You look up the path to see a very familiar person. Desperate to get out of Kiera's body, you quickly look straight back at her and click your fingers. Your vision immediately shifts to about 20 yards away, walking towards Kiera and her dog. You looked down to see the body of Kiera's best friend, and your crush, Sophie. "Nice." you mutter as you continue walking towards Kiera, taking long deep breaths - she must've been doing some sort of workout or something. "Oh, hey, Kiera!" you shout towards your former body.
"Sophie! How are you?" Kiera responds as she unties the dog from the bench.
"Yeah, out of breath." you reply and smile. "I'm on my way to the train station; I can't walk the rest of the way."
"Oh, nice. Well, I'm off home. Speak tomorrow at school!"
"Yep, see ya!" you shout back. "I'll try jogging to the station - after all, I have the body for it."
You arrive at the train station after about 10 minutes of jogging - if you did that as Simon you would've collapsed by the park gates. Upon taking your phone case off, you find a Metro card, and so you tap it on the barriers and walk towards the platform. "Oh! I could become the train driver! I've already been a bus driver, driving a train can't be that different." You stare at the driver as the train rolls down the platform, and then stare at your beautiful body, before clicking your fingers and watching your surroundings automatically change to a small cubicle, in the driver's body - she must've been about 38 years old. "Right, let's see how we go." you say out loud; no one's going to hear you. You push the accelerator to full and the train smoothly speeds up and curves into the tunnels. You effortlessly drive the train, taking in all of the safety features and making sure you didn't miss anyth-
"That was a red signal." you panicked. You pushed the big red button, which you assumed was the emergency brake, and felt your heart sink as you turn the corner to see another train. You click your right fingers out of panic and fly back to your own body.
ONE HOUR LATER
"Reports are coming in that 6 people have currently been found dead in a high-speed Metro collision near Stingley station, as a result of driver error. Emergency services arrived at the scene half an hour ago and are still rescuing people from the wreckage. Stood outside Stingley now is Alan Mouth to give more details on the incident...."
