Disclaimer: Plot belongs to me. Cats doesn't.

A/N: I've thought about it and I figured that a Cori/Teazer fic would be interesting to write. We need more uncommon couples on here! Plus, isn't it true that opposites attract? It was really only a matter of time...Whatever, enough with my randomness! Please enjoy the chapter, and don't forget to R and R!

It was summer. The hottest season of the year. The season when everyone wants to do nothing but laze around because it's so hot. That made today a lazy, hot, summer day. That meant it was the perfect day for sunning on the Great Tire.

Rumpleteazer rolled onto her back and let her head hang over the edge of the tire as her brother Mungojerrie did the same. Although it was hot, it wasn't a muggy day. A cool breeze blew throughout the Jellicle Junkyard and ruffled the cats' fur every now and then.

The calico queen nudged her brother. "'Jer? Whot do ya wont ta do today? We've been sunnin' fo' the 'ole mornin' an' Oi'm bored as 'ell. Wont ta go 'untin'?"She asked as she shifted her head to look at him. He had his eyes closed and it didn't even look like he heard her.

'Jerrie eventually opened his eyes and yawned. He rolled over again so that he was right-side up and eyed her sluggishly. "No thanks, 'Teaze. Awll Oi wont ta do is sleep. Ya can go boiy yaself if ya wont ta. 'Ave fun."He drawled as he arched his back and laid his head down on his paws. He didn't go back to sleep, though.

The calico queen let out a frustrated sigh. She hated having nothing to do! She looked around and spotted two cats walking across the far end of the clearing. Coricopat and Tantomile. An idea suddenly popped into her head and she smiled mischievously as she quickly rolled onto her stomach. "Oi 'ave an oidea! 'Ow 'bout we play truth o' dare?"'Teazer clapped her paws excitedly at the thought of pulling pranks on her brother.

Her calico brother seemed to catch onto her enthusiasm as he picked his head up and pricked his ears towards her. "Oi nevah was one ta pass up a game o' truth o' dare. Ladies first, 'Teaze. Tha's assumin' if ya ah' a ladeh an' not a tom-kit."He smirked as his sister scowled at him.

"Ya're disgustin', Mungojerrie. Truth o' dare?"She narrowed her eyes angrily at him. "'E's gonna ge' it eithah way."She thought as her brother tapped his chin thoughtfully, weighing his options.

"Dare."He replied confidently.

'Teazer rubbed her paws together evilly. "Good choice, deah brothah. Oi dare ya ta..."She looked around for something embarrassing for the tom to do. She spotted a pail of something surly repulsive that probably came from some human restaurant's kitchen by a nearby trash pile. A menacing smile creeped its way up her face as she glanced back at her brother. "Oi dare ya ta sample tha' kitchen slop. An' not spit it ou'."She said smugly as 'Jerrie's eyes widened in horror.

Nevertheless, the tom nodded and slid off the tire. Just as he reached the ground, 'Teazer noticed some of her friends walking by. "This couldn' ge' aneh bettah! Tha'll teach 'Jerrie not ta mess with moi!"She thought as Jemima, Victoria, and Electra slowed their pace to see what Mungojerrie was doing. 'Teazer watched with growing satisfaction as her brother dipped a finger in the pail and turned to face her with Everlasting Cat-knows-what on it.

Mungojerrie raised an eyebrow as he put his finger in his mouth and licked off whatever was on it just as Jemima gagged, Victoria gaped in disbelief, and Electra's eyes bugged out in disgust. All three walked swiftly away as the calico tom waved at his sister to show her a clean paw. He walked towards her and hopped up onto the tire.

Rumpleteazer smiled. "Oi'm impressed. Ya do realoize ya jus' severely 'urt ya' chances o' gettin' a queenfriend, roight?"She asked non-chalantly as 'Jerrie shrugged in response.

"Oi don' realleh care. Oi don' wont a queenfriend roight now anehway. Truth o' dare?"He asked as he inspected his claws.

The calico queen quickly answered, "Dare." Whatever 'Jerrie had in mind couldn't be much worse than what she put him through, right?

