The Midnight Zone Octonauts

'Octonauts, to your stations.'

Barnacles!

Kwazii!

Peso!

Explore!

Rescue!

Protect!

Wrench.

Screwdriver.

Carrot.

Bo pa pa bo pa.

Thanks, Vegimal.

Is the GUP-A ready to go, Tweak?

It sure is, Cap.

Sound the Octo-alert.

Octonauts to the launch bay.

Octonauts, today, our mission is to travel to the bottom of the sea,

and add a new page to Shellington's book.

This is an unfinished guide to the Midnight Zone.

The Midnight Zone? It sounds dark and scary.

It is, me hearties.

The Midnight Zone is a place so deep that the sun never shines there.

In this book, I describe amazing creatures from the Midnight Zone.

A limpet, a tubeworm, a vent fish.

At the end, however, there are these empty pages.

It's our job to fill these empty pages

with a creature no-one's ever seen before.

And since it's so dark down there,

I added these extra lights to the GUP-A to help you see.

When the lights flash, you're running out of power,

and you need to come back up right away.

Shellington, Peso and Kwazii, put on your deep sea suits.

-Ready?

-Ready, Captain.

Open the Octohatch, Tweak.

Right away, Cap.

It's not dark yet.

That's because we're still up in the Sunlight Zone.

Are we there yet? It's rather dark.

No. We're now entering the Twilight Zone.

And the Midnight Zone is even deeper and darker.

Even deeper and darker!

Octonauts, we have entered the Midnight Zone.

It's really dark down here.

Let's turn on the special deep sea lights.

It's all pretty quiet down here.

Captain, what's that sound?

That's just our propeller, Peso. It always makes that sound.

BEEPING

There's something very hot up ahead.

Shivering whiskers!

Is that...smoke?

Woah!

Jumping jellyfish!

We've found some hydrothermal vents.

What's a hydrothermal vent?

It's like an underwater volcano.

That's very hot water pouring out of the top.

Helmets, everybody.

This is the perfect place to find a creature never seen before.

Octonauts, let's do this.

Yeaow!

Ready.

Oh, Captain!

Have you found something, Shellington?

I've found a limpet.

But that's nothing new. And these are tubeworms.

They only live in the Midnight Zone.

They're fascinating, but they're not new.

Over here.

Yeaow!

It looks big.

It's...it's...

It's only rocks.

Sorry, Shellington.

Aaagh!

That's a vent fish. It's not a new creature either, I'm afraid.

Let's keep looking, Octonauts.

Shellington.

What are these holes?

Interesting.

I found a rock before with holes exactly like this.

But I'd never discovered what made the holes.

Let's dig up a rock sample.

I'll get the rock cutter.

Allow me.

Right, I'll take it from here.

Yeaaaaa!

Nnnnngh!

Oh no. I broke the rock sample.

Oh!

No problem. I can get a good look inside it now.

Maybe something's living in here.

Hmm. I don't see anything.

Where's the other piece?

Got it.

Octonauts, the power on the GUP-A is getting low. We should go.

But I still haven't found a new creature.

We'll have to come back another time, Shellington.

Everyone to the GUP.

So, did you find a creature no-one's ever seen before?

Er, no.

I didn't find anything new to put on my empty pages.

I wish we'd found something big and scary,

like a giant fishapotamus.

But we did find this interesting rock with holes in it.

-Wow!

-Oooh!

I think there's something alive in here.

-Oh!

-Oh!

Whe...where am I?

You're on the Octopod.

My house. It's broken.

No worries, little guy, we can put your house back together

faster than you can say bunch of munchy crunchy carrots.

OK, but hurry. I'm freezing.

And this light hurts my eyes.

You live in the midnight zone where it's always dark.

And the hydrothermal vents are very hot.

The Octopod must seem very strange to you.

Oh, I want to go home.

We'll fix your house and then we'll take you home to the Midnight Zone

as fast as we can.

In the meantime, we'll do our best to make you more comfortable.

How's that? Warm enough? Dark enough?

Better for now.

Thanks.

We have to work out how the tunnels connect to each other.

Give this a try.

-Wrong.

-OK, let me try again.

Wrong.

There, that ought to do it.

Wrong, wrong, wrong.

The holes don't line up. I keep bumping my head.

Don't worry. We won't give up until we've worked it out.

You know, we've been looking at this problem from the outside.

But we need to take a look from the inside.

With this tiny video camera, we can see your tunnels from the inside.

I call it the Worm Cam.

-Ready?

-Ready.

Dead end.

The holes are still not lining up.

Another dead end.

It's perfect!

Fantastic.

I'll use some glue to hold it together.

Good as new.

I need a picture. Say "seaweed"!

Seaweed.

Now we'll take you back home where it's nice and dark.

I can't wait.

Octonauts, come down and visit any time.

Peso, we have a new friend in the Midnight Zone.

It may be dark down here, but it's not scary any more, Captain.

And you have your own page in my book now.

Sweet!
