It was a stormy and windy night at 7:00pm on Friday in Los Angele's, and the Chipmunks and Chipettes were getting ready for movie night, and their was thunderclaps outside their house. Simon looked outside and saw the bad weather like never before.
"Man, that rumbling outside is a bit scary" said Simon looking scared.
"Don't worry Simon, we're for each other. We'll keep each other company at all times" said Alvin.
"Yeah Simon, we're going nowhere" said Theodore hugging Simon. Alvin approached Simon and hugged him as well.
"Thanks guys" Simon replied giving the hug back. But Simon knew inside he wasn't afraid of a little rain or thunder, but this one was a bit worst.
While the girls were next door to the boys, and they were going through the same thing. "
Boy, that storm doesn't look good" said Jeanette.
"It's okay Jeanette, as long as you got us and the boys, they'll be nothing to worry about" said Brittany.
Jeanette gave Brittany a smile and she and her sisters then joined the Chipmunks who bumped into each other as were going downstairs.
"Sorry guys" said Brittany rubbing her head.
"That's okay, we were going downstairs as well. Didn't know that would happen" said Alvin.
"Well now that's now done, let's head downstairs" said Simon. The others gathered themselves and followed Simon down and up on the couch.
"So what movie are we watching?" asked Theodore.
Then suddenly just before they could decided, another sound of thunder hit and knocked the power out of the house.
"Ahhhhh!" screamed everyone.
It was completely pitch black in the house, and everyone couldn't see a thing.
"Oh no, the power's out" said Alvin.
"That's just great. Just as we were about to enjoy a nice movie, the thunder knocks the power out" said Brittany.
Simon then just the window open and looked out and saw the whole neighborhood was pitch black as well.
"Looks like that thunder knocked out power in the whole neighborhood" said Simon. Alvin then tried to sense where he wanted to go and fell off the couch.
"Ow" said Alvin.
"Are you okay Alvin?" asked Brittany.
"Yeah, I think so" Alvin replied. Then everyone heard loud and heavy breathing coming from one of them.
"Who's what breathing hard?" asked Eleanor.
"It's not me" said Alvin.
"Not me" said Simon.
"It certainly isn't me" said Brittany.
"Guys, I think it's Jeanette" said Theodore.
"Jeanette, are you alright?" said Simon. Then another roar of thunder happened and Jeanette then screamed making everyone cover their ears.
"I guess not Simon" said Brittany.
"I really can't see anything guys, not without any sort of light" said Alvin.
"Where's Dave?" said Brittany.
"I don't know. He could in his room still" said Theodore.
Jeanette was still breathing hard and panicking.
"Simon, can you try and calm Jeanette?" said Alvin.
"I'll try bro" replied Simon as he got down from the window and carefully followed his scent.
"Jeanette, can you hear me? It's me, Simon" he said. Simon then heard her breathing was close and then a flash of lighting lit the house and Simon then saw Jeanette behind the couch and she quickly rushed to him.
"Jeanette, calm down. I'm here. But you're squeezing me too tight" said Simon near choking.
"Sorry" she said.
"Simon, did you find Jeanette?" said Brittany.
"Yeah, she's safe. We're behind the couch" he replied. Dave then appeared with a flashlight in hand.
"I think the entire neighborhood has lost power in their home's as well" Dave said pointing the flashlight at the 6 Chipmunks. Brittany was holding onto Alvin, and Theodore clinged onto Eleanor.
"Everyone okay?" Dave asked. Another thunderclap caused everyone to scream again.
"I'm thinking no" he finished.
"Until the power comes back and the storm is gone, no-one is going to sleep". Then the doorbell rang. "That's the neighbors. Here guys, take a flashlight. We're gonna need them".
Dave gave Alvin and Brittany a flashlight while he dealt with the neighbors.
"Simon, Jeanette. Can you still hear us?" Alvin asked.
"Yeah, we're trying to find our way back" said Simon in distance.
"Stay their guys, we've got a flashlight Dave gave us. We'll come and get you" said Brittany.
Alvin quickly noticed that Theodore and Eleanor were by themselves with nothing at all next to them.
"Wait Brit, what about Theodore and Eleanor? They'll need someone to share the light with" said Alvin.
