesses want me a

114
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: mean ogre on your team. Yes, I think you could

115
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: be really helpful and making sure that the forest is safe.

116
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: You look like a really good protector. Of course I am.

117
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: I always protect my things and maybe I could protect

118
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: the forest too.

119
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 2: Oh.

120
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: Nella and Lina were so happy. Not only did they

121
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: stop the forest from being destroyed by a very angry ogre,

122
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 1: but we we're also able to get a new member

123
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: on the Guardians of the Forest team, which is the

124
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: most important part. The more people and creatures that we

125
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: have on our team, the better we can protect the forest. Wow. Uh,

Speaker 1: mister Ogre, I'm so glad that. Well. Do you have

132
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: the rest of the day cleaning up that ginormous mess. Wow.

133
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,559
Speaker 1: What an amazing adventure. I'm so glad that Nella and
