Shrieks and shrills of terror rang in the middle of the night, With the cold hard wet rain slamming the ground and the wind violently throwing them off their balance. Their feet and body were covered in slimy dark brown mud.
" MAMA! WHERE ARE YOU!" A scream filled the town of a little kitten.
The mother of the kitten meowed, slightly scared " I'm right here."
" Mama I found shelter!" A little mew of a voice called out. All of the kits and cats ran to the voice and curdled up in a pile of trash covered up by a metal sheet. Perfect. But, As they were nice and comfortable another resident of the Junkyard awoke from his sleep and sniffed his was toward the unknown felines. As It was his job to look out for the Junkyard.
The unknown tall tom stood in front of them, his green eyes blazing in the dark, " Who are you?" He hissed. " What do you want?"
" I, I just would like to stay here through the night for shelter, please.. It's raining horribly and my kits cannot stand the cold and wet they would surely die.." The queen pleaded.
" How many do you have?" The tom with blazing glowing eyes questioned.
A long silence filled with the booming of thunder and the roaring of lightning passed through momentarily until the queen purred " Five, Including me."
" Oh well, stay here overnight." The green glowing eyes seemed to talk in the darkness.
As The tall unknown tom slowly walked away, The queen whispered a question " Wait a moment sir, May I ask your name?"
"…Munkustrap…"
" Thank you, Munkustrap. You have surely saved me and my kit's life's." The mother cooed.
Soon, all of the kittens were rustling around trying to get comfortable but could not as the sticky mud clung to their fur, ripping some of it out. So, Their mother licked and lapped the mud right off her kitten's fur.. And as slow as their journey they fell asleep. With the sound of thunder booming and the sound of lightning roaring pounding their ears.
In the dawn of the morning, the sun barely up, A group of tall cats gawked and stared at the newcomers. The sky was a light orange gray.
Gasps of surprise rung out in the Junkyard as every Jellicle got to see the new cats. But as one of the Jellicles, a pure white one, named Victoria saw the felines, and she was shocked.
As one of the kits opened their jaws to make a big yawn, he stopped and stared in fear as five big cats stared at his family in amazement.
" Mama?" He pushed his mother to awake.
His mother slowly woke up " What is it, son?"
" Lookie."
The mother stared at the group of cats gawking at them. She was scared and confused.
" Hello?" She awkwardly meowed. " I am Zsa Zsa…"
" Look at their fur, it's so shiny Kind of like that mirror we almost got!" A voice called out, It was that of an tiger striped calico named Rumpelteazer.
Zsa Zsa looked at her fur, what was so different from them?
A tall tom came stalking over to where Zsa Zsa and her kits were. Those same green eyes from last night, Munkustrap. He was a handsome young silver tabby.
" What's going on over here?" The silver tabby grunted.
A tall manned tom purred " What's with the new cats?"
" Tugger, In the middle of the storm last night, This mother came with her kits.. What was I supposed to leave them in the rain for they could die?" Munkustrap hissed.
A rust black calico kitten sweetly asked " What are your kit's names?
" This is Sasha and Artie." She purred as he flicked her tail at her two tom kits.
" Is Sasha a girl?" A tuxedo tom purred.
Sasha stared at the tuxedo cat and wrinkled up his nose. " No. I am a tom!"
" Now, Now, Sasha don't be rude." His mother scolded him.
" Yes Mama."
Zsa Zsa slowly stretched her body as she rose up. Underneath her tail, was a little black gray and white kitten.
"See they aren't all white!" The rust colored kit whispered to the white kitten, Victoria, who was mad because she couldn't stand that other white cats had came to the Jellicle Junkyard.
" Who is that?"
Zsa Zsa smiled " Luna.. She is named after her father."
" That is one big kitten!" Rumpelteazer called out as she pointed to the large "kitten" who was behind Zsa Zsa who had not woken up yet.
Zsa Zsa bit her tongue and closed her blue eyes " Well, he isn't a kitten, he is a full grown tom… That's Pickles."
The Rum Tum Tugger, the attractive manned tom, cocked his head " Wait, you said that Luna was named after her father.. But Pickles sounds nothing like Luna!"
"No… Pickles is gay. He isn't the father of my kits even though Artie and Sasha favor him but they get that from me… Their Father, is Midnight.."
A gray and white tom, Admetus, who heard the news of Pickles' sexual orientation ears perked up.
Pickles rolled over in the trash and trilled slightly in this throat, almost smashing Luna, who let out a little squeak as the chubby tom rolled over on her.
" Mama!" Luna cried out in pain.
Zsa Zsa licked her tail " Come here, dear."
The black and white queen kit flicked her tail and trotted to her mother.
