You guys know what I just realized? This story is maybe breaking the national record of Finland in the category: Most reviews on a story written by a finn on FanFiction! That's a category really nobody knows of but hey! it's still a record!

Also, everyone who answered the question got it right but as I told you, it was easy if you have time but ask it and tell the one who answers to reply instantly and look at their faces! struggling! They will eventually answer right, (maybe) but at least you can tell them they failed because they were too slow.

Unstoppable

Dave's POV

"Alvin... Alvin... Aaalllvviiinnnnnn..." I said waving my hand in front of his face but he seemed badly spaced out and I could actually understand him perfectly. It must be awful knowing your girlfriend has just been kidnapped but even though this as nothing like Alvin. Usually he would be all WE'LL GO RESCUE HER, but now he just sat there quietly. Not even Simon could get him moving. He just sat there, gazing into emptiness.

"Alvin, waffles!" Theodore tried but that, like everything else, had no effect.

I saw Jeanette sighing deeply and take a step closer to Alvin, placing her paw on his shoulder. "Alvin, I know you hear me and to be honest, I heard everything you said to Brittany last night bfore the 'party'. She wanted you to be strong if something happened to her and now that something has happened, you just sit there!" she almsot exclaimed and finally Alvin reacted. He slowly turned his head towards Jeanette, some tears rolling down from his eyes. "I know what I promised but... It's just... what if they hurt her because of me. Even if I tried to rescue her, wouldn't they just hurt her? huh?"

Everyone went silent. This was one of the moments when the only one could reply to him was Brittany and she wasn't here but we had to do our best.

"Alvin, I know how you feel but..."

"NO YOU DON'T! Your girlfriend, Claire has never been kidnapped has she!"

"Claire's not my..." I started but I saw everyone else shoot daggers at me. It was no time for arguing. "Anyway, I mean I can only imagine how you feel and it must be terrible so you must let us help you! let me see that list." I said and Simon handed the list with terms. "Ransom, that's easy, they only ask for 50.000 dollars, we have that because of your carreer... check, check, check... we can do them all except..."

"Except what?" Simon asked

"Except that the kidnapper wants you to go back with your old manager Ian. He explains he liked the 'old' style better but I have no clue where Ian is right now and I'm somehow sure you are not willing to do it."

Simon glimpsed at Alvin and then me. "I'll do it, for Alvin's sake."

"And I'll do it for Brittany" Jeanette said grabbing Simon's paw, making him smile

"I-I... I'll do it too if that's what get's Brittany safe" Eleanor said and now everyone only looked at Theo and Alvin. Theodore looked very nervous and Alvin looked, well, blank.

"I-I'm in if Ellie is" Theo finally stuttered and Eleanor rushed to him, pulling him in an embrace and for Theo's surprise, quickly kissed him on the lips and as he pulled off, she whispered him something that sounded like: That's for helping to save my sister.

As cute as the sight was, it still didn't change the fact that we were dealing with way more serious issues than their grown bond.

Now everyone's eyes turned to Alvin who seemed to be thinking, no troubling in his mind but eventually after a small wait, he replied.

"No"

"Alvin say what!" Everyone shouted with their jaws at the floor including myself

"I said I won't do it"

"But Alvin, it's your girlfriend and our sister!" Eleanor said in a panicing tone, rushing towards Alvin but he stopped her, standing up and rubbing his red eyes, not crying anymore.

"I know all that. It's just that I thought what Jeanette said. I ned to remain strong and it would be weakness if we just surrender to their terms right after they're laid upon us. It's wrong for Brittany." He said sounding very mature and convincing. Actually it was the first time he sounded THAT mature. I wonder how love changes men...

"Alvin that's just stupid! There's a very high chance well make it through this by no other harm done." Simon said in his usual matter-of-fact tone which made him seem like he was always right.

"Simon, don't you see? The guy doesn't want those ransom, he didn't even tell the location to bring them! He want's something else and we have to find out what. Also we don't know who he is."

"Well umm...aah...you know...okay then, this is hard to tell but Alvin's right. We can't just do stuff like this without further investigation." Simon said and again everyone's gazes turned to Alvin. "now what?"

"Why do you look at me? I don't know anything!"

"But you're the one who started this topic of rescuing her" I said calmly and this time everyone turned their heads to me. It is rather confusing when everyone turns their heads to anyone who's talking.

"Yea but I don't know HOW are we going to do it. It's too confusing."

"What about we start by finding out the kidnapper's identity" Simon suggested and gained a round of nods around him

"And how are we supposed to do that?" Alvin yelled as the heads turned again like in a tennis match.

"Well, we could start by asking if Jessica has seen her. I mean, Brittany was heading there after all" Jeanette joined in.

"Ahh, finally some good ideas! Okay, we'll call her, Alvin, get the phone"

With that final sentence the atmosphere suddenly changed from depressed to excited. If it wasn't for kidnapping Brittany, it could have felt like being Sherlock Holmes.

