Hey friends, it's Mr. Jim and welcome back to Kid Short stories.

Hey, do you love critters of all shapes and sizes?

Well, I do, and we need you on our team of Critter Protectors you see we

are always looking to protect the critters around us both around the world and in

our backyards. So if that sounds fun to you, I want to send you a free

Critter badge in the mail. Check the show notes below for your parents to fill out the

form for the free badge that I will send you in the mail. Well are you ready

for part two of this adventure? Me too, let's go!

As Malachai and Alex left their class picnic, they had to run back to their house to get their

jet pack to fly to HQ.

They were given instructions of coming to HQ so that they could be painted purple to blend in with all the purple ninjas.

They were both a little excited about getting covered in purple paint. Have you ever been covered in

purple paint before? I definitely have not and I don't think I ever will. Well, unless HQ needs me to do that. If they need me to blend in as a purple Ninja, then it just might happen.

Malachai, Alex, it's great to see you," said HQ.

Come on with us and we will get you fully painted in purple.

So what is this going to be like? said Alex.

Is it going to hurt?

Like what kind of paint does this?

Will it ever come off?

Is it permanent?

Oh, don't worry, it's not permanent paint.

It will come off with just a simple bath wash. But just make sure
