im sorry last chapter was so short but i wanted to put training into one chapter all together so the last chapter wouldnt be huge.
"ALL 4'S 5'S AND 6'S LINE UP INFRONT OF YOUR GROUP LEADER!" yelled the large brown tom. "i think he has a yelling problem.." Bellian commented. "Anger Issues.." Jake said in a high tone singsong voice from the other side of Teazer. Teazer only stared at the brown tom nodding with a blank face "Staroids..." She blinked and kept nodding. Bellian and Jake laughed. Then Jake and Bellian went to their line while Teazer went to hers. She made sure to not be the first as to not have to stand right infront of Mungojerrie.
Jerrie nodded as he counted up his cats. "9. Awroight. Follow Moi. Our loine is gonna lead." He turned and the line followed him to what they knew to be the training room.
As everyone stepped inside it was dark as night. But night when you are under a car in an alley on a rainy night. THAT dark. Teazer could barely see even with her night vision.
As someone said all three groups were in the lights flicked on. It was HUGE. But it was empty. One side of the room however was COMPLETELY mirrored. The whole wall was a mirror. She stared at it a bit, having never seen that ever. But then quickly looked to Mungojerrie as he spoke to his group, which was in a line, the line pointing to the mirror, the cats in it facing the right side of the line, or the middle of the room you could say, and the other two groups sat by the door, going along the back wall opposite the mirror wall as instructed by the big brown tom.
"Now. Befow we star' oi would loike to say this." Teazer noticed out of the corner of her eye the big brown tom face palmed his forehead and the gray tom began to chuckle silently. "Froiday noights, Satuhdays, and Sundays a'e supposed ta be our days off. Like a weekend broike. BUT. YOU Ass'oles decoided to join on satuhday an' the boss insists that we teach ya the followin day ya are soigned in. SO. Thank's fo' taken our day off away ya jerks."
The brown tabby was now shaking his head, still having his hand up to his forehead like he was watching something a dumb kitten would do, and the gray tom was holding his stomach and mouth as he tried to laugh silently.
"Now. Down ta business. Today we a'e gonna see 'ow good ya a'e at self defense." He spoke loud enough for the other two groups to hear him as well. "We a'e gonna 'ave somehone coe at ya from maneh differen' oingles. As we progress we will bloind fold ya. Cat closest to the mirror goes fi'st." He said as he pointed to a frightened looking orange and silver patched queen. He motioned for her to come to the center of the room where he was.
When she was there he grabbed her shoulders and said to the line "Where she goes is where area one will be." He then turned her around and spoke quietly to her while pointing to an area near the mirror.
He did this with two more cats, area 2 and 3, dispersing them around the room, but not too far apart. He told the others to back up all the way to the wall and wait their turn. When one cat finishes then the next closest to the mirror is to take their place. Halestrom and the brown tom took over the other two areas, Jerrie stayed at area one.
Teazer watched the lead toms come at the henchcats in training, but the henchcats failed to keep the lead toms from pinning them. They were soon sent to the back of the line of the 4's line. She became bored. She counted how many away she was. She was 4th in line.
She let her gaze wonder and soon found Jake. He was talking to Bellian. They then talked to a tom next to Bellian, adding him and two other toms into their conversation.
Soon Teazer heard a whistle sounded and Mungojerrie looked at the other two lead toms and they shook their head no and he said aloud "No one has kept us from pinning 'em. Next." and the next three cats went to Mungojerrie, Halestrom, and the large brown tom. She had heard the younger toms call him Mudd, but she wasnt sure if that was his name or a fur trait. She giggled to herself. But she then decided to not let anything distract her so she wouldnt embarrase herself by not knowing when to walk up to her leader.
She heard a whistle a few minutes later and Mungojerrie again looked to the toms and then said "No one has kept us from pinnin 'em. Next." Teazer walked up to Mungojerrie and just stood there.
He turned around to face her and sighed. "A'e ya readeh?" He looked as though he knew he would pin her fast and easy. Just another small queen. Looked more like a kit to him. But he paid no mind. Teazer nodded once and waited.
Jerrie just then rushed her and pushed her shoulders back to try to make her loose balance but she put her leg behind her and twisted, making Jerrie fall to the ground on his side. She stood there and stared at him lying on the ground surprised. "Awroight. Vereh good. So ya can 'andle easeh level. Le's kick i' up a notch." He said to her as he got up and dusted off. She could tell his pride was a little hurt.
He walked up to her slowly, then grabbed her wrist and twisted it behind her back and tried to push her to the ground but she bent over and crouched, then shoved her haunches up into the air, making Jerrie flip over her and land on his back. He got up and hissed slightly under his breathe. Teazer could tell he was getting angry and she found it amusing.
He clenched his fists and rushed her again but with more force than she expected. He was able to make her fall but she arched her back so she rolled and stood right back up before he could pounce on her to pin her. He didnt even stop before he was at her again, grabbing her arms while he was behind her and crossing them over her chest.
