A/N: Hello. I thought I'd release the last chapter of the story to finally finish it up for the summer.
Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein
Chapter 8: A Smash Hit
Sometime later, not knowing that Amy and the others were on their way, which would take a few minutes at this point, Ted was already getting worried yet again.
"They've disappeared again?! No, no, no! Tell me you're joking. Mr. Seville, you're not smiling.", Ted spoke in worry just as someone as carting away a half-melting swan ice sculpture on the tray.
"Look at that!", Ted spoke in disappointment.
"Mr. Yesman, calm down. I'm sure…", Dave began only for Ted to whack his hand away and grab him by the shirt.
"I give you a second chance and this is how you repay me?! All right, then. It's no more Mr. Yesman. Your chipmunks will never eat nuts in this town again!", Ted threatened.
"Take your hands off me. You're frustrated. I understand, but do not threaten my boys. They may be late, but they're not monsters.", Dave responded.
Then, all of a sudden, there was a sudden slight panic of surprised screams and fleeing before Dave then noticed, much to his surprise, a 50 ft. tall Amy.
"Uh..., hi, Uncle Dave.", Amy greeted with a slight blush.
"Amy? Where are the boys?", Dave puzzled.
"Right here!", Alvin shouted as the giantess then showed the three chipmunks safely on top of her hand as she lowered it, allowing them to get to the ground.
"Okay. How did they make that kind of grandiose entrance?", Ted puzzled.
"I heard about people growing up so fast, but that one really takes the cake.", Dave responded.
"Yeah…, it's kind of a funny story.", Amy blushed in response.
Meanwhile, the mad doctor spotted Amy and was about to enter when the security guard stopped him.
"Out of my way! I must get in!", Dr. Frankenstein shouted, knocking the list away and going in, up until the guard pulled him away and spoke.
"You got an invitation?", the guard asked.
"No. But…", Dr. Frankenstein replied before the guard then tossed him off the set, not knowing that both Talbot and Frankie were nearby as they noticed.
"I'll have you fired for this!", Dr. Frankenstein threatened.
"You can't fire me. My uncle's a producer.", the guard responded with a smirk.
"Looks like he has that covered. At least for now. But he'll no doubt try something else to get in. we're going to need a plan to stop him long enough for the boys to make an antidote.", Talbot spoke before he and Frankie noticed a sort of wardrobe being carried over to one of the trailers.
"And I think I might know a way.", Talbot spoke.
Meanwhile, as Alvin and Theodore watched in concern, Simon turned the pages until finally, he saw the page he needed to see.
"Eureka! The antidote!", Simon spoke in joy.
"Great!", Theodore grinned.
"Finally… So, what does it need?", Alvin asked before Simon noticed a list of ingredients for said antidote, which perplexed him greatly.
"Oh, no… I have no idea where to find these ingredients. Inert Marine Ova, the lower limbs of an amphibian, bovine oral organs…", Simon spoke just as Theodore turned around and saw the buffet, which is bound to be full of exotic foods.
"Hey! The buffet table!", Theodore spoke before going over to it, getting a plate, and starting with the caviar with the frog legs next.
"Uh, Theodore, I hardly think that this is a time to be eating a snack of all times.", Alvin commented.
"No, it's the antidote! Look! Caviar, frog's legs, beef tongue. Oh, yuck.", Theodore spoke.
"By jove, I think you've figured it out, Theodore!", Alvin spoke with slight dramatics in excitement.
"Thanks. Uh, what else?", Theodore asked.
Meanwhile, Amy was looking around at the far away buildings far from the world premiere.
"Wow… The sights are just so beautiful…", Amy spoke in awe before turning to Dave, who happened to be nearby for her case.
"Oh, hey, Uncle Dave. I can see your house from here!", Amy spoke to Dave.
"I'd be shocked if you couldn't, Amy.", Dave responded before the giantess turned back to herself and started to grow amazed with how she looks now.
"I think I'm actually starting to like being a giant.", Amy grinned.
Meanwhile, the chipmunks were already mixing in most of the ingredients for the antidote.
"Now, only one more item. Gastrocata Escargota.", Simon spoke before Alvin saw what it might be referring to.
"You mean, something like that?", Alvin asked, pointing to it with Theodore turning to see what he was pointing to.
"Got it!", Theodore grinned as he saw a sort of snail shell before he then proceeded to get it only for someone to beat her to it with Theodore then speaking to her.
"Olvia de Handlotion! Oh, I loved you in 'The Sun Also Sets' and 'To Kill a Hummingbird'. Oh, and 'Lady Evil'. You should've gotten an Oscar for that one.", Theodore spoke before Olivia then gasped.
