Scoundrel was sitting and talking with the two other Queens in their cell. "How is she?" Scoundrel asked as the two cats came inside. "We don't know. We dropped her off at Unique 's kitchen." Rumpleteazer said and settled down next to the Queens. "What happened to her?" Bomba and Demeter asked worried. "Well, she is badly wounded and unconscious." Rumpleteazer said. "What?!" Demeter yelled. "What on earth is he going to do with us?!" Bomba shrieked. Rumpleteazer tried to calm them down. "Scoundrel, do you know what happened?" Jerrie asked. "No, I heard some voices at the hallway, when I looked a few workers were checking if she was alive. I immediately came to you guys when I found out it was Cherry." Scoundrel answered. Mungojerrie nodded and stood up. "Teaz, are you coming?" He asked and looked at her. She nodded and ran to him. "What are you going to do?" Scoundrel asked. "We're going to ask Macavity what happened." Mungojerrie said smiling at Rumpleteazer. "What? No, what if he does that to you guys too!" Scoundrel said. "We don't care, right Teaz?" Jerrie asked and looked at her. "I wanna know what happened to her, no matter what." Teazer said bravely. "I can't stop you, can I?" Scoundrel sighed. The two cats shook proudly their heads.
Mungojerrie knocked on the door. "Come in…" The two cats heard from inside. Jerrie opened the door and walked in front of Rumpleteazer. "Look who we've got here… My bests thieves." Macavity said and smiled. "Just knock it off, Macavity. What happened to Cherry?" Jerrie asked him sternly. "Well, let's say she was too young to use… so I thought it was a shame to let such a young Queen go, so I decided to do her a offer to work for me, but as she said no I decided to let her pay for that." Macavity said it like it was nothing. "You nearly killed her!" Rumpleteazer yelled and stepped away from Mungojerrie. "Too bad, I was aiming for a dead kitten." Macavity sighed. Rumpleteazer clenched her claws and Mungojerrie looked at her carefully. She wanted to hit him, but was stopped by Jerrie. "You know… I can let that brown one and the other Queens go sooner…" Macavity said and smiled sneaky. "What do we have to do for that?" Jerrie asked suspicious. "Well, actually, you don't have to do anything… But she." Macavity said and pointed at Teazer. "Macavity, I know what you're thinking but we made a deal. You don't touch Teazer and we have to stay 2 years." Mungojerrie said and got angry too. "Jer, if this saves Bomb, Dem and Cher I'll do it." Teazer said and walked away from him. "You don't have to, we'll have enough jewels in a week." Mungojerrie said and grabbed her tail to stop her. "But what if he does kill one of the Queens before that week?!" Rumpleteazer asked and grabbed her tail back. "Teaz, I really don't want you to do this." Mungojerrie said and looked her straight into her eyes. "Why not? It's my life!" Rumpleteazer yelled resolute. Mungojerrie looked at her sadly. "Who am I going to steal with if you're his plaything?" Jer asked and looked at the ground. Rumpleteazer giggled a little and Mungojerrie smiled shyly. "So, what's the final answer?" Macavity asked smiling. Rumpleteazer turned to him. "Well, let's say…" She jumped on the table and settled right before him. Macavity started to smile. "Sleep with a Peke, pervert!" Rumpleteazer yelled, ran off the table, grabbed Jer 's paw and they both ran away.
Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer came back into the cell. "So, what happened?" Bombalurina asked. Rumpleteazer and Mungojerrie explained what happened to the little kitten. "Poor little thing… It's just a kitten." Demeter sighed. "Yea." Teazer sighed too. "Teaz, I'm going to check Unique and Cherry. Would you please stay here, in case he wanna take Bomba or Dem too?" Mungojerrie asked. Rumpleteazer nodded and Mungojerrie walked away.
"Unique, are you here?" Mungojerrie yelled into the kitchen. "Yea dear, I'm here!" She yelled from inside. "How is Cherry?" Mungojerrie asked as he walked inside. "Come see yourself." Unique said and pointed at a bed. Mungojerrie saw Cherry laying on it. She had a lot of bandages, but she was awake. "Hey…" Cherry said quietly. "How are you feeling?" Jerrie asked her. "A lot better, thank you and Teazer for helping me." Cherry said weakly and Jerrie smiled at her. "Well, after all we're your caretakers." Cherry smiled a little. "And of course… We're your friends too." Mungojerrie said and Cherry smiled more. "Really? Do you two see me as a friend?" Cherry asked weakly. "I'm gonna tell you a secret, do you promise not to tell anyone?" Mungojerrie asked and Cherry nodded smiling and giggled a little quietly. "When you were wounded, Teazer reacted like you were our daughter. Teaz even wanted to kill Macavity, or give herself to him." Mungojerrie whispered and Cherry shocked. "Did she gave herself to him?" She asked worried but flinched in pain. "No, don't worry. I stopped her." Mungojerrie comforted her. Cherry giggled a little. "You'll be great parents." She laughed. "Thanks." Jerrie laughed too. Unique came into the room with some medicines. "She has to take these once a day for 3 days. Jerrie, do you watch after her to take them?" Unique asked. "Yea, I'll take care of it." Jerrie said and nodded. Cherry tried to get up but flinched in pain. Mungojerrie quickly helped her up, not wanting her to hurt herself more. "Honey, can you carry her?" Unique asked Mungojerrie as he helped Cherry standing. "Everything for my little princess." Jerrie said and Cherry giggled a little. He lifted her between his strong and protective arms and walked to the cells.
