Chapter III Hungry Like The Wolf
In the last chapter the crew was attacked by a giant kraken which destroyed their ship. Chloe, Tom, Nicole, Jason and Zaria washed up on an island. Whilr Chloe found her bearings Tom, Nicole, Jaosn and Zaria looked for some fire wood, not only did they find some fire wood but they also retrieved a silver sphere that the pirates was interested in. Chloe also found that they were stranded in the middle of the Bamuda Triangle. A dangerous place and mysterous place were ships go in but they never come out but what about the other members of the crew? What had happened to them?
On an island not far from the island where Chloe, Tom, Nicole, Jason and Zaria was stranded Alvin had just woke up and for some reason he was in a hedge but lucky he wasn't the only one there Judy, Rocky and Reilly was standing right over him.
"Could someone please tell me why we are here?" Asked Alvin as he got up off the ground
"There are pirates on this island we heard them" replied Reilly
"We tried to wake you but you wouldn't wake up and their footsteps and voices grew louder so we decided to drag you in here" said Rocky
"Drag!" Exclaimed Alvin
"Alvin, we have another problem" said Judy
"You've got that right my heads killing me" replied Alvin as he rubbed his head.
"No I meen that Scott just went off to look for the pirates" said Judy
"Isn't he Nicole's responsibility?" Asked Alvin
"Yes but Nicole isn't here, we're the only ones who are here" said Reilly
"Well let's not assume the worst" said Alvin
"We weren't" said Rocky
"Alvin, we have to find Scott Nicole won't be able to live with us if something happened to him!" Exclaimed Judy
"I think you meen she won't be able to live with her self" said Alvin
"No I meant live with us after all it'll be our fault if he gets hurt" replied Judy
Meanwhile Scott was walking through the island's jungle until he came across a clearing. In the middle of the clearing was a pedestal and on in the pedestal was a golden scepter. Scott then slowly walked to the pedistal and put both hands around the sceptor and took it out of the pedistal. As soon as it was removed he heard footsteps approach him from behind, he turned around to see that Leon had entered the clearing accompanied by Melvin and Dexter.
"Than you" he said slowly
"For what?" Asked Scott
"Retrieving that sceptor for us" Leon replied
"I didn't retrieve it for you!" exclaimed Scott
Just then Ray grabbed Scott from behind and twisted his arm which made him drop the scepter. Leon then picked it up off the ground.
"Didn't you know? None of us could remove it from it's altar because it sences evil" said Leon
"Why do you want it?" Asked Scott
"Wouldn't you like to know" replied Melvin
"Since you retrieved it for us I might not kill you" said Leon
"We're not going to kill him?" Asked Dexter But what if was responsible for my brothers death?
"Dexter, he's one of the new recruits but if you want to kill him then be my guest" said Leon
Dexter then pulled out a pistol and aimed straight at Scott's head.
"This is for Cole" He said though gritted teeth
"Who the hell is Cole?" Asked Scott
Dexter was about to shoot but a shot was fired at his hand which made him drop his pistol. He turned around to see who fired the gun and saw that Alvin was standing in the entrance of the clearing acompanied with Rocky, Reilly and Judy who was the one fired the shot.
"Just so you know Dexter the one in red killed your brother" said Leon
Dexter quikly picked up his pistol and aimed it straight at Alvin.
"I'll make you pay for what you've done" Dexter said though gritted teeth.
"What are you talking about?"Asked Alvin
Dexter was about to shoot Alvin but Leon stopped him by putting his hand on the gun.
"I think it's time we left" he said
"Now!" Exclaimed Dexter
"Yes now" Leon replied
Dexter, Leon and Ray then left the clearing but before they left Ray looked at the sky and began to laugh to himself. Alvin noticed that they left one pirate behind, Melvin was in the middle of clearing and he was staring up into the sky at a full moon that had come from behind a cloud. Melvin's eyes suddenlly grew wider, his teeth and claws grew sharper. He then rose up on his hind legs and howled at the moon.
"He's a werewolf, that explains why they were in a hurry to leave" said Alvin
"Actually more like a munkwolf because werewolf implys that he''s half man half wolf but he's actually half chipmuk half wolf" stated Judy
"But werewolf sounds cooler" replied Alvin
"Uh guys he's coming this way" said Reilly
The werewolf jumped at the chipmunks but they dodged out of the way and ran into the island jungle and the Melvin ran after them. while they were running they came to a fork in the path so they split up. Alvin, Scott and Rocky went down one path while Judy and Reilly went down the other. Alvin, Scott and Rocky kept running down the path that they took until they hid behind a tree, Scott then looked around the tree to check if the werewolf was there.
