It was hot... Too hot. The sun was beating down on England. The jellicle cats couldn't lounge about though. They had too much to worry about. Munkustrap and Rum Tum Tugger had gone on a patrol In the streets and estates near the junkyard, leaving Alonzo, Mistofelees and Coricopat guarding the junkyard. The two thirsty and tiered cats took a break under a bush in a large houses garden. The back door was suddenly slammed open, making Munk and Tugger jump. A younger woman was shoved out the back door.
"How could you lose her!" An older women shouted at the younger one. Munkustrap and Rum Tum Tugger watched the row in their cat forms from under the bush. The older woman was shouting from the conservatory while the younger woman frantically searched the garden.
"I don't think she's inside the house mum..." The younger one said, coming to a halt in her search. She stood up holding a ripped off, pink, diamanté studded collar. Munk and Tugger looked at each other and then back to the two woman. The older one ran outside to the younger one and grabbed the collar.
"No!" She screamed "how could you have let her get outside!? She's a rare purebred Neybelun all the way from the USA! A pristine show cat!" The older woman dragged her daughter inside, still shouting and screaming.
"A show kitty..." Tugger smirked. He received a sharp smack on the head by his brother. "What!? The only purebred queen in the yard is Cassandra and she's with Alonzo!" Munk shook his head.
"We need to find her" Munk said.
"That's what I have been meaning!"
"Not for you to stare at Tugger! She's a show cat so she is never outside, she has escaped and Macavity has been spotted here twice in the last 11 hours" Tugger was silent the problem becoming apparent.
"Well let's get a move on!" Tugger shouted.
Coricopat and Mistofelees sat on the tyre watching the daily goings on in the junkyard. Alonzo returned to the tyre. "Swap time!" Alonzo said. The two toms on the tyre stood up.
"See anything suspicious?" Coricopat asked.
"Nope nothing" Alonzo replied.
"Oh well that makes our job easier!" Mistoffelees smiled.
"Good point Misto" Alonzo chuckled. Misto and Cori left Alonzo at the tyre and began their walk around the junkyard perimeter. They had barley started when something caught Misto's eye. He placed his arm in front of his fellow tom. Cori couldn't tell what was wrong. Being in his jellicle form as usual he felt like he should be able to see what his shorter friend could. That's when he heard something. A small rustle penetrating the silence in the unoccupied area of the junkyard.
"There" whispered Misto pointing to something coming out from behind a junk pile. The sun shone down on the item making it shine.
"Is that a tail?" Cori whispered. Misto tilted his head and then nodded. The tail was very very long. It was covered in long, shiny blue fur. Not blue blue, blue like cat breeder blue. It was silky and shimmered in the light. This wasn't the tail of a stray, it was very well groomed. Misto pounced onto the tail, hissing and growling. The owner of the tail stood up. She hissed and glared at Misto. Cori couldn't help but gasp. The queens fur was the same stunning colour all over her body, the length only slightly shorter. She had long legs, a long tail, broad shoulders and vivid green eyes.
"What's your problem!?" She growled at Misto, bearing her sharp white teeth. Misto backed up slightly.
"Ermm I'm sorry" he finally said.
"So you should be!" She said. She flicked her tail and smoothed down her body and head fur which had been puffed up in anger.
"Who are you?" Questioned Cori, finally speaking.
"Why would that concern you?" The queen scowled.
"Because you are on our tribes territory, come with me please. Misto go and find Munk please, we will be at the tyre" Cori said, Misto nodded and ran off. Cori began walking but then noticed the queen wasn't following. She stood in the path with her arms crossed and an unpleased look all over her face. "Come on" the brown tom said. She shook her head. He walked up to her and picked her up bridal style. He then threw her over his shoulder. And began to walk to the tyre. Although he didn't look it, with his lean body, Cori was pretty strong. The queen thrashed about and struggled, growling and hissing.
"I'll scratch you! I'll bite you!" She hissed and threatened. Cori shook his head.
"No you won't" he said calmly. She was about to say something when he said "you are making quite a scene" the queen lifted her head to look about as best as she could manage. The quiet of the clearing had been shattered by the screaming, growling and hissing of the mystery queen. All of the other cats gathered in the clearing, watching the struggling queen go limp at the sight of everyone.
"I'm Amira" the queen said quietly. Cori smiled and nodded.
"I'm Coricopat" he said. When they reached the tyre Munkustrap, Tugger and Misto were already there. Tugger smirked at Coricopat. He found the image of Coricopat carrying the queen in such a manner quite strange and amusing. Munkustrap was quite relived that the queen was safe. He would help whoever she trusted most escort her home to her owners. Cori reached the tyre and placed the queen down infront of the other toms. Misto quietly cleared the other Jellicles from the clearing.
"I'm Munkustrap and this is my Brother Tugger, that tux tom over there is Misto. What's your name?"
"My name doesn't concern you" Amira said. Cori nudged her and gave her a warning glare. She let out and exasperated sigh "I'm Amira" she said reluctantly.
"Right well, we will take you home Amira" Munkustrap said, her snappy attitude reminding him of Bombalurina when she first came to the junkyard.
"What!?" Amira said.
"We are taking you home where y-"
"No!" Amira cut Munk off "I'm not going back, I don't want to be there, I want to be outside"
"It's dangerous" Munk tried to reason with the queen.
"I can take care of myself!" She growled "I'm not a kit!"
"You are a house cat though and not only that you are a show cat"
"I'm not going!" Amira growls. She looks about and then runs. She had never seen so much stuff in her life and she didn't want to go back to being trapped in a house. She was running in the direction of the neighbouring scrapyard. She turned into her cat form to get under the gate and kept running in this form. She suddenly stopped in the middle of the scrapyard for a breather.
"Hey kitty kitty, are you lost?" An unknown voice called out, shapes moving in the shadows. Four dogs emerged from the shadows, they were definitely strays. The were all the size of Labradors. They circled Amira licking their lips and grinning. "Us strays get very bored, you will provide some good entertainment" the black dog barked. There was a black dog, a golden dog, a white dog and a brown dog. The brown dog lunged forward and grabbed Amira in his jaws and shook her widely. She hissed and screamed, trying to claw at the dog. The white dog came towards her and she lashed out. She managed to get the dog in the eye. It growled and stumbled back. The brown dog dropped her and ran over to the white dog. Amira was then batted about by large golden paws. She winced, the pain unbearable. She managed to reach around and bite the dogs ankle. The golden dog then batted her over to the large black dog. He growled bearing his teeth at her. He bit down and ripped off the top of her left ear. She screamed in pain. "Shut up!" He growled. He then struck her with his large black Paw. She felt his nails cut into her from just above her eyebrow to just below her cheekbone. She couldn't hold on any longer and blacked out.
