1
00:00:04,879 --> 00:00:08,039
Speaker 1: He Hello, friends from across the nation and around the world.

2
00:00:08,279 --> 00:00:12,160
I'm Martin and you are listening to Dad's bedtime stories.

3
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,199
Tonight we're going to be headed back into the Spaceship universe,

4
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:20,440
which if you've never listened before, it's completely fine. Well

5
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:22,800
you really need to know is you are a kid

6
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,719
with a magic spaceship and you go explore different planets

7
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,120
and stuff. And if it's the first time you're listening

8
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:33,359
and you like the episode, there's like four hundred more

9
00:00:33,399 --> 00:00:39,119
almost Spaceship episodes alone, so you can check those out too. Now,

10
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:41,520
as most of you know, I love to take listener

11
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:46,039
suggestions for my episodes most of the time, and today's

12
00:00:46,039 --> 00:00:49,960
no exception, So let's check out what we have on

13
00:00:50,039 --> 00:00:50,880
the voicemail.

14
00:00:52,439 --> 00:00:56,039
Speaker 2: Hi, my name is Landon and this is my sister Sullivan.

15
00:00:56,719 --> 00:01:01,600
So we would like to request a story of you

16
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:07,079
go to this world called pet World and you meet

17
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:12,159
this girl named Landon who owns pet World. So basically

18
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:16,239
what you do in pet World is you get a

19
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,680
pet and you get to name it, and then you

20
00:01:19,719 --> 00:01:23,400
get to train it for these big obstacles that they

21
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:28,400
do every year and well like every month, and so

22
00:01:30,359 --> 00:01:36,519
you get to train with Sullivan who's the trainer, and

23
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,280
you get to be really good friends with Sullivan and

24
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:44,159
Landon and some of the pets that are there are

25
00:01:45,239 --> 00:01:51,040
like they have these like magical powers that they can

26
00:01:51,159 --> 00:01:58,920
like wield ice and fire and water and that kind

27
00:01:58,920 --> 00:01:59,680
of suss.

28
00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 3: Beal.

29
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:02,959
Speaker 2: We love her stories.

30
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,439
Speaker 1: Well, thank you to Landon and Sullivan for that suggestion.

31
00:02:07,599 --> 00:02:10,719
I think that's exactly what we're going to do tonight. Also,

32
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,479
big shout out to Avitt, who also left me a message.

33
00:02:15,039 --> 00:02:18,680
I get the impression Ave it might be related. Maybe not,

34
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:19,280
who knows.

35
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 4: I also want to shout out some of my Spotify commenters,

36
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:29,639
specifically Jacob who told me that in his town's Humane

37
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:34,400
Society there's a cat named Oliver that hates everyone and

38
00:02:34,479 --> 00:02:36,319
I actually I think that was in my head when

39
00:02:36,319 --> 00:02:37,280
I made this episode.

40
00:02:37,319 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 1: Two. Last, I want to shout out some of my

41
00:02:40,719 --> 00:02:45,520
newest Patreon sponsors. Thank you first of all to Max

42
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:51,599
and Griffin as well as JG from Peterborough, Ontario, a

43
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,759
place that I actually go quite a lot. I have

44
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,479
to travel there a lot. It's not too far from

45
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:01,000
my house. I really appreciate the support everyone. Yeah, it

46
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,319
goes a long way to keep the podcast alive. Additionally,

47
00:03:05,039 --> 00:03:08,800
a big shout out to Stacy B and Alicia G

48
00:03:09,039 --> 00:03:12,840
who both joined Patreon as well. And if there's anyone

49
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,879
you guys want me to showed out, just let me

50
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:16,560
know through the messages on Patreon.

51
00:03:16,599 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 4: There.

52
00:03:17,599 --> 00:03:20,599
Speaker 1: But now it's time to get on with the story.

