Capezio's Story
by: Capezio

A small young black and white kitten sits upon an old
rocking chair up above dancing cats. She looked down
at the strange behavior of them. "What are they
doing?" she thought confusingly. She decided to go
around unnoticed for a while. She tried to quietly adjust her position when BAM!
The little kitten fell off the chair and onto the
ground bringing down piles of trash at the same time.
Larger cats came and surrounded her. She looked up
frightfully embarrassed and said with a goofy smile,"'ello."

"Oh! Poor thing. Are you okay little one?" Jellylorum asked as she stuck her paw out for the little kitten. She grabbed her paw and Jellylorum helped her up to her feet. She smiled nervously at the older cats. A gray tabby cat soon appeared, he was not smiling. He just stared at the kitten. Then he turned toJellylorum and said, "Who is this?" Jellylorum put her arm around the little new kitten."Oh Munkustrap, it's just a poor little lost kitten!"She replied."Don't be so sure! She could be one of Macavity's!"Everyone gasped except Jellylorum. "Oh Munkustrap have a heart!" Jellylorum said. "I don't want ANYTHING to do with her!" Munkustrap said as he walked away. The little kitten felt so bad.Then a large black and white tom appeared before her. "Hello kid! I am the magical, Mister Mistoffelees!" he bowed before her. Then another tom's voice said from behind the crowd, "The original conjuring cat!" A tall thin tom came forward. "And I am the Rum Tum Tugger!"he said. Mister Mistoffelees whispered to the kitten, "The RumTum Tugger is a terrible bore."The kitten laughed. "Now Misto, is that anyway to impress the lady?" a new tom asked. "I am Pouncival. Nice to meet you." He stuck out his paw. She shook it. "And what is your name?" he asked."Capezio," she said in a small voice."Capezio! What a lovely name!" Mistofelees said. He shook her paw too. Then he turned to Pouncival. "You look about her age! Why don't you show her around?" Pouncival nodded and grabbed her paw dragging her away from the crowd.

"And this is Etcetra and Electra!" Pouncival said.Capezio shook their hands."Hello Capezio. Welcome to the Junkyard!" "Where did you come from?" Electra asked."Umm...I used to live in an alley up town," she replied. "And this is Mungojerrie," Pouncival held out his hand and waited and rolled his eyes. Then a girl cat identical to Mungojerrie jumped out."AAAANNNNDDDD RRRUUUmpleTeazer!" She stuck out her paw. "Nice ta meet cha!" "And THIS....... Is Victoria and TumbleBrutus." They talked a while but Capezio was distracted by the way the tall grey tabby was looking at her. She turned toPouncival, "Umm..how come that cat does not like me?""Munkustrap is always under a lot of stress. He's looking out for Macavity," Pouncival explained."Who's..."Macavity?" the kitten asked."Macavity is an evil cat. Last year he stole Old Deuteronomy from us." Pouncival looked in Old D's direction and smiled. Old D nodded back and smiled at the kitten. "And Munkustrap fought him off! And Mister Mistoffelees brought him back magically!" Capezio smiled excitedly, "Magically????" "HEY!!! Don't forget about me!!!!" A black and white tom came and knocked Pouncival over."You know this is getting irritating," Pouncival said."Well...how dare you give all the credit to Munkustrap! I helped!" The black and white tom said as he stuck out his chest. "And another thing! How come you never introduced me to this lovely young kitten?" He took Capezio's paw into his own and kissed it gently. Capezio smiled."I am Alonzo. Who might you be?" "I am Capezio. I just came here this morning." "Oh! Welcome to the Junkyard, has Pounci been treating you well?" "Yes Alonzo now leave her alone. You're not impressing anyone," Pouncival said as got up and shook the dust off of him. Capezio giggled.She liked Alonzo. He was very handsome."Oh, Excuse me Capezio. I must go speak with Victoria. I will see you later!" Pouncival said as he ran off.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Alonzo layed on top of the broken tv as Capezio crawled inside of it. "So how did you get here?" Alonzo asked."Well...umm..I was chased." Alonzo leaned over to look at her. "By what?" "Pollicles. You see..I lived in the city alley for as long as I know." "Oh....didn't yer parents live someplace nicer?" Alonzo asked."Like a human's house?"Alonzo saw tears build up in Capezio's blue eyes."I don't remember having parents...or siblings. I only remember a box in an alley. That was my home. I remember people coming and throwing food at me and little boys chasing me with their bikes. "Alonzo jumped down and crawled into the tv with her. He nuzzled her as Capezio started to cry. "Then one day 3 pollicles came and ripped my home. It was horrible. They were worse than any little boys.They had claws. I remember bright lights and cars."Alonzo gave her a sorrowful look. "But I kept running and finally made it here." Alonzo hugged her. "I am so sorry Capezio....." Then he looked at her. She was so young but she'd been through so much! "You know you're welcome to stay in the Junkyard as long as you want. Maybe my owners will adopt you so you can know what a real home is like." She smiled. "Let's go get some thing to eat!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"mm..boy that was tasty." Capezio licked her lips and walked next to Alonzo. "That WAS good."He walked into the Junkyard and jumped up onto the rocking chair. Capezio followed him. He sat on top of the chair and Capezio was underneath it. Capezio yawned and stretched and curled up. Soon she was asleep.Alonzo looked over the seat to see Capezio sleeping.He reached down his paw and playfully batted her ear.She touched it with her paw thinking it was a bug or something. He did it again and she flicked her ear. He did it one more time and she stood up hitting her head on the chair. She looked up to see a grinning Alonzo.She rubbed her head and Alonzo laughed. She layed backdown. Alonzo jumped off of the chair and sat down next to Capezio. He grinned at her and curled up next to her. A smile came across Capezio's face.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Capezio awoke to here fighting and screaming. She stood up and hit her head again on the chair. But it didn't hurt that time.Alonzo was yelling at an ugly tom. She thought, "Oh my MACAVITY!" She jumped off of the chair and onto the ground. Macavity looked down at her and laughed."And WHO is this little RUNT?" Alonzo glared at him. "Macavity don't try anything....This is between you and me."Capezio looked up to Alonzo, "What's going on?"Macavity laughed, "So..Is this your little sister??""Well...yes she is Macavity."Capezio smiled and stuck her tongue out at Macavity, Macavity glared at her and clawed her face."Now she looks like MY little sister! BBWWAAAHHHAAA!"Macavity yelled.Tears built up in Capezio's eyes. She touched her cheek. Blood dripped from it. Alonzo growled at him. He struck him across the face and bit his shoulder. Macavity yelled and ran for the kitten. He picked her up by her neck and threw her across the junkyard.Alonzo bit him on the face and clawed his back feriously. Macavity clawed back and ran for Capezio.Just as Macavity struck her again Alonzo stepped infront of Capezio. Capezio crawled between his legs and moaned. Alonzo growled."Macavity. Leave. She has done nothing wrong. Leave NOW!" Macavity glared at him and walked away. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Alonzo bent down to where the little black and white kitten lay. He licked his paw and rubbed her face where Macavity clawed her. She smiled at him. Then he fell to the ground. Capezio rushed to his side and slowely began to clean his cuts. She licked him on the cheek and curled up next to him and cried.

EPILOGUE:Alonzo was not hurt. A little minor scratches. Capezio still has a scar across her face. Alonzo and Capezio are still together. She has loved him more than anything. Alonzo is always looking out for her. Everyone considers them brother and sister and they like that because Capezio now has a brother.
