10
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 1: this amazing adventure? Oh, I am, let's go. It was

11
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: a beautiful day outside, as James was sitting in his

12
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 1: backyard with a big piece of paper, like way bigger

13
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: than normal, and some markers and crayons and all kinds

14
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: of things. He was an expert at drawing imaginative creatures.

15
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: Do you know what that means? Yeah, it might mean

16
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 1: a creature critter that doesn't really exist in our world.

17
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: Maybe it exists in a different world, but you have

18
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,680
Speaker 1: to close your eyes and you have to picture. How

19
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 1: am I going to build a brand new critter? Maybe

20
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 1: it has legs like a kangaroo, um antlers like a

21
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:28,839
Speaker 1: dear wings like an eagle, and maybe he can swim underwater,

22
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: like like a shark. That can be a pretty fun

23
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: game to play when you're creating something new, and that

24
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: is something James loved doing. M All right, what should

25
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 1: I make today? Said James. He was holding an orange

26
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: marker and a brown marker and he was trying to

27
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,639
Speaker 1: think of what kind of creature he could make today.

28
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: He was using a brand new set of markers that

29
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: he had just gotten, and these, in fact, we're magic markers,

30
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: and he didn't quite realize the power that he held

31
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: between his fingers. Well, I guess it wasn't much longer

32
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: before he actually saw how magical these markers actually were.

33
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: How about a wolf? Yeah, like a wolf with big

34
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 1: teeth and big ears and lots of cool fern Um,

35
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: but maybe cat like jumping powers? Yeah, it's like a

36
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: wolf cat. James started drawing this amazing new creature that

37
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: was a combination between a wolf and a cat. I

38
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 1: don't think there's any wolf cats on our planet, here

39
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: on Earth. Maybe they live on another planet far away,

40
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: but James was going to be the first human to

41
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: ever see a true, real wolf cat. Hey, James, it's

42
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: time for lunch, shouted his parents. Okay, I'll be right there,

43
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: he replied. He was just finishing up his drawing there. Oh,

44
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: that looks great. Okay, I'll be right inside. He left

45
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: his paper out in the sun and he raced inside

46
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: to eat a delicious lunch. Hey, James, so how what

47
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:13,679
Speaker 1: are you drawing out there, they asked. M Hm, Oh,

48
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 1: this is a delicious sandwich. Thank you. Um, I was

49
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: making a wolf cat. It's pretty cool. Oh, can I

50
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: see it? Asked one of his parents. Yeah, I'll go

51
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: grab it. James raced out the back door to go

52
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: grab that big piece of paper with his drawing on it,

53
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: and as he ran outside, something was very wrong. What

54
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: happened to my drawing, James shouted. It's completely gone. This

55
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: this piece of papers blank. What kind of markers are

56
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: these things? James was pretty frustrated because he had spent

57
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 1: all this time drawing this amazing Wolf Cat Creature and

58
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: somehow it had disappeared right off of the paper. I'M

59
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: gonna have to start all over on this thing, said James.

60
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: But then he heard a sound. What in the world

61
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: was that? Said James. He looked all around, but he

62
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 1: couldn't see anything that could have made that sound. But

63
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: then he looked up in the tree and there it was.

64
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 1: Wolf cat. Is that you said, James? James's mouth dropped

65
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 1: open and his eyes were as big as Pepperonis. He

66
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: thought he was imagining things and maybe even losing his mind,

67
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 1: so he called his parents out to the backyard to

68
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 1: see if that indeed was real or just his imagination.

69
00:04:55,480 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: Do you guys see that up in the tree? Shouted James. No, James,

70
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? There's this well, I'm not

71
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: gonna tell you what it is. I want to see

72
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,679
Speaker 1: if you can actually see the same thing that I see.

73
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 1: Said James. It's right up on that branch. Come here.

74
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 1: His parents walked closer to him, looked up and they

75
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 1: couldn't believe it either. Mouth dropped open and their eyes

76
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: were as big as Pepperoni's, as they were very confused

77
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: at what they were looking at. That is what I

78
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: drew on this piece of paper over here, said James.

79
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: I'm serious, I drew this. It's I call it a

80
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: wolf cat. It's part Wolf Park Cat, and listen to it.

81
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: It purrs and then it howls like a wolf, but

82
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: it sounds different. See, it was just then that this

83
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: new creature, this wolf cat started to carefully climb back

84
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 1: down the tree. I think it ran up there because

85
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: it was afraid at first because it had just come

86
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: alive off of the piece of paper. Come here, little girl,

87
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,359
Speaker 1: said James as he held out his hand for the

88
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: creature to sniff his fingers. It immediately nuzzled its face

89
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: into James Hand. It definitely was adorable and very fluffy,

90
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:23,599
Speaker 1: and it was kind of strange looking. Part Wolf and

91
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 1: part cat. Is Super Cool. Can I keep him? Said

92
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 1: James to his parents as he turned around with puppy

93
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: dog eyes and his bottom lip hanging out from his mouth. Um,

94
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: we've never seen an animal like this before, they said,

95
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: but it does seem pretty nice and it does seem

96
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: to like you. I guess we can give it a try. Yes,

97
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 1: James shouted and raised his hands and the wolf cat

98
00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: gave a happy sound. Wow, how amazing is that? Not

99
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: only did James have some magic markers that created a

100
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: new thing in real life, but he also, I think,

101
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 1: made a new friend in that wolf cat. Can you

102
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: make that sound that the wolf cat can make? purrs

103
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: like a cat and then howls like a wolf, and

104
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: then you combine the two to make a wolf cat

105
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: sound great job. Yeah, it's pretty hard to do, but

106
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: those wolf cats are amazing creatures that I think James

107
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: is gonna learn a whole lot about. Even though this

108
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: is the end of our story, it's only just the

109
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: beginning of James's amazing adventures that lie ahead with his

110
00:07:54,880 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: new friend the wolf cat. Great job, you listen to

111
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: all the way to the end and you know what
