The first thing the cats felt when the light faded was bone biting cold wind and snowflakes hit their fur, making a few of them shiver instantly, Especially Elina, seeing as how she didn't have fur to protect her, and she was badly under dressed for the weather, making her hug onto Tantomile for warmth.
It was also close to sundown, and they had no idea where they were, except the fact they were surrounded by trees and snow, the wind made their teeth chatter and some of the kittens stayed close to their parents or close cats for warmth. "P-papa, it's cold..." Electra whimpered, hugging onto Skimbleshanks and hoping his waistcoat would help her warm up, Skimble hugged her back, "I-it'll be ok." he said to reassure her, her teeth chatted and hugged him tighter. "Stay calm, everycat, we'll find it!" Old Deuteronomy said, although his coat was not helping him against the freezing weather.
Just then, an orange glow came from behind them on the ground, they whirled around and saw a huge cabin with large windows and lights on in it. "Oh thank Everlasting, that's it!" Munkustrap said, they all walked towards it (They would've ran if their legs weren't stiff).
Munkustrap found the door opened when he turned the knob, and they all crowded in, savoring the sweet warmth that welcomed them in, they stared in awe as they entered the cabin, there was a large living room with several chairs, couches and tables, 3 fireplaces in different places, some of the cats crowded in from of them, hoping to get warm quickly. There was also a few staircases and several doors and halls, Elina felt if she entered one of them she would get lost in seconds.
Munkustrap took a set on one of the couches, with Demeter sitting next to him, Coricopat sat down in one of the chairs, letting Rumpleteazer sit in his lap. "So when will 'e be 'ere? Oi'm nawt tha patient toipe." the calico said, snuggling into her mate's chest, which brought a smile smile out in the psychic, "He should be here soon." Old Deuteronomy said, sitting on a chair himself.
Elina was sniffing and crawling around, whenever she was in a new environment, she felt the need to look around and explore, which got her into a jam sometimes, but the Jellicles were there to help her. But this was so new to her, she'd never been in a cabin before so she was more curious than usual, and Tantomile made sure to keep a sharp eye on her.
"Mom, what's this?" Elina called out, making Tantomile get up and try to find her, she was in the kitchen, pawing at a large white thick rectangle with a handle, there were more of these around, about three or four. "That's what we call a refrigerator, kitten." Tantomile said with a smile, making Elina tilt her head, confused and curious, she sniffed and pawed at it more, Tantomile couldn't help but smile and roll her eyes, then opened the fridge for Elina to explore more. There were all sort of things in the fridge, things Elina had never seen and it made her even more curious.
"Ah, Jellicles!"
That voice made the all whirl around and saw a man with graying hair and a suit on, he had a pleasant smile on and the sight of the man put a smile on Munkustrap's face.
"Sir Andrew."
well what'd you think so far? how's Elina gonna react to seeing a human for the first time in her life? this was short I know, but I'll make up for it!
R&R please!
