Pouncival glanced around the Junkyard to make sure no one there before he began, his mind spinning from the nights Ball's mating. The last thing he needed was to the other toms see what he was doing or worse Bomba the queen he had his on eye. When he was sure the coast was clear he began strutting around the junkyard imitating the strut that he had watch Tugger his biggest idol do all the time around the queens the night before The same strut he saw Bomba drool over. Even though he had been overjoyed that she chose him to mate with him at the Ball but that was as far as i got. "If that's what she likes then I gotta do that. I'll act the same way Tugger does and then I am sure to win her over fully." he said to himself with a grin. He was so happy he did back flip which he didn't land on his feet.

Oracle had been sneaking around the yard even though it was very ill advised. She couldn't help it though, she missed her brother,sure he was annoying and always around but not having him constantly around also was odd. Maybe he would be happy to see her,maybe he would introduce her to the others. She smiled a bit as she reached her destination. Of course she sat in a dark place as not to be seen. Soon she saw a Tom prancing around all fancy like. It was kinda funny,the more she watched....it kinda looked like he was imitating tugger,it was kinda funny.Then he preceded to flip and land on his face.That was hilarious,she had to try her hardest not to laugh at the Tom but seeing him sprawled against the floor like that. She ended up snickering to herself before it grew into a full out laugh fit.
well there was no way she could be unnoticed now so she decided to play it off normally. "You trying to impress someone,stud?" she teased while nuzzling herself around the corner. She had no idea why she called him"stud" but it seemed to fit the moment.
She gave a chuckle and sauntered over deciding to act casual,that was the best way not to be suspicious. He had no knowledge she was a hench and wouldn't act like one

Pounce's ears perked up as heard her laughter and groaned sheepishly as he pulled his face from the dirt. He turned to look at her, wiping the dirt from his face with the back of his paw. "You could say that." He looked at her curiously and maybe a little uneasy since what happened at the ball. "Who are you, by the way?" He had spent enough time climbing around on the stacks of garbage to know who everyone from above.

Oracle gave a little purr with a smile. She held out her paw to help him up. "I'm known by many names, but......you can call me as please or you could call me Oracle, choose wisely, it's not often I let others call me my actual name" she chuckled as she said so and kept a compassionate look about her.
The poor Tom was obviously trying to be someone he wasn't but whatever it was none of her business. "So which one of these queens caught your heart? " She asked curiously. She couldn't help but make conversation, it was her luck that she met someone who wasn't her brother. It made her happy, and it showed all over her face. Even though her smile was small her dark fur seemed luminescent and her green eyes shined as if they were smiling themselves. She was so happy to meet a Jellicle.

Pouncival let Oracle help him up but now he was even more sure she wasn't a Jellicle and maybe didn't belong there. He doubted that Munk or the other guardians would have allowed her roam free around the Junkyard after what took place at the Ball and had this nagging urge that he should just go find them but he had no clue where they were. That in his mind he was no longer some little wimpy kitten and after watching Quaxo who was the same age, get all this praise for bringing back Deut, maybe he could get some for aphrehending a possible Hench. He looked at the Queen, trying to hide his suspicion of her, so she wouldn't run away. "Oh she's a Queen I shared something with a the Ball but she's fancies another Tom. So I am gonna win her over by being him."

Oracle just blinked at him in response "uhm........if you think that's best" she answered before sitting on the floor and lightly grooming herself. "But, haven't you ever heard bout that being yourself thing. " she stopped to look at him "sure it might get you the girl but you constantly have to watch the other so you can be him, always have the paranoia of her being stolen because you're just being the clone. It doesn't sound like a happy life to me.......but whatever it's none of my business"

Uhura peered out from behind the wall of rubbish that was her temporary hiding-place. Her pelt prickled with irritation when she saw Oracle. Uhura had thought she'd seen the other queen heading this direction. Against her better judgment, she had decided to follow and prove herself wrong. Unfortunately she had proved herself right. How many kinds of an idiot was Oracle? Didn't she know that all of this foolery could result in her being captured by the Jellicles, punished by Macavity, or both? Uhura was beginning to wish she had never found out this imbecile was her sister. If they had not been related, Uhura wouldn't care a whit about leaving Oracle to get herself in trouble. Sadly, Uhura's family instincts were too strong for this sister who, for all she knew, was her only living relative; and now she felt the need to try and save Oracle from the situation. She knew what she'd have to do: pretend to be a Jellicle, as Oracle was doing, and get them both out of here as quickly as possible. She nearly gagged at the idea of behaving like one of those despicable dancing creatures. But there was nothing for it.
"Hello," she said, coming into view, a huge forced smile plastered on her face. "What's happening, friends?" Meanwhile she shot Oracle a glare that "could pin you to the wall, if eyes was daggers," as Cora used to say.

