Chapter 1 of…..
My heart on fire.
Electra stared from afar at the tumbling Tumblebrutus. His messy head fur blowing around as he jumped and twirled. She sighed and turned back to her drawing of him. She was on her last year of Kitten school. In human years, she would be in eight grade. Her best friend Rumpelteazer was the only female queen that was in the same year as her. Her other best friends, Etcetera, Victoria, and Jemima were all in the year below hers.
Rumpelteazer plopped down in the chair next to her. The abandoned school, across from the Junkyard is where they learned everything they needed to learn for later on in life. "What's ya drawin?" Rumpelteazer asked. Her cockney accent filling her head. "Nothing, um, you, some humans, Elphaba!" Electra stuttered. "Let me see'et!" Rumpelteazer begged. Electra sighed. "Fine." She handed the sketch book to Rumpelteazer. Her eyes almost bugged out of her head when she saw the picture. "You 'ike Tumbleubrutus!" She shrieked. Electra tackled the little thief known as her best friend. "Shut up! I don't want anybody knowing but you and the girls!" Electra hissed. A paper landed on Rumpelteazer's head.
"What's this?" She asked. "It's a list of all the classes." Electra explained.

Rumpelteazer smiled. "Why 'es Tumblebrutus's name surrounded by hearts Electra!" Rumpelteazer giggled. "Seriously Teazer! One more word, that's not in public, and I'll tell everybody you like Mungojerrie!" Electra hissed. "You wouldn't!" Rumpelteazer gasped. "I would." Electra growled. "It's not like anybody could tell him. He graduated last year along with Mistoffelees." Rumpelteazer pointed out.
"DON'T SAY HIS NAME!" Electra hissed fiercely. "Who's? Mistoffelees?" Rumpelteazer teased. "I know 'e's going out wif Victoria, and really, 'nce you in 'our second to last year at kitty school, your allowed to date, Mistoffelees doesn't deserve you Electra, and you know it." Rumpelteazer said as she hugged her best friend. "I know, but every time I hear his name, it reminds me of what he did to me." Electra sighed.
"Oh come on! Electra! Your being WAY to dramatic!" Rumpelteazer huffed. Electra crossed her arms. "Well excuse me for being a drama queen." She grumbled. "Hello people!" Pouncival came bouncing over. "Hi?" Electra asked. "Soo, what are you guys doing over here?" Pouncival asked.
"Pouncival, if I give you some cake I stole from Jellylorum, will you leave us alone?" Rumpelteazer bargined. "Sure!" Pouncival smiled holding out his paws. Rumpelteazer grabbed her 'Loot' bag and pulled out a small piece of Black Forest Cake. Pouncival shoved it in his mouth and within two seconds he was bouncing off the walls. Literally.
