Okay here is chapter 2. Sorry for the long wait but I have a good reason. I had to help a friend move for about a week and when that was done Kingdom Hearts: Birth by sleep was out and I've been playing that since it came out but I beat it now so we're good. Anyway I digress enjoy chapter 2 and tell me what you think.

All three Chipmunks were awake at the same time for the first time in days. Theodore was rummaging through the trunk and getting everything packed for their trip into the woods.

Simon was checking the G.P.S to make sure that all the maps were up to date. Alvin stood on the edge of the woods looking into them almost as if he was trying to see past them. Alvin let out a sigh and turned to his brothers, "So are we ready to go? Is everything packed?" Simon touched the screen of the G.P.S a few more times then nodded, "All set for navigation." Theodore poked his head up from the trunk, "We're all set plenty of food and water,clean and dry cloths and first aid supplys", Theodore placed three rather large back packs on the ground and closed the trunk.

Alvin took a deep breath, "Don't worry girls we're going to find you", Alvin walked back over to the car and picked up his pack, placing it on his back. Simon followed suit and so did Theodore. "Okay they have been out here for just under a week so we need to work fast." Alvin put his hand out so it hovered in the air between them. Simon and Theodore did the same so that their hands were all touching. Alvin started to give a pep speech, " My brothers, remember the Hawaiian word for family, ohana, it has a deeper meaning then just family though it also means no one gets left behind, no one gets forgotten."

The chipmunks all lifted their hands to the sky and cheered,

Theodore paused for a moment, "Ohana? Did you get that from Lilo and Stich?"

Alvin chuckled lightly, "So what if I did, it was still a good speech." Theodore smiled at his brother and laughed, "It was."

"Okay Simon how far are we from the estimated crash site?", Alvin asked, not waiting for a answer before setting out into the woods. Simon checked the G.P.S as he walked along side his brothers, "Well it looks like we're about five miles. It should take us about an hour to reach it." Alvin smiled, "Good."

The first five minutes of their hike went by rather quick and quietly. Theodore was mostly keeping his eyes on the ground beneath them, "Guys...", Theodore looked up at his brothers but kept walking at a steady pace. "Whats up?", Alvin asked. "Well what if we find them and... their not okay?" Theodore had been thinking about this the whole way across the country but this was the first time he had mentioned it.

"They will be alright when we find them, don't worry Teddy", Alvin smiled reassuringly.

"When we find them what are we going to do?", Theodore asked wanting to go over the plan once more. Simon piped up to remind him," Well first we see to it that they are able to travel out of the woods with us. And if they are to week to make the trip from hunger then we take care of them until they are able to", Simon nodded mostly to himself once he finished his explanation.

About half an hour later they came up to a deep gorge in the ground with a river running along the bottom.

"Well this could slow us down quite a bit unless we can find a way over it", Simon checked the G.P.S as he spoke looking to see where the closest way over was. "Well it looks like there is a way around this but it will take us about two miles of course."

"No need we can go over here", Alvin was pointing at a fallen tree that he was already walking towards

"That does not look safe", Simon observed as he hurried to catch up to his brother.

"We don't have time for safe", Alvin retorted as he started sizing up the log

Simon opened his mouth to protest but was cut off by Theodore, "Hes right Simon we have to hurry."

Simon let out a sigh and nodded. He made his way over to the log and kneeled next to it. Simon gently nudged it to make sure it was stable, "Okay we're going to have to go over it one at a time." Alvin nodded and started across it not wasting and time. He reached the other side and waved back to his brothers. Simon took a deep breath and slowly made his way across with out incident.

Now it was Theodore's turn he stood at the edge looking down. It wasn't to far of a walk, I can do this... Its for Ellie. Theodore slowly steeped out onto the log and began to make his way across. He started to lose his balance and almost fell but he manged to regain his composure and press on. When Theodore reached the other side he had not realized that he had been holding his breath the whole time.

Theodore took a moment to breath as Simon was checking the G.P.S. Theodore stood with his back to the crevice he couldn't stand to look at it any more.

By the time Theodore felt the ground beneath his feet giving way it was to late to react. Theodore began to fall over the edge, Simon being the closest reacted on instinct and with out thinking about it dropped the small device in his hand as he thru one hand out to Theodore and the other behind him for Alvin to grab. The small thing bounced down the side of the crevice. Alvin had his feet firmly planted on the ground as his heals began to dig into the ground from the added weight of his two brothers hanging over the edge. Theodore looked up at his brother who had caught the strap of his backpack. Simon had one foot on the edge while his other was dangling over the edge.

"Alvin! Pull us up!", Simon yelled in a strained voice. "I'm trying!", it was taking all of Alvin's strength to keep his brothers from falling. Theodore took the sight in looking up at his straining brothers, he felt Simon's grip on him slip. Theodore took a deep breath, "There is no way you can pull us up Alvin..." "Theo! Don't talk like that",Alvin yelled as his arms were starting to burn with pain. Theodore slowly reached up to the clasp that was holding the arm straps of his backpack together. Simon's began to well up with tears as he shook his head and mouthed No. "Save her", Theodore's voice was barely a whisper.

Theodore released the clasp and Alvin and Simon were both flung back onto the ledge, Theodore's back back still in Simon's hand.

It took Alvin a few seconds to register what had just happened. He sprang to his feet and quickly rushed to the edge and looked over searching for some sigh that his brother was still alive,"Theodore!", Alvin called out. There was not sigh of his brother not even a small glimpse of green.

Alvin fell back onto his rear as he soaked in what had just happened. Simon scooted over to his brother and hugged him.

What? Noooooo! Why Teddy? Why?
