Purging the Injustice - An Alvin and the Chipmunks Fanfic
Written by: Tal 'Narf' H.
Kudos to Felicity Wynter for some help with the groundwork and beta reading.

Alright, just like my last story, I digress. The Chipmunks, Chipettes, David Seville and Miss Miller are not my characters. They belong to Bagdasarian productions. However, all of the other characters that are written in this story I've created and developed for the most part myself, with the exception of the doctor from the last story. Felicity came up with the idea, however I expanded on the character a little bit.

For all of you corporate swines that may be stalking upon my story, be aware also that I wrote this story, as well as the prequel and any following installments, just for kicks and giggles just to waste my time productively and entertain people. I did not in any way shape or form do this for profit. Therefore, I am not doing anything illegal, being as this is a free fanfic. And with that, get your own damn story!

Also, please be warned that this (if it isn't clear enough) story is in fact a sequel. So for those who haven't read my first story (The Unlikely Hero), you probably won't be able to see the entire picture I've painted. So if you wish to get a better feel for the storyline, I highly recommend you read the first story. If you don't remember the story and would like to touch up, you might want to do that as well. I'm going to wait a couple of days before I start releasing anything further than the prologue for those who wish to do so.

Author's Preface

Hello once again! Yes I realize it's been a while, but I haven't forgotten about here, and I finally have that sequel that I've been trying to get done for a little over a year. I apologize for the delays, but it was for the best. I scrapped three story ideas in favor for this one, and this one flows much smoother than all of the previous ideas. So hopefully, the wait wasn't all for naught.

And I know I was going to write a few little fun things on the side. I've had a bunch of problems come up over the last year, so when things finally settled in, I decided that it was for the best to pour all my focus into one story. At least I have that seldom read Christmas fic! XD

Okay, enough rambling. Just like the predecessor, this story does have songs to it. In fact, there's more than the last one, but how I'll be carrying about with the songs is pretty much the same as last time. I'll provide links to the songs on my Author's profile (although they will be in the form of a play list this time so that you can bookmark it for later use), the songs are more of a music video like feel, and if you're a slow reader, you might want to read ahead first without the music so that it all gets pieced together properly. I have a more detailed description about how it works in the prologue of Unlikely Hero if you need clarification.

One thing I might want to mention before you start reading, is that the story is actually quite dark. It's much different than Unlikely Hero was, where although there were some instances of peril, it was more circumstantial than deliberate. This story is actually much heavier and darker, and so I ask you to take the 'T' rating with a grain of salt.

See, I've seen darker and more detailed in terms of violence in some stories with a 'T' rating to it, so that's where the bias comes from. Plus, in this day and age I think that most thirteen year olds can handle what I wrote by now. There's a few instances of violence and a fair amount of foul language. I will say though, this story is borderline mature. I'm pretty sure that it doesn't cross that line; it's not excessive. However I know it's flirting rather close. If you absolutely strongly feel that I should upgrade, please let me know through reviews. That's the whole reason why I encourage reviews, because feedback can be crucial. I honestly don't think it will be a problem though.

Anyways, with all necessary disclaimers aside, I think you might enjoy the change in narration to say the least. I realized when I started writing the fourth story that I had the wrong one telling Unlikely Hero the whole time. This time, I have the one that should have been telling the story in the first place.

Thanks for your time and enjoy the rather short prologue for now! :)

Prologue: Up the Down Stairways

The gentle, or maybe not-so gentle irony about life: while one may be having the time of their life, getting somewhere with themselves and be full of progress and insight; someone else may have one of the worst lives imaginable.

Yep, that's life for you.

This is a story about three separate families. While two families lives are starting to spiral out of control, one family is living life to the fullest extent. Two parallel to each other, while one is completely unknown. And eventually, all three paths will come together with explosive and life altering results. Stories of heroism and tragedy, life and death, and unimaginable strength combine to make a story that could perhaps even make the most stone faced reporter show a little emotion.

...but who cares about reporters anyways? I digress though.

Me? Hell, that's easy. My life was great before the insanity started. I won a contest that my big brother randomly decided to enter me into, and now for some reason, I'm living in the comforts of a brand new home near said contest givers.

See, I won this supposed 'One weeklong visit to the world famous child musicians, The Chipmunks!' and wasn't sure how to take it. It sounded like a good way to make a couple of new friends, non-humans for that matter, and then I'd come home and go back to usual old boring-land, better known as reality.

The moment I got there though, things got real crazy. I had to stop Theodore (or Teddy as I like to call him at times) from getting killed by some prick who shouldn't have been driving in the first place. Next thing I know, I've turned into the next media sensation and I live across the street from Teddy and his brothers and I'm living the high life, complete with new friends and a more prosperous outlook for my family.

But looks can very well be deceiving you see. There's a delicate balance in everything. Something easily gained can just as easily be lost. In the beginning of June life was rather awesome, even if I do say so myself. I mean, sure, my brother was trying to 'drill the stupid out of me' as I'm going to blatantly misquote it, just because I broke a car window. Whoopdie-doo. But really, my life couldn't be any better.

I started off with just Tal and mom, and occasionally Tal's friends if I was entitled to come along. Now I had six new friends that are roughly my age, Tal landed a great new job in the music business, and I had all these cool new things to do and look forward to. None of the old relying on chat rooms for mediocre entertainment. Not anymore!

If this was earlier in the summer, the insanity I was referring to probably would have been just exclusively how the Seville brothers had been acting in late June. I mean, at first, they were just like what I've read about; Alvin was a fun loving but mischievous little brat, Simon was wiser than almost anyone I ever met, and Theodore was an irresistible and absolute sweetheart. But some things began to change with them, make a change that began to snowball into more and more conflicts.

But if I was saying that the boys acting out of character was all there was to the story, I would just be pretentious. I know occasionally one will get into scrapes into life, whatever, it can't be controlled. But there was somebody else I met over the summer, somebody who constantly challenged not only my perceptions on reality, but everyone surrounding me. And as soon as that happened...well I'll let you figure that one out for yourself.

And there you have it. Granted it was rather short, I assure you that all of the chapters are longer than this. What do you think? You interested? Feel free to leave reviews! I didn't write this just for myself you know.

I will see you guys in a few days when I feel that everyone has been given enough time to catch up on Unlikely Hero! (If necessary, of course.)