Brittany then realized that Alvin was right and she went back to him.
"I'll go and get them, you stay with Theo and Eleanor" said Alvin. "
Okay" she replied and went over to comfort Alvin's brother and her own sister.
"It's okay guys, I'm here" said Brittany giving some light to the two. "
Thank you Brittany" said Theodore.
"Where's Alvin?" said Eleanor.
"He's going to get Simon and Jeanette" Brittany replied.
"I hope he's careful" said Theodore.
Alvin shunned the light in the direction he was going in. Simon and Jeanette then saw light coming towards them.
"Simon, Jeanette. Where are you?" Alvin said.
"We're here Alvin, behind the couch" Simon called back. Alvin then followed Simon's voice and then he found the two.
"There you guys are" said Alvin with a relief."You guys okay?" he asked.
"We are now. Thanks Alvin" said Jeanette.
"Sure thing" Alvin replied. "Come on. Let's get back to the others".
Simon and Jeanette nodded and got to their feet and followed Alvin.
"I've got them Brit" Alvin called out. Brittany then quickly shunned her light to Alvin who indeed had Simon and Jeanette behind him.
"Thank goodness you two are okay. Are you hurt at all?" she asked.
"No we're fine Brittany" said Simon. All of the Chipmunks were back together but then Alvin's flashlight started flicking knowing that the power in his was almost used up.
"Uh oh, my flashlight's about to go dead" Alvin said. Brittany then has the same thing and they were then in trouble of pitch blackness again.
"Mine's almost dead as well. This is not good" said Brittany. Their flashlights continued to flicker and then the light went out.
"Oh that's just perfect" said Brittany.
"Guys, we can not separate no matter what now" said Simon. Thunder then struck again causing everyone to fall on each other.
"Okay this is a bit awkward" said Jeanette. The others then chuckled and laughed.
"I'm glad to see you calm Jeanette. Nice to hear you joke" said Eleanor.
"I think we're all lovers in this position" said Theodore.
"I think it's romantic" said Alvin.
"Well you're right on that one Alvie" said Brittany using his nickname.
"Hey, I said don't call me Alvie with the others here" said Alvin looking embarrassed. They all laughed again this time with Brittany and Alvin. Then Simon saw some candles that were lit and he had an idea how that happened.
"Guys, candles are lit".
"Do you think that was Dave?" said Theodore.
"Absolutely Theo. Dave always had a backup idea for any situation" said Alvin.
"Where is Dave anyway?" asked Brittany.
"He's with the neighbors Brittany" said Simon.
"Simon's right about earlier. The whole neighborhood's electricity is down and they're trying to get someone through a telephone line to get the power back" said Jeanette.
"Well at least finally we have candles lit as light" said Alvin. "
That's the main important thing" said Eleanor. Then Theodore disappeared somewhere in the lounge and the others getting worried.
"Hey Theo, where did you go?" asked Alvin.
"I am somewhere, but I'm not telling you. You'll have to come and find me" Theodore's voice said.
"Guys, I can't believe Theodore is brave now" said Simon almost in surprise.
"I'll say. What's made Theodore be as brave as he's being right now?" asked Brittany.
"It doesn't matter right now. I'll go and find him" said Simon. "Theodore, come out come out where ever you are".
Alvin was giggling and Brittany tried not to laugh because they now knew Theodore was playing games. "
Wow Dave, you really should try and keep this tidy" said Theodore quietly hiding in the closet. "Hey Ellie, I found that spare recipe sheet".
"Thanks Theodore" Eleanor said back.
Alvin and Brittany were then laughing at the amusement as Simon was then close to finding his younger brother. That gave Simon a hint of where Theodore was.
"Okay Theodore, I know you're in the closet" said Simon in a joking way.
"Okay, you found me. Boo!" said Theodore popping his head out scaring Simon making him fall on his back.
Alvin and Brittany were then laughing again and Jeanette knew it was a game so she joined in as well as Eleanor.
"Theodore, what was that for?" Simon asked.
"Because it was funny" he replied giggling.
"Well it was, I'll give you that" Simon replied.
"Hang on, I'm coming out" Theodore said as he made his way of the pile and emerged from underneath. But his lower then got caught underneath and he then got stuck.
"Uh Simon, a little help?" Theodore said.
