"Where could she be!?!" Growltiger howled as he paced the deck. "Ever since she went and got them stinking pearls she's been sneaking off. She better not be with a Tom! I can't bel... ARRRRGH!!" He knocked the nearest tom off into the water. "Hi dear!" A singsong voice rang from the other side of the barge. "Where..." He softened as he saw her fave. They came close and began to sing a love song. Growltiger though had an aweful problem with staying concentrated and often looked away at other things as he sang. Grittlebone glared as he sang his final not.

Then Genghis gave the signal, to his fierce mongolian hoards. They jumped out of hiding and, after dealing with the crew, advanced on the couple. Grittlebone shrieked but then soon dissapeared and the Siamese advanced on Growltiger. After a violent swordfight Growltiger found Genghis' sword tip on his neck. The cold steel sent chills up his spine. Genghis made him walk to the plank. Growltiger slowly walked towards the deep, black, dark and murky waters. His eyes filled with fear on the brink of tears. As he stepped off the plank he looked behind to see Grittlebone and MaCavity paw in paw watching with a smile, Grittle waved. *Splash* Growltiger sunk to the bottom, his last words were, "How could..." Now he rested forever in piece at the bottom of the sea.

Genghis walked up to MaCavity and bowed, "'tis don, seer." Cav smiled, "Very good Genghis, I promote you to Master Thief!" Genghis smiled only slightly then with a last bow and a, "Thank you" he left. Cav then turned to Grittlebone, "So my dear, you're free to be my mate!" She smiled seductively and leaned in close so he could feel her breath on his ear and whispered, "In your wildest dreams." With that she turned and ran off. Cav leaped after her but just missed. He looked at his paw, all he had left was handful of white fur. He burst into tears. Trek cleared off the strays and turned to his friend.. "Cav I'm ... sorrry." Cav looked up his lips trembling, "She'll pay, all Cats like her will pay, the Jellicles will pay! I killed a Tom for her and they will pay for his death!"

Trek helped his friend home, he hadn't realized it. That Grittlebone was the rebellious Jellicle who had been exiled from the tribe. If only he'd known. He wouldn't have let Cav fall son deeply in love with her. Now Cav's life was wrecked, he'd killed a cat, and now he'd do it again. Thier lives would change... Forever.
