Wait what me too? 11 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 1: Let go. One day, Jasper was at home reading a 12 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:50,840 Speaker 1: story about a magical mountain. It was a fascinating story 13 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: that there's no way it's true, but this magical mountain, 14 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 1: Jasper was reading that like new creatures would just suddenly 15 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: appear on this mountain. New creatures that had never been 16 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: seen anywhere else in the whole white world before just 17 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: appear on this mountain. And the legends said that there 18 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: was some creature on the top of the mountain that 19 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: was the one that was creating all these new animals. 20 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 1: After he read all the pages, he saw on the 21 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: back of the book, there was a map. This map 22 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: looked really old, but it even looked kind of familiar. 23 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 1: Wait a second, I know where those forests and those 24 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: mountains are. What is that? Whoa in the middle of 25 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: the map was this big, tall, shiny mountain. I think 26 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: that is the mountain that the story was about. But 27 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: it's just the legend, right, Legends usually aren't real. But 28 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: this map looks very familiar. It looks like my backyard 29 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: almost right there. And sure enough, this map was a 30 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: real drawing of where his house was and all around it. 31 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: Wait a second, could that mean that the legend is 32 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:10,919 Speaker 1: actually true? Well, I guess I gotta find it out 33 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: for myself, said Jasper. So he put on his hiking 34 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: boots and grabbed some hiking gear and his walking stick 35 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: because you always need a walking stick when you go hiking. Right, 36 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: and off he went. He brought the book with him 37 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 1: so that the map would lead him to the right place. 38 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 1: There is a lot of hiking that he needed to 39 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: do to get to that special shiny mountain on the map. 40 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: Even if the story was just the legend and not true, 41 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: he knew that it would be a fun adventure regardless. 42 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,359 Speaker 1: As he started hiking towards the mountain, he started hearing 43 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: a strange creature sound. Blah blah, what was that? As 44 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: Jasper was looking around, he realized that he had never 45 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: been in this part of the forest by his house 46 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: and was starting to get extra sparkly. Wait a second, 47 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: the sparkly mountain on the map is that real? 48 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 2: Like? 49 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: The dirt was definitely sparkly. And wait, hold on, oh 50 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: that sound lah lah. As he looked all around trying 51 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: to find the source of that sound, there it was. 52 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: It was sitting up on a tree branch not that 53 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: far away, and it looked like holy smokes, it looks 54 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: like a frog with wings, or like an owl frog 55 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: or a frog owl? What in the world? Ah. The 56 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: creature then swooped off with his big wings and flew away. 57 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, Jasper rubbed his eyes. Oh I must 58 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: be seeing things that that couldn't have been real, or 59 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: was it. As Jasper continued hiking up the mountain, he 60 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: just couldn't stop thinking about that really weird frog owl 61 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: that he saw. Have you ever seen a frog owl before? 62 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: I don't think those are real. Now now, oh, that 63 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: sounds like a cat, said Jasper as he kept walking 64 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: up the trail, he turned and looked, and oh, oh 65 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: my no, that was not a cat. That looks like 66 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: a reindeer. Now now, but that reindeer has the face 67 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: of a cat. I am, I am, I losing my mind. 68 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: Jasper closed his eyes and shook his head, rubbed his eyes, 69 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 1: and opened one of his eyes to see if it 70 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: was still there. And sure enough, that creature was still 71 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: standing in the middle of the trail, just in front 72 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: of him, staring right back, me owing, now now, and 73 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 1: off it ran. Wait a second, I wonder if this 74 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: legend is actually real. Jasper opened up the book and 75 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: flipped through the pages and look right there, look at 76 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 1: those creatures. The the creatures in the book that said 77 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: that came from this mountain were a mixture of animals 78 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 1: kind of just like the ones that he saw, A frog, owl, 79 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: and a cat, reindeer. Whoa could this actually be real? 80 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: As he was following the map, it took him on 81 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: