Hey bros! How is it goin'?
I'm here with the next chapter and I was having fun with writing it. So I hope you'll enjoy it.
And I'm sorry for my usual errors. I always try to correct them but now, here's at 0:46AM in Hungary and I'm sleepy. I wanted to update the chapter as fast as possible so I didn't give a nut to the errors.
Eleanor woke up and get out of her bed.
Everybody was still sleeping in the beds peacefully.
She wasn't an I-don't-want-to-wake-up girl, but she didn't like the sun when it burnt out her eyes after waking up.
Fortunately Eleanor just had to move her index finger and the rays of the sun left her alone.
She dressed and walked down to the kitchen to have some breakfast.
The students were sitting at the school and dying to boredom. Fortunately Eleanor and nobody else didn't have to go to school. However, Kimi and Klaus hadn't taken them to that secret, super cool place.
The light green clad chipette reached the kitchen and opened the fridge. She took out a prepared glass of milk and some cookies, left from the dinner.
Still with buffering brain, she walked inside the living room and knowing that Dave was still sleeping, she sat on the couch to eat her breakfast.
As she was chewing a piece of cookie, her ears twitched and heard a weird sound.
She looked slightly left and saw a big, orange-black-white fur. The fur's owner was masculine, scary and wild.
And it was standing a half meter from Eleanor.
It was a Siberian tiger, eating a big slice of row meat.
Eleanor was on screaming for help, but a paw covered her mouth. She started burning the paw with laser; she got free, but as she wanted to scream, she realized the person who had stopped her.
"Kimi? What are y- What is that tiger doing here?"
Kimi looked at the huge animal. "It's not a tiger. It's Klaus."
Eleanor dropped her jaw and tried to find a logical way to explain the happenings. "HOW?"
"Listen, this is Klaus's ability. He can create holographic bodies for himself. This is his favourite and he eats a breakfast in this form every morning."
The chubby chipette was panting lightly.
She had to process the fact that… Klaus could change bodies… or whatever.
"When were you going to tell us?" she asked angrily.
Kimi sat down, next to Eleanor and talked to her with calm voice. "Listen, Klaus's ability is too complicated. We have to keep it in secret until we get to the place when we mentioned."
Eleanor sighed. It was more than enough for her. She ate her pre-breakfast and did a morning-walk around the house. – Since Lucas and Nicolas started training them she had always done a walk around the house. –
During her walk, she was practicing. She tried to develop something signature. She tried to from her ability to her own, personal way.
It's obvious, that she wanted to change the laser's colour to light green. Also she was on creating an aura, similar to Luc's.
Eleanor, - like her sister, Jeanette. – became more determinate since she had powers. When Alvin bullied the chubby chipette, she fought back and grounded him.
It didn't mean Alvin didn't bully him a bit, but he honoured Eleanor more than before.
Finishing the morning walk, Eleanor went up to their common room and checked the others.
Everybody was still sleeping.
Stepping into Chrystal, Rob and Shannon's room she saw Shannon was cuddled up to her father and she covered herself with Chrystal's tail.
Eleanor let out a sigh and turned back, toward the kitchen.
But she bumped into Klaus on her way.
"Klaus… " Eleanor didn't know what to say, because she was still mixed up by the information about Klaus's ability.
"Hey, it's okay Eleanor. Just don't tell the others, okay?"
Eleanor stammered a 'yes' and went down, to make breakfast for the others with Dave.
Two hours later everybody got up, went down to the kitchen and had breakfast.
As they were eating at the kitchen table Kimi was deep inside his thoughts.
He was thinking about the moving.
"Kimi! Earth calls Kimi Järvinen. Respond!" called out Simon.
Kimi just looked up and searched for the caller. Simon waved to him. "Here I am. I just wanted to ask what are you thinking about?"
Kimi taped at his crag. "Well… I think we should talk about it after breakfast."
The Finnish 'munk was surprised when Rob's daughter spoke up giggling. "Then you should start eating your food. Everybody has already eaten it."
Nobody wanted to offend Kimi, but Shannon inherited her sense of humour from Rob. What she said was funny.
The chipmunks couldn't help and laughed at Kimi.
He frowned at everybody and grouched.
Klaus stepped to his friends and calmed him down.
