AN: heyy everyone! Bumper Sticker is back!! I'm having huge writers block for my first story 'The Warriors: Travel Through Time'. So I'm sorry for any of you who are waiting for updates. While I was trying to think up more ideas for that story, a sudden thought struck me, why hasn't there been an 'Alvin and the Chipmunks meet Dracula, or the Mummy'? I mean The Wolf man and Frankenstein aren't the only famous Hollywood monsters. Also Simon's vampire behavior will be most of the Twilight- vampire style. Referring to the famous best-seller series Twilight by Stephanie Meyer. Since something happened to both Theodore and Alvin in those two movies, I decided to write a Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet Dracula, and it's going to be centered around Simon. Also a good excuse to write about him because he is my favorite Chipmunk, hence why my name used to be Simonismymunk. Anyway, enough of my blah-blahing, on with the fic!

Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet Dracula
Ch.1: A Pile of Ashes
"ohh! Simon how much longer do we have to wait! Dave's going to be worried…" Theodore complained for the fifth-billionth time. Simon rolled his eyes and adjusted the strap of his book bag on his shoulder. He reached his arm out and checked his silver digital watch.
"Alvin's detention started after school at 2:35…it's been half an hour Theo, he should be out any second. We'll call Dave using the phone in the head office, he'll understand. This isn't the first time we've had to wait for Alvin to finish detention" Simon explained to Theodore again. Theodore pouted and sighed deeply. They leaned against the pink stone walls of the school building. Everybody had already gone home so the only sounds the two youngest brothers could hear was the chirping of birds and Theodore's stomach grumbling. Simon patted Theodore's head lightly in reassurance. Suddenly the front doors of the school slammed open and Alvin trudged out angrily.
"Who does she think she is!! Keeping me after school because of a silly spit ball, I mean really! I wasn't that bad! I barely even hit her!" Alvin shouted grumbling under his breath between yells. Simon glared at his older brother.
"You know she wouldn't keep you after class if you didn't spit it at her in the first place!" Simon argued, falling into step beside his brother. Theodore ran up on Alvin's other side.
"ya well her class is so boring the flies are falling asleep on the windowsills!" Alvin grumbled back.
"No…the flies are dead" Simon replied.
"Exactly! That's how boring it is!" Alvin shot back. Simon decided to drop the subject. His brother was not easy to reason with so why bother pushing it? The three chipmunks walked down to the sidewalk in the direction of their street, they were silent for a while. That's only until they saw a cute girl with red curly hair walk by. Alvin turned his head and followed her with wide eyes. Theodore grinned really wide.
"Hey Alvin! It's your Girlfriend! Vanessa!" Theodore giggled as she walked by. Alvin turned bright red and glared at Theodore.
"She is not my girlfriend!" Alvin argued. The girl smiled back at Alvin. Alvin blushed even deeper red.
"Go over and kiss her!" Theodore encouraged. Alvin shook his head. Theodore smiled wider.
"Oh Vanessa! C'mere, Alvin has something for you!" Theodore called. Simon held back a giggle as the girl turned around after hearing her name be called.
"Shut up Theodore!" Alvin snapped. Theodore's pupils shrunk to pin points.
"Alvin! You said the 'S' word!" Theodore gasped horrified. Alvin ignored him though. He quickly turned around and trudged forward ignoring the red-headed Vanessa who shrugged and continued walking away. Simon grinned as Alvin's running shoes pounded against the pavement of the white sidewalk.
"Alvin and Vanessa sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G," Simon sang, waving his finger to the beat. Theodore giggled and joined in.
"Be quite!" Alvin snapped.
"First Comes Love, Then Comes Marriage" Theodore sang.
"Then comes death! I meant it guys!" Alvin snapped quickly trying to cover Theodore's mouth.
"Then comes Alvin with a Baby Carriage!" Simon finished. He and Theodore exploded into a fit of giggles after and Alvin scowled at them. Simon wiped some tears from his eyes as he ceased his giggles. Simon and Theodore silently reminisced as the three walked past the old town stores on their way home. Suddenly they walked past a long dark alley that none of the Chipmunks had ever seen before. Alvin stopped and peered down the dark, thin alley. Simon noticed and tugged on Theodore's sweater so he would stop walking. They both stood next to Alvin and peered down the alleyway.
"What it is Alvin?" Theodore asked curiously cocking his head to one side, seeing to reason to stare down a scary, old alleyway. Suddenly Alvin's face brightened.