a windy, windy road all the way to the top. 82 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: And the further up the road he went, the more 83 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: sparklier the dirt got. Have you ever seen sparkly dirt? 84 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: I haven't either. That definitely does not sound normal. So 85 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 1: wait a second, This magical mountain is sounding realer and realer, 86 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: and that legend I think is about to come very 87 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: very true. Just then, Jasper appeared at the top of 88 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 1: the mountain. He had come through all the trees and 89 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: there was a big flat spot on the top of 90 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: the mountain. It was very windy at the top of 91 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: the mountain. He could feel that cool breeze flowing through 92 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 1: his hair as he looked around. Had to squint his 93 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: eyes because it was really windy. He looked all around 94 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: and there wasn't anything anywhere except a couple buckets of paint. Wait, 95 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: what is what is that doing here? He thought to himself. 96 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: Look at this, there's red and yellow, orange, and green, blue, purple, 97 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:30,679 Speaker 1: every color. You need to back away from my paint. 98 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: Don't touch it, or else I will nibble on your toes. 99 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 1: Jasper jumped up and ran back to where the trees were. 100 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: What on earth kind of creature was that? How in 101 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: the world did you find me up here? Said the 102 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 1: mysterious voice. Jasper came out with his hands up. I'm sorry, 103 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 1: and he raised the book over his head. I was 104 00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: following this book. The book had a map, and there's 105 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: a legend of a creature that is somehow creates like 106 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,479 Speaker 1: new creatures, and I think I've seen some of them. 107 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: Are you the creature that does this? He shouted, And 108 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: just like that, a tiny little chipmunk crawled out from 109 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: behind some rocks. Why, of course it's me. This is 110 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: my mountain, and that's all of my paint. You see, 111 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: I've been working on a lot of new projects and 112 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: I don't want anyone to mess it up, and I 113 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: don't want you to touch my paint. Jasper couldn't believe it. 114 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: The legend of the story was true. Wait, you mean 115 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: that frog owl and the cat reindeer that I saw 116 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: that came from you? Of course it did, you see? I? Well, 117 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: I can't tell. Uh. You have to promise and not 118 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: tell anybody, because then everyone will want to steal my paint. 119 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: But see over here, there's this rock, this big, big rock, 120 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: and for some reason, whatever I paint on this rock 121 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: comes alive. I can't explain it, but I've been doing 122 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: it for a very long time, my whole life even, 123 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: and I've made some pretty cool creatures. Wow, Jasper couldn't 124 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: believe it. Do you think I could try? Ah? No 125 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: one has ever touched my paint before. But well, uh, 126 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: I don't see why not. Just be very careful and 127 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: don't draw anything super dangerous because I just don't like 128 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: dangerous things. I only like nice things, said the chipmunk. 129 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: If you could paint any creature that would come alive, 130 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: what would you pick? I would love to see it. 131 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: I would love to see you draw a picture of 132 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 1: an imaginative animal, of maybe combining two different animals into one, 133 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: and you can send it to me on kid short Stories, 134 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: our Instagram page. I'd love to see that. 135 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 2: Well. 136 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: As Jasper started to think to himself what two creatures 137 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: might be fun to put together, he grabbed a paint 138 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: brush and started to paint. Oh wow, I've never done 139 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: one like that before. That's pretty cool, said the chipmunk, 140 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: And there Jasper finished. It was an amazing work of art. 141 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: It was a bird, bunny or a bunny bird, but 142 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: it was a bunny with wings. And just like that, 143 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: as he finished the drawing, it popped off of the 144 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: rock and the paint turned to a real bunny bird. Wow, 145 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: that is pretty cool. All right, mister chipmunk, I have 146 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: to head back home, but thanks for sharing your paint 147 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 1: with me. And showing me all this cool stuff. Okay, 148 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: well ah bye, and Jasper started heading home and he 149 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 1: couldn't wait to tell his family about what an amazing 150 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: adventure he'd been on the end.