Soon, all of the Jellicles returned to their everyday life. All they were doing is gawking the four visible white cats, that amazed them with their coat of white.
" Mama." Sasha sadly mewed.
" Yes Artie, I mean Sasha?"
The white kitten slowly blinked " I miss Pharaoh and Achilles."
" I do too…" Zsa Zsa closed her eyes and remembered her two other sons who had died from FKS, Fading Kitten Syndrome when they were young kits. " Don't worry, They are up in Heaven with your Aunt Saboo and your cousins Rufus Anne, Skunk, Guts and Daffodil. They are happy up there and very healthy. Don't worry, you'll see them again when you die, then it's all worth living just to see the ones that have passed on."
Sasha smiled " Thank you, Mama… But why did they have to die? I loved them.. Especially Achilles he kept me warm at night. Then he just died when I woke up."
" I know son.. I know. I love them too! But be happy you are alive, it could have been you or Artie or Luna who died! I pray to Heaven in joy that I still have you three."
A calico kitten called out " Artie! Sasha! You want to come and play with me and my friends?"
Sasha dashed off to the calico, Artie on the other hand did not.
The pure white kitten looked at his mother " Do I got to?"
" Yes, Artie. Now go."
The white kitten slowly walked to his brother and new friend.
" I'm Pouncival." The calico ,who asked them to play, purred " Is your name really Sasha? Like a queen's name?"
Sasha's ears jerked back as he hissed " No. Sasha is actually a tom's name too!"
" What does it mean? Because my name, Pouncival is like Percival but with Pounce at the beginning, I'm named after my uncle on my mom's side, Percival." The calico said quickly and licked out his tongue in exhaustion.
" Sasha is Russian for a form of Alexander!…. My name was going to be Xandir but, Mama wanted to name me Sasha… Which is kind of like Xandir?" The young tom kit stood in confusion.
Pouncival smiled politely " Ummh. Okay… What about you Artie? How did you get your name?"
"…. Well….. Umm… Momma liked my name, Artie.. So my name is Artie.." The fat white kitten mewed shyly.
" Okay.. Do you have any other brothers… or sisters?" The kitten with a patch of brown across his eye smiled.
Sasha looked at the ground, still slightly wet from the storm last night " Well, We Did have two other brothers, Achilles and Pharaoh, but they were too weak to live.. So they died."
" What about that big fat white tom? What about him what is he to you?" Pouncival sat down, his tail still waving eagerly.
"… He is Momma's nephew.. Sooo I have no idea what he is to us."
The calico nodded " Let me introduce you to my friends!" He beckoned the two brothers to follow him.
" That's Tumble, That's Plato and That's Mungojerrie." Pouncival pointed to two calicos and a striped calico.
Plato smiled politely. " Hello, so are you they newcomers that Jem and Vic told us about?"
" I guess….."
" Teazer told me that they were pure white! I didn't believe her but there they are plain as day!" Mungojerrie grinned widely.
" So your name is really Sasha, like the girl's name?" Tumblebrutus laughed like a maniac.
Rolling his eyes, Sasha mumbled " Again? Ughhhh! Sasha is a boy's name too! "
" Really? Explain." The calico, Plato cracked his knuckles with a devious smile on his face.
" Ughhhhhhhhh!"
That night….
Zsa Zsa was cuddled around her kittens, and Pickles when she felt the urge to go potty. She slowly got up and strolled to the dirt, where all of the Jellicles go potty.
" Zsa Zsa?" A deep brooding voice called out
" Yes….?"
" You killed my boy's! Achilles and Pharaoh! They could have been strong toms like me! But no! We were left with Sasha and Artie! " The tom hissed as he attacked the white queen.
Zsa Zsa looked away, dodging hits, " I didn't! They were weak! They couldn't live! I couldn't of done anything to help!"
" Be a better mother!" The father of her kits, Midnight scratched her across the face, making a large streak, it bled quickly. Zsa Zsa yowled in pain.
" I can finish you right now!" Midnight stood on top of Zsa Zsa, scratching her belly.
" Daddy?" A small mew peeped. It was Luna.
Midnight looked at his daughter " Luna?"
The dark she kit looked at her father, her eyes are round as golf balls " Why are you threatening to kill Momma?"
" Tell me, honey, Did your mother kill Achilles and Pharoah?"
Zsa Zsa looked at Luna with fear. Her white coat shimmering, her blue eyes wide and scared. If Luna said yes then Midnight would surely kill her, If she said no, Then what would Midnight do? Knowing Luna was a Daddy's Girl Zsa Zsa was trembling with horror, But Luna loved her mother too?
What would Luna do? Tell the Truth or Or Lie?
IT's MAY FIRST! Almost.
I'm returning from my break.