"Hey! I recognize that street on the other side! This is a shortcut to our house! C'mon lets go!" Alvin said and he took off walking into the shadow of the buildings. Simon's brain buzzed with worry.
"Are you sure Alvin?" Simon asked. Alvin shrugged.
"Sure, this way we don't have to walk longer" Alvin shouted back to them. Simon sighed and followed his brother. Theodore walked silently behind, lightly clutching onto the back of Simon's light blue sweater. Simon glanced up above him. Vines crawled up the sides of the two building on either side of him. A tall metal staircase climbed up from the cracked pavement up to a higher level on the side of one of the buildings. There were cobwebs everywhere and graffiti was sprayed all along the broken brick walls. A lump rose in Simon's throat for some reason, he swallowed it down and ignored the awkward feeling he got in this alley. He kept moving forward, wishing to get out of here. Their runners thumped lightly on the broken pavement of an old sidewalk that had big weed growing between the cracks. A sudden screech filled the alley way and some sort or dark bird flapped down from under the staircase. Theodore yelped and Simon jumped back. Alvin covered his head and yelped as well. The thing flapped noisily around their heads. It sounded sort of like a bat. The leathery wings brushed against the air as it flapped. It swooped down and started grabbing at their hair angrily. It screeched louder. Theodore and Alvin screamed.
"agh! We intruded in its space! It's angry c'mon lets go!" Simon yelled covering his head with his book bag. Pain suddenly shot through his hand and what felt like needles stung into the back of his hand. Caught of guard, Simon bit his lip so hard he started to taste blood in his mouth. The three brothers broke into a run and raced breathlessly frightened out of the alley way on to the other end of the alleyway. The bat did not follow. Alvin and Theodore screamed at the top of their lungs and ran at lightning speed past Simon. They all finally stepped into the bright sunlight and knelt down to catch their breath.
"Holy crap! What was wrong with that stupid animal!? We are never going down that alley again! Whose stupid idea was it to go down their in the first place!?" Alvin gasped between breaths.
"Yours" Simon and Theodore said at the same time. Alvin glared at them, but shrugged it off acting as if he never heard them. They walked the rest of they way home in silence, still catching their breath from their recent excitement. Once home Dave stood tapping his foot anxiously at the door.
"And would you care to tell me why you are so late boys?" Dave said in a warning tone.
"Alvin…detention" Theodore mumbled. Dave rolled his eyes, but his gaze quickly stopped on a red gushing color oozing from Simon's lip. The boys made a beeline for their room up stairs, but Dave quickly caught Simon's arm.
"Simon what happened!? Your lip is bleeding and so is your hand!" Dave said kneeling down and taking a closer look at Simon's hand. Simon had totally forgotten about the pain in his hand and the remembrance made the pain sting more. Simon shrugged.
"uuh I fell on the way home…" Simon said, quickly making up a lie. Simon wasn't usually one to lie but he really didn't feel like explaining the whole bat thing to Dave. Dave led Simon into the kitchen to get a band aid and clean the cuts. Dave raised Simon onto the counter and put his hand under the sink. Once the blood on Simon's hand had been washed off Dave looked worriedly at the wound.
"Oh no…it's swelling, I can barley make out where the cut is..." Dave mumbled. Simon glanced at his hand. It was puffed up quite a bit. He gagged a bit but regained his composure, a young scientist must not be afraid of a silly thing like a swelling wound.
"Maybe you should just put some disinfectant on it and rap it up" Simon suggested. Dave nodded and did what Simon said. Simon absentmindedly took off his bog round blue glasses and rubbed off the dirt on them on his sweater. It was hard because he only had one free hand. But he cleaned them enough to be satisfying. Dave had finished as soon as Simon had finished cleaning his glasses.
"I'll call the doctor though, it looks bad" Dave said. Simon just shrugged and jumped off the counter when Dave was done.
"Thanks Dave, I'll go do my homework now" Simon said politely. His hand stung a bit. The feeling bothered him but he shrugged it off as a normal feeling when you have a wound. Simon climbed the stairs and when he got into his shared bedroom Alvin was already bouncing his soccer ball off of his knee. Theodore was crushing nuts with his walnut crusher and feeding them to his 'Teddy'. Both of their school bags had been thrown on their beds. Simon rolled his eyes and dragged his bookbag ontop of his bed.
