00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:03.200
<v Speaker 1>And here is today's story request. Hi.

2
00:00:03.319 --> 00:00:03.680
<v Speaker 2>Lucy.

3
00:00:04.320 --> 00:00:07.759
<v Speaker 1>Parth became a Premium member as part of his Christmas gift.

4
00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:11.160
<v Speaker 1>Parth lives in California with his mom and dad, his

5
00:00:11.240 --> 00:00:15.439
<v Speaker 1>little sister, Annya, and his dog Milo. Parth loves telling

6
00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:18.320
<v Speaker 1>jokes and playing the piano. He would love a story

7
00:00:18.320 --> 00:00:21.839
<v Speaker 1>that involves Milo and Ptarth getting sucked into a virtual

8
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:35.039
<v Speaker 1>video game world. Everybody knows how video games work, and

9
00:00:35.240 --> 00:00:39.159
<v Speaker 1>Parth was quite sure this wasn't right. What you're doing, path,

10
00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:43.079
<v Speaker 1>asked Milo, His dog sat upon the floor. Whyn't you

11
00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:48.039
<v Speaker 1>playing a game? Well, because it's not my game, insisted Parth.

12
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:51.039
<v Speaker 1>Perched on the edge of his seat. The controller was

13
00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:53.880
<v Speaker 1>in his hands, but all he was doing was staring

14
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:57.759
<v Speaker 1>at the screen. Sure it's your game. Aweso, you loud

15
00:00:57.799 --> 00:01:01.399
<v Speaker 1>it into the console, said Milo, thinking his owner was

16
00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:04.599
<v Speaker 1>just playing with him. I loaded my game, but that's

17
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:08.519
<v Speaker 1>not what's on this TV, said Ptarth. I've never seen

18
00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:12.120
<v Speaker 1>this before in my life. On screen were the words

19
00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:18.079
<v Speaker 1>Virtual Empire, accompanied by some sinister electronic music. Beneath the

20
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:22.359
<v Speaker 1>game's title was a button that simply said enter. Wow,

21
00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:27.000
<v Speaker 1>I saw you, Lucky, said Milo, whatever's happened? You get

22
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:30.239
<v Speaker 1>to try a whole new game for free. Well, I guess, so,

23
00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:34.760
<v Speaker 1>said Ptarth, warming to the idea. He'd really wanted to

24
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:37.920
<v Speaker 1>play his favorite game, but maybe this wouldn't be so bad.

25
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:42.040
<v Speaker 1>He picked up the console and selected the enter button. Okay,

26
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:45.599
<v Speaker 1>he said, let's see what it's like. That should have

27
00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:49.959
<v Speaker 1>been straightforward enough, but instead the air raced from his

28
00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:53.200
<v Speaker 1>lungs as he and Milo were wrenched forward into a

29
00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:57.760
<v Speaker 1>dazzling light, leaving behind the controller to drop onto the

30
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:01.760
<v Speaker 1>empty seat where Ptarth had been sitting. With a thump,

31
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:08.319
<v Speaker 1>Ptarth landed heavily on to a rocky surface. Ouch, he complained. Puff,

32
00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:12.560
<v Speaker 1>came Milo's voice, his familiar nose appearing around a boulder.

33
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:17.080
<v Speaker 2>Where are we? I don't know, admitted Ptarth. It looks

34
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:20.840
<v Speaker 2>like a moon. Hey what are you wearing? You look so.

35
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:24.680
<v Speaker 1>Cool, beamed Milo as he bounced up, tail wagging.

36
00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:26.039
<v Speaker 2>Is that chit pack?

37
00:02:26.759 --> 00:02:29.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, said Ptarth as he ran his hands

38
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:31.000
<v Speaker 1>down the strange clothes.

39
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:32.719
<v Speaker 2>There was a band.

40
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:36.879
<v Speaker 1>Around his wrist with three bright buttons, one blue, one yellow,

41
00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:40.840
<v Speaker 1>and one red. You're wearing a new collar, am I,

42
00:02:41.319 --> 00:02:44.520
<v Speaker 1>said Milo, trying to look down. Although it's hard to

43
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:47.400
<v Speaker 1>look at your own neck. A rumble made them both

44
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:50.120
<v Speaker 1>look up to see a wide spaceship coming in to.

45
00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Land near by. Paff Are we in that game?

