Speaker 2: Today's story is part two of Sterling in the Zombie

9
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:31,320
Speaker 2: Worlds and all that grumpiness. Who's ready to get rid

10
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 2: of this grumpiness from dark or sticky Breath? Me too,

11
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:34,959
Speaker 2: Let's go.

12
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: It was another beautiful morning as Sterling hopped onto the

13
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 1: school bus and there was Noah. Hey Noah, Sterling shouted, Hey,

14
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: calm down, Sterling, don't be so loud, said one of

15
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 1: the kids on the school bus. Oh sorry, Sterling snuck

16
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: through and sat next to Noah.

17
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: What's going on. Everyone's still looking grumpy, I know, said Noah.

18
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 2: I think the grumpiness is back. Oh man, I guess

19
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: we're gonna be playing live attack by ourselves again, said Sterling.

20
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 2: As the bus drove off. Not a single word was

21
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,839
Speaker 2: said in the school bus. Everybody was grumpy and didn't

22
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 2: want to talk to anybody except Sterling and Noah. They

23
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 2: had fun sitting all the way in the back. As

24
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 2: the school bus arrived and everyone jumped out and walked

25
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,479
Speaker 2: into school, Sterling grabbed his walkie and called out to Izzy,

26
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 2: s Hey, Izzy, are you there? Are you at school yet?

27
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 2: Because everyone here is super grumpy? Check on Jack too

28
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 2: over sh Immediately, Izzy replied, sh it's terrible. I've never

29
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 2: seen everyone like this before. Like, seriously, everyone, he's so grumpy,

30
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 2: said Izzie. And Jack He's even worse today. He barely

31
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 2: even opened his eyes when I walked past him. I

32
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 2: don't know. Something is not right. As schools started, Sterling

33
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 2: and Noah couldn't help but just wonder how in the

34
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 2: world did this happen. They were supposed to be learning

35
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 2: about math, but so hard to focus with all that

36
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 2: grumpiness and that giant mystery that needed to be solved.

37
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 2: Sterling's mind raised and then remembered.

38
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: Wait a second, I think yesterday it was pretty normal

39
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 1: until everyone went to the library. Yeah, when me and

40
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: Noah were cleaning the classroom. That is possibly when everyone

41
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 1: changed because but recess, Yes, it all makes sense. He

42
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: had to wait until the math part of their class

43
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: was done, because then they would have a couple of

44
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: minute break to get up and move around and shake

45
00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 1: all the wiggles out. Noah, I figured it out, whispered Sterling,

46
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 1: as emotioned for him to come over. Remember yesterday everyone

47
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 1: started getting weird at recess, right, yeah, said Noah. Well,

48
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,519
Speaker 1: remember we were cleaning the room and everyone else was

49
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: in the library before recess. So whatever changed them to

50
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:22,839
Speaker 1: be grumpy must have been in the library. Noah's eyes

51
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: got really big. Ooh, you mean the librarian.

52
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, she is pretty grumpy herself. Sterling laughed.

53
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's necessarily the librarian, but I

54
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: don't know. Something suspicious must have happened in that library.

55
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: Later on in the day, after lunch, it was time

56
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: to head to the library, and Sterling and Noah couldn't

57
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: wait to get there and look for clues. All right, Noah,

58
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: we have to stay on high alert whatever has infected

59
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: all these kids into being grumpy, I don't want it

60
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: to even come close to touching me, said Sterling. They

61
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: started walking around the library and Noah kept a very

62
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: close eye in the librarian. He was convinced that she

63
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: must be behind all of this grumpiness. Sterling was watching

64
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: all of his classmates and seeing what they were doing.

65
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: He was watching to see if he could figure out

66
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 1: what could have caused this. Most of them were too grumpy,

67
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: and they just sat in the corner and did nothing.

68
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 1: But some of them got up and were picking some

69
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 1: books and reading them. Everything seemed so normal, said Sterling,

70
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: and then he saw something drip from one of the books. Gross, Noah,

71
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: come look at this. The two of them walked over

72
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: to one of the books that had fallen off the

73
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 1: shelf and yeah, it looked like there was some kind

74
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: of goofy stuff sticking to the book. That's disgusting, said Noah.

