REVIEW AFTER READING!
Jeanette couldn't believe what happened to her the past 12 hours. 12 hours ago, she was a prisoner in a Vexo Containment Base, waiting to be …processed. The next thing she knows, there's a squad of Resistance Fighters, led by this incredible handsome Chipmunks, named Simon Seville and he rescues her. She wakes up in the US Resistance headquarters, meet the three leaders of the US Resistance, which one of them is her rescuer, Simon. And then she finds out that his brothers, the other two leaders of the Resistance, Alvin and Theodore, have rescued her sisters. This and more went through her mind as she hugged her sisters, who she thought she had lost.
Jeanette released her sisters from the reunion-hug. "How? When? Where?" she rambled.
"Calm down, Jeanette." Simon said, placing a hand on her shoulder, before turning to his brothers. "Those are questions I also want to know."
"Well, it all began after we parted from HQ and went to our separate locations." The Resistance Leader with the mechanical right arm, Alvin Seville began. "I arrived with my squad, and began working on a plan. Unfortunately, one of my men I had sent out to scout the area was discovered by an Aerial Vexo, who set off the alarm. Immediately the Vexo's in the base had started…" He gulped. "… the Emergency Disposal Protocol."
Simon showed a face of pure disgust and Theodore turned pale.
"W-w-what does that mean?" Brittany asked.
"The Vexo's use Emergency Disposal Protocol to make sure that, when one of their facilities is invaded, we don't get a hold on their schematics, weapons or other stuff that could help us." Simon began, still disgusted. "It means that all weapons and schematics and all samples that they have for study are destroyed and that all subjects that still need to be studied are …made useless."
"Meaning?" Brittany asked. "What subjects?"
"Humans." Theodore said.
"When we had invaded the base, the Vexo's had already burned down several rooms." Alvin continued. "I heard people screaming, but I couldn't do anything. Their suffering had ended."
"So you mean that …" Brittany said. "That Vexo that entered my room, during that screaming, was about to ..?"
Alvin nodded. Brittany wobbled on her feet, Alvin ran towards her and caught her before she fell. "Easy, princess." Alvin said.
"So she was the only one you could save?" Simon asked. Alvin nodded. "What about you, Theo." Simon asked his other brother.
"My mission went a little better. We arrived at the spot, infiltrated the base, and started searching for survivors, before we got caught." Theodore said. "But all the rooms were empty, except the one miss …Eleanor, was it? …was in."
Eleanor blushed. "We can't thank you enough for our rescue, or for bringing us together again." She said, holding her sisters hands. "What are the changes that three brothers rescue three sisters on the same day?"
"Coincidence." Simon said.
"Or fate." Alvin said, winking at Brittany, who blushed.
Simon checked his wrist communicator. "I see that we are scheduled for routine medical examination." Simon said. "And I see that the girls still haven't got their medical check-up yet. Let's bring them with us."
"W-what a-are you going to do?" Brittany asked.
"Nothing to worry about, Princess." Alvin said. "Standard procedure. After each mission we need a medical check-up. The same thing happens with rescued survivors. Everyone you see had one at least once or twice."
"The lady in charge there is a real nice lady." Theodore said. "You'll like her."
Eleanor gave Theodore a long look as they walked. How can someone who had bravely ripped the head of a Vexodrone, be such a sweet young men and look so innocent at the same time? She was …intrigued by him.
Brittany was also deep in thoughts as they walked to the medical room. She wondered what had happened to her rescuer's arm that the entire thing had to be replaced by that hunk of machinery. It looked three times as big as his other arm and could rip the door of a cage without a problem. It seemed frightening at the time, but she had noticed how …tender his touch was, how caring his eyes were as he checked her for injuring in the helicopter.
Jeanette couldn't keep her eyes off Simon, who was busy talking to his brothers. She wondered what kind of a man he was. He was obviously a soldier, but the lab coat he was currently wearing suggested otherwise. And for a soldier he had a warmth and kindness in his voice that she never heard before. She felt …strange around him. Like the girls in those stories they used to tell to pass the frightening hours. Could it be …love? She had felt love before, only for her sisters. But this was another kind of love. Before today, she never had time for love or consider falling in love. She was too busy surviving or taking care for her sisters, even thou she was just the middle child. She decided to try figuring it out later, because they arrived at the medical station.
Simon knocked the door. "Miss Miller, we're ready for our medical examination."
"C'mon in, dears." A voice said.
