The Chipmunk Tour Saga, Book VI:

"Kingdom Hearts, Part I: 'Turnabout Intruder'"

Chapter 3

"Who is the Huntsman?" McGee asked. "If what I've read of your past cases is accurate, the Huntsman is worse than Ari Haswari and La Grenouille put together," White Ranger said.

"The Huntsman is leader of the Huntsclan, the world's second-largest terrorist organization—second only to Al Qaeda," Black Ranger said. "You name it, the Huntsclan has done it—grand theft, kidnapping, arson, murder."

The doors to the science lab hissed open, revealing Gibbs and Red Ranger. "What've you got, Abs?" Gibbs asked.

"We've got a suspect, Gibbs," Abby said, gesturing to the monitor screen as McGee was using D.E.C.A. to locate everything on the Huntsman. He put it on a PADD and handed it to Gibbs.

"Are you sure about this, Abby?" Gibbs asked. "AFIS doesn't lie," Abby said. "The Huntsman killed out petty officer."

Meanwhile, in the l.v.d.b., Alvin, Brittany and Kylie stood in front of the entire staff of the Chipmunk Adventure 20th Anniversary World Tour.

"'By order of William Adamle, President/C.E.O. of SFM Records,'" Alvin began, reading a PADD. "'The Chipmunk Adventure 20th Anniversary World Tour is over, effective 12: 01 AM, December 27th, 2008.'"

Alvin handed the PADD to Brittany, who continued to read the edict. "'In its place will begin a tour in which the Chipmunks and Chipettes are joined by three of the top acts under the SFM Records umbrella: Kylie Styles, Hannah Montana and Kira and the Ford Escorts,'" Brittany read before handing the PADD to Kylie.

"'Let the 1st Annual SFM Records SuperTour begin!'" Kylie finished. The staff began to cheer.

The staff's cheering echoed in Alvin's ears as he walked down the corridor. Behind him came the clattering of heels on the deck.

Alvin turned and saw the living personification of a Goth run up to him. "Who, may I ask, are you?" Alvin asked.

"My name is Abigail Sciuto, but please call me Abby," she said. "I'm with the NCIS agents working to investigate the break-in and murder at the Navy Yard yesterday."

"Oh, nice to meet you, Abby," Alvin said, shaking Abby's hand. "Alvin 's attention was diverted to the stuffed animal nestled in the crook of Abby's arm.

Abby noticed that Alvin's attention was diverted to the stuffed animal. "His name is Bert, and he's a hippopotamus," she said. "Want to take a look?"

Alvin nodded. Abby smiled as she handed Bert to Alvin. "How cute," Alvin said as he squeezed it. But, as soon as he did, the stuffed hippo let out a loud farting noise.

Alvin did a double take between the stuffed animal and Abby's smiling face. He then squeezed the hippo again. And again, the sound of flatulence echoed in the corridor.

Alvin rolled his eyes, and then handed Bert back to Abby.

On the Bridge, Theodore turned in the command chair when Eleanor reported, "Theo, we're receiving a message from the FBI addressed to Agent Gibbs."

In the science lab, Gibbs and Red Ranger were listening to McGee and Abby's latest findings when Theodore's voice came on the comm.

"Agent Gibbs, this is the Bridge," Theodore said. "There is an incoming message from FBI Senior Field Agent Tobias Fornell."

"Put it through," Gibbs said. A click sounded, followed by Fornell. "Jethro, I've got a lead on the Huntsman. Meet me at the Vietnam Memorial," Fornell said.

"On our way, Tobias," Gibbs said. "McGee, you and Abby will remain here under Red Ranger's command." "Right, Boss," McGee said as Gibbs left the science lab.

After Gibbs and his team were safely off the Megaship, Theodore's voice came on the comm again. "Attention, all personnel, this is the Bridge. Prepare for emergency departure sequence. The U.G.F. starship Enterprise is in distress and is asking for our help!"

The deck rumbled under Abby and McGee's feet as the Megaship took off and soared through Earth's atmosphere. Little did anyone aboard know that it would be the final time that the Megaship would do so.
