Grizabella really missed the Jellicle Junkyard a lot. She really wanted to be accepted back into the Tribe. She knew that it was almost time for the annual Jellicle Ball, and all the Cats would be there. She could scence it. She was limping terribily, and she was sick. She had a really bad cough and head, and chest cold. She knew she needed medical attention. It was hard for her to breathe. She was walking to the Jellicle Junkyard, in hopes that someone would help her. She was only one block away, but she had to sit and rest, but knew she couldn't, not until she reached the Yard. Her right leg was hurting her so bad too. She couldn't withstand the pain much longer. She had gotten into a fight with a Pollicle dog, and was coming home. She prayed that someone would have compassion on her. As she limped home, she looked out for more Cats and dogs. But luckily she didn't encounter any. She walked into the Junkyard, slowly and cautiously. She was lucky. No one heard her come in, so she thought.
Tantomile was sitting straight up. She was watching her surroundings carefully. She saw Grizabella enter the Yard, and noticed her limping on her one leg. Tant looked around. Luckily there wasn't any other Jellicle around at that moment. She gently moved down from the Old Ford, and sat down on the ground of the Junkyard. She hated to see anyone in pain, but she also knew that Grizabella was banned from the Yard for leaving her fellow Jellicles behind. Tant watched Grizabella for another couple minutes, and noticed that not only was she hurt, but was sick as well. No one should be out sick on a day like this. It was starting to get really cold out, and it was the Fall season the Humans called Autumn. She looked around to make sure there wasn't another Jellicle in sight, then went inside her and Cori's den, and got her warmest sweater, and went back outside of the den, and spotted Grizabella. She walked slowly towards the other cat. Griz noticed that Tant was coming up to her, but didn't move away. At that time, she couldn't. Tantomile gently wrapped the sweater around Grizabella and helped her to the front of her den.
Mistoffelees was crawing out of his pipe, but stopped when he saw Tantomile, one of his best friends in the whole world, helping Grizabella. He was a little bit miffed that Tant could be helping Griz, someone that had walked out on the Tribe. He didn't do anything, at lease, not yet. He just watched. Tant didn't even know that Misto was in the Yard. He didn't move. He just watched.

Etecy came in the junkyard to see Grizabella there. A cat not yet met befor she want up to great her and give her a BIG welcoming hug.
Munkustrap look very evily at Gizabella. He soon saw her limp and wonder. He then ask him self WHAT IS SHE DOING BACK HERE?. He slowly moved to words her to she how she was holding up. She was his mother and all.
Rumpleteazer sat there yawning and doing cartweels. She soon saw Gizabella and blinked. She rembered her for when she was A very young kitten. She blink somethink was diffurnt.
Quaxo was playing with his little magic. Where he smelt a new sent in there air. He moved out as fast as he good to see how it was. He soon said somethink "Giz is that you?"he asked. He did not rember her at ALL.

Alonzo hurried to Etcetera and grabbed her around the waist before she could reach Grizabella. "No Etcy...she's not one of us anymore." He said calmly, keeping her held back. "And she isn't supposed to be here." He said, looking coldly at the old queen.