The sisters look at each other. They knew a Miss Miller from the underground village they lived in. She had took care for them when they were young, together with a bunch of other kids. But six years ago, she had gone out to scavenge some stuff for the kids, but she never returned. Probably caught by the Vexo's, everyone thought. This had to be a different Miss Miller. It couldn't be …
"MISS MILLER!" The three sisters yelled as the door opened and they saw the woman. It WAS her. But she didn't recognize them. It HAS been four years.
"Yes?" Miss Miller asked.
"Miss Miller, don't you recognize us?" Eleanor asked. "The kids you took care of in the underground city of San Francisco?"
Miss Miller squinted her eyes, giving the girls a good look. Her eyes sprang open. "Brittany? Jeanette? Eleanor?" Tears welled up in the old lady's eyes. "Is that really you."
"It is, Miss Miller." Jeanette said, hugging Miss Miller. Her sisters quickly joined her.
"Well, this turns out to be a great day of reunions." Alvin said. "But it'll have to wait, Miss Miller. My arm really is starting to hurt."
"Off course, Alvin." Miss Miller said, wiping some tears out of her eyes. "Duty calls. Sit down Alvin. You two too, Simon and Theodore. And no complaining, Theo."
The sisters giggled. Miss Miller hadn't changed a bit.
Miss Miller took a kit from the shelve and walked over to Alvin. She looked at the mechanical arm and gave Alvin a stern look. "Been punching through walls again, Alvin?"
"It's just too much fun." Alvin grinned.
"Well, it's nothing serious, but I'll have to send it to repair." Miss Miller said. "That means that you won't be able to perform missions for …at least a week."
"What?" Alvin complained. "Can't those tech head work a bit faster?"
"Alvin, you know that Tech Support is currently working hard on that new EMP-mod for the guns" Simon said. "Something YOU really wanted to be a priority and …"
"Okay, okay, jeez." Alvin said, crossing his arms. "You really are starting to sound like Dave, little brother."
Miss Miller plugged a tool into the electrical grid. "Now sit still, Alvin." She placed the machine against the shoulder of the mechanical arm and loosened some joints. She then clicked some buttons on the side of the arms. A series of clicks were heard and Miss Miller removed the arm.
Brittany had suspected that his entire arm was gone, but she was surprised to see that just the underarm was missing and on the stump was something mechanical attached, probably to control the arm. Miss Miller got something of the shelve. It was another mechanical arm, but this one looked exactly like Alvin's normal arm.
"This is gonna sting, dear." Miss Miller said.
"Like it always does." Alvin said, clenching his teeth. Miss Miller pushed the arm on the mechanical device on the stump. She gave it a twist and smiled.
"There, dear." Miss Miller said. "Everything working?"
Alvin squeezed his hand a few times. "Working like a charm."
"Can you feel this?" Miss Miller asked, softly hitting the hand of the arm with a small hammer.
"Ouch. Yes." Alvin said.
"If he has an prosthetic arm that looks and acts like a normal one, why does he needs that one that is three times the normal size?" Brittany asked.
"Because you can't push through a wall if you can feel you doing it." Alvin said.
The next hour, Miss Miller checked Simon and Theodore, followed by the three girls.
"You all seem fine and in good state, maybe a bit pale." Miss Miller said. "The Vexo's didn't let you starve in there, I guess. But I guess that it was good that you got away from there."
"Talking about 'getting away', what happened four years ago?" Jeanette asked.
"Oh Dears, I got captured by one of them nasty Vexo's." Miss Miller said. "They gassed me and brought me to a containment cell far away from San Francisco. I stayed there for a day or two before I got rescued by Alvin and his brothers, who were just part a squad back then. And for his bravery in the heat of battle, Simon got promoted to replace the old Commander and on of the leaders of the US Resistance the next week. A year later he was joined by Alvin and Theodore."
"But what about you?" Brittany asked. "Why didn't you return?"
"Because I didn't remember where I used to live." Miss Miller said, with tears in the eyes. "I had forgotten all about where I lived or what my life there was. Probably from the trauma. But seeing you three again made me remember everything again."
Simon cleared his throat and turned to his brothers. "Guys, Central Command wants a report of the missions." He said. "I will send a signal, but, as usual I guess, it will take a while before they can contact us.
"If they got out of that stupid submarine and into the action, we wouldn't have to wait this long." Theodore grunted.
"Yeah, they are sitting nice and safe and we're risking our butts out there
Simon turned to Jeanette. "If you want to, I can give you a tour around HQ." Simon said. "I know a few places you gonna love."
'There's already something here I love.' Jeanette thought as she looked at Simon. "That would be great."