"Yes! That's what I told them!", Olivia agreed.
"You shouldn't eat that. You'll spoil your girlish figure.", Theodore spoke before Olivia saw his point.
"Oh. You're absolutely right.", Olivia spoke before she then cast aside the shell with Theodore catching it.
"Gotcha.", Theodore spoke as he got the shell and took off.
Meanwhile, as Simon was stirring the antidote, Dave walked by.
"What just happened to Amy? She just grew into a...into a...", Dave began in bafflement.
"A giant?", Simon asked.
"Exactly.", Dave responded.
"We know.", Theodore added as he added the final ingredient into the antidote.
"On the bright side, she did get us to the world premiere more quickly.", Alvin added, trying to make light of what might've been the situation just before Ted Yesman went over to Dave.
"Mr. Seville, tell me you've got everything under control.", Ted spoke in worry.
"Everything's fine. There's nothing to worry about.", Dave assured.
But of course, there was something to worry about as Amy accidentally stepped on one of the catering tents.
"Oops. Sorry, everyone!", Amy blushed.
Meanwhile, Simon just finished mixing the antidote.
"Now, all we have to do is get Amy to drink this miserable goo.", Simon spoke as Theodore sniffed and became disgusted.
"Yuck! Even I wouldn't eat that mess.", Theodore commented.
"My thoughts exactly.", Alvin responded.
"Houston, we have a problem.", Simon spoke.
"What is it?", Alvin asked.
"Apparently, this stuff won't work unless Amy eats it while she's higher up.", Simon responded.
A moment afterward, however, a limo pulled up and out stepped a man named Bud Wiley, who the people were immediately taking pictures of as Amy noticed first before turning to the chipmunks.
"Uh, guys? We may have some trouble here.", Amy warned to the three chipmunks, who then noticed Bud Wiley stepping out of the limo, waving to the photographers.
Meanwhile, Talbot and Frankie went over to the wardrobe and spoke to one of the make-up artists in the trailer.
"Hello.", Talbot greeted.
"Hey, I know you. You're the new principal in Clyde C. Crashcup.", the makeup artist spoke in realization.
"And let me guess. Alvin told you that.", Talbot spoke.
"You know it. It's still pretty crazy, though. You used to be a werewolf and look at you now. So, what brings you and your, uh… green friend here?", the artist asked.
"I hope it isn't a bother. But if it's all right with you, may we have a sample of your make-up artistry?", Talbot asked.
"Sure. How soon do you want to see 'em?", the artist asked just as Talbot spotted Dr. Frankenstein attempting to sneak his way inside while under the guise of a woman.
"As soon as possible.", Talbot responded.
Meanwhile, Dr. Frankenstein went over to the guard and spoke.
"Excuse me, darling.", Dr. Frankenstein spoke before passing through, only for the guard to pick up a familiar scent and then tosses him aside, but not before stopping him and pulling the wig off.
"Nice try, pops. But next time, change your cologne.", the guard suggested before then tossing him out toward the trash can just in time for someone in the Sammy Squirrel costume to appear and pull him out of the trash can.
"Sammy to the rescue! Nyuck, nyuck, nyuck!", "Sammy" spoke as he hugged Dr. Frankenstein, who then tried to pry away from him.
"Let go of me, you disgusting…! Yet compassionate rodent.", Dr. Frankenstein smirked as he suddenly got an idea.
Back at the world premiere, Amy was quite nervous.
"Please tell me you guys finished the antidote.", Amy spoke in worry.
"We just did, actually.", Simon responded.
"Oh, thank goodness. The sooner I get changed back, the better.", Amy grinned.
But before there could be anymore cause for celebration, Bud eventually noticed something odd via his peripheral vision, and when he does, he grew quite horrified at the sight of her giant form and shouted.
"AAAAH! GIANT MONSTER GIRL!", Bud shouted, prompting Amy, in her own panic, grabbed him and climbed up the top of the theater as if on instinct.
Then, it was only a matter of time before a panic broke out as everyone ran around, flailing their arms around and scaring them. Even Amy became much alarmed.
"Oh, no…", Amy groaned.
At the same time, Dr. Frankenstein rushed in, disguised as Sammy Squirrel.
"Sammy to the rescue! Nyuck, nyuck, nyuck!", Dr. Frankenstein shouted, passing by the security guard in the midst of the confusion and chaos.
"Help! Someone get me down from here!", Bud shouted in panic before Simon cleared his throat while tapping on a woman's shoulder.
