It was 6:00pm on a dry Friday evening, and Alvin and Simon had finished having their showers and drying themselves off. The two then crashed on the bed after a all day concert at the Staples center. They were literally out of breath and knackered.

"Boy, what a long day, huh Simon" said Alvin looking over at him.

"That's an understatment bro, all day concert. I'm exhausted like, wiped out" Simon replied.

"Boy, I'm surprised the girls are not worn out, I mean where do they get their energy from?" Alvin then said.

"I was about to ask you the same question bro. I have no idea how they do it" Simon said back. Then the two then just stared up at the ceiling after a long day.

Meanwhile downstairs the Chipettes with Theodore were watching TV, while Dave was in the kitchen reading the newspaper. Brittany was lying on the edge of the couch and rested her legs on Jeanette's lap. Theodore and Eleanor were holding hands while sitting next to each other. They saw their brother-in-laws Alvin and Simon sleeping in the car, while on the way home from their concert, they saw them almost like they had no sleep afterwards.

"Boy Brittany, did Alvin and Simon look tired or what?" said Jeanette.

"You can say that again Jean. It was almost like they didn't sleep well enough, or they just didn't sleep at all after the concert" Brittany replied.

"I guess they were that tired, and I'm even suprised neither of us had to carry them home, or even upstairs" said Eleanor.

"Well you know Alvin and Simon, one minute they'll be puffed out and have all the rest they need, and the next they'll be full of energy again and want to do another concert" said Theodore. Jeanette then giggled and Eleanor was just smiling.

"Boy what a day, having to handle a concert like that, I mean just insane" said Dave while reading.

"I wonder if the boys are in their room right now, getting their breath back" said Brittany.

"Where else are they going to go for a bit of quiet?" Jeanette said then snickering.

While back upstairs, Alvin and Simon were still staring at the ceiling wondering what to do next. Alvin then managed to sit up and went to the bathroom. Simon then saw his brother still lying on his back, he then tried to get up but then he felt back pain and then groaned.

"Alvin, wait" said Simon now in pain. Alvin stopped and turned around to and saw Simon with a painful look on his face. He was then a bit concerned and went to him and tried to help.

"What is it Simon? What's wrong?" Alvin then asked.

"I can't get up Alvin, I think I did my back in. Can you help me up?" Simon said offering a paw to his brother.

"Of course bro, come on. I'll help you" said Alvin taking Simon's paw and helping him up to his feet. Simon then fell but Alvin caught him and put his arm over his shoulder.

"You okay Simon?" he said looking at him. "Don't worry, I've got you".

"Yeah, I think it was that concert that did me in" Simon said.

"Simon, you should be resting, you can barely stand up at the moment" said Alvin trying to keep Simon up. He then tried to help him back to his bed, but Simon was a bit heavier then him, and he fell on his stomach and took Alvin with him.

"It's no good Alvin. I really can't get up. I've really done my back in" said Simon groaning in pain again.

"I'm just going to the bathroom Si, I'll be right back and I'll look after you" said Alvin as he was then making his way to the bathroom.

But as Alvin was walking past him, he grabbed his ankle and tried to stop his brother from leaving. Alvin then looked down and saw Simon holding his foot, which meant he then couldn't go anywhere at the moment. Alvin was worried about Simon that he couldn't leave him, but he had to go to the bathroom as well.

"Alvin please, don't leave me" said Simon pleading with his older brother. Alvin looked at him still holding his ankle, and then knew and saw how much Simon cared about him. Alvin was then about to do something he has never done before.

"Alright Simon, even though I have to go to the bathroom, I can't leave you as well. So seeing as you have my foot, I'll try and pull you along so I don't leave you. Okay?" Alvin said. Simon gave a nod and Alvin then started to make his way there while pulling Simon holding onto his ankle.

It was then starting to become hard work for Alvin, but he wouldn't give in and continued to walk while pretty much having to drag Simon along by his foot. Alvin was then there and was then by the toilet, and Simon managed to see that Alvin pulled him along and was now in the bathroom. He then felt more pain in his back and groaned again and had to let go of Alvin's foot and put his paw on his back.