53
00:03:21,479 --> 00:03:24,560
So close your eyes, get as comfy as you can

54
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:29,039
in that bed, and imagine yourself doing what the kid

55
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:34,719
in the story does. Imagine yourself waking up on board

56
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:39,439
your very own spaceship. You get up out of bed,

57
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,560
stretch your arms and legs, and head out of the

58
00:03:43,599 --> 00:03:47,680
bedroom area into the main section of the ship, which

59
00:03:47,719 --> 00:03:53,360
is sort of an open concept ship with a living room, kitchen,

60
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:59,319
play area, little book nook, and of course the command

61
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:05,400
center of the show, where Spaceship's digital face is currently displayed.

62
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:13,479
Good morning, Spaceship says, oh, good morning, Spaceship. Well, anything

63
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:18,519
on the docket today, you ask, Yes, I have found

64
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:24,000
several extremely interesting planets. First of all, there seems to

65
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:30,120
be a planet inhabited entirely by popcorn dragons. Are you

66
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:37,040
serious popcorn dragons? Yes? However, that is not the most

67
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:42,360
interesting thing I have found. My probes have also discovered

68
00:04:42,399 --> 00:04:47,199
a planet where computers seem to grow on trees. It

69
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:54,480
looks very interesting. Or last, a planet where you train pets,

70
00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:01,600
many of which have elemental powers. You think for a

71
00:05:01,639 --> 00:05:05,639
long while about which place you want to visit first.

72
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:10,839
You can always go to the others afterwards. After all, well,

73
00:05:11,439 --> 00:05:17,199
maybe we'll go to the pet planet first. You decide, understood,

74
00:05:17,759 --> 00:05:23,720
setting course for pet training planet. The ship turns to

75
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:28,360
the left and jumps into super hyper drive once again,

76
00:05:29,079 --> 00:05:34,279
creating a sort of wormhole around your ship that transports

77
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:39,680
you at incredible speed to almost anywhere in the galaxy.

78
00:05:39,879 --> 00:05:46,079
You eventually stop above a very beautiful but somewhat small planet.

79
00:05:46,759 --> 00:05:50,519
It looks kind of earth like, lots of green with

80
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:55,759
little bits of blue, but it's really really small compared

81
00:05:55,759 --> 00:06:00,560
to Earth. You jump in the command seat and steer

82
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,959
the ship down through the clouds over top of the

83
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:11,560
beautiful landscape of trees and green, green grass, until you

84
00:06:11,639 --> 00:06:17,120
eventually come to a set of structures and little houses.

85
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,240
As you look out the window below, you see, well,

86
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:27,879
you see all sorts of animals making their way through

87
00:06:28,319 --> 00:06:33,560
all sorts of different obstacle courses. It looks kind of

88
00:06:33,639 --> 00:06:37,959
like a pet show if the pets had well superpowers,

89
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:46,319
fire powered cats blasting across bridges, ice powered donkeys, miniature

90
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:51,480
earth courses of some kind, all making their way through

91
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:57,839
a series of different obstacles. There are humans scattered around, too,

92
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,439
and they sort of look like they're well cheering everyone on.

93
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,759
You carefully land in a large clearing one that resembles

94
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:12,120
a parking lot. With a hiss and a clank, The

95
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:16,240
ship lands on the ground and the back door opens up.

96
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,720
You head outside and see that two of the people

97
00:07:20,759 --> 00:07:25,920
are making their way towards the ship. Hi. There, one

98
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,920
of them says, welcome to the Pet Training Planet. My

99
00:07:31,079 --> 00:07:35,560
name is Landing and I own this place. Wow, you

100
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:41,199
own this whole training facility, you say, no, well, yes,

101
00:07:41,399 --> 00:07:46,759
but I actually own the entire planet. My sister and

102
00:07:46,839 --> 00:07:50,759
I created the whole thing to be a pet training

103
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:58,680
well oasis, I guess, she explains, This is my sister Sullivan.

104
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:06,959
Sullivan says, Sullivan's my main trainer here. Oh what is

105
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:12,680
this place, you ask, Well, it's basically what it sounds like.

