[Oh look! It's a forest! But it's kind of an odd forest. It seems almost like a forest out a fictional story... or a fictional world.

And even odder, there's Milagro just standing there, looking up at a tree curiously.]

[Even for Jaime, this is more than a little unusual. Pink trees? Really?
But Milagro's here. No matter how loudly his brain is screaming to get out NOW, he's an older brother, and, well...]

What're you doing here? Come on, runt, I don't like the looks of this place.

[...baby sisters are priority.]

[They may be priority, but really Jamie, you should just bolted when you had the chance...

Milagro turns, fixing him with an odd sort of gaze, a frown on her young features.]

Don't call me that.

Geez, sorry...I'm your brother, I'm obligated to call you names and stuff, but if you're gonna be so sensitive about it...

Anyway. Come on. Let's get out of here, really.

[Nothing wrong with this car! Nothing at all!

Except there seems to be a lot of wooden easily burnable fixtures around.

And an oil lamp sitting on one of the tables.

That's a tad odd, isn't it?]

[But, well, Ken's used to oil lamps and wooden structures. Just not seeing them on the train, which is about the only thing giving him pause.

He's a tidge uneasy around the open flame, but it's just a lamp, right?]

[Of course it is!

Except that now there's a black cat that's jumped up on the table, getting dangerously close to knocking that lamp off.]

[Of course, the cat causes him to sneeze--he's allergic, oh the irony?--before he holds out his hand, stepping forward.]

Get down!

[...didn't even think that you might startle it, Kenken?]

[Those odd city cars sure like to show up out of nowhere, don't they?

Not that it's a problem. It shouldn't be too hard to find a way out. After all there's doors everywhere.

Except there seems to be a bit of a commotion going on, a group of people gathered around something. Or rather some one.

There's an awful lot of blood on the ground, too...]

[his first instinct is to leave through one of the many doors in this particular car. he would've, too, even if he weren't on the train. getting involved with things like this was never good for him. and where were other people around to take care of things if anything bad happened.

..then again. curiosity did tempt the cat. seems to be tempting the shark, too. especially the blood.

so he's rolling closer, not too urgent. there's not many people that he personally knows on the train. what are the odds that one of them have been injured?]

[Even from there it's still a bit hard to tell who it is, but the people around sure are talking a lot. A woman shakes her head sadly.]

Poor boy...

[A younger guy looks a bit confused.]

What happened?

[and an older man answers.]

Some one shot him! Just came out of nowhere, fired, and ran off! Didn't stand a chance...

[shoot and run? pretty serious. where are the cops and paramedics? well, considering this is on a train, there probably aren't any of those, but.. nurses or doctors, at least?

definitely curious now he steps closer. might be pushing some of those people aside to make his way through the crowd, not even bothering with any 'sorry's or 'excuse me's.]

[Is the power on the fritz lately? There certainly seems to be a lot of pitch-black, absolutely dark, not a speck of light anywhere cars showing up.

The thing that sucks about darkness, though? It's really difficult for one to find their way out once they're in..."

[Indeed it is. Cecil hesitated at the inky darkness in the car, but he had to go through it to continue on, didn't he? There would be light on the other side. He just had to go straight through.

His wings mantled around his shoulders, showing his unease.]

[There would be, if there was an other side of it. The further in he goes, the more it seems like the darkness is just going to stretch on forever.]

[After leaving the car tailored to his own fear, Jaime comes across this car...and is on the opposite end that Cecil is on.]

Hello? [He raises his voice--this car seems to be significantly longer than most others.] Are you okay over there?

Flonne permanent_npc May 5 2010, 22:18:24 UTC
[Well this is a busy car! People all over the place! Maybe there's a party going on?

Only it might be kind of hard to ask, because it doesn't seem like anyone wants to speak to you, Flonne. Everyone here is doing a pretty good job of ignoring your presence.]

s-so late to this, orz... evoking_love May 10 2010, 21:03:32 UTC
[Who can resist a party? Not Flonne, that's for sure. Let's see what's going on. Someone has to know!]

Excuse me!

[When she gets no reply, she'll try again. And again. And again, until she notices that nobody is responding. At all. They won't even look at her.]

...H-hello...? Is something wrong? What's going on?

[They continue to ignore her, turning their backs whenever she approaches and moving away if she gets too insistent.]

[O...kay. Now that's weird. In fact, it's more than weird. It's downright rude!]

It's not very nice to ignore somebody! What's wrong with everybody all of a sudden...?

[She's not prepared to give up, though. Maybe it's just some sort of... practical joke! Yes, nothing but a silly joke, that's all. These people seem pretty serious, though.]

Will somebody please just tell me what's happening?
