CGI Movie Version
Lament
The next morning, Alvin got up first before Jeanette and Brittany. Alvin was a little confused. The sun had been up for almost an hour and Brittany wasn't awake. Alvin then shrugged it off.
"She needs her rest after what she's been through lately." he said to himself.
He went and took his bath then he got dressed. He then went over to the small box that contained his and Brittany's pups. Alvin smiled.
"I can't believe I'm a father." he thought.
The pups were still asleep. Alvin then went over to Brittany who was still sleeping on the bed. Alvin laid next to her and rubbed her arm.
"Psst! Hey Britt. It's time to wake up. You can stop dreaming about me cause I'm here." he said sweetly.
Brittany didn't wake up.
"Britt, come on. Wake up. I just finished taking a bath, but if you wake up right now, I'll take another bath with you, but this time, I'll let you wash me. I know you like to do that."
Still Brittany didn't wake up.
"Britt? Britt, come on! Wake up! Britt!"
Alvin gently shook Brittany. Now he was starting to get worried.
"Britt wake up! Brittany!"
Jeanette woke up.
"Alvin what's going on?" she asked.
"Britt's not waking up!" said Alvin.
Jeanette crawled over to Brittany and gently shook her.
"Britt wake up!"
Brittany still didn't wake up. Jeanette placed her paws over Brittany's chest. She was trying to feel her heartbeat. Unfortunately, no heartbeat was felt. Tears started coming from Alvin and Jeanette's eyes. Jeanette laid her head on Brittany's chest with her ear over Brittany's heart. No heartbeat was heard. Jeanette sat back up and both her and Alvin started to cry.
"She's...dead." said Jeanette sadly.
"No!" shouted Alvin.
He went over to Brittany and held her in his arms.
"Brittany please, you can't leave me! You can't leave us! Britt, we have a family, don't leave now!"
"Alvin, Brittany's gone. She's been gone."
"But how are we supposed to take care of the pups? Without their mother, they won't survive! And me. What am I going to do now? Brittany is the love of my life. Now, that's she's gone, I don't know what to do." said Alvin.
"She would want you to raise the pups. After all, they are your children too. You must become the father that they will have in their life. And I will help you. I know that Brittany would want the best for them."
"Your right. But Brittany, the love of my life, is gone. Gone and I'll never see her again."
"I know. She's my big sister. Believe it or not, I actually looked up to her. But like you said. She's gone and I'll never see her again."
Both Jeanette and Alvin cried really hard over Brittany. They continued to cry for the next hour. After they couldn't cry anymore, they began to prepare themselves to go back to L.A.
"I will have to quit my job, and stop our lease here." said Alvin.
"I'm going to call Jayden. He'll be able to help us." said Jeanette.
"But he'll also be devastated when he finds out about Brittany."
"I know. A lot of people will, but we can't do this by ourselves. Alvin, you might want to feed the pups, I think they're hungry."
"Either that or they're missing Brittany. She is the mom, or was the mom."
Jeanette sighed.
"But you Alvin, are they're father. You must step in and play the roles of a father and a mother."
Alvin nodded. Jeanette walked off to call Jayden.
"Serrator will pay for taking Brittany from me." thought Alvin.
Jeanette picked up her phone.
"Oh I hope he's not busy." said Jeanette to herself.
Luckily he wasn't.
"Hello?"
"Jayden, this is Jeanette, you know, Brittany's sister."
"Yeah, how is everything? How's Brittany?" asked Jayden.
Jeanette gulped. She really didn't want to tell him that Brittany's dead, but she has to. Everyone will eventually find out if she doesn't. Jeanette hesitated to answer.
"Hello? Jeanette? Is everything alright?" asked Jayden.
Jeanette started to breathe a little heavily.
"Jeanette, speak to me. What's going on? Is everything alright?" Jayden asked again.
Finally, Jeanette managed to speak.
"No Jayden. Everything is not okay. I need you here in Flagstaff now!" she said.
"Why? Is something wrong?"
"Yes! Something is wrong! And it has to do with Brittany." said Jeanette.
And she hanged up before Jayden could say anything. Mia came up to Jayden.
"Jayden, is everything alright?" she asked.
Jayden looked at her.
"I don't know. But we need to get to Flagstaff now." he said.
"Okay, then let's go." said Mia.
Back with Alvin and Jeanette, they got their things all packed in their backpacks. Alvin put Brittany's things in her backpack.
"Okay, we're all packed. Now what?" asked Alvin.
"We wait. Hopefully Jayden will come." said Jeanette.
"Jeanette?"
"Yeah?"
"What are we going to do with Brittany? We can't leave her here."
"No we can't. I was thinking we could take her back to L.A and give her the proper burial she deserves."
Sadness was still in Jeanette and Alvin. Sadness that will never go away. About two hours later, Jayden and Mia arrived. Jayden knocked on the door and Jeanette answered. She and Alvin started to cry a little.
"Jeanette, Alvin, what's wrong?" asked Jayden.
