Speaker 1 (00:04):
Hello friends, it's mister Jim and welcome back to Kids
Short Stories. Guess what if you are on our Spiology
Squad team, That means after this episode, we have an
episode ready for you on the Spiology Squad podcast. You
can check that link in the show notes below or
search for Biology Squad wherever you listen to podcasts. Well, friends,

(00:26):
are you ready to listen to part two of Lachlan's
adventure at the beach? How in the world are they
gonna save all those animals? Let's go.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
We have some more stink bombs ready to drop into
the ocean if you want us to.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
They're ninjas, of course I do. Drop as many stinky
bombs that you have. We need to make the ocean
as stinky as possible to get all those animals out
the water and their eye all the people in z
O World. Yes, drops the stink bombs.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
Now, okay, we'll start throwing them out of the blimp
as fast as we can.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
Come on, guys, the Purple Ninjas started grabbing all these
I don't know, they were like whitish balls, and they
were throwing them out into the water. They called them
stinky bombs. Do you think that's what's making the water
smell so terrible? I think it is. Lachlan and his
family had been racing around the beach with buckets and

(01:34):
scooping up the water from the ocean to dump on
all the critters and fish that had come out of
the ocean. They're not gonna last long in this hot sand.
We gotta find a way to save them, shouted Lachlan.
Keep dumping the water on them. I'm gonna run back
to the car and get my walkie talkie to call
HQ hold on. Lachlan raced back to the car as

(01:57):
fast as he could. He grabbed onto the walkie talkie
and call that to HQ.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
SH.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
This is Lachlan. We need help at the beach over Lachland.
What seems to be the problem over sh It's it's crazy.
I've never seen anything like this, But like all the
fish and whales and dolphins and everybody's getting out of
the ocean. It's like they're afraid to be in the
water or something in the water smells absolutely super stinky.

(02:26):
Sh Did you say the water smells stinky there too?
Oh dear, Yes, We've had multiple reports of the ocean
smelling terrible and water creatures climbing out of the water. Sh.
Is there anything that we can do to help them
or get rid of all that stinky water? Sh? This

(02:48):
biology squad has been working on a solution using their
bubble berry soap that is safe for the water and
will remove all that terrible stinky smell. We'll have a
sends you some immediately over and out sh. Lachlan raced
back to the beach to help his family keep all

(03:08):
those animals alive. It's not safe for whales or dolphins
or a lot of those animals to get stuck on
the beach because they need to stay wet in the water.
As Lachlan was heading back to the beach, he saw
something in the distance. Wait a second, is that the
purple blimp? Holy smokes us? Right over there. I can

(03:31):
see them dropping something into the ocean. That's gotta be
what's making it so stinky, said Lachlan. He knew that
he had to put on his jetpack and get up
there and try and stop them before it was too late. Sh.
He blasted off from the beach, headed right towards the
purple blimp. As he flew over his family, he shouted

(03:52):
down and said spiology squad is sending a drone with
some kind of magical soap to clean the animal and
the water. It's safe for them. But when the drone comes,
it should have instructions. Please, I gotta go stop the blimp.
I'll be right back. Even though it was Lachlan that
was on the spy team, his family had been a

(04:14):
part of it since day one, and so they understood
the spy mission at hand. Lachlan zoomed off towards the
blimp and reached for his net blaster from his backpack
and pulled it out, and he thought, maybe, just maybe
he could catch all those things that they were dumping
into the ocean.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
All right, guys, keep those stinking bobs dropping. Hey, what
are you holding over there?

Speaker 1 (04:41):
Just you have the instructions for how to make the
sticky bobs. Where do you want me to put this
piece of paper that has our instructions to how to
make them?

Speaker 2 (04:51):
I don't know, Just just set them down somewhere. We
gotta get all these sticky bombs into the ocean fast.
Come on, just set it out over there.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
The Purple nin had gathered a huge pile of these
super stinky, stinky bombs and were dropping them into the ocean.
Lachlan aimed his net blaster at the giant pile of
stinky bombs. Ready name go too. As the net blasted

(05:21):
out of his blaster, it created this giant net that
was headed right for all the Purple Ninjas and their
stinky bombs. Eh what is that thing? Everybody duck? The
Purple Ninjas all ducked and covered, protecting themselves. But unfortunately
for them, Lachlan captured all of the stinky bombs in

(05:44):
his net as he pulled the rope that was connected
to the net and pulled it all off of the
Purple blimp's edge. The Purple Ninjas couldn't believe it.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Oh no, he just got all the stinky bombs. Oh no,
we're gonna have to make them all over it again.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Pepper Ninjas is a problem over here, Hey.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
Doctor Sticky Breth. Unfortunately we just lost all of our
sticky bombs. But don't worry, we can make some more.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
What you're talking about? You lost them?

Speaker 2 (06:17):
Well, somebody blasted a net up here and I grabbed
them all. But who has those instructions? Why don't you
put them again? Uh?

Speaker 1 (06:27):
You mean the one that I put over there. It's
it's not there anymore. A giant gust of wind came
through right then and blew those paper instructions right down
into the ocean. Peber Ninas, don't tell me that was

(06:48):
the only copy we have of the instructions of how
to make the sticky bombs.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
Okay, I won't tell you that.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
But more instructions where the copy?

Speaker 2 (07:02):
We don't have another copy because that was the only
that was the only one paper Nincha.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
As Lachlan was able to fly that giant net full
of all those stinky bombs back to the beach, he
was greeted by his family working very hard using all
of that magical bubble berry soap that's biology squad had sent.
They had cleaned off all the critters and this was
safe soap. Not all soap is safe for critters, but

(07:34):
this one was extra super duper safe, and they cleaned
off all the stinky and it even cleaned up all
the stinky from the ocean. Lachlan, you did it. How
did you get all those things from the blimp? They? Oh,
they smell terrible, said his parents. I know they smell terrible,
but I'll probably attach on to this drone here and

(07:55):
then it'll bring it back to HQ and they'll dispose
of it. And wow, you guys have been working hard
saving all these animals. They look so much happier as
they were pushing all the creatures back into the ocean
one by one, they waved their fins and looked like
they were saying thank you. Finally, towards the end of
the afternoon, Lachlan and his family stood and looked at

(08:19):
each other. Their job had finally finished. They had helped
all those animals get back into the ocean, and they
had even cleaned the water along the way. Wow, that
was a crazy beach day, said Lachlan. Yes it was.
That was the stinkiest beach day I've ever had, said
his parents. Wow, what an amazing adventure. That maybe the

(08:43):
end of the story, but I think it's just the
beginning of their awesome beach adventures that lie ahead the end.
Great time, you listened all the way to the end,
and you know what time it is. It's time for

(09:03):
kid shout out. I want to say hey to Henry
and Hugo from Canada, Lorena from North Carolina, I left

Cooper from Elburn, Illinois, Mason from Illinois, Sace from Belgium,

day and I will see you on our next adventure. Bye.
