Summary: There's a reason Alvin acts like every breath will be his last. There's a reason for his leader skills. There's a reason he'll risk it all to help the ones he loves. But no one sees, no one really cares enough to look closer.


ALVIN

I paced back and forth on the island, alone. Everyone was angry, everyone was upset- At me.
"It's all your fault!" Brittany had screamed.
"Why can't you act your own age?" Simon had yelled. "You're a whole year older then me and Theo yet we act older."
"I can't believe you," Jeannette had said.
"This is your worst mistake ever," Theodor snapped.
"Why Alvin?" Eleanor had shrieked. "Why?"
I knew why and they all hated me for it. I knew this cause they had screamed this at me before I ran off.
Like a coward.
I looked out to the never ending sea and shook my head. If only...

FLASHBACK

I had only wanted to get a look at the boat from higher up. So, I climbed the string of a kite. The string had been tired to a chair so I assumed it was safe.
And besides, Dave was already pissed at me from the night before when he had his meeting with the caption.
"Alvin!" Simon squeaked from down below. "Get down from there."
I didn't answer because I was in awe. I could see miles of endless blue as the boat rocked gently. The breeze that should have been my warning to get down, was inviting as it slipped through my fur. My heavy red backpack was the only reminded that I wasn't flying. The thing that I made sure I always had with me.
"Alvin!" Brittany's voice echoed off the clouds... Or so it seemed. "Get your furry butt down here!"
"Guys," I squeaked, leaning over the edge of the kite "you've got to see this!"
I think the reason they even came up in the first place was the total awe in my voice. First, Simon got up here the Eleanor. I felt the kite fly higher and looked down.
When Jeanette appeared I knew we were in trouble.
"Not all at once!" I shrieked, but it was too late. The kite string had come un-knotted and we were flying slowly away from the boat.
"AHHHHHH!" Every Chipmunk and Chipette shrieked.
"ALVIN!" Brittany shouted angry from below. "This is all your fault."

A/N: Flashbacks will tell exactly how they ended up on the island and such.
