1
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:06,800
Speaker 1: Hey friends, it's Mr Jim and welcome back to Kids

2
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:10,639
Speaker 1: Short Stories. This week, we are celebrating the launch of

3
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: my first book called The Day We Saved the Lightbulb.

4
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,960
Speaker 1: Make sure that you tell your parents to go check

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,960
Speaker 1: out the show notes below, where that link will send

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,119
Speaker 1: you to the page where you can preorder it. I

7
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 1: just need to know how many of you want your

8
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 1: own book, and maybe you'll even click a reward where

9
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:35,239
Speaker 1: I will sign your book. There's some pretty cool rewards

10
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,160
Speaker 1: waiting for you over there that you've got to see

11
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:42,520
Speaker 1: for yourself, including some puzzles and some other surprises. Well, friends,

12
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: are you ready to get into today's adventure? I definitely am.

13
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: Let's go. That night, it was very hard for Kaden

14
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: to fall asleep because his mind was racing about the

15
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: spy adventure that was waiting for him in the morning.

16
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:09,119
Speaker 1: But finally, beep, beep, beep beep, his alarm clock went

17
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: off and he sat straight up out of bed. He

18
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 1: knew he had to get to work. There had never

19
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: been a time as fast as now that Kayden brushed

20
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: his teeth, got dressed, aid breakfast, and got ready for school.

21
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: Hey mom, how are my friends doing? Do you know

22
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,759
Speaker 1: if they're feeling any better yet. Well, I just received

23
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 1: some text messages from their parents and no, they still

24
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: feel really not well this morning, so they're going to

25
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: be staying home from school. And I even heard that

26
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: some of your other classmates aren't feeling well either. So

27
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 1: there must be a bug going around school. Just be

28
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: careful when you're at school. Okay, Oh, I'll be careful,

29
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 1: all right, said Kayden. But I think it's actually not

30
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: really like a bug at school. I think it's something

31
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 1: else going on, something with the Purple Ninjas. The Purple Ninjas,

32
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: said his um. If they're behind this, I know you

33
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: can stop them, Kayden. Just stay safe. Kayden finished tying

34
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: his shoes, opened the door, and started walking towards school.

35
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: Up ahead, he heard a lot of commotion, a lot

36
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: of noises, a lot of people talking, like there was

37
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: a crowd outside, but it was very early in the morning.

38
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: It was not your average, you know, bus stop crowd

39
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 1: of people. There's something else going on up there. Excuse me,

40
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: what are all what are all you guys doing here?

41
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: Asked Kayden as he was walking down the street. There

42
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 1: was a long line of people going all the way

43
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 1: down his street. Hey, the end of the line is back.

44
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: There no cutting, No cutting, said a person in line.

45
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to get in line. What are you

46
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: in line for? Asked Kayden. Real, funny kid, We're all

47
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 1: in line for the same thing. Those healthy snack balls

48
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: have taken the town by storm. We don't want to

49
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: miss him before I sell out. No, no, no you should.

50
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: I don't think you should eat those. My friends eat

51
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: those yesterday and they got really sick today. You're not

52
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: tricking me. I had one yesterday and yeah, I don't

53
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: feel great, but they said that was normal and just

54
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 1: to eat more. Kay didn't realized that there was no

55
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: hope in talking to these people. They had somehow been

56
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: brainwashed into believing that this snack ball was good for you,

57
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: but in fact he knew it wasn't. He was running

58
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: out of time before school started, so we hurried along,

59
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: running past the rest of the line. It was a

60
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: very long line of people waiting at this snack truck,

61
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: and he couldn't believe how quickly the whole town had

62
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 1: heard about this new thing. He walked into school, got

63
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: to his classroom and waited and waited, and only a

64
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: few of his classmates arrived As the teacher walked in,

65
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: she explained, hello, class, Uh, it seems that there's a

66
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: lot of people home sick today, so today we're having

67
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: a movie day. Kayden was normally excited about a movie

68
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: day at school, but not today. There was bigger, way,

69
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: bigger things going on. As the teacher started the movie,

70
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 1: Kayden couldn't help but just stare out the window. Thankfully,

71
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: his class was positioned in a way that looking out

72
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: the window, he could see the snack truck right there,

73
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 1: that shiny new purple snack truck. Figuring out this mystery

74
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 1: is way more important than watching a movie, Kayden whispered

75
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: to himself. During the next hour, he just had his

76
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: eyes glued on that purple truck outside. And finally something happened.