46
00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Asked Milo. I'm starting to think so, replied Ptarth. As

47
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:03.360
<v Speaker 1>the spaceship touched down. Wasn't a game called something Empire?

48
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:04.719
<v Speaker 2>Asked Milo?

49
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:09.199
<v Speaker 1>As a doorway opened on the ship's side. Virtual Empire

50
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:10.479
<v Speaker 1>corrected Ptarth.

51
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:11.479
<v Speaker 2>Why do you.

52
00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:16.319
<v Speaker 1>Ask, Well, don't empires have soldiers, said the dog. And

53
00:03:16.439 --> 00:03:19.319
<v Speaker 1>if so, does that make them the good guys.

54
00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:22.360
<v Speaker 2>Or the bad guys? Finished Ptarth.

55
00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:25.840
<v Speaker 1>A flurry of laser bolts shut across the Moon's surface

56
00:03:25.879 --> 00:03:29.479
<v Speaker 1>from the ship, blasting into the surrounding rocks and sending

57
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:33.800
<v Speaker 1>Ptarth and Milo scurrying. They're bad guys. They're bad guys,

58
00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:38.400
<v Speaker 1>barked Milo, as more laser fire streaked after them. We've

59
00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:40.759
<v Speaker 1>got to get out of here, said Ptarth, and in

60
00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:44.560
<v Speaker 1>an instant, his jetpack was blazing, shooting him across the

61
00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:48.360
<v Speaker 1>Moon's surface at speed. It took him completely by surprise,

62
00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:52.240
<v Speaker 1>and he'd left Milo behind. With a little difficulty, he

63
00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:55.599
<v Speaker 1>managed to turn himself around to race back again. It

64
00:03:55.719 --> 00:03:58.080
<v Speaker 1>was easy to locate Milo as he was at the

65
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:01.800
<v Speaker 1>receiving end of all the laser fire. Luckily, his small

66
00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:04.400
<v Speaker 1>size was keeping him out of harm's way. As he

67
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:07.639
<v Speaker 1>dodged between the rocks, he noticed that Milo was heading

68
00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:11.719
<v Speaker 1>towards a canyon with steep sides, about to get himself trapped.

69
00:04:12.360 --> 00:04:15.599
<v Speaker 1>Not if I can help it, thought Ptarth. Let's see

70
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:18.519
<v Speaker 1>if any of these buttons do anything. He held up

71
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:21.600
<v Speaker 1>his wrists before him and selected the blue one. A

72
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:25.480
<v Speaker 1>fizzing ball of blue energy crackled to life around his hand.

73
00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:26.920
<v Speaker 2>This looked promising.

74
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:30.600
<v Speaker 1>He took aim at the leading soldiers, some sort of

75
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:35.399
<v Speaker 1>humanoid robot. A jet of blue energy burst forth from

76
00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:39.360
<v Speaker 1>his fist, blasting the robo soldiers to pieces. Each one

77
00:04:39.399 --> 00:04:42.639
<v Speaker 1>turned into a tiny blue crystal that then faded away.

78
00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:45.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm scoring points, He realized.

79
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:48.120
<v Speaker 1>He was getting the hang of this now, and was

80
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:51.839
<v Speaker 1>soon confidently clearing away the soldiers as he zoomed back

81
00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:55.360
<v Speaker 1>and forth. In no time, there were none left. That

82
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:59.040
<v Speaker 1>was awesome, said Milo, once Ptarth touched down.

83
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:00.600
<v Speaker 2>Did you do it?

84
00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:03.680
<v Speaker 1>The jetpack and the blaster just worked by me thinking

85
00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:07.879
<v Speaker 1>about them, Just worked by me thinking about them, he explained,

86
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:11.199
<v Speaker 1>Although I had to choose the blaster from this wristband.

87
00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:14.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh how come I haven't got anything as good as that,

88
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:15.560
<v Speaker 1>grumbled Milo.

89
00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:18.759
<v Speaker 2>Sorry, shrugged Ptarth. I don't know.

90
00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:24.120
<v Speaker 1>Large lettering filled the sky before them, presumably showing their score.

91
00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Well what next, asked Milo, looking around. Why do we

92
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:32.439
<v Speaker 1>want to go now? I didn't see anything from up there,

93
00:05:32.920 --> 00:05:36.639
<v Speaker 1>said Ptarth, So maybe we ought to check out that spaceship.