She couldnt move then thought of a great idea. She turned her palms out and pushed them above her head and was able to turn around but Jerrie still had a hold of her wrists and held them parallel to each other as the cats glared at each other bending over slightly.
Teazer quickly slid under Jerrie between his legs and made him fall on his back then let go of her wrists. She tried to get over to him to pin him but when she had her hands almost pushing his shoulders down he grabbed her wrists again and flipped over to where he pinned her, but she quickly pushed her arms out and made Jerrie fall.
Teazer then flipped them over and flipped Jerrie over again so he was on his belly and she used her right leg to hold down his left one as she pulled his left arm up high behind his back and he couldnt reach her with his right.
He hissed slightly in pain and anger as he used his right foot to roll over and grab around her shoulders with his leg then grabbed her shoulders and pinned her down but she quickly lifted him off with her legs and he landed on his back. She looked up and she saw he was looking up at her to.
They were both out of breathe and just stared at each other. Teazer then noticed there was no movement at all going on in the training room. Everyone was watching her and Mungojerrie.
She quickly got up and stepped back a bit as the larger calico tom stood and glared at her as though she had told his mother a bad thing he had done. The brown tom walked over just then.
"Well i'll be damned. If this little queen didnt just stop THE Mungojerrie from pinning her!" He looked at Teazer in disbelief then to Jerrie with a smile. "Shut up Mudd. I was going easy on her." Jerrie said as he watched the wall to his right where no one was. "Sure didnt look that way Jerrie. Sure didnt look that way." He said as he raised a whistle to his lips.
Everyone was already staring so Teazer thought there was really no need for that thing, because it hurt everyones ears. Well. HER ears atleast she knew were starting to hurt from it.
"We have the FIRST to keep one of us from pinning her. Good Job. Now to the back of the line. Next." he then walked back to his area as Teazer walked to the end of her line, everyone still staring at her.
After the last three of the 4's went and no one was able to stop the lead toms from pinning them, everyone scurried to lunch. They got the same slop they had gotten for breakfast, and were able to choke it down, being very hungry.
Bellian and Jake chatted with Teazer about how good she was at keeping the tom from pinning her. When lunch was over the same routine happened for 5's and 6's. But no one was able to keep the toms from pinning them.
It was then time for dinner and when Teazer went to greet Bellian and Jake, she couldnt find them. She then caught sight of the bright white tom and his cream and brown colored friend. She began to worry though as she noticed Bellian was argueing with a big looking tom.
She hurried to go to the small circle that had formed around them. She pushed her way through and stood by Jake. "WHERES YOUR DRESS BELL?" The large completely dark gray tom was teazing Bellian.
"Call me Bell one more time and I will-" Bellian started to threaten but then got cut off by the larger tom "YOU WILL WHAT?" He got right up in Bellians face and Bellian only hissed at him "Try me." The large tom smirked. "No. i'd rather not. Bell." He added afterwards and Bellian punched him square in the face, stunning the larger tom slightly.
"OH NO YOU DIDNT!" another large tom yelled as he went to punch Bellian but Jake blocked his punch for Bellian and punched the tom in the gut. Then the another of the large toms tried to kick Jake in the back of the head when Jake couldnt see him. Just before it made contact with Jake, Teazer grabbed the ankle of the cat and twisted it making the tom fall.
Then it was a total brawl. The cats around them cheered for their favorite cat or their favored side. Or for whoever would make a good punch. Jake fought the tom he had hit, Bellian the tom he had hit, Teazer the one she had made fall.
Bellian and the large tom he faced were mainly trying to put each other into headlocks and grab each other around the throats. Bellian and the tom he faced were both large. Not muscular, but stocky.
Jake and his opponent were both rather tall and muscular. They mainly threw punches and kicks at each other.
Teazer and her rival were both fairly skinny and were mainly throwing punches and trying to pin each other down so they could throw more punches. She was good at that. So she was able to pin down the larger tom alot and throw good punches.
She felt someone grab her shoulder roughly but knew it wasnt the tom under her because his hands were under her knees at his sides. She turned ready to punch as the hand pulled her forcefully away from the tom only to find that it was Mungojerrie.
She widened her eyes and knew they were in trouble. She looked at her comrads and noticed they and the large toms were being seperated by Mudd and Hale.
She looked down at the tom she had pinned and he had a bloody nose, cut lip, swollen right eye, and a few good yellowing bruises and cuts on his face. He looked more messed up than everyone else.
Jake only had a bloody nose and some cuts on his face. Bellian had a bruise below his eye without a patch over it and red marks showing through his cream fur around his neck. His opponent looked about the same only instead of a bruise he had a bloody nose from where Bellian had first hit him. Jakes opponent had a cut on his lip, cuts on his face, and a bloody nose. Teazer could only feel blood trailing down her right nostril around the outline of the right side of her lips then trailing down her chin. She smirked slightly. It had been a WHILE since her and her gang of friends had had a brawl like that.
Mudd cleared his throat then said "If you want to kill each other, save it for missions or on the weekends. Not at dinner time. Go to the infirmary to have them clean your blood up then go to dinner then straight to the . I trust you will show them the way." Jerrie tried to protest but was cut off by a stern glare given by the larger brown tom.