77
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: Is that a drone up there? It was hard for

78
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: Kaden to see out the window high enough, but high up,

79
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: just immediately above that purple truck looked like there was

80
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 1: a drone coming down from the clouds and it was

81
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,919
Speaker 1: flying right towards the purple truck. It looked like he

82
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: was delivering a big box. It lowered the box and

83
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: set it down on the roof of that truck and

84
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: then zoom back up towards the clouds. I gotta keep

85
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: my eye on that drone, see where it goes. As

86
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: he watched it fly up towards the clouds, the clouds

87
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: started to open up, revealing what was behind it. Is

88
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: that the purples to keep blimp ho he smokes, said

89
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: Kaden to himself. I was right along. He accidentally said

90
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: that very loudly in his class, and his teacher turned

91
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: towards him and said, Kayden, is everything? Okay? What were

92
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: you right about? Um? This movie? This movie is the best,

93
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: the best movie, right, guys. Everyone was a little confused

94
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 1: at why Kayden was acting strange, but he couldn't reveal

95
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: to everyone that he was on the spy team and

96
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,479
Speaker 1: was currently in the middle of an important investigation. The

97
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 1: rest of the school day dragged on, but finally the

98
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: school bell rang and school was over. Kaden grabbed his

99
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 1: things and ran out the front door. HQ, this is Kaden.

100
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: I have an update. It's great to hear from you, Kayden.

101
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,239
Speaker 1: What have you learned so far? S well, I'm pretty

102
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 1: sure I just saw the purple glimp hovering up above

103
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: the purple snack truck and I think they're delivering the

104
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: supplies for it. It's got to be all connected to

105
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 1: the purple ninjas and doctors taking breath sh great job

106
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 1: on the surveillance, Kaden. We're gonna need you to analyze

107
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: one of those snack balls and use your chemistry set.

108
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: That should be able to tell us exactly what is

109
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: going on with those snack balls. Let us know what

110
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:50,239
Speaker 1: you find out. Over and out skat and ran towards

111
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: where that purple snack truck was parked, but unfortunately there

112
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: was still a very long line. This is gonna take

113
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,039
Speaker 1: forever if I wait in that line to get a

114
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,359
Speaker 1: piece of that snack Excuse me? Can I have a

115
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 1: tiny little piece of that snack ball you just bought.

116
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: You think you're gonna get a piece of my delicious

117
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: snack ball? You got another thing coming. This is alvermine

118
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: and no share in. How in the world was Cating

119
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: gonna get a sample to test. You gotta find some

120
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: crumbs or something. Someone must have dropped it somewhere, maybe

121
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: even the trash can, said Caden. I can't believe I

122
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: am actually considering looking in the trash can, but duty calls. Unfortunately,

123
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: there were no crumbs on the floor, which meant Caden

124
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: had to look inside of the trash can. Maybe, just

125
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: maybe he would get lucky enough that someone didn't eat

126
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: their entire snack ball, there would be a piece for

127
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: him to test. As he picked up the lid to

128
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: the garbage can and looked inside, there were a whole

129
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: bunch of wrappers, but deep down inside there it was

130
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: a small piece leftover of a snack ball there. I

131
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: just gotta reach down and oh, this is disgusting. I

132
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: just gotta grab that and there all right, now to

133
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: run some tests. Inside of his spy pack, he had

134
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: a special chemistry set that had this very secret special

135
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: piece of equipment that it can analyze anything just a

136
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: few seconds, all right, I just gonna line up the

137
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: lasers and press this button. And after the machine analyzed

138
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: all the data, the results were not good. Holy smokes,

139
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 1: I was right, HQ. This is Kadan. The news is

140
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: not good. Come in over. What's the news, Kaden? Were

141
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 1: you able to analyze some of those snack balls? Yeah?

142
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: And basically it's pure sugar with something added to it

143
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: to make it like you just always want more and

144
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: more and more. This is definitely not a healthy snack.

145
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: It's just a giant sugar ball. That's great to hear.

146
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 1: Great to work, Caden. We're gonna send out a team

147
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: and close down that purple snack truck once and for all,

148
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: over and out. Sh Wow. Great job, Caden. He sold

149
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: that mystery. You see, in fact, that purple snack truck

150
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 1: was led by Purple Ninja's and because of Caden's persistence

151
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: in figuring out this mystery, not only did they shut

152
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: down the snack truck, but he was also able to

153
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: help his friends and all the people in the city

154
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 1: get better from that terrible sickness they got from those

155
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,960
