Disclaimer: I do not own the CATS. Andrew Lloyd Webber is responsible for the amazing movie. So I guess they sorta belong to him. I own the four new cats on the block.

Summary: Set soon after the Jellicle Ball where Grizabella has gone to the Heavyside Layer. There are two new cats, owned by some people who have just moved into the town. What will happen?

+~+~+~+

Munkustrap sighed. The Jellicle ball was over for another year, and Grizabella was gone. Jennyanydots was supposed to go the next year, and either Skimbleshanks or Bustopher Jones the year after that. Munkustrap sighed again. Then, he noticed the young girl cats walking down the street. He'd never seen them before. There were two in total. He trotted over the quiet street and stopped in front of them.

"Hello. Are you new to the neighborhood?"

"Yes." Said the first cat. "Who are you?"

"My name is Munkustrap. What are your names?"

"Munkustrap? What a nice name. I am Peepilita and this is Tigersphinx."

"Hello to you both. Come, I will introduce you to some of the other neighborhood cats. There are quite a few. Good and Bad. You must watch out for Macavity. He's a nasty one."

The three of them walked toward the junkyard, where the Jellicle Ball was held every year. Munkustrap beat an old oil drum with his front paws. One by one, the cats came out. Demeter, Exotica, Victoria, Cassandra, Electra and Etcetera jumped out of the broken back window of the old car. They sat on the trunk of the car and looked down at Munkustrap.

"Morning, Munkustrap. Who are your friends?" asked Cassandra.

"This is Peepilita and Tigersphinx. They are new in the town."

The last cat to appear from the surrounding junk was Mistoffelees. He appeared in a flash of light. Peepilita almost jumped out of her fur. "Gosh. What a neat trick."

"That's Mistoffelees, the amazing magical cat. Misto! I'd like you to meet Peepilita and Tigersphinx."

Misto bowed elegantly, with the mischievous look on his face that appeared when he was going to do a trick. He reached behind Peepilita's ear and pulled out a flower. "How very nice to meet you, you are cats of the Stevenson family at number twelve Launceston Court."

Peepilita nodded vigorously. "That's right! He got our new address right." She said, amazed.

"Indeed he did. How, may I ask?" Said Tigersphinx, speaking for the first time.

"I'm a magical cat, plus, you live next door to me." The Jellicle cats all laughed. Mistoffelees could be funny sometimes. The cats, except Peepilita and Mistoffelees went on with there business. Tigersphinx was invited to join Demeter, Alonzo, Asparagus and Skimbleshanks, who were talking about the Jellicle Ball.

Munkustrap had disappeared into a pipe. Mistoffelees looked at Peepilita and smiled. Peepilita smiled back. All of a sudden, a body of rough fur and a mane jumped beside her and she leapt back; her fur raising and her paw ready to strike. Rum Tum Tugger laughed at her reaction. Peep put her paw done and looked between Mistoffelees and Tugger.

"Who're you?"

"They call me Tugger. I'm the junkyard cat. Who are you?"

"Peepilita." Peep didn't like the look of this rough and tumble cat, Mistoffelees led her away and waved his tail at Tugger.

"Tugger, you really need to learn some manners in front of a lady."

Tugger scowled as his friend walked off with the attractive Peepilita. She was a pure black, with a white star on her forehead, and golden eyes. Tugger was looking for a mate, but none of the queen cats appealed to him. Oh there was the odd attractive one, like Demeter or Rumpleteazer. But he soon got over those crushes. He wanted something new and interesting. He had promised himself that if there were no new queen cats by the next week, he would go to the other cat-meeting place. It was much more interesting. That's when he saw her. She looked like a miniature tiger with a tufted tail like a lion. He sauntered over to the group.

Skimbleshanks let out a groan. "Sphinx, you'd better hide, Rum Tum Tugger is on the move for a new crush." Tigersphinx looked toward the cat with the mane. He was a scruffy looking character and Tigersphinx prided herself as neat and tidy. She had already made firm friends with Demeter and Victoria and Electra and Etcetera, who had come and joined in the conversation. She and her new friends all ran into the old car through the hole in the seat and sat in the trunk. It was cozy and warm. Tigersphinx liked it here. She had liked the look of Pouncival; he was polite and very funny. He had been chasing Tumblebrutus around before. But there was also Asparagus, Admetus, Mungojerrie or Plato, and of course, Munkustrap. But Tigersphinx didn't know if any of these had mates or not. She had met many of the male cats. But she still had to make up her mind. Peepilita seemed content with Mistoffelees. What was a cat to do?
