A week has passed since the Attack of the Tree-Eating Aliens adventure, and the Tortuga was flying through the air. Inside, the Wild Kratts were planning for their next Creature Adventure. The Jurassic Siblings were with them as well.
"Alright, Wild Kratts! We have been rocking 'round the creature world and have hit all sorts of great habitats and met hundreds of amazing creatures." Martin said.
"But we've only scratched the Earth's surface." Chris said. "There's still hundreds of habitats left to explore!"
"And millions of new creatures to meet." Martin added. "The question is, where do you want to go first?"
"Well we've already been to my favorite continent, South America. And the Pantanal of Brazil." Aviva said.
"I'd kind of rather go back to some kind of safe little forest in Australia. And meet some soft cuddlies like Wallabies and Wombats." Jimmy said.
"And don't forget the 100 species of venomous snakes and spiders that live in Australia." Chris added.
"Euch." Jimmy said.
"How about Asia?" Koki said. "There is so much going on in this massive continent. I could really go for the bamboo forests of the Giant Panda."
"Or, we could hit some more habitats in Africa." Martin said. "We've adventured through just small parts of the Savannah. And what about other habitats? Like the mysterious jungles of the Congo?"
"You know, I'm dying to go down to the bottom of the Earth to Antarctica, the icy home of animals like Emperor Penguins and Leopard Seals!" Chris said.
"Oh, Planet Earth has so many awesome habitats!" Martin said. "How are we gonna decide where to-"
He was then rudely cut off when suddenly, the Tortuga jerked a little.
"Whoa!" They all shouted in unison.
"Uh-Oh!" Koki said. "The Tortuga is seizing up! We're losing altitude! We're going down!"
"To somewhere in North America!" Chris said.
"But where in North America?" Martin asked. "There are so many habitats we haven't explored yet here, either."
"Well, we're gonna find out soon!" Chris said.
"Prepare for a crash landing!" Koki said.
"Oh, wow! This is good." Martin said.
"How is this good?" Koki asked. "We're going down for a crash landing!"
"Yeah, but look where we're gonna crash." Martin said.
Jimmy, Chris and Aviva raced to the cockpit.
"Hang on, everybody." Jimmy said. "It's not gonna be one of my usual silky smooth landings!"
The Tortuga came crashing down to the ground and skidded across it, with everyone still inside it, until it crashed onto a pile of rocks.
"Awesome landing!" Chris said.
"Check it out, Chris!" Martin said, as he, Chris and the Jurassic Siblings all raced to the garage. "The Tortuga decided that our next adventure will be…"
"The Sonoran Desert!" Both brothers cheered in unison.
"Oh, Yeah! We totally forgot about this." Chris said. "But the Sonoran Desert is one of the coolest places on the planet."
"Think about all the creatures who live here." Martin said.
"Rattlesnakes!" Chris said.
"Roadrunners!" Martin said.
"Javelinas!" Chris said.
"Coyotes!" Martin said.
"Elf Owls!" Chris said.
"Gila Monsters!" Martin said.
"Cougars!" Chris said.
"Ringtail Cats!" Martin said.
"Don't get too excited yet." Koki said. "We've got a major problem here. And I mean major!"
Both brothers gasped.
"Oh-No! It's even worse than I feared!" Koki said.
"What, Koki? What is going on?" Aviva asked.
"The Tortuga is dying." Koki said.
"What?!" The others gasped in shock.
"What do you mean, "dying"?" Aviva asked.
"Well, you know how tellurium crystals are essential for all of the Tortuga's functions? Semi-conduction of the power systems, navigation systems, computer systems and particularly the power function of the Creature Power Disc press?" Koki asked.
"Mm-hmm." They others said in unison.
Amber, Tyrana, Skylie, Bumpo, Hornster and Grubby all tilted their heads confused, as they've never heard about tellurium crystals before until now.
"Well, the tellurium crystals are failing." Koki said. "Soon, they will be completely spent!"
The others gasped as one crystal burned out.
"Looks like some already are!" Aviva said
"We need tellurium for the Tortuga to work." Koki said. "If the tellurium crystals burn out completely, we won't be able to bring the Tortuga back online! Ever!"
"Wait, this is easy." Martin said. "We'll just get a new supply of tellurium."
"Not easy. Tellurium..." Koki said, before she was interrupted by the fact that she couldn't use the computer because of their predicament, so resorted to her CreaturePod. "Tellurium is a metalloid that is in very short supply. In fact, there's more of it in outer space than there is here on Earth! And it's even more rare than platinum."
