Author's Note:
Hey boys and squirrels! I realized that I've been updating really close together, I just want to say real quick that I have no idea if I'll continue to update like this so just a small warning if I don't update in a few days or don't PM any of you back, finals are next week so I'm shoving crap into my ears hoping it reaches my brain.
I don't own any of the kick-butt OCs or the Chipmunks and Chipettes, I simply use them for my own amusement (sometimes).
The only thing I do own is the plot and an Alvin plushie along with the three CGI movies.
On with the next chapter and more munkness (it's a real word, I just added to my dictionary).
Rose purses her lips, her fingers playing with a soft red rose tucked over and behind her right ear, her teeth digging into her cheek, this isn't good.
Her bright brown eyes stare intently at the posting of teams, every year teams are picked there's at least three or two (which is rare) in a team and this year is her first time, she usually just does assignments with the other Chipettes and they usually just went and spent all the money on clothes.
She's with T.J and Alexis which she guesses isn't so bad, except she kind of has a small crush on the chipmunk, but who can blame her? He's confident, handsome and a genius when it comes to bow and arrows.
Her gaze shifts to the other teams, Alice, Xander, and Cynder, then there's Eve, Skylar, and Max. Last there's Alvin and Brittany, Simon and Jeanette, and Theodore and Eleanor. Wait…..what?
She does a double take mouth falling open in surprise and joy, first off, it's really rare to only have two in a team, after all Master doesn't want them getting to close at the hip that they don't want to switch when the year is up, but then again the Seville brothers are new and the Miller sisters have been here the longest, they're also keen on assignment's they're never late when it comes to paying their bills.
Rose grins broadly, oh this was going to be fun, and she knows Brittany is stubborn when she needs to be, and Alvin is extremely stubborn, plus he's half demon, Brittany loathes demons, actually it seems she has a slight fear of them after one nearly severed her arm off. Rose's petite pink nose scrunches up at the memory sorrow quickly flashing across her face only to be replaced by a blush as a familiar shadow falls over her and his voice reaches her ears.
"We're a team," he sounds scared almost, does he hate her? Turning Rose studies T.J close and notices a faint blush tinting his cheeks but her attention is drawn away from the munk as she's tackled by a squealing fur ball known as Alexis.
"Yes! We're a team; let's make up a team name!" Alexis cheers looking ready to kick some demon butt as she releases her choker hold on Rose, "Yeah, but it can't be something corny," Rose threatens, " I agree, it has to be awesome and unique," T.J speaks up keeping his dark green eyes on Alexis for fear of catching Rose's pools of sparkling brown and end up blushing again.
"Skittles, Team Skittles!" Alice cheers behind the new team, the Chipette is running circles around an alarmed Xander and a giggling Cynder chanting the name over and over again, she reeks of sugar and coffee.
"Awesome looks like I'm with you two," Eve turns to her new partners a sly grin on her face, Skylar beams back exposing sharp canines, Max looks half asleep, they just got back from nearly a week long assignment, is a guy not allowed to sleep around here?
"We'll defiantly kick some demon butt, what do you say Max?" Skylar nudges the munk at her side jerking him awake, "I prefer peanut butter," he yelps looking around confused, "Oh we're not talking about lunch are we, sorry I just haven't gotten much sleep, I thought being back in my own bed would help," the rodent chuckles making his female partners giggle.
Simon stares up at the list studying it intently, Theodore at his side, "Oh I'm with Ellie!" the bright eyed chipmunk chirps turning and waving at said Chipette sitting on a bench beside her sisters, Eleanor returns the wave knowing from the beaming smile that she was on a team with him.
"I'm with Jeanette," Simon mutters blinking in surprise, the one with the glasses? He questions peeking quickly at the violet eyed brunette; a soft blush spreads across his cheeks when her eyes find his across the room.
"Alvin is with Brittany," Theodore whispers turning his older sibling's attention back to the paper, "That has to be a mistake, Alvin can't be paired with Brittany, do you know what could happen if he lost control," panic quickly sets inside the two brother's stomachs as said Chipette slips up beside them as if hearing her name from all the way across the room.