"Hey Mr. Stockholm, don't be upset. We're just pulling your leg."
Kimi gave a wide eyed look to Klaus. "Yeah. I'm laughing, ain't I?" asked Kimi sarcastically.
Ignoring the northern chipmunks' talk, Nicolas stood up, stretched and waved to Eleanor with a wink. "You should be a chef, Eleanor. I'm serious." He said and ran up to his room. Theodore gave a simple peck on his counterpart's cheek and followed Nicolas.
The green clad chipette blushed under her fur and giggled.
Also, the others were a bit angry at Nicolas, because he had made them realized, they didn't complimented Eleanor's cooking.
Lucas sneaked away, Alvin Jumped with Klaus and Kimi, Luc and Ashley teleported.
Simon flew away as fast as he could. Only Brittany, Rob, Chrystal, Shannon and the northern chipmunks left there.
They looked at each other, than looked into Eleanor's angry eyes.
The chubby chipette's eyes had been scarier since she got powers.
She started charging a ball of laser energy, but Rob took her paw and looked into her eyes calmingly. "Ellie, I admit, we were jerks and didn't say anything to your hard and perfect work. But now I'm saying, you're the master of the feeding of bastards like us."
Eleanor watched Rob with angry sight for a while then she switched look; back to her usual, kind face.
"I forgive. But just because your talk is sweet." She said and after a peck on Rob's cheek she went to wash dishes.
Rob turned back, toward the others and held up his thumb.
Brittany looked at Rob with questioning face. "How did you calm her down?"
Rob winked at his wife and laughed. "You know Brit, I've made mistakes during my life with Chrystal. Every time I made a mistake, she was mad at me and I had to fight for her forgiveness. I have experience."
Brittany nodded, hiding her disappoint, and walked up to the upper level.
Chrystal patted Rob's back and wrapped her tail around his waist. "Good boy."
Kimi and Klaus were sitting in the cockpit, in their plane.
They had checked the systems of the vehicle for the next taking off.
Also, Klaus had said he needed some rest, so they had come here.
The blonde furred chipmunks pushed his head against the window of the cockpit and panted. Kimi didn't say anything; he knew what was going on inside his friend's system.
"It's going to get worse." muttered Klaus.
Kimi stood up, stepped to Klaus and placed his index finger on his neck.
"Your pulse is normal, but your jugular artery is near to blowing up."
Klaus whipped the sweat drops off of his forehead. "What's that?"
Kimi sighed and crouched next to Klaus. "You know, I think you'd need nanobots from Rob. Those are small enough to stabilize your DNA."
Klaus tried to wake up, but he collapsed.
Kimi caught him and helped to stand up.
"BB, ask Rob to help you. I'm sure he will."
Klaus just shook his head and tried to catch for air. "They can't know my state. What would they think about me?"
"They wouldn't think anything. It's not your fault, that…"
Klaus raised his paw; Kimi stopped talking.
The blonde furred chipmunk (with Kimi's help) walked to a drawer in the plain and opened it.
He took out a small, black box with a chipmunk words on the top of it.
Klaus opened the box and brought out a special needle. He put it on his wrist and injected something into his veins.
"It was the last." said Klaus with emotional pressure in his voice. "you have a month to find something out."
Kimi was on saying something, but they heard knocking and the head of the auburn furred genius showed up in the door.
"Am I disturbing?" he asked seeing Klaus leant on a console.
Kimi stepped away from Klaus, who breathed in and straightened. "No. Not at all. Just… I drank too much yesterday and… you know."
Rob bent his head left. "You didn't look hangover at the breakfast."
Kimi saved his friend's cover. "He bears the affections of the alcohol, but still… Klaus isn't Bud Spencer."
Rob stared at the northern 'munks, but he didn't want to get into their mysterious businesses, so he rather didn't say anything.
"Okay. Never mind. I came to you, Kimi. I'd like to talk to you."
Kimi looked at Klaus who nodded. – His system was recovering temporarily from his sickness. – Kimi and Rob went out and walked to the back of the plain.
"So Rob, what do you want to talk about?" Rob smiled and poked the Finnish one's sunglasses. "About these. You said you didn't see colours because of the sunglasses. Then how did you know who is who about my description?"
Rob thought he had caught the bluish-grey furred 'munk, but he didn't. Kimi just smiled determinately.
