[ The Traveler appears before you as you board your train, which appears to be a team-themed, sparse, and incredibly modern, like the inside of a commuter train. ]

Today's dream is the dream of a conductor, who, despite the worst befalling his world, endeavoured to make sure his train still ran on time. Death ravaged the land, the bloodied bodies of the fallen rising to claim the living as their prey. Decisions had to be made. He had rivals.

Did he save poor lost souls that were not on his schedule? Did he utterly crush his enemies, to assure supremacy and secure his own life? It doesn't matter. He died, in the end, along with his world.

And so to, shall you. Do you wish to attempt to avert the course of history? The story of the Undead Assault Upon The Locomotive Enthusiasts of The Year Two Thousand and Twelve is now yours, and yours alone.

Buckle up.

[ ALSO THIS BULLSHIT IS NOW BLARING OVER THE INTERCOMS ]

[ flame pushes the train back into place!

but...it immediately starts once it's back on the rails, moving away from him as the horde suddenly seems to speed up.

he's overtaken, and they take apart to descending on him, tearing him open and apart with their bare hands, in the slowest way possible. ]

[gandere]

[ Schooler knows she shouldn't be watching, but she forces herself to anyway.

... Might shove away any teammate who tries to do the same however. ]

[acemedium]

[Silently watching and shaking]

[Gonna try to put her hand on Schooler's back despite any shoving though]

[moderndaywhitemage]

[silent tears forever]

[gandere]

[ How does it keep ending up with just us three? ]

[moderndaywhitemage]

[I wish I knew ;;]

[acemedium]

[Squeezing your hand with her shaking one]

[moderndaywhitemage]

[;;;]

[acemedium]

It's a bad dream... We'll make it... We'll take care of him..

[gandere]

[ She was doing so good with keeping her composure, but between the death of the family as well as their newest teammate, she's starting to feel the pressure. ]

... Hey Eveningstar.

[acemedium]

[Gonna try to hold your hand, too]

Yeah...?

[gandere]

[ Grabbing her hand tightly and trying for Coco's with her other hand. ]

It's going to get a lot tougher from this point forth, I suspect, so let's try to get through this without any crazy sacrifices. These people are an illusion, but we have to win for Flame.

We have to hurry up and win so we can be there for him if he wakes up.

[acemedium]

I don't want to die again, Schooler... but one of you dying would be worse.

[Nodding, though] We have to win.

[gandere]

We're not going to die.

[ Squeeze. ] So get that stupid idea out of your head.

[acemedium]

[Gonna hug]

It's just a bad dream... We'll be alright. [They have to be alright]

[gandere]

[ Always with the hugging. ]

Yeah, it's just a bad dream. It'll be over soon, okay?

[acemedium]

[Only when trauma happens]

Y... yeah. We can do this.

[gandere]

[ Still feels so alien to her. ]

That's right.

[wingtamer]

[there's a point when he's attacked that he yelps loudly—but then he remembers that his team is there and damn if he's going to let them hear this.

so he bites his lip and covers his mouth and tries, tries not to make another noise.]