94
00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:40.319
<v Speaker 1>This they did, half expecting to find a pilot or

95
00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:41.879
<v Speaker 1>more soldiers on board.

96
00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:43.959
<v Speaker 2>Instead, it was empty.

97
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:48.879
<v Speaker 1>Can you fly it, asked Milo, looking at the complicated console.

98
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:52.240
<v Speaker 1>Only one way to find out, grinned Ptarth as he

99
00:05:52.279 --> 00:05:56.040
<v Speaker 1>got into the pilot's seat. Although it appeared difficult, Parth

100
00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:59.360
<v Speaker 1>had no trouble at all. I guess these things are

101
00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:03.759
<v Speaker 1>easier and games, he said. They lifted away from the Moon,

102
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:06.720
<v Speaker 1>allowing them to take in the sight of a large

103
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:10.199
<v Speaker 1>yellow and orange planet alongside it. It looked like the

104
00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:13.720
<v Speaker 1>sensible place to go, but that meant first dealing with

105
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:17.360
<v Speaker 1>a swarm of red spacecraft that were buzzing towards them.

106
00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:21.519
<v Speaker 1>This must be light level two, suggested Milo. And that's

107
00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:24.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot of ships. Well here is helping we get

108
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:26.959
<v Speaker 1>more than one life in this game, said Ptarth, as

109
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:30.639
<v Speaker 1>the red spacecraft began firing on them. Milo pulled and

110
00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:34.439
<v Speaker 1>twisted the controls, dodging and weaving around the attacks. Can't

111
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:38.040
<v Speaker 1>we fight back, yelped Milo. Hold on, I'm still getting

112
00:06:38.120 --> 00:06:42.399
<v Speaker 1>used to this, Parth replied, let me try this. Green

113
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:45.879
<v Speaker 1>laser blasts erupted from the sides of the ship, peppering

114
00:06:45.879 --> 00:06:49.879
<v Speaker 1>the Imperial ships and causing several to explode. They instantly

115
00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:54.720
<v Speaker 1>turned into small red crystals. Keep it going, pof cheered

116
00:06:54.759 --> 00:06:58.639
<v Speaker 1>Milo as something jolted the ship, shaking them in their seats.

117
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:02.079
<v Speaker 1>We were hit, but I think we're okay, said Ptarth

118
00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:04.360
<v Speaker 1>as he continued spiraling through the enemy.

119
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:07.000
<v Speaker 2>More and more of the red craft.

120
00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:10.079
<v Speaker 1>Were meeting their end as the green laser fire found them.

121
00:07:10.519 --> 00:07:13.600
<v Speaker 1>Another hit lit up several warning lights in the cockpit,

122
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:17.040
<v Speaker 1>but Ptarth didn't seem to notice. He was focused on

123
00:07:17.160 --> 00:07:21.720
<v Speaker 1>clearing the ships. Just two more to go, shouted Milo. Steady,

124
00:07:21.959 --> 00:07:25.040
<v Speaker 1>you got them, few, steady.

125
00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:29.879
<v Speaker 2>You got them. You grinned Parth. That was hard.

126
00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:34.079
<v Speaker 1>Out of the window, their updated score was displayed beside them,

127
00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:37.439
<v Speaker 1>just before the planet. It was much closer now, so

128
00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Ptarth steered them into the upper atmosphere.

129
00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:41.439
<v Speaker 2>They were soon.

130
00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Looking down at the biggest city they'd ever seen, taking

131
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:47.160
<v Speaker 1>up all the land as far as the eye could see.

132
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:51.319
<v Speaker 1>A tall tower surrounded by a network of smaller towers

133
00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:55.519
<v Speaker 1>and domes drew their attention. So Ptarth headed towards that,

134
00:07:55.879 --> 00:07:58.360
<v Speaker 1>but as he did so, the ship was struck by

135
00:07:58.399 --> 00:08:02.800
<v Speaker 1>something unseen. You've lost control, shouted Ptarth in panic.

136
00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:04.040
<v Speaker 2>There is no power.

137
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:09.040
<v Speaker 1>Can't you restart it? Squelled Milo. It's not responding, said

138
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:10.360
<v Speaker 1>ptarth' through gritted teeth.

