Me too, Let's go. 11 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,840 Speaker 1: Carter and Ava were playing with their binoculars in the backyard. 12 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: They had got these binoculars a couple months ago, but 13 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 1: this was the first time that they were really spending 14 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: a lot of time working with them. Have you ever 15 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: used binoculars before. Yeah, they go over your eyes and 16 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: you look through them and it far away, things seem 17 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 1: like they're a lot closer. They're a really important tool 18 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: for any spy if you're wanting to, you know, spy 19 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:10,759 Speaker 1: up in the clouds and see if you can find 20 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,400 Speaker 1: the purple blimp, or maybe if you smell something stinky, 21 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: you grab your binoculars to keep an eye out for 22 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: a purple ninja or doctor Stinkybreath himself. Well, Carter and 23 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: Ava were in their backyard practicing and learning how to 24 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: focus with the binoculars, and they're about to find something 25 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 1: pretty remarkable. Hey, Ava, could I have a turn with 26 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: those binoculars in like a minute, asked Carter. He was 27 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: swinging while Ava was having her turn. She was laid 28 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: down in the long green grass with her elbows dug 29 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: into the ground to make a nice foundation for her 30 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: hands to stay still as they leaned up against her forehead. Yes, Carter, 31 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: I'm almost done, but I'm just serving this one hillside 32 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: in that mountain over there. They lived where they could 33 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: see mountains from their backyard, which is really cool, and 34 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:09,959 Speaker 1: they were convinced that they had seen something purple hanging 35 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: around one of those mountains back there, So they were 36 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: using their binoculars to see if, maybe, just maybe they 37 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: could find a clue. Carter jumped off from the swing 38 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: and flew through the air and landed in the grass 39 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: right next to Ava. All right, Ava, it's my turn. 40 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: Wait hold on a second, hold on, go wait, Carter, 41 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: come here, come here, Look at this, Ava, handed Carter 42 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: the binoculars and pointed as she was jumping up and down. 43 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: She was pointing, but it's kind of hard to tell 44 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: where she was pointing because she was jumping up and down. 45 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: And finally Carter saw it. He saw what she was 46 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:51,679 Speaker 1: so excited about. Is that a cave, said Carter. I'm 47 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: pretty sure it is, said Ava. We've gotta go check 48 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: it out. Not another second passed by before Carter and 49 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: Ava were both ra sing to their bedrooms to grab 50 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,679 Speaker 1: their jet pack and all their spy gear. They put 51 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: on their jet packs and off they blasted m Carter 52 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: and Ava had both become expert jetpack drivers. They knew 53 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: how to stay really low to the ground, almost zooming 54 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: in between the branches of the trees as they zoomed 55 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: through the forest towards this mountain. When you're zooming through 56 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: the trees and the branches like that, it's really hard 57 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: for you know, a blimp up in the sky to 58 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: spot you from far away. But Carter and Ava they 59 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: were really good at basically staying invisible as they fly 60 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: through the forest. Ava was the first one to get 61 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: to the hillside and carefully landed on some rocks right Carter, 62 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: get down, Get down. I think the cave is right 63 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: up there. She pointed up ahead and Carter nodded. Yep. 64 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure you're right, said Carter. They turned off 65 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: their jetpacks because they were gonna walk the rest of 66 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: the way. Wanted to sneak up on that cave just 67 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: in case there were some purple ninjas inside. They were 68 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: very good to avoid walking on sticks and crunchy rocks 69 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: along the way because one big step with a crunch 70 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: that gives a SPI's position away for everyone in the area. 71 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 1: So when you're on a spy mission, you have to 72 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: know how to walk very quietly, slowly, but also fast, 73 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: but slowly and quietly. Then it's kind of complicated, but 74 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 1: if you practice, you'll get it. Carter's stomach began to rumble. 75 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: S Carter, Tell your stomach to quiet down, whispered Ava. 76 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, said Carter. I'm just really hungry. I can't 77 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: stop thinking my cupcakes. I don't know why, but it's 78 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: all I can think about right now. In my stomach. 79 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 1: It just keeps grumbling. Okay, well, we're getting closer. Just 80 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: tell your stomach to stop making so much noise, whispered Ava. 81 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 1: The two of them finally pulled their way up and 82 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 1: got right in front to the entrance of the cave. 83 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: They couldn't believe it. The entrance of the cave was 84 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: pretty big. Actually, it was hidden behind some trees. That's 85 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: why no one had ever really seen it before, or 86 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: so they thought. Carter and Ava walked inside of the 87 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: cave and they grabbed their flashlights out of their packs 88 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: and shown it around. They couldn't believe their eyes. Uh, Ava, 89 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: are you seeing what I'm seeing? Are those real crystals? 90 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: Shouted Carter. Sh we gotta stay quiet, but yes, they 91 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 1: look like real crystals. I think we found some kind 92 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 1: of real crystal cave, whispered Ava. Holy smokes, they just 93 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: found a crystal cave. WHOA, that's amazing. Have you ever 94 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 1: found a crystal cave before? I know I definitely have not. 95 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: This is absolutely remarkable. But unfortunately they are not the 96 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: first ones to find this cave. Ava, come over here, 97 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: said Carter. It looks like I can just pull off 98 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: a piece of the crystal. Look at this. Carter was right. 99 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: The walls were covered completely covered in crystals that were 100 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 1: poking out of the wall, almost like little fingers. It's 101 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: like he could walk up and just pick one up. 102 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: Carter reached over and grabbed one of the crystals, and 103 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: it popped right off the wall as soon as it 104 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: touched his hand. They couldn't believe it. It transformed not into 105 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: a crystal, but into a cupcake. Carter, How did you 106 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 1: do that? Said Ava. Carter's eyes got giant normous. He 107 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: didn't know how it happened, but he finally got the 108 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: delicious cupcake that he had been dreaming of home. He 109 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: gobbled it up in one giant bite. Ava, that was 110 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,679 Speaker 1: the best cupcake I've ever had. What in the world 111 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: just happened, said Carter. I don't know, said Ava, but 112 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: it's almost like the crystal knew that you wanted a cupcake, 113 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: and then it turned right into what you were thinking about. 114 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: Let me try. Ava reached over, grabbed a crystal and 115 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: pulled it off the wall, and immediately it turned into 116 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: a giant bouquet of cotton candy. That's what I was 117 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: thinking about. Ava couldn't contain herself and gobbled up the 118 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: entire thing of cotton candy. Holy smokes, they have just 119 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: found like the coolest place in the world. I have 120 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: gotta know where this cave is. If you walked into 121 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: this cave and could pick up a crystal and it 122 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: would turn into anything that you thought about. What would 123 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: your crystal turn into? Hmmm, well, now that my mind 124 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: is thinking just about cupcakes and cotton candy, that might 125 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: be exactly what I pick. But it was just then 126 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: that they heard another voice. All right, guys, Ace sorry, 127 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: I have to run back to the bloom real quick 128 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: to get a bigger bucket so that we can collect 129 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: some more of these crystals. Do you guys want to 130 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: come in? Oh? Sure, yeah, I'll come with you and 131 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: help you. Carter and Ava dove behind a big rock. 132 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: Did you hear that, Carder? Of course I did. What 133 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: do we do? Oh no, Carter and Ava, I have 134 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: discovered a pretty amazing cave, but it's the Purple Ninjas 135 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: that have already gotten there. First. One are they going 136 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: to be able to escape without getting captured by Purple Ninjas? 137 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: And two? Have the Purple Ninjas just discovered something that 138 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: can give them the ultimate power they need to take 139 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: over the world with dark just stinking breaths with these 140 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: magic crystals.
