00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Kids Short Stories. Today's story is brought

2
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 1: to us by two of our friends, Dominic Noan. Hey guys,

3
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: they sent us an awesome idea first story, and you

4
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 1: can too. Just head over to our Instagram page Kids

5
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,079
Speaker 1: Short Stories or go to kids Short Stories dot Org.

6
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 1: Send us your idea and maybe we'll turn it into

7
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 1: an awesome adventure. Are you ready for this one? Me too?

8
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 1: Let's go. Owen Are you there? Owen? Are you there?

9
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: Dominic was radio ing into his brother Owen, who were

10
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: both scuba divers. You see, Dominic he was driving the

11
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 1: submarine and Owen was the scuba diver. Sometimes they switched jobs,

12
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: but today Owen was exploring the deep, deep dark parts

13
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: of the ocean. Which have you ever been to the deep,

14
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:04,679
Speaker 1: deep deep part of the ocean? Yeah? Me, neither sounds scary,

15
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: but Dominic and Owen are so brave. Dominic was radioing

16
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: into Owen to tell him that his oxygen levels were

17
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: running low. Is there air in the ocean not for

18
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: people to breathe? And so when people are submarine and

19
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 1: scuba divers, they need to bring their air down with them,

20
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,479
Speaker 1: and scuba divers have it in a tank on their

21
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,680
Speaker 1: back so that they can breathe. It brings it all

22
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 1: the way into their mouth to keep them nice and

23
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: safe and so Owen he only had a couple more

24
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: minutes left. Come in, Hey, Dominic, I'm here. Yeah, I

25
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: see my oxygen levels are running low, so I'm headed

26
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: back to the submarine over. Oh good, I'm glad. Owen

27
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: is already heading back to the submarine as Dominic and

28
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: and drove the submarine back to the surface of the

29
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: ocean and back to their headquarters. They had to make

30
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 1: a report of everything they saw. It was a really

31
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 1: exciting adventure. Today. They had found some gold coins from

32
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: a lost pirate treasure ship, and they had discovered a

33
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 1: new fish with a glowing nose. Have you ever seen

34
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: a fish with a glowing nose? Yeah? Me, neither, But

35
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: they found a brand new one, never before seen. That

36
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 1: is a really cool job. Can you imagine finding a

37
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 1: creature for the very first time and no one's ever

38
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: seen it before. Yeah, that is a really cool job.

39
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: I wish I had that job. But another part of

40
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: Dominican Owen's job was to protect the sea base that

41
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: was on the ocean floor. You see down on the

42
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: floor they had built a special sea base ace or

43
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: a laboratory down at the bottom, and there are a

44
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: couple of scientists that lived there and they would stay

45
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 1: down at the bottom, and part of Dominic and no

46
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: One's job was to make sure they were safe. And

47
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 1: you know that if they needed supplies or if anything

48
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: bad happened, they were the first ones to help them.

49
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: As they were making their report about all the cool

50
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 1: things they had found today, they had an urgent message

51
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: come across. It said, Headquarters, Headquarters, come in, what's going

52
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: on down there? There's something huge. It looks like a

53
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: sea monster. How we don't know what to Oh. No,

54
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: the radio message cut out. It sounds like there's a

55
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 1: sea monster down there, and the radio is not working anymore.

56
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: Dominic and Owen they got to get back down there hurry.

57
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 1: This time, Owen was going to be the submarine driver

58
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: and Dominic was gonna put the suit on. Let's go.

59
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: They dove the submarine back down to the ocean floor,

60
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: hundreds and hundreds of feet down below. They had to

61
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: see what was going on and make sure everyone in

62
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: the sea base down there was safe. As they were

63
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 1: getting closer and closer, everything looked normal. Um oh and

64
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: do you see anything. No, everything looks fine, all the

65
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: lights around down there, and yeah, I don't I don't

66
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 1: know what they're talking about. They parked the submarine right

67
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: next to the lab, and there's a special door that

68
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 1: they could walk in and walk into the lab. Dominic

69
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 1: and Owen walked into the lab and oh, no, what

70
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 1: happened in here? The three scientists that were in there

71
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 1: were laying on the ground. Oh out, they were just

72
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 1: now standing up. Guys. What happened? Dominic and oh, and

73
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: we're so glad you're here. We're not sure what happened,

74
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 1: but it felt like some creature picked up our whole lab,

75
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 1: shook it around, and then set it back down. I

76
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: don't know why in the world they would do that.