Alvin wasted no time bringing the phone and dialing Jessica's number for the second time that morning. The phone didn't even beep once when it was answered by a peppy girl's voice.

"Wello"

"Umm... Who are we speaking with?"

"It's Danielle. I'm speaking on a pwone Mommy"

"What?"

"Bwat?"

"Uh, could you just give the phone to your mother"

"*silence and footsteps* Mrs. Grand speaking"

"Umm, we're so sorry, it appears we called to the wrong number"

"Oh, it's fine. Bye"

"Bye"

beep...beep...beep...

Alvin ended the call as quickly as he passed the awkward situation. "Umm, sorry. I guess I'm just a little nervous and I put the number slightly off." he said and dialed the number once again, this time Jeanette was checking that it went right.

beep...beep...beep

"Jessica, once again, on the phone"

"Hi Jess, mind if I call you that? anyway, I have one more super important question, you see, Brittany is kidnapped and..."

"WHAT? She's been... But how? Sorry Al, I'm gonna faint *Crash!*

Awkward slience filled the room as we waited for Jessica to recover and soon we heard her voice again, this time on the verge of breaking

"A-are you s-sure Alvin. This isn't a prank right?"

"No Jess, this is not a prank. Brittany has ben kidnapped and we need you to tell if you saw anything suspicious last night. Like some guy or maybe you heard something unordinary."

"Yea well, anything to help Brittany. Yes, I did actually see something a bit suspicious. It was this guy dresed in some kind of costume standing near our mailbox so I went outside to ask him if he was alright and he just replied he was trying to catch a wild cat or something. I thought it was really weird because I haven't seen those in our neighbourhood but then i thought maybe one had slipped in and went inside without asking any more questions."

"Did you see what he looked like?"

"Umm... well, I didn't quite pay attention because he clearly wasn't my type and he definitely was an adult. About 5 inches taller than your father, that Dave guy so pretty long. Quite long blonde hair which looked like it hadn't been washed for like, ages and umm... I can't really tell anything about his face. No beard, no mustache, no nothing and I definitely didn't see his eyes."

"What about his clothing?"

"Well, it looked like some kind of odd costume but I assumed it was his workwear but hey, an interesting detail. I saw the name pad, it said Brian"

"Brian... Do we know any Brian's?"

"Who are you talking with?"

"My family"

"Oh, okay"

"Anyway, thanks again Jessica, I know it's a loss to you too. We'll try our best finding her"

"I could make posters!"

"Good idea."

"Okay then, good luck!"

beep...beep...beep...

One step closer, now we know the name of the kidnapper. But who might this Brian be. The chipmunks told they've never heard of him but the chipettes seemed to be thinking twice as hard.

"Hey, I got it! Isn't one of Ryan's cousins called Brian!" Eleanor exclaimed

"I haven't heard..." Simon started but was interrupted by theodore

"I remember! It was that one party and he came to pick Ryan home. Ryan was all shouting that: Why you came here Brian, the party was just getting started and stuff."

"Yea, now that you put it that way, I remember it too" Alvin said and got a focused expression on his face. "Then there's only one possibility, it was Casey."

"Alvin, how can you be so sure?" Simon said and I just followed them with my eyes. It was Brittany we are talking about and they obviously know her and the people from school better so I suppose it's not my time to shine yet.

"I just know, I mean, she DID plan on a revenge on us. This is obviously it but I actually never thought she would go low! She knows we hate Ian so that's why it was on the term list. It all makes sense!"

THIS was my time to shine. "What about I call that Casey. I'm sure she'll do what an adult says"

"Great idea Dave! Here's the phone" Alvin said after a while of them staring at me like I'd gone nuts.

He dialed me her number and I, just in case, set it on loudspeaker so that everybody could hear.

beep...beep...beep...

"Casey speaking, if you are trying to sell anything, please close the phone within 5 seconds or my father will get you"

"Casey, it's nothing like that. I've heard you've been doing some bad stuff to my chipmunks and..."

"What! Those chickens told you! What a bunch of losers!"

"But that's not why I'm talking to you right now"

"They told yo... you what?"

"No, I'm not here to talk about that because I also heard they got their revenge BUT, Do you know anything about the kidnapping of Brittany"

"Brittany's been kidnapped? GREAT!"

"Don't play stupid with me. We've done some investigation and it all leads to you. I should call the police straight away!"

"What? I haven't done anything!"

"I told you to not play stupid with me!"

"I'm not! sheesh, honestly, if you are so obsessed with those rats then I can honestly tell my plan was to set off a fire-alarm and blaim them so they'd get expelled but if somebody came up with a great plan like this, I guess I don't have to anymore. Good luck finding her, hahahaa!"

beep...beep...beep...

"Does that mean Casey's not guilty?" Alvin asked his voice ready to break again

"Alvin, I think it does, I think it does..."

Hey, It's called phone conversations for a reason! This wasn't really one of my favorite chapters but well, it got the story forward, REVIEW!

Stupidest joke EVER!: Man went ot a store, SHOVEL! (MuHaHaHaaaa!)
