I'm back with yet another chapter of When Fantasy Becomes Reality. I'm glad to see I got three reviews. This chapter goes out to the three of you, and you get cookies.

AdiSagestar I'll try real hard to make sure that my character doesn't become a Sue. If she starts to become one, please let me know and I will try to fix it. As for Firefrorefiddle, who said I wasn't going to use him at some point?

Tumble Bandit Thank you for your nice comments. I really tried to keep them in character, and I guess it paid off. Here's the next chapter.

Anonymous Reviewer: You think it's interesting? Thank you.

Disclaimer: I don't own Cats or any of it's characters. I'm only playing dolls with them, because their more fun then dolls.

When Fantasy Becomes Reality

Chapter 2: Talise The Ocean Cat Part 1

"This story is one of a very unusual kind," Gus said, starting the story. "The cat this story is about is unlike any other. You see this story is about Talise the ocean cat."

Gasps arouse from the group of kittens, making the older cats smile. They never heard about the Ocean cat before, and never knew that a cat actually liked to be in water. They all clustered around the old toms feet, closer then they all were before. Their eyes focused on Gus, ears waiting to hear his story. This would be one they would surly never forget.

"Long ago before any of the jellicles here were living, maybe even before their parents were alive, their was a young kitten named Talise. She wasn't anything special, she could sing and dance like any normal jellicle. She wasn't that beautiful either. Her fur was brown with a few black stripes. Compared to the other kittens who were all orange, black, or white, she was just plain. The only thing that wasn't plain about her, was her love of the ocean. Unlike other cats, Talise loved water. Maybe it was because when she was still young, her human family took her to the beach. Or maybe she spent a lot of time near pools. No one is sure why she loved it so much. But she did, and that is where our story begins."

Talise looked both ways, making sure the coast was clear. If she was caught, she knew that she would get a ear full from the older cats. How many times had she been yelled at for her constant escape attempts? No other kitten had visited Old Naomi (the leader of the jellicles) as many times as she had, fifty two times to be exact. It was a record she was both proud and disappointed off.

"Wait a minute." Etcetera voice broke through Gus's, making the other kittens groan in annoyance. "How could she be proud and disappointed at the same time?"

"Cetty let him finish!" Victoria said, batting her friend in the head with her paw.

"Sorry."

Gus ignored the interruption, and continued with his story.

'It's now or never'

In a swift movement, Talise sprinted out from her hiding place toward the exit of the junkyard. It was only a few feet away, and with no one else there to stop her, Talise thought she would have a clean get away.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

She was just about to run through the exit, when a body jumped in front of hers. She collided with the body, sending her flying backwards. She landed with an ooff, pain shooting through her body. Whoever she had ran into was definitely strong.

"Trying to run away again?" a tom voice said.

Talise opened her eyes to see a black tom with silver strips, an unhappy look on his face. She inwardly groan because she knew she was in trouble now. He was the tribe protecter, and care taker of the kittens. A job he took as she would say to an unhealthyextreme that even the Everlasting Cat himself would find ridiculous.

"Come on Aderes," she wined. "Let me go. I promise to be back in time."

She was of course referring to the Jellicle Ball, the one time of the year when every jellicle cat got to together to sing and dance under the Jellicle moon, and one cat would get the chance to ascend to the Heaviside Layer, the most honorable honor a cat could get. It was Christmas to the cats, and they spent weeks preparing for all the events that would take place. The singing and dancing was enough to make any kitten, queen or tom, excited. But Talise was not one of them. She found singing and dancing fun to do at times, but not as fun as playing on the sandy beach. She would much rather spend the night there, then at the ball. In fact, she made many attempts to do just that, but all were foiled by Aderes.

Said tom shook hi head no at her request. "You know the rules."

Talise's ears dropped, knowing the rules prevented any kitten from leaving the junkyard this time of the year. It was a stupid rule in her opinion, but one she knew she would be forced to follow. She padded away leaving Aderes to stand by himself, to her favorite spot in the whole junkyard, an abandoned rocking chair. From there she could see the entire junkyard, and its inhabitants clearly. But that wasn't the best part. No. From that spot, she could see the ocean crashing against the beach. A sight that she often looked upon, when she could not go there herself. Curling up into a ball, she gazed upon the sight, imagining what it was like to be at the beach this late.

"Oy Tali!"

Her head snapped up at the familiar sound of her name. Two identical calico kittens (one princess and one tom) were scaling the junk pile to where she was located. Felicianna and Marcelino were their names, notorious twin burglars who were always in trouble, just like herself. Ever since the day the two were accepted into the tribe, the three had been nearly inseparable.

"Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer!"

Etcetera's voice broke the mood of the story once again, earning looks from her fellow kittens.

"They sound just like them two."

"You know she's right," Electra said.

"Yeah," Victoria not wanting to feel left out, decide to speak up. "And Aderes kinda sound like Munkustrap."

"Yeah! Yeah!" Etcetera was now bouncing on the balls of her paws, getting excited over the resemblance between the characters and the members of the tribes. "Think their related?"

The older cats groaned inwardly knowing it would be a long while before they would get back to the story, if they ever would. Jennyanydots noticed the position of the moon, and decided to inform the kittens it was getting late, and they needed sleep.

"But Jenny!" they all wined. "Were not tired!"

As if on cue, Jemima let out a yawn, closely followed by Tumblebrutus, and Electra. They knew they were tired but were not ready to go to bed yet.

"We haven't heard the end of the story yet," Pouncival tried.

"If you ask Gus maybe he'll tell it to you tomorrow night," Jellylourm said.

Six voices yelled out pleases, begging him to tell them the story tomorrow. He agreered, happy to know that they wanted to hear his stories so badly. There were cheers, followed by groans as Jenny lead them away to the den they all shared together. Anticipation hung in the air. They could not wait for what tomorrow night would bring them.

And that is the end of chapter two. It originally was going to be longer, but I decided to break it into two separate chapters because it was getting to long, and I was getting tired. It's after midnight here and I need sleep. So I hope you enjoyed this chapter, and please leave a review because they make my world go around.
