Speaker 1 (00:00):

And now I think it's time to get back to
the show.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Say that again, What do you mean the hourglass won't
be a problem because.

Speaker 3 (00:50):
I get to copy one of Glimmer's skills. Listen to this,
I can choose either folk slow, which she used on
us to slow us down, fast forward, which may time
pass faster for me whenever I want, or time lock,
which lets me create or destroy special locks that no
one else can use. Remember that's the skill she used

(01:11):
to lock Glitch's castle. She said no one would be
able to get in without that skill, and I have
a feeling it'll let me open hourglass too.

Speaker 4 (01:21):
Dude.

Speaker 3 (01:23):
Nice, that's amazing kid, right, timelock, it is.

Speaker 4 (01:30):
You made level up?

Speaker 3 (01:32):
Whoa, whoa, whoa?

Speaker 4 (01:36):
What is it now? Level eight? Level nine?

Speaker 5 (01:39):
I'm level twelve.

Speaker 6 (01:41):
Sheeesh, Kid's gonna be level kazillion by the time we
make it to Glitch.

Speaker 5 (01:45):
Oh hey, look at that.

Speaker 6 (01:46):
I went up a level two.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
Me too, bro, same here, and we all got a
piece of equipment.

Speaker 3 (01:52):
Yeah, we did. Check out my new boots of average
walking speed plus three to defense this time and plus
five percent walking speed.

Speaker 7 (02:03):
Oh yeah, rocking those kicks from heel to doe a little, bro.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
Are we gonna keep looking at Aiden's shoes or unfreeze
parking here?

Speaker 3 (02:12):
Oh yeah, sorry forgot for a second. Wow, he's pretty big.
Look at that strong chin in those chiseled muscles. Now
that's the kind of hero I want to look like
one day.

Speaker 5 (02:26):
Ouch, dude, made your damage to the Fils's what's wrong
with looking like me?

Speaker 3 (02:33):
Oh uh, I just meant like, um Mika helped me
out here.

Speaker 4 (02:38):
He meant you're too skinny and don't look like a hero,
Mika Marco.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
That's not what I meant at all. It's cool, dude.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
Not everyone can pull off this rugged, woodsy look.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
You know, I get it, Yeah, exactly. Anyway, Cain looks
like a real tough guy. Is he the leader of
your group? I bet he's soon for brave and generous
and honest and humble?

Speaker 4 (03:03):
And why didn't you just jen freeze him and see
for yourself?

Speaker 3 (03:07):
Yeah, here we go. Let's try out my new skill.

Speaker 5 (03:13):
Time luck Glitch, you foul find I shall not stop
until justice reigns once again in our lands. Where are you?
Where did you go?

Speaker 4 (03:31):
Hey, Kane, dude, run a swamp bro No glitch?

Speaker 5 (03:36):
What foul trickery is this? And who is this young
one standing beside you? He must be a minion of glitches.
You have no chance against a level sixty one iron
defenders such as myself, Sir, Stand back, everyone, whilst I've
last him with my justice.

Speaker 4 (03:56):
Strike kan knock it off?

Speaker 5 (04:00):
Hie hm, I seemed to have missed something. Would someone
please fill me in? That villain? How dare he tried
to erase the future? We must stop him? Friends?

Speaker 2 (04:17):
As our leader, Hi, Kane, over this, you're not the leader.

Speaker 4 (04:22):
We don't have a leader.

Speaker 5 (04:24):
Then, as the person who should be the leader, I
demand we go find Glitch immediately to put an end
to his dastardly plan.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
I don't think that's a good idea.

Speaker 5 (04:36):
Excuse me, young man. I think you should leave strategy
to those of us with experience.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
Uh Caine, dude, you really ought to listen to Aiden.

Speaker 6 (04:48):
Yeah, we all should. Aiden's proved he's got good ideas,
and he's got us out of more than one bad situation.
Matter of fact, you wouldn't be free right now if
it weren't.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
For that kid, exactly. I'd say it by this point.
If anyone's our leader, it's probably Aiden.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
That's preposterous.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
Trust me, Kane, You'll see. We'll tell you more about
what's going on while we walk. Can we please, please
please get out of this swamp now?

Speaker 4 (05:16):
Yeah, I'm with you. But where to?

Speaker 3 (05:19):
Does anyone have any idea where the fourth hero might be?

Speaker 6 (05:25):
The fairy net says there was a weird sighting of
a crystal over there by the sea salt caverns.

