*Jemima POV*
We walked in silence around the junkyard, Alonzo never leading my side. I didn't really care whether it was because he wanted to, or if it was because he was protecting the yard from me. It felt nice.
"Hey are you hungry?" I took his paw, jumping in front of him and leading him out of the gates. He pulled back a bit before I got him out of the yard, he seemed less tense now that he didn't have to protect everyone. I dragged him behind a restaurant that the smell of food wafted from. Leaping onto a trash can, my teeth closed around a hunk of meat. Taking it into my mouth I jumped down and began to chew at the fowl. Alonzo ducked behind a trash can, dragging out a nearly-complete slab of fish. He ate like a pollicle, pulling my attention away from the chicken. He had a vicious appetite, not one I'd want to feed when we became mates. No – wait, what? What am I thinking? First friends, then courting, then mates.
My brow furrowed as I noticed that he'd nearly finished with all of the fish. "Quite the appetite you've got there."
"Yeah," He stood up, smiling sheepishly. "I guess I do."
I laughed, walking over to him and wiping away a piece of stray meat. "Yeah, but it's good I suppose," I brushed down the fur along his shoulder, giving him a small punch. "Gotta build up that muscle."
He chuckled, his eyes meeting with mine. His eyes were like an ocean of green, the riptide pulling me deeper. I shook off the thought, looking down the alley. Alonzo looked up back at the sky, the sun almost in the center of the sky. "Crap, I'm sorry. I really have to go though."
"Oh, yeah. Go, be a guardian and all that good stuff." He smiled, his paw just barely raising to my cheek. The warmth that radiated off his hand made my heart beat fly, my stomach fluttering as my muscles loosened. He pulled his mitt back suddenly, gripping it tight as he turned the other direction and ran off towards the junkyard.
I sighed, feeling a bit betrayed and hurt. Crossing my arms, I bit back the small whimper that wanted to break past my lips.
"What Tom in his right mind would leave a Queen. Alone. Unprotected. In an alleyway like this?" I turned around, his hand grabbing my wrist in an iron tight grasp.
"Plato."
*Tugger POV*
Genalie took my paw, her eyes looking deep into mine. "I'm so sorry Tugger." She whispered, her eyes filling with tears as we entered the main room.
"Why?"
"Tugger?" My head snapped around to the small Tom in the center of the room. His coat was tattered and torn as his limbs spread out unnaturally. His lip was split, the blood bright and obvious on his pale white face.
"Misto." I whispered, running to his side. I didn't know what to do! There was so much blood, so many wounds along his fragile body. What was I going to do, I wasn't Jenny for Basts's sake. I had no idea how to help him. My fingers brushed over his cheek, they were nearly cold as ice.
*Sillabub POV*
Mistoffelees took my paw, pulling me around the back of the junk pile. "Where are we going?" I laughed, trotting to keep up with him as he began to walk faster. I screamed as Misto's body hit the floor. Consumed by fear I didn't move as Tishon and Harley dragged his limp body away. Turning on my heel and running the other direction, I had to get help.
*Munkustrap POV*
"The plan is full proof Skimble, there's no way this will fall through."
"But Munku-"
"HELP!" My head turned to the scream, Sillabub standing the doorway, tears streaming down their cheeks. "They took Mistoffelees!" I stood up, running to her and placing my paws on her shoulders.
"Who?" She sobbed, her eyes full of fear. "Who took Misto Sillabub?" I shook her slightly, trying to get her to cooperate.
"Hench-cats. "
"We need a search team."
"For who?" Alonzo walked in the door, striding up to me in a few steps. His eyes took in the distressed scene, looking up Silla up and down. "What's happened?"
"Misto's gone." I stood up to my full height. He sighed, his composure falling and his green eyes becoming worried. "We'll get him. Skimble, you me and Alonzo will go. Now."
*Jemima POV*
I tried to snap out of the trance that his eyes held. Trying to break from his hold I began to wriggle and went to slam my fist against his chest.
"Why did you come here?" I spat.
"F-for you s-silly." He tried to smile, his eyes giving him away. The liar was here to pull me back into Macavity's grasp.

But I just can't take a liar

Till you pushed me in the fire
You won't look in my eyes tell me what's going on
That's what you said, that's what you said
If you can't be honest with me

Keep on stuttering (yeah you're stuttering)
"So you wanna do this the hard way then."
