ONE-SHOT. But usually I end up writing mulit-chapter stories for one shots.

Its set when Macavity is still in the yard, and when they are kittens.

Please read and review, I appreciate it! And reading reviews usually make me smile. :D -You want to make me smile!

Disclaimer: I will never own CATS. But if any OCs turn up, I claim them! They are mine! :P

The yard had been quiet for a first time in ages. The kitten, Macavity, had stayed inside as he was once again grounded. Grounded for something, he says, he didn't even do. The ginger kitten trailed a claw on the walls of the den, he was laid down on his bed. Silently plotting ways to escape the confinement of his bedroom, which he shared with his snoring brother The Rum Tum Tugger-who's mane had just started to grow. Growling to himself, the orange kitten threw a pillow at his younger brother.

"Shut the hell up!" He yelled, glaring at him with his wicked yellow eyes. Tugger instantly woke up and stretched out. Though, he had quickly resumed his sleep and began to snore again. Macavity had enough, he was allowed out the room, just not allowed out the den. The tom stood up abruptly and stalked out the room. He entered the living area. Usually there would be his father and some of the elders sat in here but today it was just Macavity. The tall yet slim tom sat in a brown chair near the window. He gazed through the window, watching all the other Jellicles. While he was sat in his den, which felt more like a prison, the Jellicles were prancing around without a care in the world. Though his eyes did gaze to the two mystics. To Macavity they seemed to keep themselves hidden from the rest. It was a rare sight to see them out in the open. Both mystics had their eyes closed and held each others paws. The strange way they acted was on Macavity's mind. The two cats were secretive. Well, Tantomile more than Coricopat. See, Coricopat would come out of his den to be around his close friends- Munkustrap and the kittens. But his sister hardly ever came out. She seemed scared to say the least. Macavity sighed and looked away as his father entered the den.

"Tugger still asleep?" Old D asked, his voice flat and he didn't make eye contact with his eldest son.

Macavity nodded slightly, "All the little brat does is sleep." He answered, "And snore."

"Don't call your brother a brat!" The grey tom snapped, sighing. He didn't have the energy for scolding his son, he did it way too many times. "Anyways, your grounding is over. Please go do something which doesn't involve me grounding you again." He sighed slightly. Macavity beamed and hugged his father, something that he had rarely done in his life. After he gave the hug he ran out the den, leaving Old D with the look of shock on his face. The elder tom shrugged it off and went about his own business.

Macavity stalked around the junkyard, stretching his legs. He had planned to go hunting later but needed a partner to go with. Usually he would ask Demeter, the queen was always eager to spend time with the ginger kitten. It seemed that she also had an interest in him, though Macavity didn't feel that way, he was more than happy to pretend he did. His bright yellow eyes caught sight of the queen, his hunting partner. Though, today he didn't feel like asking her. He wanted a change in style.

"Tanto!" He called as he walked up to the mystics, obviously disrupting there meditation ritual. The two cats opened their eyes in unison. Slowly they turned there heads to face each other. Macavity shuddered, how creepy. The very much similar cats nodded together and Tantomile stood up.

"I will be more than happy to go hunting with you Macavity." She answered softly. Macavity stared at her. How did they know he was going to ask that. He was thinking to, but he was going to chicken out of asking. The ginger tom ran a paw through his fur and smiled. Her voice, he had never heard her voice many times before. But her voice gave him butterflies. He gazed softly at her, smiling. "So.." Tanto spoke after a while, tapping her foot. "Are we going?"

"Yes, Yes. Of course." Macavity answered quickly. How long had he been staring at her. It must have looked creepy. He slowly extended his paw to her. Which she gracefully accepted and led him out the yard, to the hunting spot which most of the Jellicle's used. Of course, because nearly everyone went here to hunt there wasn't that much mice or birds left. Macavity sighed and got low to the ground, stalking a mouse which he had locked his gaze on. Tantomile stood back, watching the tom. She watched as the ginger cat leaped onto the poor unsuspecting mouse. The grey, small mouse struggled against the heavier tom's grip but it did finally take its last breath and fell limp. Macavity smirked and picked it up using his mouth, heading back to his partner for the day.

"Glad you can find one." She mumbled, sitting down. Her back resting against the bark of a tree. Silently playing with the long tangled grass near her legs. Macavity sat beside her, hesitantly taking her paw into his.

"Here, you can have it. I wasn't hungry anyways." The ginger tom told her, handing her the dead mouse. Tanto smiled softly and picked the mouse meat off the bone. Eating it slowly.

She finished a while later, staring up at the sky. She sighed. "I sometimes have these visions." She mumbled. Macavity stared at her, his eyes telling her to continue. "In these visions. Its where there's hardly any more mice or birds for the tribe. Staving cats, thin cats. All in the junkyard, apart from you. You are no where to be found."

"Why aren't I?"

"I don't know. I'd hate to think something happened. Cori says I get this vision because I worry too much." She sighed and rested her head on his shoulder. Macavity let out a soft purr.

"You need to relax then." The tom suggested. Tantomile nodded and smiled.

"Its relaxing out here, with you." Tantomile spoke, resting her head on his shoulder. She closed her eyes slightly, examining the tom's future. Of course I may not be true, anything could change ones future. But, Macavity's future seemed locked into place. Like nothing would change it. Tantomile had to get Macavity alone to be able to see into his future. The mystic queen kind of liked the tom she was with but never could show it. Simple reason was what his future was. The dark, criminal future he would lead. To try and take down the Jellicles. Tanto couldn't see why he hated the tribe so much, but probably because of his mental attitude he picked up a while back. The tom-kit had already wrestled with 'Teazer once, leaving her with bruises and scratches.

