It was a rainey afternoon and the Rhythym gang were trying to pass the time as best they could. Stratfordson Beretta aka Stratty was the youngest of the gang. And being the yougest he was of course the first to get boerd out of his mind.

Meanwhile a very impatiet Addison slapped his tail on the dust floor of the gangs barn. He was stareing out of the minute crack in one of the boards stareing at the rain." Thats it! I command you to stop!" He yowled at the rain. His once spikey locks were now a frizzy mess.A light giggle came from behind him. BAM! Stratty had pounce onto his tail and knocked Addison off balence." What the heck Stratty!?" Snapped Addison. " I'm bored!" Whined the golden kitten. "Well amuse yourself with something other than my tail!" Said Addison. He looked out the small crack in the wall again." Dang it! I mean it stop!" he shouted at the sky.

 A laugh sound behind them. Addison spun around to see a black and white queen with red and white bandanas on." Speaking to the rain I see?" She Joked."Haha okay I get it. Sorry hon." he said nuzzleing the queen." yuck." mewled Stratty. " So what's up K?" Asked Addison to the black and white queen. " Nothin much but the next door ranches cows are laying down so looks like its gonna be a long rainey day." Said Baby-K.

"Aww but Im hungery!" Whined Stratty." Stratfordson I know your new to the gang and your young only 6 months old. But there are times in a feral cat's life where there are food shortages. And the rain is preventing us from leaveing the barn to hunt." Explained K. " Yeah runt so unless a mouse just so happens to scurry by your gonna have to wait ok." Said Addison who plopped down on a large wooden keg.

One of the gang members, a calico queen was up on a hay bale. She began to tap her tail rhythmically." Koko that's it!" Yelped K. "Whats it?" Asked Koko. " Thats the way we entertain ourselves." Said K bright eyed. Everyone looked at her clueless." Really? your kidding right?" Said K.She sighed." Music!" she shouted. "Ohh" said everyone. At that moment she just gave herself a facepalm.

Koko the Calico queen was the rap master and loved anything with a fast beat. She took the haybales strings and plucked them at a medium pace. Rosetta was a sandy queen with siamese roots. She always had an instrument at the barn nomatter what. She began strumming on her cello. Nuk always had his saxaphone ready and with him for any random jam session.Addison Went to some buckets and tapped out the beat and K started to sing.

This is an old song but I love it stratty.

Some times in our lives

We all have pain

We all have Sorrow

But if we are wise

We know that there's always tomorrow

~Lean on me

When your not strong

And I'll be your friend

I'll help you carry on

For it won't be long

Till I'm gonna need

Some body to lean on.

Baby K stepped back and Koko sang

Please Swallow you pride

If I have things that you need to borrow

For no one can fill those of your needs

That you won't let show

~ Lean on me

When your not strong

And I'll be your friend

I'll help you carry on

For it won't be long

Til I'm gonna need

Sombody to lean on

Then everyone began to sing with all their heart and soul

If there's a load that you have to bear

That you can't carry

I'm right up the road

And I'll share your load

If you just call me

And then little stratty stepped forward and just sang out

So just call on me brother,When you need a hand

We all need sombody to lean on

I just might have a problem that you'll understand

We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me when your not strong

And I'll bee your friend

Ill help you carry on

For it won't be long

Til I'm gonna need

Sombody to lean on.

When the song was over every one cheears and not to long after the Sun was out and it was about noon time.

"Wow K Where'd you hear that song?" Asked the gang members.

" My mom used to sing it to me when I was a kit. Its my favorite song." She answered. Addison walked over and licked her on the back of the ear. Stratty covered his eyes. And everyone laughed.

Meanwhile at the mansion.

A year had gone by and Duchess was now to old and fragile to leave the pilliow in the mistresses room. Her three kittens were now full grown adult cats and entertain the guest that came to the masions various parties and balls.

Berloiz still played piano, but instead of simple songs her could now play things like Mozart and Bach. Toulouse still painted but his globs of paint became flowers and now that was his muse. Marie was now a stuck up little brat who welcomed other important felines into they're home.

" I'm gonna go on a walk Marie." Said Berloiz with a yawn. A red satin bow on his neck. " Yeah whatever just be back before dark because that's when the ball starts." Shout Marie at her Brother. " yeah,yeah,yeah stop yowling already!" Screamed Berloiz.

And who else just so happened to be on a walk but Baby-k. As she crossed the road and turned the corner from the bakery the bumped into another cat."Ouch , uh sorry um..." She said Brushing herself off." Karie?" Said Berloiz. Baby-K's ears shot up and her eyes opened wide." How do you know my full name?!" She hissed." Karie. It's me Berloiz your cousin!" Said Berloiz exstatically.

"Berloiz I havent seen you scince I was a kitten what are you doing on the streets?!" Meowed K." Takeing a break Marie is annoying me to the point where I think Im looseing whiskeres because of stress." Said Berloiz rubbing his tender whiskers.

" Well you know thats why I left was because of Marie." Said Kei to her cousin.
