00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: you guys ready for today's adventure? Me too? Let's go?

10
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: Hois the sails, shouted Alex as Tommy grabbed onto some

11
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 1: rope and pulled it with all of his might and

12
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: the sale went flying up into the air. Alex and Tommy,

13
00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 1: we're on a ginormous sail boat sailing through the ocean

14
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 1: on not your very average boating cruise. See, they were

15
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: on the hunt for a treasure island. Yes, a real

16
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: island with real treasure. They had found an old map

17
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: in their parents' attic and they had followed this map

18
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 1: for many, many weeks, and it had led them on

19
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 1: this boating sailing adventure across the ocean looking for a

20
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: very old remote island. Wow, the weather today is totally perfect,

21
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: said Tommy. Do you think you were actually gonna find

22
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: this island or is it all just a big trick? Oh? No,

23
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a trick, said Alex. Everything has

24
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,279
Speaker 1: been right along the way ever since we found that map,

25
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: Every clue has led us to the next place. So

26
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: this island's gotta be real. You see, they had worked

27
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: really following all the clues along the way. If you

28
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: found a treasure map, do you think you would follow

29
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 1: all the clues along the way to see if it

30
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: was real? Yeah? But what if it was really hard?

31
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: What if the clues felt impossible? Do you think you'd

32
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: give up? Oh? No way, If that is a real

33
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: treasure map, I don't think there's anything that could stop

34
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:30,679
Speaker 1: me from following those clues. What about you. I think

35
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: I need to lay down for a little bit, said Alex.

36
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 1: Do you mind keeping a lookout? I sure will, said Tommy.

37
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 1: Alex went down to lay down, and Tommy grabbed some

38
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: binoculars to keep an eye on the horizon. You see,

39
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: they were sailing in the middle of the ocean, so

40
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 1: it looked like they were completely surrounded while they were

41
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 1: actually completely surrounded by water. After a few hours, Tommy

42
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: finally saw something. Alex, get back up here, look at that.

43
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: He was pointing towards the east. And they couldn't believe it.

44
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: They had found the real Treasure Island from the map.

45
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: We did it, shouted Alex and Tommy, as they were

46
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: jumping around the sailboat like two very excited kids, which

47
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: that's exactly what they were. It did not take long

48
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: before their sailboat reached the island. They dropped an anchor

49
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: into the water and were about to jump out to

50
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: start swimming to the island when Tommy saw something in

51
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: the distance. Wait a second, Alex, look over there, that

52
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: is a really big ship. You're right in its waving

53
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 1: a big black flag. You don't think that's a real

54
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 1: pirate ship, do you. Oh, it couldn't be. There aren't

55
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: any real pirates around anymore. They all died a long

56
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: long time ago, said Tommy. But unfortunately for Alex and Tommy,

57
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: that was actually a real pirate ship. They dove and

58
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: splashed and swam all the way to the island from

59
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: their boat that had been anchored offshore. All right, now,

60
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: what do we do? How do we follow the next clue,

61
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: Tommy pulled out the map and opened it up. Alex

62
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: scanned it with his finger, running back and forth across

63
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: the page. Looks like we're looking for three large stones,

64
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: all next to each other, and then I think the

65
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 1: middle one is is it should have an X on it?

66
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: Come on. Thankfully, this island was not very large, so

67
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: Alex and Tommy were able to run across the whole

68
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 1: island back and forth pretty quickly until they found it. Tommy,

69
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: look over here, said Alex. Look at that one, two three,

70
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: that one as an X. We found it, shouted Alex. Okay,

71
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: can you wait right here. I'm gonna run back to

72
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: this ship and grab a shovel. I'll be right back,

73
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: said Tommy. As he ran back towards the boat. He

74
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: heard a voice.

75
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 2: So the captain wants us to check out this island

76
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 2: for any ghosts.

77
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: Right, that's what he said. He said, he doesn't well,

78
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 1: you know, he doesn't like ghosts, and so if we're

79
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 1: gonna find this treasure, it better not be a ghost treasure.

80
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got a thing for a ghosts. All right,

81
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 2: this island looks pretty small. We shall be able to

82
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 2: cover it pretty quickly.