His future scared Tantomile a bit. She was in it, by his side. She couldn't decide whether or not the shadow figure of her in the vision was in fear or happy. Macavity looked a whole lot different, his fur unkempt. His usually alert yellow eyes, tired and dull. Though a glint of insanity grew among them. Tanto shivered in the vision of the somewhat near future. He didn't live with the Jellicles, though he did live with some other cats. Each looked as horrible and brutal as the other. What Tantomile didn't expect to see, was Jerrie and Teazer there, helping this now crazy tom. The vision of Macavity came close to her and pressed his lips to her. She gasped and opened her eyes, leaving the vision and stared at the tom.

Macavity stared at the mystic, she hadn't moved in quite a while. He began to shake her gently, nothing. She didn't even flinch. He smirked sightly to himself and pressed his lips against hers. Startling her to move and open her eyes. She didn't pull back from the kiss, nor did she kiss him back. All Tanto did was stare, stare in disbelief. Finally, Macavity pulled away, grinning to himself.

"What was that for?" She snapped, folding her arms. Macavity shrugged and pulled her back to him, somehow not wanting to let go of her. Tantomile hissed quietly and stood up. Quick as a flash, Macavity stood up and grabbed her wrist, pinning her against the tree.

Tantomile gasped as he did, his eyes showing the same insanity she saw in her vision of his future. Macavity forcefully pressed his lips against her again. She growled lowly and shut her eyes, freezing the tom with her mind. She scrambled away from his grip and ran back to the yard. The queen ran and ran. Yes, she did like the tom but she hated his thoughts. He wanted to take her away and literally make her his, never let her go. Her vision was coming true, and she didn't want that. Quick on her feet, she ran lightly into the junkyard, heading to her secluded den which she shared with Cori.

Macavity unfreezed once she was a safe distance away. He lifted his paw and punched the tree, leaving a mark. He didn't want to scare her off. He just wanted her, wanted to please himself by having her. He didn't return the yard that night, making his father worried. Instead he searched around London for something to call his own. He couldn't go back to the yard, not when Tantomile was there. Not when she would have probably told everyone what he thought. The tom knew she had read his mind, why else would she had run? He knew she liked him back. Finally, he caught the sight of an abandoned warehouse. He smirked to himself, this is where he'll call home. Maybe begin a little career. He looked back at the way to the yard. Why would the Jellicles want him? All he did was cause havoc. Sometimes get blamed for something he didn't do. He didn't really have a reason to hate the tribe, but by everlastin, He hated every living cat in that tribe. They were so fond of there rules. Now, in the warehouse he wouldn't have to have rules for him to follow. And maybe, one day he would take his queen, Tantomile. He would show her a new life, with him. An exciting life, an adventurous life.

Years had passed, no one had seen Macavity in them years. Though, Demeter would say he was there, watching. Old D just gave up on finding him, not really caring. He wasn't stressed anymore and the yard seemed much calmer and safer. Rum Tum Tugger did miss his brother but shrugged it off and went to his fanclub to entertain him. His mane had grew and now was the most popular tom in the yard, even attracting the attention of Demeter's sister, Bombalurina. The Maine coon loved all the attention he had been received.

Tantomile and Coricopat kept to themselves still. Though, Tantomile would sometimes hang around with the other queens but keep silent. Her heart ached with no Macavity to see. It had been said that he was now a master criminal, meaning half the vision had already come true. Tantomile sat next to her brother, fiddling with her paws.

"Tantomile. I know that you like him, but can you please stop thinking about it. Its in the past, he is no more." Coricopat sighed, staring down at his sister. Tantomile shrugged.

"You didn't see the vision of his future. I'm there, Cor. I'm with him. He looks so very different. " She muttered. "He is ruining lives, and is going to ruin mine. I know it the vision I was scared, petrified." Coricopat stared at his sister before putting a comforting paw on her shoulder.

"While I live, he won't take you. You are my sister and I swear to protect you." He promised, hugging her tightly.

The yard had been quiet for days on end. Until, he finally did show up. The Jellicles were fighting off these new hench cats as the insane tom fought Munkustrap. Still, no-one actually knew what he was after. Blood lust probably. Tantomile stayed hidden with her brother yet kept an eye on the fight with her mind. Something seemed odd though, he wasn't looking for the mystic. Someone else had caught his eye.

Macavity stared as Munkustrap dropped to the floor, weak from wounds. He wasn't close to death's door, just weak. The Gumbie cat and Jellylorum sneaked over towards the grey tabby and helped to fix up his wounds. The ginger tom spat at them before looking around. Sure, he wanted to take Tantomile but her brother made that hard for him. Instead he spotted the queen he had grown up with. The only queen that used to be his friend. The gold and black queen was hiding behind a pipe, though Macavity could still see her. The insane tom disappeared and appeared behind her. From behind Demeter, he could see Tanto. His heart shattered slightly. How could he take the one he didn't even love? He asked himself over and over. Though his mind kept replying; 'Easy, snatch her and run'. After a couple on minutes of arguing to himself he grabbed the gold and black queen and disappeared into the air.

The tribe was both, angry and shocked that Macavity had kidnapped his kittenhood friend. Tantomile breathed in relief, glad she wasn't taken. The vision she used to have had changed also, instead of her it was Demeter. She did feel sorry for the young queen. The Jellicles silently walked back into the dens, wishing for their missing tribe member to returned unharmed. But that might have been too much to ask...

End! :D

As I have stated, if I get the time, this might be made into a bigger story. I know it has the potential to be a bigger and better story. But for the time being it is a one shot.

Read and review. Please. Every review is appreciated. Criticism is welcome, and I will try and take on board any advice you might give me.