106
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,519
It's a place where we train very special pets to

107
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:22,399
go through very special obstacles. Once a month. We actually

108
00:08:22,439 --> 00:08:26,879
have a competition for it. Today happens to be the

109
00:08:26,959 --> 00:08:29,839
day of the month. We do that too. Want to

110
00:08:29,879 --> 00:08:34,120
come check things out and well, maybe do some pet training,

111
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:41,120
she asks, Of course I do, you respond perfect well,

112
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,480
I have some other things to do, but well, Sullivan

113
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,240
here is one of the best pet trainers I have.

114
00:08:48,039 --> 00:08:54,480
I'll let her show you around. Hey, follow me, Sullivan says,

115
00:08:54,919 --> 00:08:59,240
weaving towards you to follow after her. As you follow

116
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,960
and look around, and you see all kinds of very

117
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:09,879
interesting animals doing very interesting things. There are tiny unicorns

118
00:09:09,919 --> 00:09:15,679
with glowing horns. There are puppies with sparks dancing around

119
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:21,320
their paws and bodies, cats with leafy tails, what look

120
00:09:21,399 --> 00:09:25,000
to be hamsters floating around in little bubbles of air,

121
00:09:26,159 --> 00:09:29,799
dragon lings that are no bigger than house cats, flapping

122
00:09:30,159 --> 00:09:35,919
flower petal wings, and well creating flowers all over the place.

123
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:43,240
Eventually you come to a stop outside a little covered building. Well,

124
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,720
the first thing you have to do is pick a pet,

125
00:09:47,279 --> 00:09:53,320
Sullivan says, uh, okay, I can pick any pet in here.

126
00:09:54,399 --> 00:09:59,840
That's right, Sullivan says, every pet here has a power

127
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:09,000
two some have fire, some have ice, water, wind, grass, clouds, flowers, lightning,

128
00:10:09,759 --> 00:10:15,039
or even other mysterious powers. You look around the little

129
00:10:15,279 --> 00:10:20,000
fenced in area outside the building. Most pets are running

130
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:25,360
and playing, jumping, rolling, shooting fireballs or strange magical energy

131
00:10:25,399 --> 00:10:31,080
at each other. But one pet is not. A little

132
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:35,919
cat is just sitting alone atop a scratched wooden crate.

133
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:42,559
It has black stripes, sharp yellow eyes, and the grumpiest

134
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:47,000
face you've ever seen on a living creature. He looks

135
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:54,919
like he's been personally offended by well, everything that Sullivan

136
00:10:55,039 --> 00:11:00,840
says is Oliver. Oliver hisses at a butterfly that passes it.

137
00:11:01,759 --> 00:11:04,879
The butterfly decides it has somewhere else to be and

138
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:09,960
quickly makes its way out of there. He looks You

139
00:11:10,039 --> 00:11:17,600
start to say mean, Sullivan continues, well, I was gonna

140
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:24,159
say annoyed. Well, Oliver's been here for a while. Lots

141
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:28,240
of kids have tried to train him, but he just grabvels, scratches,

142
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:32,399
and pretty much refuses to do anything. We have never

143
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,919
convinced him to do a single obstacle, which is kind

144
00:11:35,919 --> 00:11:39,279
of the whole point of this place. Oliver turns his

145
00:11:39,399 --> 00:11:44,320
head and stares at you directly. You immediately feel judged

146
00:11:44,399 --> 00:11:50,039
and well, as if his distaste is being reflected straight

147
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:55,399
at you. What powers does he have? You ask, still

148
00:11:55,480 --> 00:12:01,919
uncomfortable from his gaze. Well, we don't know, says. Every

149
00:12:02,039 --> 00:12:05,080
time we try to test him, he just refuses to

150
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,639
do anything, and sometimes he just scratches us. You make

151
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:14,120
your way inside the enclosure and move over towards Oliver.

152
00:12:15,039 --> 00:12:22,279
Oliver lifts one paw and gives a tiny angry But

153
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:27,159
something about it doesn't sound right to you. It doesn't

154
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:32,320
sound mean, it sounds hurt. You walk a little closer,

155
00:12:32,399 --> 00:12:37,519
and Oliver hisses, turning sideways and sticking his back straight

156
00:12:37,639 --> 00:12:41,679
up in the air, becoming well like a giant puffball.

