Chapter 2: Invitation to the Jellicle Ball and the Pollicles
--
"Hurry and finish up your fish Jemima" Demeter said as Jemima ate her fish briskly.
Just then, Etcetera's head poke out in their den, wearing a wide grin.
"Jemima! C'mon! Let's play with the other kittens!" she said happily, never leaving her grin.
Jemima smiled as she looked at Demeter with pleading eyes. Demeter already knows what it meant so she nodded.
"But be caref—"before Demeter could complete her sentence, Jemima already left happily along with Etcetera.
Demeter sighed. "Jemima, when will you learn?" Demeter said to herself as she picked up the unfinished fish Jemima ate and threw it in the trash.
Munkustrap went inside the den, which made Demeter surprised a bit.
"Munkustrap, what is it? Did you forget something?" Demeter asked as Munkustrap shook his head.
"I felt an evil presence here" Munkustrap said as Demeter looked around, aware if it was Macavity.
"Is it Macavity?" she asked, scared that it might hurt her or Jemima.
Munkustrap shrugged. "I don't think so. It feels like Macavity, but, it's not him. It's like a part of him"……..

"Hurry Jemima!" Etcetera said happily as Jemima was trying to catch up with her.
"Will you slow down?" Jemima said, panting. Etcetera just giggled as they reached the old car trunk. Sitting there was Misto and Victoria.
"Hi guys! Wanna play with us?" Etcetera asked, grinning widely.
Victoria gently smiled at them as she shook her head.
"Sorry, we can't play now. We're talking about the invitation of the Jellicle Ball" Victoria said as Jemima raised an eyebrow.
"Invitation to the Jellicle Ball? Do you mean that Misto is your mate?" Jemima asked curiously as Etcetera giggled.
Victoria's eyes widened as she cleared her throat.
"He's not my mate because he's younger than me." Victoria said as Misto nodded.
Etcetera and Jemima glanced at Misto curiously.
"How come you don't talk much right now Misto?" Jemima asked.
Misto just shrugged as Victoria laughed lightly.
"He told me that he's saving his voice for the invitation of the Jellicle Ball" Victoria said as Etcetera and Jemima laughed lightly.
"Victoria, what are you two going to do in the Invitation of the Jellicle Ball?" Etcetera asked, sitting down with Jemima.
"Well, we're going to have a dance. We will just tell you about the Jellicle Ball through singing and dancing. I'm the one who will be dancing and Misto will be the one singing" Victoria said as Jemima smiled.
"You two are going to have your own solos?" Jemima asked, smiling brightly as Victoria nodded.
"That's the thing I wanna see!" Etcetera squealed. (A/N: You know what; I'll just call Etcetera "Etcy" for short. It's hard to spell it.)
Victoria giggled lightly. Suddenly, Electra finally came.
"Hey big sis!" Jemima said happily as Electra just yawned, ignoring Jemima.
"What are you guys doing here in the old car?" Electra asked as Victoria shrugged.
"We're talking about the Invitation of the Jellicle Ball" Etcy said as Electra nodded.
"That's good. But, wanna go outside the junkyard and play?" Electra said, her eyes brightening up.
Etcy squealed in delight. "Yes! I would love that!" Etcy said as Jemima nodded happily.
Victoria hesitated, but she finally nodded. They looked at Misto, who was still sitting down.
"Aren't you coming, Misto?" Jemima asked.
Misto shook his head. "I've got better things to do" he said as he scratched the back of his head.
"I made you talk!" Jemima said happily as she and Etcy slapped high fives.
"BYE!" They all said as they ran off.
"What's the presence I'm feeling when Etcy and Jemima came? I'm pretty sure it's bad" Misto thought as he jumped out of the old rusty car and was surprised that Munkustrap was there.
"Oh, good afternoon Misto. Let me ask you something, did you feel any bad presence here?" Munkustrap asked with a serious face.
Misto nodded. "Yeah. I felt a bad presence. But it's not Macavity. The feeling is different" Misto said, looking around. Munkustrap nodded.
"I can feel it too."

"Jemima, look at the hotdog man, he's selling hotdogs. Mind if you get three of those?" Electra asked Jemima, smirking.
Jemima looked at the fat hotdog man selling hotdogs.
"I don't know. What if I get hurt?" Jemima asked, scared.
Electra smirk grew wider. "What do you mean get hurt? You're good at this!" Electra said.
"I haven't even done this before" Jemima said, scared.
"Electra, its better if Jemima wouldn't do it. She's your lil sis, you should be taking care of her" Victoria said as Electra rolled her eyes.
"Stop nagging. Anyway, Jemima, do it! Unless you're afraid" Electra said.
Jemima glared at her. "I'm not a coward you know!" she said angrily, which made Electra grin.
"Good. Then show us. Get us 3 hot dogs" Electra said as Jemima nodded without hesitation as she ran towards the hot dog man.
She began to act helpless and hungry as the hot dog man saw her.
"Meow" she meowed with a small voice as the hot dog man smiled at her.
"Aww, you must be hungry. Here you go" he said, giving her 1 hot dog.
Jemima shook her head.
"Okay? Here's 2"
She shook her head.
"Okay, 3"
She nodded her head as the hot dog man gave it to her. She gave him a smile and went back to her friends and sister.
"See? Easy peasy!" Jemima said proudly as she gave them each hot dogs.
"Why didn't get yourself one?" Etcy asked, eating the hotdog.
Jemima just shook her head. "Don't worry, I'm full." Jemima said as Etcy nodded.
"Well, well, well. Looks like the kittens finally gave us dinner" a voice said as they turned around just to see 3 pollicles.
They walked towards them, as the kittens took a step back.
"Give us the hot dog" one pollicle said.
They shook their head.
"We're very hungry." Etcy said, trembling like a leaf.
The pollicle raised an eyebrow.
"Are you disobeying my orders?" he said as they ran towards them.
They got scared as they were about to run, but they caught up with them.
Victoria immediately went in front of them to shield them.
"What's this white kitten doing now?" one pollicle said.
"I won't let you guys hurt them" she said bravely.
The dogs rolled their eyes.
"If that's the case, let's get her!" they said as they pushed Victoria, she fell down on her back rather hard.
"Victoria!" Jemima cried, tears were now rolling down her cheeks.
They were about to attack Victoria to death, when suddenly a teenage male cat came. It was Plato.
"I won't let you touch her!" he said angrily as he attacked the pollicles. He managed to defeat them, but he's filled with bloody wounds.
He fell down as Victoria and the others ran towards them.
The first one he saw was Victoria.
"Plato?! Are you alright?! Don't worry! We'll bring you to Jennyanydots!" Victoria said, her eyes filled with worry.
His sight became blurry as he fainted.
