Chapter 1

The Rum Tum Tugger was bounding into the junkyard after a long time of being at his human's house. There wasn't much food around the yard for them all to live there, so the younger ones live with humans so they can get foods from there for the older cats. Tugger turned back into his Jellicle form and looked around for his mate, Bombalurina.

"Hey Bomba baby, Were are you?" Tugger called to her.

"Um, Tugger?" he turned around to face Demeter, Bomba's sister.

"What's up, Deme?"

"Um… there's something about my sister you have to know." She looked at the ground as she pulled out a crumpled letter. Tugger took it from her and looked it over. It read:

Dear Tugger

By the time you will get this I would have left England with my owners. During my most resent visit, they forced me into a cage and I was unable to run away, so I have not left by my own will. It looks like I am not coming back, and I am deeply sorry I was unable to say good-bye in person. But you should know that I love you and I will never meet another tom like you.

Your Baby Bomba

"I found it in her owner's former home when I went to see her. I'm so sorry…" Demeter placed her hand on his shoulder. His head was bowed down low, but that didn't hide his tears from Demeter. "You got to go see Jenny; she can talk to you and make you feel better."

"It's alright Demeter," Tugger's voice was cracking. "I just need some time." He ran off to his den, hoping no one would see him crying.

His den was a carpeted 70's van, that's were he brought all his queens before he settled down with Bomba just a month ago. He climbed into his hammock and tried to not to cry. He knew that as soon as he settled down with one girl that his heart was going to be broken. He knew that feeling from when he first lost his… lets not go into detail.

He couldn't hold it in, he loved her so much. When he finally began to cry again he ripped off his belt, collar, gloves, and threw them onto the floor. He tried to sleep it off, but this was hard for him since for the last month she has always been by his side.