"This means that, unless we find some more of this precious tellurium, my inventing days on the Tortuga are over!" Aviva said.
"And that means our adventuring with Creature Power days would be over, too!" Martin said. "And that also means that, when the time comes, we'll never be able to get Amber, Tyrana, Skylie, Bumpo, Hornster and Grubby all back to Isla Nublar when they're old enough to be returned."
"And we will have failed to keep our promise we made to Simon Masrani." Chris said.
"Koki, is tellurium found in the Sonoran Desert?" Aviva asked.
"Well, it could occur in small amounts anywhere on Earth." Koki said. "It's extremely rare. The trick is finding it."
Just then, Horse neighs and whinnies were heard, as Martin and Chris begin to head out on Horses to find tellurium crystals.
"We'll find us some tellurium in no time!" Chris said in a southern accent.
"Quicker than a Horse can crunch a sugar cube." Martin said in a southern accent.
"Wait, we have no communication system!" "Only the Creature Pod, and it's only at half power. So it's gonna be trickier for us to keep in contact."
"Don't worry! This won't take us long at all." Chris said.
"It's so shiny, it'll be easy to spot." Martin said.
And so, they headed out into the desert to find tellurium crystals.
"Alright, as soon as we spot something shiny in the ground then that's where we'll start to dig." Chris said.
Martin looked down to the ground and then gasped as he and his horse passed a fossil Smilodon skull. Then he looked at the saguaro cactuses and gasped again as he noticed that one of them somehow bizarrely had eyes staring at him.
"Hey, do you ever get the feeling that these cactus are watching you?" Martin asked.
"No, are you kidding me? Why?" Chris asked.
"Because that one has eyes." Martin said.
Then, from out of the hole in the cactus appeared an Elf Owl
"Oh, an Elf Owl!" Martin laughed. "Come on, bro, we gotta check him out."
"That's gonna have to be put on the to-do list as another adventure, bro." Chris said. "We have to find the tellurium. The future of the Tortuga depends on it!"
"Oh, yeah, yeah, you're right." Martin said. "We'll come back for you someday, Elf Owl!"
The Elf Owl watched as Martin, Chris and their Horses continued on their way.
Later, as Night fell, a Coyote was heard and seen howling at the moon.
"Oh, wow! A Coyote!" Chris said. "The most adaptable of all North American animals. Maybe he's standing on some tellurium. Let's go up there.
Martin then sprays Chris in the face with water.
"Nice try, bro." Martin said. "But you know that minerals are not likely to be found on mountain peaks. We gotta be looking on the ground."
Then he turned and saw something else.
"Look, a lizard!" Martin said. "Being chased by a Roadrunner! A real, actual, real-life Roadrunner!" He then started chasing after the Roadrunner on his Horse. "Yee-haw!"
"Ugh! We've got to stay on our tellurium crystal-finding mission! Hang on there, bro!" Chris said, as he brought out a lasso.
"Wait up, Roadrunner!" Martin shouted, as then, the lasso got a hold of him. "Aah! Ooh! Roadrunner!"
"Come on, Martin, don't get distracted." Chris said. "We're chasing tellurium, not Roadrunners."
"Spotted Skunk!" Martin gasped. "Aww! Oh, Gila Monster!"
Martin then cried in envy.
Meanwhile, back at the Tortuga...
"Come on!" Jimmy complained, as he was trying to work his controller. "My controller has nothing to connect with. It can't do anything! Hmph!"
"So, what do you think, Koki?" Aviva asked.
"Well, I think the guys don't have much time to find some tellurium crystals." Koki said. "The core of the Tortuga powered by the tellurium crystals will go into an irreversible shutdown in 3 hours!"
"Oh-No!" Aviva said, before she called the Kratt Brothers on her CreaturePod. "Calling Kratt bros!"
"Yeah, Aviva, go!" Chris replied.
"You only have-" Aviva said, before her voice was broken up by static buzzing.
"Pardon?" Martin asked, as Chris shrugged.
"Hey, Aviva?" Chris said. "Wait, there's no video!"
"I know, we have to conserve power." Aviva said. "Listen up, you only have 3 hours."
(Both brothers gasped from that)
"Yeah, 3 hours to get back here with some tellurium." Aviva said.