139
00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:12.240
<v Speaker 2>We're going to crash.

140
00:08:12.639 --> 00:08:16.879
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, whimpered Milo, as the ground rushed towards them.

141
00:08:17.279 --> 00:08:19.639
<v Speaker 1>But Ptarth wasn't going to wait for that to happen.

142
00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:23.319
<v Speaker 1>He grabbed Milo and ran to the ship's doorway, forcing

143
00:08:23.319 --> 00:08:24.279
<v Speaker 1>it open, and then.

144
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:25.160
<v Speaker 2>Jumped into the sky.

145
00:08:25.800 --> 00:08:28.720
<v Speaker 1>What are you doing, screamed the dog in terror, as

146
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:33.159
<v Speaker 1>they plunged downwards. I got a jippack, remember, laughed Ptarth,

147
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:35.879
<v Speaker 1>and fired it up. As the ship came down with

148
00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:39.440
<v Speaker 1>an explosion below them. Ptarth guided them down to the

149
00:08:39.480 --> 00:08:43.480
<v Speaker 1>center of a wide plaza right before the great tower.

150
00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:47.679
<v Speaker 1>Blaster fire greeted them, immediately fired by an army of

151
00:08:47.720 --> 00:08:51.759
<v Speaker 1>defensive robuts. Unfortunately, there was no cover for the pair

152
00:08:51.799 --> 00:08:54.919
<v Speaker 1>of them to hide behind. Should have landed somewhere house,

153
00:08:55.240 --> 00:08:58.879
<v Speaker 1>said Milo. Too late for that now, said Ptarth. He

154
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:02.000
<v Speaker 1>reached his wrist and press the yellow button. This time,

155
00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:05.639
<v Speaker 1>a yellow dome of energy appeared around them, both safely

156
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:09.519
<v Speaker 1>absorbing the laser fire being poured upon them. That's useful,

157
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:13.360
<v Speaker 1>said Ptarth, some sort of shield, but it's not stopping

158
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:14.799
<v Speaker 1>any of them from attacking us.

159
00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:16.360
<v Speaker 2>How come I haven't got.

160
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Any buttons, moaned Milo. If I'll add some buttons, maybe

161
00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:24.039
<v Speaker 1>I could help. I've been pretty useless, sofa. I'll try

162
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:26.960
<v Speaker 1>this red button, said Ptarth. Maybe this will help us.

163
00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:30.759
<v Speaker 1>What happened next wasn't what either of them had expected.

164
00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:34.919
<v Speaker 1>The yellow dome vanished, but all the enemy's laser fire

165
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:38.559
<v Speaker 1>appeared to be frozen in mid air. All that moved

166
00:09:38.639 --> 00:09:41.799
<v Speaker 1>was Ptarth and Milo, circling around one another as they

167
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:46.200
<v Speaker 1>rose into the air. I'm getting bigger, shouted Milo. And

168
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:51.720
<v Speaker 1>changing shape me too, said Ptarth with excitement. In seconds,

169
00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:56.200
<v Speaker 1>they were transformed. Ptarth had become a towering, gigantic battle bot,

170
00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:01.000
<v Speaker 1>heavily armored and extremely tough. Meanwhile, Milo had become a

171
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:05.600
<v Speaker 1>colossal dog like monster standing on two legs. We look

172
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:09.679
<v Speaker 1>so great, roared Milo, as the laser fire unfroze.

173
00:10:09.919 --> 00:10:11.440
<v Speaker 2>Suddenly they were being.

174
00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Struck by thousands of direct hits pat Dickles, said Ptarth, Hey, poff,

175
00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:20.240
<v Speaker 1>You know what giant robots the monsters do in the movies,

176
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:25.720
<v Speaker 1>asked Milo. Yeah, I do, said Ptarth. They stomp everything flat.

177
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:30.039
<v Speaker 1>They sprang into action, either sweeping the robot army aside

178
00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:33.799
<v Speaker 1>or pummeling it into the ground. Now I feel useful,

179
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:36.919
<v Speaker 1>bellowed Milo as he got to work on tackling some

180
00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:40.480
<v Speaker 1>of the bigger bag guys. Working together, they cleared the

181
00:10:40.519 --> 00:10:43.759
<v Speaker 1>plaza of all the danger, claiming the crystals as they

182
00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:44.080
<v Speaker 1>did so.