157
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:47,679
May I interject, Spaceship's voice says, coming from your watch,

158
00:12:48,519 --> 00:12:53,240
I believe scanning this animal may provide possible answers as

159
00:12:53,279 --> 00:12:59,799
to its grumpy behavior. Would you allow me to do so? Uh? Sure,

160
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,639
Sullivan answers, a little bit confused about why there's a

161
00:13:04,759 --> 00:13:08,480
robotic voice coming out of your watch. You hold the

162
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,960
watch up and a blue light shoots out, scanning the

163
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:17,879
little cat. Oliver tries to swat the beam away, but

164
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:24,120
it doesn't work. Scan complete, Spaceship says, it seems that

165
00:13:24,519 --> 00:13:30,559
Oliver's right back knee has an untreated injury, likely very

166
00:13:30,639 --> 00:13:35,679
old movement, probably causes him a great deal of pain

167
00:13:36,399 --> 00:13:42,559
that may explain his grumpy behavior. Sullivan's eyes go wide

168
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:48,080
his knee. Oh, Oliver, we didn't know. We had the

169
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:52,399
vet look him over, but she didn't find anything. If

170
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:57,279
you would allow me to assist, spaceship, says, My ship

171
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,879
is equipped with the highest level of medical care. I

172
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,960
should be able to fix the cat in no time.

173
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:06,399
Speaker 3: Uh.

174
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:13,559
Speaker 1: I guess that's okay. Sullivan answers, and soon a little stretcher,

175
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:18,480
being carried by little helper bots, floats over from the

176
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:24,080
ship and lands beside Oliver. The other pets move backward,

177
00:14:24,639 --> 00:14:29,120
and Oliver backs away, hissing and sticking his back up

178
00:14:29,159 --> 00:14:33,360
in the air, until one of the robots quickly moves

179
00:14:33,399 --> 00:14:38,440
beside him and injects the cat with well some kind

180
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:44,399
of medical device. He instantly closes his eyes and falls

181
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:51,000
over completely asleep. The medical bots very cautiously move the

182
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,200
cat onto the stretcher, fly up in the air, and

183
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:59,840
straight back towards the ship. You and Sullivan follow close behind.

184
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,639
When you enter the ship, you see that a large

185
00:15:03,799 --> 00:15:07,759
part of the back section has been transformed into a

186
00:15:07,759 --> 00:15:13,320
little medical bay. Oliver sits on a floating cushion in

187
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:18,440
the center as the helper bots begin to scan his knee.

188
00:15:18,559 --> 00:15:26,399
The procedure is minor, Spaceship says, repairing damage tissue, reducing inflammation,

189
00:15:27,039 --> 00:15:32,759
reinforcing joint structure. All you really see is the team

190
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,759
of little helper bots shining blue lights over the cat's

191
00:15:36,799 --> 00:15:43,320
knee as he sleeps. But apparently it's working. Procedure complete.

192
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:48,840
Waking Oliver up. Now, a robot injects something else into

193
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:53,600
the cat. His eyes pop open, and he stands straight up.

194
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:59,799
He takes a step forward, and then another. He bends

195
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,960
his back legs and then jumps straight onto your shoulder.

196
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:11,960
Sullivan gasps, I've never seen him jump before. Oliver rubs

197
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,919
his face against your cheek and purrs so loudly that

198
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:22,200
you can feel the vibration. Purring intensity has increased. I

199
00:16:22,279 --> 00:16:30,240
believe this indicates a successful operation, Spaceship says, you smile. Well,

200
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,639
I think maybe he wants to train like the others.

201
00:16:34,639 --> 00:16:40,559
I guess maybe he does. This is amazing. Well, follow me,

202
00:16:40,799 --> 00:16:43,360
we can find out if he really does want to train.

