Peace Of Heaven, Pieces Of Hell.
Chapter 1- Mates and Secrets.
It was a week after the Jellicle Ball, and 2 days after Rumpelteazer's much anticipated birthday party. Bombalurina; an eye catching red queen, sauntered across the centre of the main clearing of the junkyard, passing a number of toms sunning themselves on the TSE1, who she would usually stop and er… talk to, but then again, playing hard to get works just as well. Feeling the toms' eyes on her back, or rather, backside, she slowly entered Victoria's den, a small-ish cave under a discarded washing machine .
Bombi thought she was stuck up, always thinking herself much too important for the other Jellicles with her elegant dancing ways, but her den happened to contain her best friend, Jemima, and she had questions, and being Bombi, she demanded answers. She breezed through the entrance, passing Victoria sitting on a cushion.
"Hello Victoria, hows life with Quaxo??", she queried, not caring about the answer, "Omigosh Jemmie how are youu!!"
"Rather well thankyou." Victoria replied, rather annoyed that she was no longer the centre of attention after her little 'coming of age' thing with Plato. In her opinion, it was the most beautiful dance ever performed, and she really thought she deserved more of a reaction than she got. And of course, everyone seems to have forgotten her solo for the invitation to the Jellicle Ball. She was still stung that Munkustrap hadn't asked her to do it again next year. Well, he can just miss out.
The petite red tortie and white cat Jemima replied with a grin, while Bombi sat on the blankets beside her. "What's this all about Bomba?"
"Gah, Pounci wants to keep me all to himself nowadays, I had to see someone, and after Tugger, you are my first choice for girl talk and gossip."
Jemima grinned. "I'll take that as a compliment. I know oh so well how much Tugger loves girl talk. By the way, how's it going with you and Pounci?"
"Yeah, how did you even hook up with him?" Victoria sneered, butting her head into the conversation.
"Everything just sort of fell into place after the Jellicle Ball. It wasn't just a hook up like you and Plato, Victoria, I mean, he only wanted one thing that night." Bombi couldn't help adding the barb at the end.
"TUGGER!" The three cats stopped their bickering to listen to Etcetera try her luck with The Rum Tum Tugger.
"The Tugger has arrived." Victoria said dryly.
"Talking about the Ball, did you see Tugger?!? Jennyanydots!!! I mean, come on!! JENNY? She's ancient! Way too old for my Tugger!" Bombi cried, exasperated.
While Jemima was cracking up laughing, Victoria snapped, "You seemed to have fun with Pounci. And he's the youngest in the tribe, so you can hardly talk about age differences. I thought you were over Tugger anyway?"
"Yes I did have fun thankyou. Anyway, he started it. As for Tugger, while resisting the wine, you can still enjoy the bouquet. But hey, Jem, how did you end up with Tumblebrutus??"
"Well... after the Ball, we just sorta… Clicked. He's really sweet."
"Who cares. Is he any good??"
After a few well deserved slaps, Bombi started again.
"Everyone's like, together now after the ball… Me and Pounce, You and Tumble, Her and Quaxo, Munku and Demeter, Cassandra and Alonzo, Electra and Admetus, Skimble and Jenny (Thank god she didn't last with Tugger!), Jelly and Asparagus Jr., Tanto and Coricopat, well they're just WEIRD, coz aren't they twins? Mungo and Rumple…ahem…. Tugger, Etcy and Plato are the only singles left. Another thing, did you see The Magical Mr Mistoffelees' dance? I wonder if the magic helps..?" She tacked on as an afterthought.
"No WAY! Quackies' mine and he'll NEVER leave me for a slut like you!" Victoria screamed.
"How do you know he hasn't already…Maybe you don't know 'Quackie' as well as you thought…" Bombi said with a knowing smile.
At this point however, a soft knock brought them a halt in their argument. Through the entrance, a certain small black tuxedo tom said " Vicki, can I talk to you…please?"
The glaringly white (well, almost) and rather pissed Victoria spun to face him and stalked out in a huff, the little tuxedo tom almost fleeing her wrath…again.
Jemima and Bombi could still hear the conversation as the pair stood outside. Being their curious selves, they stopped to …well, eavesdrop.
Quaxo's shy little voice could be heard. "Victoria, I have something to tell you."
Victoria's substantially louder tone interrupted, paws on hips. "Maybe it's time for you to tell me some of these secrets everyone's talking about."
"So... Hang on... You already know?? So you're not mad?? Can we still be friends?"
"What in heaviside are you on about??"
"Victoria… I think we should see other people. This isn't working. Bombi is the one person who understands." And with that, he turned on his tail and ran across the junkyard, through his pipe out onto the streets.
"HOW COULD YOU BOMBI! MY QUAXO!! YOU… YOU… BITCH!"
"No wait, Vicky, it's not what you think-" But Victoria wasn't listening. She ran from the den, yowling to Heaviside, seeking solace and solitude.

*GASP!!* What's Wrong With Quaxo!?!?
Also, if your confuzzeled with the Tugger/Jennyanydots pairing, watch Jellicle ball. We got pretty much all of our pairings from there, but the sad thing is, I actually said what Bombi said when I saw Jenny with Tugger… Sorta sad..
Soo.. What do you think? It WILL get alot better, we promise, so we're sorry it's crap now. Please R&R.