She doesn't say a word as her electric blue eyes scan the paper, Simon and Theodore brace for an explosion that never comes, the Chipette simply sighs heavily turns for a moment snatches an assignment from the board and turns to the two Seville brothers, they both flinch.
"Where's Alvin?" she questions calmly noting the alarmed looks in the two half breeds' eyes, "He was still sleeping," Simon answers getting a quick glance of the assignment she had snagged.
"Thanks," she turns and walks off heading in the direction of their dorm room, "She's scary," Theodore whimpers also noticing the threatening dark waves that had been spilling off her body, "She's in a bad mood, I kind of feel sorry for Alvin,"
Brittany raps her knuckles against the door waiting for a response, nothing, frowning she knocks her knuckles harder against the wood, only to have the door swing open.
Hesitating and remembering last time she slips inside and walks through the small living room/kitchen heading in the direction of the bedroom which she hasn't been in at all, poking her head in she glares at the empty beds.
Three small twin sized beds fill the room, each one adorn in different colors, the first nearest the door is a dark blue one, neatly kept and made, the second and middle bed is covered in green sheets and slightly crumpled, the last and the one closet to the windows (A/N: Alvin said he called the bed closet to the window in Chipwrecked X3) was covered in blood red sheets and they were sprawled all over the place like the owner simply rolls out and onto the floor in the morning.
The soft sound of running water draws the Chipette's electric blue gaze to the bathroom, steam rolls lazily out from beneath the crack of the closed door, the bathroom faces the foot of the three beds, a TV hangs in the far left corner opposite the beds, some clothes lay scattered around on the floor but other than that the room is spotless, two night stands are stationed between the green and blue bed, and another is between the green and red bed, each topped with a plain lamp and a book or two.
Sighing Brittany stomps her way over to the red bed and stations herself there glaring intently at the door as if it might burn into flames if she stares long and hard enough, unfortunately the only thing it does is open.
Her cheeks flame and she tries to look away but her eyes stayed glued to the markings tattooed into his board back, he turns curiously unaffected by the fact that he had just climbed out of the shower to find a chipette sitting on the end of his bed a piece of paper in her paw and her eyes locked on his body.
Raising an eyebrow Alvin slings a towel around his shoulders, "What?" he questions water dripping off the ends of his bangs.
"Oh um, I was wondering if you'd like to go on an assignment with me, I need more money," Brittany explains, Alvin crosses the short distance and takes the offered piece of paper golden eyes immediately going to the price, "6,000," he muses.
"Yeah, 3 for each of us," Brittany explains glad to have something to focus on instead of the still wet male in front of her dressed in a loose pair of boxers, "We're a team?" Alvin questions looking at the Chipette in alarm.
"I can't believe it either, no need to act so surprised, if we do a good job hopefully Master will decide we can move back to being a team with our siblings," Brittany sighs irritably, she didn't get much sleep last night, she kept having nightmares.
"I'm just surprised they'd let one of their students be paired up with a new student who's half demon," Alvin responds laying the paper beside Brittany on his bed, he takes the towel from around his neck and covers his head with it, quickly working the thick fabric through his fur trying to sop up most of the water, it annoys him.
Brittany twitches a soft blush sprinkling her cheeks barely visible through her auburn fur, chipmunks don't look like body builders but if one has enough muscle it's apparent through their fur, and Brittany can see the ones in his arms shifting and flexing as he dries his fur.
"You don't act like a demon," Brittany finally manages tearing her teenage girl mind off the shirtless munk in front of her and to the topic at hand, sure he's hot, but it's not like she's going to throw herself at his paws, he's still a demon even if he doesn't act like one.
Alvin hesitates in his ministrations Brittany is unable to see his face behind the towel, a wild mischievous smirk stretches his lips across his face; does she want him to act like a demon?
"Oh I can act like a demon if I want too," his coy soft voice strikes a chord in Brittany's chest making her heart flutter weakly, "But that'd scare you wouldn't it? I wouldn't want to scare my partner," her eyes move up to his face as he drops the towel away to dry off his torso.
