This time, and this night was the night when the chipmunks lives were changed. Their love as a family was damaged. Their happiness was damaged. The chipmunks were devastated. Especially one boy who never forgot what happened that night. The night when something so dear to him, left him and the rest of his family. The night when the tragedy happened. The night when the boys lost hope of finding happiness. and the night when they felt so alone.

"Alvin, wait for me" said a young female chipmunk as she followed a male chipmunk on all fours. The night was windy and cold making leafs that were scattered on the ground, fly in all directions. "Come on, we need to hurry or Simon might wake up any minute" replied the male chipmunk as he noticed a hollow tree 10 meters away. The male chipmunk was carrying a basket made with tree branches which was filled with nuts while the female chipmunk carried another basket filled with berries. The two finally arrived at their destination and they took their time catching their breath. "Phew, that was exhausting. Let's not do this again because we don't want Simon or Theodore to worry. You know what happened last time, Simon was furious because you didn't told him that we were getting food at night" said the female chipmunk before putting the basket on the ground. The male chipmunk chuckles as he remembered the angry look on his brothers face. "Oh come on, even if I were to tell him, he would try to stop me. He wouldn't let me go even if i wasn't going alone" replied the male chipmunk. The girl hands him her basket before opening a door to the hollow tree. She held the door open as the male walked in.

The girl closes the door on her way in and she was about to say something but then, she realizes that she must've dropped something that's special to her. "Um Alvin, I'll be right back. I think I dropped my Woden pendant on our way here" said the girl but, before she could take a step, Alvin gently grabs her shoulder. She turns and sees him glancing at the window before returning his attention to her. "We'll look for it in the morning. Right now we need to go to bed" said Alvin but, the girl refused. "What no, I need to get it now because I don't anyone stealing it" with that said, she opens the door and heads outside. Alvin was annoyed that the girl was being so stubborn. Alvin was about to head out to look for her but, someone stops him.

"Where have you been? and where's Yana?" asked another male chipmunk. He was tall, he had dark fur, and his eyes had the color of the ocean. "Aaah, Si you startled me. Don't do that or else I'm going to prank you" Alvin told his brother. The blue clad rolls his eyes and says "answer my question Alvin, where have you been and where's Yana?" Alvin gives him an innocent smile and says "well, She and I went to get us some food. That way we won't have to go in the morning when there are other chipmunks looking for food. And you know that it's good that I got us some food because, that pirate and that leach always go around stealing other chipmunks food during the day time" Pirate and leach are two male chipmunks that don't get along with anyone. The two always look for trouble and they alway mess with Alvin and his brothers. However the two never messed with Yana which Alvin thought was odd. Alvin knew that even though pirate and leach never bothered Yana, the two had bad intentions for her. Sometimes Alvin caught them looking at Yana in a weird way. Alvin always told Yana not to go near pirate and leach because, he didn't trust them. By the way, the Pirates real name is test and leach's name is Van. The reason why Alvin calls test pirate is because, test had a scar on his left eye and it was closed. He also had a scar on his chin. Alvin always called Van leach because, Van usually is the one to steal other chipmunks food and shelter. Alvin saw Van like a parasite. "Anyway, Yana went to look for something she dropped-" "guys what are you two fighting about now?" Alvin was cut off by another male chipmunk. He was short, chubby and had green eyes. Both brothers look at him and Alvin says "oh uh Si here was just upset that I got us some food this late at night instead of being grateful that Yana and I went this late at night getting us food Theodore" Their baby brother glances at the coffe table next to Alvin and sees the two baskets.

Meanwhile with Yana...

She was still looking for her wooden pendant that means so much to her. Since it has snowed, Yana followed her and Alvin's footprints that were on the ground. Lucky for her, it wasn't snowing so, she wasn't in danger but, even though she was safe from dangerous weather, she was not safe from what was stalking her...

"NO, NO, NOOOOOO, Yana run get out of there" Alvin shouted in his sleep before being awoken by Simon. "ALVIN, wake up, wake up, it's just a bad dream" said Simon before noticing his brother opening his eyes. Everyone one else including the chipettes were on top Alvin's bed watching as he breathed hard. Alvin was sweating so much and he had tears under his eye balls. Alvin wakes up to see Simon looking at him worriedly. He then looks behind his brother and sees the chipettes with worried looks. Alvin turns to face Simon. "oh Si, it was one of those dreams again. I can't believe that what happened on that night has come back to haunt me again" Alvin whispered to his brother. He did not want the chipettes to know what he was scared of. Alvin always wanted to look tough and brave in front of his crush Brittany but, the dream he had made him feel like a scared child hiding behind his mother not wanting to be seen by a clown.

"Shhhh, it's okay Alvin. It was just a bad dream. Relax" said Simon trying to calm down his brother. It broke Brittany's heart to see Alvin like this. She had never seen the boy who she deeply loves in such bad state. Just yesterday night, Alvin rescued the chipettes from Ian's hands and took them back to the school and winning the competition for the 25 thousand dollars for west Eastman high. Brittany was so happy that her and her sisters have Dave as a father figure and friends that love them. Brittany wanted to hug Alvin and comfort him, she wanted to calm him down but, she feels like her paws were glued to the bed. She didn't want to interrupt Simon and he seemed to have everything under control.

"Thanks Si, and guys? I'm sorry if I woke you up" said Alvin while blushing. "It's alright Alvin, but try not to watch anymore scary movies because I think it's starting to affect you" said Theodore. Alvin desperately wanted to say that that wasn't the reason why he was yelling making everyone wake up however, he didn't want to talk anymore so he nods. "Alright, goodnight Alvin" said Simon before hoping from Alvin's bed to his bed. Everyone else goes back to their own bed however one female chipmunk doesn't move. Alvin couldn't see Brittany looking at him because, his back was facing her but, he still could tell that she was on his bed by the good smell of her perfume touching his nostrils "Britt, aren't you going to sleep?" asked Alvin, trying to sound macho for his crush. Brittany gets on her knees and places a paw on his shoulder. "I will but, could you tell me what the dream was about?" she asked. Alvin flinched by her question and says "um I don't want to talk about it but, I appreciate for you worrying" Brittany gives him a weak smile and says "oh ok, goodnight" she gently pats his shoulder before hoping to her bed. Alvin sighs and in a few minutes, he felt back asleep.