'Jerrie smirked as he surveyed the clearing. There wasn't really anything unusual to make her do, much to his displeasure. Just the Rum Tum Tugger walking by, alone. "Wait, whot?"The calico tom thought as he took a second glance. Sure enough, the Maine Coon didn't have any queens attached to him, which was a rare sight. He had his perfect dare now. "Oi dare ya ta kiss Tuggah."He was surprised to see that his sister kept her cool. "Hurreh, before ya miss ya' chance!"He added in a sing-song voice, pointing to the tom.

'Teazer cocked her head at him. "Lips o' cheek?"She asked as she stood up. She stepped off the tire and turned around to meet his eyes. They gleamed with amusement and nothing short of revenge.

Mungojerrie pursed his lips in thought. "Whotevah suits ya, deah sistah. Ya ge' a freebie if ya kiss 'im on tha' lips!"He laughed as 'Teazer walked off towards Tugger.

"Ya ah' such a queen, 'Jer! It's no wondah ya don' 'ave a queenfriend!"Rumpleteazer retorted, only to get more of her brother's laughter as a response. "Oi can't believe 'e talked moi inta this!"'Teazer thought worriedly as she caught up to Tugger. She tapped him on the shoulder and gave him a quick peck on his cheek as he turned around to face her. With her dreaded task finished, she stepped back to walk away, but the Maine Coon had other plans.

Tugger, being well, Tugger, couldn't leave it at that. He smirked and wound his arm around 'Teazer's waist before she could turn around. Not used to the intimate contact, 'Teazer immediately stiffened as he held her close and smiled down at her.

"Where do you think you're going, 'Teazer? I knew you couldn't resist me for long! What made you change your mind, huh?"Tugger purred as he leaned in for another kiss. When all he got was a suppressed squeak in response, he decided to ask another question. "Quiet today, are we? Is it gonna be my den or yours?"

'Teazer's eyes widened at the implication of his question. "Ew! Gross! Ge' away from moi ya creep!"She shrieked as she pushed herself away from him while managing to knee him in the shin. She took off at sprint in the direction of the tire. She didn't look back to see Tugger's pained and confounded expression as she gathered speed for a new objective in mind.

'Jerrie was doubling over and laughing hysterically at the product of his dare. He was clutching his abdomen in laughter just as he felt someone take a hold of his shoulders and repeatedly slam his upper body hard on the tire. He quickly fended off his enraged sister as he took a hold of her paws and pried them off.

"Tha' was the funniest thin' Oi've evah seen! Ya shoulda' seen ya face, 'Teazah!"He said between gasps for air as he calmed himself down enough to poorly imitate his sister's previous mortified expression. 'Teazer couldn't bring herself to hold a grudge against her brother, no matter what humiliating things he did to her, and quickly calmed herself only to join in with his laughter.

The moment gradually subsided and it was now 'Jerrie's turn. 'Teazer smiled as she asked, "Truth o' dare, 'Jerrie?"She quickly came up with devious questions for both as her brother thought carefully about his answer.

"Umm...Let's go fo' truth this toime. Somethin' differen'."The calico tom answered.

"Awlroight. Is it true tha'..."'Teazer glanced around for inspiration. There were a few cats about; for example Coricopat and Tantomile just sat in the shade of a trash pile, and Pounce and Tumble were play-fighting. Her eyes rested on Tanto and she smirked. "Ya 'ave a crush on Tanto?"'Teazer raised an eyebrow at her brother, whose expression remained unreadable. She expected him to be at least somewhat uncomfortable, but he just stared at her with a bored look on his face. 'Teazer's satisfaction was quickly decreasing.

'Jerrie shook his head disappointedly. "Realleh? 'Ow predictable. Isn' tha' the firs' question evreyone asks when playin' this game? "Who do ya 'ave a crush on?" Stupid question, Oi say..."

'Teazer pouted defensively. "No it's not! It's a good question! An' it's not ya turn, so ya don' ge' ta ask yet! Answer it!"She exclaimed as 'Jerrie rolled his eyes at her.

"No. Oi don' 'ave a crush on Tanto. Truth o' dare?"The calico tom said in a flat voice.

Rumpleteazer sighed in defeat. "Foine. Dare."She drawled, imitating her brother's unenthusiastic tone.