"Rob, you know the colours, because your parents taught them to you. I re-learnt them after I had had to start wearing these. I see the colour just like you, but if you saw what I see, you wouldn't recognize the colors."
Rob was impressed, moreover, he admired Kimi. He had a totally different point of view about the world and he was still happy. He learnt to live with the disadvantages of his ability. It was… wise.
"I didn't disappoint in Finland." Said Rob.
He wanted to walk back into the house, but Kimi stopped him. "Rob, I'd ask you a question too."
Rob turned back with questioning look. "Go ahead."
Kimi looked around under the plain and bent close to Rob.
"What do you know about the electro-chemistry?"
"Quite a lot. Would've I been able to control the nanobots if I didn't know anything about it? "
Kimi just patted Rob's shoulder and without a word, he walked back, into the house.
Rob blinked and wasn't able to find out what had just happened.
So he just followed Kimi and on a different way, he went back to his room.
Standing in the door of the plain, Klaus saw as Rob had left the place.
He closed the door and went to the back of the vehicle. There was a little laboratory and an MRI-like machine. He activated the scanners and lay into the machine.
The sensors picked up every each information about his body and converted them into 1s and 0s.
The main processor of the plain analyzed them and put the results on a screen. When the whole procedure was finished, Klaus had already been waiting for them.
Only one data cared Klaus and he found it on the right side of the screen.
'Cell degradation: 28.8%'
He breathed in and pushing a virtual button he deleted the results and the fact of the examination from the computer.
This number (28.8%) meant one thing.
Klaus Ødebårg had a half year left from his life; the energy output of his cells was falling faster then he had expected.
"Klaus, you've made it." he said and with a happy smile on his face, he left the vehicle.

All of the team members sat in Kimi's room. They came here to talk about what Kimi had been thinking about at the breakfast.
Kimi said, the Chipmunks and the Chipettes should disappear with the knowledge of the world. It mean, that somehow they should made the world think: Alvin and the others are in danger.
If they were in danger, the government would try to take them to a safe house or protect the house.
That was what Kimi had been thinking about.
"So you say, we should have a reason to disappear, right?" asked Simon and took his chin.
Kimi nodded.
"What if you simply kidnapped us?" suggested Alvin.
Klaus shook his head. "No. The whole Interpol would start searching for you."
Simon spoke up: "Blackmail?"
Kimi laughed and almost fell off of his chair. "You always get blackmails, don't you? It would be just one from the many. And the main result would be the same."
"Attack them!" said Rob jumping up.
Kimi gave a confused face. Rob calmed down and began to explain. "If a little group of mysterious chipmunks attacked the guys, it would be double strike. The government would try to protect the Alvin's. Also the suspicion wouldn't be on them. How would've they attacked themselves?"
Kimi had only one thought: "Brilliant."
Klaus calmly raised his paw. "How and where?"
Good questions? They had to count with Brittany, who couldn't protect herself, becauae she didn't have any powers. Also they couldn't attack the Seville house, because it would've been too direct.
Another silence came. Everybody was thinking about a good solution.
Even Alvin was thinking. He knew he was the member of the team so he had to be in the planning and the actions. Somehow, he felt, he had to be responsible for the team.
As this thought ran through his mind, he shivered. Ot was too different from his personality. It was too serious. It was too Simon-like.
Alvin knew what kind of personality he had. He clearly knew he was the troublemaker, not the mature one. That's undeniable.
And the shockwave of the realization hit his brain. -
Undeniable. Song. Singing. Concerts. That's it. - He went through this thought and he thought it was perfect.
"Guys, I got it." He said standing up instantly.
Nobody looked at with serious face.
Alvin saw it and switched his face to peevish. "I'm offended. Don't you think I have good ideas?"
The group shook heads.
Alvin shrugged and ignored the distrust.
"Okay. Here's the thing: we're gonna have a concert in Phoenix next week. Attack us there and show yourselves. If people see the attacker, they won't suspect us. "
Alvin had pleased expression on his face. Proudly he looked at the group.
- Finally I did something. -
But the next thing what Klaus said, broke Alvin's happiness down.
"Thanks, Alvin. We'll call you back."