75
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: I don't want to touch that. But wait a second,

76
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: look at that. On the edge of the book. There

77
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: was a small hole, a hole that almost looked like

78
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: a wormhole, like you know, have you ever seen an

79
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 1: apple with a wormhole where the worm has dug its

80
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: way inside of that fruit?

81
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 2: Well, it looked kind of like that, but in this book.

82
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 2: Sterling grabbed a pencil and poked the inside of this

83
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 2: hole with the pokey part of the pencil, and instantly

84
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:29,160
Speaker 2: they heard a sound. What was that, said Sterling? Did

85
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 2: it come from inside of that tiny little hole. As

86
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,559
Speaker 2: he tried to pull the pencil out from the hole,

87
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,239
Speaker 2: it started to get sucked in deeper and deeper.

88
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 3: What is going on?

89
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 2: Said Noah. It's the book is eating your pencil.

90
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 3: The book is eating your pencil.

91
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:57,239
Speaker 2: Sh now, shouting and the library sh That was the librarian.

92
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 2: She can be a little grumpy, but Noah shouldn't be

93
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: shouting right now at a time like this. All right,

94
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 2: we have got to call this into HQ. This is

95
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 2: gotta be connected to what's going on, and we have

96
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 2: to let Izzy know too, said Sterling. They grabbed their

97
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 2: walkie very quietly called into HQ.

98
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 3: Sh HQ. This is Sterling and Noah, we're in a library.

99
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 3: We can't be very loud, but something crazy is going

100
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 3: on here.

101
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 2: Over sh Hey, what's going on, Sterling?

102
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 3: Something terrible. Everyone's been super grumpy and we just found

103
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 3: some kind of creature that lives inside the book in

104
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 3: the library and it just ate my.

105
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 2: Petsil over sh Wow. Yes, we have had increased reports

106
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 2: of grumpy activity. Uh. We weren't exactly sure what to

107
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 2: do with that report, but if you found something that

108
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 2: could connect it all, please send it in, or, better yet,

109
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,279
Speaker 2: we'll send you a drone just hang tight over and out.

110
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 2: Sh All right, No, we've got to call Izzy and

111
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 2: let her know what we found. Maybe their library has

112
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 2: books that eat pencils too, said Sterling. They called into

113
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 2: Izzy and they were right sh Yeah, guys, here it is,

114
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 2: said Izzy. She was already in the library with her

115
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 2: class at their school, and sure enough she found a

116
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 2: book with some uzzy, gooey icky stuff pouring out of

117
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 2: a little hole on the side of the book. Great job, Izzy, YEA,

118
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 2: will send the drone over to you after we loaded

119
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 2: up with our evidence over sh By the end of

120
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 2: the day, HQ was able to figure out that yes,

121
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 2: they were zombie worms inside of the book that had

122
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 2: some kind of poison on them that were making everyone grumpy.

123
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 2: HQ was able to send out some antidote to all

124
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 2: the affected schools, as well as a special bubbleberry soap

125
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 2: spray so that they could clean all the books to

126
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 2: get rid of all the zombie worms. Great job, Sterling, Noah,

127
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 2: Jack and Izzy, you guys saved the day. And oh

128
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 2: we got rid of all that crumpiness.

129
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: Now let's check in on how the stinky lab is

130
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: doing now.

131
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 2: Purple nin ChEls, why do we always have the same problems.

132
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 4: You see, if we come up with good idea, then

133
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 4: we make the good idea and we start making progress.

134
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 4: But then the spies always stop us.

135
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 2: I need an answer right now? Why does that keep happening? Well, boss, uh,

136
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 2: the spies.

137
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 4: I think they're smarter than we give them credit.

138
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 2: You say, they don't.

139
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,679
Speaker 4: Even think about calling the spy team smarter than us.

140
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:54,599
Speaker 4: I will never ever speak. That's horrible things. They're purple ninjas.

141
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 4: It looks like we are not sleeping tonight. We must

142
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 4: figure out a new plan right now. Let's get to work.
