It's raining outside and I 17 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: don't know what to do, said Josh. How about you 18 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: guys help me clean out the attic today, said one 19 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: of their parents. 20 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 2: What that place is disgusting. 21 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: Said janwy Ah, it's so like spiders up there in cobwebs. 22 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 2: Ooh, Joshtin liked the idea either. 23 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,039 Speaker 1: No, seriously, we really need to clean up the attic 24 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: up there, and I could really use the help. Janwy 25 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: and Josh looked at each other and they realized that 26 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: they didn't have anything else better to do, so okay, 27 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: they ran back up to their rooms to change into 28 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: some clothes that could get a little dusty, because, yeah, 29 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 1: the attic of a house is usually pretty dusty and dirty. 30 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: Have you ever been in an attic before? Sometimes it 31 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: could feel a little scary, but there are oftentimes some 32 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: pretty cool treasures up there that you had no idea 33 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: that it was even there. I remember when I I 34 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: was a kid that when I would go in my parents' 35 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: attic or in the basement, we would find things from 36 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: a very long time ago. I wonder what Janui and 37 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: Josh are gonna find up there. As they pulled the 38 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: ladder down from the ceiling, Josh was met by a 39 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: big burst of dust and cobwebs. 40 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 2: Ah, it's all over my hair. 41 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 3: Oh. 42 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 1: Josh ran to the bathroom to wash his face off 43 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: from all that big mess. Januy was the first one 44 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: to start climbing up the ladder into the attic. Eh, 45 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: it's so dark up here. 46 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 2: How do you turn the lights on? Said Januy. 47 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: Oh, just there's a light hanging around there. Somewhere and 48 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: with a long string, said one of her parents. Oh, 49 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: here it is. As she pulled the string, the light 50 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: came on and instantly lit up the entire attic. 51 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 3: Whoa. 52 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: As she looked around the attic, it was surrounded by 53 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 1: boxes and really old things. You see, I think their 54 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: grandparents used to live in this house a long time ago, 55 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: and it's hardly ever been touched. All right, finally got 56 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 1: that stuff out of my hair, said Josh as he 57 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 1: poked his head up into the attic. He was still 58 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: standing on the ladder because he was a little afraid 59 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,679 Speaker 1: of being greeted by more cobwebs and dust. All right, 60 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: I think the bad part is over, said Josh. Yeah, Josh, 61 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: thanks for cleaning in this whole place. Off with your head, 62 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: said Janey. Hey mom, what do you want us to 63 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: do up here? Shouted Janemy. Why don't you guys first 64 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: just take a look around and see if you guys 65 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: find anything cool. We're gonna be going through and getting 66 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: rid of a lot of stuff, but I'll be up 67 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: there in about five minutes, so just explore a little bit, 68 00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: said their mom. All right, which one should we open first? 69 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: Said Josh. Uh, let's do that one over there? Januiy 70 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: grabbed a box and pulled it down and they opened 71 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 1: it up inside and it was full of old decorations 72 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: from different holidays. Wow, look at all this stuff. I 73 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: haven't even seen this before. Probably doesn't even work, said Josh. 74 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: They closed that box and moved on to the next one. 75 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 1: All right, I picked that one. Josh pulled the box 76 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: down and opened it up. It was full of really 77 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: old pictures of their family from a long time ago. Wait, hey, Josh, 78 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: what's that over there? Said januy uh Like, what are 79 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:43,239 Speaker 1: you talking about? 80 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 2: Said Josh. 81 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: Look over there, there's something glowing. She was pointing behind 82 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: the boxes they had just moved that there. It looked 83 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: like there was something glowing back there. Josh bent down 84 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: over the boxes and leaned back to the other side 85 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: and reached down and oh, it's a book. 86 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 2: Look at this. 87 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: They pulled the book out and it was very dusty. 88 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: Why do I always find all the dust? Said Josh. 89 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: All right, hand it here like, set it down on 90 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: the table. Looks really old and really cool, and it's glowing. 91 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: The cover of the book it did have something on 92 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: it that was glowing. They weren't sure exactly what it was. 93 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: It kind of looked like like glitter would sparkle in 94 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: a light, but it wasn't reflecting light. It was creating 95 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: the light, which I've never seen a book do that before. 96 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 1: Januy carefully opened up the book and read its first line. 97 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 1: Welcome to the fantasy world where everything you imagine is real, 98 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: said Janey. To enter, introduce yourself. What does that mean, 99 00:05:55,720 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: said Janue. Oh, it probably means like you need to say, like, hello, 100 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: my name is Josh, and then you can start the book. Wait, 101 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 1: what's happening. As soon as Josh introduced himself, his body 102 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 1: started to fall into the book. Inside he is being 103 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: sucked into the book, Josh, Wait, hold on. Januy was 104 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: trying to reach for Josh, but it was too late. 105 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: He got immediately sucked into the book. 106 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 2: Wait. 107 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: Hello, my name's Janwi. She had to go save her brother. Wait, 108 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: I gotta tell my mom. Wait raw, Janui and Josh 109 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: had suddenly gotten sucked inside of this book. Wait a second, 110 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 1: What in the world kind of book is that said? 111 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 1: Welcome to the fantasy world where everything you imagine is real. 112 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: And I think they're going inside of that fantasy world. 113 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 2: Well far up. 114 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: Above in the Sky was an evil doctor. W h 115 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 1: oh oh oh, Purple Ninjas, I think we had just 116 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: found that magical book.

But as soon as 119 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: someone enters through the book after they say that magic phrase, 120 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: it sends out some kind of beacon and that was 121 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: an alarm for doctor Stinky Breath. 122 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 3: Oh yes, boss, I see that report.
