Speaker 2 (00:45):
It wasn't looking good. Petro was missing. Packs was still
down after getting hit with Agent eleven. Sonic Disruptor knocked
us in as night Wolves were out there waiting for us,
and I just knew Globotech would be there soon. I
could feel it. We couldn't waste time sitting around and
waiting for Packs to get better. My dad and I
would need to get ready for whatever happened next, and
that meant going back out into the Forbidden jungle. If

(01:08):
we wanted to have any chance, we'd need to give
ourselves some kind of advantage. I had an idea, but
I didn't think my dad was gonna like it.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
You wanna do what we need?

Speaker 2 (01:21):
To go back out into the jungle.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
I thought you wanted to get ready for Globotech.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
That's exactly what we're gonna do. But we can't fight
against globo Tech just by ourselves. There are way too
many agents, plus they've all got some crazy technology and weapons.

Speaker 4 (01:36):
I don't understand how going back out into the jungle
is gonna help us.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
It's too dangerous out there.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Yeah, I know, but if we can find some glow grapes.

Speaker 4 (01:47):
Way, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, let me get this straight.
You want us to go out into the most dangerous
part of the Lost World to try and find some grapes.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
Shroj sepit down Packs needs some rest.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
He's getting better, but if we don't let him sleep,
it'll be just.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
The three of us against all those agents, not to
mention Nactus and his night Wolves.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Oh sorry, sorry, Dad, You've gotta trust me. I told
you some of these gold grapes have some awesome powers.
They can help us.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
He's right, Roger, I've seen it. Okay, what should I
be looking for?

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Well, I think if we split up, we'll have the
best chance of finding some. Keep your eyes out for
any grapes that glow. We can still use the blue
ones as foods since we don't have much right now.
But what you really need to.

Speaker 3 (02:40):
Find are any yellow or red grapes.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
The yellow ones make you super strong, and the red
ones let you breathe fire.

Speaker 3 (02:47):
I still can't believe that. Oh, believe it. I was
the one who discovered what the red ones do.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Spiciest thing I've ever eaten my life. That's pretty much it.
I don't think the green ones will be much help.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
They let you hold your breath for a long time.
But if you find some no harm in hanging on
to them. Who knows that they might come in handy?

Speaker 3 (03:08):
All right, I think I got it.

Speaker 4 (03:10):
Blue and green might be helpful, but red and yellow
are the ones we really need, right.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
You got it? You too have to be careful out there.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
If you're not back in an hour, I'm coming looking
for you both. Try not to get too far away
from the temple, Okay, promise me, We promise, all right, dad.
Once we get past the tree line, we'll be back
in the Forbidden jungle. You haven't been down there as
long as I have. You're sure you can handle this?

Speaker 3 (03:39):
Yeah? Think so?

Speaker 1 (03:41):
What's wrong?

Speaker 4 (03:42):
You've just you've grown up a lot these past few weeks.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
I didn't know how you could be so brave. I'm
proud of you, son.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
Thanks you head that way, I'll head this way.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
Let's do it.

Speaker 4 (03:55):
Meet you back here in forty five minutes. Set your
walky watch, Okay, got it.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
Good luck. Let me just say this. The Lost World
is bad enough, the Forbidden Jungle is a whole other level.
But going into that jungle by myself was absolutely creepy.
It was so dark and evil looking. Every single plant
or flower I saw at thorns all over it. Even

(04:23):
the thorns had thorns on them. And the animals in there,
well not my favorites. I do not like this place.
I guess I didn't realize how much I had gotten
used to having packs and Petra with me. This is
just downright scary walking through here by myself. I hope
I can find some glow grapes soon.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Hi. What was that?

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Oh? Hey, it's a squirrel either, you're mister squirrel. It's
nice to see something friendly in year how uh oh, okay,
then I'm just gonna walk that way away. From you
your tree, Sorry to bother you.

Speaker 3 (05:09):
What was that?

Speaker 2 (05:10):
I heard of werewolves before?

Speaker 3 (05:12):
Like a where's squirrel?

Speaker 1 (05:14):
Is that even a thing?

Speaker 2 (05:16):
You'd not like this place?

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Oway?

Speaker 2 (05:22):
I think there might be some grapes over there, let's see, yes, yes,
look at this, some red and yellow.

Speaker 4 (05:30):
Perfect.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
It looks like one red and two yellows.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
So that ought to help a lot.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
Oh, perfect timing. Looks like it's almost been forty five minutes. Okay,
let's grab these grapes and get back to the temple.

Speaker 4 (05:48):
Oh, come on, there's got to be some grapes around
here somewhere.

Speaker 3 (05:54):
What job job? Don't know even here's this bad? Hello?
I can hear you, Roger. Goodness, listen. We've got some helicopters.

Speaker 4 (06:12):
Here face camp.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
They're going to fly us out. Did you Miles? Yes, yes,
we found Miles.

Speaker 4 (06:23):
Okay, you get back up here quickly.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Helicopters won't they dropping? Time to go?

Speaker 4 (06:34):
But I don't even know how to give back up there.
We're down in the lost.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
World again here about world? Hello? Hello? Is anyone there? Ah?

Speaker 4 (06:50):
The fact that I was able to get any signal
at all is strange. I wonder, huh is that a cave?
Now what could be in there? Wow, definitely a cave.

(07:12):
And look at this a cluster of blue glow grapes.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
I'll go ahead and grab these.

Speaker 4 (07:20):
Wait, this one looks a little strange.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
What is this?

Speaker 4 (07:31):
Oh oh, I guess I shouldn't have pulled that grape
vine out.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
Could have been worse. But oh, oh wow? Is that
is that daylight up there? It is? That's daylight all
the way up there. I found a way back to
the surface. Miles Roger, are you out there?

Speaker 2 (08:00):
I'm here Mom, just waiting on Dad. He should be
back any minute.

Speaker 3 (08:07):
Miles Rachel, I found a way out. Huh.

Speaker 4 (08:15):
Hey, there's a cane about ten minutes that way cause
the rock slide. I can see daylight up above. I
think we can climb our way out of here.

Speaker 3 (08:31):
That's awesome.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
Oh, once we get Petro, we are out of here.

Speaker 4 (08:35):
Oh well, I'm not sure that's a good idea.

Speaker 3 (08:40):
Huh.

Speaker 4 (08:41):
I think it's too dangerous for us to wait here
for Globotech to come after us.

Speaker 3 (08:47):
We should leave while we have the chance.

Speaker 4 (08:49):
Plus, there are helicopters up at the base camp to
take us back to the airport so we can go home.

Speaker 3 (08:57):
But that.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
I can't leave Petra.

Speaker 4 (09:02):
Listen, buddy, I know you want to help, but we
gotta do the smart thing here.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
No, I'm not leaving without her. I wouldn't have survived
a song if it wasn't for her help. She's my friend.
I'm doing whatever it tastes a savor.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
You know what, Son, You're right, You are absolutely right.

Speaker 4 (09:23):
We're not leaving until we can all get out, and
that includes packs too.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
Thanks Seth. Looks like you found some grapes too.

Speaker 4 (09:31):
Oh oh yeah, I almost forgot here, just some blue
ones except for this really big one.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
What did you say the purple grapes do? Again?

Speaker 4 (09:43):
That?

Speaker 3 (09:44):
What the purple glow grapes? Look? I don't remember what
you said the purple ones do?

Speaker 2 (09:51):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (09:52):
I didn't know there were purple glow grapes.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
What could.

Speaker 4 (09:58):
Miles Roger look over there?

Speaker 2 (10:04):
Oh great, it's Globo Tech. Come on, dad, we've got
to get back inside the temple.