"Okay, I'll get ya out" said Simon as he approached him but Theodore then quickly grabbed his foot and held on tight.
"Ahh Theodore, why have you got my leg?" Simon asked.
"Come on Simon, try and pull me out with your foot, I'm asking you" said Theodore.
Simon sighed and then nodded and started to pull his brother with his ankle standing up. Simon pulled a few more times, but he couldn't budge his brother. As Simon tried to turned round he fell onto his stomach, and Theodore grabbed his other ankle and now had both of Simon's feet in his paws.
"Simon, I bet you can't pull Theodore out with just your feet" said Alvin.
"You're on bro. Let's get you out Theodore" said Simon as he pulled on his stomach as he could not use his paws.
"Come on Simon, prove Alvin wrong. You can do it" Theodore said encouraging him. Simon then pulled Theodore with all he had, but Theodore then let go of one of Simon's ankles and held onto one.
"Is that better Simon?" Theodore asked.
"Yeah. Now I can put my foot in for traction" Simon replied and yanked his brother with one bare foot. "Nnnnnrrrrg" Simon grunted but he was moving as well as his brother.
"It's starting to work Simon, keep going".
Simon then gave one pull with all his might as Theodore felt Simon's left foot slipping out of his grip. "
Look's like you're going to lose this bet Alvin" said Brittany looking at her counterpart.
"Thanks for reminding me Brit" said Alvin.
Theodore looked at his paws and now had Simon by his toes.
"Almost their Simon".
"Nnnnnnnrrrrrrrrg" Simon grunted as he then finally pulled Theodore out and both went flying to the others.
Simon then gathered himself and get to his feet and helped Theodore up.
"You and your strong legs Simon" said Brittany.
"Thank's Brittany. Alvin, even though Theodore hanged onto my left foot, technically I still got Theodore out with my feet. So you lose this one bro" said Simon smirking at Alvin.
"Okay, you proved me wrong" said Alvin extending a hand out to Simon. Simon took his hand and they both shook paws. Then the front door opened and Dave was drenched from the rain outside.
"Dave, you're dripping on the carpet" said Simon.
"Well the rain outside started a few minutes ago, sorry" said Dave.
"What's happening? Do you know when the power's coming back on?" asked Brittany.
"Unfortunately we couldn't get contact to anyone because the line's were dead" said Dave.
"So we are stuck with no power for the rest of the night?" Alvin said.
"I'm afraid so Alvin" Dave replied. "Everything alright here. Jeanette, have you relaxed a bit?".
"I have Dave, with a little help from Simon" Jeanette said winking at him.
"There's nothing we can do for the rest of the night, we'll just have to wait and see what tomorrow brings" Dave said.
"Dave, it okay if we sleep in the lounge? I don't want to go back into our room if theirs no light" said Theodore.
"I agree with Theodore, we'll be lucky not to bump into walls or trip over things to find our beds" said Simon.
"Please?" said Brittany, Alvin, Jeanette, and Eleanor together. Dave thought about it and nodded.
"Okay, I'll go and get your pillows and bed sheets".
"Thanks Dave, can you get my Teddy as well?" said Theodore.
"Sure" Dave said as he upstairs and got the kids their stuff. 30 minutes later, everyone was then was then asleep, but one of them was still awake. Jeanette looked around and saw the candles were out. She wasn't scared anymore but the storm was still giving her problems sleeping. Jeanette then went to Simon but she hit her foot on the table finding her way.
"Oww" she said covering her mouth. Once she was at her counterpart, she gently shook him and he was now awake.
Simon then put his glasses on and saw Jeanette next to him. "Jeanette, what is it?" Simon asked.
"I can't sleep on my own. I'm still a little bit nervous" she replied.
Simon then sat up and placed a paw on her shoulder and smiled.
"It's okay Jeanette. It's good that I helped you not be afraid of the storm" Simon said. Jeanette smiled back and placed her lips on Simon's and gave him a kiss and parted her's from his. Simon then returned it and put his on Jeanette's. After their lips parted, Jeanette rested next to Simon and put her head on Simon's chest.
"Simon, is it okay if I sleep next to you tonight?" she asked her counterpart.