"Eleanor, Brittany, let us guide you to your chamber." Alvin said, linking his arm into Brittany's, who blushed. Theodore did the same with Eleanor.
"Take Jeanette with you." Simon said. He turned to her. "I'll come for you in one hour, okay?" He asked with a warm voice, which made Jeanette's heart melt.
"O-okay." She blushed.
"We'll see you at the Comm Room in a little while." Alvin said against Simon.
As his brothers and the girls left, he found himself watching Jeanette. He watched how she walked, how her eyes scanned the room, how she turned her head to give Simon a last, thankful look as the door closed. Simon shook his head, like he wanted to shake away the thought. He knew what he was feeling. It was growing since he had seen her and grew even more while he was spending time with her, even as brief as it was. He knew the feeling, but had never thought he'd experience it. Love. But could he fall in love with a girl he just met not 12 hours ago? And would she love him back? Simon shook his head again.
"Man, I need to get it together." He said to himself as he walked out the door and in the direction of the Communication Chamber. "Central Command is suspecting the reports. Duty before pleasure, as Alvin says."
He walked to the Comm Room. Various soldier saluted him as he passed by. Simon thought with amusement to the days he was a soldier like them, that he had to salute the same men that were saluting him now. He was the first soldier to have climbed up in ranks in such a sort time, followed by his brothers. All three had their reasons to be determined to fight the good fight, but neither of them had even hoped to become leaders of the US Resistance. All three possessed great leadership skills, were excellent strategists and we're willing to risk their own lives for others. Alvin was the first to experience that last thing. Part of his arm blown of during one of their missions back as rookies. They had fixed him that prosthetic arm that acted like a normal one, but Alvin also insisted for that 'War-arm', as he called it.
Theodore, as sweet as he could be, proved himself a fearless warrior in the battle against the Vexo. He didn't like it, but knew it was needed. He knew that, when it was all over, he could abandon the violent ways of the solider and have a easy, quiet life.
And Simon, well Simon. He was a good leader, a thinker, strategist, developer of weapons and more. He had proven himself a great soldier each and every time they go out to battle, but he felt more comfortable in the lab, behind his 'toys', like Alvin called them.
Simon opened the door of the Comm Room. "Has CC answered yet, Bokowski?" he asked a man behind the many computers of the room.
"No, sir." The man said. "Wait …no."
"Well, I can say that's a good thing, because my brothers aren't here yet." Simon said.
"Aren't they with you , sir?" The man asked. "That's …a first."
"For everything is a first, Bokowski" Simon said, taking a seat behind a monitor. "Any Vexo movement in Base Territory?"
"None so far sir." Bokowski said. "Some Hovers zoomed over, but, like always, the scramblers made sure they couldn't scan us."
"And let us hope that it will stay that way, Bokowski." Simon said.
Half an hour later, Alvin and Theodore arrived.
"How are the girls?" Simon asked.
"Pretty." Alvin said dreamily.
"Very pretty." Theodore said.
"Alvin, Theo." Simon said with played amusement in his voice. "Are you in love?"
"What if we are?" Alvin said.
Bokowski cleared his throat. "Sirs?"
"Yes, Bokowski?"
"Central Command has signaled green for communication."
"Establish a feed." Theodore said.
The three brothers placed themselves in front of a big screen. The screen flashed on, showing men in uniform.
"Generals." The three brothers said.
"Commanders." The general in middle said. "How was yesterday's mission? As successful as always, I hope."
"Successful, yes. As always …less." Alvin said. "…Sir."
"The three of us only succeeded in rescuing one Captured each, sir." Simon said.
The general in the middle's expression became angry. "You risked the lives of your squad, the location of your base, and you only succeeded rescuing THREE humans?"
"Chipmunks, actually …Sir." Theodore said.
"All other humans were already …processed or perished during the Vexo Emergency Disposal Protocol." Simon said.
Some of the generals became pale and started talking among each other.
"Well …" The middle general said, also a bit pale. "That changes it. You did a very good job, Commanders."
"Are they fit for battle, these men?" another general asked.
"They're girls, General." Alvin said.
The generals started talking among each other again.
The Middle General turned to the screen. "Have they been through Medical Check-up? Are they scanned?"
"Yes, Sir." Simon said. "No implants or bombs."
"We can't take the risk." An Asian General yelled.
"Sir?" Theodore asked.
"The Vexo are getting smarter, their devices more advanced." The Asian general said. "I find it suspicious. You each manage to rescue one survivor, all of them female chipmunks. Are you sure they aren't Vexo Spies?"
"Sir, you don't imply that …" Alvin said.