"Can someone help me?" Jerrie yelled into the cell. The door opened by Scoundrel, who still sat inside. "Cherry!" Rumpleteazer yelled as she saw the little Queen. "Thank the Everlasting Cat your okay!" Teaz breathed. Cherry giggled a little and smiled at Jerrie. He settled her down and Bomba and Dem gave her a hug. Rumpleteazer pulled her in a hug too, but this one was way more tight. "I was so scared!" Rumpleteazer breathed worried and Cherry giggled a little. "I know, Teaz." Cherry said laughing. Mungojerrie settled down between the Queens, next to Scoundrel. "Once again thanks for everything, guys." Cherry said and looked at Mungojerrie, Scoundrel and Rumpleteazer. "You would have done it for us too." Mungojerrie said smiling. "You're sure?" Cherry asked insecure. "Of course, we're friends!" Rumpleteazer yelled happily. Cherry smiled at Mungojerrie who smiled widely back at her. "I think you're right." Cherry said and giggled a little. Rumpleteazer smiled a little sadly as she saw Mungojerrie 's smile at Cherry and hers back at him.
Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer stood next to a big house, underneath a closed window. "Teaz, climb on my shoulders and check if everyone asleep." Jerrie whispered and helped her up. "As far as I can see everyone is asleep!" Rumpleteazer yelled. Jerrie rolled his eyes and sighed as he shook his head. "Thanks to you they're probably awake." He said quietly. "What did you say?" Rumpleteazer whispered puzzled. "Nothing." Jerrie whispered quickly. "Alright, Let's check for an open window or something." Teazer whispered and they started searching. "I found one!" Rumpleteazer yelled. "Hush, keep it down!" Mungojerrie whispered. "Sorry, I'm not used to steal with someone else." Rumpleteazer whispered apologizing. Mungojerrie sighed and looked around to find a way to get to the open window. He looked at his partner in crime questioning. "Do you have any idea how we're going to get in?" Jer asked whispering. "Well, maybe. If I climb on your shoulders again, I can climb up and open the door for you." Teazer whispered thoughtfully. "Alright, I'll help you up." Jerrie mumbled and Rumpleteazer climbed upon his shoulders, again. She climbed through the window and Mungojerrie walked to the door with their socks. The door opened and Jerrie walked inside. Mungojerrie looked around and didn't saw Rumpleteazer. "Rumpleteazer? Where are you?" He whispered a little worried. "Up here!" She yelled back. Mungojerrie turned around and saw Rumpleteazer hanging at the golden doorknob. "A little help here?" Rumpleteazer asked mumbling. Mungojerrie walked underneath her and opened his muscled arms. "Just let go, I'll catch you." Mungojerrie whispered to the hanging Queen. "You're sure?" Teazer whispered back, her voice sounded insecure. "Of course I do." Mungojerrie whispered and smiled at her. Teazer breathed deeply and got her paws off of the knob. She fell down, but Jerrie could catch her on time. Rumpleteazer smiled at him as she saw his smiling face. "Thank you." Rumpleteazer whispered sweetly. "I told you I would catch you." Jerrie whispered and smiled back. Mungojerrie looked at her, this was the first time he had a good look on her. Her eyes were beautifully coffee-brown. Her smile was amazing, it made Mungojerrie happy every time, especially when she giggled. "Eh, Jer… You can let me go now." Rumpleteazer whispered a little bit uncomfortable. "Oh, sorry." Jerrie said blushing and putted Teazer back down. Rumpleteazer giggled a little of Mungojerrie 's blushing face. "Hush! They'll hear us." Jerrie tried to hush her. "Sorry." Teazer whispered and tried to hold her giggle. "Come on, let's go upstairs." Jerrie whispered. Rumpleteazer nodded and walked to the stairs. The two cats ran upstairs. "If you take the master bedroom, I'll take the little kid's room." Teazer whispered. "How do you know they have a kid?" Jerrie asked confused. "Because there was some toys in the backyard." Rumpleteazer answered simply "Alright, We'll meet each other back in the living room, okay?" Jerrie whispered. "Yea." Teazer said and nodded. Jerrie walked into the bedroom where two humans were sleeping. He jumped upon a table and saw the little box he was looking for. Jerrie putted his paw in the lock and he opened it. Jerrie quietly putted a few stuff into his sock. After he closed the box he went downstairs. Jerrie walked into the living room but Rumpleteazer wasn't there. Jerrie searched a little in the living room for useful stuff. "Hello, handsome..." Rumpleteazer came into the living room. Mungojerrie started to laugh. Rumpleteazer was wearing a pink dolls dress. She started to giggle too. Mungojerrie secretly