203
00:16:44,559 --> 00:16:49,639
Back outside, Sullivan leads you to the training course. All right,

204
00:16:49,919 --> 00:16:54,080
she says, before Oliver starts, I'll show you what some

205
00:16:54,159 --> 00:16:58,519
of our trained pets can do. First comes a little

206
00:16:58,879 --> 00:17:03,679
fire puppy with orange fur and floppy little ears. This

207
00:17:03,879 --> 00:17:09,599
is hot Dog, Sullivan says. Hot Dog barks proudly. His

208
00:17:09,799 --> 00:17:13,640
paws burst into tiny flames, but they don't seem to

209
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,359
burn the grass or anything, which is kind of weird.

210
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,640
He races forward to a row of tall wooden hurdles

211
00:17:21,039 --> 00:17:25,599
and blasts little fire jets behind him, launching himself up

212
00:17:25,799 --> 00:17:30,680
over each one. Eh, he has fire boost jumps. It

213
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:36,640
really helps with obstacles like this, Sullivan explains. Hot Dog lands,

214
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:42,000
spins in a circle, and sneezes a puff of smoke. Next,

215
00:17:42,319 --> 00:17:47,119
Sullivan brings up a green cat with leafy looking whiskers.

216
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:52,920
This is grassy. Grassy runs toward a tall wall covered

217
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:57,799
in vines. She grows new vines straight out of the ground.

218
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:02,119
They twist into a stair case, and the cat easily

219
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:06,279
trots up and over the wall as if it was nothing.

220
00:18:07,519 --> 00:18:11,960
Then comes a little tiny hamster floating inside a swirl

221
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:17,279
of air. This is stream, short for air stream, of course,

222
00:18:18,039 --> 00:18:23,119
she explains. Stream squeaks and spins around in a circle.

223
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:27,519
A little tornado of air forms under her, lifting her

224
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:34,039
up through a set of floating hoops. Oh wow, you say, yeah,

225
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:40,839
airpower can be of benefit, Sullivan answers. Next, comes a

226
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:46,839
rainbow puppy. This is Cloudy, Sullivan says, cloudy. The rainbow

227
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:53,799
pup Cloudy bounds forward and creates soft little rainbow clouds

228
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:59,200
under her baws, bouncing from one to another over a gigantic,

229
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:05,920
well human made canyon. Finally, Sullivan brings out a small

230
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:12,640
dragonling with pink and green scales. This his Rose. The

231
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:18,960
flower dragon Rose flutters into the air, breathes out, and

232
00:19:19,079 --> 00:19:22,680
a stream of glowing petals appears in front of her.

233
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:28,160
The petals stick themselves together, forming into a bridge, which

234
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,599
the dragon uses to get across a muddy pit. Couldn't

235
00:19:32,799 --> 00:19:37,519
the dragon just fly though, you ask? Well, yeah, but

236
00:19:37,599 --> 00:19:43,160
it's not as impressive looking as a flower bridge, Sullivan says, right,

237
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,359
you see Oliver still sitting on your shoulder, luckily not

238
00:19:48,519 --> 00:19:53,480
digging its claws in watching every move they make. His

239
00:19:53,640 --> 00:20:00,599
eyes are sharp, now, not angry, more more interested. Sullivan

240
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:06,200
looks at him, Well, Oliver, are you ready? Oliver jumps

241
00:20:06,279 --> 00:20:09,440
down off of your shoulder and moves over to the

242
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:14,799
starting line, straight across from the hurdle jump Take it. Slow,

243
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:21,400
you say. Oliver crouches, then his paws glow orange, just

244
00:20:21,559 --> 00:20:25,559
like hot Dogs. He launches forward with a burst of

245
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:30,480
fire and clears the first hurdle, then the second, and

246
00:20:30,519 --> 00:20:38,519
then all five. Hot Dog barks in astonishment. Sullivan drops

247
00:20:38,519 --> 00:20:44,759
her clipboard. Did did he just copy hot Dog's fire boost?

