Me too. Let's go. Carter and Ava. 11 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 1: We're playing with their binoculars in the backyard. They had 12 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: got these binoculars a couple of months ago, but this 13 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: was the first time that they were really spending a 14 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: lot of time working with them. Have you ever used 15 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: binoculars before. Yeah, they go over your eyes and you 16 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 1: look through them and it far away things seeming like 17 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: they're a lot closer. They're a really important tool for 18 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: any spy if you're wanting to, you know, spy up 19 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 1: in the clouds and see if you can find the 20 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: purple blimp, or maybe if you smell something stinky, you 21 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: grab your binoculars to keep an eye out for a 22 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: purple ninja or doctor Stinky Breath himself. Well, Carter and 23 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: Ava were in their backyard practicing and learning how to 24 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: focus with the binoculars, and they're about to find something 25 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 1: pretty remarkable. Hey, Ava, could I have a turn with 26 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: those binoculars in like a minute, asked Carter. He was 27 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: swinging while Ava was having her turn. She was laid 28 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: down in the long green grass with her elbows dug 29 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: into the ground to make a nice foundation for her 30 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: hands to stay still as they leaned up against her forehead. Yes, Carter, 31 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: I'm almost done, but I'm just serving this one hillside 32 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: and that mountain over there. They lived where they could 33 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: see mountains from their backyard, which is really cool, and 34 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: they were convinced that they had seen something purple hanging 35 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: around one of those mountains back there. So that you 36 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: were using their binoculars to see if, maybe, just maybe 37 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 1: they could find a clue. Carter jumped off from the 38 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 1: swing and flew through the air and landed in the 39 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: grass right next to Ava. All right, Ava, it's my turn. 40 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: Wait hold on a second, hold on, go wait, Carter, 41 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: come here, come here, come, come, look At this, Ava 42 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: handed Carter the binoculars and pointed as she was jumping 43 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: up and down, and she was pointing, but it's kind 44 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: of hard to tell where she was pointing because she 45 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 1: was jumping up and down. And finally Carter saw it. 46 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: He saw what she was so excited about. Is that 47 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: a cave? Said Carter. I'm pretty sure it is, said Ava. 48 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: We've got to go check it out. Not another second 49 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: passed by before Carter and Ava were both ray seeing 50 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: to their bedrooms to grab their jet pack and all 51 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: their spy here. They put on their jet packs and 52 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 1: off they blasted. Carter and Ava had both become expert 53 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: jet pack drivers. They knew how to stay really low 54 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: to the ground, almost zooming in between the branches of 55 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: the trees as they zoomed through the forest towards this mountain. 56 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: When you're zooming through the trees and the branches like that, 57 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 1: it's really hard for you know, a blimp up in 58 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: the sky to spot you from far away. But Carter 59 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: and Ava they were really good at basically staying invisible 60 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: as they fly through the forest. Ava was the first 61 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: one to get to the hillside and carefully landed on 62 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: some rocks. All right, Carter, get down, Get downe I 63 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: think the cave is right up there. She pointed up ahead, 64 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: and Carter nodded. Yep. I'm pretty sure you're right, said Carter. 65 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: They turned off their jet packs because they were going 66 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: to walk the rest of the way. I wanted to 67 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: sneak up on that cave just in case there were 68 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: some purple ninjas inside. They were very good to avoid 69 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: walking on sticks in crunchy rocks along the way because 70 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 1: one big step with a crunch that gives us spies 71 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: position away for everyone in the area. So when you're 72 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: on a spy mission, you have to know how to 73 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:27,239 Speaker 1: walk very quietly and slowly, but also fast but slowly 74 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: and quietly. It's kind of complicated, but if you practice, 75 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: you'll get it. Carter's stomach began to rumble. Sh Carter, 76 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: tell your stomach to quiet down, whispered Ava. I'm sorry, 77 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: said Carter. I'm just really hungry. I can't stop thinking 78 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: a cupcakes. I don't know why, but it's all I 79 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: can think about right now, and my stomach gets just 80 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: keeps grumbling. Okay, well we're getting closer. Just tell your 81 00:04:55,480 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: stomach to stop making so much noise, whispered Ava. Two 82 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: of them finally pulled their way up and got right 83 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 1: in front to the entrance of the cave. They couldn't 84 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 1: believe it. The entrance of the cave was it's a 85 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: pretty big actually, it was hidden behind some trees. That's 86 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: why no one had ever really seen it before, or 87 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 1: so they thought. Carter and Ava walked inside of the 88 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: cave and they grabbed their flashlights out of their packs 89 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 1: and shown it around. They couldn't believe their eyes. Ava, 90 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: are you seeing what I'm seeing? Are those real crystals? 91 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: Shouted Carter. S we gotta stay quiet, but yes, they 92 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 1: look like real crystals. I think we found some kind 93 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: of real crystal cave, whispered Ava. Holy smokes, they just 94 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: found a crystal cave. WHOA, that's amazing. Have you ever 95 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: found a crystal cave before? I know I definitely have not. 96 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: This is absolutely remarkable. But unfortunately they are not the 97 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: first ones to find this cave. Ava, come over here, 98 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: said Carter. It looks like I can just pull off 99 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: a piece of the crystal. Look at this. Carter was right. 100 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: The walls were covered completely covered in crystals that were 101 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: poking out of the wall almost like little fingers. It's 102 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 1: like he could walk up and just pick one up. 103 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: Carter reached over and grabbed one of the crystals, and 104 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: it popped right off the wall as soon as it 105 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: touched his hand. They couldn't believe it. It transformed not 106 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: into a crystal, but into a cupcake. Carter, How did 107 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: you do that? Said Ava. Carter's eyes got g enormous. 108 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: He didn't know how it happened, but he finally got 109 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: the delicious cupcake that he had been dreaming of home. 110 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 1: He gobbled it up in one giant bite. Ava, that 111 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,359 Speaker 1: was the best cupcake I've ever had. What in the 112 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: world just happened, said Carter. I don't know, said Eva, 113 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: but it's almost like the crystal knew that you wanted 114 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: a cupcake, and then it turned right into what you 115 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,239 Speaker 1: were thinking about. Let me try. Ava reached over, grabbed 116 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: crystal and pulled it off the wall, and immediately it 117 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: turned into a giant bouquet of cotton candy. That's what 118 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: I was thinking about. Ava couldn't contain herself and gobbled 119 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: up the entire thing of cotton candy. Holy smokes, they 120 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: have just found like the coal is place in the 121 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: world I have got to know where this cave is. 122 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: If you walked into this cave and could pick up 123 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: crystal and it would turn into anything that you thought about, 124 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: what would your crystal turn into? H M, well, now 125 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: that my mind is thinking just about cupcakes and cotton candy, 126 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: that might be exactly what I pick. But it was 127 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: just then that they heard another voice. Alright, guys, Ace sorry, 128 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: I have to run back to the blamp real quick 129 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: to get a banker bucket so that we can collect 130 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: some more on these crystals. H do you guys want 131 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: to come in? Oh? Shure, yeah, I'll come with you 132 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: and help you. Carter and Ava dove behind a big rock. 133 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: Did you hear that? Carter? Of course I did. What 134 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: do we do? Oh? No? Carter and Ava have just 135 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: covered a pretty amazing cave, But it's the Purple Ninjas 136 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,839 Speaker 1: that have already gotten there first. When are they going 137 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: to be able to escape without getting captured by Purple Ninjas? 138 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: And to have the Purple Ninjas just discovered something that 139 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: can give them the ultimate power they need to take 140 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: over the world.
