The Chipmunks Go To The Movies - the Wizard of Oz!

[Cartoon-verse]

(Because I wanted to do a parody but couldn't think of one… and yeah.)

I read this funny oneshot parodying the Wizard of Oz by JMS135- go and read that one too!-, and I wanted to do a parody too. So I looked up movies they hadn't done in
"The Chipmunks Go to The Movies" and couldn't find any very easy concepts in movies I had seen before... So I'm doing the Wizard of Oz too... I'm trying to make it different than that fanfic though because I don't want to rip off someone else. So far it's not that long but I'll get there (I hope).

Also I love the Wizard of Oz (like most people). And I don't know, parodies just seem like fun.

Okay so I haven't written for this fandom since I was like eleven so... I'm very rusty on all the characteristics and whatnot. So sorry if it's not that in-character.

And obviously after this chapter it won't be very original... I'll try to add things in here and there but it's a parody- what are ya going to do?

Disclaimer: Obviously a teenager cannot possess ownership of Alvin and the Chipmunks... soooo yeah.

Chapter One

"Eleanor! Jeanette!" Brittany happily called out to her sisters as she entered the house.

"What is it Brittany?" Eleanor asked from the couch.

Jeanette raised her head from her book.

Brittany came into the living room where they were at and placed her shopping bags on the coffee table. "Guess what I found at the mall today?"

"What?" They asked in unison.

She reached inside one of the bags and pulled out a long, pink velvet box. Brittany opened it, placing the lid on the table. She held the pair of objects in proud display.

"Shoes?" Eleanor asked, wondering what was so special.

"Not just any shoes. These are limited edition, glittery red shoes!" she announced.

"Hey… Those are like the shoes Dorothy wore in the Wizard of Oz movie!" Jeanette realized, admiring the sparkly ruby shoes.

"Exactly!" Brittany nodded, eyes wild with excitement. "And Halloween is coming up… And I am going to be Dorothy, and will win the costume contest!"

"How much did they cost exactly?" Eleanor raised an eyebrow suspiciously.

"Oh you know… Just 99 dollars and 95 cents." Brittany replied sheepishly.

"Brittany!" Her sisters yelled in disbelief.

"Miss Miller is going to kill you!" Jeanette said in worry.

"No she isn't – I used my allowance for these babies. I didn't steal – err – borrow her credit card like last time… Well I did but-" Brittany explained.

"What's all of the commotion about?"

The Chipettes' heads turned at the sound of their guardian.

"Miss Miller!" Brittany gasped, quickly regain her composure with a smile. "I uh – heh-heh –, I bought these new shoes… Aren't they pretty?"

"Why yes dear they are very lovely… Now how much did all of this cost?"

"Oh… in total? 193 dollars and 9 cents."
Miss Miller gasped. "Brittany!"

"B-but you don't have to pay my allowance for another four months – that will make up for it, right?" she suggested.
"But Brittany, we don't have that money right now… I'm afraid you'll have to return the items." Miss Miller told her.

"Noooooo!" Brittany hollered, head in her hands. "If I return these shoes – not to mention the entire outfit –, then that awful Judy Garlank will buy the costume and win the costume contest as Dorothy Ga-ale…!" she moaned in melodramatic agony, falling on the ground.

"Now Brittany, fussing and complaining won't make the money appear out of nowhere." Miss Miller scolded her. "If you keep that on, then I'll send you to your room and we'll return the clothes right away."
This got Brittany to cease her tantrum, as she stood up and brushed herself off. "Sorry Miss Miller."
"That's all right dear. Now if you'll excuse me I need to go and get dinner ready." She went off into the kitchen.

Eleanor shook her head. "Brittany I know that you want to win the contest but… whining about it won't help anything."

"I know Ellie but I just got to win that contest!" Brittany explained in determination.

"Brittany…?" Jeanette spoke up.

The other two turned their heads to her. "Yeah Jeanette?" she raised an eyebrow.

"I-If you want I… I can help pay for the clothes… I might not help much but, I've been saving my allowance and I have 100 dollars," she offered quietly.

Brittany's eyes lit up in utter excitement. "Oh thank you Jeanette! You're the best sister ever! Excluding Ellie of course… Thank you thank you thank you!" she grinned, hugging her sister tightly.

"Y-you're welcome Brittany." she managed, sighing a little. "You'll have to pay me back though… I was hoping to spend the money on a few new novels…-"

"Oh don't worry about it Jean, I'll pay you back as soon as I get the money." Brittany assured her, separating from the hug. "Okay, I have got to try this costume on!" she squealed, heading upstairs to the girls' bedroom.

Eleanor shook her head in amusement at Brittany. She then looked over at her remaining sister. "Jeanette she's not going to pay you back."
"I'm aware," she simply said.

She sighed. "Then why are you offering to pay for half of her stupid costume?"

"Because she's my sister and needs my help." Jeanette insisted.

