Mina woke up from her nap. "Not again." she moaned. "Not what again?" asked Patchy. "Hey Patchy. I had a bad dream. I had hoped I had left it in the past. But it's always there, waiting." "Tell me." Patchy sais sitting down next to Mina. She told Patchy about what happened before she joined the Jellicles. How her mother was killed & her sister captured by Macavity. Meanwhile a gray blob was watching them from the shadows. "Grab Mina & then get out." Belladonna thought. She leapt from the darkness.
Patchy and Mina yelped in surprise. Belladonna snatched Mina & ran. "Mina!!" yelled Patchy, but Mina didn't answer, she had already blacked out. Patchy ran to Misto & Munkustrap. "Guys!" She breathed in & out hard. "Guys! It's Mina.. she's gone!" Patch collapsed on the dirt. "She was kidnapped by a dark gray cat with lavender eyes." Misto & Munkustrap looked at each other. "Macavity?" "Yeah. Probably." The cats in no time flat got a party together to go get Mina. "Wait! No! Don't go look for her!" yelled Mungojerrie The others asked why. "I used to work for Macavity remember. Let me go in and see what's going on, then I'll tell you guys what's up." "He's right." the other cats agreed "Mungo. tomorrow I want you to go to Macavity's Layer and see what's going on." said Munkustrap. "Hey! Where am I ?" Mina asked. The room she was in was a cell. It looked like it was part of a basement. The door opened. Mina smelled something evil but familiar at the same time. "Who are you?" Mina snarled. Belladonna stepped into the room. Mina's mouth drooped open. "You're what I felt earlier." Belladonna smirked. Her eyes flashing wickedly. "Bell, don't you recognize me? It's me Mina, Midnight Light-" Belladonna backhanded her. "Your not my sister! My "sister" abandoned me! She left me to that animal who is our father!" Belladonna hissed angerly. "Abandoned? I didn't abandon you. I was scared. I didn't know what to do." Belladonna looked at Mina with hatred. "Your lying. My sister left me & our mother. Because of HER my mother is dead! And I am Macavity's slave." Belladonna turned and left. "She doesn't remember me." Mina said to the silence.The door opened. Bell & Mungo slipped closer to Mina. Mina took their paws in hers. "Hang on." she said. Mina started concentrating hard. All three of them turned into fog. As soon as they were all fog, Mina slipped them out the door and reformed. Mungo knocked out the guard. "That was fun." he said. They made their way down the hall. "And where do you think you're going?" hissed Macavity. All of the cats fought. 'Come on!" yelled Mungo. "We gotta get outta here!" Right as she turned, Macavity struck at Belladonna. "No!!" screamed Mina. "You little low life..." Mina let out a string of curses at Macavity. "How DARE you hurt my sister!!" Mina launched herself at Macavity. She landed some good punches before he threw her off. "Come on Mina!!" shouted Mungo as he picked up Belladonna. They ran out & headed back to the yard. "Guys! Help!" yelled Mina as the ran in. Old Deuternonmy, Coricopat, Misto, & Tantomile came out. After a few minutes, they pulled back. Misto pulled Mina aside. "I'm sorry Mina, she's not gonna make it." Mina went over to Belladonna. "Bell. Bell, look at me." she said "I have to tell you something. Macavity isn't our father. Old Deuteronomy is." "I know. I'll miss you." coughed out Belladonna. Old Deuteronomy opened up the stairway to the Heavyside Layer. "Up, Up, Up past the Russell Hotel. Up, Up, Up, to the Heavyside Layer. Up, Up, Up, past the Russell Hotel. Up, Up, Up, to the Heavyside Layer. Up, Up, Up, past the Jellicle Moon. Up, Up, Up, to the Heavyside Layer. The Mystical Divinity of Unashamed Felinity, round the cathedral rang "VIVAT!" Life to the Everlasting Cat!" sang the other cats as Mina carried Belladonna up to the Heavyside. "Bye Bell." Mina kissed her goodbye & walked back down the stairs.
