Hi! Sorry I'm late, but...

Shh-shh! Twigs is about to try the Speedy Cheetah spell.

Ha-mwwwwmmmmm!

Speedy Cheetah!

Go!

Woooooaaaaahhhh!

Whoo-hoo-hoo!

That was brilliant!

Eh?

Wow, I did go fast!

Perhaps next time you can run across the sand, not into it!

Point taken!

Oh!

It'll be my turn to try a new spell next!

So, we need to do the moves that turn our red magic powers on.

Come on, join in!

Time for Tree Fu!

# We need to turn the magic on

# We need to save the day, come on!

# Just follow me and you will see, the magic comes from you and me!

# To make Tree Fu spells, do what you see

# Slide to the side and jump right back

# Hold your hands up high, spin around

# Reach up for the sky!

# Touch your nose, now make a pose

# Clap your hands

# Touch your knees and run with me!

# When you move, you make the magic

# Do what I do to make the magic

# Turn that, turn that, turn that, turn that Tree Fu magic on! #

Look! The crystal in my vest is glowing!

Moving turned our magic on!

Thanks for your help.

I could use a little help here!

Oh!

Thanks!

OK, Muru, I think I'm ready.

What spell do you want me to try?

Ah, let me show you.

Oh, that's a weird-looking beetle!

It's not a beetle! It's called a rhino and it's incredibly strong.

Indeed. Observe, as I do the Rhino Charge spell.

I try to move as it moves,

feel what it's feeling,

think what it's thinking.

-Now you try.

-OK.

Rhino Charge, go!

Aaahhhh!

-Oof!

-HE COUGHS

Who-o-o-o-oa!

Who-o-o-o-oa!

Sorry, Twigs. I lost control.

No problem!

Glad I could help you stop.

I don't know what happened.

Can I try again?

Be my guest.

Wait, is it the left arm or the right?

Left! No, right.

Right arm. I mean, right foot.

No, left foot! No, both feet.

Yeah, I'm not sure that's right.

Muru, what do you think?

Enough!

Tom, you are failing because you do not have faith in yourself.

To gain confidence,

you must learn to understand the spirit of the animals.

But how do I do that?

Yeah, how do we do that?

I know of a way.

MEH!

Jumping jasmine blossoms!

MEH! BAAAAAA!

Oh, I wish we could go as fast as Muru!

Think of the mischief we could do!

Yeah. Oh, but you need red crystal magic to go that fast!

And to do the magic, you need a red crystal

and we don't have one!

Then we'll just have to get one.

Settle down, y'all!

That's right.

Shh! Howdy, Tom, Twigs.

-You too, Muru.

-Hello!

-Greetings, Ariela.

Hi, Ariela. Sorry we scared your beetles.

To tell the truth, you spooked me a little, too.

We're all a might jumpy.

We got a long walk ahead of us.

Yes, to Red Rock Canyon

on the far side of the Dead Branch Desert.

How do you know?

Oh, Muru knows everything.

Do you know of any cure for beetle foot fungus,

besides the sparking bark from Red Rock Canyon?

That is the only cure.

I was afraid of that.

My beetles have all got the fungus.

Oh, that smells bad!

And it doesn't look great either.

They're not eating or sleeping and it's because of that fungus.

Oh, yeah, blame the fungus.

So we gotta go to Red Rock Canyon, even though I'm kind of nervous.

Why are you nervous?

My grandpappy took me there once when I was little.

First, we got into a big old sawdust storm in the desert.

And then, when we got to the Canyon,

one of the beetles sneezed and caused a rock slide!

MEH! MEH! MEH!

Twigs and I have been to the Dead Branch Desert lots of times

and we've never seen a sawdust storm.

Really? Well, I'm glad to hear that.

But I'm still worried I won't be able to get my beetles

there safe all by myself.

That is why I have brought you two ranch hands.

-Oh, when are they getting here?

-He means us!

Travelling with the herd will help you to understand the animals.