"Indeed I am, Commander Alvin." The Asian general said.
"There were humans who have rolled over for the Vexo's before. "A general with a French accent said. "Remember the African Resistance Base, located near Kenya?"
"That incident was quickly dealt with and they relocated before the Vexo could find them." Theodore said. "And happened four years ago. There haven't been incidents like that anymore."
"That was a small base, holding a small group of soldiers, and no civilians." The Asian general said. "You are the Central HQ of the US Resistance, holding a large army and many, many civilians."
Alvin started to lose his cool. "Do you expect us to shoot them, just to be safe?"
"not immediately, not." The General in the middle of the table said.
"General Reddick, this is ridiculous." Simon said, getting very frustrated.
"Watch that tone, Commander Seville." General Reddick said.
"Forgive me, Sir." Simon said. "But I won't allow to treat a survivor like that, without proof, as long as I am Commander of the US Resistance. If we do that we won't be better than the Vexo's we're fighting against.."
"I guess you're right, Simon." General Reddick said. "As always. The possibility of being discovered and eradicated has made all of us a bit suspicious, even about each other."
"And because of that we're going to go on shore in two days, and link up with a Resistance Group." Another general said.
"Communications with Central Command will be forbidden for a few weeks, so I suspect recorded files of Mission Reports."
"But what about the girls?" The Asian general asked. "I still don't trust it."
"He doesn't trust anything." A general whispered.
"May I give a suggestion?" Theodore said. "How about we each take a girl under our wing? That we take responsibility for them. For a certain period of time?"
The generals discussed this.
"Central Command agrees with the suggestion of Commander Theodore." General Reddick said. "In three weeks, Communication with central command will be back. By then I want to hear from you if they are friend …or foe. Central command out." The generals saluted. So did the Chipmunk brothers. The screen went out.
"Phew, I was sure that General Hakashi was going to jump out of the screen, just to shoot the girls himself ." Alvin said.
"Strangely, so did I" Simon said. "Good thinking, Theo."
"Sure, but now we need to play babysit for those girls." Theodore said. "So, what now?"
"Like the general said, we'll take each a girl under our wing." Simon said.
"You seriously don't believe that they are spies, are you?" Alvin asked.
"Off course not." Simon said. "They were checked, scanned and …my guts tell me they are good people."
"So does mine." Alvin said.
"Mine too." Theodore said. "So, who will you choose, Alvin?"
"I suggest that we each take the girl we rescued." Simon said. "So, Alvin, you watch over Brittany and Theo, you take care of Eleanor. I'll go get Jeanette." Simon turned around and walked out the chamber.
"Have fun, bro." Alvin said to his brother, very much amused.
The girls were brought to a room, built for three people, where they could calm down from the horrifying experience. Jeanette was busy talking with her sisters, about what they had experienced, how thrilled they were being reunited again and mostly about the three Seville brothers.
"Theodore is cute." Eleanor said. "I can't hardly believe that he is the same soldier that blasted his way through a army of Vexodrone Soldier, carrying me in one arm."
"And Alvin …wow." Brittany said dreamily. "I thought persons like that only existed in those old movies the Village showed once a week."
"Guess they are real." Eleanor said. She turned her attention to Jeanette, who was waiting by the door. "Jen, are you expecting someone?"
"Or Simon?" Brittany smirked.
"NO…yes." Jeanette said. "Is it that obvious?"
"You are clearly starting to love him." Brittany said.
"No …" Jeanette said. "I'm already in love with him."
"Well, we can only hope that he will love you back." Eleanor said. "As can we with 'our boys'."
"Don't be foolish." Jeanette said. "They are the three Commanders of the US resistance. They won't have time to take us under their wings."
Someone knocked the door.
"Enter." Jeanette said. She smiled brightly as she noticed that it was Simon. Brittany and Eleanor smiled as brightly as they noticed Alvin and Theodore.
"Well, eh, Commanders." Brittany said. "What are you doing here?"
"Please call us by our names." Alvin said. "You're no soldiers, but civilians."
"Okay, eh, Alvin." Brittany said, blushing a bit.
"The reason we are here, is that Central Command suspects you to be Vexo Spies." Theodore said.
"YOU DON'T SERIUOUSLY BELIEVE THAT?" Eleanor asked frightened.
"Off course not." Simon said. "But nevertheless, we have our orders, and we need to follow them."
"W-w-what are y-y-you going to do with us?" Jeanette asked.
Simon did a few steps in her direction. She backed off, but relaxed when Simon gently took her hand and placed his hand on it.
