Oh my goodness 15 00:00:53,600 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: about some silly slime monsters. Me too, Let's go. Vinnyan 16 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 1: Emery lived in the mountains with their family. It was 17 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: a beautiful place filled with holy smokes, ginormous mountains, and 18 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,759 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: Vinni and Emery love to do, partially because it was 21 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,479 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 --> 00:01:35,000 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 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: adventure over the mountain. WHOA, that would be a cool 26 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: way to go to grandma and Grandpa's house. Right, wow. 27 00:01:44,680 --> 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 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: to climb it every time. That would be so awesome. Well, 30 00:01:52,440 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: Vinny 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 Emery. They 32 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: checked the calendar and sure enough, today was the day. 33 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: It's Grandma's day. They loved going to the grandparents house, 34 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,839 Speaker 1: and today was a special day because it was baking day. 35 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,320 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 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,839 Speaker 1: about those things. I'm gonna want to eat them right now. Well, 38 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,959 Speaker 1: Vinnie and Emery race 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 --> 00:02:47,280 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 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: Grandma and Grandpa's house. All right, Vinnie said, Emery, which 44 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: trail do you want to take this time? M hmm, Well, 45 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: we've never done that one before, so let's do one. Yeah. 46 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 1: There were a couple of different trails that connected Vinnie 47 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: and Emery's house to their grandparents house, and they usually 48 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: picked like these one, two or three trails, but there 49 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: was this one trail that they had never gone on 50 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: and always wanted to. It looked a little harder of 51 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: an adventure, but today would be a great day for that. 52 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: As they started hiking down this new trail, Vinnie saw 53 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 1: something ahead that looked strange. Emery said, Vinnie, do you 54 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: see those giant rocks up there? They grabbed their binoculars 55 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: because it was really far away. Emery said, yeah, I 56 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: do those look strange. I don't remember the mountains having 57 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: such 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 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: up ahead. Vinnie, I, once we turned that corner, up there, 61 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,160 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 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: they were approaching, they turned the corner. And wait a second, 64 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: where did those giant rocks go? Said Vinnie. And they 65 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: looked all around and they remembered that is exactly where 66 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: those giant boulders were, but somehow they had moved. Do 67 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: you think they fell down the mountain? Said Vinny as 68 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: he scratched his head. He was very confused, because boulders 69 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: don't just up and run away, do they. I don't 70 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: see anything down the mountain, said Emery. Out of nowhere, 71 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 1: there was a giant cursed splat splat right next to 72 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: Vinnie's shoe. You what is that? Shouted Vinny as he 73 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: picked up his boot. And oh, it looks like a 74 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: giant ball of slime. Got wait where did that come from? 75 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: Vinny 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 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:09,280 Speaker 1: another one. Chris flatt, Chris flat right over Emery's head. 78 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 1: What is going on? Who's throwing those things of slime? 79 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 1: He he he? What was that? Up ahead was a 80 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: cave and inside that cave. There were creatures that looked 81 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: like rocks. Wait a second, those rocks that Vinny and 82 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: Emery had seen were actually not rocks. They were creatures 83 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: that were camouflaged and now look out, shouted Vinny as 84 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: he dove to the side with Emery. These creatures were 85 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: throwing eggs filled with slime. They were mean creatures, laughing hysterically, 86 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: he how are we gonna get past them? Shouted Emery. 87 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: I don't know what are we gonna do. We can't 88 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: get to Grandma and Grandpa's house completely covered in this slime. Dude, 89 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: it's disgusting and it smells terrible too, said Vinnie. All Right, 90 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: I have an idea, said Emory. Emery started grabbing some 91 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 1: branches and sticks and leaves and thought, maybe, just maybe 92 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 1: they could sneak past with camouflage. Do you know what 93 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: camouflage is? Yes, We've talked about it quite a bit. Camouflage, Yes, 94 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 1: is when you try to blend into your surroundings. So 95 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: if 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 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: Emery and Vinnie started to completely cover their clothes and 99 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: backpacks in leaves and sticks and branches. They looked absolutely hilarious. 100 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: Can you imagine trying to pretend to be a bush? 101 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: Out That one hurts, said Vinnie as he shoved a 102 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: branch up his sleeve. It's gonna be worth it, Vinnie 103 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: said Emery. 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 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:21,720 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 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: Vinnie and Emery anywhere. They were getting very mad. Huh, 109 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: that was the sound they were making. It sounds like 110 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: a pretty angry sound. But they were just looking to 111 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: throw more slimeballs. All right, we're getting closer. We just 112 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: gotta get to this other ridge and then we'll be 113 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 1: good to go, said Emery. Vinny and Emery carefully slid 114 00:07:55,200 --> 00:08:01,679 Speaker 1: over the ridge. Show we made it, said Vinny. Emery. 115 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: That was such a good idea. I can't believe we 116 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: almost turned into giant slime balls. Grandma would have lost 117 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: it and never let us come bake cookies. Today. I know, 118 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: said Emery, that was insane. We gotta remember to never 119 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: take this trail again, to stay away from those rock 120 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: slime monsters. And that is the day that Vinnie and 121 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: Emery took the new trail that they've never been on 122 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: and got attacked by the giant rock slime monsters. If 123 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:36,359 Speaker 1: you were attacked by slime monsters that were throwing slimeballs 124 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 1: at you, how would you escape it? Would you think 125 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,839 Speaker 1: to put on camouflage just like them? Yeah? I think 126 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: that was a pretty good idea. Great job, Vinnie and Emery. 127 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: I hope you guys having 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 on it.