Everybody laughed; Alvin sat back, between Brittany and Rob. The pink clad chipette fondled her counterpart's back with her tail, calming him.
Rob had another thought and raised his paw.
"Hey. Alvin is totally right. His idea is perfect."
"Really?!" Gasped everybody, even Alvin who couldn't believe his idea was good.
"Yes. Of they are attacked, they will be taken home and the Police will surround the house. Nobody will expect, they're the part of our team."
Klaus crossed his arms and looking downward, he spoke up. "Rob, when you arrived, the fact that you and your family stepped into the United States, were registered. They know you're here. What about you?"
Before another silence could come, Kimi spoke up.
"Rob can sing, can't he? Sing with the guys."
It wasn't bad idea. Rob could sing, Chrystal could sing. Even Shannon could sing. So if the Courtis family sang with the Sevilles, (And nobody knows about the others.) they will get under of the suspicion.
"Still, where will we get weapons?" asked Klaus and he got uncomfortable looks from the others.
"What?"
Kimi poked his head. "We have a plain outside, smart guy."
Klaus took Kimi's head and poked his head with it. "But it hasn't weapons. We didn't install them."
Rob stood up and poked Klaus again. "You can fly back to Finland and install them, can't you?"
Klaus tapped at his hurt head and groaned. "Okay. Stop poking me. We'll fly back, but we need a good plan before."
Rob cracked his paws. "No problem."
18:28, Taurus Stadium, Phoenix, Arizona. 17/09/2016.
The Chipmunks and the Chipettes were preparing for the concert.
They were going to perform three songs; the concert wasn't going to be more than fifteen minutes. It was just a simple concert. Nothing extra was planned to happen.
Alvin was harmonizing in front of his mirror and tried to set his hair.
Simon was watching him from behind with crossed arms.
"Alvin, you won't use your ability, will you?"
The red clad just shook his head and continued the preparing.
Simon walked out their balcony and looked up the sky.
The stars were shining on the black table of the universe.
The warm, humid wind blew the stinky grey air of Phoenix.
Simon sniffed from the air and he knew it was going to rain.
An ambulance car, with blue lights and siren, passed by the stadium. Simon followed it until it turned left and a building covered it.
Somebody stepped behind the blue clad and took his shoulder. The spectacled chipmunk turned and Jeanette stood behind him. She wore a long, ordinary dress and no make up. Only her hair was a bit more set up.
"Jean, you look… great."
The purple clad wasn't the queen of the shyness anymore. She bent and smiled at Simon. "Thanks, Si. You look handsome."
Simon looked at himself. He wore a black jacket with blue stripes and a white T-shirt under it.
"Brain 'Munks, the show is starting in five minutes. Let's do this!" Alvin's voice came from the dressing-room's hall.
Simon placed his paw on Jeanette's hip and he kept it there until they reached the place, under the stage.
Simon went to his guitar, threw the strap on his left shoulder and checked if the guitar is connected.
Alvin did the same; Theodore as well.
Rob didn't get musical instrument, because he hadn't wanted. Shannon was with Chrystal and the girls.
The girls did a sound-probe on their microphones.
The night was a bit cold and the stadium's roof was opened.
The crowd's noise was clearly audible; the stage's metal floor and all the frameworks didn't soften it at all. Nay, it intensified it.
"Remember guys, no panic when the action starts." Said Alvin and everybody nodded.
She didn't see it, but when Alvin said his words, he looked at Brittany with a hidden sight.
A man voice yelled form the speakers; then the machines under the chipmunks started working and lifted the whole floor under them, up to the stage.
Lights and loud noise hit the chipmunks' senses. It was the place where they had been born. It was the place where the really lived. They stood on the stage.
Alvin turned his headset on.
"Hey Phoenix! We're ready! What about you?" He yelled out his question and the crowd answered in union, with a loud 'yes.
Alvin played some warm-up chords and then they started.
Simon and Alvin started the song with guitars and meanwhile Alvin harmonized.
The song was known by everyone.
We liked our lives the way it was
We didn't want to share our spotlight with no-one
And when we looked at you all we could see
Was the enemy couldn't let you get bigger, better
We had a dream it was everything
You beat us there, oh how hated on you three
And when we looked at you, all that we saw
Was everything we ever wanted, ever dreamed
It doesn't matter if you grew up together
Or fought forever, no
All that you need is someone
You love with all of you heart, yeah
Meantime in the airspace of Phoenix, a one-sided conversation was in progress between a vehicle and the control tower.