"And if we use any of the Tortuga's abilities, like the Teleporter or the Creature Power Press, each use will cut the core's life, and your time to find tellurium crystals, in half!" Koki said.
"Find the tellurium…" Chris said.
"And find it fast." Martin said.
"Got it!" Both brothers said in unison.
Just then, a rattling sound was heard and in front of them was a species of Rattlesnake; the Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, as it spooked and frightened the Kratt brothers' Horse.
"Whoa!" Both brothers exclaimed in unison.
The Rattlesnake continued rattling its warning to tell them not to come any closer to him.
"Whoa!" Both brothers exclaimed as they were bucked off the frightened Horse, who then took off running, leaving the brothers with the Rattlesnake.
"Um, Martin?" Chris said, as he landed dangerously close to the Rattlesnake when he was bucked off. "So, what do you do when you're face-to-face with a venomous Rattlesnake, with 1-inch fangs, that can strike in the blink of an eye, and is attracted to movement?"
"Don't move, bro." Martin said, as he then got the lasso Chris used on him, and got it around his legs.
"See ya!" Chris said, as he quickly pulled away from the rattling Rattlesnake by Martin, just as it striked at him.
"Ha! Gotcha'." Martin said.
"Phew!" Chris said. "Now that was a close-up look at one awesome snake!"
"You can say that again!" Martin said. "How about that rattle? It's made of special loose scales that rub up against each other to make that rattling sound. And it's that rattle that makes the rattlesnake the most polite snake!"
"Polite?" Chris inquired. "How is a rattlesnake polite?"
"Well, he always rattles you a friendly warning before he strikes and sinks his venom-injecting fangs into your arm." Martin said, as he playfully poked Chris' arm with two of his fingers.
"Or your face." Chris said, as he playfully poked Martin's face with one of his fingers. "And you know, when I was face-to-face with this guy, I had a real-close look at how his face is packed with incredible sensory powers: Sharp eyes that can see well in the daylight. Nostrils that have a good sense of smell. And a tongue that flicks in and out, tasting the air, making that good sense of smell great."
"Plus, there's another sense that... huh?" Chris said, before he and Martin noticed something.
"What was that?" Martin said.
The Rattlesnake seemed interested in whatever it was.
"Oh, he seems to know." Chris said.
"And wants to get closer to it." Martin said. "But if we can't see it, how can he?"
"He must be using the other sensory organ; those pits right under his nostrils." Chris said.
"Those pits that sense the body heat of animals!" Martin said. "Those pits that give the Rattlesnake the ability to see heat and find his prey."
"Like a Ground Squirrel!" Chris said, as they noticed it. "He knew that's what it was because a Rattlesnake can see heat."
"And so can we." Martin said, as he pulled out two pairs of heat vision goggles. "With our heat vision goggles!"
"Nice!" Chris said, as he took one pair. "Turning on."
"Hi, Chris! Do you see me?" Martin said.
"Oh yeah, Martin. You're waving?" Chris said.
"Okay, then now what am I doing?" Martin quizzed.
"You just jumped into a ninja pose." Chris answered. "Okay, my turn."
"Turning on!" Martin said, as he put and turned on his heat vision goggles. "Huh? Oops. I think I have these goggles on upside down."
"Nope, they're on right!" Chris said. "I'm doing a handstand! Now what am I doing?"
"You're walking like an Egyptian." Martin answered.
"You got it!" Chris said.
"Hoo-hoo, yeah!" Martin cheered. "Ho-ho, yeah!"
"Hey, look!" Chris said, as Martin gasped.
With their heat vision goggles on, they watched as the Rattlesnake chased the Ground Squirrel into a Ground Squirrel tunnel.
"Huh?" Martin said.
They then went over to the entrance of the Ground Squirrel tunnel.
"They went in there." Chris said. "I know! Let's get around underground the way a rattlesnake does! By going through the Ground Squirrel tunnels."
"We don't even have to dig." Martin said. "I bet those tunnels will lead us right to some tellurium somewhere down there."
"We can see with our heat vision goggles." Chris said. "Miniaturization, anyone?"
So, the brothers shrunk down to mini size and headed into the Ground Squirrel tunnel, where they saw the Rattlesnake pursuing the Ground Squirrel.
"Rattlesnake! There he goes! Let's go!" Chris said.
And they began to follow the hunting Rattlesnake.
"It's kind of weird not having Aviva and the gang checking in on us all the time." Chris said.
"Yeah, kind of weird." Martin said.