"Hey he's not there" said Scott
"You meen we was running from nothing!" Exclaimed Alvin
"Wait a sec if he didn't come after us that meens he went after the girls" stated Rocky
"Sacrifices was made" said Alvin
Just then a scream could be heard in the distance.
"That sounds like Reilly" said Rocky and he darted off to the direction of the scream.
Scott was about to follow him but Alvin grabbed his arm.
"Where do you think you're going?" He said
"Let go of me Alvin I want to help!" Exclaimed Scott
"No way it's too dangerous" stated Alvin as he pulled Scott back behind the tree.
Meenwhile Rocky was running throung the jungle trying to find the werewolf. He wasn't hard to track all he had to do was follow the footprints and the parts of the jungle that looked like it had been scratched by sharp claws. Eventually Rocky found the werewolf and he also found Judy and Reilly. Judy was knocked out cold against a tree and Reilly was lying on the floor at the werewolfs feet. It looked he was going for the kill.
"Hey big bad wolf, get away from her!" Exclaimed Rocky
The werewolf looked at Rocky but just ignored him.
"I said get away from her" Rocky repeated but he still ignored her
The werewolf then went to dig his claws into Reilly but Rocky reacted quickly and tackeled him.
"You should have listened to me and now you've gone and made me mad" he said
There was something different about his eyes aswell as his voice, he seemed possessed. The werewolf got up and attacked Rocky with his claws but he withdrew his sword just in time to block the attack. The werewolf then went bite him but Rocky grabbed his mouth with both his to stop him from bitting. Rocky then forced him onto the ground. The werewolf slowly got up and moved towards Rocky. The werewolf and Rocky were ready to attack until a howl was heard in the distance and the werewolf went off into that direction. As soon as he was gone Rocky calmed down and he reverted back to his ussual self and he then helped Reilly up.
"Reilly, are you OK?" He asked
"Yeah I'm fine" She replied
"I'm OK too by the way" said Judy as she got up
"Where did he go?" Asked Reilly
"I don't know maybe there's another werewolf out there" replied Rocky
Meanwhile Alvin and Scott was hiding in a log because Alvin was the one who howled. They kept very scilent because the werewolf was pacing up and down the log but eventually he went away.
"How did you know that they were in trouble?" Asked Scott
"I just had a feeling" Alvin Replied
"What do we do now?" Asked Scott
"We just wait until morning" Said Alvin
"But what about the others they're still out there!" Exclaimed Scott
"They can handle themselves now just sleep I keep a look out for Melvin" said Alvin
Meenwhile on the island where the others were stranded the crew had set up camp on the beach and had taken in turns who would keep watch, the chipmunk who was on look out now was Zaria. Zaria heard a noise through the bushes she looked to see who was there and then to her surprise her sister Zion stepped out of the bushes and onto the beach.
"Zion" she said
"Zaria, I need to talk to you but first put down you weapon" said Zion
slowly Zaria put down her weapon.
"Are you thinking about converting?" Asked Zaria
"No" she said with a smile
And just like that the camp was surrounded by the pirates which woke up the crew.
"What is the meaning of this!" Exclaimed Chloe
"Well some might call it an ambush" replied Valerie
Chloe then went to pick her sword but Valerie stood on her hand.
"YOU'LL NEVER CHANGE!" Yelled Zaria as she picked up her twin pistols off the ground and started to shoot her sister but Zion just dodged every bullit.
"So pathetic" said Erin who was stood right next to Zion
The pirates brought the crew onto their ship and locked them into the brig.
"This kinda feels like deja vu" said Tom
"Great, now what we going to do!" Exclaimed Chloe who was pacing the floor
"We've been in this spot before and we got out OK" said Jason
"At least we're no longer stranded" stated Nicole
"They took our weapons off us and even worse they took the sphere" said Chloe
"Why is that sphere worst than being unarmed?" Asked Jason
"Because I think it's really important for some reason" replied Chloe
"I can tell you what you want to know about the sphere" came a voice from outside the cell
The chipmunks all looked to see who had said it and they they saw a light blonde furred chipmunk.
"My names Paris" She said
"Did you say you know about the sphere?" Asked Zaria
"Yes I heared Vallerie talking about it" Paris replied
"Why should we trust you? You're a pirate!" Exclaimed Chloe
"I'm not a pirate I just do what Valerie says because she saved my life" said Paris
"Ok so what do you know?" Asked Chloe
"I know that the pirates are looking for a scepter and a sphere" she said
"Yes we already know that" said Chloe
"Wait no we don't all we know is that they want a sphere" Nicole stated
"I don't know how they work but they hold the location to the fountain of youth" said Paris