thought she looked quite cute. The pink dress fit her perfectly and it made her face lighten up "Where did you get that?" Mungojerrie asked. "Toys, look I've something or you too." Rumpleteazer said and got a shirt out of her sock. "What? No way, I'm not going to…" Jerrie protested but Rumpleteazer already got the shirt on. "Wear that…" Jerrie sighed. "You look cute!" Teazer said and giggled as she wiped some dust off the shirt. Suddenly the lights turned on. "Damn, we woke them up!" Jerrie yelled and they grabbed their socks. Mungojerrie grabbed Rumpleteazer 's paw and they started to run. As they tried to escape, the master of the house got a grip on Mungojerrie 's tail. Rumpleteazer bit the man's hand, so he loosened the striped Tom. Mungojerrie grabbed Rumpleteazer paw again and took her away from the big human. The two cats quickly jumped through the open window. As Rumpleteazer and Mungojerrie were out of sight of the white house they started to laugh loudly. "I can't remember the day I laughed that hard." Rumpleteazer laughed. "I totally agree!" Mungojerrie laughed. Rumpleteazer got the dress off. "What are you doing, you looked pretty." Jerrie said and blushed. "Yea, I know, but I always do." Rumpleteazer laughed. Mungojerrie smiled at her, she is absolutely right. Rumpleteazer giggled and putted the dress into her sock. "I think Macavity would like it too." Rumpleteazer giggled. "I would love to see him in that." Jerrie laughed. "You have no idea." Rumpleteazer laughed. "He's not getting mine shirt, I like it." Mungojerrie said and laughed a little. "Yea, it's showing your muscles way better." Rumpleteazer said and blushed a little. "You think?" Jerrie asked also blushing. Rumpleteazer giggled a little and Mungojerrie laughed a little uncomfortable. "I think we should bring our stuff to Macavity." Rumpleteazer said as her giggle stopped. "Yea, I think you're right." Mungojerrie said and grabbed his sock. Rumpleteazer grabbed her sock too and they started to walk back to Macavity 's lair.
"Ready?" Mungojerrie asked Teazer when they stood in front of the door of Macavity 's room. "I think so." Rumpleteazer sighed frightened. Mungojerrie knocked on the door. "Come in…" They heard from inside. Mungojerrie opened the door and they walked inside. "Mungojerrie, Rumpleteazer. What do you've got?" Macavity asked as he rubbed his paws together curiously. The two emptied their socks. "What's this?" Macavity asked and hold up the dress Teazer was wearing. "Well, Teazer was wearing it and we thought you would like it, for Griddlebone or someone." Mungojerrie said. "Alright… I suppose that's the reason you are wearing something too?" Macavity asked and pointed at Mungojerrie. "Yea, I putted it on." Teazer said and swept some dirt off the shirt. "Alright…" Macavity said nodding. "Do we have enough stuff to free the Queens?" Mungojerrie tried to get the subject off. "No, not even for one of them." Macavity said and Rumpleteazer looked sad. "But you know, I can still let them go sooner." Macavity said and raised his eyebrows. Rumpleteazer looked up and Mungojerrie looked angry. "Macavity we made a deal, leave her alone." Jerrie said a little angry. "What if I don't?" Macavity asked also angry, grabbed Rumpleteazer and held his unsheathed paw at her throat. Rumpleteazer looked shocked and scared at Mungojerrie. Mungojerrie looked shocked too, and tried to find a way to get her back. Macavity started to laugh, loudly and scary, what made Rumpleteazer even more frightened. "You wouldn't even have the guts to save her from a little kitten!" Macavity laughed as he loosened the Queen and walked to Mungojerrie, claws still unsheathed. "Leave him alone!" Rumpleteazer yelled and jumped in front of Jerrie. "Look at you, a Queen has to save you!" Macavity laughed. Rumpleteazer looked angry at Macavity, her brown eyes full of anger. Mungojerrie looked at her surprised, just as Macavity. "Leave... Him... Alone." Rumpleteazer growled pressing and angry at Macavity. "Or else?" Macavity asked grinning. "Or else we tell Griddlebone what you're doing with all the Queens." Rumpleteazer said and smiled sneaky. Mungojerrie smiled at her proudly and placed his paw on her shoulder. Rumpleteazer glared happy at the Tom behind her and Macavity looked at them angry. "And do you think she's going to believe you?" Macavity asked angry. "Maybe if she sees the Queens she'll believe me." Rumpleteazer said and raised an eyebrow. "Maybe you're going to be one of those Queens soon." Macavity said and raised his eyebrows. Rumpleteazer looked at him disgusted. Mungojerrie looked angry and he grabbed Rumpleteazer 's paw. She grabbed their socks and walked out of the room.