Pouncival laughed weakly. "I don't know bout just being myself, it's sure not won me over much with the others. I get the feeling the most think I am a clumsily dolt. Honestly I don't think she even knew I existed before the Ball." He didn't know why he was even telling this Hench all of this, maybe starved for attention. In any case it didn't matter because, he felt himself stiffing up as soon as the second unknown Queen approached. He knew he was in trouble, he could maybe apprehend one but not two! He glanced around quickly for anyone he could call over but saw no one. "Uh hey." He said trying to keep up some sort of composure but failing miserably.

Oracle reached out and pet whatever part of the tom's fur she could reach. " if the others don't like you for you then you just haven't met the right cats yet. When you find them they won't care if you are clumsy, dimwitted, or what ever quirks you have. Because when you are truly loved by others they love you just how you are. And I think you shouldn't have to pretend to be someone you are not to get a queen fawning over someone else. She'll never really love you that way, she only love what you are pretending to be. I think that one day a queen will be head over heels for you, and it would be just because you're you. " then seeing him stiffen she followed his gaze to see her sister. She swore being the youngest was the worst. She couldn't get away with anything. Why was her sister there anyway? Seeing Uhura walk over as well as the glare Oracle got the feeling that she should leave the yard fairly quickly. She then got up and bolted over to Uhura, hugging her. She gave her in a adorable yet affectionate nuzzle. " Oh,there you are! I completely forgot that we were supposed to meet up and go hang about the town. ......I'm late aren't I? " she asked with a apologetic head rub. "I'm sorry, but we should head out now before it gets too crowded" with that she linked her arm around her sister's. "We should really be going" she said then glanced back at the Tom "See ya later, and please remember what I said, if you aren't accepted for yourself you aren't loved by those around you. The only person you should have to be is the one you want to be, the one you was born as. I don't know your name but it's not it matters now, anyways. See ya " she then began to walk off (or try to) hoping that her sister would just follow along.

Uhura blinked in surprise. It was actually going to be this easy? She had envisioned having to stay here and keep up a pretense for at least a good half-hour; possibly being found out; and then high-tailing it out of here with the little Jellicle screaming for help. This was a pleasant surprise indeed. "Yes, let's be going," she agreed, making a tremendous effort to keep her tone light. "See you later, friend," she said to Pounce. She started to follow her sister...then almost collided with another queen.
Alyssa had been wandering around the junkyard aimlessly, bored beyond belief. Seeing a few cats gathered near the old car, she brightened considerably. Finally, people! She made a beeline for them, in her excitement almost running right over a pair of queens who seemed to be going somewhere. Peeking around them, she saw one of the young toms, though she couldn't quite remember his name...she was still relatively new here, and names were hard, but she thought it was something about jumping or pouncing... "Hey, Bounce!" she called to him, before turning back to Oracle and Uhura. "Aww, are you guys leaving?" She got between them and slung an arm around each. "You should stay and hang out! I don't even know you guys yet! Are you new? Nah, it's probably just that I'm too new to have met you yet. I'm Alyssa." She said all of this very quickly, at the same time attempting to drag the two queens back over to where Pounce was. She wanted them to all stay and find something fun to do.
"I...we..." Uhura sputtered. She shot another evil glare at Oracle. Now look what they had got into!
((couldn't resist... ^^))

Pounce blinked surprised at the Hench Queen, what she was saying actually made some since. Could he really imitate Tugger forever and honestly had he been when Bomba was up on him? He couldn't really remember, it seemed like a blur of just happiness to him. "Maybe you're right. Maybe I gotta try my own charm." He chuckled relaxing a little and was even more relieved when she decided to leave with her sister until Alyssa showed up. He just wanted to groan as she bounded up to him with Hench Queens in tow. she reminded him of Cettie but far more nieve, perhaps because she was so new to the Junkyard and it's dangers. "It's Pounce but hey, I think your new friends were just about to leave. They need to be getting back to where they came." The last bit of the sentence he frowned at the Queens knowingly, deciding it was time to show a little of his cards in a way to get them to leave quietly like they were.

