Chapter 3- DisAppearing Act
'Macavity!'
The cats froze. Munkustraps fur raised on his back and quickly glanced towards his den where he could make out Demeter shivering. Glancing around he spotted two eerily yellow eyes watching him.
Munkustrap's blood started to boil, he turned to the others. 'Get the kittens to safety, then get the Toms ready for a fight if we need to.' He said.
The group he was previously sitting with all scattered quickly and disapeared.
A manical chuckle was let out of Ginger feline's mouth that made Munkustrap, and everyone else for that matter shudder. It was the same chuckle he had let out the day he had last set paw in the junkyard, the day Bombalurina had been unfairly taken from them. Munkustrap gritted his teeth and clenched his paws into fists.
'What are you doing here Macavity?!' He called out angrily as he glanced around to make sure the kittens were all safe.
The low grumble of Macavity's voice made everyone tense up in fear. 'I'm here to...'He trailed off, leaving unspoken words in the air as he motioned for something to come forward.
Munkustrap kept his eyes peeled closely at the figure approaching Macavity. When Macavity and the assistant moved into the moonlight he gasped. 'No, don't you dare take them.' He said angrily.
In the background Demeter had been hiding near Jennyanydots. When Macavity held up the bundle of fur of what was Lurina, Tipsi and Thomas she ran forward as fast as she could. 'You evil manipulative cruel vendictive bastard!' She screamed while the older cats covered the kittens ears. Demeter continued but was held back by Skimbleshanks, 'Give them back! They don't belong to you! You can't take them!' She screamed.
Macavity, who had previously been staring at Munkustrap flicked his head around to look Demeter straight in the eyes. Observing her he grinned, 'My my Demeter, pregnancy certainly does you wonders, you look lovely.' He said grinning.
Munkustrap made a move forward but Macavity shook his head, 'Nah uh uh Straps, I wouldn't do that if you want your precious little kitten to live, unlike, who was it? Ah that's right, Bombalurina. Do you remember her? Such a pretty thing, fiesty as hell and sexy to boot, shame she killed my kittens.' He said thoughtfully before continuing, 'Thankfully this little one here should keep me occupied, it's not like you'll miss her, you seem to have more on the way, one less won't harm anyone.' He said running a paw across Lurina's face slowly. He looked Demeter in the eyes, 'Don't worry Deme darling, I'll be back for your other litter soon as well, it's only a matter of weeks, don't you worry about that.' He chuckled.
Some of the other cats had slowly been advancing on Macavity's towering figure, and when Macavity noticed this he spoke lowly, 'Don't try anything, otherwise this one will end up just like ehr Aunt.' He said drawing blood on Lurina's face. Motioning to Tipsi and Thomas he smirked, 'As for these two.' He said throwing them to the ground, 'You can have them back, I would of thought kittens of my former employees may have had a bit more spunk in them, but I see they are just like you lowly jellicles, such a shame, they could of been great.' He said grinning hauntingly at Rumpleteaser and Mungojerry. 'Now I'm sorry to cut this lovely 5 year reunion short but I have a new kitten to play with, ciao.' He said as he disapeared.
The whole junkyard was in a frozen stance, except Demeter, who let out a painful howl. Munkustrap ran to her as she collapsed on the ground. Bawling her eyes out Demeter was starting to hyperventilate and Munkustrap attempted to calm her down. She was holding her stomach and breathing deeply. She grasped for Munkustrap, 'Munk, I think, I think they are coming, it's to early!' She said bawling her eyes out painfully.
Munkustrap glanced up at Jennyanydots who was beside Demeter in a heartbeat holding her hand. Jenny had a look of worry on her face, it was far to early for Demeter to have her kittens yet. Munkustrap wanted to go after Macavity but he didn't want to leave Demeter.
Jellylorum placed her paw on Munkustraps shoudler gently. 'Munkustrap, you have to stay here, and don't send anyone out. it's far to dangerous, and the kittens will be worried. Leave it a week or so, that way Macavity won't be as suspecting of an attack. I know it's hard to contemplate but please, think about the others.' She said sadly.
Munkustrap hung his head, 'I know, but I can't lose Lurina, not like we lost Bombalurina, it's just to hard.' He said, tears glistening.
Jellylorum shook her head, 'I promise you, Macavity may be a sadistic bastard but if he really wants to get back at you he won't kill her.' She said.
Munkustrap nodded at the truth behind Jellylorums words. He glanced over at Jennyanydots den where Demeter was just being taken inside by Plato and Admetus. Giving a sigh of defeat he slumped his shoulders. He made his way to Jennyanydots den to see his mate and their new litter of kittens, the other cats watchign him with sorrowful looks.
Meanwhile, back at Macavity's new lair, the tiny form of Lurina looked around as she managed to finally open her eyes. She could hear hushed whispers in the background and screams of pain also flowed through the very few cracks in what looked to be an old wooden door. Lurina let out a small whimper, 'Where am I?' She said quietly sobbing.
Lurina jumped as a low but feminine voice hit her ears, 'You are in Macavity's lair.' The voice said before the screaming and talking ceased to a silence that was deafening.
Lurina sobbed, 'Help me daddy.' She whispered quietly before bursting into tears.
There you go, another cliffhanger. I hope you enjoyed the chapter ^^
