after Tango and Krystalle left on their walk Gus slipped back into the den and began to putter about quite inordianately pleased. the pair were so good together, and while he had become rather fond of Krystalle in the short time the prospect of her having someone her own age gave him a warm happy feeling. humming to himself the old cat started warming the morning tea.

Merton had been in the healers den, he didn't even know how long now. All he knew was Tommy had taken him there as soon as they arrived and he remembered hitting the pillows and then Bam! darkness. Springing up, after getting some needed rest, he started babbling about aliens. Frazzled, he looked straight at the wall, catching his bearings. Chuckling nervously at the wall, he began to smooth his fur down. "Tommy?" He called out naturally.

Merton made a small yelp at an unfamiliar voice, and bolted out of the bed he slept in. His feet got tangled in the blankets and he took a dive down to the floor and in Gus' direction. It was not even a sort of graceful fall, as his limbs had flailed about on the way down.
His first thoughts had been, 'Who the heck was that elder tom? What did he do to me? Did he kill Tommy?', before he landed with an oomp!

Gus took a quick step backwards that made the just healing scratches on his inner thighs feel extreamely unpleasent! as his palsiead paws spasamed he dropped the cup of tea that he held. "WAAAA! you could have just said NO my boy!" the old cat sputtered. then he sat down , heart pounding, "are you all right?" he asked in a trembling voice.

The black-ginger tom was on the verge of panicking. His first glimpse around had told him Tommy wasn't around and he couldn't smell his best friend either. Aside from the lingering traces of him on his own body; though the scent was already fading.
What if that was the last time he'd ever smell Thomas?
Shakily, Merton got onto his feet, all his movements were jittery and twitchy. "You may have killed Tommy, but you don't have to kill me too. I won't drink your poison! I can be useful. Oh! Let me prove it." Seeing the cup of tea still there, Merton's babbling stopped with a girly yelp and instinctually knocked the tea out of Gus' paws.

Merton was still staring at the elder tom dumbly. "Wait, wait, wait!" He made big motions with his paws as though he were trying to rewind time itself. "So...the whole rescue from that crazy alien lab was not...a dream?" His mind was trying to catch up with his lips, not sure he wanted to believe that. Sure, he remembered a bunch of cats busting him out, and being with Tommy again, but well...it seemed like one of those too good to be true scenario's.

Jenny entered the healer's den and took a look around. The first thing she noticed that one of her somewhat critical patients from yesterday was missing. She saw Gus, obviously in conversation with a young tom, she didn't know. Jelly was nowhere to be seen.
Jenny closed her eyes and counted to ten inside her mind before she fixed her gaze on the old tom. He should be able to answer her questions most likely.
"Good morning, dears ... Gus? Did Jelly return yet? Why isn't Krystalle in her bed? With the wound she had yesterday, she should be still in far too much pain to be up and about. Or did our dear Feathertail ... "
Her voice somewhat dripped with sarcasm. Obviously Jenny hadn't forgiven the queen yet.
"deal with that as well, as she did yesterday with that poor tom .. what was his name again ... Tango?"
Then she turned her steel gaze towards Merton.
"And who is this young fella? I don't think I have ever seen him before in the junkyard."

the ears of the old time first perked happily at Jennys voice and then dipped low at her tone. Gus sighed. "no there has not been any word about Jelly yet, and yes she....on the brightside our young Tango and Krystalle are well on their way to makeing a love match! She and I removed ourselves for a bit to give them some...space. and when they left for a walk I returned." he said as he turned to Jennyanydots, then he geastured to Merton. "this young fellow was one of the rescuee's from last nights adventure, and was about to introduce himself...." he continued.

Old Anna entered the den after taking a quick look around for Scrapper & Pumpkin. The only scent for Jelly was old as well. dang, that wasn't good. Not seeing them she frowned a little then went inside following Jenny. She grinned at Gus, "Well, look what the cat coughed up. Good ta see ya old buzzard." Her eyes widened a bit when she saw Merton up & awake. "Hey look who's up! Murky isn't it?" at least that's what she thought the athletic one called him. Where was he anyway? Given how protective he'd been at the lab & the farmhouse, well, he likely hadn't gone far. the old gray cat wandered over smiling at Merton. "How ya doing kitten? Where's yer buddy?" She asked looking around. She also noticed Krystalle & Tango were gone. She tried to keep a smirk off her face as she noted that they had gone together, if her nose was working correctly.

Gus stepped back to the pot and poured more tea and offerd a cup to both Jenny and Anna. "you are looking well this morning, I am happy that you had a good beauty sleep," he said to Anna.