"Come inside." said Jeanette.
She opened the open the door more so Jayden and Mia could walk in then she closed it.
"Jeanette, what's going on? Where's Brittany?" asked Jayden.
"You could say...she's in a better place." said Jeanette.
Both she and Alvin cried even more.
"She's right there on the bed." said Alvin.
Jayden walked over to Brittany.
"Britt?"
Jeanette jumped onto the bed.
"She's dead Jayden."
Jayden's eyes widen.
"No, no, no she couldn't be."
Now both he and Mia started to cry.
"How? How did she die?" asked Mia.
"A Nighlok attacked us. And Britt took a hit for me. She saved my life. But she lost hers." said Alvin sadly.
Jayden picked Brittany up and held her in his arms. Tears were running down his cheek.
"Britt..."
That was all Jayden could say before he started crying really hard. Mia started to cry as well. A little bit later, Jayden was able to pull himself together. But he was still sad.
"Well, now you're going to have to come with me back to L.A." said Jayden.
"Yes, we know. And we already have everything packed. We're ready to go." said Jeanette.
"But we need to do two things before we go. First we need to go the grocery store across the street. I need to tell the manager that I can't work there anymore. I need to get my paycheck and then we need to stop at the office here so we can pay our stay here." said Alvin.
"Okay. Then let's go. Go ahead and grab your backpacks and Brittany's. I'll carry Brittany and Mia, can you carry that box that's holding the pups?" asked Jayden.
"Sure." said Mia.
They grabbed everything and left the room. Then Jayden took out his Samuraizer and drew the symbol for a car. The symbol became a red compact car. Jayden and Mia opened the doors so Alvin and Jeanette could get in. They got in the backseat and Mia put the box holding the pups next to Jeanette. Then Jayden placed Brittany in Alvin's arms. More tears came from Alvin as he held Brittany. Jeanette got close to Alvin and laid her head on his shoulder. Then Jayden and Mia closed the doors and they got in the front. Jayden drove to the store and parked in the parking lot.
"I will go in alone." said Alvin.
He put Brittany in Jeanette's arms and left the car and walked in the store. About a half hour later he came back with his money that he earned. Then they went back to the motel and went to the office. Alvin paid for the stay and then they left and Jayden drove on the freeway back to L.A.
"So you're going to drive us back to L.A?" asked Alvin.
"Yeah, we need to think of how we're going to tell your family." said Jayden.
"Yeah. And we have plenty of time too. The rate we're going at, we'll be home in eight hours." said Jeanette.
She was looking at her phone. Then she put it away and opened her backpack and took out some small berries and fed it to the pups. Later about five hours later, they left Arizona and was back in California. They were now only a few hours away from L.A. Alvin was sleeping. He was dreaming of the happy times he had with Brittany. Especially the time they were at the beach and they had sex for the first time. And the other times they had sex. And the times when they took a bath together, they would always make out in the bathtub. Alvin would always dry Brittany off and Brittany would dry Alvin off. And they would kiss each other like there was no tomorrow right on the floor. And he also dreamed about the time when they first arrived in Flagstaff, and Brittany's golden fur shined beautifully in the sun. And her beautiful blue eyes. That was Alvin's most favorite thing to see. But now, that's something he will never see again. Her beautiful blue eyes. And her smile. Her smile was another great thing about her.

"We're going to be alright Alvin. We'll get through this." said Jeanette quietly.
"Yeah. I don't think Brittany would want us to be sad all the time. I think she would want us to be happy and enjoy our lives." said Alvin quietly.
"I think so too."
Alvin kissed Jeanette on the cheek and went back to where he was sitting before and laid down. Later around 7:30 pm, it was dark out. They arrived at the Seville house. Jayden parked the car in the drive way and turned it off. Jayden sighed.
"Well. You're home." he said.
Jayden really didn't know what to say. He knows that the whole family will be devastated like he, Mia, Alvin and Jeanette was.
"Yeah, it still looks the same." said Alvin.
"It hasn't changed a bit." said Jeanette.
Jayden got out of the car and so did Mia.
"Let's do this." said Jayden.
Alvin and Jeanette grabbed their backpacks and left the car. Mia grabbed the box with the pups inside and Jayden carried Brittany and her backpack and closed the door. Then they walked up to the front door.
"I've been thinking, I think you and Jeanette should go in first Alvin. Then Mia and I will come in next." said Jayden.
"Okay." said Alvin.
Jayden rang the doorbell then he and Mia hid behind the wall. Dave answered the door and was shocked to what he saw.
"Alvin? Jeanette? You're really here."
"Hi Dave." said Alvin and Jeanette together.
"Dave looked around.
"Where's Brittany?" he asked worriedly.
"That's the thing." said Alvin sadly.
"What's wrong. Is she still gone?" asked Dave.
"Well you could say she's gone, yeah." said Jeanette sadly.
Dave kneeled down to them.
"What's going on? What happened? Where's Brittany?" he asked.
