23. Found and Hurt

Chapter 23: Found and Hurt

Once Theodore told Dave what had happened, Dave couldn't believe his ears. He never thought Simon would do something like this.

"Alright, that's it! We're going to go find Simon. C'mon Theodore!" Dave said as both he and Theodore headed downstairs. They then got their coats on, but before they left, Dave turned to Alvin, Brittany, Jeanette and Eleanor and told them: "Guys, Stay here. Simon ran away, so Theodore and I are going out to look for him! Jeanette, you're in charge while we're gone. You all behave until we get back!"

After everyone agreed, Dave and Theodore went out the front door, locked the door, and got into the car. Dave instantly started to drive, and asked Theodore if he knew or had any idea as to where Simon would be. He could only think of two locations; the school and the library. Dave decided that they decided to check those locations first before looking elsewhere.

Meanwhile, Simon was walking down the side of the road near the woods where he and his brothers used to live. Simon was literally thinking about nothing since he had nowhere to go to. The only thing he regretted was leaving Dave and Theodore, even though he had said goodbye to Theodore before he left. Simon looked around for a suitable tree, and after finding a decent looking Pine tree, Simon climbed up the tree while carrying his suitcase. Simon got close to the top of the tree, then stopped and rested on a branch.

After searching both the school and the library, Dave and Theodore left, and started looking around any other locations that they could think of. Hours passed, and with no luck, Dave and Theodore were running out of options. Suddenly, Theodore thought of one last place that Simon might have gone to.

"Dave, I just thought of a place we haven't checked yet; the forest where Simon, Alvin and I grew up!" Theodore suggested knowing that was the only other possible place where Simon could have gone to. Dave was surprised to hear this, but was also glad Theodore suggested it. Theodore then told Dave where to go, and they headed in the direction of the forest.

Soon, it started to rain and get windy. Simon tried to hang on to both his blue suitcase and the tree trunk at the same time, but after a while, he started to slip and accidentally dropped his suitcase.

"Oh no!" Simon cried out as he tried to grab his suitcase but missed. Simon watched in shock as his blue suitcase fell down from the tree, and landed on the ground. Simon froze still. Now what was he going to do?

Dave and Theodore were in the car driving down the road that went to the forest where The Chipmunks used to live. At first it was just a bunch of trees, but as they kept on driving, Theodore quickly saw something in the woods; something that was blue.

"Dave, stop! I see something!" Theodore cried out just before Dave hit the breaks to stop the car. Dave and Theodore got out of the car, with Theodore leading the way. It didn't take long until they stopped by a tree, and saw the item Theodore spotted earlier. Lying right next to the tree trunk was Simon's blue suitcase. Simon saw Dave and Theodore from where he was up in the tree and as they looked up, the two family members saw Simon as well.

"Simon!" both Dave and Theodore cried out after finding their family member.

"Theodore! Dave!" Simon called out in reply. Simon was happy to know that both his brother and adoptive father had come out to find him.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, it started thundering and getting windier! Dave hugged Theodore close for protection, while Simon held onto the tree trunk. As Simon held on, he instantly felt scared and vulnerable due to the storm. He instantly regretted running away, and Simon knew he would be in trouble for what he had done. Suddenly, Simon slipped on the wet branch and started falling down.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!" Simon screamed as he fell down towards the ground. Dave and Theodore watched in shock as Simon fell. Luckily, the tree branches helped slow down Simon's fall. Unfortunately, there weren't any tree branches at the bottom of the tree, so when Simon finally landed on the ground, there was nothing to break his fall.

Simon fell to the ground, but ended up hitting his head on a rock. Simon slowly turned his head and body to the side, waiting to receive help. The last thing he saw was Dave and Theodore staring at him with concerned looks on their faces, and as Simon said: "I'm sorry," the bespectacled chipmunk closed his eyes, and fainted.
