The Train car bounced over the tracks as it rolled on, past different terrains, past other cities and towns. It stopped only a few times, and only to let the people who were already on the train, off.
The last stop would be the one Alumina would get off of, and there it would be filled up again by even more people.
This trip was going to take several hours to get where her job would start.
Alumina was currently leaning against the window with her back, feet propped up on the seat next to her and arms crossed over her chest, a small bag settled in her lap. Her head resting against the window, eyes closed and breathing deeply as she began to dose off, now that the sun was starting to sink outside.
Her keys on her belt clinked together as the train moved, and not for the first time in her life, the Train car had been emptied from anyone but herself, so she was left alone in the sinking light.
Despite the unwanted fear she felt about falling asleep, she couldn't ignore how tired she was, and it seemed her body wouldn't let her forget it either. Her eyes opened once, trying to fight the weariness pulling at her eye-lids, but failed miserably as they fell again, and sleep began to wash over her mind.
One would think she might be unable to sleep on a Train, after what had happened to her while she had been on one. But honestly, trains did not bother her in the slightest despite the pain and horror that had become associated with them for her.
To her great relief, the dream about the Train Crash did not reappear, instead she was just plunged into the warm darkness, of a dreamless sleep.
No One POV
Shadow began to cover the entirety of the train car, as the sun sank all the way. The train never slowed, it continued along its course silently. Shadows crept in over the car slowly, until it was plunged into darkness as the sun disappeared behind the horizon, the red and orange light fading, the moon beginning to rise up into the darkening night sky.
A shimmer of gold lit up the dark train car as Loke appeared, sitting down in the seat across from Alumina, hands folded in his lap, and eyes closed. "Sorry its so late, Alumina. But-" Loke murmured, opening his eyes to look her way, when he stopped short upon seeing her asleep.
He sighed and shook his head a little. It hadn't gone unnoticed by him, on the few occasions he had showed up to check on her while she had been healing, and it had become apparent to him, that she was a lot more tired than she had been letting on.
He knew why too, she had been having nightmares, but when he questioned her about them, all he had gotten was the explanation of the train accident.
His heart ached for her about it, honestly he was just surprised that she had managed to seem so happy and cheery all this time. One would think something as traumatic as that... Would have left some sort of imprint on her.
He rest his chin in his folded hands and let his eyes close.
Alumina... Maybe you would feel better if you just... Let it all go...
He faintly wondered if Ursa knew about the accident Alumina had been in. Part of him knew that she was aware. How could she not be? Alumina and Ursa were clearly the best of friends, and he was fairly certain Ursa had been Alumina's possession at the time the wreck occurred.
