Chapter 5- Almost Perfect

In the junkyard worry was etched on Rumpleteaser and Admetus's faces. 'Matti! Matti!' They called glancing around the junkyard. Rumpleteaser was nearing a break down until a call shouted from the otherside of the junkyard, 'I found him!' Said the young voice of Sillabub from across the junkyard, she was followed by Jemima who was carrying Mattie.

Rumpleteaser flew forwards towards the two young queens and grabbed matti, 'Oh thankyou girls! Thatnkyou do much.' She exclaimed. SHe glanced down at mattie, 'What were you doing?' She asked tears pricking her eyes.

Matti glanced up at his mother with wide eyes, 'That cat came for us, but I ran out of his way when he tried to catch me, and I hid, I didn't wanna be caught.' He said sadly.

Rumpleteaser stroked his head gently, 'It's okay Matti, you're safe now.' She said as she started walking over towards her den.

Sillabub and Jemima looked at each other before ducking back to their shared den.

In the darkness Lurina couldn't stop sobbing, she could hear a queen screaming down the hall, and it wasn't the first one. Curling her tail around her tightly she had no idea what to expect, she had never been exposed to this kind of thing before. Crying queitly she felt a paw on her head and the same female voice from before spoke again, 'Honey, don't cry, that's the first rule in this place, don't show anyone that you are scared.' SHe said patting the kitten on the head gently.

Lurina glanced up at the cat but couldn't make anything out through the darkness that surrounded her. She took a shot in the dark, 'My name is Lurina.' She sniffed sadly.

The female queen tensed slightly, 'My name is Griddlebone.' She said taking ehr paw away.

Lurina was about to say something when the door burst open and a figure came crumpling in. The light got switched on and for the first time Lurina saw the queen who had identified herself as Griddlebone. She was a tall queen, taller than any of the queens in the junkyard, she was pure white and was very large and fluffy with bright blue eyes. She had a few patches of fur missing and a large cut across her face. Otherwise she was very pretty, and in her good days she would of been stunning. Lurina couldn't stop staring.

Suddenly a small sound of pain came from the other female who had just been chucked in. Griddlebone ran over to the orange and white queen, who wasn't actually a queen but quite young. She ddin't look to much older than Lurina.

Griddlebone picked the kitten up. 'C'mon Tils, it's okay.' he said nuzzling the kitten. Lurina looked over curiously.

Griddlebone looked at Lurina, 'Lurina, this is my daughter, Tilly, she's six.' She said strokign the kittens head.

Lurina glanced at the small queen, maybe she wouldn't be alone.

The three cats sat down and Griddlebone studied Lurina, 'I hope you don't mind me staring dear, but you look an awful lot like someone I once knew.' She said. 'Where are you from?' She asked.

Lurina glanced at the white Persian, 'I, I'm from the Jellicle Junkyard.' She said nervously.

Griddlebone nodded, 'I thought as much, who are your parents dear?' She said placing Tilly on the the cusion.

Lurina smiled sadly at the thought of her parents worried about ehr back in the junkyard, 'My parents are Munkustrap and Demeter.' She said sadly.

Griddlebone gasped, 'I knew you looked familar, they are two names I haven't heard in a long time.' She said.

Lurina gasped, 'You know my parents?' She asked interested.

Griddlebone nodded, 'Yeah, I lived with your mother for a while, a very long time ago.' She said smiling.

Lurina raised her eyebrows in surprise, 'Did you, well, I recently found out, did you know, my Aunt?' Lurina asked sadly yet hopefully at the same time.

Griddlebone froze, 'I completely forgot about that, I forgot that if you were Demeters daughter that Bombalurina would be your Aunt.' She said trailing off.

Lurina glanced at Griddlebone surprised, 'You did know ehr! Oh, could you tell me about her? Please?' She asked.

Griddlebone glanced down at the kitten and smiled softly, 'Of course.'

Back int he junkyard sccreaming had ceased and the junkyard was silent, everyone was waiting for the news of Demeter's condition.

Munkustrap appeared, 'Six kittens, two died.' He said sadly. The junkyard sighed sadly for the loss.

In the den Munkustrap appeared back beside Demeter. 'Hey Deme.' He said softly strokig the fur behind her ear.

Dngmeter smiled softly at him, 'Hey Munk.' She said staring at the 4 kittens beside her.

Munkglanced down at the kittens sqirming around, and then at the unmoving kittens. The four sqirming kittens were an array of colours. A gold and black tabby male was the oldest, a silver and black calico queen was next. Along with two identical Gold and Silver tabbie toms. The two unmoving kittens pained both him and Demeter. The youngest was an identical female copy of Munkustrap, and the oldest was the spitting image of Bombalurina. Both Munkustrap and Demeter couldn't even look at the oldest kitten. both the unmoving kittens were females, Demeter was upset about losing two queen kits but she was happy that four survived. Suddenly a small meowing came from the table where the two kittens were. Jennyanydots rushed back into the den, running to the table she looked on in shock. The bundle of red and black fur started squirming around. Everyone looked on in shock as Jenny handed the kitten to Demeter.

Munkustrap looked on as the red kitten pushed the others out of the way for warmth. Both Demeter and Munkustrap smirked, 'She's just like Bombalurina.' He said sighing sadly.

Demeter rubbed the kitten gently under the chin and smiled softly. 'You don't think it's Bombalurina been rbeorn do you?' She asked.

Munkustrap studied the kitten, 'I don't know, I'm just glad that she's alive. Let's share the news.' he said as a round of applause sounded form outside.

Munkustrap smiled as he walked out, 'Five surving kittens.' He said happily as the other cats smiled and cheered.

Glancing in at the den and noticing that throughout all of this his mates own sister had missed everything he sighed, 'Almost Perfect.' He thought as he disapeared intot he den again.
