Back at Vinny's place..

"Your foot looks a little better. It seems like a light scratch.", Harry said; as he held it gently.

He then said,"Now to get a new dressing on this foot."

"You can use my apron. That mountain Lion has torn it; and it has blood stains.", replied Vinny.

Harry started to cut strips from the good portion of the apron.

Vinny fondly watched him and asked," Harold. May I call you Harry?"

While dressing her foot he smiled at her and said,"I don't mind."

She then said," You aren't from these parts; you from back East?"

"You guessed It!", Harry said as he tied the dressing.

He then said, "I'm originally from the New York-Vermont area.

That's what my brother used to tell me."

He then realized what his reason was, for seeing Vinny.

His head hung down as he finished nursing her foot.

Vinny noticed the sadness on his face and asked,"Did I say something wrong?"

" No. You are a special angel.

I am the one: who wronged my brother, fell into bad company,

and was tricked into a wrongful life.", confessed a mournful Harry.

He then said, " I was a young gullible fool.

Believing that I could get ahead by cheating others.

Now I am a old has been, who paid the price.

I was beaten, maimed,and almost killed.

No home, no friends...

I was told by your father, that you could help me look for Alfie...

My brother.. He's my only family.. "

Vinny pondered," Why does that name sound familiar?"

She asked, "How does he look like?"

Harry then handed her the snapshot picture.

Vinny said, "I'm sorry. I can't see very well.

That mountain lion made me lose my glasses.

I'll have to up to my bed chamber to get my spares."

She tried to walk; but it was difficult.

Harry said,"Here.. You can use my cane."

He then said,"Vinny is there a place to wash my stained hands?"

She answered,"Around the back is a rain barrel with a pail."

She then walked up to her chamber.

Once inside; she sat at the edge of her bed.

Putting on her glasses; she took a better look...

The face in the picture made her gasp out,"Alfred!"

She collapsed on her bed; from shock.

Outside..

"Alvin. Shouldn't we have waited for the others?", Brittany asked as she hugged his arm.

Alvin replied,"I asked Dave; to let us have the honor of telling Mom first.

On this beautiful Sunday morning!"

Vinny's tree was in sight. They went to knock; but found her door open.

"Mom!, Vinny! ", they cried out.

there was no answer.

"She doesn't usually leave the door open?", said Alvin.

The pair slowly walked in. Everything seemed normal.

They then heard someone coming.

"She must have been out back. Let's surprise her when she comes .", said Alvin.

The pair then hid behind the door.

As soon as the footsteps reached the door; the pair stepped out and said, "Good morning!"

To Harry!

Alvin felt rage and disgust.

The fraud, cheater, and dirty rat was at his mother's home.

Alvin screamed, "HARRY! What are you doing at my Mom's place?!".

Harry was in a state of shock and surprise!

Vinny was mother to: The Chipmunks!

He wanted to flee; but Dave and the others had arrived blocking his escape.

A shriek came from inside the tree.

As Dave and the others watched Harry, Alvin went inside to see Brittany crying.

"What is wrong?", he asked

She then pointed to the floor.

There was a knife, Vinny's torn up apron, and a blood soaked handkerchief!

Alvin's mind visioned a horrible sight!

He then heard Dave call out ,"What happened?"

Alvin came out with his mom's torn up, blood stained, apron.

They gasped at the sight of it. Then all eyes turned to Harry.

While cowering on the ground, Harry said," I didn't do nothing!"

"I had enough of your lies!", cried an angry Alvin.

He then grabbed a broomstick to beat Harry with.

When Alvin tried to swing it; it suddenly got heavy.

Dave then saw Vinny step out of her home.

It was Brittany' scream that made her come to consciousness.

She had hooked the broomstick with Harry's cane and stopped Alvin's attack!

Vinny's voice cried out,"Alvin!.. Don't you DARE hurt Harold!"

The surprised boys rushed to their mother and hugged her.

They said, "Mom! We thought you were.."

Vinny looked at them and said, "Dead!..

I would have been...; if it wasn't for Harold.

He saved me from a mountain lion, nursed me, and gave me comfort."

Vinny then said, "I think it's only fair; that you take Harold to his brother!"

She then handed Simon a map.

Vinny walked over to Harry. She handed him his snapshot, and said,

"The last time I spoke with Alfred; he said to give you this key to his old home.

There he left you a letter with instructions were to find him."


Harry is close to his goal... Will he like what he discovers?
