Hello, loyal readers! Here is another exciting chapter! Sorry if the beginning is kinda slow. I was a little sleepy when I started writing this morning! But it gets better as it goes on! The more I wrote, the more awake I became! So enjoy this chapter! Please review!:)
Slowly she ran out of tears and just leaned on Mungo, breathing in his scent and letting go of her worries.
He didn't rush her or push her away; he knew he had to be patient with her and let her calm down. She would let go when she was done.
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity to Mungo, she got up and started to walk away.
"Where are you going, Rumple?" Mungo asked, suddenly curious as to whether or not she had let go off her earlier outburst.
"Nowhere. I just…ya know, need some fresh air." She replied warily, knowing what would happen if she sounded like she was still upset about something.
"Oh. Well, I was kinda hoping we could walk around the junkyard and, ya know, talk. One cat to another. Maybe relive some of the sudden tension between us." Mungo replied, suspicion clear in his tone.
She hesitated. Should I tell him? I mean, he is right. I have been giving him a bit of a cold shoulder. But if he found out what Miyela REALLY said before she passed out…I doubt he or the tribe would ever trust me again! But if they knew what attacked her, they could help her get better! But she said she didn't want me to tell anyone! But...Mungo can keep a secret. Yea, I can tell him…he has the right to know…
"Ok, come on Mungo. I have something to tell you. But let's go back to the den. No one will hear us there." Rumple finally whispered to Mungo. He nodded, and they slowly made their way back to their den.
Their den was probably the messiest, strangest, most jumbled up den in the entire junkyard. It was full of all sorts of random items they had either found around the junkyard, or stolen from their human owners.
Mungo was slightly curious as to what Rumple had to say, as he had noticed that all the way to their den, she had been fiddling with the rope of pearls that hung around her neck. It had been the first thing they had stolen together, and when she was nervous, she always fiddled with it. He knew that whatever she had to tell him, it couldn't be good.
He sat down, giving Rumple his full attention.
She slowly took a deep breath and began.
"Ok, Mungo, you know how I said Miyela only said she was attacked by something?"
"Yes…" he replied warily.
"well…I lied." Rumple confessed "She said she had been in her den, trying to sleep, when someone grabbed her and dragged her out of her den. She said that the cats that grabbed her had dragged her to an alley to a ginger cat. She had been very scared. Then, they started asking questions. They asked who her mother was, who her father was, who the protector of her tribe was, how many kittens there were in her tribe, how many where male, how many were female. When she didn't answer truthfully, or hesitated, she was beaten. She tried to escape many times, but she was found out every time and beaten. Eventually, they found out enough about her tribe that they didn't need her anymore. They left while she was asleep, and she woke up, hearing barking pollicles. She looked around, and saw a huge pollicle staring her in the face. She screamed, and ran as fast as she could away from the crazy beasts. She ran for twelve blocks before she turned around to see if they were still following her, then she ran into something hard and blacked out. By the time she came to, the pollicles were gone, but they had ripped open several old wounds that were slowly healing. She managed to get on her feet and crawl forward, but unsure where she was, she stumbled around for a long time before we found her. When you came up beside me, she whispered 'Macavity' then passed out." She finished quietly.
DUN, DUN, DUN! I had a dream about the last paragraph last night, and it was just so good, I had to put it in writing! Oh, by the way I may not be updating for a while. I have a family reunion next week, and I doubt my parents will like me typing instead of socializing! Sorry!:( but I will be thinking of you and this story! I will give a copy of this story to everyone of my family members and ask their opinion! The next chapter will be AMAZING! I promise you!:)
