Chapter 10 – "The Mysterious Devils Attack!"
That night after the fireworks, Maj and Misto took a little walk along the shore, little did they know, they were not alone. "What do you think you're doing out here, Tito?"
"Eva lasteen kat! Don't sneek up on mi like dat, Señor Shadow, it drives mi loco!"
"Why the heck are you spying on my little sister?"
"I wazn't. I waz just goin' to ask de odder kat if he waz reddy to feex de TV wid me tomorrow…den I saw him wid Señora Maj."
"WHAT?!?" the black cat looked over the rock they were behind.
* * * *
The two magic cats were sitting on a small boulder, their tails locked together. "And that's Felis, the one I pray to. Sigh, the stars are beautiful, ay Misto?"
"Yeah, magnificent." He felt very nervous as he stared into her eyes.
"Magnificent…that was one of the words my mother thought about when she named me."
"But I thought you were separated from your parents, Maj?"
"That was a week after we had opened our eyes. Mother had enough time to name up all. Sigh, you don't know what it's like Misto, to not have a family…to not…be loved."
The Conjuring Cat blushed as he looked down at the note in his paw. "Now I know I'm really ready."
"Ummm, M-Maj?"
"Hmmm?"
"I-I've been wanting to tell you something for a long time now…"
"Yes…"
"B-but I've just been to shy to say it…s-so I ummm, uhhhh…" he blushed and handed her the note.
Maj, I love you. You know I do, even though I've never actually said it. You and I both know that feelings are better than words. I want you to be my mate; I want to love you…forever. I will. Will you please be my mate?
She blushed, smiled, and started to purr. "Sure Misto, I will."
* * * *
Shadow smiled. "Well, at least it's with him, that I can allow. Sigh, my little Maj-jie's growing up."
"Ah amor, makes mi tink 'bout pachen tings up wid Señora Ruby."
"What, ya broke up?"
"No, I acseedently dropped a powwa wire and zaapd 'ur, she 'asn't talked to mi seence!"
"Well, you are considered a zap-trap. Come on Tito, we're not needed here." As the two toms headed back towards the yard, the magic cats, now finally together in love, could be heard singing:
Misto: This is the night
It's a beautiful night
and we call it bella notte
Look at the skies
They have stars in their eyes
On this lovely bella notte
So take this love of your loved one
You'll need it about this time
To keep from fallin' like a star
When you make that dizzy climb
For this is the night
and the heavens are right
On this lovely bella notte
Maj: This is the night
Such a beautiful night
And we call it bella notte
Look at the skies
So many stars in their eyes
What a lovely bella notte
Misto: Bella notte
Maj: Side by side
with your loved one
You'll find enchantment here
Misto: You know the
Both: night will weave
Maj: it's magic spell
Both: When the one you love is near
This is the night
and the heavens are right
On this lovely bella-
Maj: -notte
Misto: Bella Notte
Both: This lovely bella notte.

Meanwhile in a nearby palm tree, the two monsters of cats were watching the two lovers. "RRRR, Come on, Macavity, she's right there. Why can't we just grab her now!?"
"I told you, as long as that Mistoffelees cat is around, we don't stand a chance. It's going to be hard enough capturing one magic feline."
"You also said it was going to be hard to confine her, hopefully Roscoe and DeSoto have finished that magic-fireproof cell. Not even I could teleport out of it. Grrr, this plan of yours had better work, Macavity."
"Oh trust me, it will…it will. Are your men ready for tomorrow's attack?"
"As ready as they'll ever be."
The devilish fiend stared down at the young white kit with disgust. "You and your visions have caused me a lot of trouble in the past, Maj-ology…" the malicious feline thought, "You'd best enjoy tonight while you can, for it might be the last time you ever see your precious Mistoffelees ever again!"
* * * *
The next morning after Wonton had brought breakfast, Misto couldn't help but notice Maj wasn't her normal self. "Maj, you ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. I just didn't sleep well last night." She said rubbing her eyes.
"Well, we did stay up past midnight. Maybe you should take a quick catnap. You might feel better."
"Well, alright." She yawned, "Wake me in about an hour."
"Will do." He walked her home.
"Hmm, I didn't see her pray last night," Shadow poked his head out the door. "Not a good sign…never a good sign."
"What do you mean, Shadow?"
"Well, when Maj doesn't sleep right, it means Felis is trying to warn her about something. Usually something tragic. What ever it is, it had better not happen till tonight." He glared at him though the corner of his eye.
*Gulp* "Well, I'll talk to Corico and Tanto. Maybe they know if something is going to occur."
"If you say so kid, but if you ask me, those two's psychic abilities are nothing compared to Maj." And with that, he shut the door.
"Emo!"
