It glows like 15 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 2: bright green and yellow, and and it smells disgusting. 16 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,279 Speaker 1: The bus is gonna love this, you see. The Purple 17 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: Ninjas were now traveling back through their tunnel that they 18 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: had dug underneath the castle to bring this stinky crystal 19 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 1: all the way back to the stinky lab. Yeah. 20 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 2: And uh, I think we're actually gonna do this correctly 21 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 2: this time. Ah, we could totally go for a wind. 22 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 2: We've had so many failures. I can't handle any more failures, 23 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 2: said one of the Purple Ninjas. 24 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: Well. Meanwhile, up at the castle, the four girls, Juniper, Cassidy, Jemma, 25 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,559 Speaker 1: and Violet, were all traveling down the tunnel with their headlamps, 26 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: getting closer and closer to where the Purple Ninjas were. 27 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: All right, we gotta move a little faster, but we 28 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: gotta stay quiet, said Jemma. How in the world do 29 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: we know where we're going? Are we even going the 30 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: right way? Said Violet. I know there's been a lot 31 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: of turns, and but we're doing our best to follow 32 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: all these purple footprints. They're kind of getting harder and 33 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: harder to see now, said Juniper, And they were right. 34 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: The purple ninja's footprints they disappear over time, a very 35 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: fresh purple ninja print. It has a little bit of 36 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: a purple glow, and so when you're in a dark place, 37 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: it's really easy to see them. But they do start 38 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: to fade pretty quickly, so as they're traveling deeper and deeper, 39 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: further along in this tunnel became harder and harder to 40 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: follow these footprints. Oh wait, there's another one over there, 41 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: said Violet. Let's go you see the tunnels underground. The 42 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: Purple Ninjas had found their way into an old mine shelter. 43 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: You see, underneath mountains there can sometimes be a lot 44 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: of tunnels from a long, long time ago, when people 45 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: were looking for gold or diamonds or coal, they would 46 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 1: dig these big, long tunnels underneath mountains, and I think 47 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: that was how the Purple Ninjas got into the castle 48 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,239 Speaker 1: in the first place. So it was like a big 49 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 1: maze of tunnels underneath this mountain. What about you? Would 50 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: that be a scary thing or an exciting thing? To 51 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: go through a maze of tunnels underneath a mountain. That 52 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: would be pretty scary for me. I don't know if 53 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 1: I could do that all by myself. These four spies 54 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: are clearly very brave. They've been very well trained. But 55 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: I hope they're able to rescue that stinky crystal in time. 56 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: Hey wait, did you hear that? Said Cassidy? Sh Everyone 57 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: quiet up ahead, they heard the Purple Ninjas. 58 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 2: All right, guys, I think we're almost to the exit. 59 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 2: It should be right around this corner. Uh yeah, right 60 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 2: up there. I can see the light. Okay, once we 61 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 2: get up there, if the blim should be waiting for us, 62 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 2: but we got a hurry. We don't want those spies 63 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 2: to and known that we've stolen this crystal. 64 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: All right, we're running out of time, said Jemma. Everyone 65 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: get your glue shooters ready. 66 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: Hurry. 67 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: The four spies grabbed their glue shooters out of their packs. 68 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: Violet started running off towards the Purple Ninjas. Purple Ninjas, 69 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 1: you better stop or else you're gonna get stuck. 70 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 2: Oh dear ah, what do you mean we're gonna get stuck. 71 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 2: We're Ninjas. We can get out of anything, and we're 72 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 2: almost away. You're never gonna catch us. 73 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 1: The Purple Ninjas started running as fast as they could. 74 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: The four Spies could see the Purple Ninjas holding the 75 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: stinky crystal. Hurry get them. Violet was the first one 76 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: to shoot a whole bunch of glue towards the Purple Ninjas. 77 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 1: What The glue launched out and stuck onto the Purple 78 00:04:55,400 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: Ninja's feet. Oh no, guys, what are we gonna do? Jemma, 79 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 1: grab the crystal from them and let's finish them off 80 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: with spring him with some more glue, said Cassidy. Jemma 81 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: grabbed the crystal from the Purple Ninjas. 82 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 2: Hey, give that back. 83 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 1: All right, Purple Ninjas, it's time for a glue shower, 84 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: said Juniper, go as the glue started shooting and spray 85 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: all over the Purple Ninjas. They were completely stuck. Yes, 86 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 1: all right, we gotta get this crystal out of here. 87 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 4: HQ HQ. 88 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 1: This is Jemma.

As Juniper, Cassidy, Gemma, and Violet ran 94 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 3: back towards the castle, they sealed up the tunnel that 95 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 3: the Purple Ninjas had dug through in the ground. 96 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 2: Oh dear, what are we gonna tell the boss this time? 97 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 2: We've told them every excuse that I can ever think of.
