Chapter 1: Homework
Alvin Seville sat in the kitchen thinking. What was he going to do about that math homework he was given at school today. If he didn't do his homework today the teacher said she was going to fail him. Apparently not doing your homework for five months straight can get teachers a little irritated.
Of course Alvin being the tricky little eight year old that he was, was thinking of a way to get an A on his homework without actually doing it.
"I've gotta think of think of something!" Alvin yelled exasperatedly. "I can NOT fail the 3rd grade. Simon would never let me live it down!"
Just then Alvin got a tricky kind of smile.
"Simon wouldn't mind if I borrowed his homework so I wouldn't get in trouble."
Meanwhile
Simon and Theodore were in their room working on their homework. Simon was sitting at his desk and Theodore was laying on his bed. Simon was just finishing up his homework and putting it into his backpack.
"Theodore are you almost finished with your homework," Simon asked his little brother.
"We just got home 10 minutes ago, how can you possibly think I would even be close to being done," Theodore said in an amazed tone.
"Alright Theodore, I'll leave you to your homework. I'm going to go work on my time machine before Alvin has time to come and ruin it," Simon said in an annoyed voice remembering all the other experiments Alvin has ruined.
Meanwhile
Alvin was writing random numbers on a piece of paper so that he could switch the paper with Simon's.
"Alvin," Simon said walking into the kitchen were Alvin was, "I am going to work on my time machine and it would be nice if you would please not disturb me while I work on it."
"Simon I am deeply hurt" Alvin said faking some tears, "I can not believe that you would think your own big brother would do something to make you upset."
"Alvin, for the millionth time I'm your older brother and your my little brother," Simon said exasperatedly.
"And what makes you so sure about that," Alvin said testing Simon's knowledge.
"Because Alvin, when Dave found us we each had a birth certificate and it stated quite clearly that I was the oldest, you were in the middle and Theodore was the youngest," Simon said in a matter of fact tone. "Now if you will excuse me I have better things to do than tell you what you should already know."
Simon then left to the basement to work on his time machine. Alvin with an angry little pout about what his older brother had just said finished writing down some numbers and ran upstairs to their room.
Alvin ran into the room and skidded to a stop. Theodore looked up from his homework when Alvin came in. He only had a few problems left.
"Hey Theodore" Alvin said excitedly.
"Hi Alvin, did you finish your homework" Theodore said pointing towards the paper in Alvin's hand.
"No Theodore, I finished Simon's homework though," Alvin said smiling.
"Huh what do you mean Alvin?" Theodore asked.
"I'm going to switch this paper with Simon's homework so I won't fail the 3rd grade," Alvin said in a hushed voice.
"But Alvin-" Theodore said before he was cutoff.
"Theodore you have got to keep this a secret, okay!" Alvin said cutting Theodore off.
"O-Okay Alvin but please don't do this again!" Theodore said desperately.
"Okay Theodore, I promise," Alvin said nicely to his little brother.
Alvin then switched his paper with the one in Simon's backpack. Grabbing a pencil off of Simon's desk he quickly erased Simon's name and wrote his. Then he wrote Simon's name on a piece of paper that he'd done. Once he finished he put the paper's into his and Simon's backpacks. Almost as if on cue Dave just got home from work and called up to the boy's from the stairs that he was home.
'Tomorrow's going to be a long day' Theodore thought finishing up his homework.