"jeez bro! why do you always do homework right after school?" Alvin complained. Simon didn't look at him as he replied.
"Because I'm the only sane one here and I have more responsibility" Simon replied and he took out his books.
"Well excuse me f I'm not the model citizen…" Alvin mumbled. He kicked his ball out of the room and turned on his T.V. He sprawled across his bed on his stomach a flipped through the channels. Simon winced as he put a little bit of weight on his hand, the stinging feeling suddenly felt hot, like it was burning. Simon ignored it the best he could though.
But Simon's hand bugged him all night; it had a really hot burning feeling. Dave constantly gave him ice to but on it to sooth the burning, but the ice did nothing but melt on Simon's fur. The burning never ceased and continued all night. By the time it was 8:30 and the boys were ready for bed, Simon's whole arm was burning. Simon writhed in his bed. The burning wouldn't stop. He didn't know what else to do. Alvin and Theodore had already fallen asleep and he couldn't ask Dave for ice because it wouldn't do anything. Simon clutched at his arm and bit his lip; which only reopened the cut on his lip. The whole night Simon tossed and turned while his arm felt like it was burning off. It soon felt so hot his arm went numb. By morning his whole upper body was burning. Dave told his to stay home. Unfortunately it was like this for the next 3 days. Simon's whole body felt like he was on fire and a he was sure by day 3 he was just a pile of ashes. He slowly fell into darkness. He couldn't hear anything or see anything. And if he tried to speak he would only end up screaming till his is voice ran dry. So Simon lay there, while he burned. The only thing her could do was count the seconds as they passed. By the end of day 3 the numbness in his body slightly faltered and he could start to feel his toes again. Slowly as each hour passed, the burning numbness faded and soon his whole lower body was back to normal. He felt hot hands on his forehead.
"He's so cold Dave!" a familiar high voice said worriedly. Simon heard the sound of someone walking on hardwood floor. Suddenly he felt wait push down on his bed.
"Don't worry Theodore, he'll be fine, at least he's not burning up anymore…" Dave's familiar voice replied. What!? Burning feeling gone!? What was he talking about? Simon was still half on fire! At least that's what it felt like.
"He's been getting colder every day…you don't think?" Alvin's voice broke at the end of his sentence; his voice was farther away, but still close. Simon kept his eyes closed, he wanted so badly to talk to them, tell them to do something about the burning, but he would only end up screaming. So he lay still and listened to them.
"Alvin! Don't you even think of it! See he is still breathing!" Dave said quickly. Alvin's voice didn't respond. Suddenly Theodore's breathing faltered. He was very close to Simon's side.
"D-Dave…he isn't breathing…I-I've watched his for the past five minuets!! He didn't take one breath!!" Theodore's voice rang out in panic. What? Simon was still alive, he could hear them, he could slightly feel the sheets underneath him, and he could even smell them. Was he not breathing? Simon couldn't tell…he hadn't thought much about whether he was breathing or not.
Dave's weight moved on the bed and Simon could slightly feel a weight on his chest underneath the burning feeling.
"I don't know Theo…his heart is still beating …though it's beating awfully fast" Dave mumbled against Simon's chest. Simon felt it now, his heart beat. It was beating fast just like Dave had said. The burning was hottest their, right on his heart. As the burning slowly faded it concentrated near his heart.
"I'm going to go call the Doctor again…wait here boys and don't touch Simon" Dave warned. Dave lifted his head and Simon heard him walk across the wood floor and leave the room. Theodore sighed shakily next to Simon. Alvin was still silent, though Simon could hear his shaky breaths. heck Simon could even clearly hear Dave talking on the phone with the doctor as if Dave was right beside him instead of downstairs talking in a whisper on what sounded like the crackling of the kitchen phone. Simon concentrated on Dave's voice. Once Dave was finished he walked out of the kitchen onto what sounded like the carpet on the front room. The rustling of a coat and the quick open and shut of the front door. Simon listened to Dave's shoes walking down the front path until they drifted out of hearing range. Simon's hearing was amazing. He could hear everything. Suddenly the burning had all concentrated over Simon's heart. His heart beat rapidly like the beat of humming bird's wings. It grew louder and louder and the burning feeling concentrated deeper. Suddenly Simon's heart faltered and suddenly stopped. The burning feeling was gone. Simon lay still for a moment.
Then his eyes opened.