"Help is one thing – money is another."

"Ellie… This contest means a lot to Brittany… It would kill her if Judy won."

"But Judy's nice and deserves to win! She has an uncanny resemblance to the 1939 actress you know." Eleanor reminded her.
"I know she does, but… Brittany's my sister… I don't like seeing either of you upset and this is no exception. And when she doesn't pay me back… Well I'll just have to grin and bear it Eleanor." Jeanette explained.

"You're so kind-hearted Jeanette." she smiled, reaching for a hug.

Jeanette met her hug with a smile of her own. "Thanks Ellie."

…~...~...

"Jeanette! Eleanor!" Brittany yelled.

"What Brittany?" Eleanor called back.

"Come up here and look at my costume!" The two sisters could hear the excitement in her voice.

"Coming!" Eleanor assured her.

The two went up the stairs and into their bedroom.

Brittany grinned as they came in, posing with hands clasped together at her front. "Well? What do you think?"

They studied her new appearance.

Her auburn hair's tips was curled to perfection, and tied into pigtails, each at the front of her face. Her cheeks were exceptionally pink with the recently-applied blush, and her lips were a bright red. She had a short, puff-sleeved white blouse on. A light blue and white jumper-dress with a tiny-checkered pattern was over the shirt. She had light blue socks on; Brittany's feet wore the ruby shoes she had shown them earlier.

"You look really pretty." Jeanette said softly.

"Yeah, you look amazing Brit." Eleanor agreed.

Brittany smiled, twirling around – the dress flowing as she did so. "I know! Judy's head is just gonna explode when she sees me at the contest!"

Eleanor sighed. "Well, I better go see if Miss Miller needs any help with dinner."
"Okay Ellie." she replied absentmindedly, admiring herself in the full-length mirror that hung up on the wall.

"Do you really have the money Jeanette?" she asked her sister after a moment of silence.

Jeanette looked at her, surprised. "Of course. D-do you need it right now?"

"Well yeah. I mean, Miss Miller really needs the payment."

"Brittany – can I give it to you a-after I come back from the Seville's house?"

Her eyebrow raised in curiosity. "What are you going over there for?"

"Simon asked me to study with him." Jeanette answered simply, pushing her glasses farther up the bridge of her nose.

"Oh. Well okay but hurry back!"

As Jeanette closed the door, she heard Brittany giggle madly. "Oh Judy is going to be so jealous!"

She sighed, quietly making her way down the stairs.

…~...~...

The door to the Seville's house opened and Dave smiled politely. "Hello Jeanette. Here to study for the big math test I'm guessing."
"Yep. Thank you." she smiled back as he held the door open for her.

"Simon's in the living room I think."

"Hi Jeanette!" Theodore smiled from his seat in the living room.

"Hello Theodore." she smiled back, walking into the living room.

Theodore's so nice. He must have a very big heart. Jeanette thought to herself.

"Oh hey Jeanette." Alvin muttered, eyes fixated on the TV screen.

"Hello." she replied politely.

She realized he and Theodore were playing a video game, controllers in hand.

"Hello." Jeanette turned to see Simon standing next to her.

"Hi Simon." she smiled. "So where are we going to study?"

"Um well-" he started, but was interrupted by Alvin.

"OH YEAH THAT STUPID ZOMBIE NEVER SAW ME COMING!"

Lilly, who was the Chipmunks' pet dog, whimpered at his loud voice and hid under the couch.

"Alvin, you're scaring Lilly." Simon sighed.

"A-and I agree with her. Alvin these zombies are really scary…" Theodore said nervously, squealing as a zombie hit his character.
"Aw munk up, Theodore. Why can't you and Lilly be brave like me?"

Simon scoffed. "Oh yes – you're just chock full of courage Alvin."

Jeanette giggled as Alvin shot a glare at his brother. "Yes, I am!"

He rolled his eyes, looking at Jeanette. "Maybe we better go to the kitchen."
As Alvin screamed at the game again, she nodded. "…That might be a good idea."

…~...~...

"What's 8x plus 9y if 'x' equals 4 and 'y' equals 11?" Simon asked.

"Um… that's 32 plus 99 so… 131?"

"Correct."

They had been studying for about forty minutes, going back and forth.

She smiled, flipping her paper back as he flipped his own. "What is 12s minus 12t if 's' is 6 and 't' is 5?"

"12." he answered immediately.

"Right." She flipped her paper face-down and he flipped his face-up.

"So how was your day today?" Simon asked suddenly.

"W-what?" Jeanette looked at him, surprised by his question. "Oh um… It was okay. I read a pretty good book… And Brittany plans on winning the Halloween costume contest."

"Really? It's not for another week."

"I know. But she's determined."

He shook his head. "Who is she going to be?"

"Dorothy from 'The Wizard of Oz'."

Simon chuckled. "Let me guess – she even got –?"
"–Special ruby slippers? Yep." she confirmed.