Meanwhile, back at the Tortuga...
Aviva, Koki, Amber, Tyrana, Skylie, Bumpo, Hornster and Grubby were in the dark with a few lanterns to provide light.
"Alright, I've turned everything off I can think of." Jimmy said.
"Okay, then. We're in emergency power-saving mode." Aviva said.
"And the tellurium core is on life support." Koki said. "We only have enough power for either one Creature Power Disc creation, maybe half a Miniaturizer recharge or one teleportation of an object. But only one choice and not all!"
"Let's see how the guys are doing with their search for tellurium crystals." Aviva said, as she brought out her
"Hello? Hello?" Chris and Martin called, through static buzzing.
"What the World?" Koki said. "Where on Earth are you guys?
"In Earth, actually." Chris said.
"Yeah, we're taking a new approach to our tellurium search. We're seeing with heat vision and walking around through the tunnels of ground squirrels, walking behind a rattlesnake and-" Martin said, before he tripped. "Whoa! Oomph! Uh, the only problem is pebbles on the ground don't give off heat. So, we can't really see 'em with heat-seeing goggles on.
"Wait a sec, if we can't see the pebbles that are tripping us, then we won't be able to see the tellurium crystals, either!" Chris said.
"We need to see with heat and with our eyes." Martin said. "Uh, Aviva? We need Rattlesnake Power Suits."
"That would not be a good idea." Koki said "Creating one Power Disc would suck up the remaining power. And remember, tellurium is very rare. Even with Rattlesnake Powers, there's no guarantee you'll find it."
"Oh, but Ground Squirrel burrows are extensive in the Sonoran Desert." Chris said. "Alone, they cover thousands and thousands of square miles."
"Of course we'll find tellurium." Martin said.
Soon, an alarm blared as another one of the tellurium crystals gave out.
"And we've got to do something." Aviva said. "If we don't find tellurium, the power core will fade out in just two hours anyway. We've got to try."
"We do kind of have to try." Jimmy agreed.
Even Amber, Tyrana, Skylie, Bumpo, Hornster and Grubby agreed.
"We've gotta try!" Koki said.
"I'm gonna start modifying the Eyelash Viper Disc with Rattlesnake Powers." Aviva said.
The Rattlesnake was still pursuing after the Ground Squirrel.
"Yeah, these Rattlesnakes' long, thin body design lets them go anywhere in the Ground Squirrel tunnels." Martin said. "He's just looking for a spot to set up an ambush."
Then, Martin's CreaturePod started beeping.
"Hello?" Martin answered.
"Martin, Chris, I'm done!" Aviva said. "The Rattlesnake Power Discs are ready! Jimmy, catch!"
"Energize and-" Jimmy said, before...
"Jimmy, No!" Koki yelled. "We don't have enough power for teleportation, you idiot!"
"Sorry! I forgot! Jeez!" Jimmy said.
Koki checked the status.
"We've got 30 minutes!" Koki said. "And then an irreversible meltdown begins. The Tortuga will be totally dead."
"But then how are we gonna get the miniaturized Rattlesnake Power Discs to the Kratt brothers so they can find the tellurium?" Jimmy inquired.
"Jimmy, you'll have to deliver them by hand!" Koki said.
"What?!" Jimmy said, before he started shuddering.
"He looks snake bit." Koki said, nonchalantly.
"Maybe that's what he's worried about." Aviva said, nonchalantly.
"Jimmy, it's your job to teleport the discs." Koki said. "And we can't do that now, so you've got to hand deliver them."
"Come on, Jimmy, you can do it." Aviva said.
"Okay, yeah, I can do it." Jimmy said.
"Yay! Woo-hoo!" Aviva and Koki cheered in unison.
"Alright! Alright!" Jimmy said.
So, Jimmy set out to hand deliver the mini-sized Rattlesnake Power Discs to the Kratt Brothers. But the spooky-sounding night sounds of the Sonoran Desert were starting to get to him, as then, he unknowingly bumped into a saguaro cactus.
"Aah!" Jimmy screamed.
"Uh, Jimmy? That's just a saguaro cactus." Aviva said.
"Oh! Huh, yeah, uh, I knew that." Jimmy said.
"Okay, Jimmy, keep going." Aviva said.
"Whoa!" Jimmy said.
