It is a truth universally acknowledged that a twenty year old woman with a super human ability desires nothing more than to have a normal life. Whether or not this is indeed a truth has yet to be confirmed by such an individual. Kitty Pryde was one such individual. An outsider would look upon Miss Pryde and assume she was in want of very little. She was above average in almost every way. She had long dark hair and exquisite dark eyes. She was slender and rather short. She was also smarter than most. Added to all this was the fact that Miss Katherine Pryde was indeed a superhero. The world knew her by the alias of Shadowcat. She was one of a kind, a woman who could walk through walls. She lived at a school in New York with other who, like herself, were different… special. She had an extraordinary life and therefore could not possibly be in want of anything… Except Mr. Right.
Long ago, Kitty Pryde had established guidelines for the ideal man, with the assistance of a Miss Jane Austen. The bar had been set unbelievably high. Kitty had been fourteen when she had first been seduced by the words of Jane Austen. Pride and Prejudice was by fare her favorite book and her love for a fictional character, namely the one and only Mr. Darcy, had long ago slipped into the place in her heart that had been reserved for the one and only guy for her. Unfortunately her ever elusive Mr. Right was an idea she had all but given up on as she opened the worn copy of P&P for the umpteenth time. The man of her dreams had slid out of reality and into a pair of scandalously tight breeches. As she read the familiar words on the page before her, she never could have imagined how real that dream would soon be.
