00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 1: this one? Me too, Let's go. Audrey and Liam had

10
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 1: just gotten home from a fun school trip to the beach.

11
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: Do you ever like going on field trips? Yeah, they're

12
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 1: so cool. You get to see all kinds of new

13
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 1: fun things to do and new places with your friends.

14
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 1: And they went to the beach today and had a blast.

15
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: And guess what. They found a bottle with a note

16
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 1: in side. And they brought it home with them and

17
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: they could not wait to open it up and look inside.

18
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 1: When they got home, they ran up to their room,

19
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: opened the bottle and pulled out the note. Liam was

20
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: so excited he said, Audrey, Audrey, what does this say?

21
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: What does it say? And Audrey opened it up and

22
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 1: laid it on one of their beds. It was a

23
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: treasure map. Oh my gosh, Audrey said, this looks really old.

24
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: It looks like it's been in that bottle for like

25
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:42,680
Speaker 1: a hundred years. Oh my gosh. They couldn't believe it.

26
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: It was a real treasure map. It looks like it

27
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: has clues on it and an X. Do you guys

28
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: know what the X means? Yeah? X marks the spot

29
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: that is where the treasure is. So Audrey and Liam

30
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: they knew that they had to go on this treasure

31
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: hunt to find whatever was at the X. But it

32
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: looked like there was some kind of message on there

33
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: that said that pirates put the treasure there. Oh my gosh.

34
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 1: Liam said, do you think pirates are gonna be trying

35
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:21,919
Speaker 1: to race us to get the treasure first? Yeah, that's

36
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: probably gonna happen. So we're definitely gonna bring our spy gear.

37
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: Audreyan Liam run the Spy Kids teamon, so they had

38
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,959
Speaker 1: all kinds of cool spy kids gear, and one of

39
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: the cool things they had were jet packs. What I

40
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 1: want a jet pack? That's so cool. Yeah. Their jet

41
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 1: packs were pretty cool. They look like normal backpacks, but

42
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: when you put the backpack on and pushed the button

43
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: out popped jets out of the bottom of the backpack,

44
00:02:54,280 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: and then another button turn the jet packs on full blast,

45
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 1: which allowed them to fly through the sky. They knew

46
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 1: that they needed to get to the beach as fast

47
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,639
Speaker 1: as they could to follow the clues on the treasure map.

48
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: As they were putting the jet packs on, Liam asked,

49
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: all right, so what are all the clues on the

50
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: treasure map? Audrey said, all right, looks like there's some

51
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: kind of tree with like a hat, like a cowboy

52
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: hat on it. That's pretty strange. And then once we

53
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: find that, we go a little further and there's, oh

54
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 1: my gosh, there's like a pink dragon with like white spots,

55
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: so that's weird. And then inside the cave with a

56
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: cat that looks like he has a mean face, like

57
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: a mean cat. It looks like inside that cave, this

58
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: mean cat is guarding it and maybe that's where the

59
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: treasure is. All right, now that we got the clues,

60
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: let's go. So they blasted off with their jet packs.

61
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: It only took them about five minutes to get to

62
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: the beach because that's how fast they were, and when

63
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: they landed they needed to start looking for that first clue.

64
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 1: All right, that is a weird clue. Audrey said, a

65
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: tree with a cowboy hat. That is so weird. Why

66
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: would a tree have a hat on? And then oh,

67
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: my gosh, look at that. It wasn't a real cowboy hat,

68
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: but look the leaves on the tree were cut to

69
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: look like the shape of a cowboy hat. That's the

70
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: first clue. Let's go. And so from the tree there

71
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: was a trail that led into the forest. This has

72
00:04:55,160 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: to be the way arm and got and clause er,

73
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: what was that? They turned around and on the beach

74
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: were four pirates. Oh my gosh, I think they're going

75
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: for the same treasure. We gotta get out of here hurry.