The corner of 'Jerrie's lips twitched as he came up with a dare. "Oi dare ya ta ask Coricopat ou' on a date an' 'ave 'im say yes under 'is own powah'. No broibes an' no threats."He said with narrowed eyes.

'Teazer looked at him in utter disbelief. "The Coricopat? Ya mus' not mean ah' Coricopat, roight?"She chuckled nervously. Truth was, she was just about as useless at flirting as a fish in the desert; and 'Jerrie knew that perfectly well. To make it worse, Coricopat was one of the most unapproachable, if not the most unapproachable, tom in the entire junkyard! This was going to be a very difficult dare.

Mungojerrie smiled at his sister's hesitation. "No, Oi mean the Coricopat tha' lives on St. James' St.; o' course Oi mean ah' Coricopat! Ah' ya chicken?"He teased as the calico queen crossed her arms over her chest indignantly.

'Teazer turned her nose up at him as she stood up. "No way! Oi can take a challenge!"She huffed as she started making her way towards where the psychic twins were sitting.

Her brother shook his head after her. "Peer pressah nevah fails...This should be good."He thought as he watched the calico queen walk farther away from him.

When 'Teazer reached the place where Cori and Tanto were, they both glanced up at her with their usual unemotional expressions. 'Teazer tried to smile politely as she crouched down to their level. She opened her mouth to say something, but Cori quickly interjected.

"The answer is no, Rumpleteazer."The psychic tom said bluntly as Tanto pursed her lips in thought.

'Teazer looked surprised. "Ya didn' even know-"

"Yes we do. Did you forget we're-"Again, Cori interrupted her.

"-psychic? We can read minds and foresee-"

"-the future. We also refuse to participate in your kittenish games."Cori sighed.

'Teazer looked slightly taken aback at that last statement. "An' whoiy not?"She asked in an almost whiny tone. She couldn't help it; she wasn't used to being up-handed like that.

"We're too mature for that. Leave us out of your schemes and go away."Cori answered as he and Tanto raised an eyebrow. They fell silent for a few moments as they glanced from each other to the calico queen in front of them.

'Teazer waited somewhat impatiently as she wondered what they were talking about. Finally, she heard Cori sigh exasperatedly while Tanto smiled. They looked to 'Teazer who waited eagerly for their reply.

"Tanto tells me I'm too uptight and that I need to loosen up. She also tells me I was rude to you and that I should make it up to you. If it's all the same to you, I will comply with your...dare as my way of apologizing. We'll meet at your den at sundown."Cori said in his usual flat voice, but 'Teazer detected a hint of distain and sarcasm in it. She could tell this wasn't going to be an easy date, let alone enjoyable.

Nevertheless, she nodded politely at him. "Thanks, both o' ya. Oi'll make it worth ya whoile, trus' moi Cori."'Teazer promised as she stood up to leave. As she was walking away, she could have sworn she saw him roll his eyes in her direction.

'Jerrie stared at his sister expectantly as she climbed back onto the tire. "Well? Whot did 'e say?"He asked as 'Teazer sat down.

'Teazer smirked at him. "Cori said yes...with a lil' 'elp from Tanto..."She said as 'Jerrie's brow furrowed.

"Do ya remembah the conditions? 'E has ta say yes undah 'is own powah! 'Elp from 'is sistah doesn' coun'!"He exclaimed as 'Teazer chuckled a bit. "Whot? Did Oi forge' somethin'?"He added, confused.

"Yes. Cori did say yes boiy 'imself. 'E an' Tanto ah' practicalley the same cat! An' Oi didn' cheat. So it's valid."'Teazer smiled as her brother flung his paws up in the air in defeat.

"Ugh, foine. Bu' we still 'ave ta see whethah o' not ya' will go through with it."The calico tom smirked, but frowned as he heard his stomach growl with hunger. "'Ow 'bout tha' 'untin' trip, 'Teaze? Oi'm 'ungrey."He offered as he crawled off the tire and started searching for rodents.

'Teazer smiled to herself as she followed her brother. "Sounds good ta moi. Oi was gettin' bored o' tha' game, aneyway."She replied as she sniffed around for any sign of mice or rats.