Coricopat slunk through the shadows and looked at Tantomile with Grizabella. His ears went down on his head and growl uttered low in his throat. His sulphur-colored eyes flashed in the shadows and all the fur on his back stuck up. It wasn't normal for him to be angry, but right now he was. What was Tantomile thinking? Grizabella was an outcast? And she was helping her? *Tantomile!* Coricopat's voice hissed through Tant's head in mind-speak. His tone was furious and when he stepped out of the shadows, he looked alot different than he normally did. The sleek fur on his entire body was fuzzed, his tail was sponged and slashing around dangerously behind him. His handsome, strongly angled face was contorted in fury and his large, conical shaped ears were pressed back flat against his skull. His hackles were raised, revealing his straight white teeth. He looked nothing like the normal, composed Coricopat most knew him to be. "What... are... you... doing?" The calico tom demanded from between his teeth. His eyes were narrowed dangerously onto the delapidated old queen beside his sister.
Rum Tum Tugger strutted from the shadows, the vivacious Bombalurina on his arm. Her paw ran up to his shoulder and one eyebrow on her elegant face when up at the sight of Coricopat. "What dead fuzzy beastie crawled into his rear?" She purred into Tugger's ear. The tall maned tom shrugged, grinning over at the calico tom. Coricopat glared at him, his tail giving a very irritated flick. "Ooookay then, stud! I'm not sure what's gotten into Mister Stuffy over there, but I'm sure it has something to do with that..." Tugger pointed over to Tantomile with Grizabella. Bombalurina sponged, her hackles going up as she hissed angrily at Griz. The scarlet queen detached herself from Tugger and walked up to Griz and Tant, ignoring the twin calico and stalking a circle around Griz. Turning her nose up, Bombalurina sniffed in distaste and growled in her throat. "Who dragged this sorry cat into the yard?" She said, walking back to the shadows, near to where Coricopat was.
Demeter crawled out of the shadows, her eyes darting around the clearing. They came to rest of Grizabella and Tantomile, locking onto the older queen. The gold and black queen edged closer, holding out her paw to the older queen. Bombalurina snarled, lauching herself from the sidelines right into Demeter's path. The black and gold queen froze, her fur sponging and eyes widening at the fright her friend gave her. Bombalurina cast a cold look over her shoulder and moved to Demeter's side. "You don't want to do that, girlfriend." She said, wrapping her arms around Demeter's shoulders and leading her over towards Munkustrap. Demeter lowered her eyes.

As Etcetera came out, and held her arms out to give Grizabella a big hug, she smiled, and reached out to hug her as well. But when Alonzo interviened, she was hurt. She felt so cold when Alonzo protected Etcetera from her. Even Munkustrap, her own son treated her as if she was an outcast, which at that time, she was. She felt so bad. She started to cough and wheeze. Tantomile felt bad for Grizabella. She gently put her right arm around Griz's sholders when they sat down. When the other Jellicles came over, and made Griz feel bad, and she started coughing and wheezing, she started to gently rub her back to comfort her. ((OOC: before Coricopat and company showed up, the above happened.)) Griz heard Quaxo and acknowledged him, but she sounded really hoarse.
While Tantomile was rubbing Grizabella's back for her, she noticed that Griz's leg was badly hurt. She needed some medicine for her wounds to her leg. "I'll be right back. Don't move," Tant said to her. She went into her den and found some medicine, and bandages so that she could clean her wounds. Tant came out and quickly but gently cleaned all the wounded areas. She gently wrapped Grizabella's soar leg. Then, she saw Coricopat, her beloved brother. Her eyes lit up when she saw him, but when Cori saw what Tant was doing, and with whome, she looked at Cori and said, "Hey Cori. I know what it looks like, but Grizabella is sick, and she's been wounded. She needed some help. Please don't be mad." She could tell by Cori's actions that he was furious with her right at that moment. Tantomile knew Cori's temper, and she knew that she wasn't supposed to have anything to do with Grizabella. Not after Griz abandoned the Tribe. Her hairs stood straight up as she looked at her brother. She wasn't surprised that Tugger, and Bomby acted the way they did, and when Demeter reached out to take Griz's hand, and Bomby blocked her, Griz smiled, and then looked hurt, once again. Tant wasn't even surprised at that.
Mistoffelees watched Tantomile, and he watched the others as they snubbed Grizabella. He felt bad for the older Queen, but he was relieved that Tantomile had the courage to help her, even though he knew Tantomile would be in trouble with her brother. Misto didn't come out of his pipe just yet. He didn't want to, not with Grizabella around. He just sat and watched, and listened.

Coricopat's fur went out in all directions as he stalked over to his sister. He glowered at Grizabella, and then grabbed Tantomile's arm. *I don't want you to help her. She doesn't deserve your help! She abandoned the tribe! How could you help someone who rejected the tribe that has her kittens in it? Her mate? How?!?* He demanded in furious mind-speak. The calico tom's grip on his sister's arm tightened a little and Coricopat pulled her against him. *Please, Tantomile... imagine what the others are thinking...* This time, Tantomile's twin's tone was pleading, but the grip on her arm was slightly painful. Coricopat's temper was a vile thing to rouse, and didn't go away too easily.
Rum Tum Tugger moved from his place in the shadow towards Grizabella. He was her son as well, but was only Munkustrap's half-brother. He knelt in front of her and looked into her face, his expression unreadable. "Why did you come back?" He asked, his voice tight and angry. "Why would you come back? You know you've caused us all this pain, and yet you think we should accept you?" Tugger's voice started to raise in volume, his tail twitching behind him. "Why would you try and make us want you again, even if you are sick? Tantomile, back off!" The Maine Coon tom said angrily, directing an dark look at the calico queen, and then turning back to his mother. "You know what you are? You're a taker, and you don't leave anything for others. You take what you need and leave what you don't want... is that why you left me? Didn't you want me? Didn't you want Munkustrap?" He demanded, tears started to form in the corners of his eyes. "I don't want you in the yard, and I'm sure others share my opinion. Why did you come back?" Tugger asked again, standing up to look down at Grizabella. In the background, Demeter's ears went back against her head and she looked at Griz sadly. Bombalurina sniffed again, holding Demeter against her.