"Of course you can" said Simon as he placed his feet on her lap and she placed her paws on his ankles and gripped tight.
Jeanette sighed happily that she had Simon with her and gave another kiss, this time on his nose. "Thank's for being there Simon. Good night" she whispered in his ear.
"Good night Jeanette" Simon replied quietly and they both drifted to sleep with dreams for each other.
It was 11:00am on Saturday, the day after the storm hit Los Angele's, it did serious and major damage to the neighborhood. A few trees had fallen on people's houses, and more damage from fallen trees, collapsed poles, and more of the above. Dave and some other people that had suffered the storm and had their home's, were fixing their houses up and called more people. While the Chipmunks and Chipettes were still inside their home, still thinking the storm that hit last night.
"Oh my gosh guys, look at the neighborhood" said Brittany.
"Good gosh, those poor people" said Simon feeling bad.
"I can't believe that storm last night did that much damage, how can you not forget about it?" said Alvin.
"Is Dave out there?" said Eleanor.
"He is. He's helping out those people who were hit by the storm" said Theodore.
Simon looked at Jeanette and saw her on the table and went to her and placed a hand on her shoulder. But it made Jeanette jump and she fell off and on the floor.
"Jeanette!" yelled Simon as he went to check on her. Jeanette sat up and shook her head and turned to see Simon next to her with concern on his face. Jeanette saw deep in his eyes that he really cared.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Yeah. Just, don't sneak up like that" Jeanette replied as she tried to get to her feet but then had trouble. "
You sure you're okay?" Simon asked her again. "
Yes, I'm okay Simon" she replied but then grasped her foot in pain. "No, I'm not really" she then finished.
Simon lent a paw to her and helped her up and gave his shoulder for Jeanette to lean on and helped her over to the couch. Simon then let Jeanette down and as he was getting on the couch, Jeanette grasped his foot. Simon then looked down and saw his counterpart grab his ankle and knew she wasn't going to let go. "
Simon, help me up. You did it with Theodore, you can do it with me, please" said Jeanette looking Simon deep in his eyes.
Simon couldn't say no to her asking and started to pull her up on the couch with his same foot he pulled Theodore free with. Once they were both fully on the couch, Simon then looked at her leg, the touch from his paws made her twitch a bit but she ignored it.
"Nothing too serious, just keep off your feet for half an hour, and you'll be completely fine. Promise" said Simon looking in her eyes.
"Thanks Simon. I am so lucky to have you as a friend" said Jeanette as kissed him on the nose making him blush. Brittany then turned to see Simon holding Jeanette and saw that her sister was also in pain and rushed to her.
"Sis, are you okay? Simon, what happened to her?" Brittany asked.
"Brit it's okay. I just sprained my leg a little, nothing too serious" Jeanette said.
Alvin then entered the room and saw Brittany with Jeanette and Simon.
"Guys, everything okay?" Alvin asked looking worried.
"It's all good Alvin. I just hurt my leg a bit that's all" said Jeanette.
"Are you alright?" Alvin asked with concern.
"Yeah. Simon told me to keep off my feet for a little while" she replied.
"Well I'm just glad no-one was seriously hurt or injured" said Brittany. "
Yeah. I certainly want to forget last night" said Alvin. Simon, Jeanette, and Brittany nodded and looked at each other.
"Do you want me and Brit to give you a bit of alone time for a little while?" said Alvin.
"If you wouldn't mind Alvin" said Jeanette. "Sure thing. Come on Alvie, I'll challenge you to a game of Mario Kart" said Brittany now smiling.
"You're on Brit. Guys if you need anything, you know where we are" said Alvin.
"Thanks guys" said Simon as Alvin and Brittany then went upstairs to play their game leaving Simon and Jeanette alone for now.
"Hey Simon, do you wanna watch a bit of TV?" she asked.
"Well after what all of us went through the previous night, I could use a bit of cheering up" Simon replied. So he grabbed the remote and switched the TV on and relaxed on the couch. Jeanette then placed her feet on Simon's lap like he did.
"Simon, can you give my leg a stroke?" she asked her counterpart.
"Okay, I promise I'll be gentle" Simon replied as he placed her paws on her good leg and stroke her slowly and gently.
"That feel's much better Simon. Thank you" said Jeanette.
