Yes, that 35 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: sounds awesome, Nicholas and Logan said at the same time. 36 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: They raced over to where their dad was holding their 37 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: rain jacket and boots. They hurriedly put them on and 38 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: opened the door. The only sound waiting for them outside 39 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: was the sound of the rain splashing into puddles on 40 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: the street. Nobody was outside, no cars were driving. It 41 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: was completely silent, only the rain. Wow, it sounds just 42 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: like our sound machine, said Nicholas. 43 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 2: It does. 44 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,679 Speaker 1: It's totally the same thing, said Logan. Well, let's go 45 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: get the mail. 46 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 2: Come on. 47 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: They splished and splashed their way towards the mailbox. They 48 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: opened up a very squeaky mailbox door, grabbed the mail 49 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: and carefully shoved it underneath their ring jacket so that 50 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: male wouldn't get wet. When all of a sudden, they 51 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 1: heard a sound boom boom boom. What was that, said Logan. 52 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,519 Speaker 1: It was probably just some lightning and thunder, said Nicholas. 53 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 2: I didn't see any lightning. 54 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: They heard was those three big booms, said Logan. Hey, yeah, 55 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,119 Speaker 1: but it's the middle of a storm. It's I'm sure 56 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: it's just thunder or something, said Nicholas. 57 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 2: Come on, let's go back to the house. 58 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: They splished and splashed their way, stepping in every puddle 59 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: on their way back to the house. You know, when 60 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: you're wearing rain boots and a rain jacket, gotta take 61 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: advantage and walk in the puddles, right, But then they 62 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: heard it again, boom boom boom, but this time they 63 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: could see the puddles. It vibrated like those booms were 64 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: so loud the ground shook. 65 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 2: I told you that's not thunder. 66 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: Said Logan. Nicholas looked around. I think you're right, Logan. 67 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: What could that be? It sounded like a like a 68 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: dinosaur walking, said Nicholas. Let's run up to our room 69 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: and look out the window, said Logan. They ran towards 70 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: the door and open it up. 71 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 2: Oh, thanks for getting the mail. Wait, whoa slow down, 72 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 2: Slow down, said their dad. Here here's the mail. We 73 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 2: gotta go upstairs. 74 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: Nicholas and Logan hurriedly dropped off their boots and rain 75 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: jackets and ran to their room so they could look 76 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 1: out the window to see where those giant booms were 77 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,119 Speaker 1: coming from. It's so hard to see out the window, though, 78 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: said Logan. Their windows had gotten very foggy. You know, 79 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: sometimes when it rains, the condensation appears up on the 80 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: windows and it's hard to look outside. Er Er Nicholas 81 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: took his hand and wiped off the fog from the 82 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: window so that they could get a better look. They 83 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: pressed their eyes up against the glass. It's like we 84 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: gotta stop breathing, said Nicholas, Even our breath fogs up 85 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: the window. They both held their breath and looked closely 86 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: against the window, looking for any kind of movement. And 87 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: that is when they saw it. Off in the distance 88 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: towards downtown was some kind of ginormous, very long creature. 89 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 1: It was too far away to understand exactly what it was, 90 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 1: but he was definitely some. 91 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 2: Kind of monster. 92 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,239 Speaker 1: They ran over to their closet to grab their walkie 93 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 1: talkie for HQ. 94 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 2: Sh HQHQ.
