1
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:18,560
Speaker 1: Hello, friends, and welcome to sleep Tight Stories. This is

2
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:23,120
Speaker 1: part two of our story about Sparkles the Unicorn meeting

3
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 1: Zippy the Zebra. In the first episode, Bobby blue Jay

4
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 1: and Sparkles were out playing and decided to go to

5
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,559
Speaker 1: a new place to play. They found an arch with

6
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: old writing on it. As Sparkles got closer, the arch

7
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 1: started to glow, and then she walked through into a

8
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 1: new place. She looked for Bobby, but he was nowhere

9
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 1: to be found. Then Zippy the Zebra came along and

10
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: she explained what had happened. Zippy said he would help Sparkles.

11
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 1: Sparkles Meet Zippy the Zebra Part two. How come you

12
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: aren't a sleep little bear, Papa Bear whispered. I told you, Papa,

13
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: that I could stay awake all night listening to you

14
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: tell me stories. Bernice said quietly, with her eyes squinting.

15
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: You need your sleep, little bear. Try to relax, keep

16
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: your eyes closed, cuddle with your friends, and I'll finish

17
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:51,559
Speaker 1: my story. Okay, Love you, Papa, Love you too, little Bear.

18
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: Bobby the blue Jay was on the shoulders of Sparkles.

19
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: She walked through the portal, but as she walked through,

20
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: Bobby was gently pushed along her body and eventually had

21
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:14,519
Speaker 1: to start flying as she disappeared, otherwise he might fall.

22
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: What just happened, Bobby the blue Jay exclaimed out loud, Sparkles, Sparkles,

23
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 1: where are you? This isn't a good time for hide

24
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: and seek or for playing tricks. He flew above the

25
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: stone archway and behind it. Bobby flew up high to

26
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: get a better look at the area. He flew high

27
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: and low and all over the meadow, calling out Sparkle's name,

28
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: but he could not see Sparkles, nor did she reply.

29
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: I guess this really he is some kind of magic portal,

30
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: he thought. I hope she isn't in any kind of trouble.

31
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: Sitting on a high tree branch, Bobby sat and thought

32
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: for a moment. He was always taught to take a

33
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: deep breath and not panic when excited like this. He

34
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: needed a moment to think. There is only one creature

35
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: I know who might be able to help me understand

36
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: what happened and help me find Sparkles, He thought, Bixy,

37
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: I must go to his house and get his help.

38
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: Bobby the blue Jay flew off the tree and started

39
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: the short journey to Bixie's house. Sparkles and Zippy were

40
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: trotting across the tall yellow grass, with Zippy taking a

41
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: slight lead. You certainly can run fast, Zippy said, smiling

42
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: as he struggled to keep in front. It looks like

43
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: you aren't even trying. My family is famous for our

44
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: ability to go really fast. The older we get, the

45
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 1: faster we can go. Where are we going? Will we

46
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: be able to find an elder who understands the magic

47
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 1: I just experienced? And quickly? I really don't want my

48
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 1: parents or my friend Bobby to worry about me. I

49
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: don't know which elder we'll know. Our first stop will

50
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 1: be Hannah at the Hyenas mound. If she doesn't have

51
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 1: the answer, I am sure she will be able to

52
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: tell us. Who might Is that her mound just up ahead?

53
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: It certainly is, Zippy said, slightly out of breath and

54
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: glad they would soon be able to to have a break.

55
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: As they approached the home of Hannah the Hyena, Hannah

56
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: got up from her morning siesta to greet her visitors.

57
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 1: Walking down from the top of her mound, she said, hello, there, Zippy,

58
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 1: I haven't seen you in a while. Who is your

59
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: colorful friend? Coming to a stop. Zippy first took a

60
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: moment to catch his breath. This is Sparkles. She needs

61
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: some help, and I thought you could help her. Hello, Hannah,

62
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: Sparkles said, what kind of help do you need? Sparkles,

63
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 1: We creatures of the Bulby Kingdom are always willing to help,

64
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 1: and I must admit I haven't seen anyone quite like

65
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: you in all my days on the mound. You have

66
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: the most beautiful colors in your main Thank you, Hannah. Well,

67
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: you see, I'm not from around here. I am from

68
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,720
Speaker 1: the mystical forest, and I don't know if it's near

69
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: or far from here. I came through a stone portal.

