Oh my goodness 15 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: about some silly slime monsters. 16 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 2: Me too, Let's go. 17 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: Vinnian Emery lived in the mountains with their family. It 18 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: was a beautiful place, filled with holy smokes, ginormous mountains, 19 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 1: and these mountains you could see for miles and miles 20 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: if you climbed to the top. And that is something 21 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: that Vinnie and Emory loved to do, partially because it 22 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: was super fun. And the other part was their grandparents 23 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: lived on the other side of one of the mountains, 24 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: and so when they wanted to go visit them, they 25 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: had to get their hiking boots on and go on 26 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: an adventure over the mountain. WHOA, that would be a 27 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: cool way to go to grandma and Grandpa's house. 28 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:44,680 Speaker 2: Right, wow. 29 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: I kind of wish that my grandparents lived on the 30 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: other side of a mountain, and then I would. 31 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 2: Have to climb it every time. That would be so awesome. 32 00:01:52,160 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: Well, Vinnie and Emery were just waking up one Saturday morning. Wait, 33 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: is it time? Is today the day? Said Emory. They 34 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: checked the calendar and sure enough, today was the day. 35 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 2: It's Grandma's day. 36 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,679 Speaker 1: They loved going to the grandparents' house, and today was 37 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: a special day because it was baking day. 38 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 2: Do you like to bake things? 39 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 1: I love to bake cookies or cupcakes. Oh my goodness, 40 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: I gotta stop talking about those things. I'm gonna want 41 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: to eat them right now. Well, Vinnie and Emory raced 42 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: downstairs and ate their delicious breakfast, got on all their 43 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: hiking gear, said goodbye to their parents, and off they started. 44 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 1: This was a big adventure that always took a couple 45 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: hours to climb over this big mountain to get to 46 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: the other side to go to Grandma and Grandpa's house. 47 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,519 Speaker 1: All right, Vinnie said, Emory, which trail do you want 48 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: to take this time? Hmmm, Well, we've never done that 49 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: one before, so let's do that. 50 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 51 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: There were a couple different trails that connected Vinnie and 52 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: Emery's house to their grandparents' house, and they usually picked 53 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: like these one, two or three trails, but there was 54 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: this one trail that they had never gone on and 55 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: always wanted to. It looked a little harder of an adventure, 56 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: but today it would be a great day for that. 57 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: As they started hiking down this new trail, Vinnie saw 58 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: something ahead that looked strange. Memory said, Vinnie, do you 59 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: see those giant rocks up there? They grabbed their binoculars 60 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: because it was really far away. Emory said, yeah, I do. 61 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: Those looks strange. I don't remember the mountains having such 62 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: big boulders, said Emory. Well, Vinnie and Emery continued hiking. 63 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: They did like climbing over rocks, and so they were 64 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: kind of looking forward to getting to those big rocks 65 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: up ahead. Vinnie bet, once we turned that corner up there, 66 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: we'll get a better look at those giant rocks. There 67 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: was a bend in the trail just up ahead. As 68 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: they were approaching, they turned the corner. And wait a second, 69 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: where do those giant rocks go? Said Vinnie. And they 70 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: looked all around and they remembered that is exactly where 71 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 1: those giant boulders were, But somehow they had moved. Do 72 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 1: you think they felt on the mountain? Said Vinnie as 73 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: he scratched his head. He was very confused, because boulders 74 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: don't just up and run away, do they. Uh? I 75 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: don't see anything down the mountain, said Emory. Out of nowhere, 76 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: there was a giant curse splat splat, right next to 77 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: Vinnie's shoe. Ew what is that? Shouted Vinnie as he 78 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 1: picked up his boot. And oh, it looks like a 79 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:58,119 Speaker 1: giant ball of slime. Got wait, where did that come from? 80 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: Vinnie looked up in the sky and it was a 81 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: clear day, and then all of a sudden, here comes 82 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: another one. 83 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 2: Chris Platt. Chrisplatt, right over Emory's head. What is going on? 84 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: Who's throwing those things of slime? 85 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 2: What was that? Up ahead was a cave. 86 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 1: And inside that cave, there were creatures that looked like rocks. 87 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 1: Wait a second, those rocks that Vinnie and Emery had 88 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: seen were actually not rocks. They were creatures that were camouflaged. 89 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: And now look out, shouted Vinnie as he dove to 90 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: the side with Emery. These creatures were throwing eggs filled 91 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: with slime. They were mean creatures, laughing hysterically. How are 92 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 1: we gonna get past them? 93 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 2: Shouted Emory. I don't know. Oh, what are we gonna do. 94 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: We can't get to Grandma and Grandpa's house completely covered 95 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 1: in this slime due it's disgusting and it smells terrible too, 96 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: said Vinnie. 97 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 2: All Right, I have an idea, said Emory. 98 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: Emory started grabbing some branches and sticks in leaves and thought, maybe, 99 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: just maybe they could sneak past with camouflage. Do you 100 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: know what camouflage is, Yes, We've talked about it quite 101 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: a bit. Camouflage, Yes, is when you try to blend 102 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: into your surroundings. So if they're in a forest, it 103 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: would be a good idea. If they look like a bush, right, yeah, 104 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: or a tree or a rock, kind of like those creatures. Well, 105 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: Emery and Vinnie started to completely cover their clothes and 106 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: backpacks in leaves and sticks and branches. They looked absolutely hilarious. 107 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: Can you imagine trying to pretend to. 108 00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 2: Be a bush? 109 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: Ow ooh, that one hurts, said Vinnie as he shoved 110 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: a branch up his sleeve. It's gonna be worth it, 111 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: Vinnie said Emory. We just got to get past those ridiculous, 112 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: silly slime monsters. All right, Let's try and go really 113 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: slow and careful. They were completely covered in leaves and 114 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:26,239 Speaker 1: looked like a bush. As they slowly crawled through the forest, 115 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: the slime monsters started to look around. They couldn't see 116 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: Vinnie and Emery anywhere. They were getting very mad. That 117 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: was the sound they were making. It sounds like a 118 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: pretty angry sound. But they were just looking to throw 119 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: more slimeballs. All right, we're getting closer. We just got 120 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: to get to this other ridge and then we'll be 121 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: good to go, said Emory. Vinnie and Emery carefully slid 122 00:07:55,200 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: over the ridge. Shoo, we made it, said Emory. That 123 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: was such a good idea. Can't believe we almost turned 124 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: into giant slime balls. Grandma would have lost it and 125 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: never let us come bake cookies today. I know, said Emory, 126 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: that was insane. We gotta remember to never take this 127 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: trail again, to stay away from those rock slime monsters. 128 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 2: And that is the day that Vinnie and Emery took. 129 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: The new trail that they'd never been on and got 130 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: attacked by the giant rock slime monsters. If you were 131 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: attacked by slime monsters that were throwing slime balls. 132 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 2: At you, how would you escape it? Would you think 133 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 2: to put on camouflage just like them? Yeah? 134 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 1: I think that was a pretty good idea. Great job, 135 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: Vinnie and Emory. I hope you guys have a great 136 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: day baking delicious cookies and please save one for me 137 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: and make a smiley face on it. 138 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 2: Well, friends, that is the end of today's adventure. 139 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: The great job.
