From previous chapter:

The two of them sat there grinning like idiots until a voice from the nearby rooftops called down to them.

"Nice song, but two pretty queens shouldn't be in the dark alleys all alone."

"Who's there?" Victoria called out as boldly as she could while shielding Jemima from whatever harm might come. The voice shouted out again, "I'm a lonely Jellicle, just like you two."

The tom jumped down from the rooftops to reveal his identity, but Jemima wasn't too shocked to see that it was Alonzo. The black and white tom had a sad smile on his face as he whispered, "I'm sorry."

"Sorry?" Jemima exclaimed in surprise, perplexed by his serious tone. Victoria in turn asked, "nd,What is there to be sorry for?"

A hint of suspiciousness could be heard in her voice but the second-in-command Jellicle set his mouth in a grim straight line and answered, "Sorry for what is about to happen."

"What is-", Victoria started to ask and then the dark alley brightened with blazing lights. The brightness came from every direction shining directly into Jemima and Victoria's eyes. It made them feel like criminals out of a novel or movie, except for the fact that it was reality which made it so much more frightening.

"Jemima, I told you not to wander around, look what's happened now!" Demeter cried out, standing on the nearby rooftops with all the Jellicles behind her and Munkustrap. Jemima began to shiver violently and hung onto Victoria desperately. THe white queen patted her friend's paw and said defiantly, "Just for two kitttens sneaking out for a little fun and the whole Jellicle tribe arrives to witness them being caught."

Munkustrap's face was so serious that it seemed to be a funeral and Victoria was afraid that it might actually turn out to be their funeral. The tabby snarled, "This is worse than just two kittens sneaking out. It's something against the Everlasting Cat and nature itself!"

"You mean we shouldn't be singing in the dark?" Victoria questioned feigning ignorance. Jelly snorted as Old Deuteronomy made his way towards the front of the crowd. He opened his arms and said, "You may be young but I know for a fact that neither of you is stupid. I told you both long ago that this sort of behavior isn't acceptable, but allow me to refresh your memory."

"No need", Jemima interrupted causing several gasps among the Jellicles. When had the small, calico turned so rude and brash? It was the white queen's fault, no doubt.

"I remember every word you said to me that day", Jemima stated flatly and continued, "Did you really think that pathetic excuse was enough to stop true love?"

Her passionate voice rang through the alley and echoed back eerily. Then without hesitation she began to sing, making up the words as she went along.

Why should I welcome your domination?
Why should I listen to explanations?

Old Deuteronomy's usually happy face fell into a deep frown as he heard her words. This was beyond rude and insulting.

I'm not pretending to make it simple.
Try to be something experimental.

It seemed that her prior courage was failing and once again she was Jemima, the shy, docile and scared kitten. Victoria joined in with her own lyrics.

You don't turn me off I will never fail.
Things I love before are now for sale.

Very few of the Jellicles could understand what Victoria was singing about, but Electra caught on. It meant that things she valued before didn't seem so important anymore because of Jemima and that no one would be able to stop her unless they killed both of them.

Keep yourself away,
Far away from me.
I forever stay
Your perfect enemy.

Basically a declaration of war, Munkustrap thought bitterly. Victoria's voice was haunting and ethereal.

Tumblebrutus gaped, half-understanding why Jemima had rejected him. Jemima and Victoria sang the last lines over again.

Demeter looked at her sister with disbelieving eyes and ears. Victoria truly had changed Jemima and not in a good way.

They stopped singing and the Jellicles leapt down from the rooftops, one by one. Jenny called out, "Victoria, stop this nonsense and come back to the Junkyard."

"Why are you against this, Aunt Jenny?" Victoria whispered so that only Jenny, Jemima and her could hear. Her aunt froze for a second and whispered back, "The two of you come back to the Junkyard and I'll tell you why."

"Why not tell us now?" Victoria hissed angrily. She was through with playing these games.

"Because this isn't a good place to tell it", Jenny sighed, "I swear on the Everlasting Cat that I will tell you the honest truth if you come back to the Junkyard."

An oath on the Everlasting Cat was the deepest one a Jellicle could make and so Victoria decided it was worth it. Jemima and Victoria trailed back to the Junkyard while others watched them suspiciously.

Jenny had Victoria and Jemima settle in Jelly's den and began to tell the story. Jelly at first had been nervous and asked if it was wise, but Jenny had shushed her.

"I had a sister and her name was Jenisis. An interesting fact is that my parents had wanted to name her Jenesis meaning beginning, but they had spelled it wrong. So it seemed that her name wouldn't have a meaning. Anyway, she was young and foolish like you two. Eventually she thought she was in love with another queen. The two of them began to have a relationship and everyone knew about it. We tried to stop the two of them, but they were misguided. One day, an alley cat who was a devote follower of the Everlasting Cat attacked them both. Jenisis...was killed."

Jenny's voice broke momentarily and then she continued after a big gulp of air. "The other queen was badly injured, but survived."

"This is the reason why I am so opposed to the two of you having a relationship and now I hope you will understand how wrong and dangerous it is!" Jenny ended up screaming and then whispered, "I just want both of you to be safe, that's all."

For a moment the den was silent. Then Victoria whispered, "I'm sorry, Aunt Jenny, I know you mean well, but...I'd rather be dead than without Jemima."

Jemima's eyes widened and she whispered, "Really?"

"Yes. Always and forever."

"Did you not learn anything?" Jenny exclaimed in disbelief. Jemima answered, "We learned that love is worth dying for."

The two of them got up to leave and just before exiting the den, Jemima turned aroud slightly and asked, "Who was the queen Jenisis fell in love with?"

"Exotica", Jenny whispered. Jemima smiled and said, "I thought so, she waits outside my den singing a lullaby each night for me. I didn't know who it was until you told me the story. I can tell by her songs that she approves of our relationship. She doesn't regret it."

"But you will regret it. Both of you!" Jenny cried.

"I love you too, Aunt Jenny", Victoria said. Then as the two exited Old Deuteronomy, Munkustrap and Alonzo were waiting for them outside. Munkustrap said, "Tomorrow morning, Victoria will be leaving the Junkyard for some fresh air."

"What?!?!?!"

A/N: End of my short chapter. I don't know when this story will end, but there is a chance that the next chapter may be the last. Sorry for the short notice. I'll think about it. Just remember that I have a knack for actually killing some of the characters. *wink* *wink*

Please review! And finally the story of Jenisis is explained.