But Shadow was right. For right as he was about to ask the twins what they knew, CRASH BANG SMASH! There was a sound much like thunder and nails on a blackboard could be heard. Toppi screamed, "DERAVITY!!!!!" The Strays took off and hid, while Usagi and Flip stood out in the middle. "MWA HAHAHAHA" the Devil Cat's evil laugh echoed through the yard. The Jellicles were both confused and terrified. Then suddenly SMASH BANG CRASH! A sound much like thunder and the smashing of glass bottles could be heard. They recognized this sound. "MACAVITY!!!!!" Demeter screamed as Munk and Alonzo joined Usagi. An equally evil laugh rang out along with the growls of several Doberman Pollicles. The dogs drew nearer and the sky when black, the wicked felines unseen.
"Kittens, Queens, Leaders RUN FOR IT!!!" Usagi shouted as he unsheathed his sword-knives. Everyone took cover as the canines slowly surrounded the toms.
"Whimper, Pollicles, why did it have to be Pollicles? I could never bring myself to hurt a dog. Whine!!"
"Don't be fooled by their appearance, Flip!" Burmie, along with Shadow, Tito, Jerrie, Misto , and Toppi, joined the other toms. "They're just cats in disguise. One of Deravity's old tricks." It was true. The Pollicles were canine-built but cat-size, a simple transformation.
"GRRR, now that changes things, GRUFF!"
The fight raged on. Misto threw lightning bolts back and forth as Flip snapped at the hounds like a mad 'cat-dog'. Shadow, with his favorite Bowie knife in his mouth, slashed his head around slicing the throats of the dogs as he ran. Tito, who was not too good at physical fighting, used his professional gymnastics to maneuver though the mongrels , pushing them into one another's attacks. Mungojerrie and Burmieo employed the fighting techniques they learnt during their employment with the villains and found themselves alongside Usagi and the others in the heart of the battle. They were winning. But all of a sudden, the Pollicles retreated. Had they truly won?
Burmie looked around. Except for a few cuts, everyone was ok. The Burmese tom looked around and spotted a blood-stained note in the middle of the yard which Usagi read.
Strays,
Though you don't know him, I have teamed up with your friends' enemy, Macavity. You love them dearly and they love you back. He wants them dead as I wish you were.
Therefore, we have used this attack as a distraction and have taken someone you all love. The Hostage will be held as ransom until you turn the Jellicles over to Macavity. They know their fate, but this Hostage is worth more to you than them. So, who's it going to be? The Jellicles…or the Hostage? Your choice.
Bring them to me within 10 days,OR THE HOSTAGE WILL BE KILLED!!!!
~ The Shattered Claw
Except for Tito, who was the youngest adult, all the cats that had fought stayed calm as they scanned the area. Shadow felt tense as his eyes searched the yard. All the Jellicles were there, meaning it had to be a Stray. He studied the faces that flashed before him. Usagi, Flip, Shagg, Burmie, Tito, Wonton, Tonka, Ruby, Tabby, Snow, Toppi, Sparta, Koja, Loki, Fido, Malurina, Kyuu, Mouse, Rosuto…it seemed like everyone was here. But then the telltale sent of smoke gave the answer. "Oh no! MAJ!" the black Bombay hoped his thoughts were wrong as he dashed towards his house. Seeing the look on his face, the others followed, Misto up in front. But the dreadful sight made the magic cat freeze with fear. One wall had been reduced to ash and most of the room was completely burned. What was left of remaining walls was covered in deep claw marks and blood had been splattered around the floor. "It c-can't be…" the heartbroken tom tried not to think of what could have gone on in the burnt room.
"Please Maj, don't let it be you!" he tried to hold back his tears. Everyone else was hoping the same thing, especially the Jellicles. Who could have done something like this to the one who had helped them so much? Flip sniffed the blood-stains. "W-well, Flip?" Usagi stuttered. "Whine, Luckily only a little bit of this is her blood, most of it is Dacavity's and some other cat. Their sent doesn't leave the room, must have teleported away. I can't track them, Whimper…" Hearing this made Misto feel dizzy and his legs turn to jelly. Then everything when black and, WHUMP! "Misto!" But he couldn't hear, for the poor Conjuring Cat had fainted.
Hope you all liked this chapter, I love doing fight scenes. Just want to add something for those expecting an upcoming death, I DON'T KILL GOOD GUYS! I know almost everyone kills some characters in their fan-fics, but I don't! (Doing it always leaves a bad feeling of guilt in my gut!) But just a hint for the future chapters, I do like doing reincarnations!
By the way, I forgot to mention in Ch. 9 that Tonka Topper is my personal character. I based her off my Inner Personality.
Well, see you in Chapter 11, "Another Plan Greatly Needed".
