Penny lies down on her bed and screams into the pillow. Why is Lisa more important than Penny? Because Penny is adopted or what? The thought has never struck her before that they are treated differently because of it, but now the whole situation with the cat felt so unfair, as if Penny's feelings did not matter.

A click is heard and the door opens.

"But please, just let me be!" says Penny as she turns to the door in the belief that it is her sister or mother. Instead, she sees Allergen sitting there.

"I apologize, Princess. I should have waited until we were alone. No one else can hear me."

"That's the problem," Penny mutter.

She glances at Allergen, which is getting closer. Penny sits up in bed and he jumps up and steps with his paws on the blanket.

"I'll lie down here for a while, if you don't mind," Allergen says and starts purring.

"What do you want from me, cat? And now I want to know what actually happened yesterday? "

Allergen looks at her seriously and takes a deep breath.

"I'm going to go straight to the point, it seems to be the best thing for you right now. The person who attacked you yesterday must have come from our world. I do not know exactly where from but evidently it is someone with evil intentions. "

"Our world ? What do you mean? And she said that it is you who has evil intentions , she said you want to hurt me!"

Allergen is noticeably hurt, he puts one paw against his chest.

"I'm hurt! And you believe what she said? Despite the condition I found you in? Do I have to remind you that you were tied up in steel? It took a lot of my magic to get rid of them and even though I succeeded, they had already damaged your wrists."

Penny bites her lower lip and frowns.

"Magic? What are you talking about? Magic is not real and why did she attack me at all? I have nothing with you or magic to do."

"If that's an attempt to accuse me of being abducted, I want to make it very clear to you that you were abducted whether we met or not. The only reason you're even alive is that we actually met and I could save you."

It feels like Pennys head has spun around a hundred times, the dizziness is palpable.

"I do not know who kidnapped you," Allergen continues , "The magic she uses is not something I have seen before. Did you hear anything?"

"No. Apart from the fact that you would be dangerous, I was only told that her name is Elena and that she does not work alone, a dark male voice was heard in the dark."

"Elena? Dark male voice you say? Hm. I guess we have to avoid them in the future, at least until you know how to control your magic."

Penny gets up from the bed. She has a hard time taking in everything, would the cat be magical? Penny too? and Elena? Are they all from the same world? More and more questions are popping up. Penny feels her legs start to shake, she sinks to the floor, where she sits in silence. Penny pulls up the sleeves of the sweater and looks at her wrists. I wonder how long I have to wear long sleeves to hide this? Allergen looks at her anxiously before breaking the silence.

"Let me see your wrists."

Penny first sits still and looks at him then she gets up and walks slowly to the bed again. What is he going to do now? It still feels like she can't trust him.

Allergen puts its paws on her hands. Heat spreads through her hands and up her arms and shoulders. The red marks around the wrists fade more and more every second and the pain in the arm decreases. The tense muscles in the neck soften and it no longer hurts. Penny looks at Allergen in surprise.

"Wait…. How did you do that? Wow!"

"This, Princess, is one of the properties of magic in the element of fire ," he says softly.

"So I'm a magical princess? And you're magical? From another world? " She asks to try to convince herself.

"Correct", Allergen answers shortly.

"And she who took me is magical?"

The allergen sits quietly for several seconds before it finally says something .

"All magic is not the same, it can come from so many different elements. Neither I nor your stone can master the magic that took you away."

Penny is silent. The meating with the girl had been uncomfortable. And why would she put Penny in handcuffs if she was good? Allergen still saved her. But how did he know where she was? Penny finally takes the courage to ask further .

"How could you find me when I disappeared?"

"Using Selidin."

The allergen goes to the head end of the bed, takes out the necklace under Penny's pillow and places it in the middle of the bed.

"My necklace, what has that got to do with anything?"

The allergen smiles at her and continues to tell:

"Selidin always finds its way back to you and your magic. Magic leaves traces. For generations, your ancestors have worn this jewel to produce their inner magic. Through it, you can control your magic."

"Like a lightning conductor?"

The allergen begins to purr and looks satisfied. Penny is skeptical. She picks up the necklace and hangs it around her neck. She's had the necklace since she found it in one of her mother's drawers and her mother gave it to her and told her that Penny was adopted. She has always liked to know the shape of it and it has become part of her identity as it always hangs around her neck. But would the stone be more than a piece of jewelry?

"You have a big task ahead of you. As Princess of the fire kingdom Tine, you have to take your responsibility," Allergen continues . "You have your necklace, the stone Selidin. With it you can transform."

Penny feels overwhelmed. First she meets a talking cat in the woods, then she is kidnapped and thrown in jail, the talking cat shows up at her house and says that she is a magical Princess from another world. He also claims that she can somehow transform with her necklace. Is she still hallucinating? Yes, it must still be part of the dream for magic and talking cats do not exist.

"You're a cat, you can not talk and there is no magic. This must be a dream and I'm going to wake up now," Penny says, pinching her arm.

Nothing happens and she frantically continues to pinch herself in the arm. In the end, she gets enough and extends her arm against Allergen .

"Bite me so I wake up!"

Allergen looks at her arm and then up at her face.

"Why would I do that, my Princess?"

Penny feels how difficult it is for her to breathe, she quickly leaves her room with Allergen behind.

Allergen , Lisa and Daniella watch as Penny puts on her outer shoes in the hallway.

"Are you going out? " Daniella asks.

"I need air. I'll be back for dinner," Penny replies.

"Where are you going?" Lisa asks, worrying.

"I do not know, somewhere." says Penny, opens the door and goes out.

Penny takes a deep breath when she comes out, she closes the door behind her. At a fast pace she starts walking. She digs in her pocket and fishes out her phone. She clicks on the contact list and selects Clara's number. She presses call.

Not many signals go before Clara answers, happy as always.

"Hey Penny!"

"Hi Clara! Do you have time to catch up? Like now?"

Penny walks towards the playground and meets Clara. She is happy that Clara could see her at such short notice, Penny really needed to come home for a while after everything that happened, her feelings of panic calmed down as soon as she saw Clara standing and waiting for her. Some children laugh and shout as they run around. Penny wishes life would be as easy as when she was a child.
