Bombalurina and Demeter were in
a dark room, with some rusty bars on the window. This was their past all over again. Bombalurina was sitting on the floor
while Demeter tried to force open the door. It was old so maybe she could manage to bust it down.
Demeter grunted as she ran into
the door. Bombalurina looked at her angrily, “As If that’s going to help!” She snarled.
“Well it’s better then
sitting on my lazy butt and feeling sorry for myself!” She shot back. It went silent as the two glared at one another.
Demeter frowned, “I’m sorry.”
Bombalurina looked at the dirty
wooden ground underneath her, “Me too.”
Demeter turned back to the door
and started pulling and pushing against it, “But we really need to find a way out of here.” She could only imagine
what Macavity was going to do to them. Soft footsteps went past the door in a hurry. Demeter banged on the door, “Hey!
Hey help!”
Bombalurina was trying not to get
made at Demeter but it was hard when she did stupid little things like that, “Do you honestly think a Hench will let
us out?”
Demeter looked over at her. She
was right. As if they were getting out of there with a henches help. She went and sat beside Bombalurina. Being even near
Macavity’s territory made her nervous so you could imagine how afraid the golden queen was.
The doorknob shifted and the queens
looked over in fear. The door creaked open. Bombalurina’s heart was pounding so hard Demeter could hear it. Demeter
was shaking and clutched Bombalurina’s hand in her own. They sat terrified as the door opened.
Munkustrap ran through the Junkyard
tripping over junk. He didn’t know where he was running or whom he was running to. He just needed to find help. Old
Deuteronomy could help. That’s perfect! He ran to the tire, praying that he could help.
Old Deuteronomy stood on the tire,
speaking to a few Jellicles. Munkustrap ran to the foot of the tire and looked up at the wise leader, “Old Deuteronomy!”
The older cat looked down at the
distressed silver tabby. “Yes Munkustrap?” Jellylorum, Tugger and Jennyanydots were sitting talking with Deuteronomy
before Munkustrap had come.
“Something terrible happened!”
He paused to take a breath, “Macavity kidnapped Bombalurina and Demeter.”
“What?” Jennyanydots
looked at him in horror. Old Deuteronomy had the same expression as she did.
“Oh nice going Mr. Protector.”
Tugger scoffed.
“Shut up!” Munkustrap
snapped back.
“Stop it!” Jenny interrupted,
“We need to focus on the queens right now.” Tugger shot Munkustrap a look, and he shot one back. Deuteronomy shook
his head at the two. “We’ll need to get them back.” Jenny added.
“I’ll go get some help.”
Jelly suggested standing up.
“No,” Munkustrap stopped
her, “I need to save them. It’s my fault.”
“You can’t go alone.”
Jelly frowned.
“That’s true, so I’ll
go with him.” Tugger stood up smiling. Maybe he could look like a hero and get Bomba to ditch Munkustrap.
“That’s very bold of
you Tugger.” Deuteronomy smiled. He knew Tugger wouldn’t just do something like that for nothing, but he didn’t
mind. Tugger didn’t usually jump up at the chance to do something for someone else. Munkustrap wasn’t too sure
he was ok with him coming. He knew how Tugger felt about Bomba, and it was Tugger’s fault that he hadn’t gone
to Bomba first.
“Alright, let’s go.”
Munkustrap gave Tugger a look. He didn’t hate Tugger before, but now that Munkustrap and Bombalurina were together,
things were different. He felt more protective over her. Tugger jumped off the tire and ran off towards the gates. Munkustrap
ran after him knowing he wanted to get there first.
Macavity stood in the doorway watching
the two queens clinging to one another. He had so much going through his mind; he thought he might as well have his fun then.
He could whenever he wanted now. He took one step and Demeter screamed. Bombalurina put a hand over the queen’s mouth.
“Shhh!” Bomba hissed.
“Why!” Demeter whispered
back tears streaming.
“Macavity loves hearing you
scream you moron! Isn’t that obvious?” She growled. Macavity continued walking towards the two. Demeter trembled.
He reached down and grabbed Demeter by the wrist. She held in her scream and took a swipe at Macavity. It went across his
nose and across his open eye. He yelled in pain and flung both hands to his face.
“Go!” Bomba screamed
grabbing Dem by the wrist and running out of the room. The two raced down the hallway and down the stairs. It had been so
long since they had been in there that they didn’t know where to go.
Munkustrap ran into the building
with Tugger right behind him. Munkustrap had stopped running and looked around the dirty warehouse. Up or downstairs? It didn’t
take long to pick once Demeter flew down the stairs right into Munkustrap. Bombalurina ran behind her and saw that Demeter
had knocked Munkustrap right off his feet.
“Bomba! I’ll save you!”
Tugger nearly yelled and picked her up.
“What? No! I don’t need-”
By then Tugger was already running with her in his arms. Munkustrap glared as he saw Tugger run off with Bombalurina. He picked
up Demeter gently and ran after him.
Macavity soon came to the doorway
and saw Munkustrap running with Demeter in his arms. Macavity glared at them through his one eye, since he had his hand over
the other. He growled darkly. Someone was going to die.
Tugger ran into the junkyard carrying
Bomba. “Tugger put me down this instant!” She snapped angrily. He slowed down and set her down gently on the ground.
“How about a kiss for your
rescuer?” He smirked.
“You wish.” She glared
at him, Munkustrap ran beside Tugger still carrying Tugger. He set down Dem and was immediately taken by Bomba who kissed
him. Tugger watched in hatred.
Munkustrap broke the kiss and blushed
at Bomba, “Perhaps… we could go elsewhere for that?”
She raised an eyebrow and smiled,
“I see your tomish side is coming back out?”
He scratched the back of his head,
“Yeah… I guess…”
“Well come along.” She
grabbed him by the collar and pulled him behind her.
Tugger growled as they left. “Jealous
Tugger?” Demeter snickered.
“No!” He yelled clenching
a fist.
Bombalurina and Munkustrap sat in
the oven talking. She was sitting with her back against the over and he was lying between her legs on his back letting her
rub his chest.
“You’re so brave Munkustrap.”
She purred, “Coming in and saving Demeter and I like that. You could have gotten yourself killed.”
“I didn’t want you to
get hurt.” He smiled up at her. She leaned down and kissed him. “Tugger’s jealousy is getting worse.”
Munkustrap frowned.
