The road to hell is paved with good intentions. That´s a lyric Madonna sings with Justin Timberlake and is the song that is bombing loudly in the car, however, the energy of the song is easily being ignored in favour of the soft rain hitting the windshield kindly and paving the road with a more natural fashion.

The Prydes are moving to the city called, Fortress City, that has this name thanks to the natural fortress that the mountains provides or maybe, as young Kitty Pryde suspects, they didn´t think something clever fast enough. Cameron Pryde is excited to see the city, even under the rain, the man got a big promotion and said promotion prompts his family to move to this city.

“Fortresscity here we are” Cameron speaks to break the ice. Terry makes some quips about the city, trivia that she found thanks to the Internet, however, Kitty is more interested in looking at the pounds, maybe, is a dose of her imagination and the weather but she thought, for a moment, that the pond was the eye of a monster and that was more interesting than Fortress City.

“So what? Is still a lame city” Kitty Pryde with all her 14 years old of wisdom decides this place sucks and her attitude matches this.

“Kitty!” Terry exclaims clearly fed up with her daughter´s mood. “this is our new home now and you throwing tantrums won´t change that, you are a 14 years old girl…start acting like one”

“But I´m acting as one” Kitty mutters and Terry gives her that disapproving look, but, changes to something soft. “I know this is a big change, Kitty, but, don´t think this as a bad thing…think of that as a chance. A new adventure, can you do that?”

“Will try”

_______________________________

Their new house is bigger than the previous one and is somewhat close to the pound, and the rain continues to softly hit the Prydes, however, as Terry Pryde is starting to unload the packages Kitty run off to the front gate to see a small cat abandoned in a small box. She uses her umbrella to shield the cat from the rain.

The small cat with his orange yellowish fur look at Kitty with a surprising look on his face(Kitty has the proof he is a he when the cat rose from the box) and without any hesitation, takes the cat with her.

Cameron looks at Terry waiting for her final decision, the woman is not fond of cats and think dogs are better, but, if a cat is enough bribery to make Kitty happy with this change. Why not?

Besides, Terry has a hitch the cat won´t stay here for long…cats like to be free.
_______________________________________________

The house has 2 floors, a basement, an attic and 4 rooms and, of course, noisy neighbours. Miss Presley often smell like fish, thanks to her job(is her excuse) and is a woman far too attractive that seems to be a way to friendlier with Cameron Pryde. At the moment, Kitty is tending Jupiter, yes, she calls her cat Jupiter because is original.

The woman notices the cat that leaps from the kitchen site to Kitty´s lap and is looking at the woman intensely. Suddenly, Miss Presley has to leave and the cat looks back to Kitty with glee in his eyes as the cat escapes from Kitty meowing wanting Kitty to follow him.

Kitty gladly did so because she does not want to deal with grown-up talks, even Kitty can pick up this random woman is hitting on her father, her mother certainly did and this is not something she is happy about it.

“Jupiter?” Kitty asked until she sees her cat pointing to a small wooden door that seems to be on her size. The cat manages to open the door and mentions Kitty to follow her.

I never saw this door before…

But Kitty ended up following her cat. The door opens to a garden that looks like her home garden, except is not. The flowers are bigger, wild and really colourful.

“Kitty!” Jupiter is on the small wall of the garden with his trademark smile “There you are, took long enough, but, finally you here” the cat exclaimed happily.

“You…talk?!” Kitty speaks as she points at her cat. The cat rolls his eyes bemused by this predictable reaction. “Of course I can talk, Kitty, it was a shock knowing you humans can talk too…and I thought a human that can phase walls would be more understanding”

Kitty is taken back by this statement. “You saw?”

“Oh, Kitty, we can see everything, you may fool your parents for now, but, never us” Jupiter has a more friendly tone “besides, we are friends and friends don´t hide secrets from each other. I want to show you this place”

Kitty is not entirely sure this is real, but, one pinch on her shoulder was proof enough(for now) that this is happening. “Ok, and I´m here now with my talking cat…so, what is going on? what is this place? and I feel you want me to do something”

“Clever, yes, I need your help indeed, but let´s go by parts…this place here is a small portion of Dreamlands” Jupiter explained and waits as Kitty connects the dots.

“Wait, then this is not real, Dreamlands can only be found if you go to sleep” Kitty speaks and Jupiter chuckles amused “there are other ways to go here, Kitty, as you know there are many ways to escape from bullies”

What is my cat?

“You need help?” Kitty decides to ask this instead and the cat is happy to answer this.

“See, I have to find a key and this key is very important to my patron” Jupiter states and lower his head “but I´m not good with searching things”

“You are good in missing things, you really missed with my purple socks” Kitty states and the cat gives a crestfallen face “look I´ll help you with the key”

_________________________________

Jupiter takes on himself to explain the beauty of the “HERE” and Kitty has to admit this place is really cool. And Jupiter promises that if Kitty so wishes she can visit this place more times. IN the end, they spot the key and Jupiter has to give the key to an elder cat.

The cat, strangely enough, is looking at Kitty. “Thank you, for helping this one to find his key, Kitty, you have our gratitude” and the cats make a nice party in her honour, Kitty can´t say no when talking cats are throwing parties to you.

Meanwhile, the elder cat and Jupiter are talking. “Are you sure she’s the one? ” “She´s perfect for IT. The true Ying to his Yang”

______________________________

Kitty is back to her room, under comfy blankets and just shakes her head as she got the wildest dream. “Oh, Jupiter, I got such dream…you talk and we search for a key and party like there´s no tomorrow”

“Kitty…that wasn´t a dream…why you humans insist on thinking everything is a dream?”

Kitty would scream, either of fear and excitement, but, thinking something different. “Hey, for the sake of my sanity can you talk with my parents?” for a moment, Kitty was sure he would say no, instead, he leaves the room and she can see(once leaving the bed and room) he is going to the kitchen. In less than 2 minutes, she can hear her parents screaming.

“Ok, that convinces me 100%,” Kitty said and as she shapes the staircase(her feet phase some steps) her parents are in clear view to see Kitty now completely phasing the stairs and falling through the basement.

Mr and Mrs Pryde have lots and lots to talk right now.
