Me too? Let's go. Tristan Tristan, wake up. 8 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 1: It's time to go, said Irie. Irie and Tristan. We're 9 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 1: both waking up. Well. I guess Irie had already woken up, 10 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: but Tristan slept a little longer. Do you sometimes sleep long? 11 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: Are you the first one to wake up in your family? 12 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: I kind of like to sleep a long time, and 13 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: I think Tristan does too well. I ree interesting. Today 14 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 1: was a big day for them. They were going crystal hunting. 15 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: Have you ever found a crystal before? Yeah, it's those 16 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: really cool rocks that are extra shiny. Sometimes they're black 17 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 1: and shiny, or maybe they're clear, or they come in 18 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 1: all different kinds of colors. But crystals are really fun 19 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 1: to find, and they love to go exploring for crystals 20 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: down by a river near their house. And today their 21 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: family was going to spend the day by the river, 22 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: which meant it was a crystal hunt day. All right, 23 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 1: let's get all of our stuff, said Irie. I got 24 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: the bucket and the net. What do you do You 25 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: have everything else, said Tristan. Yep, here it is Irie. 26 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: In Tristan had all the gear that they needed to 27 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: collect all the crystals. It's fun to sort through the sand, 28 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: in the rocks and all that stuff in the river 29 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: and then pick out all the different crystals along the way. 30 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: And then they would bring them home and put them 31 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: in their little crystal garden. Yeah, they had something in 32 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 1: the backyard where they would put all their crystals in 33 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: a special place, and that was called their crystal garden. 34 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: Do you have one of those? Yeah, maybe today we 35 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,119 Speaker 1: could build one, or maybe tomorrow. But crystal gardens are 36 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:27,239 Speaker 1: really fun to make. And as they finished their breakfast 37 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: and gobbled it all up, it was their favorite pancakes 38 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: and waffles delicious. As they finished their breakfasts and got 39 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: in the car, their family drove to the river beach. 40 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: It was not that long of a drive, and so 41 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: on the way there they listened to some stories in 42 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: the car. Do you guys ever listen to stories in 43 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 1: the car. Yeah, that's a really fun place to do that. 44 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: It makes the car drives go way faster. As they 45 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: arrived at the river, they jumped out and eagerly jumped 46 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: and splashed right into the river. They both wore their 47 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: swimsuits so that they could get nice and wet. It 48 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: was a nice hot days. It was fun to splash 49 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: around in the river. But as they started to look 50 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 1: for crystals, they found so many of many different colors. Wow, 51 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: look at this one, said Tristan. Whoa, it was yellow 52 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: with red spots. That's a really cool one. Oh, look 53 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: at this one. I re pulled a whole handful of 54 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: white and black crystals out of the water. They were beautiful. 55 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: But then something amazing happened. Whoa, Tristan, check this one out. 56 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: It was one that they've never seen before. It was 57 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: almost like it was polished, super smooth and super shiny, 58 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: and it was like a rainbow. It had every color 59 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: like if you held it in different directions in the sunlight, 60 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: it changed to all different colors. It was amazing. And 61 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: there was a second one. There were two of them, 62 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 1: like right next to each other, and both of them 63 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: picked up the crystals, and they each put one in 64 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: each pocket. Tristan put it in his right pocket and 65 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: I Rey put it in the left pocket, and all 66 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 1: of a sudden, something crazy happened. They began to feel 67 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: a little tingly on their body and whoa, whoa, what's happening? 68 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: And all of a sudden they both had two wings 69 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:47,359 Speaker 1: pop out of their backs. What's going on? Shouted Tristan. 70 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: They looked at each other and couldn't believe it. They 71 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: had now turned into some kind of fairy. They were 72 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: still normal size, but they had wings. This is so cool. 73 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: Let's see if they work. They started to flap their 74 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: wings and immediately they flew right into the sky. Whoa, 75 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: Irie interest In. Both could not believe it. I think 76 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: these crystals were some kind of magical crystal that they 77 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: had found in the river, and it turned them into 78 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 1: some kind of faery. WHOA, that is pretty cool. I've 79 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: never found a crystal like that before. Help help, Irene 80 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: interest In. Both heard somebody crying for help. Oh, let's go, 81 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: let's go help them. It was just further down the 82 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: river and around a bend that this cry for help 83 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: was coming from. And they flew down and started to shout, 84 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: who needs help? Where are you? I'm over here. The 85 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: cry for help was coming from inside of a tree, 86 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: like on a branch. It was a baby bird. Help help. 87 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: Wait a second, Tristan, is that a bird that we're 88 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 1: hearing and cry for help? Not only did this crystal 89 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: give them wings that they could fly like a fairy, 90 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: but it also gave them animal listening powers. They could 91 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: now understand and talk to animals. Help me, I was 92 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: trying to learn how to fly, but I don't know yet, 93 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: said the baby bird. And now I'm so scared and 94 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: I'm stuck on this branch and I need to get down. Help. Okay, 95 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 1: we'll come help you. Tristan flew over and I ree 96 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: interest in. Both carefully brought the bird back down to 97 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: the ground. Oh, thank you so much, and the little 98 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: bird hopped away. Whoa irie? Is this for real? Said Tristan. 99 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: I don't understand what happened, but I think the crystals 100 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: have crazy powers. Not only can we fly, but we 101 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: can also talk to animals. As they pulled the crystals 102 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: out of their pockets, instantly the wings vanished. Oh look 103 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: at that. When we put these inner pockets, that's when 104 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: the powers turn on. We have to show our parents. 105 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: This is so cool. They ran back over to where 106 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: their family was at the river beach, and their families 107 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: just could not even comprehend and understand what was going on. 108 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: But as soon as they put those special crystals back 109 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: in their pockets, the wings popped back out. This was 110 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: just the beginning. You see, you've always heard me talk 111 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: about the Animal Rescue Team, right, Well, this was the 112 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: day that Irie and Tristan officially joined the Animal Rescue Team. 113 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: This is a very important team that says animals all 114 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: around the world, and you always need a special power. 115 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: Some can talk to animals, some are extra brave, and 116 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: others like Irie and Tristan, I guess, can turn into 117 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: some kind of flying fairy. But we just have to 118 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: make sure that that crystal stays safe with them. We 119 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: don't want it to fall into the wrong hands. Well, 120 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: my friends, that is the end of the story, but 121 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: the beginning of an amazing adventure of Irie in Tristan. 122 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: The end. Wow, that was an awesome adventure, right man, 123 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 1: I wish I could find some cool crystals like them.