"How much did all of the clothes cost?"
"193.9 dollars."

He gaped at Jeanette. "Where is she going to get all of that money?"

"Well… she only has half of the money. And… I'm lending her the other half."

Simon looked at her in disbelief. "Jeanette, why would you waste your good-earned money on trash that Brittany's bought?"

"Because she's my sister and I should help her. What's wrong with that?" she asked in confusion.

"N-nothing's wrong with it but… She never paid you back when you lent her money in the past. Trust me I would know, Alvin doesn't pay me back either." he explained.

"I know Simon but this is important to her."
"And just what, pray tell, is going to happen to her if she doesn't win the contest?"

"Judy Garlank will, and Brittany will explode," she answered.

He chuckled, moving from the seat across from her, to right next to her. "Jeanette, so what if she doesn't win? Haven't you been wanting to spend that money on new books anyway?"

She nodded. "Yes but… If I don't give her the money she'll hate me."

"That's pretty superficial of her Jean." Simon said disapprovingly.

"I know but… I like seeing my sisters happy and – she'll be thrilled if she wins. I can't let her down."
"But she's the one letting you down." he pointed out.

She sighed. "I guess… But I don't have much of a choice."
"Of course you do." he assured her, putting a hand on her arm. "You don't have to give Brittany the money. She has a whole week to earn enough."

"How?"

He let go of her arm.

"I don't know. But you shouldn't give Brittany the money for her costume just because she doesn't have a brain smart enough to earn it herself." Simon deadpanned.

"Simon!" Jeanette said, trying to not laugh. "T-that's mean!"

"Well it's true. She can't have that much of a brain if she's relying on her much-sweeter sister for the money she wants."

"S-sweet?" she repeated, not sure she heard him clearly.

"Oh! Uh-um…" Simon stuttered, his cheeks reddening as he nodded his head in confirmation. "Y-yeah. Sweet."

"Oh… Um… Th-thank you." she said quietly, a blush forming on her cheeks.

"You're welcome." he smiled before he cleared his throat. "S-so! Um…" He went back to his seat.

"What is 96.95a, minus 25b, if 'a' equals 2 and 'b' equals 4?" Simon tried to not smirk but it showed anyway.

"Well 96.95 times 2 would be… 193.9…" she giggled in realization at what her friend was getting at. "A-and 25 times 4 is 100… Simon!"

"What?" He blinked innocently. "That's the problem on the paper."

"No it's not!" She sat next to him and examined the problem on the paper. "The paper has '21a minus 3b if 'a' equals 2 and 'b' equals 4'!"

"Oh why look at that! It does say that," he said in joking realization.

Jeanette giggled. "I'm going to get some water."

"Okay. Careful about the left cabinet though Jean – it's very loose." Simon told her.

"Thank you for the warning Simon." She stood up and went to the cabinets that held the glasses and cups.

Jeanette stood on the step-stool, and opened the right cabinet. There weren't any cups.

She tried to be careful as she opened the left one, but it swung open anyways. She gasped softly at its fast pace, but reached for the yellow cup. She got it safely and sighed, putting it down on the counter.

Jeanette got down from the stool and took her cup.

She leaned over to pour the water in the yellow cup.

Simon watched on and saw the screw in the cabinet fall out and clatter on the floor. He gasped as he saw it shaking. "Jeanette!"

She turned her head obliviously as the cabinet's door unhinged.

It fell on her head and she was knocked out, and fell onto the ground.

Simon yelled for Dave and kneeled next to her.

Luckily she had no injuries – as the corner was not the part that had made contact with her head.

But she was definitely out cold.

…~...~...

Soooooo riveting I know. (Yeah I'm hard on myself lol)

Okay let me explain some things.

Judy Garlank is an obvious parody of Judy Garland who played Dorothy in the 1939 movie.

The yellow cup is trying to be a reference to the yellow brick road... a weird reference... I'm having that "What was I thinking" moment as I type.

Simon's made-up problem (incase you didn't catch it), was showing Jeanette how crazy it was that out of 193.9 dollars she was paying 100 dollars. It was kind of like a joke... a very nerdy joke.

And sorry if Alvin seemed a little out-of-character... just now realized that.

Not ALL of the songs will be in this because I don't want it to be exactly like the movie- although none of the songs used will be rewritten sans one or two exceptions that will be obvious later...

While the characters will probably be a lot like their roles- some of their original personality will probably shine through if I can manage to do so. (I'll explain the roles and why I picked them all in the next chapter if you guys want.)

I tried to put in hints at who will be who in this but I'm not sure if they're very blunt- you can guess if you want!

One that's obvious (I hope) that I'll give away, is that Jeanette will be Dorothy (she's still herself though lol- she's pretty much the only unchanged character)... just because I don't like Brittany and Alvin always being the main characters... and another reason that will explained next chapter.

The next chapter will be up tomorrow so look out for that!