76
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: And they raced down the trail as fast as they could,

77
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: and they had to find the next clue. Do you

78
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 1: remember what the next clue was, Yes, a pink dragon

79
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: or something with white spots mm hmm. So as they

80
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: ran down the trail, they finally got out of range

81
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: of the pirates. All right, they were both out of breath,

82
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: and Liam he saw something. He said, wait, what's that

83
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: over there? That's weird. There's a flamingo up there. And

84
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 1: the flamingo was very big, bigger than a normal flamingo.

85
00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:00,040
Speaker 1: Liam then thought, wait a second, do you guys, do

86
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 1: you know what a what color of flamingo is? What

87
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 1: color is it? Yeah? It's pink, Oh my gosh, and

88
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 1: this one had white spots. What Liam couldn't believe it. Audrey,

89
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 1: it's not a white dragon or a pink dragon with

90
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 1: white spots. I think it's actually a pink flamingo with

91
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 1: white spots that we're supposed to find. All right, now,

92
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 1: what do we do? They walked over to the pink

93
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 1: flamingo and he looked right at them and said, our

94
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 1: lord laclone for the treasure. He talks. What that's crazy? Um? Yes,

95
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 1: mr pink flamingo, where we are looking for the treasure?

96
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: Do you do you have a like? Do you know

97
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: where we should go? And the pink flamingo said yes,

98
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 1: but we must save them magic word and then I

99
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: will tell you what's're about to go. Grab the map, Liam,

100
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 1: pull it out. Liam grabbed the map and looked all

101
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: over for a secret password. Mm hm oh. Down at

102
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: the bottom, there's these numbers four five zero one ning

103
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: ning ning ning Ning. The flamingo clapped his wings. That

104
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: was funny, he clapped his wings and said, Lord out,

105
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: are now little to follow this trail that well? And

106
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: so Audrey and Liam both followed the trail, running as

107
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: fast as they could because they thought the pirates must

108
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: be getting closer. Now. This trail led them to a

109
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: wall like a mountain wall, a cliff full of all

110
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: these different caves. Oh my gosh, how in the world

111
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: are we supposed to find which like the right cave.

112
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 1: We can't get lost in the cave. That would be

113
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: really bad. Um, do you remember what it said on

114
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: the map? Audrey looked, yeah. It said something about cave

115
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: with like a cat guarding it, and it looked kind

116
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: of mean. Do you see a cat anywhere? Liam looked

117
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: everywhere but couldn't see when anywhere. Um, what's that sound?

118
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, we forgot our jet packs back there,

119
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:47,079
Speaker 1: and now the pirates. The pirates are flying towards us. Hurry,

120
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 1: we gotta get in the cave fast. And they quick

121
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: ran towards one of the caves and ow, what the ow?

122
00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 1: Who's someone's throwing acorns at us? They looked up and

123
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 1: there was a cat sitting on top of the opening

124
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 1: of the cave and he was throwing acorns at them. Ah, gosh,

125
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: that's such a mean cat. What are you doing. Audrey

126
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 1: then thought, oh my gosh, that's the mean cat. This

127
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: is the cave. Let's go. They ran inside the cave

128
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: and sure enough, back way back deep in the cave,

129
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: there was an ex on the ground. They started digging

130
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 1: as fast as they could. Hurry, go, go, go. Clunk,

131
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: and their shovels clunked on a treasure box and they

132
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 1: opened it up and it was full of chocolate golden coins. Hurry,

133
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: fill your pockets. We gotta get out of here. The

134
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: two of them filled all their pockets with the gold

135
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: chocolate coins, and then they needed to get out of

136
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 1: there as fast as they could because those pirates were

137
00:09:56,040 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: getting closer on their jet packs. Liam and Audrey did it.

138
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: They found the treasure and raced out of there as

139
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 1: fast as they could. In the pirates didn't even see them. Wow,

140
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: that was so cool that they found the treasure map

141
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 1: and followed all the clues. Man, I want to find

142
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: a treasure map, do you? Yeah? That would be so cool.

143
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: Great job Liam and Audrey have fun eating all the

144
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 1: gold coins. The end