Speaker 5 (05:32):
The Sea Salt caverns, But that's near the Sapphire Sea.
It will take forever for us to get there.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
I don't think we have a choice. We'll need all
of the heroes working together to stop Glitch. We'll just
have to hurry and hope he can't erase the future
just yet.

Speaker 6 (05:48):
I mean that sounds good and all, but how do
we even know we'll be able to stop glitch?

Speaker 7 (05:54):
Like all four of us were working together last time
and it wasn't enough.

Speaker 6 (06:01):
Well, last time we didn't have the kid. I'm sure
he'll come up with something.

Speaker 4 (06:07):
Hmm.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
Maybe, But I have an idea. The sea Salt caverns
are near the Sapphire Sea.

Speaker 5 (06:14):
You said, I did, I mean I did.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
Then I think I know a stop we should make
along the way.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
Finally, I am never going into a swamp again.

Speaker 4 (06:36):
For realsies, man.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
I mean, I love nature and all that, but swamps
are at the bottom of the list.

Speaker 6 (06:42):
Dude, Hey, what's that over there?

Speaker 5 (06:47):
Whoa? What in the world is that?

Speaker 6 (06:50):
He's so ugly?

Speaker 5 (06:52):
He's so disgusting, he's so adrible.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
What Tane can't possibly think? This little worm grub thingy
is cute.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
It almost looks like a dog with no legs. I mean,
if that dog was also a worm with a giant
mouthful of teeth.

Speaker 5 (07:13):
Just look at him. He's beautiful. Come here by, Oh, Kane,
don't call it over here?

Speaker 4 (07:27):
What if it decides to follow.

Speaker 5 (07:29):
Us, decides to follow us, Mika, He's coming with us
from here on out. He's my pet. Kane.

Speaker 6 (07:38):
You don't even know what that thing is.

Speaker 5 (07:40):
Who cares? Some kind of rock worm? I'm guessing what
matters is he's amazing and he's cuddly and he's mine.
Who who Welcome to the party, my little friend. I'm
going to call you Carltar, Caultar and Kane, and that

(08:00):
have a ring to it. Come along, cal tour.

Speaker 7 (08:06):
We got Oh, yes, we thought, And you're coming with
us because you're the bestest boy in the whole white Well,
yes you are.

Speaker 4 (08:17):
Are you hungry boy?

Speaker 5 (08:18):
Mm? We're gonna have to find you some nice, yummy
food eat.

Speaker 7 (08:22):
Oh, yes we are.

Speaker 4 (08:25):
What just happened? I don't know, ma'am, but it looks
like we got a pet.

Speaker 6 (08:32):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
It's been a full day, I'll say, but I'm starting
to feel good about our chances of stopping glitch. Let
us have to pick up the pace out to the
sea salt caverns.

Speaker 4 (08:43):
Hey, Aiden, you.

Speaker 5 (08:44):
Said you need a stop.

Speaker 4 (08:45):
We should make What do you have in mind?

Speaker 3 (08:47):
If we'll be out near the Sapphire Sea. The underwater
city of Assuria is just off the coast and that's
where the great Sage Serenity lives. I have a hunt.
She might be able to help us, or at least
give us some advice that could help us against Glitch.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
Whoa the underwater city of Assuria.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
We're going fair. That's fire, bro, Well, actually it's water,
but you know what I mean?

Speaker 7 (09:11):
Kane?

Speaker 6 (09:11):
Did you hear that?

Speaker 4 (09:12):
We're going to Suria?

Speaker 5 (09:13):
Who's the smartest boy in the whole wide world? I
bet you're tired, little buddy. Yeah, you ready to go?
Betty by so easy? Boy, that's my hand. Dude, did
he just try to bite you? He didn't mean it.
Poor little guy's just grumpy. That's all he needs to

(09:34):
sleep before.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
All right, Kane, this is getting weird. He's a rock worm,
not a dog.

Speaker 5 (09:41):
Oh look at him. He's burrowing under the ground. That
must be how he sleeps. You go ahead and get
comfortable down there underground. Boy. I'll see you when we
wake up. Why are you all staring at me like that?

Speaker 6 (09:58):
If you don't know why, I don't think us explaining
it will do any good.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
Let's just get some sleep right on, sweet dreams, dudes.

Speaker 5 (10:07):
Ight, wha? What in the name of my ridiculously strong
Chin was that