Alonzo looked over at Tugger quite sadly. He'd never known his own mother but at least he hadn't had to watch her leave him for something bigger and better. "Learn your place, you old queen." He sneered at Griz. "And let me tell you, it is not here."

Grizabella was thankful that Tantomile had to courage to step up and help her, though she didn't have a chance to thank her yet. She planned to before she left. When Coricopat was hounding Tantomile about helping her, she started to cough and wheeze again, really bad. It made her feel even worse to see Cori fuss with Tant. She knew she wasn't welcome in the Junkyard. When Tugger came and said what he said to Griz, she was still coughing and wheezing, and having a little trouble breathing, but all she could say to him was, "But I...I," and started coughing even worse.
Tantomile wasn't surprised with her Brother's reaction to this situation. But he was hurting her arm. "Coricopat, let me go! You're hurting me," she replied to him. "You can't tell me what to do. Just because you're the oldest. Grizabella is really sick and needs someone's help. I'm the only one in the Tribe that will stand up for Griz. She needs to be here right now Cori. I can't just let her go. It's too cold. She needs me." Tantomile broke free of Coricopat's grip to go back and sit with Griz. She continued to rub Griz's back. 'Easy now Grizzy, easy." Anyway, Grizzy is a sweet cat. I know what she did was wrong, but that's in the past!" Tant offered Griz some water from her water bottle.
Mistoffelees couldn't believe what just happened. Tantomile was standing up for Grizabella. All that Tant said was true, but in the past, she always listened to Coricopat. They had that special bond that twins shared with each other. They have always been so close. Misto wondered what the twins' relationship would be like now that this had to happen. He still didn't come out of his pipe. He continued to watch.

Coricopat's eyes flashed with fury and his lips peeled back with a violent, snarling hiss. Winds started to whip violently around him, his sponged fur ruffling. His sulphur-colored eyes were glowing a faint gold, as were his paws. His black and white tail slashed around behind his knees angrily. "I do this for your own good Tantomile, and you throw it back in my face! I'm the elder, and I know what she did to this tribe! Many of the cats here reject her because she has caught hurt to the tribe, and you are helping her?" The winds picked up, ruffling fur of the cats around the angered warlock. His eyes were locked onto Grizabella's face and Coricopat snarled again. "You have poisoned my sister's mind, my dear old Grizabella..." He spoke in a quietly voice, speaking between his bared fangs. Tugger was staring at Coricopat, clearly unnerved by this odd show of power. Coricopat moved up to Tantomile, gazing deeply into her eyes. "You will not be connected anymore." With a paw of one of his paws, Coricopat made a gust of wind surround his sister. It was like a mini tornado around her, and then his forefinger came out; making a painful connection between him and his sister's forehead. He touched her between the eyes, and Coricopat's face went ashen. Stepping back, he broke the connection and looked down at the ground. All the winds died and his tail hung limply behind him.
Demeter moved quickly from Bombalurina's side, raising a complaint from the tall scarlet queen. The gold and black queen's wine-colored paws touched Coricopat's arm gently, and the warlock tom flinched. "C-c-cori?" She asked quietly, locking her gaze with his when Coricopat raised his eyes. "It is done... my connection is... broken." He said, breathing heavily and quickly. Demeter's eyes widened and she wrapped her arms around the calico tom. "We can no longer... communicate... telepathically." Cori's voice was tight as he regarded his twin. "I-it's only tem-temporary, r-right?" Demeter asked cautiously. The warlock nodded his head, not taking his eyes off of Tantomile until he turned and walked towards the shadows.
Tugger stepped up to Coricopat and touched his golden/blond paw to Coricopat's arm. The calico tom regarded the Maine Coon cooly, and Tugger side stepped; bowing his head respectfully to his friend. Rum Tum Tugger's eyes went back to Grizabella with a murderous look in them.