"Uh, may I borrow this?", Simon asked, grabbing the brown, soft scarf and making off with it, making the woman give a scoff of disgust, before Simon brough the scarf over to Alvin and Theodore and set it down before placing the bowl of antidote onto the scarf.
"Here we go, guys. And we only get one shot.", Simon warned before he went to one side of the scarf with Theodore on another before Simon then made sure where to launch it using his thumb as a way to help with calculations before Simon and Theodore lifted the scarf up.
"Hurry up, guys!", Amy spoke in worry.
"One… Two… Bombs away!", Simon shouted before he and Theodore launched the bowl toward the giant, splashing it into her face just enough for her to taste it, which left quite a bad taste in her mouth as she made a face.
"Ugh! That's the grossest thing I ever tasted.", Amy commented.
A moment afterward, she suddenly started to shrink, the slight convulsions of which caused her to let go of Bud as he fell down, much to her shock in spite of her shrinking as she gasped.
"No, no, no, this can't be!", Ted shouted.
"Bud! Hang on!", Amy shouted before she suddenly started to grow back into her giant form just as quickly and managed to catch him by the time she finished growing and this time, set him down gently on the ground.
"Phew. That was close. Are you okay?", Amy asked just before photographers and famous actors rushed over to the two, amazed.
"Marvelous!", one of the actors spoke.
"Oh, it was fabulous. Best publicity stunt I've ever seen.", another added to Amy.
"Especially the part where you screamed like a girl.", another commented to Bud, puzzling him in a surprising way all while Amy, being an extremely humble girl, only blushed.
"Yes, that was phenomenal! My job is saved…! I mean thank goodness Amy is all right. Perhaps the chipmunks could still perform?", Ted asked.
Later, the chipmunks were getting ready for their late night show, this time with Amy, her clothes now resembling her previous, torn ones, but in a blue, glittery color, on-stage, given her gigantic role, literally speaking.
"Thanks, guys. But how am I still huge?", Amy puzzled.
"Well, apparently, it says here that once the antidote is taken, its effects would vary depending on what the recipient who drank the antidote wants while it's taking effect.", Simon responded.
"Wow. Really? Well, in that case, let's give 'em a concert they won't forget.", Amy grinned, not knowing that Dr. Frankenstein, still disguised as Sammy Squirrel, wasn't far behind.
"Oh, good. She must not have taken the antidote yet. Now, for Plan B. If I can just zap her quick, I'll have my zombie.", Dr. Frankenstein plotted as he went behind the speakers and tweaked the output.
Unfortunately for him, both Talbot and Dr. Frankenstein were right behind him with the former dressed as a werewolf, resembling how he used to look whenever he rampaged across the neighborhood as a werewolf, only with his eyes still a normal color.
"Not if we have anything to say about it, Dr. Frankenstein.", Talbot spoke before Dr. Frankenstein then turned the power of the speakers on, causing a surge to go up toward the electric guitar.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Alvin and the Chipmunks!", the announcer shouted.
"Wunderbar! It's working!", Dr. Frankenstein shouted gleefully before both Talbot and Frankie appeared right behind him, catching him off-guard.
"Nein…! It cannot be…!", Dr. Frankenstein exclaimed.
"I think you've done enough experiments for a lifetime, herr Doctor.", Talbot spoke before Frankie grabbed the doctor in a squirrel costume by its tail, much to everyone's surprise as they noticed what was happening.
"Help me! Somebody help me!", Dr. Frankenstein exclaimed.
"Attention, everyone! For the longest time since that person arrived only a day ago, someone was performing vexing, eccentric experiments, those of which resulted in Amy's gigantic growth spurt as well as the creation of this misguided, misunderstood creature you see before you and that person is right here!", Talbot announced, pulling off the helmet to reveal inside, Dr. Frankenstein, much to everyone's shock as they gasped.
"Dr. Frankenstein, your experiments have confounded us for the last time! So, let's see how you like it when something like that happens to you!", Talbot shouted before kicking him up into the air straight toward Amy's giant guitar, which was strummed by the doctor, zapping him to a point that the electricity coursed through the guitar's cord, causing the speaker to explode from the excess energy before the smoke cleared as Amy wafted it away.
"Phew. That was a close one.", Amy commented before the smoke parted to reveal the mad scientist knocked out cold.
"Relax, everyone. A burst like that wouldn't be enough to put him out of commission. In short, he's taking a nap.", Talbot assured.
"Amy, you're still…you.", Simon grinned.
"Yes. And it's all thanks to him.", Talbot grinned.
"Frankie, you saved her!", Theodore spoke while running to Frankie, who then hugged Theodore happily as Amy grinned.
"Aw.", Amy smiled.
