Once upon a time, there were two chipmunks named Bubbles and Bambi. They were both twins and they wanted to see world instead everyday looking at stinky skunks in the forest.

“Man I want move Bambi!” said Bubbles.

“I do to, but we can’t because people will scream and get crazy” said Bambi. One day Bubbles said EARTHQUAKE!!!!!!”

“It’s not an earthquake, our tree is getting cut down. Oh snap our tree is getting cut down!!!!” said Bambi.

“Oh good bye stinky skunks hello cappuccinos and lattes!!!!” said Bubbles.

“ What he said Chicago city - wow!” said Bambi.

“Wow!! This is cool!” they both said.

“That’s awesome!!” said Bubbles.

“Man that’s a huge house!” said Bubbles. “That’s the sears tower” said Bambi.

“How do you know all this stuff?” said Bubbles.

“Well while you were sitting down and watching TV. I was actually at chipmunk school. That’s how I met Sam that’s how I’m smart!” said Bambi.

“OH, But why is Sam in this conversation” said Bubbles. “I don’t know? I just think he’s cute.” So Bambi and Bubbles finally got to Chicago. When they got there tree was getting placed downtown Chicago. But they never knew except Bambi.

“Wow this is cool. What is this place?” said Bubbles.

“Well Bubbles this is actually downtown Chicago” said Bambi.

“Cool!! I can see the world from up here! OMG!!! There’s Sam” said Bambi.

“Ok you can say hi” said Bubbles.

“Ok” said Bambi. So Bambi ran as fast as she could.

“Hi Sam” said Bambi.

“Hi Bambi” said Sam.

“How did you get here?” said Sam.

“Well my tree was getting cut down and then we ended up here” said Bambi.

After awhile Bubbles came over and started talking. “I was just wondering if we can be girl back up singers?” said Bubbles.

“Well we were thinking to add some girls to the group. Sure why not. Let me just talk to the fellows.”

So while Sam was talking to the fellows time went past and finally he said:

“Al and Tad said they were ok with it but they still hade to ask Dave.” So when they said that, they ran over to Dave to ask him. A few minutes later he announced that they could join the group. Five years later they sold 189,987,349 copies of their new cd.