Ectecy hugged her arm just befor anyone could stop her. She smiled at her and rubbed her leg to try make it feel any better.
Munkustrap run to try and stop Ectey but to late. He pushed her off "She a out cast you can not do it now you going to turn like her lates get you to bed". He when turned around to Giz as if to say sorry.
Teazer looked at her and sighed. She want up to giz "I..I am so sorry".
Quaxo blinked at them she want over to alonzo "Who is this?"he asked him.

Alonzo looked at Quaxo. "Her name is Grizabella. She's Munkustrap's and Tugger's mother. She left them and her tribe behind, trying to find a better life. When she found out there wasn't one out there for her, she tried to come crawling back. She's a traitor to the tribe and a horrible mother to her children who loved her." He said, getting more upset as he spoke.
Pouncival crawled sleepily out of the pipe. He rubbed his eyes tiredly. "What's going on? What's all the fuss about?" He asked, yawning.

Grizabella backed up nearer to the door to Cori's and Tant's den and tried to get up when Cori was breaking their connection. She was coughing and wheezing really bad again as she tried to get up. It took her a while to get up on her feet, but with her leg hurting her really bad, she couldn't go and help Tantomile. When Coricopat had the mini tornato spin around Tant, it took her breath away, and it was even harder for her to breathe. All she could do was to lean on the door to their den and watch. She was really worried about Tantomile at the moment, but she was still coughing and wheezing so badly too. She really wanted to talk to Tant and tell her how sorry she was for coming back to the yard, and causing Cori to break their connection, but at that time, it was really getting harder and harder for Grizabella to breathe, still. She didn't look well, and now she didn't feel well eighter. She had been starting to get sick just a few days before. Why didn't she just stay away from the Junkyard? Maybe if she did, Coricopat and Tantomile would still be the best of friends, and there wouldn't be any fighting between them. She felt responcible for what has happened. She hoped things would be better between the Mystical Twins soon. When the wind died down to a full stip, Griz was still coughing and wheezing, and trying to catch her breath so that she could say something to the members of the Tribe that was there. It took her another couple minutes to calm down enough to say to Cori, "Tant was only trying to help me. Please don't condeme (sp) her just because she is being helpful to me right now. She loves you Coricopat. All of this is my falt." Then, she couldn't say anything more. Her voice went out. Her voice was so hoarse anyway, but when Cori made the mini cyclone, it was worse coming out. She started coughing again, really bad. "Please Cori, forgive her. She's doing a good thing to help me." She still couldn't move. Her chest was hurting, and she couldn't breathe. She felt so cold, sad, and really lonely adter that. All she could do was to stand beside the door.
Tantomile felt really bad, but she was also mad at Coricopat. When Cori broke the connection, she felt so lonely. She was really upset that Cori told her not to help Grizabella, and she got scared when Cori made the mini cyclone. She knew what Cori was doing. She tried to fight him at first, trying to keep connected to his thoughts, but she came to a point that she couldn't keep it. When she came out of the cyclone, she was crying. She had never felt so lonely as she did right now. It was like Cori was there, but something was missing. "How could you do that to me? I'm your sister!" she said to him. 'So I helped Grizabella. She needs to stay here to recover and I will help her recover." Then she looked at Munkustrap. "Munk, I can go to a safe place near the Junkyard to help Grizabella recover. I can't just not help her. Please don't change your feelings about me. Please let me go and help her recover."
"Oh no, this is bad." Misto said. Now he knew he REALLY didn't want to go out and talk. He wanted to curl up in a ball and go back to sleep again. He didn't like confritations, and he didn't like fighting. It's okay to play-fight, but this was real. He just continued to watch from his pipe. He didn't move. He couldn't. When Coricopa's mini cyclone arose, he hid his head into his arms. He couldn't look. He looked when it was over. But now, he wondered, what would happen?
OOC: I'm adding more to this post.
BIC: Grizabella saw that Tugger and Munkustrap were still there, along with the others that were there. She tried to reach out to them, letting them know that she still loved and cared about them so much. She tried walking on her soar leg, but it hurt her too much. Her right foot was unbarely painful, dispite the help Tantomile had given her. She could barely move. She tried speaking again, reaching out to her sons. "Munkustrap, Tugger, I do love you, and care about you, both of you, very much. Let me show you." Her voice went out again. But she was still reaching out to them, hoping that they would at least come over to her, and put their arms around her, if nothing else. She started coughing and wheezing again. She now was breathing funny, gasping for air. She couldn't talk anymore.
Tantomile went over to Grizabella and put her right arm around Griz's sholders. Grizabella was shaking and shivering more now then when she got to the Junkyard. She needed another warm sweater. She took Grizabella to where Tugger was, hoping that he would take her into his arms temperarily until she got back with another warm coat, and a couple blankets. 'Tugger, would you take your mom and hold her in your arms intil I get back please? It will only be for a couple minutes. I need a couple blankets, and a couple sweaters. I promice it wont be long." She waited for an answer before she left.
'Please Son, help me." Grizabella reached Tugger's arm, and touched his sholder, and tried to get close to him. She tried putting her head down on his chest, and nuzzle him. She motioned for Munkustrap to come to her too in hopes to get comfort from him.
Misto looked to see what was going on. He still didn't want to come out of his pipe. He definately did not want to be caught with Grizabella. He didn't hate her, but he also didn't like her eighter. After she left the Yard, everyone was talking about her, angry, including Misto. He really didn't want anything to do with anyone who walked out on the Tribe. He just continued to look, and watch.

