Are you guys ready for an alien ADVENTURER?

Speaker 1 (00:33):
Me too?

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Let's go. Today's story begins deep deep in the depths
of space.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
Past the Moon, past Mars.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
And past even Jupiter. There were a team of aliens,
very mean aliens that we're looking for a new planet
to live on.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
Roll Mast found all nor plose to love.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Plase pour the report for the best Lord Tolson, for
us to colonels all nor planet. As the alien named
Zippity Boo pulled the report. The findings were not good,
at least not good for me and you. It deployers
that planet Earth as the bust plus for us to

(01:29):
bull Except there is one problem moon. There is a problem.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
Well, it applurs that the cruisters that love on planet
Earth are much bigger than us, very much bigger than us,
and so.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
It must difficult for us to tout it's over.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
That is our job. You must fur out a roll
to lover the plow floor.

Speaker 4 (01:58):
Wait a second, what are these two aliens talking about?
One It sounds like they want to take over planet Earth.
Oh dear, But wait a second, they sound like they're
kind of really small. What do you think bibitty boot
is gonna do to level the playing field? Does that
even mean? Well, I'm not sure, but it was a

(02:21):
beautiful day for Aj and Joey. They were out and
about on their bikes. A love to ride around their neighborhood.
All right, we have to keep an eye out for
Professor Sticky Fingers, said Aj.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Sh.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
Yeah, but I have doctor Stinky Breath over here, said Joey.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
Sh. The two of them, I think.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
They were playing spy with their friends, and they were
trying to capture all the bad guys, you know, Doctor
Stinky Breath, Professor Sticky Fingers, the Purple Ninjas, everybody. And
it sounds like they've captured some and the game is
almost over. As they were zooming around the neighborhood on
their bikes with their walkie talkies, them and their friends

(03:04):
were having a ton of fun capturing all the bad guys.
But just then, a bright light flashed in the sky.
Sh Joey, did you see that? Said Aj? No, what
are you talking about? Sh I saw something like flash
in the sky, like, I don't know, an asteroid or

(03:24):
something was crashing down Louck.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
There it is again, sh I.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
Can't see it from where I'm talking about. Wait, I
can't tell. Is this for real or a part of
the game? Sh Joey, get over here. Now, this is
not a game, not a drill, this is real. Over
sh Aj was waving for Joey to get over here
on the hillside that was next to their neighborhood. As

(03:51):
he arrived, they watched something crash into the valley down below.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Dude, did you see that?

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Was that? Am I losing my mind? Was that real?
Said Joey? No, I mean yes, that was real. I
saw it too. What do we do? The two AJ
and Joey just looked at each other and they knew
exactly what to do without even saying a word. All right,
Let's move out, said Joey. The two of them put

(04:21):
their bikes down on the edge of the street and
carefully started walking down towards the valley. The thing that
had crashed down into the dirt, it made like a
big hole. It didn't look like it was like super big,
maybe the size of a basketball, but it made a
pretty big crater in the dirt because it looked like

(04:41):
it came from space. AJ and Joey carefully got closer
and closer. You weren't sure if it was gonna like
explode or something, but it was now just a few
feet in front of them. Joey, wait, hold on, I
don't know if we should get any closer. That thing
could be dangerous. There could be like an alien in there,

(05:03):
an alien, Joey laughed. Look how small that thing is.
There's no way that there's an alien in there. And
just then, that small basketball sized rock ship thing it
started to glow and a door started to open, and
a laser shot out right at Joey.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Joey look out, shouted AJ.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Bow, and just then Joey vanished.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
He was like evaporated from the laser. Dun, Dun, dun.
Joey where'd you go?

Speaker 2 (05:43):
Shouted Aj undurnsil.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
Wait, what where are you? Was that your voice?

Speaker 2 (05:53):
Laugh? Un turned, shouted Joey. AJ looked down at the ground.
He couldn't belie leave it.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Joey had been shrunk down.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
To the size of a grass upper AJ was frozen
in terror, and then he remembered, waysic, I gotta get
out of the way, what if it? Blasphem to AJ
dove off to the side in the grass to be
hidden from this laser shooting rock. And as AJ peered
through the grass leaves, he saw something step out of

(06:28):
that thing ah rout.

Speaker 5 (06:32):
The sounds and flows like a growed close for us
to love a plant, Planet Earth, our rubble for the
rest of mitle hah.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
That was the bibbitty boop h uh biboty. But I
don't know that alien from the ship earlier. I guess
he's crash landed onto planet Earth with the goal of
shrinking everyone into a much small size that would be
easier for them to defeat. What in the world are

(07:04):
AJ and Joey going to do? How can AJ save
Joey and return him to his normal size? I don't
know this one, guys. This is serious, Aj and Joey.
You're gonna have to work together to save the world.
We'll see you on the next episode of Kids Short Stories.

(07:32):
Great job, you listened all the way to the end,
and you know what, Tevi.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
