14
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: Let's go. Welcome back to Kids Short Stories Premium. Aaron

15
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: and Eden both lived on a farm and loved driving

16
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:08,399
Speaker 1: the tractors. They had some really special tractors with all

17
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: kinds of really important jobs. Some of them were combine

18
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: harvest sters that would you know, harvest all the crops

19
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: in the field. Or some tractors had big diggers and

20
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: shovels on the front of them so that they could

21
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: dig big holes or pull things that maybe got stuck

22
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 1: in the mud. Well, Aaron and Eden had been training

23
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 1: very very long time on these tractors and had gotten

24
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: very good at them. Today, it was Aaron's job to

25
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: take the tractors out on the field and to get

26
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: the fields ready for them to sow the seeds. Eden

27
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 1: was going to sow the seeds later, but Aaron had

28
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: to get the dirt all nice and ready for the seeds. Yeah,

29
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: because did you know that it's important to till the

30
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: dirt into make except the dirt before you lay the

31
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: seeds down. Yeah, So there's special tractors that do that

32
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: so that we don't get super dirty, because a long

33
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,119
Speaker 1: time ago, people used to use their hands and shovels

34
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 1: and things that they would pull and it would get

35
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: really messy and dirty, which can be fun. But Aaron

36
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: liked to use the tractors because it would keep his

37
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: hands clean well for the most part, but he still

38
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: had to get dirty as a farmer. But Aaron went

39
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: over to the barn to get one of the tractors

40
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 1: that had all the right equipment that he needed. And

41
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: as he sat up on the tractor and fired it

42
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: up and turned the key, it made a weird sound,

43
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: the click click click, and he tried again. He turned

44
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 1: the key, the click click click. What the that is strange?

45
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 1: This tractor always works. Hey, Eden, do you know if

46
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 1: there's anything wrong with this tractor? Aaron shouted, Uh, no,

47
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I just used that track to

48
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 1: the other day and it was just it worked just fine. Uh.

49
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: Just make sure that it's not out of gas. Okay.

50
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: They checked the the fuel and yeah, it had enough

51
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 1: diesel in there. M hmm, strange. All right, let's check

52
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,239
Speaker 1: it out and see if anything is going on inside

53
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: by the engine. So Aaron lifted it up and took

54
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: a look at the engine and wait a second, it's

55
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: missing a belt. And look at the fuel injector. It

56
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: looks like someone took some of the tubing. What eating eating?

57
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: Come over here? Aaron began to show eating all that

58
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: was missing from the tractor. He pointed out one of

59
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: the belts and some of the tubings where the fuel

60
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: would go. They were just gone. Uh that is really weird.

61
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: Eden said, Like, just the other day, I used this

62
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: tractor and I put it back and I promised I

63
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: didn't take any of that stuff. That's oh no, we

64
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 1: have a crook in our farm. Someone has stolen these things?

65
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:29,559
Speaker 1: Are you serious? Aaron couldn't believe it. Who would take

66
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 1: these parts out of our tractor? That's so weird. All right,

67
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 1: we've got to start looking around. Aaron and Eden spent

68
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: the rest of the day looking everywhere, but they couldn't

69
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 1: find any of the things that were missing, the belt

70
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: and those tubes. All right, I don't know where in

71
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: the world we're supposed to look, but um, yeah, it

72
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: doesn't even look like there's any finger per is here. Wait. Oh,

73
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: look at that. Aaron had found something that looked like

74
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: teeth marks near where the belt was supposed to be attached.

75
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 1: Look like something had a bit whoa, I think we

76
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: have some kind of animal problem. Yep, yeah, look at that.

77
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,919
Speaker 1: There were teeth marks right where the belt is supposed

78
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: to sit. So that must mean we have a mouse

79
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,799
Speaker 1: problem or a rat problem, or some kind of creature

80
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 1: must have taken this stuff. We gotta start looking around.

81
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: Aaron and Eden began to investigate all over the barn

82
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 1: for some kind of clue or you know who, what

83
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: kind of animal creature would take this stuff? Mm hmm.