Coricopat looked back at Tantomile with sad, empty eyes. There was a haunted look in them as well, but it turned to deadness when he looked at Grizabella. Without a word, the warlock tom melded into the shadows, his glowing eyes remaining in sight for a few seconds, and then disappearing.
Rum Tum Tugger snorted at Tantomile, distaste clear in his sneer. When Grizabella touched him, the Maine Coon tom jumped back and sponged as if she were the Dark Cat himself. "Don't... touch... me!" He snarled, his ears going back and fury marring his handsome features. Tugger 'wiped' his vest and shoulder; as if he was cleaning off his mother's touch. Tugger's brown eyes went up to Tantomile, this time with a look akin to hatred. "Get the blankets, Tantomile, but I'm not helping her. She should've been there for me and Munkustrap, but she wasn't! She didn't want us then, what makes you think she wants us now? She wants pity! She doesn't care about us!!!" Tugger's voice cracked, tears coming into his eyes. "There was a life here for her for awhile after she left. I thought she'd come back! I swore to Munkustrap and to even Old D. that she was just taking some time away. But she never came back. I lost all hope for her. I lost all my love and now she wants me to respect her love?" Wiping the back of his paw across his eyes and under his nose, Tugger sniffed. "I can't do it... this Tugger has nothing left for that." The maned tom motioned at Griz and turned, walking over to Bomba. The scarlet queen hissed angrily at Grizabella, wrapping her arms around Tugger and pressing his face against her shoulder.
"G-g-griz?" Demeter said softly, her eyes not lifted from the ground. She wasn't too far from the old queen, but her paws were outstretched. "I'll... I'll h-help y-y-you." She said meekly, taking another few steps. Bombalurina snarled, and Demeter's ears went back against her skull, but the gold and black queen kept going until her paws touched Grizabella's arm. Deme's eyes came up and she moved to put her arms around Grizabella's shoulders.

Munkustrap looked at her. He moved very close to her. He wanted to cry as a part of him want to say wellcome back but the other did not. "M..m...mom what happened to you?"he asked he was all most sick calling her mum. Yet it felt worm in side to call her mom. He then moved closer to her as much as he dared with was VERY close. His eyes started to feel with water and smiled at Giz. "Mom"he said he did not care what anyone though anymore he loved her. He throw his arms around her and gave her abig hug. Munku turned to tant and nodded "Yes i will".
Ecety smiled and run over to Tugger "are you ok?". She soon looked over at Munkustrap when he called Giz mum he mouth dropped open. She start to cry a little and soon stopped.
Quaxo smiled at Alonzo and nodded.