248
00:20:45,839 --> 00:20:51,400
Maybe he's a fire type, she says. Oliver sits and

249
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:56,119
licks one paw, pretending like it was nothing. All right, Well,

250
00:20:56,279 --> 00:21:01,880
let's try the vine wall, Sullivan says. Walks up to it,

251
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:06,519
flicks his tail, and green vines burst from the ground,

252
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:12,119
just like they did for the other cat. They twist

253
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:17,720
into steps as they did for Grassy and well. Oliver

254
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,240
bounds up the steps to the top of the obstacle,

255
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:27,200
looking very proud, and again quietly licking his paw and

256
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,079
then wrapping it on the top of his head.

257
00:21:30,279 --> 00:21:33,759
Speaker 4: Ho it's a.

258
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:41,759
Speaker 1: Grass type two, Sullivan says, in confusion. Next, Oliver steps

259
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,839
up towards the floating hula hoops, the one the air

260
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:50,480
hamster made its way through with such ease. His whiskers

261
00:21:50,519 --> 00:21:55,240
start to glow pale blue, and wind starts to swirl

262
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:59,960
all around you. It forms a little tornado underneath it,

263
00:22:00,519 --> 00:22:05,119
lifting him up into the air and allowing him to

264
00:22:05,279 --> 00:22:11,759
fly smoothly through the spiral of little hoops. Sullivan just

265
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:16,359
watches in amazement. Nacs the cat walks up to the

266
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:21,680
little Man made well canyon and starts to produce little

267
00:22:21,839 --> 00:22:27,319
rainbow clouds beneath its paws, one and then another. He

268
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,839
hops from one to the other as if they're little

269
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,960
stepping stones, until he reaches the other side, where he

270
00:22:34,279 --> 00:22:39,119
has to cross a muddy pit. Oliver takes a breath,

271
00:22:39,559 --> 00:22:44,279
releases a stream of glowing petals, which all form a

272
00:22:44,319 --> 00:22:48,279
path across the mud. He walks over it with his

273
00:22:48,519 --> 00:22:56,119
tail held high. Sullivan just stares. He doesn't have just

274
00:22:56,319 --> 00:23:02,960
one elemental power. He's he's a mimic or a multi

275
00:23:03,279 --> 00:23:10,640
elemental cat or something. She says. Correction, spaceship interrupts from

276
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:16,839
your watch. Oliver appears to possess adaptive elemental mimicry after

277
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:21,680
observing another pet's power. He can produce it with high accuracy,

278
00:23:22,839 --> 00:23:27,400
So he has like any pet power you ask, likely yes,

279
00:23:28,039 --> 00:23:32,960
provided he sees it used first. Oliver moves back over

280
00:23:33,079 --> 00:23:37,640
beside you and rubs against your leg. You bend down

281
00:23:37,759 --> 00:23:44,839
and scratch him behind the ears. Wow. This is incredible. Oliver,

282
00:23:45,559 --> 00:23:50,920
you're quite the pet. But uh well, it's almost time

283
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:56,960
for our actual competition. You too want to join? She asks,

284
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:03,200
you look down at Oliver, who just in response, I guess.

285
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:08,039
So you spend a little more time practicing with Oliver

286
00:24:08,599 --> 00:24:13,480
as Sullivan gets the competition ready, but by the afternoon

287
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,079
the place starts to fill up with all sorts of

288
00:24:17,279 --> 00:24:21,359
kids and their own pets from all across Pet World.

289
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,279
There's a mini unicorn that looks like you can shoot

290
00:24:25,319 --> 00:24:28,799
beams of light out of its horn. There's a little

291
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:34,440
griffin baby who controls wind with its wings, an ice

292
00:24:34,599 --> 00:24:38,519
fox who freezes the ground ahead of it, a water

293
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:44,359
turtle who creates floating little water bubbles or shields or something.

