Speaker 1: Are you guys ready for today's adventure? Oh my goodness

15
00:00:53,600 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: about some silly slime monsters. Me too, Let's go. Vinnian

16
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: Emery lived in the mountains with their family. It was

17
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: a beautiful place, filled with holy smokes, ginormous mountains, and

18
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: these mountains you could see for miles and miles if

19
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 1: you climbed to the top. And that is something that

20
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: Vinnie and Emory loved to do, partially because it was

21
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: super fun. And the other part was their grandparents lived

22
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: on the other side of one of the mountains, and

23
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 1: so when they wanted to go visit them, they had

24
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: to get their hiking boots on and go on an

25
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: adventure over the mountain. WHOA, that would be a cool

26
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: way to go to grandma and Grandpa's house. Right, wow.

27
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 1: I kind of wish that my grandparents lived on the

28
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: other side of a mountain, and then I would have

29
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: to climb it every time. That would be so awesome. Well,

30
00:01:52,480 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: Vinnie and Emery were just waking up one Saturday morning. Wait,

31
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: is it time? Is today the day? Said Emory. They

32
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 1: checked the calendar and sure enough, today was the day.

33
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:14,839
Speaker 1: It's Grandma's day. They loved going to the grandparents' house,

34
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 1: and today was a special day because it was baking day.

35
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: Do you like to bake things? I love to bake

36
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: cookies or cupcakes. Oh my goodness, I gotta stop talking

37
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: about those things. I'm gonna want to eat them right now. Well,

38
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: Vinnie and Emory raced downstairs and ate their delicious breakfast,

39
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: got on all their hiking gear, said goodbye to their parents,

40
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: and off they started. This was a big adventure that

41
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: always took a couple hours to climb over this big

42
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,239
Speaker 1: mountain to get to the other side to go to

43
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: a grandma and grandpa's house. All right, Vinnie said, Emory,

44
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 1: which trail do you want to take this time? Hmmm,

45
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 1: We've never done that one before, so let's do that. Yeah.

46
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: There were a couple different trails that connected Vinnie and

47
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: Emery's house to their grandparents' house, and they usually picked

48
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 1: like these one, two or three trails, but there was

49
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 1: this one trail that they had never gone on and

50
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: always wanted to. It looked a little harder of an adventure,

51
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: but today would be a great day for that. As

52
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: they started hiking down this new trail, Vinnie saw something

53
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: ahead that looked strange, Memory said, Vinnie, do you see

54
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: those giant rocks up there? They grabbed their binoculars because

55
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: it was really far away. Emory said, yeah, I do.

56
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: Those looks stange. I don't remember the mountains having such

57
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: big boulders, said Emory. Well, Vinnie and Emery continued hiking.

58
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: They did like climbing over rocks, and so they were

59
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: kind of looking forward to getting to those big rocks

60
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: up ahead. Vinnie, if once we turned that corner up there,

61
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: we'll get a better look at those giant rocks. There

62
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: was a bend in the trail just up ahead. As

63
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: they were approaching, they turned the corner. And wait a second,

64
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 1: where do those giant rocks go? Said Vinnie. They looked

65
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: all around and they remembered that is exactly where those

66
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: giant boulders were. But somehow they had moved. Do you

67
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: think they felled on the mountain? Said Vinnie as he

68
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: scratched his head. He was very confused, because boulders don't

69
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: just up and run away, do they. Uh? I don't

70
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: see anything down the mountain, said Emory. Out of nowhere,

71
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,479
Speaker 1: there was a giant curse splat splat, right next to

72
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: Vinnie's shoe. Ew what is that? Shouted Vinnie as he

73
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: picked up his boot. And oh, it looks like a

74
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: giant ball of slime? Got wait, where did that come from?

75
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: Vinnie looked up in the sky and it was a

76
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: clear day, and then all of a sudden, here comes

77
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: another one. Chris Platt. Chrisplatt, right over Emery's head. What

78
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: is going on? Who's throwing those things of slime? What

79
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 1: was that? Up ahead was a cave and inside that cave,

80
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: there were creatures that looked like rocks. Wait a second,

81
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 1: those rocks that Vinnie and Emery had seen were actually

82
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: not rocks. They were creatures that were camouflaged. And now

83
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 1: look out, shouted Vinnie as he dove to the side

84
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 1: with Emory. These creatures were throwing eggs filled with slime.

85
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:56,239
Speaker 1: They were mean creatures, laughing hysterically. How are we gonna

86
00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: get past them? Shouted Emory. I don't know. Oh, what

87
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 1: are we gonna do. We can't get to Grandma and

88
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: Grandpa's house completely covered in this slime. Dude, it's disgusting

89
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 1: and it smells terrible too, said Vinnie. All Right, I

90
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: have an idea, said Emory. Emory started grabbing some branches

91
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: and sticks in leaves and thought, maybe, just maybe they

92
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: could sneak past with camouflage. Do you know what camouflage is? Yes,

93
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 1: We've talked about it quite a bit. Camouflage, Yes, is

94
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: when you try to blend into your surroundings. So if

95
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: they're in a forest, it would be a good idea.

96
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: If they look like a bush, right, yeah, or a

97
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: tree or a rock, kind of like those creatures. Well,

98
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,599
Speaker 1: Emery and Vinnie started to completely cover their clothes and

99
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 1: backpacks in leaves and sticks and branches. They looked absolutely hilarious.

100
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: Can you imagine trying to pretend to be a bush?

101
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: Ow ooh, that one hurts, said Vinnie as he shoved

102
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 1: a branch up his sleeve. It's gonna be worth it,

103
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: Vinnie said Emory. We just got to get past those ridiculous,

104
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: silly slime monsters. All right, Let's try and go really

105
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: slow and careful. They were completely covered in leaves and

106
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: looked like a bush. As they slowly crawled through the forest,

107
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 1: the slime monsters started to look around. They couldn't see

108
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: Vinnie and Emery anywhere. They were getting very mad. That

109
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: was the sound they were making. It sounds like a

110
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: pretty angry sound. But they were just looking to throw

111
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: more slimeballs. All right, we're getting closer. We just got

112
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: to get to this other ridge and then we'll be

113
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: good to go, said Emory. Vinnie and Emery carefully slid

114
00:07:55,200 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: over the ridge. Show we made it, said Emory. That

115
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: was such a good idea. Can't believe we almost turned

116
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: into giant slime balls. Grandma would have lost it and

117
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 1: never let us come bake cookies today. I know, said Emory,

118
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: that was insane. We gotta remember to never take this

119
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: trail again, to stay away from those rock slime monsters.

120
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: And that is the day that Vinnie and Emery took

121
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: the new trail that they'd never been on and got

122
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:32,319
Speaker 1: attacked by the giant rock slime monsters. If you were

123
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: attacked by slime monsters that were throwing slime balls at you,

124
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 1: how would you escape it? Would you think to put

125
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: on camouflage just like them? Yeah? I think that was

126
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: a pretty good IDEA. Great job, Vinnie and Emory. I

127
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: hope you guys have a great day baking delicious cookies

128
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,079
Speaker 1: and please save one for me and make a smiley

129
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: face at it. Well, friends, that is the end of

130
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: today's adventure. The great job. You listened all the way

00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,520