83
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: Come on. Tommy dove down behind some bushes. Those were

84
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 1: real pirates. He didn't know what to do. Should he

85
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: run back and get the shovel or run back and

86
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 1: tell Alex to hide. I don't think now's a good

87
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: time to get a shovel. He needs to tell Alex

88
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 1: to hide. As he ran back towards Alex, Alex, Alex,

89
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:04,239
Speaker 1: what's going on? And sh said Tommy, there's pirates there.

90
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: We got a hide fast. Are you kidding me? Said Alex. Thankfully,

91
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: they were able to find somewhere to hide very close by,

92
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: and as Alex and Tommy both dove underneath all these bushes,

93
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: they heard the pirates walking around.

94
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 2: All right, well, I'm pretty sure there's no ghosts here.

95
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 2: Let's get back to the ship and tell the captain

96
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 2: that it's safe to come.

97
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: Okioki, Let's let's go. The pirates turned around and were

98
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 1: headed back towards the beach. They had brought this little

99
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: boat that they had rowed all the way from their

100
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: big ship. They got into that boat and started rowing

101
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 1: away towards their ginormous pirate ship. What do you mean

102
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: they're looking for ghosts or something, said Alex. Well, all

103
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 1: I heard was at the captain, whoever that is, he's

104
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,039
Speaker 1: afraid of ghosts, and so they're looking for treasure, but

105
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: they don't want ghost treasure, and so they're gotta steal

106
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 1: our treasure before we can get it. What do we

107
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: gonna do, shouted Tommy. Well, first we gotta call them down,

108
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: and second, said Alex, I think we need to become ghosts.

109
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: What do you mean, well, huh, make a spooky sound

110
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: or something. I don't know. We gotta think fast, said Alex.

111
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: Tommy and Alex were onto something. Maybe, just maybe they

112
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: could scare these pirates away if they acted like real ghosts.

113
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: Do you know how to make a ghost sound? Well,

114
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if Alex and Tommy have practiced that

115
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 1: very much. They found some places to hide. They climbed

116
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: up these tall trees that would basically make them invisible.

117
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: There were so many leaves that the pirates standing from

118
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: the ground looking up, they wouldn't see anything. But maybe

119
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: they could make some really creepy noises off in the

120
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 1: distance they could hear the pirates back on shore.

121
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 2: All right, man, it looks like this is the place,

122
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 2: So you can guarantee me that there are no ghosts.

123
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: On this island.

124
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 2: Well, buss, we we walked all the way over there there. Yep,

125
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 2: we did see anything, and so we're pretty sure it's safe.

126
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: All right, Well, let's get treasure finding. All the pirates

127
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: had brought lots of shovels, and I'm not sure if

128
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 1: they knew exactly what they were looking for, but they

129
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 1: just started digging all over the island. The two boys

130
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:44,079
Speaker 1: were waiting, waiting for that captain to come close enough

131
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 1: to where they could scare him. All right, I think

132
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 1: he's close enough, Tommy, Let's give it our best shot.

133
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: What was that? Said the captain as he froze and

134
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: swiveled his head back and forth. I think I heard

135
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: something of a crew. Are you tricking me? I just

136
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 1: heard a ghost.

137
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 2: There's no way there's a ghost. This is an abandoned island.

138
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 2: Don't worry about it.

139
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 1: Said one of the pirates. Alex and Tommy thought it

140
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: was absolutely hilarious, then to hold in their laughs before

141
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 1: they did it one more time. There's definitely a ghost

142
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: guarding his treasure. Back to the shipman, this is not

143
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: worth it. Run for your life. As the pirates all

144
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 1: ran back to their little boats, they rowed as fast

145
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 1: as they could to escape from this very scary island

146
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: full of nothing but Alex and Tommy giggling their way

147
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: as they slid back down from the tree. It was

148
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: not long before that pirate ship vanished over the horizon.

149
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 1: Those pirates were very afraid of treasure ghosts. Alex and

150
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: Tommy made their way back to the ship and grabbed

151
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 1: a shovel. They didn't know which part would be the

152
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: most amazing story to tell all their friends, the part

153
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: of finding buried treasure or scaring away real pirates with

154
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: ghost sounds well. Even though this is the end of

155
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 1: their treasure hunting story, this is only just the beginning
