Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet the Wolfman
Chapter 3: Another Matter
Later, Dave was speaking with Principal Milliken in her office.
"Ms. Milliken, I am really sorry about what happened today. I-I'm sure it was just an accident, but, uh, if there's anything Alvin or I could do...", Dave apologized before the principal only laughed.
"Don't worry about it. This school board passed a special bond issue last year just to cover damages caused by Alvin. Besides, I'm about to take early retirement. Oh, lucky me! Alvin'll be somebody else's problem.", Ms. Milliken assured as she got out a file from the cabinet and then went back to her desk.
"You're retiring? Why, y-you don't look a day over...50.", Dave responded, puzzling her before she turned around and had to correct him.
"I'm 31!", Ms. Milliken shouted.
"Oh.", Dave responded with a slight nervous chuckle.
"This is what having Alvin for a student has done to me! However, now that you're here, it's Theodore I'm worried about.", Ms. Milliken added.
"Theodore?", Dave asked.
"Come with me.", Milliken spoke before she picked Dave up by the arm and escorted him out the office.
Later, the two arrived at the now-gooey auditorium as it was being cleaned up by the students, which was quite a sight for Dave as he gasped.
"Uh-Huh.", Ms. Milliken spoke.
Then, as Theodore was mopping, a hand reached out and then grabbed it before pulling it away with Theodore still holding onto it. That hand came from Nathan, who wasted no time in messing with the poor chipmunk with a brief tug of war, which only caught Amy's attention nearby as she gasped.
"Cut it out, Nathan! Let go!", Theodore urged before Nathan only laughed as he did so, causing Theodore to tumble back and land onto a pile of slime, which alarmed Dave.
"Hey, hey, hey!", Dave shouted as he reached out and tried to help only for Ms. Milliken to stop him.
"Uh-uh. I don't blame you, but Theodore's got to learn to fight his own battles.", Ms. Milliken responded.
"So, that's why he doesn't want to come to school.", Dave realized.
"Nathan's a bully, but Theodore won't come to me and complain, so there's not much I can do.", Milliken responded.
Meanwhile, Nathan was about to mess with Theodore again just as the chipmunk was mopping up the slime as he chuckled, got out a piece of slime, and slipped it into a long, thin straw, not knowing that Amy noticed with a gasp before turning to Alvin and whispering to him.
"Alvin, Nathan's at it again.", Amy whispered.
"Gotcha.", Alvin nodded before quickly running up the stairs with scissors in hand just as Nathan was aiming and was about to fire a slimeball when Alvin cut the rope holding the stage weight, causing it to fall down and land on Nathan's foot, making him reel in pain just as he fired not at Theodore, but at a lamp.
"Ow!", Nathan exclaimed before Theodore noticed the slimeball bouncing off the lamp before Theodore gasped and ducked underneath the slimeball, causing it to hit Nathan squarely on the forehead instead before he angrily saw Alvin as he held the scissors behind his back as Amy spoke to him.
"Oh, Nathan. Watch out for those stage weights. They're really heavy.", Amy smirked before Nathan growled and stormed off.
"You okay, Theodore?", Alvin asked.
"Yeah. Thanks, Alvin.", Theodore thanked before he and Alvin walked away as Amy walked with them.
"Hm. I will say this for Alvin. He sticks up for his little brother.", Milliken admitted.
"Kinda makes it easier to forgive him for blowing up the auditorium, doesn't it?", Dave asked nervously.
"No.", Milliken responded causally.
A/N: And now, we approach the 4th chapter where things start to go differently. Very mysterious, eh? :)