"Anything for a friend" he replied as he then took a paw in his and gripped lightly and they both continued to watch TV. It was 2:00pm in the afternoon, and all of the Chipmunks were all upstairs in their room looking out the window and saw thankfully they saw all the houses were repaired as good as new.
"I'm so glad all of those people and us, can finally move on" said Simon.
"I couldn't agree with you bro" said Alvin.
"Hey guys, where's Jeanette?" asked Brittany. Everyone looked around and saw that she was definitely not with them.
Meanwhile Jeanette was downstairs trying to put a brave face, but so many thoughts were racing through her mind she wasn't able to think straight. Then she felt a panic attack happening and went all dizzy stumbling all over the lounge, and then she vision going blurry and black as she collapsed onto the floor unconscious. The other 5 Chipmunks heard a thump from downstairs and were starting to get very worried.
"What was that?" said Eleanor.
"I'll go and find out" said Brittany as she then sprinted out the room and downstairs and looked around, but is horrified when she sees Jeanette unconscious and not moving.
"Jeanette!" she yelled rushing over to her fallen sister and knelt beside her.
"Oh my gosh. Jeanette speak to me" Brittany said shaking her gently but got no response. "Help! Help!" she yelled.
The others heard Brittany yelling for help and knew it wasn't good.
"That's Brittany, she's calling for help. Come on" said Alvin as he ran out the door with the others following. Once they got downstairs they were shocked as they saw Jeanette on the floor not moving.
"Jeanette!" Simon yelled as he went to her other side and knelt down. "Brittany what happened?".
"I don't know I just found her like this" Brittany replied back almost in tears as well. Alvin stood their with his paw over his mouth in shock while Theodore and Eleanor hugged each other crying.
"Can someone please help her?!" Simon yelled. "Help me please".
Dave then entered back into the house and saw the Chipmunks turned to Dave who were all around Jeanette still passed out.
"Oh my gosh, Jeanette!" said Dave. "
Dave, call an ambulance now" said Simon crying. Dave didn't say anything as he got the phone and dialed 999.
"Hi I need an ambulance. It's my son's friend, her name is Jeanette" Dave said. "She's unconscious and not responded. Simon, check if she still has a pulse".
Simon did what he was told and quickly grabbed her wrist and felt her palm. "She's still got a pulse, but it's faint Dave" said Simon looking back down at her with tears flowing down his face.
"Yes she's got a pulse" Dave said.
"Jeanette, don't die please. Please" said Simon as he went to Brittany and was crying his eyes out in her chest.
Alvin, Theodore, and Eleanor then had tears in their eyes knowing that they could lose Jeanette.
"Thank you, please hurry" Dave said hanging up the phone.
"I've called the ambulance guys, their on their way" he finished.
"Jeanette please, wake up" said Simon through watered eyes. Alvin then walked to Brittany trying to calm Simon down.
"Simon don't cry, it's going to be okay. I promise" said Alvin.
"Alvin's right Simon, we've got to be strong for Jeanette. I don't think she would want to see you crying. She would want you to be brave" said Theodore holding Eleanor's hand.
Simon then calmed down a bit and pulled off of Brittany and gave a little smile. "Thank you" he said through sniffles.
5 minutes later the ambulance arrived. The paramedics entered the house and immediately got to work.
"Please save her" said Simon.
"Alright I need everyone to make room" said the paramedic.
The others backed up while they attended to Jeanette. "Alright let's get her on the stretcher and let's get her to the hospital" said the other paramedic. So they placed her on the stretcher and took her to the ambulance while the others followed them outside.
"Can I go with her? Please?" said Simon. The paramedics looked at him and thought about it. "
Please, he's my son. He doesn't want to leave her" said Dave.
"Okay, climb in" said the paramedic.
"Thank you" Simon replied as he hopped in the ambulance.
"We'll meet you at the hospital Simon" said Brittany.
"Okay" said Simon as the paramedics closed the doors and got in the vehicle and drove Jeanette and Simon to the hospital.
"Come on guys, let's head to the hospital" save Dave. They got into Dave's car and he drove his kids to the hospital.
So Jeanette has collapsed and on her way to hospital, but will Simon's words and his love pull her through? Stay tuned for the next chapter and find out.