294
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,799
There's also an animal that looks rather creepy, some sort

295
00:24:49,799 --> 00:24:55,160
of lightning ferret you believe that moves as fast as lightning,

296
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,960
and a little yellow blur. There's even a frog that

297
00:24:59,039 --> 00:25:03,200
looks like it's made out of lava. The ground burns

298
00:25:03,279 --> 00:25:08,920
and melts beneath it. Sullivan's sister Landon steps up to

299
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:14,079
an announcer booth. Welcome everyone to this month's Pet World

300
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:20,160
Obstacle course. The crowd cheers. Today we will test your

301
00:25:20,319 --> 00:25:25,000
pet training and your pet powers to see who the

302
00:25:25,039 --> 00:25:30,839
best obstacle pet is. Winner gets this cool trophy. She

303
00:25:31,039 --> 00:25:35,240
holds a large trophy up in the air. The crowd

304
00:25:35,319 --> 00:25:40,480
cheers again. You and Oliver sit and watch the first competitors.

305
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:47,400
The first one is sparklehoof the mini Unicorn. She races forward,

306
00:25:47,519 --> 00:25:52,240
lights up her horn, and creates glowing ramps over the hurdles.

307
00:25:53,079 --> 00:25:58,640
She finishes rather quickly, and the crowd cheers. The little

308
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:03,440
griffin baby apparently named feather Top is up next. It

309
00:26:03,839 --> 00:26:07,839
uses its powerful wing gusts to soar over the pits

310
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:13,200
and through the hoops, again, finishing with almost no problems

311
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:18,319
at all. The ice fox goes next, freezing the ground

312
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,440
in front of it and just sort of slipping its

313
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:25,880
way over the obstacles, through the hoops, and across a

314
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:32,319
giant beam of ice. The water turtle goes next, simply

315
00:26:32,519 --> 00:26:37,640
floating in little bubbles across canyons. The lightning fairet zaps

316
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:42,039
through the tunnel maze so quickly that well, honestly, most

317
00:26:42,039 --> 00:26:46,079
of the crowd, including you, entirely misses it, and the

318
00:26:46,279 --> 00:26:51,279
lava frog, well, the lava frog just accidentally melts everything

319
00:26:51,319 --> 00:26:56,200
beneath it and never finishes the race, but after rebuilding,

320
00:26:56,759 --> 00:27:03,920
it's finally your turn, all Oliver. Oliver responds by purring loudly,

321
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:11,880
and now Landon says on the microphone, we have Oliver,

322
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:19,119
the mystery cat and former grump. The crowd murmurs. Some

323
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:24,680
kids recognize him and immediately look towards their old wounds

324
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:29,480
from attempting to train this particular cat. You bend down

325
00:27:29,559 --> 00:27:32,519
beside him. Don't worry, just do your best. It's your

326
00:27:32,519 --> 00:27:37,079
first competition after all. He bumps his forehead against you,

327
00:27:37,559 --> 00:27:39,960
and you scratch him on the side of the head.

328
00:27:40,759 --> 00:27:46,079
The starting bell rings and Oliver explodes forward with hot

329
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:50,319
Dog's fire boost, clearing the first row of hurdles in

330
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:55,400
an easy single jump. He reaches a wall, his paws

331
00:27:55,519 --> 00:27:59,839
glow like sparkle hoof's horn, and he creates some sort

332
00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:04,799
of ramp of light straight up the side. He races

333
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,359
up and over the top before getting to the spinning

334
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:13,440
hoop section. He gathers air underneath him, floats up in

335
00:28:13,559 --> 00:28:18,079
the wind, and flies straight through the thing with the

336
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:22,920
power of stream or well, perhaps that Griffin. It's hard

337
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,559
to tell exactly who he's mimicking. In this case. He

338
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:31,319
comes to a balance beam next and projects ice straight

339
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:36,680
over top of the thing, moving, running and sliding across

340
00:28:36,839 --> 00:28:42,519
in an instant. The crowd is amazed. Next, he moves

341
00:28:42,599 --> 00:28:46,599
up to a muddy pit and combines the hole, rose

342
00:28:46,799 --> 00:28:53,680
power and grass thing together, growing vines with beautiful blossoms

343
00:28:53,759 --> 00:28:58,599
covering them across the pit, and then well simply running

344
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:04,920
across them with the balance and reflexes of a cat. Last,

345
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:09,720
he comes to a canyon. He takes a deep breath

346
00:29:10,119 --> 00:29:16,440
and blows out a giant bubble. The cat jumps inside

347
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:22,400
the bubble and floats across the canyon. The bubble pops

348
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:26,400
on the other side, and Oliver lands on the ground,

349
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:34,319
standing proud. Right on the finish line, the crowd goes crazy.

