Hi guys! Second chapter is here. I already had it written I just had to edit it. I hope you liek this chapter =D
Please read and reply! =^_^=
Demeter sat on the boot of the old Ford. Munkustrap was beside her and a dainty silver and gold tail was flicking across the faces of the two adults. Demeter sighed softly and tried to maneuver herself so she could face the offending object.
'Rina, please stop that, we're trying to rest.' She said as she felt a movement inside of her.
A small gold, silver and black kitten with a white bib and red paws poked its head down from the roof of the car.
'Sorry mama, I gots bored, no one wants to play.' She said softly as she stared at her mother with crystal green eyes.
Demeter gave a smile towards the kitten, 'That's okay, just try to be a little bit more cautious.' She said stroking her heavily swollen stomach.
The kitten nodded and glanced at her father who had given her a stern but soft look. 'Lurina, your mother is due to have her kittens anyday now and we need to make sure she is comfortable at all times, then you will have someone else to play with.' He said smiling at his daughter.
Lurina nodded, 'Yes daddy, I cant wait for my little brothers and sisters to arrive!' She said happily as she bounded off giggling.
Demeter looked at Munkustrap. 'She's a strange one, I'll give her that, she's definitely an individual.' She laughed.
Munkustrap nuzzled his mate and wrapped a paw around her stomach protectively.
Demeter was currently pregnant for a second time. Their first litter, consisting of only one, was their little multi coloured calico Lurina, named after Demeter's half sister Bombalurina, who had been taken and killed by Macavity 3 years earlier.
To the day all the cats were still haunted by the finding of the bloodied body and collar outside the junkyard.
Since Bombalurina had been murdered by Macavity he hadn't been seen or heard of. Also inside the junkyard many things had changed.
Five litters of kittens had been born giving the junkyard a new generation of 'little terrors' as the older cats had taken to calling it.
The first litter came from Demeter and Munkustrap and consisted of Lurina, small dainty gold, silver, black, white and red calico who was just an odd mix.
The second litter came from Rumpleteazer and Admetus. There had been two kittens born, a small grey, brown and orange tabby tom called Matti and a mischivious little female kitten who was identical to her mother except where her mother was white she was light brown who went by the name Tipsi.
The third litter came from Victoria and Plato who had mated and also had one kitten, a graceful female who was mainly white with a few ginger stripes on her fur named Annabelle.
The fourth and fifth litter came from one of the most unexpected couples, Mungojerrie and Cassandra.
Together they had had four kittens, one in their first litter and three in their second.
In their first litter they had had a troublesome tom who was brown with flecks of black and white through him, he went by the name of Thomson.
In the second litter their had been another 2 toms and a queen. The two toms were identical too their father but had their mothers sleek coat and went by the name of Jasc and Zack. Finally the queen was the spitting image of their mother in every way, the only thing she got from her father was his green eyes.
So while the loss of the Scarlet Jellicle Queen was tough on the tribe there were now many more distractions. And with the impending delivery of Demeter's next litter the junkyard was buzzing.
Jennyanydots stood to the side and observed the behaviour of all the cats, since the death of their flirty queen the tribe had taken extra measures to make sure everyone was safe.
She peered carefully as she spotted the group of kittens mucking around near the tyre. Old Deuteronomy had passed of the year before and Munkustrap had now taken his place as Jellicle leader.
The Rum Tum Tugger had at first been wallowing in self pity along with the loss of his only competition in the junkyard and recently agreed mate, but soon was back to his old self when Cassandra's sister Exotica came out of her shell. She and Tugger had recently mated and shocked everyone when they announced it.
Jenny chuckled a little at how much everything had changed. But still felt deep regret that her niece wasn't around to experience the happines that came with being free of Macavity, well for now at least.
A scream from the kittens brought Jenny back to her current state. She looked over as she saw all the kittens with their fur sticking up and then two different paws stick form over a recognised them instantly as the paws of Tipsi and Thomson. She shook her head, those kittens were causing more trouble than Rumpleteazer and Mungojerrie did when they were young.
Jenny sighed and went back into her den leaving the kittens to do their wondering now that they had come within sight of Jellylorum.
Over the other sid eof the junkyard te kittens were playing tag when suddenly Tipsi tripped over a rock and landedflat on her face.
Sitting up she rubbed ehr face and looked at th eothers. They noticed a small smakshift cross that ahd flowers covering it, and a spiked leather collar hanging from it.
The kittens were extremely curious and studied the grave. Lurina, being the oldest kitten was the only one able to read properly. Studying the words she readit out for all the kittens to hear.
'Bombalurina. The proud and heroic Jellicle Queen who saved the tribe from the evil Macavity at the cost of her own life. Dearly missed sister of Demeter, Loved mate of Rum Tum Tugger and Loving niece of Jennyanydots. Taken far too early from us by the wicked Macavity. May she rest in peace in the heaviside layer.'
Lurina stopped reading and glanced at the kittens, she herself had slight tears in her eyes. She whispered, 'I had an aunty, Mama never told me aout her. How come?' She said sadly.
Tipsi stepped forward, 'It's because she probabaly didn't want you too feel upset that you never met her, and it's probabaly hard for her to deal with.' She said wrapping a paw around Lurina's shoulder.
The other kittens were somber at the discovery and trudged slowly back to their den each contemplating how they would ask their parents about Bombalurina and the evil cat Macavity.
There you go, second chapter ^^ That should keep everyone happy for the time being and distracted from my slowness of toher stories lol XD
Enjoy!!!