70
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: It glowed at first, and then it got really bright,

71
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: with lots of colors around the edges. It was so

72
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: bright I had to close my eyes. When I opened them,

73
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: I was here on these grassy plains. Though I would

74
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: love to explore your kingdom, I must get back home

75
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: before my family and my best friend, Bobby the Blue

76
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 1: Jay worry about me. That sounds like some ancient and

77
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 1: special magic you encountered. There aren't any forests around here.

78
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 1: The closest forest I know is a three day journey.

79
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 1: I know nothing of your experience but I know who

80
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: might Who might that be, Zippy asked Willow the wildebeast.

81
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: Would she know Willow was feeding far far from here

82
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: in the east. Your best bet might be to ask

83
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: Logan the lion. He is pretty old and might know

84
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: something about the magic you encountered. He should still be

85
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: resting in the grove about a fifteen minute run from here.

86
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 1: With your speed, Zippy, I'm sure you can be there

87
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: in no time. Thank you, Hannah. We best be off,

88
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: Zippy said, as he turned to trot off towards the

89
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 1: collection of trees far in the distance. Thank you, Hannah,

90
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: Sparkle said, it was really nice to meet you. As

91
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: they sped across the grassy plain, Sparkle said to Zippy,

92
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: it's so much fun to race here. I spend most

93
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 1: of my time in the mystical forest, and with so

94
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: many trees, it's difficult to run this fast for so long.

95
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 1: I can tell you enjoy it by how fast you

96
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: are going. My family is one of the fastest in

97
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: this parts of the Kingdom, and I am having a

98
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 1: hard time keeping up with you. I could slow down

99
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: for you, Sparkles said, laughing. No, thanks, Zippy said, as

100
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: he tried harder and started to take up the lead.

101
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: Up ahead is the grove of trees that Logan the

102
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: Lion calls home. Approaching the small collection of trees and

103
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 1: green grass, Sparkles could see a large family of lions

104
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: relaxing underneath the shade. When they arrived, a large, old

105
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: lion stood up and approached them. Sparkles had never seen

106
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: such a large creature before and was a little nervous.

107
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 1: Logan was so large his eyes met Sparkles when they met.

108
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: Is that you, zippy, Logan said with a deep, raspy voice.

109
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: I haven't seen you playing with my grandchildren in an age.

110
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:15,679
Speaker 1: Where have you been? My family and I have been

111
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 1: chasing the green air grasses on the other side of

112
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: the plane, so I haven't been around this area as

113
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 1: much lately. I'll surely drop by and play chase the

114
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: zebra with the cubs. Who is this lovely creature you

115
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: have with you? Oh? How I miss your colors. Hi.

116
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: My name is Sparkles, and I need your help. My help.

117
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what you tell me how I can

118
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: make my mane the same color as yours, and I

119
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 1: will give you all the help you need, Logan said

120
00:09:55,360 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 1: with a smile. I Uh, I'm I'm not sure I can,

121
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 1: Sparkle said, I'm just joking with you. I remember seeing

122
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: your colors when I was just a young cub myself.

123
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,839
Speaker 1: I've always wanted to have such colorful hair ever since.

124
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 1: Sparkles then told Logan where she came from and how

125
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: she came to the Bulby Kingdom. She told of the bright,

126
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: colorful lights and how only she came through, not her

127
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: friend Bobby. That's about it, Logan. While I would like

128
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: to stay and visit, I'm really concerned that my friend

129
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: Bobby will be worried about me, and if I am

130
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 1: too late, my parents might be as well. I do

131
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 1: remember what do you call yourselves? Logan thought for a moment, Ah,

132
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 1: now I remember unicorns. I remember seeing many unicorns coming

133
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: through these parts when I was a cub. You used

134
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: to come as a group, gallop with the Zebras and

135
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 1: advise whoever our leader was. I'm afraid I was too

136
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: young to understand how you got here and where you

137
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:25,199
Speaker 1: came from. But there is one person who would remember.

138
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: Would that be Emma the Elephant? Zippy interrupted, Yes, go

139
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,319
Speaker 1: see Emma. She will tell you where to find what

140
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: you are looking for In fact, that might be her

141
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,439
Speaker 1: just over yonder, scratching her head on that lone tree,

142
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: Logan said, looking toward a large elephant. Thank you for

143
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 1: your help, Sparkle said. It was nice to meet you.

