I'm so glad that you guys are all on the Spy
0:37
Kid team in a part of the Kids Short Stories Family.
0:40
Could not do this without you. Are you guys ready
0:42
for today's adventure? Me too? Let's go
0:53
Pickle? Where are you?
0:56
Decklin shouted. Pickle
0:59
was the name Aim of his cat. He
1:02
had one of the softest kiddies
1:04
in the whole world, and its
1:06
name was Pickle. Kind
1:09
of a silly name for a cat, right, Yeah,
1:12
Well, Pickle was the best cat
1:15
in the whole world and love to play with Decklin
1:17
all day long. They would play hide
1:20
and seat together and hide
1:23
under blanket forts. Have you
1:25
guys ever built a blanket fort together
1:28
with maybe your your siblings
1:30
or your pet. Yeah, blanket forts
1:32
are so fun and Decklin was
1:34
really good at building them. He would put
1:37
pull chairs together and get big blankets
1:40
and draped them over the top, and
1:42
immediately him and
1:44
Pickle would transport into
1:47
a secret location inside
1:49
their fort. Wow.
1:52
Well, all of a sudden,
1:54
Pickle went missing and Declin
1:57
couldn't find it anywhere. Pickle,
2:00
where did you go? He
2:03
was looking all over their fort.
2:05
But you see, their fort
2:08
was so big. They had used
2:10
all the blankets in the entire house. Therefore,
2:14
it was so big that there
2:16
were so many different places to check. And everywhere
2:19
he crawled there was Pickle
2:22
was not there. Wait a second,
2:25
what what is that? Declin
2:28
hadn't been over to this side of the fort yet.
2:31
And back in the corner it was
2:33
kind of up against their where their couch was,
2:36
there was a tunnel.
2:38
He didn't remember building this tunnel. It just
2:41
it's like it just appeared. He
2:44
started squeezing through this tunnel
2:46
and whoa, it was really tight
2:48
and he popped out
2:50
the other side. What in
2:53
the world Declin
2:55
couldn't believe it as he
2:58
he could stand up. It was so big.
3:01
This was not their normal
3:04
fort. Wow. He
3:06
looked around he was inside of it
3:08
looked like a big cave. That
3:11
wow, smells
3:14
kind of musty in here. All
3:17
right, Pickle, are you in
3:19
here? Decklin still
3:22
couldn't find his kittie, Pickle
3:24
anywhere. There
3:28
you are, Pickle? Come here? Somehow
3:31
Pickle had crawled into this underground
3:34
cave underneath their blanket for it, And
3:38
oh, come here. Decklin picked up
3:40
Pickle and and started
3:42
to pet the kittie and and
3:44
help it feel safe. Alright,
3:47
Pickle, what on earth were you doing over here?
3:53
Why was that sound? Ah?
3:57
It sounded just like a dinosaur.
3:59
Declin, You gotta get out of there, dude, Wait
4:02
a second, it
4:05
smells like lemonade in here? What
4:08
is that? As
4:10
Declin grabbed his flashlight
4:13
out of his pocket, he turned it on and
4:16
instantly he couldn't
4:18
believe his eyes. He was
4:20
inside of a cave. That way
4:23
back there there was a waterfall,
4:27
a waterfall of lemonade.
4:31
What he
4:34
had stumbled into the lemonade
4:36
Cave? Have you ever heard of the lemonade
4:39
cave? Oh? Yeah, this
4:41
is where lemonade comes from,
4:43
and this is not your
4:46
normal lemonade cave.
4:53
Those are wait, those
4:55
dinosaurs are pink. As
4:58
Declin and Pickles walked
5:00
deeper back into the cave, they
5:02
saw a whole bunch of
5:05
pink dinosaurs standing next
5:07
to the waterfall.
5:10
Why hello, there, what are
5:12
you doing here? I
5:14
said one of the dinosaurs. Oh hi, my
5:16
name is Declin. I'm sorry to bother
5:18
you. I really don't mean
5:21
any trouble, but um, you see,
5:23
my cat got lost in here, and
5:25
so I'm here to just rescue my kidding, but I
5:27
have to ask, what on earth are you doing?
