Author's Notes- This fic is mine, the lyrics used are from the Lord of the Rings soundtrack. They're in Elvish and the English translation is underneath. The title is Elvish as well, and means "I desire." (That's also the name of the song.). Stuff in ~*~ is telepathic talk. Hope you enjoy and send comments to [email protected]
O mor herion i dhu
From darkness I understand the night
The starlight shone down on the Junkyard. It was the night of the Jellicle Ball and it was time for one of the kittens to become a Queen. The year before it had been Victoria. This year it was to be Jemima's turn, but who would she choose?
The small black, red and white kitten quietly stood up, her form illuminated by the stars and the moon. She silently looked at the available toms, as Munkustrap approached her to ask, "Do you know who you want?"
Jemima nodded. "Yes. If he'll have me."
Ely sieiar, el sila
dreams flow, a star shines
Munku moved aside and let her move into the group of cats to pick her chosen mate. Jem moved as silent as the wind, and stopped in front of Coricopat.
Cori looked up at her, slightly surprised that she would want him, surely, she would of wanted Tumble or Misto, or one of the others.
"Me? You want me to be your mate?"
"Yes." Jemima whispered.
Cori looked towards his sister Tantomile and she smiled and nodded her approval.
~*~She wants to be with you, and I know you want to be with her.~*~ she thought to him.
Cori smiled and stood up. "I would be honored to be your mate." he replied, taking her hand.
Ai! Aniron Undomiel
Ah! I desire Evenstar
The two moved to the center of the 'yard, and the star and moon light shined extra bright on the pair, as it always did with those who did the mating dance for the first time.
Cori gently brushed his head against Jemima's lower stomach and upper thigh. Jem pulled away, startled by the contact, but came back when she saw that he meant no harm, and presented her back. Coricopat smiled, running his hands down her back, delighting in the feel of her fur, and when Jem turned to face him, the two rubbed faces, breathing in each other's scent, becoming familiar with their mate's scent and feel.
Tiro! El eria e mor
Look! A star rises out of the darkness
"Mmmm. He smells like the wind, and magic." Jemima thought, breathing Cori in, and letting his essence settle around her like a cloak
Coricopat slowly breathed in Jemima-smiling when he picked up her thought- and realized what she reminded him of. "Sunshine and lavender."
Cori placed his hands on Jemima's hips, and she placed her over his, as he lifted her into the air, holding her upside down, her legs in a split. He slowly, to show to the tribe that this kitten was no longer a kitten, but now a Queen, and his mate, turned in a full circle. And then settled her on his left shoulder, their bodies back to back.
"Please don't drop me." Jemima prayed.
~*~I won't, promise.~*~ Cori thought to her.
I 'lir en el luitha uren
The song of the star enchants my heart
Jemima was surprised when he answered her, and then remembered that the twins were psychic. Her leg, not to mention her body, trembled in pleasure when he ran his hand down the outside of her right leg. Jemima stretched as much as she could, making the contact last as long as possible.
Cori took her off his shoulder and holding her gently in both arms, one wrapped around her small waist, the other around her left leg, and presented her to Munkustrap.
Munkustrap came close and delicately sniffed Jemima. After a moment he nodded his head in approval of the couple. Both Jemima and Cori smiled their thanks, and Cori lifted Jemima back up, turning her around in his embrace, and Jemima lithely curled her body around his. Coricopat readjusted his hold slightly, so she would be more comfortable, and gently deposited her onto Munku, who curled protectively around her.
Munku leaned close and whispered in her ear. "I wish you two the best of luck and happiness, so does your mother. Take care of each other."
"We will. Thank you Daddy." Jemima whispered back, as he uncurled himself from her and gave her back to Coricopat.
The three of them stood in the center of the yard, the whole tribe watching them, when Munku spoke.
"This kitten has chosen her mate and has been made a Queen. I have approved of it, and we have all witnessed it. Before we make it unbreakable, though, does anyone have any reason these two should not be together?"
No one spoke and they all shook their heads no.
"Well then, by the power invested in me as the Leader of the Jellicles, I pronounce you two mates. May you have a happy life together, and many after." Munkustrap finished.
Ai! Aniron�
Ah! I desire
The End
