Chapter 6- Truth Revealed

The next morning the previous days happenings were still fresh in their minds but a new day had dawned on the junkyard and the problems could be tackled head on with a clearer mind.

Demeter was still distraught over the loss of Lurina but had to be with her new kittens. Munkustrap on the other hand had to find Lurina, but he had no idea of how to get there, he had heard rumours that Macavity had changed his hide out a few years before.

Alonzo, Tugger, Skimble, Admetus, Mungojerry and Plato, along with Tumblebrutus and Pouncival sat at the tyre. Munkustrap was rubbing his fore head in deep thought and frustration while the other toms chatted quietly.

In Jellylorum's den Jellylorum, Jennyanydots, Cassandra, Exotica, Rumpleteaser, Victoria, Olivia, Etcetera and Electra were seated talking as well. Jenny was shaking her ehad as she kept glancing towards her own den where Demeter was situated with her new kittens. No one apart from Munkustrap, Jellylorum, Demeter and herself had seen the new litter, and they wanted to keep it that way, the finding of the oldest female kitten being a spitting image of Bombalurina was scary to all of the cats, apart from Demeter who couldn't even look at the kitten without her eyes tearing up.

Jenny had taken the young kitten away from Demeter for a little while so she could inspect her. The small red queen was definetly smaller than the rest of her litter despite being born first. She had skinny legs that would most definetly turn into the long ones that Bombalurina had had. She also had the white bib and black markings, in ehr coat she had a little bit more orange in it which was obviously from Demeter's own fur. The eyes were different, Bombalurina's had been ice blue while this kitten had bright green eyes, just like her mother. It was hard to tell if this small kitten was the re-incarnation of the Scarlet queen, but the characteristics were definetly there.

Jenny zoned back into the conversation and glanced at the queens. 'The toms will be planning on going out and searching for Lurina and Macavity, that means we will have to stay guard over the tribe and junkyard to make sure nothing happens.' She said sighing.

Rumpleteaser glanced up, 'They wouldn't leave us completely defenceless though? Not with Demeter with a new litter, the risk is to great, Macavity might lure them into a trap and then come after Demeter.' She said shaking her head half upset and half angrily.

Cassandra pursed her lips, 'Teaser is right, it's to risky, our main concern is Demeter at the moment, we can't let the kittens or her be involved.' She paused before starting to sob. 'Was it too much to ask for him to leave us alone after he killed BOMBA!' She shouted bursting into a fresh wave of tears.

Cassandra's outburst caught the toms attention and they rushed over. 'What's going on?' Munkustrap asked concerned lookign at Cassnadra's tear stained face and the tearful faces of the other queens.

Jellylorum breathed in keeping her resolve in check. 'We were just discussing what is going to happen if you all go out looking. What if you get lure dinto a trap giving Macavity or his evil biddies a chance to get into the junkyard and injure us, or worse, Demeter and the kittens?' She said.

Munkustrap looked at the faces of the other queens and noticed the looks of fear they had, even Rumpleteaser who generally remained calm and never showed her fear was close to breaking out in tears.

Munkustrap then realised what the queens were saying. he sighed and the other toms sat down.

Tugger glanced around, 'So what do we do? We can't leave you guys completely defenceless, but we can't leave Lurina with Macavity, I think the ebst thing we coudl do is to do some scouting around and try to find some things out about Macavity's tribe.' He said glancing at Munkustrap.

Munkustrap nodded, 'It's a good idea, but all the hench cats know who we are, all the queens and toms have gone out before.' He said.

Olivia coughed lightly, as all the eyes turned to ehr she slid down a little bit. Olivia was a cream queen nearly identical in colours to Etcetera but with thin lines instead of bold stripes. She was Etcetera's older sister. Jellylorum glanced at her, 'Yes dear?' She asked.

Olivia glanced at her paws, 'I haven't gone out to much, and when I have it ahsn't been with any Jellicles, and I know it may be risky, but I can't go out by myself this time, but, well Sillabub and Jemima have not long reached adult hood and haven't been out before, and Macavity isn't to aware of them, and even if he is, none of his henches are.' She said glancing around.

There were murmours of agreement before they noticed Jelly and Jenny talking in hushed voices. Munkustrap glanced at them, 'What's the problem?' He asked.

Jellylorum glanced at Munkustrap, 'Munk, you knwo what the problem is, it's to risky, those two, you know why.' She said. Jenny was behind her nodding.

Munkustrap then realised what they meant, 'I know it's risky but they are our only hope.' He said.

All the other cats in the tribe apart from Munkustrap, Jellylorum, Jennyanydots, Skimbleshanks, Olivia and Asparagus glanced around the faces of the cats.

'What's the risk, what don't we know?' Asked Victoria confused.

Jellylorum glanced at her daughter, 'Dear, it's not important.' She said waving her paw.

Victoria pursed her lips, 'It involves the tribe, and our kittens, we need to know.'

Jellylorum bit her lip and glanced arounf for help, but they were cut from their silence by a quiet voice speaking up.

'They are worried Macavity might realise who we are.' Said Jemima as Sillabub stood beside her.

Rumpleteaser raised an eyebrow, 'So? How does that matter? He could recognise any of us.' She said confused.

Sillabub and Jemima moved clsoer to the table. Sillabub looked at the other cats, 'You's all know the story of how we became part of the tribe, you know that we aren't really related to Jelly or Jenny. The thing you don't know is is that we are related to Jenny, but in a completely different way.' She said glancing around the table.

The other cats looked confused and Jemima continued, 'What Sillabub means is look at us, who do we remind you of? Look at our colours, our fur patterns, our body shapes, who do we resemble?' She said.

The first cat to speak was Tugger, he let out a gasp, 'Noway, it's not possible.' he said shocked. Exotica looked at him confused before Rumpleteaser realised.

'Oh, oh, you mean.' She trailed off looking at Sillabub and Jemima who nodded. She continued, 'Macavity's your father!' She exclaimed shocked.

The other cats eyes widened at the explanation and then it dawned on them that the resmblance was quite uncanny.

Exotica who ahd always had an eye for the hidden thigns then studied the queens, 'But that's not all, is it?' She asked.

The two girls shook their ehads. Sillabub rubbed her paws together, 'The other thing you don't know, is that our mother was Bombalurina.' A collective gasp resounded around the table as realisation dawned on everyone in the room.

Tugger was shocked, 'So Macavity's your father, Bomablurina's your mother, you are actually twins and...'He trailed off shaking his head. 'This is too much.' He said standing up and walking away. Exotica also stood up, 'I'll make sure he's alright.' She said sadly as she elft after Tugger.

The whole room was silent before the quiet voice of Electra spoke, 'So how do we do this then?' She asked as the other cats bowed their heads in thought.

In the warehouse Macavity was sitting on a large cushioned chair staring straight ahead of him. The figure facing him remained unmoving, 'The kittens have been born, it's only a matter of time before they come looking, remain on guard and don't let your defences dow, make sure she stays out of the way and hidden, we wouldn't want anything to go wrong after all the hard work now would we?' He said as the figure nodded and scampered out the door.

Macavity chuckled to himself, 'It's almost time.'