The officer was trying to make contact with an unidentified vehicle.
F-A-M-I-L-Y
Get together now and keep it tight
F-A-M-I-L-Y
'Cause you know they'll never leave your side
You need your brothers now
We'll never let you down
We'll be here by your side
Forever 'til the end of times
You need your sisters too
There's nothing we won't do
For anyone of you
Forever 'til the end of times
[Unidentified vehicle, altitude: 295 feet speed: 180mph; this is Phoenix control tower. Respond! Identify yourself! ]
The pilots of the unidentified vehicle ignored the calls from the control tower and started lessening the altitude.
It doesn't matter if you grew up together
Or fought forever, no
All that you need is someone
You love with all of your heart, yeah
F-A-M-I-L-Y
Get together now and keep it tight
F-A-M-I-L-Y
'Cause you know they'll never leave your side
Sister from another mister
Brother from another mother
No, I wasn't brought up with her
But we're gonna love each other
Sister from another mister
Brother from another mother
No, I wasn't brought up with her
But we're gonna love each other
Doesn't matter if you share DNA
Well you're together everyday
Doesn't matter if your folks are the same
It's what's in your heart that may turn away
[Unidentified vehicle, if you don't leave the airspace immediately, I'll have to make you. Respond or leave the airspace immediately]
The pilots still didn't respond and still ignored what the officer said.
All I want, all that I need (All that I want)
Is to rock with my family (Family)
All I want, all that I need (All that I need)
I got here with my family
F-A-M-I-L-Y
Get together now and keep it tight
F-A-M-I-L-Y
'Cause you know they'll never leave your side(3x)
The vehicle slowed down and poised over the stadium.
It waited for the last line of the song.
The second officer's finger clicked a button on the dashboard and activated the subsystems.
Please, don't worry
It's in your heart!
The pilots in the dark cockpit looked at each other and nodded. The pilot pushed the joystick at his left paw and bent the nose of the plain down.
Then he pushed the accelerator forward and the vehicle started to slope into the stadium.
All of the sudden, the reflectors of the 2 meters long vehicle were turned on and the people saw, it was poising right in front of the stage, in about 5 meters altitude.
Without a word, the second officer in the cockpit pulled the trigger on his joystick. From the four laser launcher, many and many rays started shooting toward the 9 chipmunks on the stage.
They jumped away in the moment they saw the vehicle.
But after the laser launchers started firing, two rockets left their tubes and impacted into the stage with huge and loud explosion. The orange cloud diffused the parts of the stage. Black dust flew upward and spread in the stadium. The hot, dark dust of the explosion covered the stage and nobody saw anything but the lasers, shooting permanently.
From nowhere another, thicker laser ray appeared and bumped into the burning stage.
The guards fired on the surprisingly small vehicle, but the bullets glanced from a mysterious force field.
A machinegun fired from the right side of the vehicle making the guards hide.
The lasers stopped and two other rockets were launched.
Then two tubes showed up on the top of the plain. They started burning and buzzing and two huge energy charges hit the stage.
The vehicle stayed there for a while, and then with unexpected speed, it disappeared in the dark night.
The crowd was escaping from the stadium in panic.
The screen on the stage tore down and fell down, with a loud crack.
Nobody believed the Chipmunks and the Chipettes had survived this.
Ambulance cars, fire engines and police cars were approaching. The staff was trying to search for the chipmunks or… at least their corpses.
Dave was searching for them too. His face was in panic, he sweated.
Then under a piece of wall, a chipmunk climbed out. He was Rob. He pulled out Chrystal. They were followed by Alvin and Brittany, then Simon and Jeanette and finally Theodore and Eleanor.
All of the chipmunks' furs were dirty, they had minor injuries. Some wounds on their bodies were bleeding, but they were alive.
An ambulance car took them to a hospital. There they were examined, the doctors cleaned and closed the wounds and gave them analgesics and sent them home.
Neither of the chipmunks spoke; they were shocked. It's natural. Somebody had wanted to kill them.
A police car took them home and for policemen protected the house.
After everybody had a shower or bath, and everybody calmed down, the family sat on the couch.