Oracle was very fine to be on her merry way until another queen came and started babbling off about how they should stay. Noticing her sister pretty much froze up it was clear that she would have to handle this herself. She gave Alyssa a smile as the queen wrapped their arms around them. "Ello, Alyssa. It's very nice to meet you" She gave a friendly head rub to the excited queen. "I am sad to say that we really must be going,me and my dear sis made plans and really don't want to be late, but so you are not left with your questions unanswered. " she paused to take a breath "We are not offended that you didn't recognize us, for we are new too, just joined today actually, or" she lowered her ears and gave a sheepish smile with a faint blush "we were planning to once we found Old deuteronomy. Don't know where he is though. Any ways we then remembered that we made plans in the town and we are running late enough" Oracle herself found it amazing how she just pulled this story out of nowhere but being around tucker her story didn't feel like a lie, well deep down it wasn't a lie, not for Oracle at least. But all that aside they had to get out of here. "You may know my older brother Tucker, he told me about this place since I was a wee kit so I came to check it out and ran into pounce here, but as fun as it is to talk to we honestly cannot stay here any longer or else all of our plans will be ruined and have to be rescheduled, so if you don't mind. May this be goodbye for today? " She asked softly,glancing at Uhura to make sure she was keeping up with all of this. She gave a little purr as she head rubbed the new queen again and then ducked from under her arms grabbing her sister with her in a aim to finally leave "sorry to leave so soon, Alyssa, pounce" she said as she strolled in the opposite direction trying hard not to speed out of there.

((Aaand here come Munk and Lonzo to ruin the fun!))
Munkustrap could have kicked himself. A Pollicle attack, right in the Junkyard, and he hadn't been there. The fact that he had just gotten off patrol and was sleeping for the first time in almost twenty hours was no excuse... He rubbed his forehead in frustration and turned to Alonzo. "We need a stronger patrol. It was just luck that so many fighters were there." And two injuries, that was unacceptable. Especially Victoria. He'd have to talk with Quaxo, there was no reason for the white queen to be there.
"I'd bet an entire steak that Macavity is behind this." He spat the name like a curse. He'd been waiting for his uncle's retaliation since the Ball. But he knew that this wouldn't be the last of it. A Pollicle attack was kitten play for the Napoleon of crime. "I want somebody's eyes on the warehouse at all times. I want to know what he's-" He stopped in his tracks, reaching out to grab Alonzo before the black and white tom walked closer to the group of cats. Pouncival was there, and Alyssa as well, but there were two queens he didn't recognize. His fur bristled. It couldn't be a coincidence, so soon after a Pollicle attack.

Uhura breathed an inward sigh of relief. Her sister may have been an idiot for coming here, but at least she was clever enough to get them out. "Yes, sorry," she said hastily. "Must be going." She turned to follow her sister.
Outwardly, as the two toms walked along, Alonzo was nodding at everything Munkustrap said. Inwardly, he was alternating between berating himself for not having prevented the attack in the first place, and feeling awful for Munkustrap, who - as per usual - blamed himself. Suddenly, Munkustrap stopped Alonzo in his tracks, and the harlequin glanced around to see what the silver tabby was looking at: a group of cats, two of them strangers. Lowering his voice, he began, "What should we...", but that was as far as he got.
Alyssa pouted. "Come on, guys, you can't leave now. We just--" Suddenly she spotted the two toms standing a short distance from them. "Hey, it's Lonzo and, uh... Hunk...Munk-something. You should stay and meet them. Maybe they can take you to Old D! Hey, guys!" she hollered. "C'mon over! We've got some new friends!"
((let me know if you don't want them to be seen and I'll change it XD))

Had he been wrong? These two Queens weren't Henches trying to invade the Junkyard? Pounce was seriously doubting himself especially when Oracle mentioned Tucker. He didn't know him personally, but he had heard many of the older Toms talking about him and the Queens fawning over him. He was almost regarded as popular as Tugger, maybe a degree below. Pounce was about to mention this when he saw Munk and the look on his face. "Munkustrap." He knew just by the head protector's look on his face that Pounce had been right about these two, if anyone knew about new Jellicles, Munk would and these two were defiantly not. "I am glad to see you both, I have kept these two from causing trouble, hoping you would come apprehend them." Mostly the truth at least, but this was Pounce's chance at a little recognition.
