Wild Kratts: Creatures of the Deep Sea Page #3

---

Kind of hard to

enjoy it though,

with the Amphisub

crushing and all.

The new pressure

systems Aviva designed

don't work without power.

We'll be crushed

by the deep sea pressure.

Well, it was good creature

adventuring with ya, bro.

We had a good run.

Yeah, we sure did, bro.

But it'll be really nice

to see a new species

before we turn

into human pancakes.

MARTIN:

Huh?

Hey, Dragon Glow!

Huh?

BOTH:

Dragonfish Power Discs!

Aviva did it!

(Crashing)

It says "mayday"

with their coordinates.

They must be in trouble now!

We gotta hurry.

BOTH:

Touch dragonfish.

Activate Dragonfish Powers!

Wow!

Oh!

Human-sized dragonfish!

CHRIS:

Love it, Dragon Glow.

This is awesome.

Ooh, maneuverable!

With working photophores, ha-ha!

Cool.

BOTH:

To the Wild Kratts

Team Rescue!

Ooh, better take the Amphisub.

I think it's repairable.

(Gourmand groaning)

GOURMAND:

Let go,

you toothy fish face.

JIMMY:

I can't break free!

It's tentacles are too strong!

I can't pull away!

KOKI:

Uh-oh, those serrated,

cutting discs.

Look out!

I hope the guys

got our delivery.

I don't see them anywhere.

They should be

around here somewhere.

MARTIN:

But where?

CHRIS:

There they are!

Yeah, I'd say this is a

"mayday" kind of situation.

Let's put our suits

into spy mode

so the squid can't see us.

Oh, yeah, this calls for full

dragonfish cloaking power.

Deep sea invisibility, on!

Let's just hope

Colossal squids

can't see our

red lights either.

It's working.

We can see him,

but he can't see us.

Now let's put these

sharp jaws to use!

Yes! These dragonfish teeth

are impressive, Dragon Glow!

MARTIN:

It's a good thing we're

super huge dragonfish,

because otherwise this

squid would never feel it!

(Jaws snapping)

Ah!

(Both grunting)

I'm feeling that! Ow! Hey!

The jaws work, but there

are so many tentacles. Whoa!

Ha, missed me!

Keep going, Martin!

Take that!

MARTIN:

And that!

CHRIS:

And one more!

I'm not sure why, but it seems

like he's loosening his grip.

Oof!

(Gasping)

It's us!

Martin!

With Dragonfish Power!

BOTH:

Uh-oh.

CHRIS:

Woo-hoo, over here.

Can't catch us.

Okay, get ready to make a break

for it if you can, Jimmy.

Ready?

Ready!

BOTH:

Now!

CREW:

We're free!

CHRIS:

Woo-hoo.

(Laughing)

BOTH:

We did it!

Whew! Now finally we can

get back to our search.

Deeper than we've

ever gone before.

New species with new

creature powers, here we come!

Ha-ha!

Let's do it for science!

Huh?

Gourmand!

GOURMAND:

Here, fishy, fishies.

(Gourmand chuckling)

MARTIN:

Look at those

deep sea creatures.

What's Gourmand up to?

I don't know, but it's

a good thing we still have

dragonfish invisibility power!

Dragon Glow! Look out!

Ha ha! With this green light,

they just come right to me.

At this rate, I'll harvest all

the creatures in the deep sea!

(Chuckling)

BOTH:

Oh no!

Gourmand is going to destroy all

the creatures in the deep sea!

Before they're

even discovered!

Uh...

Okay, systems check!

Everything seems to be

functioning fine

with our new deep sea vessel.

Koki, bearings?

Looks like we're in

the Abyssal Zone.

This area right here.

13,000 to 20,000 feet down.

That's the distance of

40 city skyscrapers!

Wow! That's a new low!

I mean, it's the deepest

we've ever been before.

Not a lot of humans

have ever gone this deep.

Our new deep sea vessel

is holding up great!

Yeah, but I'm not.

And Chris and Martin?

Don't tell me

we lost them again?

BOTH:

Creature alert!

Aahh!

Huh?

Huh?

Don't sneak up on me in those

dragonfish Power Suits.

Hey, those look good,

if I do say so myself.

Dragonfish are pretty

ferocious-looking

for a little deep-sea monster

that only gets about

six inches long.

Quick, let us in.

We've got a problem.

Okay, so go to the portal

for re-docking.

BOTH:

Deactivate!

Glad you're back.

Yeah.

Uh, the Amphisub

got a little crushed.

A little?!

But you can fix it, right?

So what's the creature alert

all about?

It's not good.

Gourmand is down here.

Somehow he got hold

of a submarine

that can go this deep too.

You're kidding?

It's true.

We saw him with our own

dragonfish photophores.

The ultimate deep sea spy

creature power.

Gourmand's down here collecting

deep sea creatures.

He got our buddy DragonGlow.

And a lot of other creatures.

AVIVA:

What?!

We are down here trying to

discover and understand

unknown sea creatures, and he's

down here destroying them

before people

even know about them?!

That's wrong!

That's right!

I mean, that's right

that it's wrong...

Hmm... you know what I mean.

We've got to stop him!

Aww, but we can't stop our

search for new creatures.

We're on a once-in-a-lifetime

mission.

Breaking new ground

for science.

Trying to discover new species.

I know, but if we don't

deal with Gourmand,

there might not be any new

species left to search for.

Well, one thing is for sure.

Sitting still won't help.

So we better get moving

and just search.

And we'll see what we find.

BOTH:

Let's go!

(Sighing)

And I'll get to work on this.

(All gasping)

MARTIN:

Awesome!

We did it! We made it to

the bottom of the sea.

(Clinking)

(Yelling)

Giant Isopods!

Awesome!

I never thought

we'd meet creatures

that live on the bottom

of the ocean!

Whoa... I didn't think anything

could live down here!

How do they do it?

Yeah, and what do they eat?

CHRIS:

Believe it or not,

they eat mostly things

that sink down from above.

Little pieces of dead things.

Or big dead things.

Look!

CHRIS:

Whoa! A whale fall!

KOKI:

Whale fall?

CHRIS:

Yeah, when a whale dies,

it sinks and becomes a feast

for creatures at

the bottom of the sea.

MARTIN:

Those guys will eat now

and then they can go for four

years without eating at all!

By then, they may find another

whale fall or smaller meal.

Whoa! That's weird.

Like food falling from the sky.

CHRIS:

Yeah, and you never know

when it's coming.

AVIVA:

What's that?

Awesome!

Qu hermoso.

That thing must be

new to science.

Mission accomplished?

Can we head back to Earth?

Sorry, Jimmy.

It's a type of dumbo octopus.

And deep sea remote cameras

only recently captured

this guy on film.

He's named after those ear-like

wings that help him swim,

but hardly anything else is

known about this octopus.

Ahh, pulpo!

Huh?

Pulpo. It's the Spanish word

for "octopus".

You know, I didn't even know

this guy existed,

but he looks a lot like

my new deep sea vessel.

Hey, I think I just found

a new name for our vessel.

The Pulponaut!

I'll name it after him.

MARTIN:

Well, then I guess this guy's

name should be Pulpo.

(Laughing)

I think he likes it.

Pulpo, where are you headed?

Aahh!

ALL:

Whoa!

(Sighing)

It looks like... a mountain.

JIMMY:

Um, was this on the map?

KOKI:

This must be the

Mid Atlantic Ridge.

It's the longest

mountain range in the world,

but still so unexplored.

I've got to map it more.

These underwater mountain ranges
