Jellicle Wishes
Victoria looked up at Aunt Griddlebone in horror, "WHAT?" She yowled in surprise. Griddlebone looked down at Victoria, "did I stutter? You're coming with me, back to sea with Uncle Growltiger."
Looking back at her best friends, Victoria didn't know what to say. Etectera looked as if she was ready to cry her eyes out, and Jemima let out a sniffle. Electra's eyes dropped her eyes to her feet and Mistoffelees looked at his paws.
"I-I can't, Griddlebone. I need to say here with my friends." "Don't worry about that, dear," Griddlebone said in a cheery voice. "You'll make new friends at sea. You may fall for one of Growltiger's employees!" Victoria felt tears come to her eyes and she ran to her mother, "Don't make me go!" She whispered collapsing in Cassandra's arms.
"I'm sorry, baby, but this is what your father and I want for you." She murmured. "But I don't want it for me!" Victoria sobbed, "I want to stay here with Jemima, and Electra, and everybody else!" Cassandra looked at her mate, with sorrowful eyes and looked back down at her daughter.
"Victoria," Alonzo meowed, "this is the life we always wanted. Now you have the chance to go at your life. Go see the world. Now go get ready, you're leaving in one day." "One day?" Victoria squeaked, "one more day to say goodbye to everyone I know and love?" Cassandra sighed and pushed her daughter away. "We will never forget you, baby. You have to go live your life to the fullest. Now go."
Sobbing, Victoria walked back to her friends. "Your… leaving us?" Etectera asked, her eyes overflowing with tears. Victoria nodded and let out a huge gasp for air, "yes." She cried. Jemima gave Victoria a hug and started crying herself. "This is a great opportunity for you," Jemima murmured, "I think you should take it. You could do far more better than us."
"No one could ever replace you guys." Victoria whispered. "I love all of you." Then her eyes rested on Mistoffelees. He looked as if he was going to burst with sadness. "Oh, Misto!" She cried, throwing her arms around his neck, "Quaxo." She sobbed. He returned the hug and let out a small sob himself. "I'll miss you the most!" She cried. "I'll miss you too, Vicky," Mistoffelees whispered. "Oh, Quaxo!"