Her heart nearly stops at the pain in his golden orbs, the loose and hurt that she doesn't trust him that she thinks of him only as a monster.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, it's just, just-," her mind suddenly snaps attention alerting her to the danger in front of her; the munk was using his Charm on her!
"What the heck!" she cries lurching to her hind paws cheeks flushing with color, if he kept it up she would've been feeling something stronger than remorse for her words, she would've been nothing but a pleading pup wanting to make him happy, it makes her cheeks heat up more at the thought although she's sure he would never do that.
He chuckles grinning, "Looks like you can withstand a Charm even if you don't see it coming, sorry I'm just testing you out, after all I don't know what you're immune to," he explains casually. Brittany's rage subsides, she checks quickly to make sure he's not Charming her again, when she senses no fuzzy warm air about him she relaxes knowing her anger had gone away on its own accord.
"Ok, that makes sense, so what else can you do that I should be tested for?" she questions deciding to let her new partner know that she trusts him, Alvin doesn't seem all that bad but she knows there's always going to be some challenges between them, it's in their nature.
Suddenly she's off her paws, hovering a few inches off the floor, "Hey!" she yelps eyes widening in shock, she yanks at her skirt making sure it stays in place as she's slowly placed back on the ground, "Seems like Telekinesis works," Alvin mumbles looking slightly troubled and relieved at that, "You can read minds?" Brittany asks frightened.
"I can only move things with my mind, I can't read them," he snorts making her feel stupid, he snaps his fingers and a small flame dances on the edge of his pointer finger, he holds out his other paw.
Brittany withdraws her own tucking them safely against her chest, "No way! I'm not going to let you burn me!" she snaps electric blue eyes locking with his, he frowns but snuffs it out anyways.
"Fine," he grunts golden eyes narrowed, suddenly the air around her ripples shifting and blurring together, her breath hitches as the room disappears, and she's outside, outside the city.
She stares in awe at the large city before her, stretching across the horizon, buildings looming over each other a large purple arc surrounding it, protecting it.
Grass beneath her paws draws her attention away from the horizon, lush green trees sway in the wind around her, a strange creature flutters past, it's yellow glossy keeping it airborne, "It's a butterfly," she nearly screams as Alvin steps around her holding out a finger, the delicate creature lands on his finger wings unfolding to warm in the sun, using him as a perch.
"Do they hurt?" she whispers in awe, Alvin shakes his head and turns to her holding the butterfly out to her, "No, you don't even feel them, here," he smiles softly when she refuses biting her bottom lip nervously, "Aw come on," he urges.
She timidly reaches out allowing the butterfly to inch off Alvin's finger and onto her's, she smiles as it begins to sun itself on her, it's color as bright as the huge sun above them.
Suddenly it begins to fade, melting into nothing, the beautiful world around her ripples, her breath whooshes into her aching lungs, she wasn't breathing, and she bends forward gasping and clutching her chest in shock as she returns back to the room.
Alvin stands near her eyes drained and far off, as if he too was caught up in the memories, the bright golden fire quickly returns to his eyes, he turns to her, "That's what it's like outside the city," he states calmly.
Her gaze drops to her paws, empty, "Could you take me there again?" she whispers looking up hopefully; she's always wanted to leave, to see what the world is like.
"You'll die if I do,"
What do you think? I'll try to have some action in the next chapter I swear it! Review! Review my friends!
Here's another preview! X3
He coughs trembling with the force of the blow, blood inches down his scalp trailing thickly down the edge of his cheek and down his neck vanishing beneath the color of his shirt, he groans softly and looks up his purple and blue eye, Cynder turns to him her onyx black eyes meeting his as he flatters.
"Xander stay awake!" she cries as a large fist flies down connecting with her flaming arm made of lava, Alice whimpers struggling against the rocks pinning her on either side desperate to get free and help her friends, eyes glowing with determination.
Cynder cries out in pain as the demon's other fist connects with her side sending her tumbling away, Xander grinds his teeth pressing a paw flat against the ground, the shadows around the clearing dart across the grass forming a black dome around Cynder and Alice, grinning he turns his attention to the problem at hand.
OC power!
