Next Chapter. I don't own cats so please no sueing
When Mungo reached Macavity's Lair he knocked three times as the guard had told him the night before and was soon let in. This time by a tom with long black fur and one eye opened the door. "Oh, Mungojerrie, you're in trouble with the Boss..." he said hesitantly.
"Oi know," Mungo muttered. "Oi would be in worse if Oi didn' come back though- we know dat."
The tom nodded and let him pass. "Better go straight to the boss then and get it over with."
When Mungo reached Macavity's room the ginger tom was the only one there- he snarled at Mungo who cautiously approached. "Oi know Oi didn' obey- Oi was gonna brin' her back but-"
"I know what happened at the docks," Macavity interrupted.
He swallowed. "Yeah... well... Oi- Oi do know wha' she would tell me abou' her past, sir... she wouldn' leave the junkyard after she got back there..." Macavity didn't say anything so he told the other everything that Teazer had told him. What am I doing? He wondered quietly afterwards while he watched the ginger tom waiting for him to speak.
"I see," The tom said finally. "And why aren't you with your Lady friend now?"
"Because Oi... well..." Mungo sighed. "Oi got mad and left her. Dey were actin' like Oi didn' know how ta protect her..."
Macavity's eyes flashed. "You left her?"
"Um... yeah..." Mungo said slowly not quite sure what he'd done wrong now..."
"That was probably the most-" Macavity stopped short and softened his tone. "Of course it is understandable... nothing to be done now..."
"Sir?"
"Get out of my sight, Mungojerrie," Macavity snapped. "I don't want to see you until I next send and you're not to leave the Lair for any reason!"
Mungo swallowed and nodded backing away and out the door before turning and running.
Macavity sighed once the younger tom was away and sat down. I'll kill him myself this time, he promised. and this time Esteria isn't here to stop me.
