Chapter 3: Costume Issues

Unfortunately, when both Alvin and Simon walked out of the bedroom, they forgot that Theodore was still stuck under his bed sheets looking very ghost-like, on his bed. "Hey! You guys! Wait for me!" Theodore cried out try to get free from his bed sheet. As he struggled however, the sheet became loose and separated from the bed. "Whoa!" Theodore screamed as he fell off the bed still trapped under the white bed sheet. The sheet-covered chipmunk slowly got up, and as he started walking blindly towards the hallway, Theodore cried out: "Ah, Alvin? Simon? Where did you go? I can't see!"

Meanwhile, downstairs on the couch, Alvin and Simon were discussing their costume ideas with Dave. Alvin was planning on wearing a black sweater while wearing an appropriate monster mask, while Simon decide to use some spare toilet paper to wrap around himself while leaving open areas for his eyes, nose, and mouth. Dave agreed, saying that we would help Alvin out with finding a mask and wrapping the toilet paper around Simon so he wouldn't get tangled. "Hey fellas, Where is Theodore?" Dave asked. "He decided to be a ghost for his costume. He's probably stuck under his bed sheets," Simon explained. "I'll go help him!" Alvin exclaimed now making his way to the stairs.

Back upstairs, Theodore was unable to throw the white bed sheet off of himself, and kept walking around not knowing where he was going! "Ah man! I have got to put some eyeholes in this thing. Somebody help me! I'm stuck!" Theodore cried out desperately, trying to get out of the bed sheet. As Theodore kept struggling to get the white bed sheet off, he didn't know that he was now heading for the stairs.

Alvin was already halfway up the stairs when he suddenly saw his brother still trapped under his white bed sheet at the top of the stairs. "Theodore, look out!" Alvin cried, but he was too late! The sheet-covered chipmunk tripped on the top step, and was now flying towards Alvin! "AHHH!" Alvin screamed as his sheet-covered brother collided with him, causing them both to roll down the stairs onto the rug, with Alvin accidentally getting tangled under the white bed sheet as well.

"Alvin! Theodore!" Dave and Simon cried out now rushing over to help the two chipmunks frantically trying to get out of the white sheet. "Ahhhh! Help! Get me outta here!" Alvin cried out trying to throw the white bed sheet off of himself, getting tangled up even more with every attempt. "Help! Help! I'm stuck!" Theodore cried out as he tried desperately to get unstuck from his bed sheet.

Once Alvin and Theodore were out of the bed sheets, Dave asked: "Alvin, Theodore, are you two alright?"

"Yeah. I wanted to be a ghost under my bed sheets, but I couldn't see and got stuck under the sheets. I called out for help, but nobody came. Then when I found the stairs, I tripped, fell on Alvin, and we both got stuck under my bed sheets!" Theodore explained before facing Alvin. At that moment, Alvin and Theodore hugged each other.

"I'm sorry I fell on you, Alvin. I couldn't see anything under my bed sheets, so I didn't know you were coming up the stairs!" Theodore apologized to his brother.

"That's okay. It was an accident after all!" Alvin replied separating from the hug. After the chipmunk brothers hugged each other and Theodore grabbed his bed sheets off of the floor, they went back upstairs to go hang out, and hopefully come up with a costume solution.
