Have you ever been on a skateboard before? 15 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: Holy smokes, there can be kind of hard to stand on. 16 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 1: I'm I'm not very good at it. I don't have 17 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: the right balance. But oh, you're pretty good at it? 18 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: Oh wow? Well, Weston was really good at it, and 19 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 1: so we're all of his friends. Hey, Weston, check this out. 20 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: One of his friends launched off of a jump and 21 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 1: did an awesome move. Dude, that was so cool. Shouted Weston. 22 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: All right, mind turn, guys, look out. Weston dropped in 23 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: on the halfpipe and soared through the air with a 24 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:46,479 Speaker 1: sick move. Weston, that was insane, shouted his friends. Drip, drip, drip. 25 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: Oh no, it's starting the rain, all right, guys, Well, uh, 26 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: maybe we can hang out tomorrow. I'll see you bye, 27 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: west In, shouted his friends. It was starting to rain 28 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: and it was time to go home. It's not fun 29 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: to skateboard in the rain, and it can be extra 30 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,239 Speaker 1: super slippery, so that's also not a good part. As 31 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: he was riding home, he noticed that his front trucks 32 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 1: were just way too loose. The trucks. That's the part 33 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 1: where the wheels fit on. The trucks are the middle 34 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: part that attached to the bottom of the skateboard, and 35 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 1: the wheels attach to the trucks. It's kind of like 36 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: the axle. Holy smokes, I got a tight knees when 37 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: I get home, said Weston as he pulled in on 38 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: his driveway and zoomed into his garage. He parked his 39 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: skateboard in a nice open spot. He made it just 40 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: in time because the rain was now pouring. Sh can 41 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: you make the sound of rain. Yeah, well it was 42 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: pouring rain and he just made it back in time 43 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: to his garage. Who that was a close one, said Weston. 44 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: He grabbed some screwdrivers and started working on those trucks 45 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: on the bottom of a skateboard. Weston, is that you, 46 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 1: Weston shouted his mom. Yeah, I'm in the garage. Oh. Perfect, Well, 47 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: just come inside and wash up because it's time to eat. 48 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: Can I finish making the adjustments on my trucks on 49 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: the skateboard? No, Weston, I need you to come in 50 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: right now, so just lead that there. Lead the screwdriver 51 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: right there, and you can finish it after we eat. 52 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 1: Come on, said his mom. Weston stood up and dropped 53 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: his screwdriver right next to the skateboard as he came inside. 54 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: Oh he smelled a very delicious What is that is 55 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: that lasagna? Mom? Yes it is. Come on, Weston loved lasagna. 56 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: Have you ever had lasagna before? Oh? It's so good. 57 00:03:55,400 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: It's got like pasta sauce and cheese and the pasta 58 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: noodle part, and oh it's so good. Weston washed his 59 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: hands and sat at the table and his family ate 60 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: dinner together. Dinner was so good he almost forgot about 61 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: a skateboard still sitting in the garage, and then he 62 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: heard his walkie s Weston, are you there? Shh? Can 63 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: I please be excused? I ate all my dinner and 64 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: I think my friends are needing my help or something. Yes, Weston, 65 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: just put your dishes in the sink and then clean 66 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: up and then you can go. Okay, thank you so much. 67 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: Weston dropped all of his dishes in the sink and 68 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 1: washed them off, and then raced over to where his 69 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 1: walkie talkie was in the other room. Hey, guys, yeah, 70 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: I'm here. What's up? Dude? You won't believe this. I 71 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: think there's some kind of skateboard monster, like all over 72 00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: the neighborhood. All of our skateboards are missing. There, no what. 73 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: He jumped off the couch and raced over to the garage. 74 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: He had to check and make sure that his skateboard 75 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: was there. And yeah, west and yours has probably gone too, 76 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: sh as Weston burst into the garage. Wait, no, my 77 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: skateboard is right there. Guys. Wait, what are you talking about? 78 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 1: Sh what? That's not fair, Weston. All of our skateboards, 79 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: every single one of ours, has disappeared, and Johnny is 80 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: convinced that there's some kind of skateboard monster eating them all. 81 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: Sh yeah, Weston, I totally I swear I saw a creature. 82 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 1: It looked like a skateboard and it was alive, and 83 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 1: it ate my skateboard, said Johnny. Sh Well, you have 84 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: to understand that Johnny was He was known to tell 85 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: some crazy, wild stories, and so what kind of makes 86 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: sense that some of the friends might not believe him. 87 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: But Weston Weston really did like Johnny, So maybe, just 88 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: maybe Johnny was telling the truth. Okay, Johnny, that is 89 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: a pretty crazy story. But I do have a camera 90 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: out in front of my garage. Maybe it picked up something. 91 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 1: I'll let you guys know what I find over sh 92 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: Weston asked his parents to look at the video feed 93 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: for the camera in front of the garage. They grabbed 94 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: the monitor and he started scanning through the video. All right, Uh, 95 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: this probably happened in the last thirty minutes since we 96 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: were eating dinner. All right, so I'll start there. He 97 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: started watching the video and quickly looking through it, and 98 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, Holy smokes, Johnny was right. 99 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 1: Weston ran back over to his walkie talkie. Guys, come 100 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: in this is Weston, I have something you need to 101 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:58,679 Speaker 1: see for yourself. Come to my house right away, over 102 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: sh It only took a few minutes before all of 103 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 1: his friends showed up on Weston's front yard. Weston couldn't 104 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: wait to show them what he had found. Guys, look 105 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: at this. Weston opened up the video and pressed play. 106 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: Holy smokes, guys, I wish you could see the video 107 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: that Weston and his friends are looking at right now. 108 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: But there is some kind of real skateboard monster that 109 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 1: rode up Weston's driveway. It looked inside at the skateboard. 110 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: It's like it was coming to eat Western's skateboard. It 111 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: saw something and got scared and ran away. But then 112 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: I think it went over to Johnny's house and then 113 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: it ate Johnny's skateboard. All of Weston's friends couldn't believe 114 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: their eyes. What in the world was that? They all said, 115 00:07:55,120 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: and turned to Weston, and why didn't it eat yours? Guys? 116 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: But I'm pretty sure we just stumbled into some kind 117 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: of crazy mystery. We need to work together to solve 118 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: this one. Holy smokes.
