*************
Munkustrap, Alonzo, Plato, and Jazzmica were sitting in the Junk Yard. "Where ARE they?" hissed Plato. "This isn't like them. They're normally on time." Jazz rolled on his side. "Don't worry. They'll be here." "Any idea where they could be Jazz?" asked both Alonzo and Munku. "Not a clue." he replied. Victoria came up to them. "Hey Jazz. Hey guys." she said pouncing on Jazz's tummy. "You waiting for Mistica, MoonbeamDancer, and Cali?" The guys nodded and went "Yep. Yep. Yeah, and Un-huh." "Any ideas on where they could be?" asked Alonzo. Victoria looked up from playing with Jaz's tail, which he promptly bopped her on the nose with. Victoria swatted at him. Jazz rolled his black and white tiger-striped body to his feet, and batted back at her. "Uh, Victoria, you were about to say?" said Munkustrap. "Oh, yeah." She stopped playing with Jazz and got down to talking. "Um, Mistica and 'Dancer are on their way here, and Cali is busy drooling over Rum Tum Tugger." Alonzo growled when he heard this. "Sorry 'Lonzo." squeaked Victoria when she saw the look of anger on his face. "Not your fault, Cali's tom-crazy Vic." Plato said rubbing agaist his mate to calm her down. "He's right Vic. Not you fault. But I think it's time I had a talk with Cali about her "thing" with Tugger." said Alonzo.
Mistica and MoonbeamDancer walked though the yard. "Where were we supposed to meet them again?" asked Mistica. "By the hunk of junk cars. Come on." said MoonbeamDancer. flicking her tail. "Hey wait up!" yelled a voice. Cali came running around the corner. "Guys wait!" 'Dancer and Mistica turned around. "Hurry up slow poke!" they shouted. As Cali ran up to them, her sisters caught a whiff of something. "Hey you smell that?" Mistica asked MoonbeamDancer as Cali ran by." Yeah. It smelled like Cali had been with Tugger, but I thought she cut things off with him."
The girls reached the cars in a matter of minutes. Mistica said hi to her mate Munkustrap. "Wonder what their kittens will look like. They look so much alike, except where Mistica is white Munku is black and where he is white she is black" thought MoonbeamDancer "Hey guys." said Cali. The other cats noticed that the young calico smelled of another cat. Alonzo hissed when he smelled this. "Cali, we have to talk." he said, coming up to her. "But Alonzo, I thought we were gonna..." Cali started to say. "NOW Cali!!" barked Alonzo. Alonzo and Cali left. "Cali's in trouble now." Mistica thought aloud to the group. The other agreed.
Cali and Alonzo walked over to their dryer, and jumped on top. Alonzo just came out and asked the question he had been dreading the answer to. "Cali, how long have you been seeing Tugger, behind my back? I thought you cut it off with him when we became mates." "I did Alonzo." "DON'T YOU DARE LIE TO ME!!" Alonzo growled dangerously. He grabbed Cali by the shoulders "God, Cali, do I really mean THAT little to you? Do I mean SO little to you that you CHEAT on me with Tugger? If you wanted our relationship to be like that you could of told me! I gave up Cassandra and all the others JUST FOR YOU! And this is how you repay me??" Cali's eyes shone like green glass, from her tears. "I'm sorry Alonzo, I never, ever meant to hurt you." Alonzo snorted. "At least tell me WHY you did it?" he said "I don't know." she replied wiping the tears from her eyes. "That's it? You "don't know"? That's your reason?" Alonzo shot back. He thought about it for a moment. "That's it," he growled to her. "he can have you. Cheating ways and all." He jumped off the dryer and started to run off. "Alonzo wait! What do you mean he can have me?" Cali yelled as she ran after him. "Don't you get it?" Alonzo snarled as he turned around. "We're over Cali! If you want to be with Tugger THAT damn bad, he can have you!"
As Alonzo stalked off, Tugger came around the corner. "Did I hear right? Are you and Alonzo really over?" he said coming up behind Cali, with his usual swagger and a smirk on his face. Cali turned to Tugger. She looked at him for a moment, swallowed her shyness, and told him what she thought of him. "You are a low life creep, you know that Tugger? I can't BELIVE I fell for your "you're the only one for me." routine!" Tugger had fed her such a line, and she had fallen for it, hook, line and sinker. "Because of YOU Alonzo and I are broken up. But I'll tell you this." Cali said getting into his face. "Alonzo and I won't be over for long, we'll be back together, I know it." "Yeah, baby, and in the mean time, you can hang with me." Tugger said smugly. By this time Cali had had enough. She backed up, unsheathed her claws in her front left paw, reached back, and let Tugger have it across his face. "THERE!! Now those'll match the scar that Patchy gave you across your nose!" she yelled. Patchy, another Jellicle, had given Tugger a scar right across his nose earlier that year. Cali stalked off.
Cali went over to the pond. She saw Alonzo sitting at the edge, staring into it. She slowly walked over to him, crouching her calico body to the ground. "Hi Alonzo." she said tentively. Alonzo turned his head. "I don't want to talk to you." he said and started walking off. " 'Lonzo wait. Please let me explain." Cali said grabbing the tip of his tail between her teeth. Alonzo looked back. "Ok. Talk." he sighed and sat back down. "Well," said Cali sitting next to him. "first I wanna say I'm sorry. I never meant to hurt you at all."She cleared her throat. "I don't know what came over me. One minute all I can think about is you, and the next I'm with Tugger. But I told Tugger off." Alonzo gave her a look. "Your kidding!!" "Nope. Gave him some new scars too." Cali said and went on. "I love you Alonzo. I can only hope that you'll forgive me, and let us start over again." Alonzo stared at her for a full 5 minutes, which were the longest 5 minutes in Cali's life. "Well I SUPPOSE we can get back together. But you have to be good." he said sternly while trying to cover up a laugh. Cali pounced on him. "Well you have to be good too. No more evil kittyness." she said laughing. "Heavyside Layer perish the thought." replied Alonzo. They went back to the Junk Yard.
A few weeks later Cali and her brother and sisters were talking. "So you guys are ok?" asked Megera rolling on her back. "Yeah we're fine. I got something to tell you guys." said Cali. "What?" asked Mistica, her green and purple eyes glinting. "I'm pregnant. Me and Alonzo are gonna have kittens." The other cats jumped to their feet and yelled "WHAT?? We're gonna be aunts and Jazz's gonna be an uncle?" Cali nodded. "Yep. You should see Alonzo, he's SO happy. He started strutting around and stuff. Then I told him he was acting like Tugger, and he stopped. But he's so incredibly happy, I'll be surprised if the rest of the tribe doesn't know by now." The others smiled. The group got up and headed back to the yard. "Glad you're happy." said Megera. "Yeah, me too Meg. Me too." replied Cali.
The End.