But the audience saw what happened differently.
"Oh, it's a monster! He's hurting that little chipmunk!", a woman assumed.
"Oh, my gosh! Theodore!", Dave shouted.
"Oh, boy…", the giantess sighed before Frankie got defensive and wrapped his arms around Theodore as if to protect him, urging the audience to get the torches and move in angrily toward the monster, only for Talbot to stop them quickly.
"Easy, everyone! Places! Ahem. Look, he may be a monster, but that doesn't mean he's the type to hurt anyone. Anymore than I am, let alone was. As you already know, I was once a werewolf until Amy and Theodore helped break the curse. And as for this creature I mentioned, as I said before, he's misguided and misunderstood. And I know because we all spent time with him, teaching him how to make friends, how to be a friend. And so, I ask you, which one is the true monster here? The monster? Or the exposed mad scientist who created him?", Talbot asked, puzzling the audience enough to mumble their own thoughts of agreement.
"All that said, you can never judge a book by its cover. The cover may look disturbing, but it's the contents within that count.", Talbot added before Frankie then lifted Theodore up and gave a happy snarling sound before Theodore replied back with a snarling sound of his own.
"…, too.", Theodore grinned before Frankie set Theodore down with Dave then going up to Frankie and offering his hand.
"Thank you.", Talbot spoke before Frankie then hugged Dave, who found out he was surprisingly strong, before the audience shrugged and then spoke positively to Frankie.
"You 'da monster!", one of the audience spoke as the rest agreed.
Meanwhile, though, Dr. Frankenstein started to come to and stood up.
"I'll get that Amy yet as soon as I get rid of this stupid costume. Cheap…, stupid…, stupid thing…!", Dr. Frankenstein growled as he tried to remove the costume, but to no avail.
"I don't think you'll find it possible. When you got zapped, the spark had meshed the two parts of the costume together. So, like it or not, at the end of the day, the spirit of Sammy Squirrel will live on.", Talbot responded, much to the mad scientist's dismay.
"No…! No! I'm trapped! I'm doomed! Doomed to be Sammy Squirrel…FOREVER!", Dr. Frankenstein whined, banging his arms against the ground.
Later, the next day, Dr. Frankenstein was now going around the park, greeting the children as well as adults that were passing by.
"Is everybody feeling Sammy? Nyuck, nyuck! How about you, kid?', Dr. Frankenstein asked before Ted pulled over near him.
"Come on, Sammy. Isn't it just about time for your theme song, hm?", Ted asked smirkingly before driving away, saddening the once mad scientist as he lowered his head.
"Not the theme song…", Dr. Frankenstein spoke just as more people turned up near him.
"Hiya, folks!", Dr. Frankenstein spoke before one of the park-goers took a picture of him with the children playing around Sammy.
"Sammy, Sammy, Sammy. I'm a squirrel, squirrel, squirrel. Smartest little…", Dr. Frankenstein began before then giving a slight sob.
"I hate my life.", Dr. Frankenstein spoke sadly.
Meanwhile, the chipmunks had just finished their latest show as people walked out.
"We've got an hour 'til our next show. Come on. Let's go see Frankie.", Theodore stated.
"Okay. I just gotta make sure things are in order for the stage up top, first.", Amy, now back to normal size, responded before growing again, but this time, at half the size she was last time so as to check how things are without even getting off the ground while doing a stage check.
"Yep. Everything's clear.", Amy grinned as she shrank back down to normal size.
"Wasn't that great of the park staff to give him a job?", Simon grinned.
"Hey! We deserve the credit. After all, we taught him how to talk.", Alvin responded before then showing Frankie driving the tour bus quite a bit wildly as the drive was getting bumpy before speaking to the microphone.
"Anybody here from out of state?", Frankie asked before then waving to Alvin, Simon, Theodore, and Amy as soon as he spotted them, even passing by them.
"Hey! There he is!", Alvin grinned as they waved before realizing where it was headed.
"Incoming!", Amy shouted before she and the others leapt away from the bus before it could hit them.
"Phew.", Amy sighed.
"Unfortunately, you also taught him how to drive.", Simon spoke before he and the others continued waving to Frankie.
"I just hope we don't get lost and late again, Captain Lost.", Amy smirked.
"Oh, come on. It was one time.", Alvin responded as it then went over to the castle of Dr. Frankenstein, which has stood and remained inactive ever since last night's events as time passed and the moon was now behind the castle in view.
A/N: So, what'd you think? Pretty cool, huh? And with that, I can finally get back with the schedule as best I can. You can let me know what you think in the reviews if you like. Until next time. :)
