Today's story is part two of Sterling 8 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 1: in the Zombie Worlds and all that grumpiness. Who's ready 9 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 1: to get rid of this grumpiness from dark sticky breath? 10 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 1: Me too, Let's go. It was another beautiful morning as 11 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 1: Sterling hopped onto the school bus and there was Noah. 12 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: Hey Noah, Sterling shouted, Hey, calm down, Sterling, don't be 13 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: so loud, said one of the kids on the school bus. 14 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: Oh so sorry. Sterling snuck through and sat next to Noah. 15 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: What's going on. Everyone's still looking grumpy, I know, said Noah. 16 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: I think the grumpiness is back. Oh man, I guess 17 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna be playing live attack by ourselves again, said Sterling. 18 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: As the bus drove off. Not a single word was 19 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: said in the school bus. Everybody was grumpy and didn't 20 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: want to talk to anybody except Sterling and Noah. They 21 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: had fun sitting all the way in the back. As 22 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: the school bus arrived and everyone jumped out and walked 23 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: into school, Sterling grabbed his walkie and called out to Izzy, 24 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: s Hey, Izzy, are you there? Are you at school yet? 25 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: Because everyone here is super grumpy? Check on Jack too 26 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: over sh Immediately, Izzy replied, sh it's terrible. I've never 27 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: seen everyone like this before. Like, seriously, everyone, he's so grumpy, 28 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: said Izzie. And Jack He's even worse today. He barely 29 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: even opened his eyes when I walked past him. I 30 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: don't know. Something is not right. As schools started, Sterling 31 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: and Noah couldn't help but just wonder how in the 32 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: world did this happen. They were supposed to be learning 33 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 1: about math, but so hard to focus with all that 34 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: grumpiness and that giant mystery that needed to be solved. 35 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: Sterling's mind raised and then remembered, Wait a second, I 36 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 1: think yesterday it was pretty normal until everyone went to 37 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: the library. Yeah, when me and Noah were cleaning the classroom. 38 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: That is possibly when everyone changed because but recess, Yes, 39 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: it all makes sense. He had to wait until the 40 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: math part of their class was done, because then they 41 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: would have a couple minute break to get up and 42 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: move around and shake all the wiggles out. Noah, I 43 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: figured it out, whispered Sterling as he motioned for him 44 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: to come over. Remember yesterday everyone started getting weird at recess, right, yeah, 45 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: said Noah. Well, remember we were cleaning the room and 46 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: everyone else was in the library before recess. So whatever 47 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: changed them to be grumpy must have been in the library. 48 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: Noah's eyes got really big. Ooh, you mean the librarian. 49 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, she is pretty grumpy herself, Sterling laughed. I 50 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: don't know if it's necessarily the librarian, but I don't know. 51 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 1: Something suspicious must have happened in that library. Later on 52 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: in the day, after lunch, it was time to head 53 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: to the library, and Sterling and Noah couldn't wait to 54 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: get there and look for clues. All right, Noah, we 55 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: have to stay on high alert whatever has infected all 56 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: these kids into being grumpy, I don't want it to 57 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: even come close to touching me, said Sterling. They started 58 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: walking around the library and Noah kept a very close 59 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: eye in the librarian. He was convinced that she must 60 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: be behind all of this grumpiness. Sterling was watching all 61 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: of his classmates and seeing what they were doing. He 62 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 1: was watching to see if he could figure out what 63 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 1: could have caused this. Most of them were too grumpy 64 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: and they just sat in the corner and did nothing. 65 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: But some of them got up and were picking some 66 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: books and reading them. Everything seemed so normal, said Sterling, 67 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: and then he saw something drip from one of the books. Gross, Noah, 68 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: come look at this. The two of them walked over 69 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: to one of the books that had fallen off the 70 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: shelf and yeah, it looked like there was some kind 71 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: of goofy stuff sticking to the book. That's disgusting, said Noah. 72 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: I don't want to touch that. But wait a second, 73 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 1: look at that. On the edge of the book. There 74 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: was a small hole, a hole that almost looked like 75 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: a wormhole, like you know, have you ever seen an 76 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: apple with a wormhole where the worm has dug its 77 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: way inside of that fruit? Well, it looked kind of 78 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: like that, but in this book. Sterling grabbed a pencil 79 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: and poked the inside of this hole with the pokey 80 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: part of the pencil, and instantly they heard a sound. 81 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: What was that, said Sterling? Did it come from inside 82 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: of that tiny little hole? As he tried to pull 83 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: the pencil out from the hole, it started to get 84 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: sucked in deeper and deeper. What is going on? Said Noah. 85 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: It's the book is eating your pencil. The book is 86 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: eating your pencil. A sh now shouting and the library 87 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: sh That was the librarian. He can be a little grumpy, 88 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: but Noah shouldn't be shouting right now at a time 89 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: like this. All right, we have got to call this 90 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: into HQ. This is gotta be connected to what's going on, 91 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 1: and we have to let Izzy know too, said Sterling. 92 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: They grabbed their walkie very quietly called into HQ. Sh HQ. 93 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: This is Sterling and Noah, we're in a library.