144
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: Be sure to drop by again. Sparkles, you are all welcome,

145
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 1: especially if you can help me play with these young cubs.

146
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: They have unlimited energy and know how to tire an

147
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: old lion. Thank you, Logan, Zippy said. It was only

148
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 1: a short trot to the tree where Emma had been

149
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: scratching her head. I Emma, Zippy called out. If it

150
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 1: isn't Zippy the fast zebra, look at how you have grown.

151
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: I'm surprised you remember me, Zippy replied. Now, Zippy, you

152
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: must know that we elephants never forget, and you were

153
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 1: always the most playful little fool, kicking and jumping. And

154
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: who do we have with you? I haven't seen a

155
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: unicorn in far too many years. My name is Sparkles,

156
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: and I come from the mystical Kingdom. I know, dear,

157
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 1: and let me guess you need to get home. We

158
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 1: used to get many young unicorns coming this way generations ago.

159
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: It caused so much trouble for your parents. You see,

160
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,559
Speaker 1: the portal you went through was made with a special magic,

161
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: but it was meant for adults. When young unicorns discovered it,

162
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: you would dare each other to run through it all

163
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: the time. Eventually, your parents placed the portal in a

164
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: place only adults knew about. Unfortunately, since that time, the

165
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: amount of guests we have had from the Mystical Kingdom

166
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 1: has decreased greatly. But how can I get back? Follow me, Sparkles,

167
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: and I will show you where the return arch is

168
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 1: back in the Mystical four Forest. Bobby the Blue Jay

169
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: arrived at Bixy's to ask for his help finding Sparkles.

170
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 1: Coming out of his cottage to greet his visitor, Bixy said, Bobby,

171
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: what brings you here? I thought you might be playing

172
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: with Sparkles today, Hi, Bixy. I was playing, but then

173
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: she just disappeared. Disappeared. She must be quite good at

174
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 1: hide and seek. No, she literally disappeared. We played in

175
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: a part of the force that we hadn't played in before.

176
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: It was a clearing at the end of the old

177
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: path that few walk on anymore, and there was a

178
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: stone archway that glowed when Sparkles got close. We were

179
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: curious and decided to walk through. I warned her not to,

180
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: but she always does risky things, and she disappeared through

181
00:14:55,560 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: the archway and you didn't, Bixy replied, yes, how did

182
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: you know? That archway is some ancient magic used by

183
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 1: the old unicorns to travel to a different realm. Don't worry,

184
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: Sparkles is fine. From what I understand, they may be

185
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: expecting her on the other side, or at least if

186
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 1: she seeks help, she will find it. But what can

187
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 1: I do? Bobby chirped, and what is this magic? I

188
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: will talk to you and Sparkles about this old magic

189
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 1: another time. What you can do is go back to

190
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: the archway and wait for her to return. If she

191
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: isn't back soon, we can go to an elder unicorn

192
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: and ask them to go through and find her. Thank you, Bixy,

193
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: I'll fly right back to where I left her. As

194
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: Bobby was flying back to the Archway in the Mystical Forest,

195
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 1: Sparkles arrived at the return archway in the Bulby Kingdom.

196
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 1: So I just need to walk through, Sparkles asked Emma,

197
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: looking at the archway as it started to respond to

198
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: her presence. That's all you have to do. Make case,

199
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: young unicorn. With your parents' permission, you are welcome to

200
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: return any time, so there is no need for long goodbyes.

201
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: Thank you Emma for your help, and it was so

202
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 1: nice to meet you. And thank you, Zippy. I hope

203
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 1: we can meet again soon. See you soon, friend, Zippy replied.

204
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: Sparkles walked through the archway and was blinded by a

205
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: bright white light with all the colors of the rainbow

206
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: at its edges, all the colors that she and many

207
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: other unicorns had in their mail. She opened her eyes

208
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 1: when the bright light disappeared and she was back in

209
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: the mystical forest. You're back, Bobby, sang loudly. I am,

210
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:21,639
Speaker 1: and I have so much to tell you. And with that,

211
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:26,440
Speaker 1: Papa Bear gave Bernice a kiss on the forehead, adjusted

212
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 1: her blanket, making sure that her friends were comfy too,

213
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: turned off her lamp, and quietly whispered, I love you,

214
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: little bear, and that's the end of this story. Good Night,

215
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: leap Tight
