Chapter 8: The Three Ghosts
Alvin, Simon, and Theodore all ran for the living room in order to try and find each other to get help. What they didn't know was that they all would get spooked by each other.
Alvin, Simon and Theodore all entered the living room and met each other at the bottom of the staircase. However, when they saw it other, they got nervous. Not one of the brothers looked the same from when they all left to look around the house. In fact, they all looked spooky. This could only mean one thing.
"AHHHHHHH! Ghosts! Help!" all three of the chipmunk brothers screamed now running off in different directions trying their best to get away from the 'ghosts'.
Theodore ran back into the kitchen, and then ran out the back door to the backyard. Unfortunately, it was still windy outside. In fact, it was so windy, that Theodore had a hard time standing up. Theodore only stayed outside for a few minutes, but as he tried to not get blown away from the wind, the flour got blown off of his face, paws, shoes and clothes. It also began to lightly rain, so the water helped clean Theodore as well. Once Theodore got cleaned off, he went back inside the house. However, Theodore forgot that since he had been in the rain, water was dripping from his fur and clothes.
Theodore thought that nothing could go wrong, but that was a mistake; water now covered the floor, and as Theodore was about to go back to the living room, he slipped on the water, and went sliding across the kitchen floor all the way to the kitchen table! The kitchen table used to have a tablecloth on it, but Alvin had accidentally ripped it one night, so instead of a tablecloth, a white bed sheet was draped over the table. Theodore didn't know how to stop, so when he got to the table, Theodore grabbed the bed sheet hoping it would help him stop. It did, but when Theodore grabbed the bed sheet, he accidentally pulled it off of the table and the bed sheet landed right on top of him!
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Help! Who turned out the lights?! Get me outta here! Help!" Theodore cried out struggling to get out of the bed sheet. He then wondered around and went to go find Alvin and Simon so they could help him out of the bed sheet.
Alvin on the other hand, ran back down into the basement. Alvin then found the flashlight he was using on the floor by the mirror. Alvin grabbed it, and then looked at the cups that he had looked at before. He saw the red one had drank from was labeled 'see through/invisible', and another red one next to it labeled 'solution: turn back to normal'. Alvin ran over and drank the one that said 'solution' and then ran over to the mirror. Alvin could see himself again; he was perfectly solid.
"Yes! I can see myself again! Yes!" Alvin cheered as he danced around. Unfortunately, while he was dancing, Alvin slid backwards, and right into the bed sheet covered boxes. The bed sheet slid off and fell right on top of Alvin again.
"Ahhhhhh! Not again! Help! Somebody help me!" Alvin yelled as he struggled under the bed sheet. Alvin had a hard time getting the bed sheet off, and he couldn't see! As Alvin kept on struggling, he decided to go find his brothers and ran throughout the basement, and then up the stairs!
Meanwhile, Simon ran upstairs and into the bedroom screaming. Simon kept trying to get the bed sheet off, but it was hard to see. As Simon kept struggling to get out of the sheet, he ended up walking in front of the bedroom closet, unaware that another bed sheet was about to fall. After several more attempts, Simon finally got the bed sheet with holes off of him. Unfortunately, he stumbled backwards causing the other bed sheet that was hanging from above, to fall on top of him!
"Ahhhhh! Help! Theodore! Alvin! I can't see!" Simon yelled now struggling under the bed sheet with no eye holes in it. Simon tried to get the sheet off, but he was unsuccessful. It was scary for Simon being trapped under a bed sheet, and since he had no idea where he was going or how to get out, he just blindingly walked around the house trying to get out of the bed sheet.
Eventually, the three bed sheet covered chipmunk brothers all ran back to the bottom of the staircase where they had seen the 'ghosts'. However, since Alvin, Simon, and Theodore were all covered under bed sheets from head to toe, they couldn't see anything and ended up bumping into each other.
"Owe!" the three bed sheet covered chipmunks cried out, bumping into each other and falling to the ground. Alvin, Simon and Theodore got up, still covered in the bed sheets and after a few minutes of struggling, they got out of the bed sheets.
Alvin, Simon and Theodore were so happy to see each other, and they embraced each other in a group hug. After they separated, Simon said: "Are you guys okay? I looked around the bedroom but found nothing. Then a bed sheet fell on top of me, and when I went back downstairs, I saw two ghosts!"
"I was in the basement, and accidentally drank your 'see through' drink and then when I went to find you guys, I saw two ghosts!" Alvin replied.
"I saw two ghosts too! I searched the kitchen, but got covered in flour. I ran to go look for help, but then I saw two ghosts!" Theodore exclaimed. Simon paused to think for a minute, and realized something.
"Wait a minute! If we all ran back to find each other after something had happened to us, and we ended up seeing two ghosts at the same time, then that means that there were no ghosts at all! We just saw each other and thought the other two were the ghosts!" Simon explained with joy.