-Who-o-o-o-oa!

-Study them, learn from them.

Try to communicate with them. And learn from Ariel, too.

She's so in touch with her beetles, she can almost think like them.

Aw, shucks!

Do we have to?

I don't think the beetles like me. Aah!

Which is why I can't wait to get to know them.

Have a safe journey.

Thanks for pitching in, fellas! I feel better already.

Yeah, me too!

OK then, everybody ready to hit the trail?

-SHE WHISTLES

-Head 'em up, move 'em out! Yeeha!

-Yeeha!

-Yeeha!

Did you hear where we're going?

Red Rock Canyon!

-So?

-I bet that Canyon is full of red crystals.

Here's my plan.

Oh, oh, I've got a plan!

Let's follow the herd to Red Rock Canyon

and collect some red crystals of our very own!

Then we can go fast like Muru!

But that was my... Oh, never mind.

SHE WHISTLES

BAA!

Ariela really is good at talking to her beetles.

Look at her!

Gee, Gee, Gee!

Ha! Ha!

-Ha!

-MEH!

Ha, ha, ha!

She tells them what to do and they do it. They really understand her.

She's totally in charge.

Oh! Hmm...

-Uh, Ariela?

-I've changed my mind.

I don't think I can do this.

Maybe my beetles' feet will get better on their own.

Oof! MEH!

It's all right, Ariela. Just because you were in the sawdust

-storm before doesn't mean it's going to happen again.

-You think?

-Oh, no.

-SHE COUGHS

Gee! Ha!

Gee! Gee!

Gee! Ha!

HER COUGHING GETS WORSE

-Whoa! Stop!

-Whoa now!

BAA! BAA! MEH!

Shhh! Shhh. There, there.

Sorry.

Silly to think that that little gust of wind was a sawdust storm.

See? This desert makes me jumpy.

Don't worry about it. Everyone's OK, except maybe Twigs.

Oh... What happened? I've never seen Ariela panic like that.

I know, she's normally so in control.

You're going too fast.

You're going to hit something.

We're in the desert, what is there to hit?

-That!

-Huh?

-Aaaaah!

-Aaaah!

Right. I think we can walk from here.

No!

You're doing a great job, Ariela.

Am I? I still feel mighty jumpy.

You will have your herd the Red Rock Canyon before you know it.

I hope you're right.

This big old desert makes me nervous.

Ah, it's not so bad, if you don't mind the terrible heat,

blinding sun and total lack of water!

Huh? Sawdust storm!

And it's heading our way!

Sawdust storm? I knew it!

Who-o-o-o-o-o-oa!

Ariela!

That was very unpleasant.

Help!

The storm blew me into a patch of sinking sawdust.

We're coming!

We'll get you out of...

Oh, didn't think that through. I'm doomed!

-In your own time.

-Help!

Don't worry, I'll get you out.

We have to save them from the sinking sawdust.

We'll have to use big world red magic, so I need your help.

It's time to do the Digging Desert Mole spell.

Are you ready? Tree Fu go!

Right, copy me.

Into your spell pose,

kneel down on the floor and put your hands by your head.

Crossing your body, bring one hand down.

Crossing your body, bring the other hand down.

Crawl your hands forwards.

Now crawl your hands backwards.

Put your foot down on the floor

and push up to stand.

Make a circle with both arms.

Great. Same moves again.

Kneel down...

hands up.

Bring one hand down, bring the other hand down.

Crawl hands forwards,

crawl hands backwards.

Step and push up.

Make a circle with both arms.

Now clap and say "Digging Desert Mole" to send the magic to me.

Digging Desert Mole!

I can feel the power of the desert mole!

TWIGS AND ARIELA: Hurry, Tom!

Whoa!

-Oh, thanks.

-Thanks.

-Yes, we did it!

-Thanks for your help.

-Oh, no, my herd!

Where'd they go?

If we don't get water soon, we're going to be dried,

shrivelled and withered.

