00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 1: Welcome back to kids short Stories. Today's story is called

2
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: Benny Stops the Purple Ninjas. See you later, guys, said

3
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: Benny as he got off the school bus. It was

4
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: a beautiful day and school had just ended in Benny

5
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 1: got off the bus. He was excited to go inside

6
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 1: and hang out with his spy partner, Letti, the Leper

7
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: getto As he walked inside, Letti met him at the door. Benny,

8
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: you won't believe what happened. What what happened? Benny said.

9
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: You said, we got this secret message from the mayor

10
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: and he needs her help. Benny said, Okay, what do

11
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: we need to do. The message says that there's purple

12
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: Ninja's that had just come into town last night and

13
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: they did something terrible and the mayor just needs to

14
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: see you. So hurry go. I'll stay here, all right,

15
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 1: Benny said. So Benny raced down to city Hall to

16
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: meet with the mayor. Leppie was staying at the house

17
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: headquarters to help Benny from there. So Benny got to

18
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: town Hall and asked to speak to the mayor and

19
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,919
Speaker 1: they let him right in and the mayor said, Benny,

20
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,919
Speaker 1: I'm so glad you made it. You see the Purple

21
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:47,040
Speaker 1: Ninjas came last night and they did something terrible. You see,

22
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: the Purple Ninjas, Benny had heard a lot about them,

23
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: but he never met them before. Purple Ninjas were known

24
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: for going to a city and and picking one thing

25
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: that they really wanted and taking all of it from everyone.

26
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, that's bad, Benny said, what what did

27
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: they take this time? The mayor said, you won't believe it,

28
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: but they took everything from the donuts stores, all the donuts,

29
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: every single one the donuts. Benny really liked donuts, so

30
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: he took this personally. Oh, I can't let those purple

31
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: Ninjas get away with this. We gotta stop him. Thank you, Mayor.

32
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: I'll get on it right away. So as Benny left,

33
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 1: he started to think of all those delicious donuts that

34
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: he might never be able to eat again. Oh, the

35
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: cream filled ones and the sprinkles and the chocolate. Oh

36
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: they're so good. Okay, he's got to stop thinking about

37
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: donuts because that's just not gonna help. He needs to

38
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: focus on finding clues to catch the purple Ninjas. All right.

39
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: The first place, let's go to the donuts store, done

40
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 1: Dune Downe and so Benny raced down the street to

41
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: the donuts store and walked right in and sure enough

42
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: everything was missing, no donuts there, and he asked the

43
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 1: donut cook, Mr Donutman, what happened? And the donutman he

44
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: was sitting behind the cabinets and sitting on the floor crying.

45
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: He said, who is night? No purple nanjas? He stuck

46
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 1: on my donut. Benny had never seen an adult, a

47
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,119
Speaker 1: grown up cry about donuts before. It's kind of funny,

48
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: but he knew donuts were really important. So he said,

49
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: Mr donut Man, it's gonna be okay. We're gonna get

50
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,119
Speaker 1: your donuts back, but I need to know what happened.

51
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: And he said, okay, you see, last night was just

52
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 1: like a normal night. I locked it up and the

53
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: donuts okay, Mr Dornman, okay, I really need you to focus.

54
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: Please don't cry, Just tell me what happened. And the

55
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: doorman couldn't stop crying, and so he just pointed to

56
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:48,239
Speaker 1: a screen over there and it looked like, oh, there's

57
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: their security cameras in the video from last night, so

58
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: I guess. But donut Man, he couldn't stop crying, and

59
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: so he just wanted me to watch the video. And

60
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 1: so as Benny watched the video yo of the security

61
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 1: cameras from last night, he saw, sure enough, Oh my gosh,

62
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 1: purple ninjas dropped out of the ceiling. What there's not

63
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 1: even a door. There's not even but how did they

64
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 1: come from the ceiling? And they dropped from the ceiling

65
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: right on all the donuts. They had a donut vacuum

66
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: and they sucked them all up into a giant bag.

67
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 1: Oh man, I wish I had a donut vacuum. Actually,

68
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 1: I wish I had a donut bag full of donuts. Okay,

69
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 1: I gotta stop thinking about donuts. Oh do you ever

70
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:45,359
Speaker 1: find it hard to stop thinking about donuts? I definitely do.

71
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 1: I like donuts. What's your favorite donut? I love sprinkles

72
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: on chocolate donuts. Don't or a cream Anyway, enough about donuts.

73
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: So Benny he it looked up at the ceiling and

74
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: sure enough, there wasn't a door, but there were purple

75
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:15,159
Speaker 1: footprints on the ceiling. What could those be from? Huh?

76
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. The purple footprints went across the whole

77
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: ceiling over to the window. Oh my gosh, can purple

78
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: ninjas climb on the ceiling. Can they do that? What?

79
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 1: That's crazy? And so he looked out the window and

80
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 1: sure enough there was a trail of purple footprints. Should

81
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 1: he follow them? Definitely? You got it, so Benny said,

82
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 1: by to the donutman who is still sitting on the

83
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: floor crying, and raced out the door around to the

84
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: back of the building where the window was. Sure enough,

85
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: there was a trail of purple footprints. It's funny, he

86
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,559
Speaker 1: doesn't remember. Purple Ninja is always leaving purple footprints wherever

87
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: they go. Huh. Interesting. And so as he followed the

88
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: footprints all the way into the forest into a special

89
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:24,119
Speaker 1: secret what is the hat? He said, Look, it looks

90
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: like a tree, But the footprints just stopped right in

91
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: front of this giant tree. He got closer and there

92
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: was a little hole on the tree and he it

93
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 1: kind of looked like a button, so he pushed it

94
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: and there was a door on the tree and it opened.

95
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I think I think we're getting closer,

96
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: said Benny, and he radioed back to Lept who is

97
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: back at HQ. Said LT, I think I found where

98
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 1: the Purple Ninjas are. Like you, said Roger that as

99
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: Benny walked into the tree. He could smell donuts. He

100
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: must be getting closer, and there were more purple footprints.

101
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: M hm, what is he heard laughing down the stairs?

102
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: That was a weird laugh. Oh. Those that's not the

103
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 1: purple Ninjas. Those are the frogman and his team looks

104
00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 1: like the frog Have you ever heard of the frogman? Oh? Man, frogmen.

105
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: They're dangerous. They like to take things too, and it

106
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: looks like they painted themselves all in purple to look

107
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: like the Purple Ninjas. But that's why they could stick

108
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: on the ceiling there. It all makes sense. You see.

109
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,959
Speaker 1: Frogmen are just like frogs and have really sticky toes

110
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: and sticky feet, and they can climb up on walls.

111
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, this I need help for, Benny said,

112
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 1: And so he called his spy team, who raced over

113
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: to that secret tree in the forest and boom, just

114
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: like that, they blasted through the door and caught all

115
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: the frogmen. Yeah, the whole town's donuts were saved. Oh

116
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: my gosh. Benny was so happy to bring a big

117
00:09:55,400 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: pile of donuts back to the donutman store. Who oh nuts,

118
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:07,439
Speaker 1: the donut man said, I missed them so much. Uh,

119
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: what do you he's hugging the donuts. Benny was a

120
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:17,439
Speaker 1: little confused and looked around. I think I gotta go,

121
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,199
Speaker 1: and as he walked out, the donut man was still

122
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:28,679
Speaker 1: hugging all of his donuts. Benny raced back home to

123
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: see Lepine and let me meet him at the door.

124
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: Great job, Benny, let Be said, you saved all the donuts.

00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:46,000
