Chapter 17 – "The End is Near…"


The air ran cold. The silence lingered within its gentle gusts. It would have been peaceful…if it weren't for the two demons in feline bodies that had confronted our heroes. The devil cat, Deravity, glared at the French thieves. "GRRRR, to think that you, Frisk my best bandit, could betray me like this! I thought I could trust in you!"

"Mon Dieu! You Seigneur d'Enfer! (Lord of Hell)You lost my trust de day you slaughtered my son!" Frisk hissed, holding back tears.

"Scorn would have died anyway; he was weak, just like you…" the devilish feline growled back.

"ENOUGH TALK!"Macavity signalled to the guards behind him. "It's time to end this!" At the indication, the friends were surrounded by enemy cats. "Let's see how long you last on the frontline!" The Wild Runners sang from the sidelines as the battle began.

Alfa: It's not like I'm walking alone into the valley of the shadow of death
Stand beside one another, 'cause it ain't over yet
I'd be willing to bet that if we don't back down
You and I will be the ones that are holding the Crown in the end

All: When it's over, we can say, "Well done"
But not yet, 'cause it's only begun
So, pick up, and follow me, we're the only ones
To fight this thing, until we've won
We drive on and don't look back
It doesn't mean we can't learn from our past
All the things that we might've done wrong
We could've been doing this all along

The heroes lunged at their attackers. Knives and claws clashed, fire and lightning was shot and blood began to spill.

All: Everybody, with your claws raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside, or step aside
We're on the frontline.

Everybody, with your claws raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside, or step aside
We're on the frontline!

Somewhere on the battleground, a pair of icy blue eyes was upon Burmie. "Where's your pretty girlfriend, Burmieo Sensei?" a thin scruffy tan queen spat at the thief. "Vitalini!" he growl at his old student and the fight was on. Despite her size, Burmie had taught Vitalini well. He was no match for her. "You've gotten soft Burmie!" She soon had her mentor pinned down and was ready for the final blow. "Any last words, Sensei?" she snarled. "Yeah!" a voice came from above. Tugger pounced upon her back and through her off. "No one finishes him off but ME!" He hurled her into a wall, knocking her out. Burmie dusted himself off. "Thanks, man!" "Don't get used to it! I still hate you!" "Sure…"

All: And we'll be carrying on, until the day it doesn't matter anymore
step aside, you forgot what this is for
We fight to live, we live to fight
And tonight, you'll hear my battle cry
We live our lives on the frontlines
We're not afraid of the fast times
These days have opened up my eyes
And now, I see where the threat lies

Meanwhile, Deravity was watching the battle from the sidelines. With his shattered claw, his fighting was limited. He was waiting…waiting for the right moment to attack. Suddenly, he spotted an opening. Maj had just fallen over from the impact of an attack. "GRRRAAA!" he roared as he charged for the defenceless cat.

All: Everybody, with your claws raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside, or step aside
We're on the frontline

Everybody, with your claws raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside, or step aside
We're on the frontline.

Maj hit the floor. Something had pushed her aside. But what? The magical queen turned to see a sight that nearly crushed her heart. Deravity was standing over the seriously wounded Misto, who had pushed his true love out of the path of attack.

All: Echoed into background (We live our lives on the frontlines)
(We're not afraid of the fast times)
(We live our lives on the frontlines)
(We're not afraid)

The magic cat's heart felt like it split in two. "MISTO!" Maj rushed to his side and held him close. But as she feared, he wasn't breathing… his body lay motionless on the cold stone floor as a single tear rolled down her face. "Hehehehe… so much for your daring rescue. Too bad…you would have been a happy couple. HAHAHA!" the monstrous demon snarled. A soft light seemed to glow around her as Maj's sorrow turned to rage as she swiped at her lover's killer. "YOU BASTERED!" she screamed, her tear-filled eyes glowed a bright white. The battle almost seemed to stop at her cry. As she pounced on top of the evil feline, her body seemed to change.

All: (Loud) We've got to lead the way

Her fur went black with flecks of white; the flecks almost star shaped and her tail burned with intense light. She swung her paw across his face slicing the bridge of his nose. The pain seemed to surge through his whole body. "How-how can this be?" he thought to himself. Just then, Macavity entered the brawl by launching onto her back and pulling her off Deravity. But as he lunged for her head, she quickly dodged and sank her fangs into his hind leg burning it with her fire breath. "Impossible!" She tossed him away and went back for Deravity. He tried to run but she struck his side with the full force of her tail. The impact burned worse that fire. "I see now…I never should have underestimated this young queen!" he trembled as she charged for him yet again, "It's Felis! He's…he's lending her his power!"

All: (Loud) We've got to lead the way!

Everybody, with your claws raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside, or step aside
We're on the frontline

Everybody, with your claws raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside, or step aside
We're on the frontline

Everybody, with your claws raised high
Stand aside on the frontline
Everybody, with your claws raised high
Let me hear your battle cry

Everybody, with your claws raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside, or step aside
We're on the frontline!

He tried to get away…he had to get away! But Maj just kept pulling him back and inflicting more pain. It seemed like the end as she crushed and burned his good claw, when suddenly, "Maj, STOP THIS!" it was Shadow! Grabbing her paw, he pulled her close, embracing her as the battle ended and the two villains slinked away. "Please Sis, calm down…" And with that, the power reseeded and Maj was back to her old self. "Yes! We deed it Mademoiselle Maj!" Bella cheered. "Weer free! …Mademoiselle Maj?" Dazed and heartbroken, she slowly crawled over to her lover's side to hold him in her arms…one last time.

Maj: I'm so tired of being here, suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave
Your presence still lingers here and it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

You used to captivate me by your resonating light
Now, I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me, I've been alone all along

When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

"I'll n-never leave you, m-my love?" he whispers.