There was silence for a while. Then Rob spoke up.
"We survived it. Who liked the plan?"
Alvin and Chrystal raised their paw with smile.
Shannon arrived from the upstairs and jumping into Rob's arms she said 'yes' too.
"You liked it, because you were teleported away in the moment of the attack." Said Brittany very quietly.
"By the way, you were fast, Alvin. Congratulation!" said Rob and patted Alvin's back. "Thanks. Anyway, who was the smart, with the third laser?"
Eleanor giggled and raised her paw. "I thought if they had more weapons, the seriousness of the whole thing would be better."
Eleanor's words were followed by surprised silence.
"Well, despite, that Kimi and Klaus overplayed their part, I'm satisfied with the reaction." Said Simon and accidentally placed his paw on Jeanette's thigh instead of his. But Jeanette didn't protest. The others didn't say anything either.
Luc and Ash arrived and Luc turned the TV on with his powers. The News was on.
"Look guys. It worked."
In the TV a woman was talking about the incident.
"Tonight, at 18:40, the Taurus Stadium in Phoenix was attacked by an unknown vehicle. The witnesses say the vehicle was very small and probably it was flown by chipmunks. Also, the weapons of the vehicle were way more developed than human technology. Some people say the vehicle was an alien probe…"
Rob turned the TV off and smiled.
In the next day the leader of the local FBI office came to the Sevilles and told them they would be under watch until they didn't find the attackers.
After he left, two, black Hummers parked in front of the house and eight agents got out. They surrounded the house. – Good. –
The chipmunks started packing and preparing to move to the place what Klaus and Kimi had been talking about.
At 11:05 AM Luc arrived and he brought Klaus with teleportation.
"Well, here we go. The place is ready to serve you. Luc and Ashley have already seen it." He said and seeing the wide smile on Luc's face, he put a same expression on his.
"Guys, that place is more than cool. You MUST see it." said Luc.
Alvin appeared next of Klaus. "Then go!"
Klaus gently pushed Alvin away. "Alvin, be polite. Ladies first."
The girls stepped next to Luc, took each other's paws and they were teleported to the place.
A few seconds later, Luc arrived back. He teleported the boys and the luggage.
After the teleportation, Alvin opened his eyes. The red clad chipmunk's eyes were hit by the view.
They stood in a big room and looked out a huge window.
Wonderful, colorful, fished were swimming right in front of the window.
Also, an amazing coral reef made the view more beautiful, about a mile from the place where they were.
Looking up, the white disk of the sun was visible.
It was clear: They were under the sea.
Jeanette was hypnotized by the view and she spoke up. "It's beautiful. Klaus, where are we?"
Before Klaus could answer, Kimi arrived and answered instead of him.
"Well, Jeanette, we're 28 meters under the Atlantic Ocean."
Klaus waved. "Come on, guys. We gotta go. It's just the first floor."
Kimi and Klaus led the others to a lift. The door closed behind them and they started going deeper and deeper in the ocean.
The chipmunks' ears started popping because of the pressure and it hurt a bit. But Klaus calmed them down, saying that the pressure is going to be normal on the lower levels.
When the lift finally stopped, a huge room was revealed.
There wasn't any window. The walls were covered by screens.
Kimi and Klaus stopped.
"Okay. So, Brittany, Jeanette, Eleanor, Ashely and Luc are going with Kimi. He is gonna show you they cabins. The rest of the group is coming with me" said Klaus and turned toward the left corridor.
The girls followed Kimi. After two turns, they arrived to the cabins. Everybody got an own cabin, except for Ashley and Luc of course.
Stepping in the room, Jeanette found the huge screen in the wall which functioned as a window. Jeanette turned it on and she got a view from the top of the ocean.
Brittany just threw her stuffs on the bed and followed them. She didn't want to be there and didn't want to be at home. She didn't want to be.
Eleanor's first realization in the cabin was the huge screen on the wall, in front of the bed.
The boys had longer way then the girls.
After he unpacked his stuffs, - on his own way, - Alvin went to explore the screen on the wall. He found out he could connect his laptop to is, so he started playing Dead Space.
Simon just sat on his bed and stared out the digital window to the land what was visible.
Theodore's number one priority was eating. He found the fridge and seeing that it was full with everything he could jump out of his fur in happiness.