"She's right here. Along with some others." said Jayden.
He and Mia came out of the shadows. Dave stood back up and looked at Jayden as he walked up to him. Dave noticed Brittany in Jayden's hands.
"Dave, I'm really sorry. But she's...no longer with us."
And just like what happened to Jayden earlier, Dave's eye widened, then tears started to come from his eyes.
"Brittany's...dead?" asked Dave.
"I'm really sorry." said Jayden.
Jayden put Brittany into Dave's hands. Dave started crying.
"No. This can't be. How did she die? What happened?"
"She died after saving Alvin's life." said Mia.
She walked up to him and showed Dave the box that contained the three little pups. Dave cried even more.
"How am I going to tell the others?" he asked.
He then looked at Alvin and Jeanette, who were also crying.
"Guys, recently I have felt so bad for how I treated Brittany. If only I hadn't kicked her out. Now she died knowing that I hated her. But I really don't. I overreacted. I feel really bad."
"Brittany was a forgiving girl. I'm sure she would've forgiven you." said Jeanette.
"Yeah but now, we'll never know." said Dave. "Everyone, come inside. We better tell everyone else."
Everyone followed Dave inside the house. Simon, Theodore and Eleanor was in the living room. Simon saw Dave.
"Who was that?" asked Simon.
"It was us." said Alvin.
Alvin and Jeanette walked up to them. Simon, Theodore and Eleanor were excited to see them.
"Alvin, Jeanette. We missed you so much." said Eleanor.
"We sure did." said Theodore.
"Where have you been? And where's Brittany?" asked Simon.
Alvin and Jeanette sighed.
"She's...in a better place." said Jeanette.
"What?" asked Eleanor.
"What do you mean?" asked Simon.
Then Dave walked in with Brittany in his hands. He then laid her on the floor. Simon, Theodore and Eleanor gasped. They ran over to her. Simon immediately noticed that Brittany wasn't breathing. He and Theodore and Eleanor started to cry.
"She's...dead." said Simon.
"I'm really sorry." said Jayden.
Jayden and Mia walked up to them. Mia kneeled down to them showing them the box that had the pups in them.
"But Brittany gave birth to three babies." said Mia.
Simon managed to smile but it didn't last long. He started crying again. Eleanor hugged Brittany and cried really hard..
"How did she die?" asked Simon.
"She died by saving Alvin's life. She died in her sleep." said Dave.
Everyone had tears in their eyes.
Jayden turned to Dave.
"Mia and I are going to go. I know this will be a difficult time for all of us. If you need anything, let me know." said Jayden.
Jayden handed Dave a piece of paper with his phone number written on it.
"Thank you Jayden, I will." said Dave.
Jayden and Mia left the house and returned back to the Shiba house.
"Well, I can't believe I'm saying this, but we're going to have to start making funeral plans." said Dave.
"Indeed. Brittany needs to be buried. That way, she'll be completely at rest." said Jeanette.
Later that night, everyone had a hard time going to sleep. Especially Alvin. It had been a long time since he slept in his bed by himself. Eventually everyone got to sleep, but it took awhile. The next morning Dave was already up calling different cemeteries around the city. He found one that was perfect. Also it wasn't too expensive either. He later went to the cemetery by himself to purchase a plot for Brittany's burial. Dave later set up Brittany's body to be transported to a funeral home. That was hard for everyone. They didn't want to see Brittany go but they knew it was the right thing to do. Throughout the day he made lots of phone calls. By the end of the day, Brittany's funeral was set. The chipmunks and chipettes were in the living room doing nothing but just sitting on the couch. Dave walked in and sat in a chair.
"Well, everything is set. The funeral is next weekend." said Dave.
Fast forwarding to the next weekend, Brittany's funeral was held in a small church and it began at 10:00 am. It was a small funeral. The only people that were there was Dave, Alvin, Simon, Theodore, Jeanette, Eleanor, Jayden, the other rangers and a few other people who directed the funeral. It was a sad day for all of them. It was a nice funeral. There were pink flowers everywhere and candles lit. Everyone shared their memories and said their goodbyes. Alvin looked at Brittany. She was laying in her coffin. She looked beautiful as always. She was wearing a pink dress with a pink flower by her right ear. Later she was buried by a tall tree.
"We must not allow our anger over the loss of Brittany to overcome us." said Dave.
Alvin walked up to Brittany's grave. He put the first flower over it.
"Alvin." said Dave.
"If Britt's gone, standing around here sulking won't bring her back. So unless anyone minds, I think I'll be alone for awhile." said Alvin.
He then ran out of the cemetery. Alvin ran to the ocean. He then walked onto a pier. The same pier he and Brittany was at. Alvin looked into the ocean.
"Britt, I love you. I will always love you. You will always be in my heart. I will miss you. But know this, since we have three kids now, I promise, I will be the best father to them. I will do everything I can to keep them safe. I will be a great father. I promise." he said as he looked at the ocean.