Jimmy then continued on his way, as he then quickly hid behind another saguaro cactus, and looked around to check and make sure that the coast was clear. Just then, a Spider lowered towards him, and he quickly moved aside, continuing forth, moaning and whimpering at the spooky-looking night scenery and spooky-sounding night sounds of the Sonoran Desert.
"Oh, no! Oh, my!" Jimmy quivered, as he shut his eyes.
Then, the Ground Squirrel and the Rattlesnake passed him, as Chris and Martin ran up to him.
"Hey, Jimmy!" Chris said, frightening Jimmy.
"Aah!" Jimmy shouted, as he hid behind a rock.
"Nice!" Chris said.
"Chris? Martin?" Jimmy said, peeking over from behind the rock.
"Perfect timing, buddy!" Martin said, as he and Chris inserted the discs into their Power Suits
Thanks, Jimmy!" Chris said.
"You're welcome." Jimmy said, shudderfully.
Just then, the Ground Squirrel and Rattlesnake appeared again, frightening Jimmy, who then took off running back to the Tortuga.
"Catch ya later, Jimmy!" Chris said.
Then, the Rattlesnake neared them as he was chasing the Ground Squirrel.
"Okay, get ready." Martin said.
"Wait! We don't wanna touch this end." Chris said, as they inched closer to the Rattlesnake.
"Rattlesnakes have big, rough scales." Martin said. "Oh, and check out this pattern. See the diamonds? That's why this species is called a diamondback rattlesnake."
"Okay, now!" Chris said.
"Activate Creature Power Suits!" Both brothers said in unison, as they touched the rear end of the Rattlesnake and pressed the Activation Buttons.
And soon, they both activated into Rattlesnake Power Suits.
Rattlesnake Powers!
"Hey, let's get underground and find that tellurium."
Soon they headed back underground to look for and find tellurium crystals.
"Wow, we can really get around down here with Rattlesnake Powers." Chris said.
They started searching for tellurium crystals, accidentally throwing and dropping dirt and soil on each other, then they gasped at what they then saw; the Rattlesnake and Ground Squirrel.
"He sprung an ambush on the squirrel!" Martin said.
"And has him cornered!" Chris said.
"The rattlesnake has the squirrel in his sights." Martin said. "Rattlesnake Vision on!"
"With ya, bro." Chris said.
Then the Ground Squirrel did something that could only be seen with Rattlesnake Vision.
"It seems like the squirrel is growing." Martin said.
"That's his tail!" Chris said. "The ground squirrel is pumping blood to his tail, making it hotter and hotter, and making the squirrel seem bigger and bigger."
The rattlesnake then struck at the tail, missing the squirrel, and giving him enough time to escape, with the Rattlesnake still after him.
"Whoa!" Both brothers said in unison.
"He fooled him!" Chris said.
"The rattlesnake struck at the big twitching tail and completely missed the squirrel!" Martin said.
"That was a rarely seen creature moment." Chris said.
"Yeah, and talk about rare, look!" Martin said.
"Tellurium crystal!" Both brothers exclaimed in unison.
"Yes!" Martin said.
"We did it!" Both brothers said in unison.
"Ha, that's right!" Chris said.
"But we're running out of time. Quick, let's get this… " Martin said, before the crystal then came loose and fell deeper into the tunnel.
"Oh-No!" Martin said, as they chased after it.
"Don't lose it!" Chris said.
However, unknown to them the tellurium crystal got buried underneath some rocks.
"The tellurium crystal!" Both brothers said in unison. "Uh-Oh!"
"I don't see it!" Martin said. "We need that crystal to save the Tortuga. It must have gone down one of these tunnels."
"Which one do we take?" Chris said.
"Uh, the one that the tellurium crystal bounced down?" Martin said.
"Yeah, but which one is that?" Chris said. "If we choose the wrong one, we'll run out of time and the Tortuga will die!"
"Uh... Uh, uh.. that one!" Martin said. "Aah!"
"Why that one?" Chris asked.
"Because it doesn't have a Gila Monster crawling out of it!" Martin answered.
They then both screamed and went down the tunnel they suggested as a Gila Monster came crawling out of one of the other ones.
"Great, what I'd love any other time, but don't need right now, is a venomous lizard with a crushing bite."
Aviva then called them.
"Bros, any luck?" Aviva asked.
"Yeah! We found a tellurium crystal!" Chris said.
"Yay!" Aviva, Koki and Jimmy cheered in unison.
"But then we lost it." Chris said.
"Aww!" Aviva, Koki and Jimmy groaned in unison.
