Disclaimer: I own none of the characters of Alvin and the chipmunks since they were created by Ross Bagdasarian Sr but is currently owned by his son/successor: Ross Bagdasarian Jr. The only character I own so far is Alvin and Brittany's son: Alex, his crush: Alesha and the villain of this story but I will update this whenever any other characters I made up come into the picture.

Without a voice.

"A school field trip? Hmmm, seems like a fantastic." Simon mused as he sat beside his nephew who was reading a book on forest survival and camping. Alex had just told his uncle via note that he and some of the school was going on a school trip for the first time in 17 years.

"Yeah, we haven't been on a school trip when we were at West Eastman!" Jeanette exclaimed excitedly as she ruffled her nephew's hair up. It was clear that Alex was pretty excited about going out to the woodlands with his classmates since he wasn't allowed outside anywhere because of his condition.

"C'mon, my butterfly biscuit." Theodore encouraged as she assisted his expecting wife towards the couch. "Okay. Hey, Theo, Do you think that there are unicorns in the living room?"

Everyone rolled their eyes at the mention of unicorns. You see, Eleanor was now at that stage in her pregnancy where she believes in dumb things like the fact that dinosaurs still rule the earth and she has these bazaar hallucinations. That and her hormones were becoming out of whack since she got emotional about every little thing.

Theodore didn't know how to respond so just took her into the living room and laid her down on the couch where she looked at her sister, brother-in-law and nephew sitting beside her. Eleanor smiled excitedly at Jeanette "Oh, Jen! You never told me you were really a Phelosser raptor!"

"Wait, what?" Jeanette looked at her pregnant sister as if she had just told her that she had started flying. Before she could say or do anything else, Eleanor jumped on her sister's back and exclaimed evilly while holding on to her ear as the smartest of the Chipettes was forced on all fours "Mush, my dino! Run on a rampage until you devour everything in you're path!"

Both Alex and Simon watched this amusing scene as Jeanette instantly charged forwards with Eleanor as her temporary 'Rider'. Jeanette bucked and kicked to try and get her sister off her back but she was too strong. Seriously, why was Ellie acting so crazily insane?!

Alvin and Brittany even laughed their heads off at this hilarious sight as Eleanor ran rampant in the house. Theodore had given up at this point at trying to prevent his wife from doing anything crazy and decided to sit back, have a donut and enjoy the show. "I'll get you all back for this!" Jeanette yelled half jokingly as she continued to fight and bark at her crazy sister.

Dave had already gone to buy a few items for Alex to bring along for his school trip since the young chipmunk clearly didn't have enough stuff for this kind of thing. Plus, having a little treat wasn't a bad idea after everything he had been through and everything he's going to be put through.

The Chipmunks and Chipettes had their day alone and they even watched a few films on the big screen television.

Alvin picked his film first: A James Bond film. Alvin was nuts for spy films such as this and he always used to watch it without Dave's permission back when he and the others were on the vacation when they got shipwrecked on an even quoted a line from it.

Simon picked the Titanic film next. He loved films that was about real life events in history but he was also a sucker for such fluff and romance.

Theodore picked a film he loved very much and Alvin shared his interest in this particular film: TMNT (the 2007 version). If there was one Teenage mutant Ninja turtle he liked most, it would have to be Michelangelo. He didn't know why but the chubby male chipmunk just plain loved this kind of thing.

Brittany watched a film that was highly predictable for her to pick: Sky high! She didn't know why but Sky high was just her favourite movie to watch and nobody else liked it. Her favourite character was Layla, the love interest of the main character. Brittany didn't know why but her heart soared at the sight of Will stronghold since her relationship and Layla's reminded her of her own and Alvin's.

Jeanette didn't get a say what to watch since Ellie was still busy riding her and using her to wreck the kitchen more than it already had due to the flame thrower incident. Eleanor was too busy to even watch a film.

After awhile, though, Alex gotten pretty tired for some reason while the films played as he laid down on the couch and tried to get some afternoon shut eye. As he snored sleepily with the book he was reading being used as a blanket, he writhed around in his sleep. It was the weekend so he didn't have to worry about anything like school but something did frighten him, however. Something that happened recently.

He was having another dream -the second one in a row- where Ryan had picked Alexander up by the scruff of his neck and was carrying him back to the bathroom. Alex recognised this all too well as he saw the exact same toilet he was dropped inside and left for dead. His little heart was pumping even harder as he tried to help himself and frantically try to escape. "H-Hey, lemme go!" Alexander yelled (his ability to talk clearly evidence that he was actually dreaming).

Everything seemed to be in slow motion for Alex as he looked around with terror burning inside his navy blue pools. His little heart raced so hard that he could hear it inside his ears as he felt this massive throbbing within his head.

