„Here we go!" a young queen gets up from her sunny place at a beautiful river side. She sat on the last green piece of grass. Beautiful and merely the age of a grown cat. She makes her way back to the smelliest place in the area ...the place she calls home. Walking slow and happy forward she´s summing a little melody which would soften every heart. She was truly happy, and a cat of luck. The day she turned adulthood her true love showed up at her home the junkyard of London. When the leader announced her as grown Member of the Jellicles. A barley older orange Tom returned after one and a half year. He had a funny Scottish accent which made her laugh in their kitten hood. In this 1 and a half year, he was away to experience the pleasure of train travels with his father , he changed so much. Before he was childish, a little under developed and yeah kinda strange in his way of behaving with the grown cats, it was just vintage. Now he was gentle, well behaved, very nice and handsome looking and still he, but even a young tom can´t suppress his inner child. It sounds very cheesy but she fall in love at his sight, and so he did as he crossed her eyes. Not even two weeks later they announced their mating, everyone was kind of shocked but they weren't really concerned as the adults saw how happy they were.
And now 3 months later there was more that is going to make her and Skimbleshanks, her mate, even happier. And that's the reason she were sitting at an beautiful late October day all alone at the river to dream of the promising future she is going to have. With her loving mate and the kitten struggling in her womb.
It was too early that her body showed what she felt. And so no one else knew it at this moment. But she already had the right words in mind, how she would announce it to Skimble. He would do plenty of somersaults. And she giggled about that image.
On her way back another thought crosses her mind. Her little kitten would play with the youngest of the tribe . At first the a half year old silver tabby named Munkustrap, he was the son of their leader Old Deuteronomy and his mate Grizabella. She thought of the charmed smile he gives her every time she looks at him and how handsome he will get … if her kitten will be a girl she would her to mate up with him when they are grown. And there are even two kittens on their way, one were Jellys and the other one was of Alanata she was a white queen who was abandoned of her former tribe because she mated without permission with an other tribes Tom ...and this guy were a Jellicle, Ferro a black and gray patched tom.
Anyway the main topic was to tell her mate about their kitten.
She walked through the entrance of the junkyard as she heard a loud sob of a voice she recognized . As she made her way to the center every cat of the tribe were standing around a crying young beautiful queen ….it was Grizabella . At first Jenny didn't understand what this hustle was about but she reminded the last days when Griza was talking about how she always wanted to be famous and that Munkustrap would be in her way, if she wants to fulfill her dream.
„You are banished. And never come back again" Deuteronomy said pointing at the entrance. even with this harsh words in his mouth he surly looked broken and disappointed with his crying kitten in his paws.
She was turning her head to the entrance and walked there. Even with sobbing sounds she wanted to look full of pride . Not showing any hurt. When she was gone and everyone calmed from looking her back. Skimble walked to his shocked looking mate.
„what happened there ?"
„She was arguing with Deuteronomy about that she is unhappy in here and wants to join the glamorous world of England, and the hardest which broke Deuts heart .. wasthat she wants to get rid of Munkustrap because of him being to loud and bugging." Skimble turned his head down . And put a arm around Jenny.
„I thought she loved them" tears of disbelieve filled her eyes.
„It's OK Jenny she choose herself "Skimble looked at her „by the way where have you been love?"
Just dreaming at the river side" she smiled at him.
„About what" Skimble asked
„Something cheering what will occur soon"she turned on her heels. And left Skimbles side to walk to a little den in a pile of junk.
„What" he asked himself. And followed his mate with his eyes ...he was kind of mesmerized of her swaying hips.
After a while he realized what he was doing standing in the middle of the junkyard and followed her with a faster step.
In their den with a lot of nuzzling and cuddling he finally asked her of what she meant earlier.
„Hmm... how should I explain, I dreamed of something moving it exist by this moment, but you could also say it is still a long time till it´will become real " she smiled happily
„What do you mean. dear?" Skimble asked with confusion
She looked down with sparkling eyes „we´re gonna have a kitten soon, love"
It took some time for Skimbles head to realize what Jenny just said.
And what jenny imagined a little while ago happened, even if it was a little different.
Skimbles eyes widened and his smile was unbelievable big.
"YEAHHHHHOOO" he did a somersault. Yeah but that was a really bad idea in a little den like theirs he banged against the ceiling. But it doesn't bothered him, he was so full of endorphins, even if you cut his tail now he wouldn't feel any pain.
Then next he did was jumping up, lifting his mate while hugging her and storming out of the den to scream the message all over the whole junkyard.
Jenny, full of happiness, went out to follow him slow.
She watched the toms talking and cheering about Jen and Skimble.
"Then soon our junkyard will be full of little kittens jumping, screaming, giggling and playing around" Jenny heard a soft and friendly voice behind her
Jelly was standing there with the heavily pregnant Alanata.
"Four little happy kittens" Ala said as she supported herself at jelly.
"Maybe just three of them" Jenny looked sadly at the little gray tabby kitten sleeping in a pile of clothes.
"But he has us" the other two queens tried to cheer her up.
"well, you're right" Jen said with a slight smirk.
"I think I need to go back, my kitten wants me to lay down" Ala held her belly and showed a little pained smile.
"Let me help you dear" Jelly said and supported her on her way back
while the guys were still in their conversation jenny heard a small sound from behind the biggest junk pile on the whole yard. She walked there slowly
maybe a pollicle is trying to attack us she thought. Careful she sneaked around the corner. But nothing was there just more junk than usual and ,wait, a suspicious broken basket with a very dirty towel in it. Wary she walked on as she lifted her paw to look in the basket. Someone touched her shoulder.
"What are you doing here love?" Skimble stood behind her with a anxious smile on his face.
"nothing Skimb" she backtracked her paw fast.
"Then lets go back to the others"
They turned around and went back to the center. She didn't looked back. Not once.