350
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:39,000
The once grumpy cat that used to simply hiss and

351
00:29:39,119 --> 00:29:43,920
scratch everyone as just well finished the obstacle course in

352
00:29:44,039 --> 00:29:47,440
almost record time. I mean it was slower than the

353
00:29:47,559 --> 00:29:52,119
lightning ferret, of course, but it was impressive. You follow

354
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,680
the crowd as they move towards the stage where Landing

355
00:29:55,799 --> 00:30:01,039
and Sullivan are currently standing ready to hand out trophies. Well,

356
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:06,519
very good. Our main trophy, of course, goes to the

357
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:10,839
lightning ferret. It blew the others out of the water

358
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:15,839
for this particular competition in terms of speed. Anyways, the

359
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,440
kid and the lightning ferret make their way up onto

360
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:25,720
the stage, grab the trophy, and everyone cheers. However, as

361
00:30:25,799 --> 00:30:29,039
many of you know, we often give out special prizes,

362
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:35,079
and this time we think one is warranted. So the

363
00:30:35,119 --> 00:30:39,519
prize for the most improved pet with the greatest style

364
00:30:40,119 --> 00:30:45,599
goes to Oliver the mimic cat or whatever it is.

365
00:30:46,559 --> 00:30:51,200
Sullivan pulls another trophy from behind the podium and lifts

366
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,759
it up. You look down at Oliver, who jumps up

367
00:30:54,799 --> 00:30:58,799
onto your shoulder. Once again. You make your way onto

368
00:30:58,839 --> 00:31:02,240
the stage, take the trophy and hold it up in

369
00:31:02,279 --> 00:31:06,920
the air as all of the other kids cheer. Soon

370
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:11,160
the crowd's part and you find yourself standing across from

371
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:16,559
Landen and Sullivan once again. Well, thanks, guys, thanks for

372
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:22,160
letting me train Oliver here. He's a pretty cool cat. Yeah,

373
00:31:22,359 --> 00:31:26,240
he sure is. Well, I kind of have to get

374
00:31:26,279 --> 00:31:30,279
going to other adventures. Uh, you guys able to take

375
00:31:30,359 --> 00:31:31,440
care of this little guy?

376
00:31:32,119 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 4: You ask?

377
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,559
Speaker 1: Of course we can. We'll train him with all of

378
00:31:36,599 --> 00:31:41,200
the best pet powers on the pet training planet. They say.

379
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:46,039
You kneel down one last time and give all of

380
00:31:46,119 --> 00:31:50,000
her a scratch on both sides of his cheeks. He

381
00:31:50,039 --> 00:31:54,640
brushes up against your leg and then moves over towards Sullivan.

382
00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:01,200
You walk back on to the spaceship, turn around as

383
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,440
the ship lifts up off of the ground and the

384
00:32:04,519 --> 00:32:10,039
back hatch closes. You lay down on the couch as

385
00:32:10,119 --> 00:32:15,160
spaceship flies up through the atmosphere and out into space

386
00:32:15,319 --> 00:32:21,440
once again. You close your eyes, lay your head down

387
00:32:21,559 --> 00:32:26,359
on the pillow, and just start going through your memories

388
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:31,200
of the day. With each breath, you let go of

389
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:35,640
the tension and your muscles. You let your arms and

390
00:32:35,799 --> 00:32:40,839
legs melt into the couch. You release the tension and

391
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:49,160
your shoulders, your neck, and even your face. Then you

392
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:54,279
let your mind wander off to thoughts of new dreams,

393
00:32:54,640 --> 00:33:02,759
new adventures, and new superpowered animals to come. Goodnyed Everyone.

394
00:34:41,679 --> 00:43:04,760
Speaker 3: Union name a New York. No more Union, no amo

395
00:43:05,000 --> 00:48:08,119
of thing, no more m one one never
