Part 2
�Where are you from?� asked Carbucketty, he scratched the back of his leg.

�Wot�s it to yeh?�

�Because if they all look like you, I�ll avoid it!� Madrigal couldn�t help it. Ignoring the pain in her leg, she leapt on top of Carbucketty and knocked him over then began wildly scratching his face. �LET GO, GET OFF ME!� he screamed but the fact that it hurt him made her do it all the more.

In the end it took the other two kittens and Jellylorum to pull Madrigal off Carbucketty. �What hell did you do that for!?� he shouted

�Don�t maike fun of me.� snarled Madrigal

�Now Madge I don�t know where you�re from but that�s not acceptable behaviour here.� said Jellylorum, trying to clam things down.

�I wonna go fer a walk.�

�Well I don�t think it�s a very good idea in your condition...�

�From what she just did, I think it�s a very good idea.� exclaimed Carbucketty, rubbing his face.

�Alright then, but only if someone goes with you.�

�We�ll go with her.� said Jemima. Madrigal really wanted to go on her own so she could talk to Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer. But having some Jellicals with me could make talking to them easier. However the kittens had other plans.



�That�s Alonzo, That�s Bombalurina and her sister Demeter.�

�That�s Victoria, she�s dead nice you�ll like her. Oh and that tom with her is Mr Mistoffelies and that one over there is The Rum Tum Tugger. TUGGER!� yelled Etcetera. The tom turned around and swaggered over to the three kittens with an overly confident smile on his face that Madrigal found sickening.

�Hey girls� He smiled causing Jemima and Etcetera to giggle with delight. �Who�s the new one?�

�Oh this is Madge.� Said Etcetera

�Me name�s Madrigal.� she said I�m not letting him call me Madge.

�Well hello sweetheart, where are you from?� Tugger tickled her chin and tried to drape his arm around Madrigal�s shoulder, but she stepped away.

�I aint no ones sweet �art an� wot�s it to yeh where I cam from?�

Seeing that Madrigal was not smitten with him, (though he couldn�t see why not) Tugger shrugged and turned his attention to the other two kittens, which gave Madrigal the perfect opportunity to sneak off and find Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer. 

                                                                                                

When she found them, they were lying on the broken car, talking to a ginger tom wearing a brown waistcoat.

�So wot time are yeh on duty tonoight Skimble?� said Mungojerrie

�Och the night mail ain�t running tonight laddy.�

�Great so can ya tell us wots been �appening on the train roicently then?� asked Rumpleteazer with an evil grin.

�Ay, well someone broke into the mail carriage and messed up all our letters, and without me noticing�� the thieving brother and sister burst out laughing. �It was you!� shouted the tom

�Yeh an� ya shoulda seen yeh faice when ya saw tha mess!� screamed Rumpleteazer.

��Ello Teaza, Jerrie� said Madrigal as she slowly edged towards them. �Well do I get ta meet ya friend or wot?�

�Madrigal this is Skimbleshanks, Skimble this is Madrigal.� Mumbled Mungojerrie.

��Ello� smiled Madrigal

�Hallo� nodded Skimble.

There was a long silence.