Alex looked up at Ryan who had this look in his eyes. Those eyes were not human as they were too distant and creepy to belong to just anyone. He was horrified by Ryan's devilish smirk as he finally stood at the foot of the toilet but this time, flames and lava burst out from the inside of the toilet. The young chipmunk gave Ryan a pleading look but the teenager paid no attention and dropped him into the boiling abyss.

Alexander jolted up from his curled up position and intensely scanned his surroundings. As he sat up and looked around, the young chipmunk had noticed many things. Out the windows, there was only the black night sky and the rain pounded heavily against the window's acrylic glass and he could've sworn that he heard the rumbling of thunder coming from outside.

Alex also noticed that everyone except his Uncle Simon had fallen asleep around him in front of the television. Simon calmly placed a paw on his nephew's shoulder as he sent him a sympathetic frown, showing his genuine concern. "Are you okay, Alex?"

The dark auburn furred chipmunk Adsolent sighed heavily and shook his head. He hated having nightmares and for some reason: he had them pretty often. Everytime his memories were still fresh with these terrifying images left over from his night mares; he felt remotely depressed.

The spectacled, slender chipmunk had a very good guess of what was wrong "You had another nightmare?"

Alex gave a pathetically feeble nod as he couldn't bare to look his Uncle in the eye and he stared at the television screen which had turned static by this time.

"C'mon, kiddo. This is the second night in a row this month you had these nightmares." Simon said gently as he tried to conjure up a way to get Alexander to feel better.

Strangely enough, Alexander had this very strange sleep pattern. He would have these nightmares the first week of every month while on leap years, he only had them at the end of the year. Simon always kept a sharp eye on his older brother's son whenever he slept for now since Theo had too much to worry about and Britt and Alvin were too tired for reasons unknown. Meaning Simon was the only one capable of watching his own nephew.

It was then that Simon had an idea and suggested with a smirk "Say, why don't we have a midnight Chestnut pudding and you can tell me all 'bout it?"

Alexander's eyes brightened at the mention of his all-time favourite treat. Chestnut pudding was the key to Alex's heart and if he had the choose between a thousand puddings or to have a Pet dog, he would choose the Chestnut puddings!

Licking the corners of his lips hungrily, the young chipmunk walked into the barbecued kitchen with Simon and when Simon opened up the fridge door to allow Alex to grab a small plate with a slice of Chestnut pudding, the two walked towards the table and shared the savoury dessert.

Simon used his fork to stab a piece of the pudding before popping it into his mouth as he asked "So, what was this nightmare about?"

His nephew removed his notepad from behind his back and began to eagerly write something down. Simon and Alex sat in the darkness of the kitchen as they silently ate their nutty pudding and they enjoyed each others company. Alex considered himself lucky to have the best Uncles and Aunts in the whole world even though his family is a little crazy at times.

Once the young auburn furred chipmunk had finished writing, he showed it to his Uncle but not before shovelling up a square-shaped chunk of Chestnut pudding and popped it into his mouth and he slowly chewed as the delightful crunchiness of the nuts and damp deliciousness of the spongey pudding enlightened his taste buds.

Simon squinted his far sighted eyes at the paper and tweaked his glasses as he read the note Alexander written on "I had a memory of when I was left in that toilet to die."

The dark brown, blue wearing chipmunk gave a single nod as he understood exactly what his only nephew was going through.

"Ah, yes." The adult male chipmunk began in reminiscence "I can relate to what you're feeling right now." Simon sighed as he looked down at his lap "I too was almost drowned in a toilet on my first day."

Alex seemed shocked to hear this since his eyes went wide as soon as he heard his uncle say those words. Simon understood this reaction and couldn't help but chuckle lightly "Heheh. Yup, I was actually dunked in a toilet by Ryan after Alvin angered him. But Alvin saved me from drowning."

Alexander began to write something else down as he shown what he had wrote to Simon in a matter if mere moments "What have I done, though, Uncle Simon?"

Simon merely shrugged in response but smiled anyways "I dunno, kid. I really dunno." He instantly reached over before locking Alexander's head in his arm before giving him a noogie as he laughed with this passion "But you'll take on anything in you're way, won't cha pal?"

Alexander would have been laughing if he had a voice and this was one of those proud moments in his life when he was glad to be himself. Nothing could stand in the way of Alex's amazing family and he wasn't going to let anything bad happen to them.

But little did he know was that something bad was lurking and was going to strike very soon like a Cobra.

A/N: This chapter was inspired by Wolfblue's suggestion. Sorry that this chapter was a short one. I just thought it would be cool if I uploaded two chapters today. I also thought I'd try and up Eleanor's funny moments.

I would have made this the fourth chapter but I wasn't able to read the review until this morning, I'm afraid. Glad I got this sorted, though.

What do you guys think? If you have any suggestions then feel free to let me know in your review. Also, I'll post up a poll on this story. You might want to check it out.

I'll try and update soon!