183
00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:48.200
<v Speaker 2>Their latest score flashed up in the sky. Is that it,

184
00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:50.240
<v Speaker 2>asked Milo? Have we won?

185
00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so, said Ptarth, pointing to the tower.

186
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:56.399
<v Speaker 1>It was much bigger than they were, and it was

187
00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:00.679
<v Speaker 1>changing shape into the biggest battle robot imaginable.

188
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:04.200
<v Speaker 2>Foolish heroes, boomed its voice.

189
00:11:04.480 --> 00:11:08.159
<v Speaker 1>I am the Electric Emperor, and I crush all those

190
00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:10.559
<v Speaker 1>that stand in the way of my empire.

191
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:14.559
<v Speaker 2>Prepare for your doom.

192
00:11:14.879 --> 00:11:18.240
<v Speaker 1>Time for an upgrade, said Ptarth as a gigantic energy

193
00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:19.639
<v Speaker 1>sword appeared in his hand.

194
00:11:20.039 --> 00:11:22.039
<v Speaker 2>How did you do that, screeched Milo.

195
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:27.399
<v Speaker 1>I want a sword. Use your imagination encouraged Ptarth. Thinking

196
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:31.799
<v Speaker 1>about it, helps it appear, Okay, said the giant Milo,

197
00:11:32.440 --> 00:11:33.240
<v Speaker 1>concentrating on.

198
00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:34.039
<v Speaker 2>His empty paw.

199
00:11:34.559 --> 00:11:38.639
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't a sword that appeared, but an enormous battle axe.

200
00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:41.399
<v Speaker 2>Okay, this will do, he said.

201
00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:46.120
<v Speaker 1>The Electric Emperor strode towards them on mountainous legs, making

202
00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:49.519
<v Speaker 1>the pair of them, even at their colossal size, look small.

203
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:52.360
<v Speaker 1>One of them went to the left, the other to

204
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:55.679
<v Speaker 1>the right. With his attention divided, they found it easier

205
00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:58.639
<v Speaker 1>to slice away at the momental legs. Is this the

206
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:01.720
<v Speaker 1>end of level, boss, asked Milo, as he landed an

207
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:06.000
<v Speaker 1>impressive hack. I guess so, said Ptarth, managing a blow

208
00:12:06.039 --> 00:12:09.480
<v Speaker 1>of his own. Then, in a blistering frenzy of sparks,

209
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:13.320
<v Speaker 1>the Electric Emperor let out a horrified cry and began

210
00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:17.480
<v Speaker 1>to topple forward. Look out, yelled Ptarth, ducking to the side.

211
00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:21.559
<v Speaker 1>The Emperor's epic form was beaten, crashing down to the

212
00:12:21.559 --> 00:12:25.080
<v Speaker 1>plaza below in a string of explosions that shook the

213
00:12:25.080 --> 00:12:28.519
<v Speaker 1>ground beneath her feet. Once the smoke and dust had cleared,

214
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:32.240
<v Speaker 1>there was a stupendous golden crystal waiting to be collected.

215
00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:36.480
<v Speaker 1>We've won, said Ptarth as he claimed their prize. This

216
00:12:36.559 --> 00:12:40.159
<v Speaker 1>instantly triggered the same rushing sensation that had pulled them

217
00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:42.799
<v Speaker 1>into the game in the first place, although this time

218
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:47.039
<v Speaker 1>it operated in reverse. Ah, we're back in the real world,

219
00:12:47.440 --> 00:12:50.320
<v Speaker 1>said Milo, sat on the floor before the TV screen.

220
00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:53.000
<v Speaker 1>I was just getting used to that. Hey, look at

221
00:12:53.000 --> 00:12:56.000
<v Speaker 1>the screen, said Ptarth, back at his seat. We want

222
00:12:56.080 --> 00:13:00.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot of crystals. Yeah, I suppose so, said myleot.

223
00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:03.759
<v Speaker 1>But it's all over now. As he said this, the

224
00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:08.559
<v Speaker 1>screen changed. It said next level. The two of them

225
00:13:08.759 --> 00:13:13.440
<v Speaker 1>grinned widely. That's more like it, said Milo as he

226
00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:19.600
<v Speaker 1>watched Ptarth pick up the controller and press okay the

227
00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:20.960
<v Speaker 1>and