If you don't stop complaining, I'll...

What's that noise?

-Whaaaa!

-Aaaaah!

The storm! It's coming back!

Not again!

Oh, don't worry, I think it's going to miss us this time.

-Who-o-o-oa!

-Aaaaah!

It's going towards that Canyon with the big red ridge.

That's it! That's Red Rock Canyon.

Oh, great. I'll get to Red Rock Canyon, but my herd won't.

Some rancher I am.

-Who-o-o-oa!

-Who-o-o-oa!

THEY COUGH AND SPLUTTER

We're here!

Red crystals, here we come.

Where are the red crystals?

That's just plain old red rock.

I ate a bucket-load of sawdust for this?

I want to go home.

Well, you'll have to walk because you've lost the spore bike. Ooh!

Are those Ariela's beetles?

Yeah, so?

They're not magical.

No, but they might be rideable.

I can't believe I lost my herd.

I'm the worst rancher ever.

You'll find your herd because you're Ariela.

And you're the best rancher ever.

You can talk to them and you can think like them.

Oh, come on, Ariela, think like a beetle.

Well, if I was a beetle,

I would try to get out of this hot sun and head for some shade.

And where's the nearest shade?

Red Rock Canyon.

Let's go!

Come on! Move!

Now how do we make them move?

I don't know.

-Hi-yah!

-Um...hi-yah! Hi-yo! Ha-va! Ha-va! Whoo!

Oh, let's just walk.

Ugh. Oh...

Mooooooooooooove!

-Whoa!

-Who-o-oa!

Aaaaaaaaaah!

Puffy? Stink?

Hey! Those are my beetles.

So are those.

Oh, no, they're trapped.

I'll free the trapped beetles,

you get the other two back from Puffy and Stink.

-Come back here!

-You beetle rustlers!

Hello? I need you to move away from the rocks.

Hmm.

Yes! Gee-haw.

Gee-haw. Gee-haw.

MEH! BAA!

The beetles are trapped, so I need your help to clear out these rocks

and save them. We'll have to use big world red magic.

We need to do the Rhino Charge spell.

Are you ready?

Tree Fu Go!

Right, copy me.

Into your spell pose.

Kneel down and place your hands flat on the floor.

Crawl forwards with knees bent and stop.

Push your hips up and down.

Crawl backwards,

place one foot on the floor

and push up to stand.

Close your hands in front of you, like a rhino's horn.

Bend your elbows in and push your arms forward.

Great. Same moves again.

Kneel down, hands flat on the floor.

Crawl forwards and stop.

Hips up and down.

Crawl backwards.

Foot on the floor, push up to stand.

Hands in front.

Bend your elbows in and push your arms forward.

Now clap and say "Rhino Charge" to send the magic to me.

Rhino Charge!

I can feel the power of the rhino!

Yes! We did it!

Thanks for your help.

I don't think we can catch them.

-We don't have to.

-SHE WHISTLES

Whoa, there!

-Who-o-o-oa!

-Who-o-o-oa!

-MEH! MEH!

-Ho, now, ho, now.

He was right, you do know how to talk to beetles.

Hello, there! MEH!

I, on the other hand, do not.

Come back here!

Well, I made it across the desert to Red Rock Canyon and so did my herd,

-thanks to you, Tom.

-Whoa!

-Whoa!

You did the Rhino Charge spell correctly that time.

You have learned from your journey.

Yes, I think I have.

Me, too. I learned that beetles still don't like me.

Hmm. Ariela, you have completed your mission.

Your beetles seem happy here.

Are you ready to go home?

I think I'll keep my herd company here for a while.

Very well. Twigs, let us go. Home.

-Until next time...

-Bye, best buddy!

Bye, Twigs.

Have fun in Red Rock Canyon, Ariela.

I'll see you next time. Bye!

Bye-bye, Tom.

Thanks for helping me in Treetopolis.

See you soon for another adventure.

Bye for now.