"Relax. Our orders are for us to take each of you under our wing." Simon said. "We knew you are good guys, but this will be easier for all of us."
"So, what does this mean?" Brittany asked.
"For starters, you will be relocated to a room next to ours, so you are close." Theodore said. "Next, you need to stay with us the whole day and never leave our sight."
"Furthermore, we will try to find a good place for you here." Alvin said. "if it will be civilian or military is completely in your hands."
"And when we are on a mission, you will be placed in your chamber and will only leave with an escort."
"Seems a bit unfair." Eleanor muttered.
"I know, Ellie, but our orders are given by Central Command and we can't ignore those." Theodore said.
"Besides, it will only be for a few weeks." Simon said. "After that, you can choose what you want to do for yourself …if Central Command agrees with our report that you are no risk."
"Do you girls agree?" Alvin asked.
"Seems like we don't have a choice." Brittany said. Yet, she smiled at Alvin. "But I don't mind. I would like to know you a bit better, Alvin."
"So do I, Theodore." Eleanor said. Theodore began to blush slightly. Eleanor giggled.
"How about you, Jeanette?" Simon asked the Chipette. She nodded, blushing a bit.
"Well, let's begin, shall we." Simon said, holding his arm out. "There is a place you'll love."
Simon and Jeanette had walked around for an hour. Simon had showed her the Civilian Sector, filled with houses for families, places for children to play and even a school.
"How can it be that there is so many room here?" Jeanette asked. "This looks more like a small city than a Resistance Base."
"well, all Resistance Bases are like this." Simon said. "And you are right about the small city. We are located underneath a destroyed city, somewhere the Vexo's hardly ever come anymore. From here, we can get everywhere."
"It must've been years before everything was set." Jeanette said.
"The base has been completely operational for six years." Simon said. "Nine years it took for the completion for the base. Here we are."
They stood in front of a dual metal door. Simon typed a code on the keypad next to the door.
"What inside?" Jeanette asked. She suspected weaponry and more military stuff.
"Our sacrest room." Simon said as he opened the door. "The nature Dome."
Jeanette gasped when she saw the room. It was a giant park, filled with grass, trees, flowers, a lake and more. Jeanette got tears in her eyes. She'd never seen such beauty.
"H-h-how …?"
"This is the reason it took so long for the completion of the base." Simon said, walking Jeanette into the grass. Jeanette kicked of her ragged shoes and closed her eyes as they touched the grass. She looked up and saw a giant glass dome, showing a blue sky and the sun.
"This …this is impossible." Jeanette said. "I thought we were underground?"
"We are." Simon said. "Machines create artificial sunlight, create rain and wind and filter the outside air. It's like being outside, but …inside."
"It's …it's beautiful." Jeanette said, her eyes filled with tears. She threw her arms around Simon's neck and, in the heat of the moment, planted her lips on Simon's. After a second she backed off, realizing what she did.
"I-I-I-I'm s-s-s-sorry." She stuttered.
Simon, a bit dazzled by the kiss, smiled. "don't be." He said.
They walked over to one of the trees and sat down. For ten minutes, they enjoyed the view.
"C-can I confess something?" Jeanette asked.
"Off Course." Simon said.
"You were my first kiss." She said, blushing fiercely. She expected him to react in many ways, but not that he would wrap his arm around her waist and pull her closer.
"So were you." Simon said, gazing in her eyes. "In all my years, I never thought I'd meet someone as beautiful as you and yet …here you are."
This caused Jeanette to blush even more. She didn't expect this to happen so soon. She giggled nervously, not knowing what to do. "W-what are you trying to say, Simon?"
"I think I'm trying to say …that I love you." Simon said.
Jeanette gasped and quickly said. "I love you too." She slapped her hand against her mouth, like she had said something dirty. "Did I blurt that out?"
"You did." Simon said calmly. "And how does it feel?"
Jeanette thought about it for a second. "It felt right." She said. "like it was meant to happen."
They both leaned over and let their lips touch each other. Simon wrapped his arms around Jeanette and pulled her closer. Jeanette deepened the kiss.
As the hours passed, the new coupled learned as much as they could, before Simon brought her back to her room.
"I see you tomorrow?" Jeanette asked.
"I have no choice." Simon said with a smile. "I have my orders."
Jeanette saluted, as a joke. "Yes, Sir."
"Good night, Jen." Simon said, kissing her on the cheek.
"Good night, Simon" Jeanette answered, blushing furiously
As soon as the door closed, Jeanette rushed to her sisters to tell them the news. And it seemed that they had similar news as well.
this sure is a long chapter. I hope they will all stay this long.
