At the road trip embarkation point
[In a secret space below Navy Pier in Chicago a bunch of kitties have
assembled and are looking over a collection of motor homes and motorcycles, all of which have been tailored to kitty specifications. A slim tuxedo kitty addresses all of the other kitties.] Hello, everykitty! My name is Mikey Furface, and I'm the general manager of Purrvost Motor Coaches. We prepared all of these vehicles for your road trip, thanks to funding from the Cleopatra Silvercat Foundation. I'd like to show you all through the features of these vehicles, so that you can all pick where you'd like to ride. Let's start with the motor homes. If you'll climb inside with me, you'll see that the coach has a lot of windows, and all of the windows have either a kitty tree or a wide shelf with soft padding in front of it. Up above the driver's area is a little nook big enough to hold a dozen or so kitties, with it's own windows and cushions. On both sides of the coach we have a lot of kitty and doggy beds in multiple sizes, appropriate for anything from a single kitty to bunches of kitties. Here near the middle of the coach is the kitchen. We have a very large refrigerator, stocked with all sorts of wonderful foods provided by Fluffy Kitz Catering. We also have a microwave oven and a gas oven, and a kitchen teleporter designed to 'port fresh food from our deli kitchen. We also have digital screens all through the area, allowing passengers to watch TV, movies, or video cameras mounted on the front and rear of the coach. We also have intercoms that connect all of the vehicles together, so you can keep in touch with anybody you'd like. Here in the back is the storage area that makes this what the humans call a "toy hauler". But instead of just offering storage, all of the coaches parked here have a special piece of equipment installed back here. I don't really understand the theory behind how it works, but Miss Amelia designed something called a "teleporter boundary field array". Basically what it does is allow you to step into this back area from one coach, then step into any other coach. All of the back areas in all of the coaches essentially share one space. In fact, let me demonstrate. I'll open the door here and step into the back area. [Mikey raises a paw-held radio to his mouth and calls one of his technicians.] Louie, would you please go into coach number 5 and step into the back area? Thank you. [While the kitties watch, they see Louie appear in the back area beside Mikey, in spite of not seeing him walk through the doorway.] Thank you, Louie. You can go back to what you were doing. So kitties, you can use this as a party area shared by all the coaches, or just use it to move between coaches whole you're driving. Now up in the front, you'll see that we've replaced the human steering wheel with a kitty-sized wheel. But for those of you who would like a more efficient form of control, we also have a joy stick at the driver's position. Push forward to accelerate, pull back to slow down, press left to turn left, press right to turn right. It's really quite easy! And to make the trip even easier, all of these vehicles are equipped with autopilots. If you don't want to have to worry about driving, just turn on the autopilot and the coach will steer itself, maintain a safe speed, avoid traffic and hazards - basically do everything that is needed. And for those situation where you have to drive through heavy traffic and are worried about human drivers seeing a motor home driven by kitties, or even that seems to have no driver, we have a special camouflage system. Press this green button on the dash, and a mockup of a human driver inflates at the driver position. [Mikey presses the green button, which causes a loud hissing. A human figure inflates quickly, offering a passable imitation of a human driver.] When you no longer need the camo, just press the red button. [Mikey presses the red button and the dummy deflates and retracts.] |