OOC: Finally going to try to jump in here..
BIC: Razzy was going to be a queen at this upcoming Ball. She had been watching everything going on. Her heart went out to the older queen who seemed to be known by many of the Tribe members. She had been hiding beind the automobile and had watched everything. She sighed at how they had been treating her the whole time. She hoped no one would ever treat her like that if she had come back like this old queen did. She would have come out of hiding if she hadn't been so scared to. She didn't like this one bit. That old queen looked really bad. She also looked like she could hardly walk, let alone stand. No one would ever listen to her, even if she had intervened. They would have told her to mind her own business. She could sence Misto on the other side of the Yard. She knew he was watching all this happening too. She would accept the old queen and help her, but knew that she would get into a lot of trouble for it. She sighed and just moved out from behind the car just a bit. Her dark brown eyes watched with sadness and wonder. She stayed very quiet.
Victoria remembered Grizabella vaguely. She had been really young the last time Grizabella was in the Yard. She saw Razzy watching Grizabella and the crowd around her. She could see that Razzy wanted was interested in her, but at the same time not too sure she should. She went over to Razzy and said, "Razzy, stay away from her. She's not worth it. She hurt Munkustrap and Tugger in the past and now she's probably back asking for their forgiveness."
"That's not fair though, Victoria," Razzy replied, "She doesn't look good at all. What if this is her last chance for forgiveness?"
Victoria said nothing more and stayed by Razzy to make sure that Razzy didn't rush over to Grizabella.

Alonzo shook his head at Demeter and gave Quaxo a pat on the shoulder before walking over to Tugger and Bomba. "Are you going to be alright man?" He asked quietly. "You wanna head out...you know, take a walk or something?"
Pounce cocked his head at the bedraggled old queen, not understanding. He shrugged and bounced over to Alonzo, carefully sidling up beside Bombalurina.

Grizabella was very hurt that Tugger wasn't helping her. Tears went down her cheeks. She couldn't talk anymore because her voice went completely out. She had what Humans called Larengitus. (sp) She was still trying to clear her throat so she could talk a little, but she was still coughing and wheezing really bad. Luckily Demeter reached out her hands to help her. Griz couldn't walk, or stand on her right leg at all. Her foot was hurting, and her leg where the cuts were, was also hurting. Her right leg just ached all over from top to bottum. Griz reached for Demeter's hands, but she was so unsteady when she tried to move. She wanted Demeter to come closer to her. Griz's face was red from coughing, and she still wasn't breathing very well at all. She was still so cold, and was still shivering and shaky.
''Tugger, this is your Mother, and you wont help her. You're so mean for not helping her. I would be glad to see her if she was my Mother, no matter what she did in the past, but that's just me. Munkustrap is going to help me, aren't you Munk?" Tant quickly went in and got some warm clothes, some blankets, and some warm sweaters.. She got a big bag and put everything inside the bag. Then she came right back out again. She wasn't pleased with Tugger, but she was proud of Demeter for standing up to help Grizabella with her. She saw that Demi and Griz were standing in the same place, in the same position. She smiled when Munkustrap took Griz into his arms. "At least someone else is standing up to help her," she said to Coricopat in her mind speak, but she remembered that he turned it off. "Yeah, that's right," she said out loud, "Cori turned mine off. I can't believe he did that." She was angry and very hurt that Cori could do that to her. Grizabella was still coughing, and not breathing well at all. Tantomile lightly touced Grizabella's sholder, and put her bag down. Tantomile gently rubbed Griz's back again. She hoped that Griz would be alright on time for the Ball. She wondered if Griz could still dance. She remembered Grizabella was an excellent singer with a first soprano voice, and Griz was also an excellent dancer when she was young. But that was a question that she would ask Griz later. "Lets go to that place just outside the Junkyard I was talking about now. Munk, you lead. Demi, can you get the bag full of sweaters and blankets? I will walk with Grizabella since I was the first one to see her. Munk, I need you to make sure we don't see Macavity anywhere. I can tell you which way to go. I know where it is, and it is a very safe place to be. Grizzy, can you walk?" She asked the old Queen softly.
Griz couldn't talk right at that moment because she was still coughing. She shook her head no. She pointed to Tantomile's bottled water.
'It's going to be alright, Grizzy. I will protect you." She saw Griz point to her water. Tant knew that her bottle was almost empty, and needed some more water. "Oh, the medicine. I have to go and get it. Munk, Demi, take Griz one more time. I'm going back to get my medicine." Tant gave Griz back to Munk and Demi, and went back inside her den to get all the medicine she had that was hers. She didn't dare take Coricopat's medicine after what happened between them. Then she came back out again, and took Grizabella gently into her arms and slowly tried to walk. It wasn't easy, because her leg was really hurting her so badly by this time. She was trying not to cry. Tantomile gave Griz what was left of the water.
Mistoffelees was still watching everything that was happening from his pipe. Part of him wanted to help, but what would Tugger think of him helping Griz? Tugger was Misto's best friend. He thought about that for a moment, and he decided that he should stay right where he was. She saw Razzy across the yard and smiled. He had a crush on her. He really liked her a lot. He closed his eyes for a few minutes. Maybe she would come over and they would go out for something when Griz left the yard.
Skimbleshanks was coming home to the Junkyard from his train, The Midnight Express. When he got to the Yard, he noticed a very familiar smell. "Grizabella's here," he said a little sharply. He remembered Grizabella very well. He didn't like it that Grizabella had walked out of the Yard, out on her family. He looked at the old Queen. He noticed that Grizabella was really sick, and he also noticed that she couldn't walk. "She probably had a fight with a Pollicle Dog again, or Macavity's back," he said to himself. He saw that Alonzo, and Pouncival was there, along with Griz, Tant, Munk, and Tugger. He wanted to go up to see if he could help, but even Skimble didn't want Tugger to get mad at him for helping. He could tell that Tugger had tears running down his face, and he knew why. Skimnle got along with Griz in their younger days, but when she left the yard, their friendship had changed. He didn't talk to her much after she left. She just looked at her when he was outside the Junkyard when their paths would cross. In a way, he felt for the older Queen.

