Chapter 14: Super Simon to the Rescue!
Meanwhile, Dave had taken the load of laundry upstairs where Jeanette and Eleanor were waiting for him by the bedroom door. They all helped put away clothing and since there was a lot of it, it took them a while for the laundry to be put away. Alvin, Brittany, and Simon also came upstairs after finishing their chores. Simon knew exactly what he wanted to do; he grabbed his super hero costume, went into the bathroom to change, and came out wearing his super hero costume, while holding his blue sweater in his paws. Simon put his blue sweater on his bed before showing the others his costume.
"Wow! Cool costume, Simon!" Alvin complimented. Simon smiled at his brother before replying: "Thank you, Alvin. By the way, has anybody seen Theodore?" Dave looked at Simon and answered: "Theodore is in the basement folding a bed sheet. Could you go check and make sure he's okay?" Simon nodded, and then headed for the basement. After Simon got to the basement door, he called out: "Theodore? Are you down there? Are you alright?" Simon waited, and then heard a murmuring sound. This made Simon nervous, and he asked out loud: "Theodore? Theodore, is that you?"
Another murmuring sound was heard, Simon had a feeling that something was had happened to Theodore. Simon ran down the stairs to the basement and looked around. Soon, Simon saw his bed sheet covered chipmunk brother struggling to get out of the bed sheet. Simon gasped at what he saw.
"Ah! It's a ghost! …Theodore! Oh my goodness!" Simon cried out in shock. As Theodore struggled under the bed sheet, he heard Simon, and replied: "Simon? Simon help me! Get me outta here!" Simon gasped again as he said: "Oh my goodness; the ghost has Theodore! Hang on little buddy! Super Simon is here to save you!" Simon ran towards his bed sheet covered brother to save him, but as he did, Simon accidentally ran right into the bed sheet, tripped, and got stuck under the bed sheet too.
"Ahhhhhhh! Help! I can't see! I-I'm stuck! The ghost's got me! Somebody get me outta here! Help!" Simon yelled also struggling to get out of the bed sheet. The bed sheet covered chipmunks tried to get out, but so far, every attempt was futile. They couldn't get out.
"S-Simon? What are we going to do? We need help!" Theodore stated while they both continued to struggle under the sheet. The two chipmunks stopped for a moment, and then cried out: "Dave! DAAAAAAAAAVE!"
Fortunately, Dave was heading down the stairs when he heard them. Dave ran to the basement, down the stairs and into the basement itself.
"Simon?! Theodore?! Where are you?!"Dave asked in a concerned voice looking all over the place.
"Help! Unhand me and my brother you ghost!" Simon cried out from under the bed sheet, trying to get out.
"Help! Help us! We're stuck!" Theodore screamed struggling to get out of the bed sheet.
Dave saw his bed sheet covered sons and exclaimed: "Simon! Theodore!" before helping them get out of the bed sheet. Once Simon and Theodore were out, they looked each other, and hugged; they were so relieved to not be stuck the bed sheet.
"Simon? Theodore? What happened? I thought you were folding up the bed sheet?" Dave asked wanting to know what was going on. Both of the chipmunks explained what happened, and when they finished their story, Dave understood.
"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, you're not in trouble. It was an accident. How about you two go play, and I'll fold up the bed sheet. I don't want either of you getting stuck under it again!" Dave explained, making Simon and Theodore laugh. The two chipmunks then left as Dave prepared to fold the bed sheet. Simon and Theodore went to the living room, and sat on the couch.
"Well, at least we don't have to worry about getting stuck under a bed sheet again!" Simon stated as both he and Theodore giggled.
"Yeah. It's too bad we both got stuck under it. But still, thank you for trying to save me Simon," Theodore replied giving Simon another hug. Simon hugged back and replied: "Your welcome, Theodore. Anytime, little buddy! Anytime."
