Oh my. This took me way too long. But on the plus side, I've finished school and then I start college in September. And even though I have a place at a theatre school, I've decided to go along with one of my other dream jobs: Air Hostess. So I'm going to start studying travel and tourism as of September then go into training to be in the air hostess industry. Which is fun, but of course, I'm going to be auditioning for some shows during the summer. Wish me luck!
Anyways, I hope you enjoy this. Its mostly been written after I read my story again. This is because my laptop had the plan on, and it kinda broke- no fault of mine.

Please read and review! So I know I still have readers!
"Save my sister. Please." He begged. "I'll help…"
Munkustrap had taken his plea, gathering the group of cats that held the small council together. And to Coricopat, that meant that it would be discussed and turned down. Like everything that happened at the warehouse. It would be brought up for a second before being sharply turned down. With the mention of Farin when they rescued Mungojerrie's sister. He thought that the other cats would be opposed to the idea of risking yet more lives just for a cat they didn't know.
Although, this place was different. It was more caring, they wanted to help. Coricopat smiled ever so faintly, this place would at least try to help, even if they would fail.
"No." A stern voice spoke as Munkustrap finished explaining what had happened with the mystic twins. "We can't. We will lose another. Maybe even you Munkus." Skimbleshanks spoke with a shake of his head. "You know Macavity wants rid of his brothers. "
"That's not exactly true. Tugger and he get along.. Well, somewhat." Munkustrap told the older cat, sighing tenderly. "Anyways. These two cats. Cori and his sister. They've been through things we cannot even imagine. We can't turn our back on them now." He tried saying.
His eyes scanned the small group. The orange tabby still looking upset and shaking his head. Skimbleshanks. Next to him sat an elder queen with a raggedy old cat. Jellylorum and Gus. Then there was a shy, but slender cat called Victor. He was only a part of the small council due to being quite smart in strategic events. Then, in the middle of them all stood the oldest cat, yet the most respected cat. Old Deauteronomy.
"My son." Spoke the old grey cat, his paw resting gently onto the tabby's shoulder. "Listen here. The small council can say what they like. The decision always will rely on my input. And I believe it is our duty to help any cat that has succumbed to Macavity's torture. You know, as well as me, that there is a reason Coricopat has come to us asking for help." Munkustrap nodded slowly and with a small smile of encouragement, he addressed the rest of the cats.
"I believe that it is our duty as Jellicles to help this tomcat Coricopat. No matter what the dangers might be. I believe that his sister is the only thing he lives for, and if she dies at the hands of Macavity, or worse, then what will he have?" The other cats mumbled between them as he spoke, yet listened intently.
"I respect your decision Munkus. Really. But it is my choice to not like this one bit. Something bad will happen.." Skimble exhaled and rose to his feet. He bowed his head as a sign of respect and abruptly left the room. Munkustrap frowned to himself as he watched him leave.
"We need time to organise the tactics. Victor, you can plan something for tomorrow? Right? " He turned his head to look at the cat. As did everyone else. The whole group saw the young tom cower slightly but nodded his head.
"I…yeah.. I just need… No, I'll ask the magical cat." With that, Victor had leapt up and left the room hastily.
Coricopat lounged on the old forgotten car as his brown eyes locked onto the room where the meeting was taken place. He had seen the orange tabby leave, looking peeved. Then he had seen another cat run out as though he had been through an interrogation. All of which added up to bad signs in his head. But he had to keep positive. They wouldn't get anywhere without the positive view of things.
He cautiously closed his eyes when the meeting room had quietened down. There wasn't much for him to hear anyways.
A few minutes flew by before he felt a burning sensation through his body. Hisses escaped his mouth as his eyes shot open. He could hear her. He could hear his sister calling out for him. But where? He was in the Junkyard… She was with.. Macavity. No.
"Nono.." He began mumbling as he stood up, hissing again louder. "Tantomile, what's he doing?" Cori asked no one, yet did bring the attention of the other cats. His whole body felt as though it was on fire, a few painful bolts flowing through his body. Before long, he was on the floor weak, crying out in pain.
Munkustrap and the council had heard the commotion, heading outside.
"What's happening? " He asked the cats that surrounded the tri coloured tom in a circle. Munkustraps eyes slowly rested on the tom. "Oh my.." He mumbled. "Admetus, help me get him inside. Jenny follow." He rushed his voice. The other tom nodded and took Cori into his arms like a baby.
"Tanto-No" Cori cried and cried, his claws barely clinging to the other toms. His brown eyes glanced upwards.
With Ademtus staring down at the pained tom, their eyes met. Admetus tried to smile and keep his eyes happy yet sad. He was confused. The tom had never seen anything like this before.
"Put him on the bed." Munkustrap mumbled as he stood by the doorway. "Macavity. He must be hurting him from somewhere." He sighed, completely oblivious to the fact that he was connected to his sister.
"No..No. Tan… Tanto" Coricopat had begun to speak but was interrupted by another shot of pain.
Jennyanydots entered from the doorway. She was surprisingly calm. But had to be, she was the health cat, the one who helped. She never let anything phase her that much. They all stayed with the young tom as he went through hours of pain cries. Yet, when it finished. Coricopat had fallen straight to sleep, not saying any words whatsoever.
"I'll stay with him." Addie mumbled softly, sitting on a chair at the side of the bed. Munkus and Jenny nodded.
"Call us if you need anything.." Addie nodded.