5:30
And I didn't know that there were such
5:32
things as pink dinosaurs. Oh
5:35
yes, we're a very rare breed
5:38
of of dinosaurs that are pink.
5:41
And you see, we we had
5:43
to hide down here in the lemonade
5:45
cave. We we have a very special job.
5:49
Oh really, what what's your job?
5:52
Well? Have you ever wondered
5:55
where pink lemonade comes from?
5:58
I have so
6:00
delicious, But how does it get pink?
6:03
Declan said, Well,
6:06
you see, that's that's our job
6:09
as pink dinosaurs. We
6:12
we take care and protect this Lemonade
6:14
cave, but we dip our our pink
6:16
tail into the lemonade and it
6:18
instantly turns it pink. Watch
6:22
the dinosaur dipped his pink
6:25
tail into the lemonade
6:28
that was pouring over from the waterfall,
6:30
and it instantly turned pink.
6:35
That's so cool. Declin said,
6:39
yeah, but you see, there's there's
6:42
space ninja's that are trying to
6:44
steal all of our pink lemonade and
6:47
and use it for for really not good
6:49
things. That's
6:52
terrible. And is that why you're hiding down here
6:54
and protecting the cave of all this lemonade
6:56
and the pink lemonade. That's
6:59
exactly right, Declin, Um,
7:02
we we could actually wait, Charlie,
7:05
what's going on over there in
7:07
the back of the cave. There
7:10
was allowed ruckus going on,
7:12
all this commotion and
7:14
howling, and it's
7:17
the space ninjas. Everyone
7:20
take cover. All
7:23
the dinosaurs had to run
7:25
and hide because the space Ninja's
7:28
were way too powerful for these dinosaurs.
7:36
I don't, I don't, And
7:39
they talked really fast. Oh,
7:43
Pickles, we gotta figure out a way to help these
7:45
dinosaurs. So the space then just don't steal all
7:47
the pink lemonade. What are we gonna do? Definitely
7:51
had to think, think, ding ding ding ding ding ding ding. He
7:54
knew that he had read all about like
7:56
things that spy kids doing, but
7:59
he hadn't made it on the spy kid team yet,
8:01
so he didn't know. He
8:03
couldn't call anyone. Wait a second, let me think, ding
8:05
ding ding ding ding dinging. Think we
8:07
could trick the space and then just into taking
8:10
uh something else. Oh,
8:12
let's run back to the house and grab some food coloring
8:15
and maybe we could turn some water pink
8:18
and then the space and just yeah, let's
8:20
go. Declan and
8:22
his cat right back to
8:24
the house. They had to go through the cave and out
8:27
of their blanket for it, and they had to find
8:29
some pink food coloring. There
8:32
it is. He filled
8:34
the bucket with water and and and
8:36
colored the water
8:39
to be pink so it looked just like the
8:41
pink lemonade. Perfect, let's
8:43
go. He grabbed the bucket and
8:45
down into the cave they went. They
8:47
had to trick the Space ninjas into
8:50
thinking their stuff was the real pink
8:52
lemonade, so he put
8:54
the bucket down right next
8:57
to the waterfall. It's working
8:59
book. Spaceically,
9:04
just talk really fast and kind of funny
9:07
because I think they're aliens.
9:11
They're picking up the bucket.
9:18
It's working. They're going all
9:21
right, ah, pink
9:23
dinosaurs, They're gone, They're gone, Wow,
9:28
How on earth did you do that? Well?
9:32
I well, we we tricked them into
9:34
thinking this stuff was
9:36
the real being lemonade, and they took it and
9:39
they're gone, wow,
9:41
Decline, that's that's great work.
9:44
We're really happy to have you on your team. Could uh,
9:46
could you actually come back here a
9:50
little more often and check on us to make
9:52
sure that we're okay because we might need your help
9:54
somewhere. That
9:56
would be awesome. And
9:59
that's the day that Declan and his
10:01
cat Pickles became a part
10:04
of the pink Dinosaurs squad.
10:07
You see, there's all kinds
10:09
of creatures for all kinds of different jobs, and
10:11
these pink dinosaurs had a very
10:14
important job for producing
10:17
all this delicious pink lemonade.
10:20
Well, friends, we'll
10:23
see you next time. Bye.