77
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:35,719
Speaker 1: But oh, we have terrible headaches now, and all of

78
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: our stuff is just everywhere. Yeah, Dominic and Owen looked around,

79
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: and yeah, the lab looked exactly as he had said

80
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: that everything had been shooken up. Who would do such

81
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: a thing. This is a mystery. But we got to

82
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: figure this out and see, like maybe it was just

83
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: a big wave, you know, maybe maybe it wasn't a creature,

84
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 1: maybe or an earthquake could have been all kinds of things.

85
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,679
Speaker 1: But let's go check let's go check it out. Dominic

86
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 1: and Owen both put their scuba suits on and went

87
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 1: into the water outside of the lab. They started swimming

88
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:19,679
Speaker 1: around looking for clues. And ha, what is that? There

89
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:26,119
Speaker 1: was a giant squid like ten times bigger than the lab.

90
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: It looks humongous. It's eyeball was as big as my house.

91
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: Whoyo there what and it can talk? Uh? Hello? Uh,

92
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,919
Speaker 1: my name's Dominic. This is my brother Owen. What are

93
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: you doing. Oh I'm sorry if I bumped into your

94
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:56,159
Speaker 1: home there. I was looking for something in it. I

95
00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: thought it fell underneath that thing. Oh my gosh, I

96
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: think the squid. I don't think he's bad, but I

97
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: think the squid must have lost something. And he thought

98
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 1: it went under the lab. And then he picked up

99
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 1: the lab with one of his tentacles and he didn't

100
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: find it, so he put it back down. Oh my gosh,

101
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: mr squid, Well what did you lose? Can we help

102
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: you find it? Oh? Yes, you could help me find that.

103
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: You see, I lost my shoes. What, yes, you see, squid.

104
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: We we have a lot of feet and we need

105
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: a lot of shoes. And I lost some of my shoes,

106
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: and I thought they went under here, but they're not.

107
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:57,119
Speaker 1: Someone must have duke them. Oh gosh, okay, I didn't

108
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: know squid had shoes, but if you lost them, then

109
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: we are here to help, all right. So where did

110
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: you last see them? Oh? Well, I saw them over yeah,

111
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: and that I thought they fell down here. The squid

112
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 1: was looking all over the place, and he was pretty big,

113
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: but he was kind of too big to fit into

114
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: all the small spaces to where his shoes might have fallen.

115
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: M All right, Owen, you go that way, I'm gonna

116
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,559
Speaker 1: go this way. Dominican Owen split up with some really

117
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: bright flashlights because down at the bottom of the ocean

118
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: it's pretty dark and you need to bring your own

119
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: lights so you can see. They were looking everywhere, and

120
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 1: I found one. Owen said, it looks like a crab

121
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 1: had taken one of the shoes and wanted to live

122
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 1: in it like a home, Mr crab. We need this

123
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: shoe back that goes to the big squid there, so sorry,

124
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 1: And they brought the squid his shoe. Oh, thank you

125
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: so much. Now I only need two more of my shoes.

126
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 1: Oh man, okay, I found one Dominic found another shoe. Great,

127
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 1: it had fallen down in this hole. Easy peasy, all right,

128
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: we're down one more shoe that we have to find.

129
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: Where could it be? Um, oh you know what? I

130
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: think I might have accidentally eaten it. You ate your shoe? Well,

131
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: sometimes I get very hungry and I eat everything that

132
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: I can see. Uh, that's probably what happened. But thank

133
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: you for helping me find these shoes. Is you have

134
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: been most helpful. Goodbye, and the squid vanished. Oh wow,

135
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: that was so cool. Owen Dominican Owen both couldn't believe

136
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: that they had met this giant squid and helped him

137
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: find shoes that he had lost. They went back inside

138
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: the lab to tell all the scientists that it was

139
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: just a misunderstanding and that it wasn't a sea monster,

140
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 1: was a giant squid, and so that they didn't have

141
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 1: to be afraid anymore. Everybody who was so relieved that

142
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: it was just a squid looking for his shoes, See

143
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,719
Speaker 1: you next time friends. The end
