Old Deuteronomy

We ran through the streets and saw Munkstrap, I saw a love struck smile on Victoria's face when she saw him. I smiled to myself at the sight. "Where have you been?" Munkstrap immediately asked when he saw us. We notice Victoria still had the ring on her wrists. "Oh that's mine. Yet another trick that went wrong." Misto lied and took the ring and put it in his hat. I gave him a small small smile and turned back to Munkstrap. "You're just in time to see Old Deuteronomy." I tilted my head to the side in confusion. 'I'm sorry who?' "Who is Old Deuteronomy?" Asked Victoria. Munkstrap sang and walked a bit. " Old Deuteronomy's lived a long time she's a cat who has lived many lives in succession she was famous in proverb and famous in rhyme a long while before Queen Victoria's accession Old Deuteronomy's lived many lives no, I am tempted to say ninety nine and her numerous progeny prospers and thrives and the village is proud of her in decline at the sight of that placid and bland physiognomy when she sits in the sun on the vicarage wall oldest inhabitant croaks "Well of all things can it be really? Yes, no, oh, hi, oh my eye! My mind keeps wandering but I confess I believe it is Old Deuteronomy!"" I saw a figure emerge from the fog. It was a older female cat. "Well, of all things can it be really? Yes, no, hi, oh my eye! My mind keeps wandering, but I confess I believe it is Old Deuteronomy!" As she passed by other cats bowed down to her. "Well, of all things can it be really? Yes, no, hi, oh my eye! My mind keeps wandering but I confess I believe it is Old Deuteronomy! Well of all things, can it be really? Yes, no, hi, oh my eye!" All the cats including Victoria and I sang. Misto took me by the paw and gently moved me out of the way and Victoria followed. We all bowed down to her when she got close. Everyone sat I. a circle around her. Misto sat close to me which didn't make it easy to concentrate on Old Deuteronomy. " My legs may be tottery, I must go slow and be careful of Old Deuteronomy." She sang. "Jellicle cats meet once a year on the night we make the Jellicle choice and now the Jellicle leader is here. Jellicle cats can all rejoice ! Who will it be?" We all looked at each other anxiously as Old Deuteronomy moved up higher. "Jellicle cats come out tonight Jellicle cats come one come all for the Jellicle moon is shining bright," we all looked up at the moon. "Jellicles come to the Jellicle ball." She turned around and led us into a big building. It was huge on the inside with a lot of space. 'This is incredible.' I looked at the place in aw.