Jake, Teazer, and Bellian walked together. The three toms they had fought did the same thing as they all six followed Jerrie to the infirmary. Jerrie explained to the nurses what happened and that they just need to be patched up slightly.
The ones in the main care were Jake, the tom he had fought, and the tom Teazer fought. Teazer decided to wait up for Jake while Bellian went ahead to the cafeteria to save his friends a seat.
Teazer sat at a bed near the entrance to the infirmary, because the infirmary was really just a large room with three rows of bed going down the long room. At the end was a door and beside the door a large desk with papers and files on it. There were a few other cats in the infirmary but Teazer paid no mind to them.
She flinched slightly as she felt someone sit on the same bed as her. She looked over to find Mungojerrie sitting on the opposite side of her, leaning back on his arms so he could talk to her.
"So whot 'appened?" he asked in a firm tone with an expretionless face. Teazer shrugged "Somehone wos messin with moi friend. Oi 'ad to 'elp 'im." She said as she looked around. He nodded then turned to her again.
"'ow did ya know 'oh ta foight loike tha?" He questioned. it had actually been bugging him since she had fought him and he was skeptical that she might be a spy from another gang.
"Oi 'ad ta know 'ow ta defend moiself. Oi wos a queen livin on tha streets." Mungojerrie nodded and got up and walked away. Rumpleteazer found it rude.
A few moments later Jake came to meet her. "Is that guy bothering you?" He asked grabbing his queenfriends hand and them walking towards the cafeteria. "No. 'e wos jus' askin whot 'appened. Probably ta tell a 'igher authority." She shrugged as they walked to the cafeteria.
While there Teazer got her food after Jake so she was in line after he was gone and she had to walk past the large toms they had fought earlier. They were staring at her. She cocked her at them as if saying "WHAT ARE YOU LOOKIN AT?" but said nothing. They flinched slightly and turned around to their food only after one last glare.
She also had to pass the leader toms table and she was stopped by them. Mudd said to her "No more brawls. We dont need injured cats to train." Teazer nodded and glanced up at Hale and Jerrie who were whispering to each other but then looked at her, as thouth they were whispering about her. She only rolled her eyes as she sat down at the table.
Everyone swallowed the last bit of their disgusting meal without a word throughout dinner. She gave Jake a peck on the cheek and departed with the 4's to go to bed.
She layed there for a moment when she realized her nose began to bleed again. Lights were already out and everyone was in bed. She crept out of her bed and snuck out of the door silently. She creeped over to a closet and searched through.
Inside of it she found blankets, weapons, belts, mouse traps, such an odd array of things, she thought to herself. She then found some napkins and used them to stop her nose from bleeding.
She closed the closet quietly when she heard a noise down the hall. She was a very curious cat, so she couldnt help herself from creeping down it. She noticed toms sneeking out of a room. She figured out it was the room Jake was staying in. She eyed the toms. they seemed like trouble makers to her.
She silently followed them as they wound down a twisting hall to a closet then pulled out a small hat box with mouse traps in it. They dug through the unset mouse traps and pulled out 4 beers, enough for everyone to carry one. Then they pulled out 4 more. Then 4 more. So everyone had three. They then crept up the stairs leading to the roof.
Teazer waited for them to get out of the door befor she began to go up the stairs, only to be stopped by a hand on her wrist. She was about to scream when she turned around to face Mungojerrie.
Mungojerrie only stared at her, still holding her whispered to her "Whot a'e ya troyin ta do? Get ya'self in trouble? Raped? Caught past curfew?" He shook his head. "No. Oi had a nose bleed. Then oi saw tha toms an' oi wondahed where they we'e goin. Whoy a'ent ya goin aftah THEM instead?" She asked confused.
Mungojerrie slightly pulled her wrist to get her to walk with him back to the barracks. "Oi been seein' them sneekin' out. Oi know. Oi was waitin for 'em to ge' ta tha beer. 'his elps in a few ways fo' moi." He smiled slightly.
Teazer quietly prodded "Loike..." Jerrie made a laughing sigh and said "Oi ge' ta moike 'em regre' i' tomorrow when they oll 'ave 'angovehs. An' now oi know where some extra beer is 'idden." he sirked to himself.
"Boiy tha woiy. Oi nevah go' ya noime." He added. "Rumpleteazah. But please coll me Teazah." She replied softly. "'ow old a'e ya? Ya seem really smoll." He said. "oim 14. Goin' ta be 15 next week." She added because she hated it when people treated her very young. The tom raised his eyebrows at her. "14?" He asked bewildered. "15 next week." She added to his comment.
"Oi was 15 when oi joined moiyself." He said. "'ow old a'e ya now?" She asked. "Oim 17 now. oi know. Young to be so 'igh up in class."
He opened the door quielty for Teazer as he said "Well. Bettah ge' back ta ya bed. G'noight Teazah." Teazer crawled into her bed and so did Mungojerrie. She smiled slightly, and quickly fell asleep.