Jemima had been watching from the sidelines, stunned. How could they, the Jellicles, be so cruel to her? She was harmless, completely and utterly harmless. All she wanted was to apologize for the past, repent, and they wouldn't even allow her to do that. She was hurting, and they were deepening her wounds. Even Coricopat, who she looked up to and admired so much, wouldn't even except her. Jem felt angry, pitying tears spring to her eyes, and so she came forward, without hesitation. Before anyone could stop her, she inched forward, curving into a graceful ark, her paw outstretched questioningly.
George sprang down from his seat on the old chair, scowling at the old hag of a cat. He wasn't sure what the deal was with her, but if Tugger and Alonzo and Munkus didn't like her, she was no friend of George's. He took a defensive stand next to Pouncival. "Scratch her," he whispered to his younger friend. "Go on scratch her. I dare you." No young tom could resist a dare.

Munku was VERY hurt that Giz did not care that he had accpeceted her. He turned his back on her "Tugger was always your fav kitten was he not". He sighed and got up.He then looked behide him at her. Munku smiled and helped her to sand up. He then smiled at her and lead her a little way. He then lead her on a old matturs(sp). "IS that ok mum?"he asked.

Griz cleared her throat the best she could so she could talk to Munk. "I love and care about both of you the same. I don't love eighter one of you more, or less than the other. But you should be paying more attention to Tantomile and what she is trying to tell you to do right now, but yes. This is fine for now. Thank you Tant, and thank you Munk. I can't walk anymore Tant, not right now." Grizabella was really happy that Munkustrap accepted her, and took her into his arms when he did, although she didn't show it at the time. She felt proud of Munkustrap that he could forgive her for all she did. She just didn't say anything about it because at the time, she couldn't. She was still coughing and wheezing, and not breathing very well at all, and at this time, she was still coughing wheezing, and not breathing well at all.
"Alright," said Tantomile. "We need to get the coughing and wheezing under control first before we can try moving you any farther. It sounds to me like you have what the Humans call bronchitus, and the wheezing sounds like what humans call asthma. Do you have an inhailer? I don't have one at all."
'Yes, I have one, but it's out of date, and I don't take it very often. I don't like to take it. But I do have asthma, and I have medicine to take for it. I have it with me." Griz hands the medicine to Tantomile. Tant hands Griz a cough drop, and she helps Griz take some cough medicine.
'Munkustrap, can you go to Jenny and make sure this gets filled? It's almost empty. Tell her what's going on, and tell her it's for Grizabella, and also tell her I am taking care of Griz."
