Macavity was heading towards the junkyard. He seemed very determined, but he stayed to the shadows of the rooftops, so the police dog wouldn't be able to catch him. In his mouth lay the top of a fake pine tree, just big enough to be a small Christmas tree for a cat. He was humming some Christmas songs to himself as he leaped from rooftop to rooftop with ease.
~-~ Flashback to earlier that night ~-~
Macavity was curled up in the barn near his 'human's' house. He knew that they never watched the news or read the paper, so he was safe from being discovered there.
He had lived there his entire life. His brothers, Munkustrap and Tugger also used to live there, but they had long since found humans of their own. But he stayed, he often stole money and jewels from banks and rich people, but it was all for his humans. They weren't very rich till then, but they never wondered who had given them the money.
Quietly he stalked out of the barn and into his human's home and turned on the television, he had the audio very low, but he could hear it fine. He started to flip through the channels.
Macavity- I wonder what's on tonight. No, no, no, 60 min……seen it before. Definitely not **shuddered since the last one was a Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer marathon** I hate that show..No, no, no, no, Alan Jackson? I don't think so, hmm…what's this?
He paused his ear perked up straining to hear the cartoon, not knowing what it was. Suddenly he saw Rudolph, and he quickly changed the channel.
Macavity- Sheesh, it seems like I can't get away from that reindeer tonight…hey what's on VH1?
He flipped to that channel and saw a female singer on stage singing a Christmas song. He quickly recognized the singer as Amy Grant, but he didn't know the song.
TV Amy-Do you remember me?
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
Well I'm all grown up now
I still need help somehow
I'm not a child, but my heart still can dream
So here's my life-long wish
My grownup Christmas list
Not for myself, but for a world in need
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up Christmas list
As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely
Wrapped beneath our tree
Well Heaven surely knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal
A hurting human soul
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up Christmas list
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth?
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up Christmas list
This is my only life-long wish
This is my grown-up Christmas list
After Macavity had listened to this song, he turned off the TV and took a nap. In his dream he saw himself as a kitten with his brothers, and they were celebrating their first Christmas. They were disappointed that they didn't get to have a tree or presents, but they celebrated anyway. It was the last time they were together as brothers, because before the day before New Year's celebration Munkustrap and Tugger had been sold.
Macavity woke up and realized what he had to do. He stretched and walked out of the house and headed towards town. He saw a fake pine tree on a human's yard, and with a little determination, pulled the top off of the tree. A giant human quickly chased him out of the yard with a broomstick. But he had gotten what he wanted, and now he headed to the Junkyard.
~-~ End Flashback ~-~
Macavity- ** Thinking** They better appreciate this…
He dropped down from the last rooftop and landed outside junkyard gates. There were no cats in sight, but he could smell them.
Macavity- **places the 'tree' down out of sight leaning on the wall** Oh, come on…I know your all here. So just get out here.
Munkustrap cautiously walked out to the gates.
Munkustrap- Why are you here?
Macavity- It's Christmas eve
Munkustrap- So?
Macavity- So, I thought maybe you guys could use a tree.
Munkustrap- **Gives him a skeptical look** Why should we trust you?
Macavity- **Sighs** I'm calling a temporary truce, just till the holidays are over.
Munkustrap- I dunno.. I mean after all that you've done at the last ball…
Macavity- That? I was just upset that Demi had chosen you over me.
Munkustrap- **quietly** you didn't have to kidnap dad though.
Macavity- It was the only way I could sneak in. **He reached over to the 'tree' and showed it to his brother** See? I was telling the truth about this.
Munkustrap- I still don't know about this…
Macavity- Please?
Munkustrap- Well….alright, but I'm keeping my eye on you.
Macavity walked into the junkyard with the 'tree' and stuck it into the ground, Mistoffelees used his magic to create small lights and ornaments to decorate the pine. And slowly Tugger started to band together the toms to play a little prank on the queens.