"But we're gonna find it again!" Martin said.
"Yay!" Aviva, Koki and Jimmy cheered in unison.
But then the alarm started blaring again.
"I hope so, and you have to hurry." Koki said. "There are only ten minutes left until the Tortuga descends into an irreversible disastrous meltdown!"
"We're on it!" Chris said.
They then slithered further on, until...
"Hey, Chris?" Martin said.
"What?" Chris said.
"You feel that?" Martin asked.
"Feel what?" Chris replied.
"Like we just entered a big open space." Martin replied. "Quick, switch to heat vision."
Martin then gasped.
"Whoa! Are you seeing this?" Martin asked. "It looks weird, like there are warm things down there but not really hot."
"And not clear." Chris added. "Just some weird, warmish pattern."
"Let's throw a little light on this." Martin said.
They switched off heat vision and then they both gasped at what they were seeing.
They were in a hibernaculum of Rattlesnakes.
"We are in a hibernaculum!" Chris said.
"And what a gathering, the rattlesnakes are one of the most social of all snakes." Martin said. "I don't believe it. Look!"
"Tellurium crystals!" Both brothers exclaimed in unison.
"Whoa, awesome!" Martin said.
"Okay, all we have to do is sneak in there, load up and get out." Chris said.
"Let's do this thing." Martin said.
Just then, as they approached the tellurium crystals, one of the sleeping Rattlesnakes woke up and noticed them.
"Whoa! Easy, easy…" Martin said. "Uh, that's it, fella. "Rock-a-bye snakey, on the tree top"."
They then quickly rushed over to the tellurium crystals, and Chris contacted the others.
"Hey, everybody! We found tellurium crystals!" Chris said. "The Tortuga is saved!"
The others cheered and Amber, Tyrana, Skylie, Bumpo, Hornster and Grubby shrieked and squealed in celebration.
But then, suddenly, the alarm started blaring.
"It's not going to be that easy!" Koki said. "The Tortuga is on the verge of a core meltdown! You have five minutes to get that tellurium here. After that, no amount of crystals will help. The Tortuga will be finished! Hurry! Guys?! Guys?!"
Chris and Martin raced and struggled to the nearest exit of the Ground Squirrel tunnels with the tellurium crystals.
"Alright, let's move!" Chris said. "What are you waiting for?"
He then gasped as he saw what is was; a Western Spotted Skunk.
"Keep going, Chris!" Martin said. "I'll warn this skunk off with Rattlesnake Powers."
"Thanks, bro!" Chris said.
Martin rattled his tail to warn off the skunk before quickly catching up to Chris.
Then, a Coyote was heard howling.
"Whoa, looks like I've got a bigger customer up here!" Chris said.
The Coyote then charged at Chris, who then rattled his tail to warn him off.
"People think rattlesnakes are scary, but they're just defending themselves." Chris said.
The Coyote growled as he slowly backed away.
"Way to go, bro! Uh, but don't take long to catch up!" Martin said. "We gotta get the tellurium to the Tortuga!"
At which, the alarm was still blaring.
"We're out of time!" Koki said. "Abandon Tortuga! Meltdown will commence in one minute! I repeat, abandon Tortuga!"
"I'm coming!" Jimmy said.
They all began to evacuate the Tortuga, when...
"Wait!" Chris shouted.
"We've got tellurium!" Both brothers said in unison.
"We have to hurry! We have less than a minute left!" Koki said.
"Here it is!" Chris said.
"And not a moment too soon!" Koki said."I just hope I can replace the crystals in time. Keep your fingers crossed!"
On Jimmy's CreaturePod, the battery of the core of the Tortuga was almost completely spent.
"Uh-Oh!" Jimmy said, as Aviva gasped.
Koki makes it to the core of the Tortuga, skids on a first aid kit box, and manages to replace the tellurium crystals at the very last possible second, just in the nick of time!
At last, the Tortuga finally repowers and was finally back online!
The others cheered and Amber, Tyrana, Skylie, Bumpo, Hornster and Grubby shrieked and squealed in celebration.
The Tortuga saunters off the rock pile it was lying on and opens its front ramp as Koki then rejoins and rejoices with the others.
"The Tortuga is saved!" Chris said.
"Thanks to Rattlesnake Powers!" Martin said.
And both brothers rattled their tails in victory.
Author's Note:
Well, that's one down, and only three more to go.
Sorry, again, for another temporary delay.