"Simon!" said Alvin kneeling beside him. The Chipettes were then suddenly at the hallway next to the door and Brittany peaked an eye into the bathroom, and she gasped as she saw Simon on the floor in pain.

"Guys, something is wrong with Simon. He's hurt. Alvin's with him" said Brittany as she turned to her sisters. Jeanette was then starting to be very worried.

"Come on girls, we need to help Simon" said Brittany then walking in and Alvin saw her. "Alvin, what happened?".

"Simon did his back in, and I didn't want to leave him. So I had to help Simon in, while he was holding my ankle. I then heard him in pain again and I didn't know what to do" said Alvin starting to panic.

"Alvin calm down, it's not that serious" said Brittany.

"Don't worry Simon, we'll get you fixed up. I promise" said Jeanette.

"Jeanette, Alvin, stay here with Simon, I'll get some ice" said Brittany as she left and went downstairs. Alvin was still worried for his brother who was in agony. Simon tried to move but Jeanette stopped him.

"Simon don't move, you'll make your back worse" said Jeanette keeping him on his stomach. Brittany then returned with the ice.

"Alright Simon, I want you to keep still for me, I'm going to put some ice on your back. It'll help reduce the pain" said Brittany.

Alvin was then holding Simon's paw and just looked at him feeling like it's his fault. Jeanette knelt at Simon's other side and kept an eye on him making sure he doesn't try and move. Then after 20 minutes, Brittany then removed the ice from Simon's back, and then she helped him sit up.

"How are you feeling now Simon?" Jeanette asked her brother-in-law.

"A little bit better, but I think I need to rest. Can you help me to my bed?" Simon said. Alvin, Brittany, and Jeanette nodded and helped Simon to his feet and helped him over to his bed.

"Okay Simon, now you get plenty of rest, we'll be back and check on you in a little while" said Alvin.

Simon nodded and the three then left him to rest. When Alvin, Brittany, and Jeanette then arrived back downstairs, Dave then wondered where they went.

"Where did you three go? Where's Simon?" Dave asked.

"Simon's not good at the moment Dave. He did his back in, so we've left him to rest and sleep. Best not to disturb him at the moment" said Jeanette. Theodore and Eleanor then heard what happened to Simon and hoped he was going to be okay.

"Okay guys, we'll have to be quiet and not wake him up. Otherwise it won't do any good for his back" said Alvin. Everyone agreed and watched TV at the right volume so Simon couldn't hear.

But then half an hour later when everyone was then out like a light, a masked man entered through the window where the Chipmunks sleep. He had gasoline and matches and had evil intentions. He saw Simon was asleep and removed his mask, and it happened to be Ian. He then crept through the room and shut the door. Ian then got to the stairs and started to pour the gasoline outside the door and then by the stairs by the front door, and then near the living room.

Ian then took out some matches and lit one up. He then threw it onto the gasoline and the fire then started. He then put his mask back on and left. Then the fire then started to spread up the stairs and then near where Simon was still asleep. Then the smoke of the fire caused the alarm to go off. Everyone was then awake and saw flames around the living room and then screamed.

"Oh my gosh, fire!" Alvin screamed.

"Quick, everyone get out the front door!" Dave yelled. Everyone then started to cough from the smoke while getting out the burning house. Once everyone was out, Dave then called for the fire brigade. They looked around and saw someone was missing.

"Where's Simon?" said Brittany. Everyone then looked at what was now left of their house. All five Chipmunks's eyes then widened and their mouths open.

"Oh no, Simon's still in their!" Jeanette screamed.

"Simon!" Alvin yelled. He then ran to the house and everyone was then in shock.

And a cliffhanger. Sorry if this chapter was really short, but more chapters of this will come. So Simon is still in the blaze, will Alvin get him out in time? Or will their lives going to end tragically? Find out next time.