The Courtis family's smallest member set upon the screen and didn't let it go.
Meantime her parents sent nanobots all over the huge base and made a map. They didn't have to ask for help.
In everybody's table was a paper with a message. They were told that there was going to be a meeting in the meeting room at 15:00.
Rob and Chrystal knew where it was, but they had to tell it to the others.
Simon and Jeanette memorized the map in no time, so Jeanette led Brittany and Eleanor to the meeting room. – Luc and Ashley knew the way of course. -
The meeting room was closed. They tried to open the door, but they couldn't.
In a minute, Kimi arrived and looking into a scanner he opened it.
Stepping in, everybody dropped jaws. On the back wall of the room was a gigantic screen. The center of the room was possessed by a table. The table was surrounded by 20, comfortable seats. Every seat had a little screen where the owner of the place could see things.
The whole place had futuristic atmosphere.
Everybody took a seat with opened mouths and wide eyes. Even Luc and Ashley because they hadn1t seen the meeting room yet.
Kimi stood in front of the screen and cleared his throat.
"Okay guys. First I just want to say: Tervetuola meidän pikku asemalle! So Welcome to our little station."
Klaus applauded sarcastically.
Kimi gave him a scary look. "So, is Klaus doesn't want to interrupt me… No? Okay. So I have to tell you a few things about this base."
He turned the screen behind him on and the figure of the base appeared.
"We're in 500 meters deep in the Atlantic Ocean. Nobody can notice us, because the station is huge only in chipmunk size. Human sonar doesn't give a… to it."
Klaus spoke up elbowing on the table.
"Anyway, they will never come even close, because they don't have reason to do."
Kimi shook his head and continued.
"We built this base in 2013 and the building took two years. So the lady is brave new. We haven't used it yet, because we didn't have occasion. You can use everything you want, but nobody can go into the main control room and the reactor room; maybe Rob and Luc."
Simon put a peevish expression on his face and turned away from Kimi, who ignored the blue clad's movement.
"So, everybody is going to get a retina identify code. If you see into the scanners they will read your retina and you can go in. We have luck, because our retina is more complex than humans, so they can't copy it."
What Kimi said sounded paradox, but it was even understandable. He had to protect what he's worked for.
"Also, here is a hangar, but you aren't allowed to take any vehicle out. Unless you can drive them, but I hardly can believe it."
It sounded egoistic and rude but he had point again. He said it for the others. They didn't want anybody to die out there.
Kimi spread his arms with a wide smile on his face.
"So, any questions?" he asked and he saw four paws in the air.
Kimi pointed to Rob.
"I just want to ask, how do you create energy?"
Klaus looked at Rob and balancing a pencil, he answered:
"Ion propulsion."
Rob had an impressed expression. He smacked with his fingers.
Simon was the next. "Why can't I go in the reactor room. I'm smart enough?"
Kimi just said they would be back to this question later.
He pointed to Luc, who almost fell out of his seat. "I'd like to know where we exactly are."
Kimi turned the picture on the screen. There was the map of the Earth on the left side and the vertical figure of the base on the right side of the screen.
"We built the base into the continental plinth of Africa."
Hearing the answer, everybody sank into deep silence. Nobody could say anything. It was too unbelievable to comment.
"Okay Alvin, it's your turn." said Kimi and he prepared himself for a very funny question.
When Alvin asked his question, the brains inside the heads weren't able to process it.
"How did you stabilize the fluctuation in the primer magnets and why don't the gamma rays mix up the magnetic field?"
Kimi almost fainted after Alvin's question. But when he saw Rob gave to him a $20 note, he relieved.
"Rob you asked Alvin to ask this question, didn't you?"
The auburn furred chipmunk shook his head. "Actually, Luc asked me to ask Alvin."
Rob and Luc brofist-ed. (A/N: Hey I'm sorry. I'm in love with English wordplays.)
Klaus spoke up again. "See Simon? That's why you aren't smart enough to go into the reactor room."
Simon grouched and turned away again.
Then Kimi said that he was going to answer all the question of the genius chipmunks' after the meeting.
He let the group go and everybody went to the cabins to have a rest.

Try to read without them.
Until the next chapter MunkyRob is out of this dimension.
