"Oh god, it's in my eyes!" Mistoffelees complained, rubbing his eyes aggressively. Although it was very rare, there were occasionally warm days in the Jellicle junkyard, and Victoria, Misto and Jemaara often used these scarce opportunities to play by a small river on the outskirts of the junkyard. As the hot sun beat down on them, the three cats scooped up water from the river and threw it over each other. It was a game they had felt accustomed to play since early kittenhood, and it had become a kind of tradition.

Although it certainly didn't look it, the river they were playing by was rather deep, especially for a cat. Jemaara scooped up yet another pawful of water and threw it all over the black and white tuxedo tom, who took one look at his drenched fur and scooped up an equally large amount of water. Without any hesitation, Misto gave Jemaara a sweet smile and then let the water fall onto her. Jemaara looked slightly shocked for a moment, but then a wide grin spread across her face and she began to laugh.

It wasn't long before Misto joined in, and the two cats were laughing happily until Victoria dropped two balloons full of water onto each of their heads. Jemaara stared up at Victoria in awe. "You found balloons?!" She asked excitedly, and Victoria nodded. Jemaara squealed happily and followed Victoria to a torn packet of red balloons. She picked one up and then ran over to the water and filled it. She tied a quick knot on the end and then threw it at Victoria.

When it hit her, the balloon burst and soaked her. This kind of thing had been going on for way over an hour now, and eventually, after much more water related fights, they finally wore themselves out.

Jemaara led down in a sunny patch of grass by the water and closed her eyes. She let out a breath she didn't know she'd been holding before quickly stretching. "Hey, Jemaara." Jemaara sat up at the mention of her name and opened her eyes. Misto was smiling at her, a slight look of mischief dancing in his eyes. "What is it?" Jemaara asked, a smirk playing at her lips.

The tuxedo cat picked up a balloon from next to him and waved it around. "Yeah, a balloon." Jemaara said sarcastically, putting a thumbs up. Misto began to blow it up, then held the end tightly so that it wouldn't fly away. "I'll give you a camera I found if you can catch this." He said, pointing to a small camera a few feet away. "Does it work?" Jemaara enquired, slightly tempted. "Fully working." Mistoffelees assured her.

"Go on then. Yes." The young white queen with brown and ginger calico markings replied. Misto began to blow up the balloon, then stood up. Jemaara followed suit and stood up too. Misto held the balloon up above his head. "Ready?" He asked. "Yep." Jemaara said confidently. She saw Victoria snigger in the background, for some reason. "Alright then, go!" The tom said, then let go of the balloon.

It began to whirl around in the air, and Jemaara stepped back a bit. It was coming her way – This was just too easy. She took another step back and braced herself. That camera was as good as hers. It was so near now – Jemaara stepped backwards once more and jumped. It slipped through her paws. Jemaara cursed under her breath and turned round, her eyes only focused on the balloon.

Without really thinking, she jumped forward and clasped the now airless balloon in her paws. "Hey, I go-" She was cut off by the shock of water all around her. Misto wasn't worried, Jemaara had fallen into water plenty of times before. Only after about 10 seconds of being under the water and unable to get back up again, Jemaara began to panic. With a sudden surge of energy, she broke the surface of the water, gulping desperately at the summer air before falling back under again.