84
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: They weren't getting anywhere and then all of a sudden,

85
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 1: Eden walked outside. Hey, Aaron, I'm gonna run back to

86
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: the house real quick. I'm getting kind of hungry, and uh,

87
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,479
Speaker 1: do you mean to make you some lunch? Yeah, that

88
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: would be great. All right, I'll be back in like

89
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: ten minutes. As Eden jogged over back to the house,

90
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: he looked up in the trees and saw something he

91
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 1: couldn't believe. What is Aaron, get over here? You know

92
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: what's going on? Look up in that tree. As they

93
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 1: looked up in the tree, they're belt and tubes. We're

94
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 1: hanging from the tree from one tree to the next.

95
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: It looked like someone had made a bridge connecting the trees.

96
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 1: What hey, uh there it's a squirrel. Look look look.

97
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: Eden looked up, and sure enough, if there were squirrels

98
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: in that tree running across their newly made bridge. Hey,

99
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: mr squirrel, Hey you come here? Um, maybe try maybe

100
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: try squeaking like a squirrel. Aaron started to try and

101
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: talk like a squirrel, and it seemed to work. One

102
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 1: of the squirrels ran over and he said, hello, or

103
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: what seems to be the problem. Oh hello, mr squirrel,

104
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: Well you see those things that you were running across

105
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: on those trees that's actually ours. Like, I don't know

106
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: if it was you or somebody else, but somebody took

107
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: those things from our tractor and we need it back

108
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: or else our tractor isn't gonna work. Oh goodels, I'm

109
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: so sorry. You see, we had big emergency. Are we

110
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: handy keep all of that baby squirrels from one nst

111
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: through another room? You had? Oh my goodness. You see

112
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: the squirrel began to explain that they had a nest

113
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 1: in one tree and they were afraid that the tractors

114
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: were gonna knock down that tree, and so they had

115
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 1: to move all their babies over to a different tree

116
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 1: that was gonna be safe. And so Aaron and Eden

117
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: began to explain to the squirrel why they didn't need

118
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: to worry. Oh, that's so sad. I'm so sorry that

119
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: we scared you. But we're not knocking that tree over,

120
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: so your babies can stay in either tree. Don't worry,

121
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 1: little smith Smulls. I don't know. Well, we're very sorry

122
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,959
Speaker 1: for stilling the things. We just didn't know about to

123
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 1: roll how to move our bodies from running tree to

124
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:58,199
Speaker 1: the next. Yeah, well, um, yeah, we we definitely need

125
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: those things back. But you can finish using them, and

126
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 1: then when you're done moving whatever you need to move,

127
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: then can you bring those things back down to the

128
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 1: ground so we can put them back on the tractor.

129
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 1: Absolutely little. So that was the day that Eden made

130
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 1: a special friend, one that Aaron had never thought would

131
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: be a special friend of theirs. But they both made

132
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,479
Speaker 1: special friends with the squirrels. And not only did they

133
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: help the squirrels move their babies around, but they also

134
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 1: helped the squirrels feel a lot better knowing that their

135
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: home was not going to be destroyed in their tree.

136
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: And so it was only about maybe twenty more minutes

137
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: when the squirrels were done doing what they needed and

138
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 1: they dropped the belt and the tubing back down to

139
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: the ground. Eden grabbed the belt and Aaron grabbed the tubes,

140
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 1: and they ran back over the trapter and hooked it

141
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 1: all back up and turned the key and it's working awesome.

142
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: All right. Well, I'm gonna get back to the job

143
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: of getting the soil ready, Aaron said. And then I

144
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: guess we are running behind schedule. So Eden, eat your

145
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 1: lunch really quick, and then you gotta get ready to

146
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: put the seeds down before it gets too dark. All right,

147
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 1: let's get to work and the rest of the day,

148
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: Aaron and Eden accomplished all their goals. They got the

149
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 1: soil ready and they planted all the seeds. What a

150
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 1: crazy adventure on the farm. Who would have thought that

151
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 1: squirrels might take some of the most important pieces of

152
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: a tractor. We'll see you next time on Kids Short
