If this is your first time or you're 3 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:11,799 Speaker 1: still newer to our family, I want to encourage you 4 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 1: to try five. That's our challenge, where for five days 5 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 1: in a row, your kids listen to some awesome stories 6 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 1: to use their imagination and watch their creativity come to life. 7 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 1: You see, we make stories every single day for you, 8 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: and you just never know what kind of story you're 9 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: gonna find on any given day. So hang with me 10 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 1: for five days, whether maybe driving in the car or 11 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 1: maybe during lunchtime, and I think you're gonna find something 12 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: pretty amazing happens. Well, friends, are you ready for today's adventure? 13 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: Me too, Let's go. It was another beautiful day and 14 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: Maverick the Monster was climbing down from his favorite tree 15 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 1: after a good night's sleep. I have so much to 16 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: do today, he said to himself, but first I need 17 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: to get my muscles moving. Maverick was the jungle's protector, 18 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: so he had to stay in tip top shape in 19 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 1: case anyone needed help. He started every day with a 20 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:29,279 Speaker 1: run up and down the mountain, but today something seemed wrong. 21 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: The jungle was quiet to quiet at the top of 22 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: the mountain, Maverick found one of his friends, Jasper the Jaguar. 23 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 1: Where is everyone, Maverick asked, They've all taken cover. Something 24 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 1: is coming. We could smell it, said Jasper. Maverick sniffed, Well, 25 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: I can't smell anything. 26 00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: Really, it smells awful, like really steaky breath. 27 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: Well, it's my job to protect this jungle and all 28 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: the things that live here, Maverick said, standing up tall. 29 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 1: Tell everyone to meet me at my tree in thirty minutes. 30 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: As Jasper spread the word, Maverick ran back down the 31 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: mountain to finish his workout. Everyone is scared. What am 32 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: I going to tell them? Maverick thought to himself as 33 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: he picked up a dead tree and lifted it over 34 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: his head. Holy smokes, can you do that? That's pretty impressive. 35 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,959 Speaker 1: By the time he was done with his workout, Wow, 36 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: quite a workout, he could smell what Jasper was talking about. Meanwhile, 37 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 1: in the Stinky Blimplab, Doctor Stinky Breath and the Purple 38 00:02:51,960 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 1: Nindas were on the move. People keep ruining my plans. Oh, 39 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: I've brought us to the jungle. There no one can 40 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: stop us. 41 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 2: Oh, when after there's no one here, how are we 42 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 2: going to take over the world. 43 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: Don't worry about that, doctor Stinkybird said with a smile, 44 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: I have a plan. Back in the jungle, the animals 45 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 1: were all gathered together. Attention, attention. I know you're all worried, 46 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: but we must remain calm, Maverick said, has anyone noticed 47 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: anything about that smell? Sierra the snake raised her tail 48 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: into the air. If she didn't have hands, so this 49 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: was the best that she could do. 50 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 2: As I was slithering over Cier, it felt like the 51 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 2: ground was rumbling under my scales. 52 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: What do you mean, asked Maverick, But before Sierra could explain, 53 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: a dark shadow passed over them. The animals looked up 54 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: and saw a big, oval shaped purple balloon above them 55 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: in the sky. Hey, the ground is strembling again. My skills, 56 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: shouted Sierra. 57 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 2: Had I hear fate running. 58 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: Said Jasper? He do, Hey, do I hear it too. 59 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: All the others started to chime in. Jasper, use your 60 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 1: tracking skills and lead us towards the sound. As Jasper 61 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: led the group, Maverick tried to calm his body. He 62 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: knew everyone counted on him to protect them. If he 63 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: showed how he was really feeling it might even make 64 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: the other animals more scared. Suddenly, Jasper stopped. Look, he whispered. 65 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 1: The animals saw human looking creatures dressed in purple. They 66 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: were holding a huge tube and went all the way 67 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: up from the big blimp in the sky right down 68 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: to the earth. Hey, yelled Maverick, what are you doing? 69 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: Suddenly there was a loud, cracking sound like thunder. The 70 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: entire jungle shook. The animals squawked and hissed with bright 71 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: Maverick was thrown off balance and fell over when he 72 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: got up the tube and the purple people. We're gone. 73 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 1: You're too late, said doctor stinkybreath over the blimp speaker 74 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: to the animals. 75 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 3: I have injected my toxic breath into the ground, and 76 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 3: now the earth is splitting in half, and there's nothing, 77 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 3: nothing you can do to stop it. 78 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: Ah, quick as a flash, Maverick grabbed a pointy, dead 79 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,679 Speaker 1: branch from the jungle floor and climbed to the dallus 80 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: of the dalls trees. Oh yes we can, shouted Maverick 81 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: as he threw the branch at the blimp to try 82 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: and pop it. For all, it did look kind of 83 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 1: like a ginormous balloon. Now, Maverick was good at many things, 84 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: but unfortunately throwing it's not one of them. The branch missed. 85 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: Feeling disappointed and sad that he had failed to protect 86 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: the jungle, Maverick climbed down from the tree, but when 87 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: he got to the bottom, all the animals were cheering. 88 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: Why are you cheering for me? I missed, and now 89 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: the earth is splitting in half. It's all my fault. 90 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: But the balloon flew away. You scare them off, Jasper, 91 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: shouted Maverick and saw that the balloon in the sky 92 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: was gone. He couldn't believe it. He did it. 93 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 2: We still have a problem with the ground splitting. The 94 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 2: earth is still cracking. 95 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: Said Sierra. She was right. Maverick knew that the jungle 96 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: was resilient, which means it can heal after bad things, 97 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: but it would need some help. Maverick held on to 98 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: two strong trees, one on either side of this giant 99 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: crack that was forming, and used his super strong muscles 100 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: to try and squeeze the crack back together. At first, 101 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: nothing happened, but Maverick did not give up. He squeezed 102 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: with all of his strength. The ground rumbled and the 103 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: trees shook. Maverick kept pulling the two sides together until 104 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: he couldn't pull any more. He dropped to the ground. 105 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: All the animals were silent. Sierra slithered over to the crack. 106 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: Yo dead end. The crack is closed. All the animals 107 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: cheered as Maverick was so proud of himself for not 108 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: only choosing to be brave even when he felt scared, 109 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: but he tried his best, and his best was good 110 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: enough to use all of his strength to close the 111 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: crack that had formed in the jungle. Even though this 112 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: is the end of our story, I think it's only 113 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 1: just the beginning the amazing adventures that lie ahead for 114 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: all these animals in that jungle. The end. Hey friend ZIONI, 115 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: you were helped celebrating a birthday.
