Batty squeezed his eyes shut tight and let out a series of high-pitched squeaks. "Ping! Ping!" he chirped, trying to find a delicious moth using only his ears. "I am a radar dish with wings," he told himself proudly, listening to the echoes bounce back.
Suddenly, a massive *KABOOM* echoed through the trees, nearly vibrating Batty’s goggles right off his nose. It happened again—*KABOOM!* "An invisible thunder monster is attacking the forest!" Batty gasped, looking around frantically at the clear night sky.
He zoomed over to Professor Hoot, who was trying to nap. "The sky is breaking!" Batty cried. The Professor just ruffled his feathers and mumbled, "It is probably just the wind, my dramatic young friend," before tucking his head back under his wing.
Batty knew he had to be brave, so he flew down toward the scary noise, zigzagging through the branches like a secret agent. The sound grew louder and deeper: *BOOM... BOOM...* The very air seemed to shake near the forest floor.
He found the source: a large, old hollow log that was trembling with every mysterious explosion. "Come out, noisemaker!" Batty squeaked, striking a karate pose in the air. The log just went *BOOM* again, louder than ever.
Batty slowly peeked inside the dark wood, expecting a giant dragon. Instead, he saw a tiny, green tree frog sitting all alone in the middle. *Hic!* went the frog, and the hollow log amplified the tiny sound into a deafening roar.
"You have the mega-hiccups!" Batty laughed, realizing the log was acting like a giant speaker. He shouted "BOO!" so loudly that the frog jumped in surprise, and the hiccups vanished instantly. The monster was defeated!
