Speaker 1 (00:04):
Hello Friends, it's Mr Jim and welcome back to kids
short stories. Do you know what makes these stories ten
times better? Yeah, listening with a friend. So right now
I want you to think of two friends that you
want your parents to text this episode two so that
you guys can listen to it together. Today's story comes
to us from landing. Hey, landon, he sent me an
awesome idea for a story, and you can too, just

(00:25):
out of the kid short stories dot com. Send me
your idea and maybe we'll turn it into an awesome adventure.
Are you guys ready for a pretty stinky adventure? Me Too.
Let's go. It was a beautiful fall day and landing

(00:45):
was getting ready for football. He loved playing football and
was so excited to finally be on a real team.
Have you ever played on a real team before? Maybe
soccer or basketball, baseball? There are so many different fun
sports to play, and landing really loved football. All the equipment,

(01:10):
like the helmet and the pads and the Jersey. Oh
it was so cool when you put it all on.
As his family loaded up in the car to drive
over to the field, he just couldn't wait to make
some awesome plays out with his team. All right, landing,
we're almost there. When we get there, do you need
help with carrying all your gear over to the field? No,

(01:33):
I don't need help, I got this, said Landon. There
was a lot of gear that he needed to carry
and it was pretty heavy, but landing was extra strong.
His parents parked the car and out he hopped, grabbing
his bag and throwing it over his back, and it
was really heavy. Oh Yeah, oh, it's it's not as

(01:56):
bad as it. I can do this, said landing. It
was very heavy, but he was going to do it.
He dragged the bag all the way to where his
team was. You see, they had to do some initial
warm ups before they would put on all their paths
and stuff, so all the equipment was in a big pile,

(02:17):
and so he added his bag next to the pile.
All Right, team, I need you to do three laps.
runny go, shouted the coach landing, and all the teams
started running around the field three laps. That was a
lot of running, but it was important to get ready
for the game. Hey, guys, how are you doing, said Landon,

(02:43):
as they were all running together. Hey, landing, we're doing great.
You Go. Oh this there's a lot of running. Oh,
holy cow, land and slow down. No Way, said Landon.
We gotta do this fast to get ready landing. And
the whole team was running their first lap around the field. Hey, landon,

(03:06):
who's that guy over there by our equipment? Landon turned
around and looked as he was running there was holy smokes,
that's that's a purple Ninja, said Landon. The Purple Ninja
dropped something amidst all the equipment that was in that
big pile, all their helmets and pads and all the

(03:28):
stuff for football, and landing was on the other side
of the field. Hurry, guys, we have to get over
there and see what he just dropped in there fast. Yeah,
but who is that? said one of his teammates. I
can't exactly answer that question right now, but true, he's

(03:49):
not a good guy. We gotta hurry. As they were
running around the field to get back to their equipment,
that Purple Ninja vanished. Landing was the first to arrive
of all the equipment. Oh, it smells horrible. What happened here?
Because they were digging around in their equipment, landing found it.

(04:11):
There's a stink bomb in here. Oh Gross. The whole
team started plugging their noses. Ah, that's is terrible. landed.
Did you know that guy? Is he like playing a
prank on us? said one of his teammates. That does

(04:31):
smell pretty bad, said Landon. No, well, yes, I do know,
I can't really talk about it. It's kind of a secret.
All I know is that we gotta clean this off
fast before that stink just settles into our equipment. That
would be terrible if we play the game smelling like that.
The whole team spread out their equipment, hoping that the

(04:51):
smell would go away, but unfortunately it only got worse. Coaches, coaches,
come to the center field, said the refs. The coaches
from both teams ran out to the center field talking
to the refs. This game has been canceled due to
smelly equipment on both teams. Go home and wash and

(05:14):
make sure that you're ready for the next game, said
the refs. Oh No, said Landon. He was so bummed
that their first game been canceled. Wouldn't that be really sad? Uh,
I don't like when my games get canceled. What about you? Yeah,

(05:35):
I mean either. Well, landing grabbed all of his equipment
and his parents said there's no way we're letting that
in our car. But what am I supposed to do
with it? Said Landon. Uh, gross, I guess we'll have
to maybe put the windows down as we're driving. All right,
let's hurry up and get home and get those things washed.

(05:57):
Landing loaded up the car with all that smelly equipment,
said goodbye to all of his teammates and off he
drove with his family. When they got home, they immediately
started washing the equipment, but there was nothing they could
do to get rid of that terrible smell. Have you
ever had something smell really stinky before? Yes, yeah, sometimes

(06:21):
my socks can get pretty stinky. Oh, gross. So we
need to put him in the washing machine right yeah,
and get them all clean. Well, football equipment and some
things are kind of hard to wash. So his parents
filled a big bucket up with water and soap and
told landon that all that stuff needed to soak in

(06:42):
that soapy water overnight, at least overnight, and hopefully that
would get rid of the smell. Unfortunately, day after day passed.
It had been a whole week and the smell had
only gotten worse. It had gotten so bad that they
had to keep all that stuff outside and worst of all,

(07:05):
it had affected every single team in the whole wide world.
All sports equipment had become completely smelly, stinky. H Bourbon Ninjas,
what have we done? This is such a marvelous plan

(07:26):
that WHO? We just could not have done this out.
You thanks. Well, yeah, those stink POPs worked perfectly when
we dropped him in all the sports equipment piles. And
now that all the teams are really smelly, there's no
more sport games, hi, which means no more fun. That

(07:47):
is perfect. And your shirts, that the stinky stuff. It
can't be washed away, right, your shirt a definitely. There's
no help in the online world that, as of her
existed that could get rid of that stink. or making
the world sticky. Oh No, what have the Purple Ninja's

(08:11):
done to make all of the sports equipment in the
World Stinky, canceling all of our games? This is terrible
and I think we're gonna need some help from h
q and the biology squad. We'll see you on the
next adventure. By great job. You listened all the way

(08:37):
to the end, and you know what time it is.
It's time for kid shout out. I want to say
hey to Wyatt from British Columbia, rowing from Portland Oregon,
Natalie from Perth Australia, Rosen Annie from Ontario, Luke from
North Carolina, Beckett and foster from Ontario, Kyle and Peyton

(08:57):

the kids short stories, family and on our spy team.
We could not stop doctor sinky breath and his crew
without you, my friends. Well, you have a super duper
day and I will see you on our next adventure. Bye.
